In the dark night sky, the moon hung high up like a silver plate, shedding moonlight like water.
In the summer wind, the dense forest lightly stretched out its thick green leaves, and the waterfall flowed, but it could not cover up the noise of sandalwood crickets.
Fang Yuan stepped on the lush green grass, quietly approaching a wild boar.
This wild boar was burying its head, huffing and puffing as it dug into the green mud on the ground, looking for worms in the grass and mud.
Wild boars were omnivorous animals. Not only did they eat worms, they also stole bird eggs, and were good at preying on wild rabbits, mice, and even venomous creatures like snakes and scorpions.
Fang Yuan slowly approached this wild boar from behind.
Under the bright moonlight, the wild boar's grey and black fur could be clearly seen. Its body was strong and sturdy, its limbs thick and short. The mane on its back was long and stiff, and its ears also had sparse fur, standing upright like needles.
It was on all fours, and each foot had four toes, but only the middle two were on the ground. Its tail was thin and short, occasionally swinging it to chase away the surrounding flying mosquitoes.
Suddenly, it stopped digging into the soil to eat, and raised its head. At the same time, its pair of erect, pointy ears quickly trembled a few times.
Although Fang Yuan stopped in time, this wild boar still discovered him and quickly turned around, letting out a warning growl.
Fang Yuan was not surprised. Wild animals were not like domestic animals, they were all very alert. Especially wild boars, their sense of smell was very sensitive, and they could often find well-hidden nests.
Even if this wild boar did not hear anything, when Fang Yuan was within a hundred meters, it would be able to smell Fang Yuan's scent, and similarly sense Fang Yuan's presence.
Although Fang Yuan now had five Gu worms on him, the Spring Autumn Cicada, Liquor worm, Moonlight Gu, Little Light Gu, and White Boar Gu, his equipment was not reasonable or complete.
If he had a Qi Lock Gu that could conceal his scent, and a Silent Steps Gu that could conceal his footsteps, he would be able to silently get within ten steps of the wild boar.
However, with the addition of these two Gu worms, Fang Yuan would have to raise seven Gu worms. The consumption of Yuan stone would be too great, and it would be difficult to support.
Ordinary Gu Masters could only feed four to five Gu worms of the same rank. Thus, Gu Masters often did not move alone, but formed groups of five, with at least three people.
Within the team, there would be someone in charge of scouting, someone in charge of advancing, someone in charge of attacking, someone in charge of healing, and someone in charge of defending.
Fang Yuan did not stop and continued to approach the wild boar.
The wild boar growled, a lock of white mane visibly standing up on its neck, a symbol of its agitation.
Finally, when Fang Yuan approached and broke the bottom line of the wild boar's heart, the wild boar's front legs dug the ground three times, then it opened its strong four legs, lowered its head, and rushed towards Fang Yuan.
Its upper canine teeth were exposed, flipping upwards, forming two snow-white fangs. Under the moonlight, the fangs shone with a cold light, piercing towards Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan did not have any defensive Gu worms. If he was pierced by these fangs, his stomach would be pierced, and even his intestines would be pierced. At that time, even if he did not die, he would be heavily injured.
"Moonlight Gu." Fang Yuan's face was calm, and with a thought, the Moonlight Gu residing in his right palm immediately absorbed primeval essence, emitting a faint blue moonlight that reflected the moonlight in the night sky.
The wild boar rushed over, and Fang Yuan's right palm met it head-on.
With a swoosh, the moonblade flew out, hitting the wild boar's face, and immediately blood splattered.
The wild boar howled in pain, and turned its anger into motivation, charging even faster. In the blink of an eye, it was only a few steps away from Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan nimbly leaped to the side, rolling on the ground and flipping sideways!
The wild boar rushed straight past him, and with a bang, it directly hit a small tree behind Fang Yuan.
The small tree was only as thick as an adult's arm. After being hit by the wild boar, it immediately suffered a devastating blow, and the entire tree trunk broke apart, growing into two sections.
Fang Yuan stood up, quickly approaching the wild boar, and at the same time, his right hand continuously swung the moonblade.
The faint blue moonblade drew a straight line in the air, shooting towards the wild boar.
On the wild boar's black and gray fur, several thin and long wounds immediately appeared. The wounds were very deep, and scarlet blood continuously flowed out.
Fang Yuan used his high-grade primeval essence to activate the moonblade, and could instantly cut through the hardest bones of the human body. But on this wild boar, it could only cause flesh wounds, and could not harm the bones.
A small wild boar was already so tough, and the harsh living environment of this world was evident!
The wild boar growled, and once again rushed towards Fang Yuan.
As it ran, the bloody wounds on its body continuously tore open, and the boiling hot blood flowed out like it was free.
Fang Yuan used the same trick again, and with another flip, he dodged its attack.
Although the wild boar was tough, and had a fierce momentum, it had a weakness, and that was its weak ability to change directions. The faster it was, the harder it was to change directions. This way, almost every attack would be in a straight line. As long as the Gu Master was brave and careful, it was not hard to dodge.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh.
Every time the wild boar rushed over, Fang Yuan would swing his hand a few moonblades. This added new wounds on top of its old ones, and the angrier it got, the more blood it lost.
After a few times, its movements slowed down, and its roars revealed a sense of weakness.
"Little Light Gu."
This time, Fang Yuan not only activated the Moonlight Gu, but also mobilized his primeval essence, injecting it into the Little Light Gu.
After the Moonlight Gu was refined, it stayed in Fang Yuan's right palm, turning into a light blue crescent pattern. After the Little Light Gu was refined, it also stayed in his right palm, forming a milky white pentagram pattern.
At this time, dark green primeval essence was injected into the two Gu at the same time. The Moonlight Gu emitted eerie blue moonlight, while the Little Light Gu emitted a milky white light.
The milky white light blended into the moonlight, and the originally small moonlight immediately doubled in size.
"Go."
Fang Yuan slashed with his right hand, and an enlarged moonblade flew out.
The moonblade created by the Moonlight Gu alone was only the size of a palm. But with the help of the Little Light Gu, this moonblade doubled in size, and its attack power also doubled!
Swoosh!
The moonblade hit the wild boar's neck, and instantly sank into its black grey fur. Then it flew out three to four meters from the other end, and quickly dissipated in the air.
Puchi …
The wild boar stood on the spot, and froze for a moment. Then, blood gushed out like a rapid scarlet fountain.
It fell to the ground, half of its head cut off, and was washed away by the gushing blood. Only a small piece of skin and flesh remained.
A thick stench of blood assaulted his nostrils.
Fang Yuan did not dare to delay, and pointed at the wild boar on the ground. The White Boar Gu that was residing in his aperture immediately turned into a milky white light, and shot into the wild boar's body.
Fang Yuan stood on the spot, his face filled with nervousness and vigilance. Although the beast skin map indicated that this area was relatively safe, but there were always accidents in nature. What if a fierce beast was attracted by the stench of blood?
After a while, the White Boar Gu flew back shakily.
The wild boar had already lost more than half its original weight, and only its grey fur was left, as well as its innards. As for the wild boar's meat, most of it was eaten by the White Boar Gu.
But the strange thing was, even though the White Boar Gu ate pork that was a thousand times bigger than itself, its body size did not change at all.
Not even a drop of blood was on it, and it was still in that milky white ladybug form.
"After eating this, I'll come back five days later to slaughter the boar." Fang Yuan kept the White Boar Gu, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he took out a knife, and cut off the two tusks of the wild boar.
On the wild boar's body, there were three things that were worth a bit of money.
The first was the pork, the second was the fur, and the third was the tusks.
But now, the wild boar's meat was almost all eaten up by the White Boar Gu. The fur was also full of cuts from the moonblade, and even if it was taken off, there was not much meaning.
Only this pair of tusks had some value. It could be used as food for some Gu worms that ate teeth, or as an item for some Gu worms to advance.
Fang Yuan hid this pair of tusks in the secret cave in the rock crevice, and returned to the academy dormitory.
He did not sleep immediately, but sat cross-legged on the bed, and started to cultivate.
In the aperture, the primeval sea rose and fell, the tides rising and falling.
Fang Yuan was now a middle stage Gu Master, and after using the Liquor worm to refine it, he obtained upper stage primeval essence.
Thus, ordinary people of the same age would have middle stage pale green primeval essence, but Fang Yuan's primeval essence was upper stage dark green.
But after killing a wild boar, Fang Yuan's primeval essence was left with 23%.
A Rank one Gu Master's battle strength was not very strong. Or it could be said that nature's environment was too harsh. Although the moonblade could break bones, but to kill a normal wild boar, Fang Yuan had to use 20% of his upper stage primeval essence.
"White Boar Gu."
He closed his eyes, and his mind entered the aperture.
In the aperture, a dark green primeval essence rushed upwards, and poured into the White Boar Gu's body.
The White Boar Gu immediately let out a dazzling white light, and the white light shone on Fang Yuan's body. If seen from the outside, Fang Yuan's body was emitting a faint white light from the inside out.
Every inch of Fang Yuan's skin, every muscle, was bathed in this white light.
A numb and itchy feeling surged in Fang Yuan's heart. The white light transformed Fang Yuan's muscles, allowing the strength to enter his body bit by bit, and from then on, it would stay there, never to be lost.
But after a while, this numb feeling turned into pain. This kind of pain, at first it was numb like being electrocuted, and then it turned into an excruciating pain, as if every muscle was cut by a knife!
Fang Yuan hurriedly stopped the White Boar Gu.
Going too far is as bad as not going far enough.
The White Boar Gu could not be overused, and could only be used for 15 minutes a day. After this time, it would cause pain, and it would become more and more intense.
If he forcefully used it now, he might even die from the pain!
