Chapter 387 Cultivation Improvement
As for the three major mountains of strange beasts in the Great Qi Kingdom, as his cultivation level increased and his knowledge grew, Qin Ziling became more and more wary of going deep into the mountains to hunt strange beasts.
This is not only because his combat power is extremely mismatched with his realm, but also because many of his methods are not visible to the public.
In the past, his cultivation was still low, and he only hunted ordinary beasts. Even if there were strong men in the mountains, they were unlikely to pay attention to him. But once he frequently entered the mountains to hunt fifth-grade mid-level beasts or even fifth-grade upper-level beasts, it would be difficult not to attract the attention of the strong men.
So later on, Qin Ziling never had the idea of entering the Mountain Range of Strange Beasts to search for and hunt the fifth-grade upper-level strange beasts.
In fact, the flesh and blood of the fifth-grade upper-level exotic beasts is absolutely a great tonic for warriors to cultivate their internal organs.
But it would be completely different if .
Qin Ziling doesn't need to be afraid of anything at all. On the contrary, he should worry about not being strong enough or his methods not being powerful enough!
“Hoo! Hoo!”
The winged tiger flapped its wings, stirring up gusts of wind and roaring across the valley.
Before the winged tiger flew over, it had already opened its mouth and roared at Qin Ziling. Then a wind blade rushed out of its mouth and cut towards Qin Ziling.
Seeing the winged tiger rushing towards him, Qin Ziling naturally would not waste time with it.
The soul in the Niwan Palace suddenly opened its eyes, and the Tai Chi halo behind its head rotated, shooting two rays of light, one black and one white, towards the winged tiger's head.
These two lights are invisible to the naked eye, but can be felt by the soul.
The fifth-grade upper-level exotic beast has extremely powerful blood and spirit, and its soul, blood and flesh are integrated into one, so it is naturally tough and indestructible.
But now Qin Ziling's soul has reached the realm of possession. It is difficult to destroy its soul, but it is still easy to shake its soul.
The Wing Tiger's eyes became dazed and terrified for a brief moment in the air.
But at this moment, Qin Ziling had already leaped up, and chopped at it with the Sky-Splitting Sword in his hand. At the same time, he released the four heads and pounced on the winged tiger.
"Ah!" The winged tiger suddenly woke up and roared to the sky.
But it was too late.
Four sharp claws fell on its back, and Qin Ziling's Sky-Splitting Sword had already chopped off its tiger head, directly breaking half of it.
The Wing Tiger is dead!
"Finally, I have a good harvest . Starting today, I can eat tiger meat and make tiger bone soup!" Qin Ziling was overjoyed when he saw that he had killed a fifth-grade upper-level exotic beast cleanly and efficiently.
With great joy, Qin Ziling began to look around and soon discovered a stream in the valley below.
Qin Ziling directly picked up the winged tiger with the Sky-Splitting Sword, jumped down, came to the river and started to deal with the winged tiger.
The fur of the winged tiger is a good thing. It can be taken back and tanned into leather armor, which must have strong defensive power. Its wings, claws, and tiger teeth are also good things.
Qin Ziling put them all away.
Its heart blood is mixed with bone marrow and refined into a portion of blood essence, which is kept for daily consumption.
After taking the necessary things, Qin Ziling cooked the meat and bones of the whole winged tiger, and also added some spiritual herbs picked in the wind and thunder barrier.
After cooking, Qin Ziling sealed most of it and stored it in several storage rings.
There's no way, this winged tiger is too huge.
So far, the largest storage ring he has obtained is only two or three cubic meters, which is too small to store everything, so he can only store them separately.
After storing most of the cooked tiger meat and tiger bones, Qin Ziling began to eat the meat and drink the soup in big mouthfuls.
The meat and bones of the fifth-grade upper-level exotic beasts are still very nutritious. After Qin Ziling eats a large pot of tiger meat and bone soup, the qi and blood in his body become particularly surging.
Qin Ziling took the opportunity to practice his skills to refine his internal organs, and found that the speed of refining his internal organs had obviously increased.
"Good, good. Even if we don't find the Lei Xun Stone, this trip will be worth it if we can kill a few more fifth-grade upper-level monsters." Qin Ziling felt that the speed of refining the internal organs had obviously increased, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
His internal refining has now reached a very advanced stage, and the speed has slowed down a lot, almost as slow as a turtle.
But today it started to speed up again, which gave Qin Ziling hope of refining the five major organs and becoming a grandmaster in the near future.
Once he becomes a grandmaster, his strength will inevitably improve qualitatively, and his ability to protect himself in the small barrier will be greatly enhanced.
The most important thing is that only after becoming a grandmaster can he truly begin to refine his marrow.
It is said that this is the place where the ancient white tiger and thunder dragon fought each other. With dense wind and thunder, it is the best place to comprehend the "Secret Method of Refining Marrow by Dragon and Tiger Thunder Sound".
If I miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find such a suitable place again in the future.
This is also a very important reason why Qin Ziling insisted on entering the wind and thunder barrier.
In the next few days, Qin Ziling ate fifth-grade upper-level tiger meat and bone soup and blood essence every day.
Qin Ziling's foundation was extremely solid, and he practiced three different ways at the same time, which also resulted in his ability to digest and absorb things being very strong.
In just five days, he actually finished eating the upper-level fifth-grade winged tiger, and he also used this opportunity to completely refine the spleen, lungs, and liver, becoming a master in martial arts. The only thing left to be refined was the heart.
The heart had been refined to about 70% when he entered the small barrier.
The heart is the most difficult part to train. The further you go in, the more it becomes like a bottomless pit. No matter how much energy, blood, and strength you put into it, it is like a drop in the ocean, and it is difficult to train even a small part.
After eating this fifth-grade upper-level winged tiger, Qin Ziling's heart was refined to about 78% in just five days.
Just one day after Qin Ziling finished eating the winged tiger, he encountered another fifth-grade upper-level exotic beast.
In such a vast area, they encountered two fifth-grade upper-level exotic beasts in succession within just a few days.
Only then did Qin Ziling truly understand why the area thousands of miles away from the entrance was designated as a restricted area. Over the long years, almost no one dared to go deep into it, and even if someone entered, almost no one could come out alive. It turned out that in addition to the more intense wind and thunder here, which made it easy for people to lose their lives, powerful strange beasts began to appear here.
If it weren't for his powerful soul and sharp five senses that would have allowed him to sense the onset of wind and thunder in advance, and if it weren't for his three fellow practitioners and the help of five golden corpses, his strength would have been comparable to that of a Xuan Master. With his luck of encountering two upper-grade fifth-level beasts in just a few days, he would probably have been reduced to ashes long ago.
How could it be like this now, not only is he alive and well, but he has also hunted down two fifth-grade upper-level exotic beasts for nourishment, and his strength is growing steadily and rapidly.
In a blink of an eye, it was already the tenth day since Qin Ziling entered the wind and thunder barrier.
During this period, Qin Ziling found four pieces of Lei Xun Stone as big as eggs and one piece of Lei Xun Stone as big as a goose egg.
The surface of the Leixun Stone looks a bit transparent, and you can see electric snakes dancing and wind blades flowing rapidly inside.
An egg-sized Leixun Stone only has three electric snakes and three wind blades, while a goose egg-sized Leixun Stone has six electric snakes and six wind blades.
On this day, Qin Ziling was more than 1,600 miles away from the entrance.
The wind here is so strong that solid wind blades can be seen everywhere. Once the thunder strikes, dense electric snakes will dance wildly, covering an area of nearly an acre.
"Crackle!" Qin Ziling was about to jump over a piece of gravel in front of him when suddenly dense lightning struck, covering an area of nearly a hundred acres.
Qin Ziling couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on his scalp when he saw this. If the lightning suddenly struck when he was halfway through the walk, even he would have no choice but to endure a few bolts of lightning.
Thunder and lightning come suddenly and go away suddenly.
Soon the thunder and lightning dissipated.
Many holes were blown out on the ground.
Qin Ziling was just about to leave when his eyes suddenly lit up and he fell straight to the middle of the ground that had been struck by lightning.
There was a big pit in the middle, and a piece of Leixun stone as big as a basketball was exposed in the pit.
There were many electric snakes flashing in the Leixun Stone. Sometimes, these electric snakes would gather together to form a dragon with horns on its head, a long beard, long claws on its body, and lightning all over its body.
In addition to many flashing electric snakes, there are also many wind blades flowing rapidly inside. When the electric snakes gather into a dragon, those wind blades will follow and form a tiger.
The dragon and the tiger were chasing and fighting in the Lei Xun Stone. There seemed to be faint sounds of dragon roars and tiger howls coming from inside. When the sound came out, the Lei Xun Stone and the earth pit where the Lei Xun Stone was located vibrated slightly.
Looking at this scene, Qin Ziling seemed to have caught something, but he couldn't understand it for a moment.
Qin Ziling knew that this should be related to his current realm. It was like he had clearly already glimpsed a glimpse of the secrets of Yin and Yang, life and death, but because of the limitations of his realm, he could only tear open such a tiny crack. At the same time, he was unable to use the Taoist methods of Yin and Yang, life and death.
But Qin Ziling was not in a hurry.
Anyway, such a large piece of Leixun Stone has fallen into his hands, and he will have plenty of time to slowly comprehend it in the future.
The most urgent task now is to improve our realm of cultivation.
Qin Ziling quickly put the basketball-sized Lei Xun stone into his storage ring, and then looked at the nearly 100 acres of bumpy ground in front of him, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"Could it be that most of the wind and thunder in this world are produced naturally, but some are caused by the Thunder Stone? The scale of the wind and thunder caused by the Thunder Stone may be relatively large."
Thinking of this, Qin Ziling ran to the top of a hill and looked far to the east.
There is an extremely majestic and huge mountain there.
The mountain seemed to hold up the eastern sky, and on the top of the mountain there were constant flashes of lightning day and night, giving people the feeling that it was the legendary Mountain of Thunder God.
Qin Ziling looked at the Thunder Mountain from afar, with a look of yearning and awe in his eyes.
If his inference is correct, then the huge mountain in the east where thunder and lightning continue day and night must contain a large number of Leixun stones.
But at the same time, that place would be extremely dangerous. If Qin Ziling went there with his current strength, he was 100% sure that he would never come back.
"My strength is still far from enough, I still need to eat a lot!" Qin Ziling quickly retracted his gaze and shifted his attention to the second fifth-grade upper-level exotic beast in the storage ring that he had not finished eating.
After finding a place and having a meal, Qin Ziling continued to work hard on his heart training.
In the next few days, Qin Ziling was no longer in a hurry to go deeper into the small barrier, but instead searched and practiced in an area one thousand six hundred miles away from the entrance, and advanced slowly.
This area was already quite dangerous for him. At one point he even sensed an extremely powerful aura rising into the sky dozens of miles away from his area.
The powerful aura made Qin Ziling feel a strong sense of crisis, so he decided to hold on a little longer and continue advancing after breaking through to the Grandmaster level.
