C8 Chapter 8
Wang Mingxuan looked at Yang Ying and thought he had misheard him. But he saw the determination on Yang Ying's face and did not say what he wanted to say.
"Senior Brother Yang, if you want to participate, you must be careful during the competition. These few days, I will help you find out about the situation of the Trial Assembly!"
Yang Ying said to Wang Mingxuan, "Junior Brother Wang, do you know your senior brother who knows how to craft weapons? I want to change this sword. "
As he spoke, he pointed at the sword on the table.
"Senior Brother Yang, did you get this sword when you were at the entry-level? You should have replaced it a long time ago. Take a look at my sword!"
Wang Mingxuan handed the sword to Yang Ying. "I just changed my sword at the beginning of the year. I asked Senior Brother Zhao to forge it. It was a medium grade magic weapon called the Luochen. The sword had a Cold Abyss Stone, and it was extremely sharp!"
He drew his sword, and a cold light appeared. "It's not bad, right? Leave the matter of you changing your sword to me. I'll go and ask Senior Brother Zhao now."
After saying that, Wang Mingxuan ran out in a hurry. He suddenly stopped and turned around. "Senior Brother Yang, do you have any requests for the sword?"
Yang Ying was silent for two seconds. "Let me think about it! I want to use this sword to participate in the Trial Assembly in a month's time. It's best if it's sharper and sturdier! "
" Alright, then I'll be leaving first! " Wang Mingxuan did not wait for Yang Ying to say goodbye and left in a hurry.
Yang Ying walked back to the bed and said, "There is still one month left before the Trial Assembly starts! I need to at least reach the ninth level of the Qi Refinement, and it would be best if I can reach the tenth level of the Qi Refinement Perfection. This was a little difficult! Looks like I can only think of a way to stay in the Back Mountain for a little longer. In the future, I have to find a way to spend the night in Back Mountain!"
Yang Ying made up his mind and sat down cross-legged to meditate.
The next morning, Yang Ying finished his cultivation. After he received a mission in Mission Hall, he brought enough rations and headed towards Back Mountain.
The two senior brothers of Back Mountain were very familiar with Yang Ying. After greeting them, he walked towards the depths of Back Mountain. Currently, his main goal was to hunt those rank 5 demonic beasts in Back Mountain.
Demonic beasts were born with stronger bodies than humans, and it was very rare for cultivators to hunt demonic beasts of the same level.
Of course, the inner area of the Back Mountain was not something Yang Ying could step foot into.
It was rumored that the Back Mountain was connected to the hundred thousand mountains. The hundred thousand mountains was one of the five great danger zones here, and there were even terrifying Nascent Infant Demon Kings in it.
Yang Ying raised his sword and rushed forward. He saw those low level demon beasts on the way, and immediately used the Soaring Movement Arts. Low-level demon beasts usually didn't have time to react before they lost track of Yang Ying.
A moment later, Yang Ying arrived at the area where there were level 5 demon beasts. As usual, he searched for traces of demon beasts. He walked to a tree, squatted down, and observed the traces left by the beasts.
There should be a demon python nearby, but he didn't know what kind it was. Suddenly, he raised his head, and the long sword in his hand slashed through the air.
At this moment, there was nothing in the air. When the sword reached the highest point, a huge head suddenly appeared beside the sword.
It turned out to be a level six Black Cloud Python. It was spitting out snake tongues as it pounced towards Yang Ying from the tree trunk.
The Black Cloud Python was large and black. The long sword cut right across the Black Cloud Python's head, and a wisp of snake blood sprayed out.
The Black Cloud Python landed on the ground, and a loud sound was heard. Immediately after, it swept its snake tail, and with a twist, a huge force attacked.
Yang Ying did not panic at all. If Yang Ying had seen it a few days ago, he would definitely not have been able to do anything to it. This Black Cloud Python was a powerful rank 6 demon beast.
In these two days, Yang Ying's strength had improved greatly, and he was even more confident. He used the Soaring Movement Arts and flashed to the side of the python. At the same time, he used the Gale Fast Sword to cover the seven inches of the Black Cloud Python. After a while, the Black Cloud Python had died.
"Congratulations to Host for hunting a rank 6 demon beast - - Black Cloud Python, obtained 45 source energy!"
Yang Ying used his long sword to cut open the Black Cloud Python's stomach and took out the snake gall. His actions were done in one go.
When the sun set in the west, besides the Black Cloud Python, Yang Ying only found a total of four level five demon beasts.
He found a relatively thick tree and carefully examined its surroundings. He flew onto the tree and examined it thoroughly before taking out a small bottle from his backpack. He sprinkled some powder on the tree and under the tree.
This powder was a commonly used insect repellent in Qiming Continent. It could effectively expel poisonous insects, mice, and ants. It was a necessary medicine to spend the night in the wild.
After that, Yang Ying took out some dry food and started to eat.
The dry rations were dry and hard, but it was as if he was tasting a delicacy in the world.
As he ate, he summarized what he had gained today. A tier 6 Black Cloud Python contributed 45 points; 4 tier 5 beasts supplied 160 points.
Level six demon beasts were too little. He planned to continue searching for a day in the vicinity tomorrow. If there were still very few rank 6 beasts here, he would have to consider walking inside.
At dawn, a thin layer of mist rose in the forest. From time to time, the sound of insects could be heard, and there were faint beast roars in the distance.
Gradually, the sound of insects disappeared, and only the sound of the wind blowing through the forest could be heard.
At some point in time, a leopard had appeared on the ground in front of the tree. It moved silently. It was a Shadow Leopard.
Yang Ying was still sitting cross-legged on the tree trunk, as if he did not notice.
The Shadow Leopard stood in front of the tree and observed Yang Ying. It saw that Yang Ying did not move, so it jumped onto the tree trunk next to Yang Ying.
It jumped up and threw its sharp claws at Yang Ying.
Yang Ying's figure suddenly disappeared. Without knowing when, Yang Ying had already arrived above the Shadow Leopard's head. He held the long sword in his hand and stabbed it.
The moment the long sword was about to pierce it, it jumped to the side.
But it was too late. The sword cut open a wound on its head. The wound cut through one of its eyes.
The Shadow Leopard stood at the side, blood flowing from one of its eyes. It pounced once again, and Yang Ying flashed past. It raised its right claw and attacked again.
Yang Ying dodged again, and the Shadow Leopard's right claw scratched a piece of wood on the tree trunk.
Then, the Shadow Leopard swung its tail. The leopard tail whistled over with the sound of wind. Yang Ying moved to the upper right side of the Shadow Leopard and used the Gale Sword Arts. The Sword Qi slashed at the neck of the Shadow Leopard with a whistling sound.
The Shadow Leopard was unable to dodge in time and was struck by the sword. It immediately bled a lot.
Yang Ying once again stepped forward and struck again.
"Congratulations to Host for hunting a rank 6 demon beast Shadow Leopard. Obtained 45 points of origin power!"
Luckily, Yang Ying was alert and kept his sense of the outside world while meditating. Moreover, he had merged with the memories of the original owner of the body, so his sense of the outside world was much more sensitive than ordinary people.
In fact, when the Shadow Leopard was standing under the tree, Yang Ying had already sensed its arrival. At that time, he had just used the Soaring Movement Arts, leaving behind an afterimage on the spot.
Yang Ying packed his things and continued his life of hunting demon beasts.
