"There are ten stages of the Martial Path, and each stage can increase my strength by 50 kilograms. A casual punch of mine has a strength of 600 to 700 kilograms. With the help of the Grade 2 Penetrating Fist, I should be able to kill any monster below Grade 3 with a single punch."
Ye Xuan said as he prepared to leave. There was nothing valuable on the green-furred boar. The entire carcass was probably worth only a dozen taels of silver.
However, at this moment, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped in his tracks and muttered, "The Devouring System can devour anything. Does that mean I can also devour this monster's carcass?"
He walked back and squatted down. He opened his mouth and sucked.
Sure enough, the green-furred boar's carcass began to shrink and was devoured by him.
"It can actually be devoured, and there's even a gain in spiritual energy. Haha, then if I were to madly kill demonic beasts, wouldn't I be able to level up as well?" Ye Xuan was overjoyed. This was another way for him to level up.
However, this green-furred boar's level was too low, so the feedback from the Devouring System was not much. Ye Xuan could not calculate whether he should sell the carcass for money or devour it directly. He did not know which was more cost-effective.
However, it was more convenient to devour it directly.
"Sigh, using my mouth to devour is still too shocking. If someone finds out, I'm afraid they will treat me as a monster and kill me. It's better to get three Devouring Points as soon as possible so that I can exchange for the Devouring Hand. In the future, I can use my hands to devour monsters. "
Ye Xuan shook his head and continued on his way.
Along the way, he checked the Devouring System whenever he had time and found many good things.
Other than the cultivation techniques of this world, there were other things such as magic and battle energy. However, these skills required a specific bloodline, such as the Magician's bloodline.
Ye Xuan felt that it was better to forget about it. These were too sci-fi. After all, this was a fantasy world. It would be too inappropriate to change to these. It was better to change to martial arts.
He walked forward alone, killing all the demonic beasts he encountered.
"Grade 3 monster Black Striped Leopard, take my punch!"
"Grade 2 monster Sharp Fanged Wolf, take my punch too!"
"Grade 3 monster Great Bull …"
Ye Xuan was seething with excitement. Every time he killed a Demonic Beast, his strength would increase. This was exactly the same as leveling up by killing monsters in games.
However, the Devouring System was not omnipotent. The golden ball had only become his Dantian. His spiritual energy was not limitless. Once it was used up, he would have to sit down and recover his spiritual energy.
In less than a day, Ye Xuan had killed his way to the Sixth Mountain Range. There were many Third and Fourth Stage Demonic Beasts here, so his improvement was relatively quick.
"At this rate, I should be able to break through to the mid-fifth stage of the Martial Path within three days."
Ye Xuan estimated in his heart.
Previously, Zhang Xuan estimated that he would need five hundred thousand taels of silver to level up. However, in the Eighteen Mountain Ranges of Lianyun, he would only need four days to level up, and he would be able to earn a hundred thousand taels of silver every day.
Of course, this was just the exchange of the money earned from killing demonic beasts.
If he really wanted to come in to earn money, he estimated that he would not be able to earn more than ten thousand taels of silver before he would have to leave. After all, after a martial artist killed a Demonic Beast, they would have to cut it up and store it away.
Everyone would not carry a lot of things with them. Once they were full, they would have to go back and sell them. This round trip would take many days. Therefore, it was still relatively difficult to earn money. It was just that Ye Xuan was more convenient.
At this time, Ye Xuan was resting on a tree. He was checking the Devouring System for good things to satisfy his cravings.
However, at this time, a sudden movement in the wind caught his attention.
"There's something!"
Ye Xuan immediately sat up straight. His right hand rested on his Low Grade Mortal Sword as he listened carefully.
The forest at night was more dangerous. Most people would spend the night in the trees. Very few people would move around in the forest. Moreover, Ye Xuan could tell that the sound of the wind blowing through the grass seemed to be caused by demonic beasts.
"Swish!"
A sound came from not far away.
Ye Xuan frowned and turned his head to look. However, because the surroundings were too dark, he could not see what kind of Demonic Beast it was.
The sound was getting closer and closer. This Demonic Beast happened to be walking in Ye Xuan's direction. However, when it appeared in front of Ye Xuan's eyes, it also made the latter's body tremble.
"Oh my god, this is a husky. It's actually a huge python."
Ye Xuan clearly saw what kind of Demonic Beast it was. It was a huge python that was three meters long. The radius of its body was almost comparable to Ye Xuan's thigh.
"This seems to be a White-Scaled Python. When it reaches adulthood, it will become a Rank Four Demonic Beast." Ye Xuan recognized it.
Rank Four Demonic Beasts. Even the stronger ones were only equivalent to a martial artist at the peak of the Fourth Stage of the Martial Path. Ye Xuan was at the Fifth Stage of the Martial Path. The martial arts he learned were even more advanced, so it should not be a problem for him to deal with it.
This White-Scaled Python did not seem to notice Ye Xuan and directly slid under him.
"This is the first Rank Four Demonic Beast I've encountered. After killing it and devouring it, I should be able to improve a lot. Kill!"
Ye Xuan gripped the hilt of his sword tightly and suddenly pulled out his sword. Then, he directly jumped and slashed at the White-Scaled Python's body.
Although he did not learn any sword techniques, under the suppression of his level, killing this White-Scaled Python was not a problem.
Clang!
However, what Ye Xuan did not expect was that when his sword slashed at the White-Scaled Python's scales, it actually made a crisp sound.
It did not break through its defense!
"What?"
Ye Xuan was shocked. Could it be that he had mistaken the Demonic Beast for someone else?
"Impossible. My sword with all my strength can definitely break through …" Ye Xuan did not dare to believe it. However, when he took a closer look, he realized that the White-Scaled Python's scales had a black luster. Because he was on the tree earlier, he did not notice it.
After being attacked, the White-Scaled Python immediately turned around and opened its bloody mouth to bite Ye Xuan's neck.
"Back Penetrating Fist Technique, Raging Bull's Charge!"
Ye Xuan formed a fist with his left hand and directly punched the White-Scaled Python's chin, forcing it to retreat. At the same time, he slashed out with his sword again, hitting the same spot as before.
Clang!
The second slash still did not break through the White-Scaled Python's defense.
"This is too strange. This is not an ordinary White-Scaled Python." Ye Xuan was puzzled.
At this moment, he struck again. This time, it was a stab.
The sword pierced through the gap between the White-Scaled Python's scales, and a crisp sound rang out. He broke through its defense!
"As long as I can break through your defense, then I can kill you!" Ye Xuan was overjoyed.
This White-Scaled Python was not very strong. It was just that its scales were very hard. However, fortunately, Ye Xuan had a low-grade Mortal Weapon in his hand that could cause damage to the White-Scaled Python.
Otherwise, he would have had to punch the python.
After a few rounds, the White-Scaled Python was bleeding profusely from Ye Xuan's stab. In the next moment, it actually fled.
