Under the cover of the night, Su Zimo returned to the cultivation field. He saw Die Yue and asked, "Miss Die, I have already mastered the Body Tempering section. Although it is only at the initial stage, how confident are I of defeating a Level 1 Qi Refinement Warrior?"
"You … will definitely die!"
Die Yue shot a glance at Su Zimo and said coldly.
Su Zimo stood rooted to the ground, unable to hide the disappointment in his eyes.
When he heard Uncle Zheng's words previously, he felt disdain and thought that he could easily suppress a Qi Refinement Warrior. He did not expect that …
At the same time, Su Zimo also had doubts in his heart.
Since demonic cultivation was also a form of cultivation, why could he not even defeat a Level 1 Qi Refinement Warrior?
Die Yue seemed to have seen through Su Zimo's thoughts and said lightly, "Your current strength is enough to kill a Level 4 Qi Refinement Warrior. However, you do not know how to fight. There are too many factors that affect a battle and strength is only one of them."
"Kill a Level 4 Qi Refinement Warrior!"
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat and he gradually came to his senses. It was not that he did not have enough strength, but that he lacked combat skills.
This was just like a peerless saber. When it landed in the hands of different people, the lethality it could unleash would naturally be different.
Even so, Su Zimo was still indignant. He raised his voice and said, "I know a little about combat. Even if hundreds of pugilistic experts besieged me, I can also fight my way out!"
"Is it worth bragging about being beaten up so badly by a bunch of mortals?"
Die Yue sneered and waved her hand gently. The Thunderbolt Saber that was originally stuck in the ground seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and floated in the air.
"Quick!"
Die Yue stretched out her finger and pointed in the direction of Su Zimo from a few feet away.
Swoosh!
The saber gleam flashed and the Thunderbolt Saber was already in front of Su Zimo. It hung in the middle of his brows and did not move an inch!
It was too fast!
There was no time to react.
Die Yue said leisurely, "This is the most common attack method of a Qi Refinement Warrior. Using spirit qi to control the spirit weapon. If you fought with a Qi Refinement Warrior, you would be a dead man now."
"It's so fast. How can I dodge it?" Su Zimo was a little confused.
Die Yue said, "Demons have two abilities that are far beyond what cultivators can do. Firstly, his physical body was strong. Secondly, his spiritual sense was sharp. You must remember that the bodies of most Cultivators are relatively weak. As long as you can avoid their first wave of attacks and shorten the distance between you, you will be able to execute them with the powerful melee combat ability of the demon clan!
Su Zimo frowned and pondered. After a while, he asked, "I know that the body is strong. The purpose of the Body Tempering Manual is to strengthen the body. What is the spiritual sense?"
Die Yue said, "Spiritual sense is hard to describe. You can understand it as a sense of danger. The demon race believes in the law of the jungle, where the strong preys on the weak. If you don't have a sharp spiritual sense, you will be eliminated and exterminated! "
"Cicada Seers?" Su Zimo's eyes lit up.
Die Yue nodded.
"How do I cultivate my spiritual sense?" Su Zimo asked again.
"Simple."
The corner of Die Yue's lips curled into a strange smile. Suddenly, she waved her sleeve towards Su Zimo.
Whoosh!
The space was distorted and he could not see. Su Zimo felt as though he had lost all his senses.
In an instant, he seemed to have been brought to another place.
"Where is this?"
After regaining his senses, Su Zimo looked around. The surroundings were silent and pitch-black, giving off a primitive and savage aura that filled the air eerily.
Die Yue said casually, "This is Cang Lang Mountain Range. If you can survive here for a year, you will have cultivated your spiritual sense."
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.
Cang Lang Mountain Range was dozens of kilometers away from Ping Yang Town. It was famous for being a dangerous place where demon beasts roamed freely. It was impossible to pass through at night.
Previously, he had heard many legends about Cang Lang Mountain Range. There were demons that sucked the essence of humans and ferocious beasts with eyes as big as bronze bells.
Of course, the overlords of Cang Lang Mountain Range were the wolves that were the most numerous. They were bloodthirsty, violent and extremely vengeful.
A few decades ago, a hunter from a nearby village caught a wolf cub from the mountain range. Unexpectedly, that night, the village was swallowed by thousands of wolves. Not a single person was spared and it became a ghost village. No one dared to stay there.
The surrounding vassal states were helpless against Cang Lang Mountain Range. No army dared to enter it.
Not to mention surviving in there, wanting to cross it safely was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
Die Yue continued, "Demons are also divided into different levels. The lowest level is not even qualified to be called a 'demon'. In the cultivation world, they are called spirit beasts, which are psychic beasts. There are strong and weak spirit beasts. Your 'Zhui Feng' is the weakest spirit beast. It has just gained sentience. As for strong spirit beasts, they are comparable to a Level 10 Perfected Qi Refinement Warrior! "
"Those above spirit beasts are called spirit demons. The difference in strength is even greater. The strong ones are comparable to Perfected Jin Dan while the weak ones are comparable to Foundation Establishment Cultivators."
Su Zimo frowned and asked, "Are there spirit demons in Cang Lang Mountain Range?"
According to Die Yue, he could not even defeat the most ordinary Qi Refinement Warrior, let alone spirit demons that were comparable to Foundation Establishment Cultivators and Jin Dan Cultivators.
"I don't know." Die Yue smiled faintly.
Su Zimo was stunned.
What kind of answer was this?
Su Zimo believed that it was impossible for Die Yue not to know. The only possibility was that Die Yue did not wish to say.
Die Yue said lightly, "This is a test. If you survive, you will completely transform and unleash the true power of The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness. If you cannot endure … you will end up being eaten by the spirit beasts and everything will be over. "
Su Zimo realized that if he were to survive in Cang Lang Mountain Range for a year, he would definitely face all kinds of spirit beasts. Danger was everywhere. This was a cruel test.
Of course, this was also a form of training.
A life and death experience!
Only between life and death could one hone a strong spirit perception!
Die Yue said, "It's not too late to regret now. If you decide to continue staying here, I will not care about you. One year later, if you do not appear in Ping Yang Town, I will leave."
"Regret?"
Su Zimo smiled. Regardless of whether it was for Zhou Dingyun who could return at any time, or for the enemies of the Su family, or to seek revenge for 'Zhui Feng', he had no choice.
"One year later, I will return alive."
In the darkness, Su Zimo's eyes were clear and bright, determined and persistent.
Su Zimo took a pen and paper from Die Yue and wrote a line of words on the paper. "I have something to do. Don't miss me."
Su Zimo folded the paper and passed it to Die Yue. He said, "Think of a way to send this to the Su residence. Uncle Zheng can recognize my handwriting."
Die Yue nodded and said, "There are still six hours before daybreak. I will impart the Tendons Transformation chapter to you. I will leave before daybreak. You only have six hours to cultivate. Make good use of it."
A sutra appeared in Su Zimo's mind once again.
"The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness. The Body Tempering chapter is the foundation. If the skin and flesh are not tough enough, once you cultivate the Tendons Transformation chapter, the skin and flesh will explode and the person will be crippled."
"The Tendons Transformation technique is derived from the Giant Python Demon King and the Sanguine Ape Demon King. First, cultivate the python, then the ape. The python is the most agile. It has the ability to move grass, coil and bend; the ape has the spirit to move mountains and the skill to climb rocks. "
"Initial success in the Tendons Transformation will increase the body's flexibility greatly. It will be as agile as a python, as light as an ape, as fast as the wind and as fast as an arrow. There will also be a rise in strength. When the tendons tremble, there will be the sound of a bowstring vibrating. Greater success in the Tendons Transformation will allow the skin, flesh and tendons to coordinate perfectly. It can stretch and contract the tendons and change the appearance of the body. Unless a Nascent Soul Daoist uses his divine senses, he will not be able to see through it. "
Die Yue explained the profoundness of the Tendons Transformation chapter.
In the depths of the forest, it was dark and quiet. Even the chirping of cicadas could not be heard. Only the woman's pleasant and lazy voice echoed.
The green-robed scholar beside the woman listened attentively.
Time passed and the night gradually faded.
When the first rays of the morning sun broke through the fog and landed in the forest, Die Yue stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Su Zimo, saying softly, "I'm leaving."
In Su Zimo's memories, he had never seen Die Yue speak to him in such a tone.
For some reason, Su Zimo felt a strange feeling in his heart.
As if possessed, Su Zimo asked, "If I'm in danger, will you really leave me in the lurch?"
The moment he asked that, Su Zimo regretted it.
Indeed, Die Yue sneered, "What does your life or death have to do with me?"
Those words sounded cold-blooded and unreasonable.
Su Zimo asked for a snub and remained silent with an embarrassed expression.
Die Yue turned and left. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared into the forest.
Su Zimo stood alone at the same spot. Just as he was feeling a little disappointed, Die Yue's voice sounded again. It went further and further away and gradually became silent.
"Cang Lang Mountain Range is the world of 'demons'. It's even more so at night. If you can survive the first month, you have a 30% chance of walking out alive after a year …"
Su Zimo was invigorated.
No matter what, Die Yue was not completely indifferent to him. Otherwise, she would not have imparted the Tendons Transformation chapter to him last night.
"Even if I survive the first month, I only have a 30% chance?"
Su Zimo was secretly shocked. He looked around with a vigilant expression. After confirming that there was no danger around, he tied the Thunderbolt Saber to his back and sat cross-legged, recalling the content of the Tendons Transformation chapter.
If he wanted to survive in Cang Lang Mountain Range, he had to master the Tendons Transformation chapter as soon as possible.
According to Die Yue, once he achieved initial success in the Tendons Transformation chapter, his strength would be able to threaten a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior.
This also meant that he could kill most of the spirit beasts in Cang Lang Mountain Range. His chances of survival would be greatly increased.
Su Zimo breathed and exhaled continuously, trying hard to find the feeling of the Tendons Transformation chapter.
Perhaps it was because of the foundation of the Body Tempering chapter or the pressure of being in a dangerous situation, Su Zimo had a preliminary mastery of the breathing technique of the Tendons Transformation chapter in no time.
This time, without needing Die Yue's reminder, Su Zimo linked the Body Tempering and Tendons Transformation chapters together and cultivated them together.
Every time Su Zimo breathed and exhaled, not only did it temper his skin and flesh, it also began to temper and nourish his large tendons, making them more flexible and strong.
Su Zimo was immersed in cultivation and momentarily forgot where he was.
After an unknown period of time, Su Zimo suddenly felt liquid dripping on his face. It was a little warm and sticky.
"It's raining?"
Just as this thought arose, Su Zimo suddenly opened his eyes and his expression changed drastically.
That was not right!
Why would the raindrops be warm and sticky?
Su Zimo was suddenly jolted awake. He finally realized that he was in the extremely dangerous Cang Lang Mountain Range and not the original cultivation field!
There was danger!
