Seven Horn Mountain.
Xiao Chen walked all the way to the top of the mountain. After cultivating the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation, his perception was much stronger than usual. He could clearly feel the abundant Spiritual Energy in the mountain forest. At this moment, he was looking for a place with the most abundant Spiritual Energy in the periphery of the mountain range.
Although he did not succeed in condensing his Martial Spirit yesterday, he did not give up. In the Compendium of Cultivation, aside from the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation, there were also methods to refine various medicinal pills.
Along the way, he discovered that the medicinal herbs in this world were no different from the ones recorded in the Compendium of Cultivation. As long as he cultivated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation for a period of time and refined the most basic flames to refine pills, with the help of medicinal pills, he might be able to condense his Martial Spirit.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen sensed that the Spiritual Energy was extremely abundant in an area about 500 meters in front of him. When he raised his head, he saw that the vegetation there was lush and the leaves were luxuriant. The trees growing there were much thicker than the surrounding trees. Xiao Chen grinned. He had finally found it. He pushed aside the branches in front of him and quickly rushed forward.
When he got close to the area with abundant Spiritual Energy, Xiao Chen stopped. This kind of place would normally have strong Spirit Beasts. The perception of Spirit Beasts was much stronger than that of humans. It was impossible for them not to sense it. They would definitely occupy such a good place to cultivate.
He had to find it. The strongest Demonic Beasts in the periphery were only Rank 2, which was equivalent to a peak human Martial Disciple. With Xiao Chen's current cultivation, coupled with the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation, he could find an opportunity to kill it.
A cool breeze blew by, causing a few leaves to dance. Xiao Chen sniffed, and there was actually a trace of the smell of blood in the wind. However, the smell of blood seemed to have existed for a long time and had become very faint. If not for Xiao Chen's sensitive sense of smell, he might not have been able to smell it.
Could it be that the Spirit Beasts here have already been killed by someone? Xiao Chen thought suspiciously. He took a few steps forward and finally saw the dead Spirit Beast under a tree.
After taking a closer look, Xiao Chen was shocked. The dead Spirit Beast was a Twin-tailed Spirit Fox. Looking at the wounds on its body, there was only a horrifying sword mark on its neck. It had actually been killed by a single sword strike.
The Twin-tailed Spirit Fox was an existence at the pinnacle of Rank 2 Spirit Beasts. It was famous for its ghostly speed. It could be said that it had no natural enemies in the outer region of Seven Horn Mountain. Furthermore, this kind of spirit fox was extremely intelligent and cunning. If it encountered a strong opponent, it would definitely escape immediately.
However, in its current situation, it was clearly killed by a sword the moment it was discovered. It died on the spot and didn't even have a chance to escape. Thinking of this, Xiao Chen couldn't help but shiver.
The Twin-Tailed Spirit Fox's speed was extremely fast. How fast did a sword have to be to be able to kill it in one strike? To die on the spot, this person was at least a Martial Master.
Suddenly, a soft sound came from behind him. He felt a sense of danger. Not good! With a thought, Xiao Chen quickly circulated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation. A warm current was transmitted to his feet. With a push, his body soared into the air.
Xiao Chen used both his hands to grab onto a tree branch that was over two meters tall. With a gentle swing, his body somersaulted in the air and landed lightly on the tree branch.
He touched his back. There was a sword wound on his back. The wound was not deep, but it was bleeding quite a bit. Looking at the blood on his hands, Xiao Chen took a deep breath. If he had not dodged fast enough, he would have been chopped in half at the waist.
Xiao Chen looked down and saw that the person who attacked was a girl. She was not more than 20 years old. Her facial features were picturesque, and her skin was as fair as jade. Her fine black hair was tied into a ponytail, like a swallow's tail resting on her shoulders. Her face was as pretty as a flower.
Coupled with the green attire on her body, she looked like an otherworldly fairy. However, her eyes were filled with killing intent, cold and sharp. Under her gaze, even the air seemed to turn cold.
The girl held a slender sword in her hand. It flickered with a faint cold light. Occasionally, moonlight would flow on the blade of the sword. This sword was actually a Spirit Weapon.
In the Tianwu Continent, there was a special ore called the Moonstone. When forging a weapon, as long as a blacksmith mixed in a little Moonstone powder, the quality of the weapon would improve by leaps and bounds, becoming a Spirit Weapon.
The reason why a Spirit Weapon was strong, aside from its sharpness, was because it could merge the energy of the wielder's Martial Spirit together, raising the strength of the cultivator to the extreme.
This person seemed familiar. Xiao Chen searched through his memories for a long time before he finally found some information about this girl. Seeing that the girl in front of him was about to make a move, he quickly said, "Cousin Yulan, don't make a move. I am Xiao Chen, have you forgotten?"
The First Elder's daughter, Xiao Yulan, was a distant cousin of Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen was not familiar with her. In his memories, this cousin seemed to be very antisocial from a young age. After the age of ten, he rarely saw her. He only heard that she was bitterly cultivating and was very mysterious.
Xiao Yulan frowned slightly, as though she was thinking about something. After a long time, she sheathed the sword in her hand. Her vermillion lips parted slightly as she said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Cousin Xiao Chen. What are you doing here?"
Seeing her sheathe her sword, Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief. He jumped down from the tree and said, "I saw that the Spiritual Energy here is more abundant, so I wanted to cultivate."
"Cousin, if you come to a place with more Spiritual Energy in the future, you must be more cautious. These places usually have stronger Spirit Beasts guarding them." Xiao Yulan paused for a while, as though she remembered something. She took out a jade bottle from her bosom and handed it to Xiao Chen.
"This is a top-notch Golden Salve. It is very effective for the sword wound on your back. I have been cultivating here for the past few days and chased away many Spirit Beasts that wanted to snatch this place. Cousin, you can cultivate here without worry. I will take this bottle of Golden Salve as an apology. I will take my leave now."
Xiao Chen received the Golden Salve in his hand and looked at Xiao Yulan's departing figure thoughtfully. She killed the Twin-Tailed Spirit Fox with one sword strike. This cultivation was much stronger than the high-spirited Xiao Jian of the Xiao Clan.
However, why did she not show herself? Could it be that she had been cultivating in Seven Horn Mountain, fighting with all sorts of Spirit Beasts?
Xiao Chen thought about it carefully and felt that it was very possible. When Xiao Yulan first looked at him, it was as though she was looking at a Spirit Beast, without any emotions. If he had not called out her name, he would already be a corpse.
Whatever, I don't have much time left. The Spiritual Energy in this place is incomparably abundant. I should cultivate first. Xiao Chen found a thick tree and jumped onto it. He sat down cross-legged and circulated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Energy.
