Just when Cheng Yu was still pondering over the fact that his perception had failed, the five alligators had already arrived at the shore, surrounding Cheng Yu.
"Seems like you all treat me as a soft persimmon. When you see me, you all want to take a bite. Just nice, I am also hungry. Let's use you all as dinner," Cheng Yu took out his sword.
This time, Cheng Yu chose to take the initiative to attack. He found one of the alligators and raised his sword. With a Primeval Chaos Stab, he stabbed towards the alligator's body.
"Clang!" Just as Cheng Yu had expected, the demonic beasts in this forest knew how to use Qi. Cheng Yu's sword was about an inch away from the alligator's body when a black Qi barrier appeared. Even though Cheng Yu was prepared, he was still shocked when such a situation appeared in front of him.
When one of its companions was attacked, the other four all rushed forward. Although the alligator's body was huge, its speed was very fast.
With a swing of its tail, a few of its tails swatted towards Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu leaped up, escaping from the alligator's attack. "Pu! Pu!" Although these alligators were only at the fourth rank, their intelligence did not seem to lose to the Dark Flame Wild Lion. The five alligators raised their heads and opened their mouths, shooting out water arrows at Cheng Yu.
"Hiss! Hiss!" Cheng Yu was shocked. He did not know these alligators had such abilities. He quickly brandished the sword in his hand to block the water arrows. Cheng Yu changed his posture once again. His head was down and his legs were up. Just like the time when he clashed with Huang Wen, he charged towards the alligator's mouth.
This time, Cheng Yu imbued all his Qi into the sword. The whole sword was suffused with a dazzling blue light. With a "pa" sound, Cheng Yu's sword instantly broke the crocodile's Qi barrier, piercing straight into its mouth. "Bang!
"Ao! Ao!" With its mouth pierced, the alligator immediately cried out in pain. Its body kept rolling on the ground as it slapped the ground with its tail.
When the other alligators saw Cheng Yu had landed on the ground, they immediately rushed over with their mouths wide open. Cheng Yu was already prepared. His shining left hand punched one of the alligators. With a "bang" sound, the alligator was sent flying by Cheng Yu.
There were still three remaining. Cheng Yu did not hesitate as he met them head on. He used his phantom fist to break the opponent's Qi barrier. After that, he used his sword to pierce through three of the alligators' mouths.
The five heavily injured crocodiles on the ground actually tumbled towards the river. Cheng Yu quickly went forward and stabbed them a few more times. After thoroughly dealing with them, he pulled them back to the shore to prevent their blood from flowing into the river.
Crocodiles were social animals. Cheng Yu did not believe that there were only five of them. Therefore, he could not let their blood flow into the river. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if another group of crocodiles appeared.
Although he could escape, he couldn't let his companions take away the five Giant Crocodiles after expending so much effort to kill them. The skin of these alligators was very hard. If Cheng Yu did not pierce their mouths, he would not be able to pierce through any other parts of their body. This layer of armor was actually even stronger than their own Qi armor. How could Cheng Yu let go of such a good blacksmith material?
"Damn, these fellows really aren't simple. Fortunately, they're only Tier 4. If they were Tier 5 like the Dark Flame Wild Lion, then it would be troublesome. However, these armors are really good stuff. After peeling them for an hour, I finally finished peeling all five of them. This is really not easy. It's not as easy as fighting a fight, "Cheng Yu was very satisfied with the five intact alligator skins.
However, Cheng Yu's work was not done yet. Because the alligator skin was not the only thing that could be used to refine the blacksmith, it still had to use its bones. Therefore, Cheng Yu spent another two hours to remove the bones.
"D * mn it! It's really not easy to get these materials. Just the cleaning work alone had wasted so much time. It seems like I need to strengthen this aspect in the future. Fortunately, I had prepared for it. I have more than ten storage pouches with me. Otherwise, I won't be able to keep all the spoils of war in the future, "Cheng Yu took out three storage pouches and placed the skin, bones and meat into them.
Previously, he had killed around ten Kunlun disciples and obtained a total of ten storage pouches. Fortunately, these low-grade storage pouches were not expensive. However, the storage pouches' capacity was not big. It was only a few cubic meters, similar to Cheng Yu's storage ring.
Cheng Yu had already expected that he would be staying here for a long time. Therefore, he had specially bought more than ten storage pouches in the city just in case. From the current situation, Cheng Yu's thinking was very correct.
Originally, Cheng Yu wanted to take advantage of this time to roast a few pieces of alligator meat to settle his dinner. However, when he saw that the sun was about to set and that there might be even more alligators appearing, Cheng Yu packed up his stuff and continued his journey.
In this Death Forest where danger lurked everywhere, Cheng Yu did not dare to casually look for a place to spend the night. The sky had already turned dark and he had yet to find a suitable cave. Cheng Yu was helpless. In the end, he found a thousand-year-old tree and flew up.
In the depths of the forest, Cheng Yu did not dare to casually light a fire. Therefore, he took out the cooked food that he had already prepared. As Cheng Yu ate, he pondered over what had happened today.
The Dark Flame Wild Lion and the giant alligator were able to use Qi to protect themselves. This matter might seem small, but Cheng Yu felt that there was something strange about this forest.
Rank 4 and 5 demonic beasts could only be considered as low-rank demonic beasts. If they were able to use Qi to protect themselves, what about those demonic beasts? Wouldn't they be like human cultivators, able to use Spiritual Qi to execute dao techniques? How valiant would they be?
When Cheng Yu thought of this possibility, his heart turned numb. The appearance of such a situation would undoubtedly be a huge obstacle for Cheng Yu.
"Forget it. This is also good. Otherwise, the treasures inside would have long been plundered by others. At least I still have a sliver of chance. " After thinking for a while, Cheng Yu still could not come up with a reason. He gave up and took out the blacksmithing jade strip that the old man had given him, preparing to study blacksmithing.
Similar to pill concoction, blacksmithing also required a high degree of mental energy concentration. And the grade of the item that was refined was also related to the blacksmithing technique grade, blacksmithing technique, and the strength of one's mental energy.
Cheng Yu carefully studied every detail of the blacksmithing process. Finally, he wrote down the blacksmithing formula recorded in the jade strip. When Cheng Yu finally kept the jade strip, his heart was already somewhat impatient.
Because in the blacksmithing technique, blacksmithing also required the assistance of flames. And the more special the flame was, the higher the success rate and grade of blacksmithing would be.
Cheng Yu might not have any other strong points, but there was one point that no one else could compare to. That was because he possessed a mystical pill fire. With this point, Cheng Yu really wanted to try what grade equipment he could refine using the Six Phoenix Spiritual Flame. If he was able to refine a spiritual tool grade equipment, he would really strike it rich.
Currently, the market price of a low-grade spiritual tool was at least 100,000 low-grade spiritual stones. If Cheng Yu had this ability, he wouldn't need to worry about not having enough spiritual stones to bring back.
However, he didn't have any blacksmithing materials on hand. Furthermore, this place wasn't suitable for blacksmithing. Cheng Yu suppressed the impulse in his heart and closed his eyes to meditate.

On the east side, a group of men and women were brandishing their swords to open up a path.
"Senior Sister, where do you think we will be able to reach this time? Will we be able to pass through Death Fantasy Ocean?" Tian Xing chopped down the weeds by the roadside as he spoke to Tian Xue who was behind him.
"This time, I had obtained the Heart Tranquility Pearl from my master. I believe we will be able to pass through that Death Fantasy Ocean," Recalling the Heart Tranquility Pearl, Tian Xue spoke with some confidence.
"Heart Tranquility Pearl?! Senior Sister, you are really capable. The Heart Tranquility Pearl is master's treasure. She was actually willing to give it to you. Master really dotes on you, "When Tian Xue held onto the Heart Tranquility Pearl, Junior Sister Tian Feng, who was following behind, couldn't help but speak enviously.
"How is it given to me? It's just that I borrowed it from her for this Death Forest training. When we return, I still have to return it to master," Tian Feng and Tian Ling had the same master as her. She didn't wish for this matter to cause any estrangement in their hearts. Thus, she opened her mouth to explain.
"Master also dotes on you. If it were us, we would definitely not be able to borrow it," Tian Ling spoke with some jealousy.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Everyone must be more vigilant. We have already ventured over a thousand kilometers into the Death Forest. In another thousand kilometers, we will be entering the Death Swamp. The demonic beasts here are all sixth rank, equivalent to Foundation Establishment Realm late stage cultivators," Tian Xue didn't wish to talk about those topics anymore. Instead, she shifted the focus back to their current environment.
"Senior Sister, there's no need to be so nervous. We have already entered this place three times. Even if we encounter a sixth rank demonic beast, with just the few of us here, wouldn't it be enough to deal with them?" Tian Xing spoke unconcernedly.
"Don't be careless. If it's just one or two, of course we wouldn't have to worry. But if a group of sixth rank demonic beasts appears, which one of us would be able to block them?" Tian Xue spoke with an extremely solemn expression.
"Uh … this …" Mentioning a group of demonic beasts, Tian Xing shut his mouth. Previously, they had personally witnessed a Golden Core Realm cultivator being dragged to death by a group of fifth rank flying demonic beasts. In the end, he was forced to self-detonate his Golden Core. Recalling that miserable scene, Tian Xing still had lingering fear.

Tens of kilometers away from Tianshan Sect, Shushan Sect's men were currently fighting with a huge python. Two of them were heavily injured as they leaned against a tree.
"Senior Brother Wuling, this huge python's skin is too hard. We can't cut through it," Wu Xuan's blood and Qi was churning as he brandished his longsword while gasping for breath.
"This python is a sixth rank demonic beast. In addition, it has a qi barrier protecting its body. Ordinary attacks will not be able to break through its defense. Everyone, get into formation. Five Elemental Killing Formation!" Jian Wuling also knew that they couldn't continue fighting like this. Seeing that there were still five people fighting, including himself, he hurriedly called out to everyone.
"Alright! Five Elemental Killing Formation! " When the other four heard Jian Wuling's words, they shouted out. Following the five elements, they set up the Five Elemental Killing Formation at each corner.
The Five Elemental Killing Formation was derived from the five elements of heaven and earth. Through the formation user, they would be able to display the might of the five elements of heaven and earth. This formation was mainly focused on offense. The five people in the formation would each display the might of one of the five elements.
"Pa ~ Ao ~ Ao ~" The five of them completed their formation. Each of them used the Five Elemental Killing Formation, striking out with metal, wood, water, fire, and earth attribute attacks. The faint red qi barrier on the huge python's body instantly shattered. The huge python was of the fire attribute. When it was struck by the water attribute killer move, it immediately let out a few roars of pain.
"Wu Hen! Attack its weak point! "Seeing Wu Hen's water attribute killer move, Wuling shouted at him.
"Ao ~ Ao ~" As expected, Wu Hen's water attribute killer move struck its weak point. The huge python let out a weird cry.
