Those who have seen the map know that the wasteland in front of them is huge and does not belong to any country, because there are many powerful wild beasts in it, and no one lives in it at all.
Desolate beasts are actually a term for powerful beasts. Although they have a certain amount of intelligence, they are not considered spiritual beasts because this high-level beast does not absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to practice cultivation, but relies on its innate His talent constantly and automatically tempers his powerful body, and his body can become extremely powerful and terrifying.
There are countless types of desolate beasts. As long as they survive, they will continue to strengthen their bodies. It is said that high-level desolate beasts can even fight with masters in the golden elixir realm. This is because their bodies are too strong and they are not afraid of any monks at all. of spells.
According to the introduction in the book, wild beasts absorb a unique kind of wild energy in the wilderness to temper their bodies, just like monks use spiritual energy as energy. However, no one can explain what the wild energy is and how it can make them. The wild beast's body becomes stronger.
According to the in-depth exploration of ancient masters, it is estimated that the wild energy is actually a powerful alien energy that does not belong to any of the five elements of spiritual energy. Human monks do not seem to be able to absorb it directly, but quite a few beasts become transformed after absorbing it. It has become a wild beast, and its body will continue to strengthen itself.
Wild beasts generally do not leave the wasteland, because only in the wilderness can the wild air exist. Ordinary people who go deep into it for a long time will become insane due to the invasion of the wild air, making it difficult to control their madness. However, powerful monks do not This will be the case, but it will also be unable to stay in it for a long time because it cannot absorb the spiritual energy.
The comparison between wild beasts and spiritual beasts is roughly equivalent to the relationship between body builders and cultivators among humans. In fact, powerful martial arts practitioners can be comparable to cultivators, but the life span of warriors is much shorter.
Cultivation is to cultivate one's life, and martial arts is to strengthen the body. Of course, the life span of a warrior is longer than that of ordinary people, but it is not like a cultivator. Every breakthrough in a great realm will bring back the vitality, and the life span can be restored. Double the length.
There are all kinds of extremely dangerous situations in the wasteland, such as areas filled with poisonous gas, places where thunder and lightning never stop, volcanoes that erupt at any time, hot springs overflowing with lava, countless mountains, cliffs, and canyons. The extremely harsh living environment has created this place. The wild beasts that grow up are extremely powerful.
It is said that there are also spiritual beasts in the wilderness, but the wilderness beast is the leader of this area. It is said that a monk once entered the depths of it and saw a powerful beast that flattened a hill with one foot. .
In fact, the wasteland is also a paradise for adventurers. There are countless treasures in it waiting for those who are destined to find it, but most people only dare to stay in the edge areas and do not dare to go deep into it. It is said that the powerful beast king will directly kill any foreign intruders.
There were two reasons why the five people wanted to pass through the wasteland. One was to find various resources to break through to the Golden Core realm, and the other was to take this opportunity to raise their cultivation to the peak of foundation building.
The four of them have reached the ninth level of foundation building, and there is no way they can make further progress in seclusion. Only in a difficult environment can they make further progress.
There are no obvious boundaries in the wasteland, but senior monks who enter it can roughly know that there is a faint aura that envelopes the wasteland. This unique aura is not found in other places.
Knowing that they were about to enter the wilderness, the five of them used their respective spiritual consciousness to explore. Within dozens of miles, they found nothing but withered vegetation and endless loneliness.
Ye Xing's consciousness and five senses are extremely fine. While performing Qing Gong, he carefully compared the various smells in the air.
Suddenly, he felt a very light breath, and there was a trace of discomfort in his heart.
Ye Xing stopped and said, "It should be the breath of the wilderness. I have a slight feeling. I don't know if it is the breath of the wilderness. You should also feel it carefully."
The four of them also stopped, focused on sensing, and then shook their heads. Jin Qilang said, "Brother Ye's cultivation is higher than mine. There should be no mistake. This is the edge of the wasteland."
Ye Xing said, "From now on, everyone must listen to my command. It is said that only Golden Core monks can safely enter and exit it at will. Let's not be careless."
The four people nodded in agreement, and Ziying said, "Captain Ye has arranged everything."
Ye Xing looked up at the sky and said, "We still have a little time now. After going fifty miles, we should have entered the wilderness. We will find a suitable place to rest."
More than half an hour later, the five of them came to a small hill surrounded by only half-foot-high grass and scattered withered shrubs, and decided to stay here for one night.
On the grass, Ye Xing spread out the canvas he brought, which was very wide. The five of them sat down without ceremony, each took out food and water from their own space bags, and started their own dinner.
After the five people had eaten, they stopped talking, and then they all closed their eyes and sat in meditation to regulate their breathing. They were all cultivators of the ninth level of foundation building, so there was no need for any night watch.
In fact, although the five of them have become more and more familiar with each other during this period, they still don't know how to practice quietly. They are not yet at ease enough to practice here and now.
Ye Xing doesn't go into silence, he just adjusts his breath and mind, slowly dissipating the fatigue of the whole day. Of course, his way of practice is very different from others.
In fact, he can practice at any time and anywhere. Even when he is performing Qing Gong and marching, he can use Guocheng's spiritual consciousness to practice.
In the middle of the night, the five of them were attacked by several ugly little wild beasts that emerged from the ground. Of course, Ye Xing's little wild beasts did not take action. They were just innately high-level little wild beasts, so there was no need to take action.
He just regretted that he was a little careless and did not place a trace of monitoring consciousness underground. He never thought that the small wild beasts could sneak underground and attack. This shows that the intelligence of the wild beasts is actually very high. Of course, it is also possible that these small wild beasts would have been there long ago. Hidden underground.
The four people took action and quickly killed several small wild beasts, but they were also a little hasty. In fact, several extremely cunning little wild beasts came down from the ground to attack, so that the five people were not aware of them in advance, and they were too skinny. .
This unknown little wild beast has an extremely strong body and extremely hard bones. It is not damaged by ordinary swords. Its skin and blood still have a faint aura. It is the best material for making talismans. Speaking of which, apart from that sexy Apart from the strong smell, they are actually walking treasures.
Ye Xing set up a protective circle ten feet in radius and asked everyone to sit on the canvas. Then he took out a large pot and used a very sharp knife to peel off the animal's skin and remove all the internal organs. Only the meat was left and put in In the pot.
The four of them watched Ye Xing's movements. Without waiting for Ye Xing's instructions, Jin Qilang immediately swooped out. With a wave of his long knife, he quickly took back a large handful of dead branches.
Ye Xing poured the water into the pot, lit the fire, and began to cook the wild beast meat. Soon the large pot of wild beast meat began to boil, and the aroma slowly began to rise. The four of them had long since lost their appetite for food. , but this extremely rich aroma still made them salivate.
Ye Xing took out a few more tableware from the space bag and threw them to the four of them one by one. Then he scooped up some soup, first inhaled the aroma, and then took a sip. It tasted extremely delicious. I really didn't expect it. So delicious.
The four of them took the tableware from Ye Xing and waited for Ye Xing to taste it before coming over to eat. As soon as they ate, they couldn't stop eating. It was so delicious. The hardships of the previous dozens of days were like beggars, and now they have it. A little bit more human-like.
The five people grabbed the wild beast meat and divided it into their own bowls without any courtesy at all. Even Ziying ate a lot and half rolled up the veil covering her face.
After eating the delicious beast meat, Shen Shi also took out the wine and poured a glass for everyone. He took a sip first, with a satisfied expression on his face.
Bose ate and drooled, and said, "Brother Ye, you look rough, but I didn't expect you to be a master of cooking. You also carry all kinds of condiments with you. You really enjoy it. Now I realize that I used to sit there all day long." , it’s really stupid.”
Shen Shi said, "Brother Ye is also a master of formations. With a wave of his hand, he set up a protective formation. This is nothing. You are so good at enjoying life, which makes me feel that this trip is worthwhile. Eat some like this the next day." The delicacy is so delicious that my wait in this world is not worth it.”
Jin Qilang ate meat and drank heavily, and even hiccupped a little. He said in a sullen voice, "From now on, I will do whatever Brother Ye points out. It's just that Brother Ye, I have to make a delicious meal every few days." Yeah, I’m going to throw away those dry foods!”
Ziying was very polite when eating elephants. She sipped the soup carefully and sighed, "I haven't eaten meat for decades, and I broke the habit for some reason. I think it's necessary for Brother Ye to compensate for my losses. It's best every day." After some soup and water to moisturize me, I now look forward to living at home.”
Before Ziying finished speaking, the four men were already laughing.
