Fan Yi jumped back and forth in the dense forest hills.
After he punched away a striped tiger, he skillfully took out the dagger from his waist and dug out a black spiritual crystal from the hybrid beast's head.
And the moment the spirit crystal was obtained, it dissolved into a stream of spiritual energy at a speed visible to the naked eye, and poured into Fan Yi's abdomen.
When Fan Yi saw this scene, he felt extremely uncomfortable and complained:
"Master Dou, you are too thief. The spiritual crystal I finally obtained was absorbed by you before it was warmed up. Am I your resentment thug?"
The childish voice chuckled:
"Boy, you don't even have a Dantian Qi Palace, what do you need these spiritual crystals for? Besides, the spiritual crystals are the freshest when they are first taken out, and they taste great."
Fan Yi sat paralyzed next to the striped thorn tiger, scolding with a dark face:
"Don't you know better than anyone else whether there is a Dantian Qi Palace?"
Xiao Shengdou laughed dryly again and said:
"Stop complaining. Since I promised to pay you back in one year, I will never break my promise."
"Your martial arts practice is progressing too slowly."
"No! It should be said that there is no progress at all. I am still a little master of martial arts. When will I become a grand master? I am really worried for you!"
Fan Yi stood up from the ground, patted the dust on his clothes, and cursed:
"It's been seven or eight days since I entered the dense forest, and I haven't even encountered a hundred-year-old hybrid beast, let alone a monster. If I want to improve my cultivation, I have no opponent."
Xiao Shengdou replied:
"It's strange to say that I have traveled so far, how could I not sense the century-old hybrid beast?"
The sun is about to set.
Fan Yi started to prepare the food, and soon he built a fire and started roasting the meat of the striped thorn tiger.
Not long after.
Seeing that the animal meat was almost ready, Fan Yi had no appetite at all.
For seven or eight days in a row, I ate either striped spiny tigers or one-horned black-scaled pythons, which made me feel nauseated just by the smell.
However, Xiao Shengdou said that he did not know how lucky he was because the more meat he ate from these hybrid beasts, the stronger his body became.
How many warriors want to live such a life can only dream.
Fan Yi was noncommittal about this.
Anyway, every time after eating and drinking enough, you will feel a warm current flowing through your body, and any fatigue will disappear immediately.
Fan Yi wiped his mouth with his sleeve, then stood up and walked towards the depths of the mountains.
Martial arts practice is somewhat different from cultivation.
Only when he encounters a strong enemy and fights with his body can his potential be stimulated.
Therefore, Fan Yi has to continue to search for the century-old mixed beast in order to achieve the effect of improving his martial arts cultivation.
Walk all the way forward.
From a distance, I could see a ruined temple sitting on the river bank at the foot of the mountain.
Fan Yi felt curious and walked towards the ruined temple.
Not long after, people were already standing at the door of the temple.
It's just that this ruined temple is not big, just a two-story earthen building.
The temple door seemed to be in disrepair, and the two wooden doors creaked in the breeze.
If you listen to it for a long time, your teeth will become sore.
Fan Yi learned about it from the collection of books in the city lord's palace.
In several major states other than Qingyun State, there are still many ruling forces and orthodoxy.
For example, the imperial court, Buddhism, Taoism, etc.
These forces are somewhat similar to the one mountain, two sects and three small sects in Qingyun Prefecture, but they are more centralized.
Taoism and Buddhism, on the other hand, focus on cultivating the mind and mind, which are completely different from the imperial court.
The imperial court was able to rule one area by relying on laws and force. It liked to fight to expand the land, so that the people of the entire large state could become their subjects.
Fan Yi has always been curious.
Why is there no imperial court in Qingyun Prefecture, and there is no so-called Taoism and Buddhism.
In fact, Qingyun Prefecture is a remote place in the Netherworld.
Among the major states close to it, if any imperial court wants to set foot in this state, it cannot do so no matter what.
On the one hand, there is pressure from Ziyun Mountain and other sects.
On the other hand, the large and small cities in Qingyun Prefecture are too scattered, and they are often invaded by beasts or monsters.
If one is attached to a court today, it may cease to exist tomorrow.
As a result, no monarch is willing to invest national power in Qingyun State to form a new order.
Therefore, the autonomy of various cities in Qingyun Prefecture is particularly prominent.
The City Lord's Mansion is a ruling force, and most of the City Lords come from different immortal sects.
Fan Yi knew this was a temple from books and picture albums, which also aroused his curiosity.
After he pushed the door open and entered, he saw that the entire temple was covered with dense spider webs and countless dust was floating in the air.
There is a long and heavy offering table in the innermost part of the temple, and behind the offering table is a stone statue whose face cannot be seen clearly.
The stone statue had its hands clasped together and had several broken fingers.
Fan Yi walked to the stone statue, looked at it, and took out a wooden stick wrapped in oilcloth from the Fangcun Tiger Brand.
After lighting the oil cloth ball, the temple became much brighter.
On the left and right sides of the stone statue, there are two rows of human statues standing against the wall. However, just like the stone statue, the depicted features cannot be clearly seen.
Fan Yi learned the principles from the books, bowed to the stone statue, and said:
"I'm borrowing a treasure place for a night's rest, so please don't blame me!"
Fan Yi tied the torch to one leg of the altar table nearby, pulled over a broken wooden board, wiped it casually, and used it as a bed for sitting and sleeping.
He built a fire in the middle of the temple.
for a long time.
Night has fallen completely.
Beast roars can be heard from time to time outside the temple gate, but just by listening to the sound, you can tell that those hybrid beasts are far away from here.
Fan Yi had nothing to do, so he took out a book about the description of foreign objects from the Fang Cun Tiger brand, and read it with great interest.
Gradually, it started to rain in the sky.
First, raindrops as big as soybeans hit the tiles with a clanking sound.
At the end, the raindrops formed a series, as if water had opened from the sky and poured onto the earth.
Fan Yi didn't like how noisy it was, so he stood up to close the ajar temple door.
Fan Yi walked to the door and just closed the door.
Suddenly, a vicissitudes of old man's voice sounded from outside the door:
"It's raining so hard outside, can you let me go inside to take shelter?"
This voice startled Fan Yi, and he thought:
"There are countless monsters and beasts in the mountains, how can we meet a big living person? Could it be that monsters are causing trouble!"
But neither Xiao Shengdou nor Luo Panjing spoke, which meant that the other party was neither a hybrid beast nor a monster.
While pondering.
Fan Yi opened the door again.
A bald old man wearing rags and stooped back appeared in front of Fan Yi.
The man lowered his head and his palms looked like withered bodies.
Fan Yi frowned slightly, but still turned aside to let the man walk in.
Without waiting for Fan Yi to speak.
The old monk took the lead and said:
"My little friend has a bodhisattva heart, and the Buddha will definitely bless you."
Fan Yi didn't answer, and walked quickly to the wooden board. After sitting down, he picked up the book and started reading again.
It seemed that the presence of one more person in the temple had no effect on him, but in fact, deep down, he was even more confused.
It's just that Fan Yi didn't take the initiative to ask, just wait and see what happens.
