You think I have mixed spiritual roots? I became an immortal through a spirit gourd, so what are you

"That guy's probably dead!" Not long after, the three beams of yellow light realized there was no danger behind them, so they regrouped.

"We ran away. Four Green Wood Wolves. With his cultivation at the seventh level of the late stage of Body Refinement, he's doomed." Old Man Luo frowned.

"It's such a pity. We finally found a teammate and wanted to go deeper into the Qingyun Mountains, but we encountered a pack of wolves halfway there. The Qingyun Mountains are getting more and more dangerous." Zhang Song frowned.

"Enough said, let's hurry back to the trading market. We need to prepare a few more speed talismans, otherwise we won't be able to escape next time we encounter a situation like this."

……

"Bang!"

A greenwood wolf charged at him. Chen Huai'an swung his knife to block one of its claws, then kicked out with all his might, sending the greenwood wolf flying.

The Green Wood Wolf's claws were extremely sharp. Chen Huai'an pushed the Elephant Armor Technique to its limit, increasing his defensive power by more than one level.

However, due to the attack, his internal energy was severely depleted, and he could no longer maintain his Myriad Forms Bone-Changing Technique. His middle-aged, bearded appearance disappeared, and he returned to his original appearance.

With no outsiders around, Chen Huai'an could fully unleash his potential, even if he regained his original appearance.

The Myriad Forms Bone-Changing Technique is somewhat lackluster, offering little improvement in attack power, but its Elephant Armor Technique truly enhances defense.

He made groundbreaking progress in cultivating the Elephant Armor Technique, a defensive skill, within the spatial realm.

When he practiced the Elephant Armor Technique, a layer of fine scales appeared on his arms, which was formed by the condensation of the Qi and blood in his body.

The Green Wolf's claws were extremely sharp, but when they struck his arm, it was as if he had struck refined iron. There was only a slight recoil force, which did not tear through his defenses, but Chen Huai'an's attack was enough to kick the Green Wolf away.

Four Green Wood Wolves surrounded Chen Huai'an, but in just a few moments, Chen Huai'an tore open a gap in their defenses.

With terrifying explosive force, the spirit weapon longsword in his hand severely injured one of the Green Wood Wolves.

"These beasts are nothing special." Seeing the other three Green Wood Wolves baring their teeth, he dared not approach.

This was the wolf demon that Ma San Niang and her companions were hunting, but it was no match for him.

Chen Huai'an underestimated his strength.

The Flaming Blade Technique had a natural suppressive effect on this wood-type wolf demon. Coupled with its terrifying explosive power and the powerful defense brought by the Elephant Armor Technique, the four Green Wood Wolves were doomed to be slaughtered.

"Beasts! Trying to escape? Die!" A wolf howl rang out, and two Green Wood Wolves actually fled into the dense forest. Chen Huai'an threw his spirit weapon longsword, which pierced one of the Green Wood Wolves. Then he suddenly jumped up and chased after the other Green Wood Wolf in the direction it had fled.

If these beasts hadn't been trying to escape, he might have had a bit of a hard time dealing with them. But the fact that the Green Wood Wolf was trying to escape gave Chen Huai'an the opportunity to defeat them one by one.

"A good harvest today, I actually killed four Green Wood Wolves." Chen Huai'an put the four Green Wood Wolf corpses into his spatial storage and looked in the direction of the outer edge of the Qingyun Mountains.

"What was that yellow light emanating from Ma San Niang and the others when they escaped? Their speed was incredible."

Chen Huai'an shook his head, no longer thinking about those messy things. "With my current strength, as long as I don't encounter a Qi Refining Realm demon beast equivalent to the second tier, I can walk sideways in this outer area. There's absolutely no need for me to travel with these cultivators who have ulterior motives."

These three clearly had ways to save their lives. The other side didn't treat him as a teammate at all; instead, they used him as cannon fodder to buy time for them to escape. A hunting team like that is better off without.

Furthermore, walking around with an unfamiliar face made Chen Huai'an feel extremely uncomfortable. Now that he has regained his appearance and entered the Qingyun Mountains, he no longer needs to worry about being targeted by the Su or Zhang families.

What he needs to do right now is to find the Ironhide Beast to complete the sect's mission. There's no rush. As long as he stays within the Qingyun Mountains, he'll definitely be able to hunt down the Ironhide Beast he wants.

The immediate task is to find a secluded, relatively safe place, enter the gourd space, and take stock of his spoils.

The meat of a first-tier Green Wood Wolf demon is a valuable item. This beast meat is full of spiritual energy, which is of great help to his cultivation of Elephant Armor Technique and Myriad Manifestations Bone-Changing Technique. The wolf claws and fangs of the Green Wood Wolf are also good items that can be exchanged for spirit stones.

Chen Huai'an flashed into the space.

Chen Huai'an didn't sit idle either. He took care of the spirit field again and used the spirit spring water to irrigate the spirit herbs planted in the space.

In the breeding area, Chen Huai'an threw the harvested spirit grains and spirit grain stalks to the five-colored golden pheasants to eat.

After finishing all that, he began to dismember the remains of the Green Wolf.

The Green Wood Wolf's defense is quite good; only a spirit weapon can dismantle its fur and bones.

Chen Huai'an intended to eat the meat himself, but he collected the wolf demon's teeth, claws, and fur, as these could be exchanged for spirit stones.

During his interactions with Ma San Niang and the others, Chen Huai'an learned that the carcass of a Green Wood Wolf, if properly disposed of, could fetch 10 low-grade spirit stones.

If you discard his flesh and blood and keep it for yourself, these things can be sold for at least 8 low-grade spirit stones.

Although this was a bit dangerous, it would bring Chen Huai'an a reward of 30 low-grade spirit stones.

Since he didn't team up with anyone, all the loot belonged to Chen Huai'an alone.

Chen Huai'an didn't come here specifically to hunt demonic beasts, but rather to use this mission to improve his cultivation. Su Daqiang's appearance served as a wake-up call for him; he had to improve his strength as soon as possible. Only by becoming an outer disciple of the Qingyun Sect would he have a chance of survival.

In Qingyun Sect, you will only gain the sect's attention if you demonstrate sufficient value.

However, because of his poor talent and aptitude, even if Chen Huai'an broke through to the Qi Refining Realm and became an outer disciple, he would not be valued by the sect. All he could do was desperately improve his combat power.

Between cultivation level and strength, Chen Huai'an values ​​combat power the most.

Cultivation level does not purely represent strength. In particular, once you reach the Qi Refining stage, you can use magical artifacts and talismans. These external items can influence a person's combat power.

There's no need to worry about the wolf demon meat spoiling if you put it into the gourd space; the food is preserved in the space.

For the next two days, Chen Huai'an stayed in the space, eating wolf demon meat to aid his cultivation.

"I've reached the ninth level of the late stage of Body Refinement. My cultivation speed is not much slower than those geniuses." After two days of cultivation, Chen Huai'an's cultivation level directly broke through to the ninth level of the late stage of Body Refinement.

Many people say that it is very difficult to break through to the later stage of the Body Refinement realm, but this is not the case for Chen Huai'an.

"Whether it's breaking through cultivation levels, practicing the Elephant Armor Technique, or practicing the Myriad Manifestations Bone-Changing Technique, the amount of qi and blood consumed every day is terrifying." Chen Huai'an's appetite has been enormous these past two days. He has already eaten the meat of two of the four Green Wood Wolf demons. The demon beast meat in the space is only enough for him to eat for two days at most.

The saying that a martial artist eats an ox a day is not an exaggeration at all.

After each practice session of the Myriad Forms Bone-Changing Technique and the Elephant Armor Technique, he would feel very hungry and would only want to eat constantly.

Having broken through to the ninth level of the late-stage Body Refinement realm, the outer area was no longer too dangerous for Chen Huai'an, so he had to go out to find food.
