Chapter 18

There is only about one month left before the Ascension of the Dragon Ceremony, and Gu Chen needs unprecedentedly huge resources.

And there is nothing else that can satisfy his needs, except Taboo Lin Hai.

When he couldn't eat the Tiger Pill, he went to the Taboo Linhai, which was rich in fierce tigers, and ate the whole head of the fierce tiger directly.

What's more, Liehu is just a very common savage beast in the taboo forest. The savage beasts there are full of blood and energy, and the energy source continuously provides him with energy.

It’s just that the taboo forest is called taboo because it is rumored that there is a “ghost market” in its depths, which is a desperate place that even monks in the supernatural powers can never return.

Moreover, although there are the most savage beasts in the forest, there are also many monsters. They are equivalent to monks in the supernatural realm of the human race. With Gu Chen's cultivation base, they are close to death.

Fortunately, monsters usually only appear in the depths of the taboo forest, and Gu Chen reckons that as long as he doesn't go too far, there won't be too much risk.

After making a decision, Gu Chen immediately went to the Zongmen Artifact Workshop, and asked the craftsman to forge three fine steel swords, bought a bunch of healing medicine, and changed into a light black warrior uniform.

Everything was ready, and without anyone knowing, he walked through the peaks of the outer gate alone, without looking back, and stepped into the forbidden forest area!

...

"Roar~~~"

In the mountains and forests, the cries of tigers and monkeys can be heard endlessly.

Two iron-backed wolves and three fierce tigers surrounded a boy in black with their horns.

In the air, there were even two golden-crowned vultures watching intently, waiting for the young man to fall into the mouth of the wild beast at any time, and then rush down to eat his corpse.

The black-clothed boy was Gu Chen, holding a fine steel sword, and looked at many wild beasts coldly.

This was his first day in the forbidden forest. Because of his inexperience, after killing a one-horned rhinoceros, the strong smell of blood quickly attracted these savage beasts.

Instead of being surprised, he was overjoyed. Looking at these wild beasts, he seemed to have seen twice-cooked pork, stir-fried wolf meat, tiger meat soup and other dishes, and he swallowed involuntarily.

His appetite has been getting bigger and bigger, the Wuchen sect's food is too ordinary, with too many grains, it can't satisfy his appetite at all.

These savage beasts are different, each of them grows in the jungle, with well-developed muscles, strong blood, and absolute game.

The fierce tiger was about to pounce, and the iron-backed wolf was about to move. They stared at the human youth in front of them, and they already moved their index fingers.

When the human race goes hunting in the forest, they often come in groups, but it is rare to meet such a single person.

A human teenager like this has delicious meat at a young age, and it tastes crunchy when bitten. Just thinking about it makes people salivate.

"Roar--"

Unable to hold back anymore, many savage beasts rushed forward following their bestial instincts.

Gu Chen's eyes were filled with purple, which was a little darker than the first time. The ferocious movements of these wild beasts seemed to him to be very slow.

Whoosh whoosh!

Raising the fine steel sword, Gu Chen used Wukong Sword's seven-way swordsmanship, the sword light was fast and slow, bright and dark!

Each sword hit the door precisely, piercing the fierce tiger's throat without muddling, and pulling it out again in the blink of an eye, piercing the wolf's abdomen.

The whole movement was done in one go, with flowing clouds and flowing water, and he did not panic in the face of the siege of the beasts.

When the sword was retracted into its sheath, two iron-backed wolves and three fierce tigers all fell down, and blood flowed all over the ground.

The strongest swordsmanship in the physical realm, can it be compared with this group of rough-skinned and thick-skinned beasts who only know how to attack brutally?

"Jee--"

The golden-crowned vulture circling in the sky saw that the food of the human race was gone, so it screamed a few times angrily, and left through the air.

As for Gu Chen, he simply tidied up and set up a barbecue grill on the spot.

Be it fierce tigers or iron-backed wolves, he set them up head to head and roasted them until they were golden and shiny.

The oil dripped on the fire and made a "chichi" sound, and then sprinkled some sea salt to moisten it into the meat, and the tempting aroma immediately wafted throughout the forest.

Bite off the wolf meat in one bite, it was soft and tender, Gu Chen's index finger moved wildly.

As the wolf meat entered his stomach, a stream of heat arose, and Gu Chen could clearly feel that the effect was no less than that of taking those rare medicinal materials.

His eyes lit up, and he began to feast on it.

An hour later, two wolves and three tigers all fell into his belly.

Gu Chen felt dry and hot all over his body, which was different from elixir, which directly nourished wild beasts. The energy in their bodies was very violent, and ordinary people could not bear it at all.

He silently circulated the Tian Chen Wan Xiang Jue, the stars were shining in the sky, his breathing gradually stabilized, and he entered the realm of cultivation.

After a stick of incense time passed, the savage spirit in the body was almost digested.

Part of the essence was absorbed by the invisible abyss in the body, and the other part was integrated into the Yongquan acupoint under his feet and accumulated in it.

"Eating savage beasts directly has a good effect on accumulating the potential of the physical body. I was worried that the energy would be too violent. I didn't expect that I would be hungry again after this effort."

Gu Chen touched his nose involuntarily. The invisible abyss in his body seemed to make his appetite bigger and bigger, and he needed to keep nourishing himself.

Fortunately, these spirits didn't disappear for nothing, they really merged into his flesh and blood, and he could feel his strength improving little by little.

"Ye Qingshuang, wait, a month later, I will give you a big surprise!"

Gu Chen felt ruthless in his heart, and stood up again.

In this month, he will incarnate as Shura, hunt and kill countless wild beasts, just to forge the strongest bone!

Every day after that, Gu Chen kept hunting wild beasts along the outskirts of the taboo forest.

The process is dangerous, but the rewards are huge.

At first, his daily food intake was only enough for ten wild beasts, but then it doubled, and then it doubled again.

Under the condition of continuously nourishing a large amount of essence, the acupoints in his body were rushed open one after another.

The spring at the foot, the perineum at the gate of the ground, the dantian at the lower abdomen, the divine tower at the spine...

It took him a week to break open the nine basic acupoints, and then set his target on the 365 star acupoints of the Tianchen Wanxiang Jue.

He experienced life and death every day, and spent every day in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood of wild beasts, just for the obsession in his heart that he must never lose.

Under such circumstances, not only the realm of the physical body has improved extremely fast, but even Wuchen's swordsmanship has inadvertently stepped into the third stage - the Wusheng sword.

The Wusheng sword focuses on killing, and the most important thing is the killing intent that goes forward indomitably.

Although Gu Chen used to practice swords, he was extremely lacking in actual combat experience, and the smell of blood was less in the sword.

However, fighting against wild beasts in the mountains and forests, he may die if he is not careful, which made his swordsmanship advance by leaps and bounds.

Wu Shengjian practiced naturally, and Gu Chen's swordsmanship became more agile and more powerful.

After cultivating to the third level, the Wuchen swordsmanship can already crush most martial arts in the physical realm.

This also liberated Gu Chen's productivity again. Ordinary savage beasts can be killed with just one sword strike, and even the blue-scaled giant elephant whose flesh is as thick as a city wall cannot withstand three sword strikes.
