Immortality starts from the liver proficiency

Chapter 20 Pursuit
"Remember to teach me the Chaoyang Yiqi Jue."

"Don't worry, I, Li Haomiao, am a man of my word. Once we get out of this 800-li Huangchuan Icefield, I will naturally teach you."

Xu Yunfan didn't mention it again after hearing that. Although Li Haomiao seemed a little unreliable and was afraid of ghosts, it seemed that he had done what he said.

When Fang Mushan came back empty-handed and with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Sorry, both of you. Prey is so hard to come by these days. I went out looking for it, but huh?!"

He stared with wide eyes at the whole lamb roasting on the fire, filled with shock.

"Where did this come from?"

Xu Yunfan looked calm as he slowly turned the roasted whole lamb in his hands.

"Brother Fang taught me well. As soon as I went out, I saw this mountain goat and shot it in the vitals with an arrow. I was lucky enough to get a prey. I didn't expect that there are still many animals living in this 800-mile wild river. I thought we could only eat moss."

Fang Mushan was stunned for a long time, and subconsciously looked at Li Haomiao. Li Haomiao turned his head away calmly, and Fang Mushan sighed.

"I know, this is a benefit for newbies."

Fang Mushan muttered to himself that some newcomers to a certain profession, such as fishing, always catch bigger and more fish than others on their first trip.

Fang Mushan murmured, "Tomorrow, you probably won't be so lucky tomorrow."

Li Haomiao deeply agreed with this.

After dinner, Xu Yunfan tanned the rock sheep fur with the plant juice collected by Fang Muchan and hung it up to dry. Then he continued to wield the pickaxe and started digging deep holes, constantly honing his bronze body skills and increasing his proficiency.

He had basically eaten most of the fasting pills, and it was estimated that it would only take a few days for him to reach the level of proficiency in the Bronze Body Technique.

Li Haomiao and Fang Mushan watched Xu Yunfan continue to swing the pickaxe to dig deeper into the cave, and they were used to it.

Li Haomiao said lazily, "If you want to cultivate the Bronze Body Skill to perfection, you need to use secret medicine to practice it. If you just practice hard like this and use hammering to grind your body, you will only hurt yourself in the end."

Xu Yunfan didn't even turn his head and just swung the pickaxe.

"You know a hammer."

"..."

According to conventional procedures, many martial arts require external assistance, especially those martial arts that have the effect of horizontal training.

If there were external secret medicines to assist, the efficiency of practice would be further improved. Xu Yunfan was helpless, but not discouraged. Since he had already mastered the skills, as long as he persevered, it would only be a matter of time before he could become proficient.

Moreover, there is a piece of Lin Zi Jue that is obscure and difficult to understand, and it is mixed with many Taoist allusions and terms. If it were not a method of initiation and there is an attribute panel, I am afraid that only a Taoist master who has carefully read the Taoist canon for decades would be qualified to understand it.

After he was exhausted from practicing the Bronze Body Technique, he took a short rest for about ten minutes, then began to make seals with his hands on the spot, silently chanting the "Supreme Good is Like Water" mantra, and his mind gradually fell into a state of neither emptiness nor emptiness.

"You practiced the Lin character technique, trying to grasp its meaning superficially, and it seemed to give you some insight, but when you thought about it more carefully, you found nothing."

"You hold your breath and concentrate, practicing the Lin character technique. A flash of inspiration seems to pass through your mind, but when you try to capture it, it has already disappeared."

'...'

There is also a visualization picture in the Lin character secret, but unfortunately I have not entered the door and have not grasped the key points.

Nowadays, practicing with high concentration for less than half an hour is already the limit. If you continue, it will really hurt your mind.

His only consolation was that, even though he hadn't mastered the Lin character technique, his sleep quality had improved. No matter how exhausted he felt that day, he would wake up the next day refreshed and refreshed. After completing his practice, Xu Yunfan fought back his sleepiness and crawled out of the deep cave. Under the watchful eyes of Li Haomiao and Fang Mushan, he rolled into a corner, cushioned by the weeds he had gathered that day, and fell into a deep sleep.

"Master Yang, are you sure they dug this?"

A middle-aged man wearing armor, holding a long sword and with a mustache, looked at Yang Gan who was exploring a cave not far away with a look of disbelief on his face.

Yang Gan's eyes twitched, and he stretched out his fingers to carefully pinch the soil.

"This soil is very fresh, having been dug just a few days ago. Furthermore... there are traces of fire roasting animals near the fireplace, which is enough to prove that they have lived here."

"This cave is large enough to house six or seven people, and they've even dug out a fireplace. This would have taken at least two or three martial arts experts an entire night to complete. Lord Yang, are you saying they did nothing but dig the cave all day?"

Yang Gan said in a deep voice, "Master Xu, based on my many years of tracking and hunting experience, this is indeed a newly dug cave, and it was dug with an iron pickaxe. It came from Ningguta, and it is definitely the direction that Prince Yan and his men are heading. It is said that Fang Mushan is also traveling with them."

"Fang Mushan..."

Lord Xu twisted his mustache with two fingers and thought.

"I've heard of the son of General Fang Wen, the Grand Auxiliary General. He's naturally gifted with supernatural powers. If he were to dig, it wouldn't make sense that he could dig such a hole in a few hours. But does he have nothing else to do?"

At this time, a head emerged from a tunnel below the cave.

"Your Excellency, there is a tunnel inside the cave, at least forty meters long, and inside it there is a space of moderate size."

Yang Gan: “…”

He could hardly believe what he heard. How could the King of Yan, who was on the run, have the leisure to dig such a big hole?

Lord Xu narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Gan.

"Sir Yang, if we are wrong and fail to capture Prince Yan and his men, we will all be killed, especially Sir Yang. If you don't follow through with the military order, given General Zhang's temper, I'm afraid he will behead you in public."

Yang Gan's heart skipped a beat. He snorted coldly and stood up, saying, "My Yang family originated from tracking and hunting. Our ancestors once accompanied the late emperor in tracking prey. They have their own unique skills. This is definitely a trace they left behind."

There was silence for a moment, and no one said anything more.

Zhang Shuyang asked Yang Gan to temporarily lead thirty elite soldiers, but of course he was not giving them to him to lead. Strictly speaking, Yang Gan was just a leader.

Although he was just a guide, Lord Xu and his group had no choice but to go in whatever direction Yang Gan pointed.

After resting for a night in this valley, the group continued their journey in a hurry. When they tracked down the next site, Yang Gan couldn't help twitching his eyes when he saw the hole in the ground which was even bigger than the previous one.

Someone couldn't help but whisper, "Don't they have enough energy? In such a freezing cold environment, they still have the leisure to dig out a few rooms?"

Yang Gan twisted the fresh soil under his feet and murmured, "It's almost done. It will take no more than two days to dig out this hole."

He was filled with anger. After all, it was a great shame that his professional tracking skills were doubted.

When the time comes, I will definitely seek revenge.
