C10 The Third Level of the Martial Warrior
"They said that I wouldn't be able to condense inner strength for a year, but I only used less than five days to enter the second level of the Bull Strength. And from the looks of it, I'm about to break through to the third level of the Tiger Strength. Alright, alright, I'll do it in one go and use the shortest amount of time to raise my realm. In the future, I won't have to fear Zhao Tianle, this bastard!"
The dantian was full of energy, and it was the foundation for raising one's realm. However, just the dantian's energy was not enough. One needed to open up the meridians that had to be opened. Only by doing this could one smoothly enter the next level.
Using the impact of the fiery line, Ye Feng's inner strength rushed through his meridians with all his might. Very soon, he had already opened more than half of the meridians required for the third level of the Martial Warrior Realm.
An intense pain came from within his body, as if his meridians were about to be torn apart. It made Ye Feng's entire body tremble.
If it were someone else, they would definitely have failed to rush through the meridians in such a situation.
However, Ye Feng clenched his teeth and with great willpower, he persisted. He allowed his sweat to fall onto the ground, but he did not give up.
"The hardships of life are the hardships of life. Only... the last step..." His hope was right in front of him. He had to succeed in rushing through the meridians.
He had to succeed!
Suddenly, he exerted force with his five fingers, and the five fingers holding the Purple Jade Lingzhi were all sunk into the ground. In an instant, an even more turbulent fiery line turned into inner strength and rushed forward.
"Boom!"
Only the loud sound that he could hear could be heard, and it almost caused Ye Feng to fall off the cliff.
The pain in his tendons disappeared, turning into a cold air current that washed over his body. It was as if mercury was flowing, and an unprecedented sense of comfort spread throughout his entire body.
"Haha … I succeeded! I successfully entered the Third Level Martial Cultivator of the Martial Cultivator Realm, and I am also a Martial Cultivator of the Tiger Realm! "
His limbs and bones were filled with an inexhaustible amount of strength, making him have the impulse to clench his lips and roar.
He jumped down from the cliff.
Huff … Huff …
One punch after another, the large trees beside him were all broken into two, and then Ye Feng raised his eyes and jumped to the side of a large rock that was as tall as a person.
"Get up!" With his strength in his arms, he lifted the large rock in one breath.
One time! Two times! Three times!
He lifted the large rock more than a dozen times in a row, and then his entire body began to sweat, and his entire body felt extremely comfortable.
How refreshing!
After putting the large rock back on the ground, the hundreds of kilograms of weight caused the soil to sink downwards, but it did not make too much of a sound.
This large rock seemed to weigh no less than 500 kilograms, and the strength of an ordinary Martial Cultivator of the Tiger Realm was only about 500 kilograms. Logically speaking, it should not be easy to lift such a heavy rock, but he had done it with ease.
Ye Feng thought for a moment and realized that it was probably because the Evergreen And Everlasting Vein had devoured a lot of herbs that could increase one's strength, and the accumulated amount was enough to make him break through to the Tiger Realm, so his strength far exceeded that of an ordinary Third Level Martial Cultivator.
He had reached nearly 700 kilograms.
Good, good, good, the stronger the better.
His eyes lit up.
Normally, a martial cultivator of the third or fourth level would enter the Great Black Forest to pick herbs. After a whole day of hard work, they might not be able to pick a few low-grade Yellow Rank Spiritual Herbs. However, Ye Feng, who had the guidance of the Evergreen And Everlasting Vein, could even sense the medicinal herbs that were hundreds of feet away. Therefore, in a day, there were more than ten medicinal herbs in the medicinal basket behind him.
Most of them were low-grade Yellow Rank Spiritual Herbs, with only one or two of them being middle-grade.
For Spiritual Herbs like the Purple Jade Ganoderma, after absorbing their Spiritual Nature, they were crushed into pieces without hesitation by Ye Feng.
He would not stay behind.
After all, these medicinal herbs had lost their Spiritual Nature. They looked fine and undamaged, but in fact, they were just medicinal dregs that were useless. If they were too high level, it would be easy for people who knew the medicinal properties to see through them and cause him trouble.
If he wanted to live well in this world, he had to be watertight...
...
In another part of the Great Black Forest, in a forest where a huge bonfire was lit, Zhao Huo, Zhao Yong, and seven or eight other people from the Zhao Family Manor were gathered together. They were counting their harvest today.
"Three middle-grade Yellow Rank Spiritual Herbs, seventeen low-grade Spiritual Herbs, and the rest are ordinary medicinal herbs that are not of high grade."
"It's a good result. After all, we just entered the Great Black Forest today and are still at the outer entrance stage. It seems like we will have a good harvest this time." Zhao Huo, who was leading the group, was overjoyed as he calculated.
Most of the medicinal herbs had to be handed over, and each herb picker could only leave behind ten percent of them. The more they picked, the greater the harvest.
"Brother Huo, since you picked so many medicinal herbs, the Deacon should still have a reward, right?" Zhao Yong poked his head out and asked.
"Just picking medicinal herbs is not enough. If you want a reward, you have to do another thing that the Deacon has instructed me to do. Hehe …" A trace of playfulness flashed across Zhao Huo's eyes, and his smile was somewhat evil.
"Are you talking about that trash? Brother Huo, as long as he enters the Great Black Forest, I, Zhao Yong, guarantee that he won't be able to live. He has only awakened one Martial Vein, and he definitely hasn't even condensed his inner strength yet. On what basis can he walk out of the Great Black Forest alive?" Zhao Yong patted his chest and said.
"Don't be afraid of the one thousand, but be careful of the one thousand."
"What if this trash is lucky?" The others all spoke at once.
"I think there's a possibility. This trash entered the Great Black Forest in the open, but he secretly found a tree hole to hide in, and in a few days, he will be able to come out with us in broad daylight …" Zhao Huo suddenly lowered his voice and whispered into Zhao Yong's ear, "Little Yong, I'll give you a mission …"
The flames on the bonfire suddenly increased in intensity. With this little bit of light, one could see the sinister and terrifying light flashing on Zhao Huo and Zhao Yong's faces.
...
Awooo …
It was already deep into the night, and a wolf's howl shook the forest.
The night was the world of the wild beasts. At night, many wild beasts would come out from their nests to hunt for food.
The outskirts of the Great Black Forest were the most savage. They could tear tigers and leopards apart and eat humans without spitting out their bones.
At this moment, a group of wolves had appeared in the valley where Ye Feng was. There were at least seven or eight of them. Their bodies were strong, and their eyes that were suffused with green light could see through the night. They could clearly see the prey a few miles away.
Awoo …
Wolf howls filled the air as the wolves surrounded him. They had discovered Ye Feng, a human.
The pairs of eerie green lights kept closing in, and their mouths were filled with terrifying fangs. Some of the wolves even had blood flowing out of their mouths, and their fur was sticky. They were especially sensitive to the scent of humans, especially Martial Cultivators who had strong vitality.
The strength that the wild wolves unleashed was comparable to that of two Martial Cultivators. However, these wild beasts were extremely fast, and coupled with the darkness in the Great Black Forest at night, it was extremely difficult for them to escape from the eight wild wolves.
Looking at the few wild wolves that were slowly approaching, Ye Feng's face flashed with a contemptuous smile.
To him, climbing up the tree was the best choice. When dawn came, the wolves would naturally disperse. However, Ye Feng wanted to test his own strength. If he could climb up the tree when he encountered a wild wolf, what would happen if he encountered Zhao Huo and the others?
Most of the time, escaping would not solve the problem. He would always encounter situations where he was at a disadvantage.
