34 First bloodline upgrade part 1

In the web novel, Teng Fen coincidently saw a Four-eyed Jade Monkey transporting a Soul Enhancing Pear and followed it to the lair of their king. There, he killed the king and found hundreds of pears.

His Soul Power was already extremely high, so the increase was only minimal for him after he consumed them. But for Li Jing who had a normal level of Soul Power, these pears would give him a huge boost!

The Soul Power of a cultivator was inborn and could only be increased thanks to some rare treasures. The Soul Power determined a cultivator's ability to understand profound Cultivation methods and Martial techniques as well as his comprehension of the Dao of cultivation. In other words, the higher the Soul Power of a cultivator was, the faster they learned things, and the easier they could understand how to breakthrough a bottleneck.

Li Jing didn't believe that he could coincidently see a Four-eyed Jade Monkey transporting a Soul Enhancing Pear because these fruits were too rare and grew randomly. So, to find their king's lair, he had to use another method.

He knew that despite their high strength, the Four-eyed Jade Monkeys were very coward, so his idea was to slaughter as many monkeys as possible until they were completely scared of him. Then, they would immediately run towards there king after seeing him and he would just have to follow them.

He was sure that his plan would work.

But first, Li Jing needed to rest for the night. His Qi reserve was very low following all the fights he fought today. Thankfully, he saw a small cave on the way, not far from here, so he decided to go there...

The cave was still in the territory of the Crimson Blood Spiders. It was just big enough for one person and was very exposed so there was a high risk that some spiders would attack him during the night. However, it was not a problem for Li Jing because he now had a few Protection Stone Barriers that he got through the inheritance.

A Protection Stone Barrier was an artifact that contained enough spiritual energy to protect an area with a powerful shield for seven days and seven nights. Of course, it could be activated and deactivated at will. The shield could withstand attacks from cultivators in the Foundation Establishment realm or from tier-2 Demonic Beasts without any problem.

Li Jing took out a Protection Stone Barrier from his blood ring, placed it in the middle of the cave, and activated it. The shield was invisible, it was only when it was under attack that it became visible.

Now that he was in a safe place, Li Jing lit a campfire and took out a big meat piece of at least 25kg of the variant Demonic Beast. He cooked it and took his time to eat it. Then he started cultivating for the night…

--------------------------]

The next morning, Li Jing felt refreshed and in great shape.

He deactivated the Protection Stone Barrier and store it in his blood ring. It seemed that he has been overly cautious because no beast attacked him during the night.

Li Jing left the cave and walked towards the territory of the Four-eyed Jade Monkeys.

A few minutes later, he was in their territory and was already surrounded by twenty monkeys perched on the trees around him, these beasts didn't like intruders.

Ook-ook! Ook-ook! Ook-ook! Ook-ook! Ook-ook!

The Four-eyed Jade Monkeys looked like chimpanzees, except that their fur was entirely white and they had four green eyes that looked like jade stones. These beasts should not be underestimated because they were far smarter than the normal tier-1 Demonic Beasts and were also very agile, fast, and powerful! But, of course, for Li Jing, they represented no challenge.

The monkeys rushed to Li Jing, attacking him simultaneously from all directions. One of them was about to kick him from behind, another one was about to punch his face, four others were also going to attack him from the sides…

'Stupid beasts…' Thought Li Jing, smiling.

He activated his Elusive Smoke Steps techniques and all the monkeys passed through his body, crashing into each other in a loud bang.

Li Jing immediately took out his Lightning-flame Spirit Daggers and slaughtered the six monkeys in a second.

Seeing this, the other Four-eyed Jade Monkeys were furious with him and rushed to him, determined to kill this intruder. However, despite all their efforts, they couldn't touch him and all of them died in a matter of seconds a soon as they were close to him.

Once the twenty monkeys were dead, Li Jing stored their body inside his blood ring. He decided that he will extract their core tonight…

...

Half a day later, Li Jing could be seen among the huge trees, his two daggers in hands, cutting some Four-eyed Jade Monkeys in the middle of their territory.

"133… 134… 135…" He said, each time he was killing a monkey.

Since this morning, he already killed more than a hundred of them! He still had a few hours before nightfall and didn't plan to stop before that…

It was finally night.

Li Jing was sitting in the middle of a medium-sized cave, with a Protection Stone Barrier next to him. Outside, some Four-eyed Jade Monkeys were trying to enter the cave by continuously striking the shield, but Li Jing didn't care about them for now.

He has killed more than two hundred monkeys today but it seemed that it was still not enough, they didn't fear him yet. He will probably have to kill have a few hundred more before that.

Li Jing was currently extracting the Demonic Core of all the Demonic Beasts he has killed for the past few days.

Once he was done, he counted that he had 404 cores! He just needed less than a hundred more to be able to upgrade his bloodline.
