Jiang Nuer knocked Su You down with one palm, and then easily kicked Su You over and defeated him.
On the way to Tianhua City, this was the tenth time Su You challenged Jiang Nuer, and it was also the tenth time that he was easily defeated by Jiang Nuer.
The only difference is that he can hold on for longer and longer.
"Your progress is really obvious and rapid." Taking out a brocade handkerchief to wipe the sweat from Su You's forehead, Jiang Nuer chuckled and said, "The true fire of the sun and the true fire of the lunar yin have already merged with your body. It’s perfect, and the spiritual energy in my body is even more powerful. If I want to go further at this stage, I think all I have to do is improve the various techniques and secrets I have learned.”
Su You nodded, and after recovering for a while, he stood up and started his eleventh challenge to Jiang Nuer.
It's just that this time he chose to use the various skills and secrets he had mastered as much as possible.
Just practice all the way.
A full ten days have passed since leaving Tai'an City. Su You, who has launched a total of thirty challenges and lost all of them, has finally mastered all the secrets of the techniques he learned from the Xuantian Sect to the point of proficiency. Jiang Nuer, who had suppressed his state to the Yuan Dan state, was finally able to survive a stick of incense.
Yuan Dan, which originally had only a vague outline in his dantian, also became a bit more solid.
The eleventh day after leaving Tai'an City.
Su You and Jiang Nuer met the only town along the way that was comparable in size to Tai'an City.
Hui'an City.
Slightly different from Tai'an City, which is connected in all directions, Hui'an City is bordered by two large rivers on its north and south banks, and there is a continuous mountain range blocking it to the east. Only to the west is the vast plain connected to the Tai'an City pipeline.
However, it is precisely because Hui'an City is bordered by rivers on both sides that water transportation is very convenient and fast. At the same time, when monsters are rampant, the mountains to the east also provide the hunters in the city with a large amount of animal cores and elixirs. Therefore, Hui'an The prosperity and liveliness of the city are no worse than that of Tai'an City.
As soon as you walk into the city, you can see the crowds of passers-by and a dazzling array of shops on the streets.
As well as various small monsters that are kept in cages and sold as pets, and the flesh and blood of large monsters that are hunted, skinned, extracted and sold.
After finding an inn in the city to stay temporarily, Su You and Jiang Nuer planned to walk around the city first. Before they walked out of the inn, they saw a group of sergeants wearing armor and holding swords and guns with sad faces on the street. He led a large group of practitioners and rushed out of the city.
At the same time, even the faces of the guests who had just been sitting in the inn eating and drinking tea and chatting became ugly.
"Hey, waiter."
After finding a seat by the window and sitting down, Su You called the inn's waiter.
"Oh! What do you want, sir? Yesterday, the shop received a new batch of melon and fruit preserves and the best tea from Yuqian. The fish, shrimp and crabs in the river are also outstanding. They are all the signatures of our shop!"
When the waiter saw that Su You was wearing the robe of a second-grade alchemist, and the woman sitting next to him could tell that she was extremely beautiful even though her face was covered, he immediately knew that these two guests had a good background, so he naturally said in a respectful tone. : "The shop also has good drinks. I wonder what your guest would like to eat?"
"Please serve all the signature dishes in your store."
After expelling a high-grade spiritual stone, Su You did not rush to hand it over to the clerk. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and said to the clerk curiously: "As long as you can tell me why the sergeants and cultivators who just left Hui'an City were so anxious and panicked." , even the other guests in the inn expressed worries, the remaining money will be your tips later."
"Do you really mean what you said?" The waiter's eyes suddenly lit up. He had never seen such a proud guest.
Su You nodded immediately and responded: "A gentleman's words are hard to follow."
After hearing Su You's words, the waiter became even more excited. He actually brought a stool and sat in front of Su You. He said with a serious expression: "I guess the two guests are not locals, so they don't know the benefits of Ancheng." Although the mountains outside are rich in resources, those resources are also effective when used on monsters, so there have always been a few particularly powerful monsters emerging from the mountains."
"If you were just outside the mountains, you wouldn't be able to encounter those particularly powerful monsters. But in recent years, I don't know what happened. Those monsters that originally lived deep in the mountains actually started to appear in the outside. In the city, I don't know what happened. Many hunters have been seriously injured or even eaten by them."
"So not only to resist those powerful monsters, but also to investigate the situation of the monsters coming to the outside of the mountains. Our city often prevents sergeants and practitioners from going deep into the mountains to investigate."
"It's just that if it's like the situation just now, someone from Hui'an City should have encountered an accident in the mountains, and the sergeants and practitioners are rushing to rescue them."
At this point, the man opened his mouth and sighed: "But if we encounter those powerful monsters in the mountains, I'm afraid those people just now will never return..."
"That's a good answer. This high-grade spiritual stone is yours." Su You threw the spiritual stone directly to the man.
The waiter immediately accepted the spirit stone with a smile on his face, stood up and greeted: "Please wait a moment, sir. I will go to the kitchen to serve you a table of our signature dishes! You two, please wait."
After finishing speaking, the waiter happily went to arrange meals and drinks for Su You and Jiang Nuer.
It didn't take long.
Su You and Jiang Nuer, who were already full of wine and food, noticed the crowd gradually approaching from the far side of the street.
Each of these people looked very tired, and they all seemed to be quite injured.
When those people walked on the street in front of the inn window, Su You frowned slightly. He found that there were far fewer people coming back, and those who came back alive carried an extremely strong smell of blood from the monsters.
"Slave, what do you think?"
Since leaving Tai'an City, Jiang Nuer forced Su You to call him Nu'er to appear close to him. Su You didn't hesitate and asked Jiang Nuer, "Could it be those monsters that the guy mentioned just now?"
Jiang Nuer focused on the people who were drifting away for a while, then turned around and said to Su You: "Those people are stained with the blood of a snake-like monster, and the smell of blood makes me It’s very familiar, I’ve seen it in the treasure house of Tiandu Auction House.”
"If I sense it correctly, it should be the blood of a divine soul-level snake monster called the "Three Color Glaze Snake."
"Three-color glazed snake?" Su You was puzzled.
"It is indeed a three-color glazed snake." Jiang Nuer continued: "This kind of snake is extremely rare. It is named the three-colored glazed snake because its scales emit three colors. The snake gallbladder combined with the animal core is a The price of precious medicinal materials for refining elixirs is very high, so sometimes they can only be found in auction houses."
"However, another very significant characteristic of this snake is that as its cultivation level rises, the colors of its scales will change from three to five or even seven."
"But judging from the blood stained on those people, the one in the mountains outside Hui'an City is not a three-color glazed snake. It is most likely a seven-colored glazed snake that has evolved into five colors or even seven colors."
"If this is the case, the cultivation realm of that snake demon is at least the seventh level of the Divine Soul Realm, or it may be the Immaculate Realm. It is not something that ordinary people can compete with."
Su You suddenly realized it and was about to say something.
Jiang Nuer came closer to him and said softly: "Aren't you at the critical moment of breaking through the Yuan Dan realm? Why don't we go meet the snake demon for a while? Then take out its beast core snake gallbladder and use it to condense Yuan Dan. Dan.”
"Do you have a way to help us escape from the depths of the mountains after hunting an unsullied snake monster?" Su You asked in surprise.
"When the cold poisonous aura is activated, no one or monster in the realm of Nirvana will be my opponent."
Jiang Nuer, who knew what Su You wanted to say, immediately put her hand on Su You's lips, raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly: "If you are afraid that the cold poisonous breath will corrode my body, then make it up to me when you come back. .”
"Maybe one day I can break through to Nirvana?"
"So, it's settled! When it gets dark, we'll set out to find the snake demon."
After eating and drinking, we waited at the inn until nightfall.
Su You and Jiang Nuer took advantage of the dark clouds covering the moon above their heads, secretly left Hui'an City and headed towards the mountains to the east.
