After the two Affix are both permanent, Li Yuan is installed on the Nurturing Origin Technique.
As soon as the Affix of Qi-Blood Self-Generation was hung back, the familiar warmth surged throughout the body, slowly spreading from the Dantian to the limbs, and the flow of Qi and Blood was much more active than before.
During the lunch break, Li Yuan took out a piece of Iron-Horned Antelope hind leg meat from the storage bag, cut it into a pound and roasted it with Fire Control Art.
The meat is firm and chewy. After swallowing, a warm current rises in the abdomen and spreads slowly along the meridians.
The effect of Flame Marrow Body Nourishment comes into play, and the remaining Demon Power in Monster Meat is converted into Qi and Blood little by little, and penetrates into the muscles and bones.
After the repairs are completed, the team continues to advance in the direction of Loose Cultivator Market.
The further we walked, the less traces of Demon Beast were on the road. In the past two days, we could see paw prints, feces, or gnawed bones every hundred feet. Now, the gravel ground under our feet is clean.
Occasionally, you can see some older traces - broken bush branches, old scratches scratched by sharp claws on the stone surface - but they are all from a few days ago, nothing fresh.
Li Yuan glanced at the surrounding terrain.
There are Rogue Cultivator activities near Loose Cultivator Market. Where there are more Rogue Cultivator, there will naturally be less Demon Beast. This is normal.
Li Yuan continued to move forward, and the feedback on Spirit Detection Disk in hand changed.
Most of the Spiritual Qi fluctuations captured previously were turbid and scattered, which is the characteristic of Demon Beast. Now there are a few more convergent fluctuations faintly appearing on the market, if they are there or not.
monk.
And there's more than one share.
Li Yuan increases the size of Spiritual Qi Infusion from Spirit Detection Disk, and the sensing range is stretched to the limit.
Thirty feet ahead, there are a few solid masses of Spiritual Qi waves gathered together, but they are relatively weak, and are mixed with a few more turbid masses next to them - those are Demon Beast.
Li Yuan stepped forward and made a gesture towards Song Tiezhu.
The six people opened up their formation and advanced along both sides of the low slope.
The moment we climbed over the top of the slope, the scene ahead was revealed.
A dry shallow ditch cuts across the ground from south to north, with rubble all over the ditch bottom. Three Demon Beasts - two Iron-Spine Hyenas and one Grey-Spine Dragon Lizard - blocked a four-person Rogue Cultivator team between the ditch wall and a big rock.
Two Iron-Spine Hyena stood on the edge of the ditch, one on the left and the other on the right, pressing on the retreat on both sides of Rogue Cultivator. Grey-Spine Dragon Lizard squatted on the gravel pile directly in front, with its flat head leaning forward, its mouth open, and sticky saliva hanging from the corner of its mouth.
The three heads are all First-Order Mid-Grade, and Rogue Cultivator is clearly unable to hold on.
Four people huddled under the stone wall, one was half-kneeling on the ground, his right arm was drooped, and the blood from the cuff had soaked his entire forearm.
The other one was leaning against the stone wall, and his hands were still casting spells, but the spiritual light on his fingertips was intermittent, and it was obvious that his spiritual power was about to bottom out.
There were two remaining sword-holders blocking the front, and one of them had a crack on his sword.
Grey-Spine Dragon Lizard's mouth suddenly lit up with an earthy yellow aura.
Li Yuan didn't wait for it to spit out.
The soles of his feet exploded with flames, Fire Escape Technique was activated, and the whole person rushed straight down from the top of the slope. The Fireball in the palm of his hand was already pressed into shape.
Bang!
Red fire exploded on Grey-Spine Dragon Lizard's back. The thick gray scales were lifted off, and dark red blood immediately gushes out of the charred wound. Before Grey-Spine Dragon Lizard had time to spit out the earthy aura, his whole body was tilted forward by the blast, and his mouth slammed against the gravel.
The two hyenas turned their heads at the same time, baring their teeth and roaring at Li Yuan.
The one on the right was the first to pounce, digging its four claws into the ground at an extremely fast speed.
Li Yuan turned his wrist and Fire Arrow Technique let go.
sneer.
The line of fire went straight through the hyena's front legs, burning off a section of tendon. The front half of the hyena's body collapsed, its hooves clawed wildly, and it rolled over a foot away.
Song Tiezhu had already cut in from the left wing, and the broad knife struck the side of the other hyena's neck. The blade cut between the mane and the flesh, and dark blood gushes out.
Han Xiaoyi and Tian Qi surrounded the hyena from behind, blocking the hyena's retreat.
The Grey-Spine Dragon Lizard was so blown that it couldn't turn over for a moment, its belly was in the air, and its four legs were kicking wildly. Li Yuan didn't give it a chance to recover, and the second Fireball hit directly into the gap in the overturned plastron.
Boom.
The gravel splashed, and the body of the dragon lizard suddenly arched up, and then fell heavily. Its limbs twitched a few times and then stopped moving.
The hyena on the right, which had lost its front legs, was dragging itself out. Zhao An went around behind it and stabbed it in the back with a spear.
Song Tiezhu also withdrew his hand, the blood on the knife was dripping down, and the hyena at his feet had already lay down motionless.
Less than thirty breaths before and after.
The four Rogue Cultivators under the ditch wall stared blankly at this side, unable to react for a long time.
The leader was a man in his early thirties, with a dusty face and a short, messy beard on his chin. The coarse cloth robe on his body was torn in several places, and there was a blood-soaked cloth strip hanging on his shoulder.
He swallowed and put down the broken sword in his hand.
"Many... thank you for your help."
His voice was hoarse, and his throat seemed dry since he hadn't drank water for a long time.
The man with the injured right arm also raised his head. He was young, in his mid-twenties, and his face was pale. When he saw the waistband Li Yuan, his eyes lit up.
"Are you from Qinghe Market?"
Li Yuan nodded, without saying much, and glanced at the injuries of several people.
The injury on the leader's shoulder was not deep, but the injury on the right arm was more serious. The entire forearm was crooked and 80% of the bones were broken.
The one who was leaning against the stone wall had lost his spiritual power but had no external injuries. The one who was holding the split sword was scratched on his left rib by something, and the bleeding had stopped.
"Treat the injury first." Li Yuan raised his chin towards Xu Qing.
Xu Qing took out the medicinal powder and cloth strips from his arms, squatted next to Rogue Cultivator's injured right arm and began to bandage it.
The leader Rogue Cultivator took a breath and sat on a rock, his legs still trembling.
"My name is Ma Yuan, Loose Cultivator Market over there. These two came out together."
He pointed at the three people behind him.
"We came from Fangshi."
Li Yuan squatted on a stone and looked at him.
"What's going on in Fangshi now?"
Ma Yuan wiped the dust from his face and was still out of breath while speaking.
"The market has not collapsed, and the people from Steward are still there. But it has not collapsed, and it is very chaotic inside."
He raised his hand and pointed to the southeast.
"Several Steward monks each have their own plans. Some think that someone from the Yuanyang Sect will come, and they are still holding on. Some have contacted other forces and plan to transfer their shops and territory. Others are waiting and watching, and will follow whoever comes."
"What forces have been contacted?"
Ma Yuan shook his head, "I don't know the specifics. Anyway, those Steward's are not very good at dealing with each other."
Rogue Cultivator, who was leaning against the stone wall, took a deep breath and added, "The most terrible thing is that there is no supplies. No one is coming and going, Medicinal Pill Talisman is about to bottom out, and the guards cannot be organized at all."
"Where is Rogue Cultivator?" Li Yuan asked.
Ma Yuan was silent for a moment.
"They walked a lot, but not too much. Some ran away, and some were taken away by the Li Family people. I don't know where they went alive. There must be a lot of people who died on the road."
He paused.
"When the Demon Beast was at its worst a while ago, no one dared to go out. Later, the amount of Demon Beast gradually decreased. Recently, there was a store manager of a Wang Family store in Fang City who has been urging people to go north, saying that Qinghe Market is safer than here."
"There seemed to be a lot less Demon Beast nearby, so we followed them out."
Ma Yuan glanced at the companions behind him.
Li Yuan After listening, he asked again.
"When did the Li Family people come?"
"Earlier, probably more than half a month ago."
Rogue Cultivator, who was holding the cracked sword, answered, his voice low.
"A group of people came, not many, seven or eight, all with Qi Refining Mid-to-Late Stage's cultivation. We didn't clean up Demon Beast on a large scale. We just picked a few Rogue Cultivator who knew Alchemy, Talisman Making, and Artifact Refining Dao and took them away together."
"Escorted out of Fang City and headed south."
Ma Yuan nodded and added, "I haven't been here since."
Xu Qing has simply fixed the bones of the injured man in his right arm.
Li Yuan stood up and looked at the status of several people.
"Can I leave?"
Ma Yuan struggled to stand up and patted the dirt on his trouser legs.
"You can walk."
"Come with us and meet our leader first."
The six people took four Rogue Cultivator and turned back. After walking for about two miles, the outline of Station was revealed behind a low hill in front.
Uncle Qu is standing on a high rock on the edge of Station, looking southward.
Seeing Li Yuan coming back with several Rogue Cultivator, he only glanced at them, then turned around and jumped off the stone.
"Surrounded by three heads First-Order Mid-Grade, we solved it easily." Li Yuan replied briefly, and then relayed the market information provided by Ma Yuan and others one by one.
Uncle Qu After listening, his expression did not change and he just nodded.
"Get the people settled first and make repairs on the spot tonight."
After Uncle Qu finished speaking, he turned around and walked to the other side of Station, where two Wang Family monks were standing.
The three of them came together, their spiritual power fluctuated slightly, and their voices were isolated - it was Transmission Technique.
Li Yuan did not come over, walked back to his place, and counted the contents of the storage bag.
A Demon Beast roar came from the direction of the mountain col in the distance. It was low and long. It bounced back and forth between the mountain walls several times before dissipating.
Li Yuan Sit down and move Cultivation Method cross-legged.
Spiritual Qi pours into the body from all directions, flows through the meridians of the body under the combing of Hundred Meridians Origin Return Art, and finally merges into the Dantian.
My cultivation is still moving forward bit by bit.
