In a mountain range that was rarely visited by humans, a human figure swiftly fell from the sky in front of a huge cave. After which, he landed heavily on the ground. Although his figure appeared a little miserable, his strength was also terrifyingly powerful.
The ground where he landed formed a huge pit. At the bottom of the pit, a human figure wearing a black robe was half-kneeling. Only after the frightening force on his body was removed did the human figure stand up while panting.
"Roar! Human, leave this place! "
Just as the human figure stood up, a huge beast roar that was filled with enmity was transmitted from deep within the cave in front of him.
The roar was like thunder as it rolled over. It blew up a thick cloud of dust that swept toward the human figure in the pit.
"Hu …"
Just as the cloud of dust was about to attack, a cool breeze suddenly rose around the human figure. It swept the cloud of dust into the air and agglomerated into the shape of a long dragon that suddenly exploded in the distance.
The human figure lifted his face. A pair of dark black eyes looked toward the deepest part of the cave. His gaze was calm.
Xiao Yan's pale face carried an exhausted expression. After the repeated big battles, his body's recovery ability had increased significantly. However, the great exhaustion of his Dou Qi and physical strength had caused Xiao Yan to descend into a weak state.
Now, he urgently needed to find a quiet place to recover. However, before this, he needed to retrieve something.
His footsteps did not pause as Xiao Yan walked directly toward the interior of the cave. Within it, the Magical Beast that had let out a furious roar was also angered by Xiao Yan's actions.
"Insignificant human, you actually dare to be presumptuous here. You are seeking death!"
A rough and heavy beast roar was transmitted from deep within the cave. Soon after, a fierce Dou Qi wave surged out from deep within the cave. Xiao Yan directly ignored it. His black robe did not move and his footsteps were as steady as usual. Soon after, an enormous beast appeared in front of Xiao Yan with heavy footsteps.
"Swoosh!"
However, without waiting for the enormous beast to do anything, Xiao Yan flicked his finger. A purple-gold figure immediately shot out. It was as steady as a cannonball as it forced the enormous beast back.
Boom!
With a loud bang, the mountain above Xiao Yan's head suddenly shook violently. The huge body of the giant beast was actually deeply smashed into the mountain.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …"
Immediately after, a few more explosive sounds rang out. It sounded like fists hitting flesh, and the dull sound of collision made people feel a burst of pain.
Amidst the muffled collisions, miserable roars could be heard. From this, one could tell how much pain the giant beast was in.
With a thought, the sounds of collisions in the depths of the cave finally stopped. Then, there was the sound of rushing wind, and the Northern King quickly returned to Xiao Yan's side.
Xiao Yan's footsteps did not stop. Only when he arrived at the side of the huge beast did he stop. He turned his head to take a look. At this moment, the huge beast was embedded into the mountain with its body covered in wounds. Soft painful cries repeatedly sounded.
"It's just a superficial wound. He won't die, right?"
Xiao Yan's expression was indifferent as he spoke in a flat tone.
Hearing this, the giant beast's body couldn't help but tremble. Although the voice sounded harmless, after seeing how powerful the Northern King was, it was terrified.
The giant beast's body gradually shrank. Then, it turned into the appearance of a middle-aged man. However, the man's face was bruised and swollen. He lowered his head, not daring to look at the person in front of him.
"My … my lord, I have eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai. Please …"
"Alright, I don't want to waste my breath with you. If you want to live, then go out and stand guard. Don't let anyone come near. Also, I'll borrow your Muscle Cleansing Powder."
After quickly instructing, Xiao Yan entered the depths of the cave without any hesitation. When the middle-aged man heard Xiao Yan's words, he stood there in a daze for a long while. His heart instantly sank. However, in the end, under Xiao Yan's powerful pressure, he left the cave with a heart full of grievances. However, he didn't dare to escape alone, so he could only obediently stand guard at the entrance.
He was helpless. First, someone had barged into his cave, then he was beaten up for no reason. Now, he was even asking for his things. Who could accept such a thing? If it weren't for the fact that the other party's strength was suppressing him, he would have fought with his life on the line.
However, for the sake of survival, he endured it in the end.
Life was like this. Painful blows would always appear in front of you at the most unexpected moment. You wouldn't be able to make any preparations. However, this was the price of survival …
In the depths of the cave, Xiao Yan directly came to a seemingly inconspicuous giant rock in the cave. He ordered the Northern King to move the giant rock away. Immediately, a giant stone pool appeared in front of Xiao Yan.
Within the stone pool, there was a pile of white powder that looked like lime. As the giant rock was moved away, a strange smell wafted out from within.
Smelling the strange smell in the air, Xiao Yan's face didn't reveal any strange expression. Instead, a tinge of surprise flashed across the depths of his eyes.
This Muscle Cleansing Powder was much more than what he had expected. As such, it was sufficient for his needs.
After the repeated big battles, Xiao Yan's fighting strength might have risen quite a lot during this process, but the injuries all over his body were extremely shocking. Forget about the external injuries, but the damage to his internal organs required a period of time to recover. Other than this, the Qi Paths in Xiao Yan's body had also suffered quite a great amount of damage during the big battle earlier. This was not something that could be easily recovered by relying on his body's recovery ability alone. Xiao Yan might have some medicinal pills that could repair his Qi Paths, but due to the tier being too low, they could not be of any use. Hence, he had come all the way to this place.
Just like its name, the Muscle Cleansing Powder had the miraculous effect of cleansing one's meridians and marrow. The medicinal properties contained within could be integrated into one's meridians and bones, strengthening one's physique and increasing one's overall toughness. Many elixirs that were used to expand one's meridians would often use the Muscle Cleansing Powder as the main ingredient. Of course, that effect could only be achieved after Xiao Yan refined it into an elixir. Before that, its effects were limited to repairing and increasing the toughness of one's meridians.
However, with Xiao Yan's current situation, it was obviously impossible to refine it into an elixir. Therefore, he could only choose to directly swallow it and refine it.
With no other choice, Xiao Yan did not hesitate at all. He opened his mouth and a suction force immediately gushed out. A large clump of powder was sucked into Xiao Yan's mouth. Immediately after, it was like a large clump of sand as Xiao Yan swallowed it with great difficulty.
The instant the Muscle Cleansing Powder entered Xiao Yan's body, the powder rapidly transformed into a strange yellow-brown energy. It began to flow in all directions within Xiao Yan's body. As the enormous energy continued to flow, it even affected the injuries in Xiao Yan's body that had yet to recover. This caused the latter's face to involuntarily twitch violently.
Tightly clenching his teeth, Xiao Yan forcefully endured the waves of pain that were transmitted from his body. He began to mobilize the 'Heavenly Flame' within the vortex, driving the milky white energy to the various meridians in his body. Only then did he use the 'Heavenly Flame' to slowly refine it.
