Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 37 Swallowing Qi and Blood
In the rotten forest, the cold wind blew and brought a chill.

“The fierce-horned wolf, the Five Immortals Mountain, the wolf king who has reached the perfection of the spiritual realm, this wolf pack really has some followers.”

The light of his soul went out, and Jiang Chen thought deeply about the information he had captured. At this point, he had a certain understanding of the wolf pack entrenched in Yangjiao Mountain.

As expected, this pack of wolves did come from outside, and their source was the Five Immortals Mountain. They had demon blood flowing in their bodies. As long as they successfully opened up their spirituality and breathed in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, their blood would be activated, and the sign of this would be the small horn growing on their forehead.

At this point, the ferocious wolf can truly be called a ferocious-horned wolf, and it begins to master the ferocious-horned wolf's innate magic. However, the ferocious-horned wolf in front of him has only been a monster for a short time, and his aptitude is average, so the only thing he really masters is the tracking technique.

"Tracking, which uses scent to lock onto the enemy, is the most basic talisman of the Fierce Horn Wolf Clan, and also the easiest to master. In addition, the Fierce Horn Wolf Clan also has two other talisman traditions: Gale Technique and Small Wind Blade Technique."

"However, compared to the tracking technique, these two talisman techniques are more difficult to master. Among the current Fierce Horn Wolf Clan, only the Wolf King has mastered them all."

As his thoughts turned, Jiang Chen unconsciously compared his own strength with that of the Wolf King.

In terms of realm, the Wolf King is slightly higher than him, but in terms of accumulation, the Wolf King may not be able to really beat him. After all, he has practiced the Lingsong breathing method to the highest level, and the degree of tempering of his body is far beyond ordinary, which can be said to be profound in spiritual charm.

"If the Wolf King only has the appearance in the memory of this Fierce Horned Wolf, I am still confident that I can defeat him. I have to say that the Fierce Horned Wolf clan does have some heritage. They have a good inherited spiritual object that is not only beneficial to the cultivation of the Spiritual Realm, but also has a certain help in breaking through the Qi Training Realm."

"Besides, the Fierce Horned Wolf Clan is too close to the Golden Sand Valley. If I don't want to give up the Golden Sand Valley, I must get rid of the Fierce Horned Wolf Clan. Based on the information I have obtained so far, the Fierce Horned Wolf Clan is indeed a good prey."

Turning his gaze towards Yangjiao Mountain, Jiang Chen had some ideas in his mind. He had long thought of attacking the Fierce Horn Wolf Clan, and the existence of that spiritual object further strengthened his determination.

"That wolf king seems to be trying to break through to Qi training. I have to act faster."

Jiang Chen retracted his gaze and turned his attention back to the ferocious horned wolf that had already died.

"If you want to deal with the Wolf King, you must first reduce its wings. I just take this opportunity to strengthen myself. This increase and decrease is the chance of victory."

The talisman was activated and a flame popped out from Jiang Chen's fingertips.

The next moment, blood-red flames completely enveloped the body of the ferocious-horned wolf.

"After studying the Blood Flame Technique for so long, it's time to reap the rewards."

As a thought came to his mind, a scarlet light flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes, which was a murderous look.

Feeling this chilling murderous intent, Shu Tianjiao on the side couldn't help but tremble.

While quietly watching the corpse of the ferocious-horned wolf turn into nothingness in blood and fire, Jiang Chen restrained all his murderous intent and suddenly opened his mouth to inhale.

Huh, blood and fire boiled, flowing into Jiang Chen's mouth like running water. At this moment, Jiang Chen's blood began to surge, and his whole body emitted heat like a small stove. For a moment, the cold feeling around him disappeared a little.

Just like that, after a cup of tea, Jiang Chen had completely devoured all the blood and fire. "Sure enough, compared to ordinary beasts, the blood and energy of this fierce-horned wolf is of superior quality. Just by devouring one, my own blood and energy have doubled."

After letting out a long breath and feeling the changes in himself, Jiang Chen couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy on his face.

Of course, the reason why he could make such progress was not only because the Fierce Horned Wolf was indeed full of energy and blood, but also mainly because his soul was strong and his control was strong, which allowed him to effectively absorb and suppress this energy. For ordinary people, absorbing only one-tenth or one-twelfth of it was already the limit.

"My martial arts aptitude in this physical body isn't particularly outstanding. However, through practicing the Dao and refining my spirit fetus, I have, to a certain extent, raised the upper limit of my Qi and blood capacity. Furthermore, the powerful power of my soul has further sublimated this upper limit."

"Now I need more, not only to absorb Qi and blood, but also to practice some spells. Tianjiao, let your little mice help me find them."

His eyes fell on Shu Tianjiao and Jiang Chen gave an order.

Hearing this, without any hesitation, Shu Tianjiao immediately let out a series of rapid calls. Soon after, more and more rats rushed into the darkness.

From this moment on, a phantom appeared in the forest. It appeared and disappeared mysteriously, constantly hunting ferocious wolves. Any ferocious wolf that encountered it would be drained of blood and energy, leaving no trace of its body.

Faced with such a situation, even a ferocious wolf could not help but fall into panic. Fortunately, the only remaining ferocious wolf in the pack besides the wolf king came forward and temporarily stabilized the situation.

As if it had learned the lesson from the missing ferocious horned wolf, it did not advance again. Instead, it issued an order to recall all the ferocious horned wolves outside and took a defensive posture.

"This ferocious-horned wolf is indeed quite intelligent. It responded so quickly."

Under the big tree, looking at Yangjiao Mountain, Jiang Chen had an indifferent expression. After this period of killing, the coldness that was originally hidden in his body began to reveal itself naturally.

"Let's begin the second phase of our plan. While some wolves are intelligent and know how to seek benefits and avoid harm, the vast majority are merely wild beasts and lack true intelligence."

After leaving a few words, Jiang Chen disappeared again.

Upon hearing this, Shu Tianjiao, who controlled the rat group, immediately began to make new arrangements. During this period of time, the rat group under his control had indeed suffered heavy losses due to the hunting of wolves. However, under the guidance of Jiang Chen, he found many wild rats in this forest.

Relying on their own abilities, they were forcibly incorporated into the population. Although these mice were not as capable as those carefully bred mice, fortunately there were a large number of them, enough to be used as cannon fodder.

At night, sporadic sounds were heard. A ferocious wolf smelled the scent of prey and immediately pounced out.

Not long after, a mouse was successfully swallowed by it. However, just when it was in a happy mood and ready to go home, a burst of sparse sounds was heard not far away.

Hearing the voice, the ferocious wolf vaguely caught a glimpse of a blurry figure, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Without thinking too much, the wolf smacked its lips and quickly chased after it. The mouse was still too small for it to taste clearly. Just like that, it left Yangjiao Mountain unknowingly and was eventually swallowed by the darkness. Similar things continued to happen.
