Chapter 156 I, Qin Ziling, am back again
Ten days passed like this, and it was already mid-June.
The weather began to get hotter, and the weather in the mountains was no longer continuous drizzle, but thunderstorms every evening.
Qin Ziling's accelerated pace finally stopped. Whether it was martial arts, Qi refining, or the way of the soul, the progress became very slow. Even though he still ate the flesh and blood of third-grade exotic beasts stewed with precious medicinal herbs every day, there was no effect.
“It seems that in the past two months or so, I have been constantly taking supplements day and night, and my body’s absorption has finally reached a limit. Unless I switch to eating fourth-grade exotic beast meat, I can only temporarily slow down for a period of time.
The mountains are dangerous and unpredictable. It is too early to hunt the fourth-grade beast now. Moreover, the way of cultivation should be relaxed and tense. It is time for me to go home!"
Seeing that there had been no progress for two or three consecutive days, Qin Ziling finally decided to end his retreat and return home.
This retreat lasted two and a half months.
When entering the mountain, in terms of martial arts, Qin Ziling's limbs and back were made of iron.
When he left, his limbs, chest, abdomen, back, skull and other parts had all reached the level of iron sheets, and his strength had doubled. His limbs, as the most carefully trained parts, had become even tougher.
If the chest and other parts are made of ordinary iron sheets, then the limbs, especially the fists and soles of the feet can be said to be fine steel that has been tempered hundreds of times.
In terms of Qi training, when entering the mountains, "The Evergreen Green Wood Technique" is the initial stage of true power, and "The Black Snake Mysterious Water Technique" is the realm of true power.
When he left, the "Evergreen Green Wood Technique" had reached the middle stage of true power, with the number of green tree shadows in his dantian reaching forty-six. The "Mysterious Black Water Technique" had also reached the middle stage of true power, with the number of black snake shadows in his dantian reaching forty.
In terms of soul, the realm seems to have not changed, but the soul has become more condensed and powerful, and the power and speed of driving objects have become faster and faster. The most important thing is that Qin Ziling has increasingly touched the threshold of distraction. That threshold is like a layer of thin paper, which may be pierced at any time.
As for the three-headed zombie , it has been sucking the essence and blood of exotic beasts these days. Qin Ziling even generously gave them some of the Eight Desolate Black Python and Four-eyed Green Toad that he captured later. In addition, the evil aura in the corpse-raising ring is strong now, and the three-headed zombie has a good foundation and potential.
When they left, the four heads of the silver corpse had become more and more pure, and they were one step closer to the intermediate silver corpse. The two long arms of Ape Dayuan Er had completely turned silver. The arms were the strongest part of Ape Dayuan Er's body. The two long arms were upgraded to silver arms, which meant that they were almost quasi-silver corpses and were not far from the real silver corpse realm.
…
A bright moon is in the sky.
Qin Ziling was dressed in black, leaping and running among the mountains and forests.
He is still used to traveling at night.
However, this time, he was no longer as cautious as before. Instead, he leaped through the woods, his long hair flying, his clothes rustling, looking indescribably high-spirited, unrestrained and carefree.
Although it is better to be cautious, being too cautious is actually a disease.
Qin Ziling's own strength and the three zombies in the corpse-raising ring have undergone tremendous changes. In the entire Fangliao County, perhaps only the county governor Pang Qiwei can fight him now. Why should he hide in the deep mountains at night?
Of course, after entering the city, he currently has a shallow foundation, is not fully grown, and has no strong backing. He cannot compare with people like Pang Qiwei who is the county magistrate, has strong soldiers and horses, and has a powerful background of a prominent family in the state capital. He still has to stay put honestly.
The sound of wind whistled past his ears. Qin Ziling's heart was burning with excitement as he recalled that there were six first-grade exotic beasts, half a second-grade exotic beast, a small mountain of specially made exotic beast meatballs, and some leftover Eight Desolate Black Pythons and Four-eyed Green Toads stored in the corpse-raising ring. He could train a lot of people when he returned this time. He was eager to go home.
The Eight Desolate Black Python and the Four-Eyed Green Toad were both very large, and their flesh and blood were rich in qi and blood energy. Even though Qin Ziling ate them every day and shared some with the three zombies, there was still some left.
"I, Qin Ziling, am back again!"
At four o'clock in the morning, the bright moon had hidden in the dark clouds. Qin Ziling stood on a hilltop, looking at Fangliao City crouching like a giant beast in the darkness in the distance. He made a heroic gesture, amused himself for a while, then took out a black gauze hat from the corpse-raising ring, put it on his head, slightly lowered the brim of the hat, and under the cover of night, strode towards the direction of Fangliao City.
After crossing several small hills outside the east city, Qin Ziling was about to turn into a small mountain road and take this road to Anhe Village outside the west city.
Suddenly, Qin Ziling stopped.
"Come out, everyone!"
"Very perceptive! It seems you have some status in the Yu family!" Qin Ziling's words had just fallen when four men in black, wearing gauze hats like him, jumped down from the woods on both sides of the mountain road in front of him.
A tall and thin man with a gloomy aura spoke in a cold voice.
"The Yu family? The Yu family from Fangqiao City?" Qin Ziling was slightly stunned, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"Hehehe, you are quite good at acting. Don't tell me you are not from the Yu family!" said the tall and thin man with a sinister smile.
"Of course I'm not from the Yu family!" Qin Ziling said, with an even stronger look of doubt in his eyes.
The Yu family is currently the second most powerful and prestigious family in Fangliao City. The head of the family, Yu Hongshan, is not only a great bone refining martial artist, but also holds the position of county lieutenant, in charge of the military forces of Fangliao County.
In Fangqiao City, who dares to specifically kill people from the Yu family?
But from the words of these people in front of him, it is not difficult to hear that they are the ones who are specifically sent to kill the Yu family. Moreover, the aura of these people is very obscure and cold. Qin Ziling feels like a motionless poisonous snake in the dark night, making it difficult to detect.
If Qin Ziling's five senses hadn't been exceptionally sharp, it would have been difficult to discover them in advance.
"Since you are not from the Yu family, why are you wearing a gauze hat in the middle of the night and acting so sneaky? Take off the gauze hat and let us see." The tall and thin man sneered.
"What a joke! I'm on my way openly. It's you who are hiding behind the rocks in the middle of the night. You are the ones who are sneaky." Qin Ziling said.
"No matter who he is, there's no need to say more, just kill him!" said an extremely thin man, without a trace of emotion in his voice.
Under the gauze hat, Qin Ziling's face changed slightly, and his eyes revealed a cold murderous intent.
Since he was reborn into this world, he has been decisive in killing and never shows mercy, but he also never kills innocent people indiscriminately. He only kills those who deserve to be killed!
This is also why, with his strength, after discovering the four people in advance, he did not take the initiative and kill the four people directly with thunder and lightning, but instead revealed their whereabouts.
Because there was no grudge between the two parties, the other party should be ambushing someone else, not him.
In fact, Qin Ziling also guessed that the people the other party wanted to ambush were from the Yu family.
It’s just that Qin Ziling didn’t want to kill innocent people, but the other party had no concept of killing innocent people. Killing him was just a trivial matter, no different from stepping on an ant.
Just when Qin Ziling's face changed slightly and he had real murderous intention, except for the thin man in black who was still standing there, motionless, the other three men in black suddenly had a strange aura fluctuation on their bodies, and then their figures gradually blended into the night, and disappeared out of thin air in the blink of an eye.
"What's going on?" Qin Ziling exclaimed, as if he was frightened all of a sudden, but in fact, the handsome face under the gauze hat was as calm as water.
Seeing this, the thin man in black sneered with contempt and looked at Qin Ziling as if he was an ant that was about to be crushed to death.
In the dark night, less than two meters away from Qin Ziling, three dim lights suddenly lit up and quickly captured his head, chest and back.
Those were three scimitars emitting a faint green light.
The green light emitted by the scimitar is captivating.
Just as the scimitar was coming as fast as lightning, Qin Ziling's figure suddenly changed strangely, as if he had disappeared suddenly.
In the dark night, the faces of the three knife owners suddenly changed. They turned their knives around abruptly, and danced knife shadows in the air, trying to protect themselves.
At this moment, the three knife-holding masters suddenly felt a chill coming from under their feet, and then, before they could react, they saw a flash of cold light on the ground.
The person they tried to assassinate before was like a poisonous snake from another dimension. It suddenly tore through the darkness and jumped out from the night, holding a sharp knife in its hand.
The blade is straight, with a curve at the tip and a reverse edge. The edge is thin and sharp, emitting a cold light .
The blade cut through the night, cutting through the legs.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" shrill cries rang out one after another, breaking the silence of the night.
Blood spurted out, and the three men in black whose leg tendons were cut fell to the ground.
Almost at the moment when the three men in black fell to their knees, Qin Ziling jumped up from the ground like a black snake. With a "swoosh", he arrived in front of the thin man in black who was watching on the side and was rapidly retreating when he saw the situation suddenly change.
The thin man in black was shocked again when he saw Qin Ziling's speed was so fast. He quickly retreated and raised his hand. A black dot shot out and then suddenly exploded in the air.
As soon as the black spot exploded, a terrifying air wave rushed in all directions. The air wave was as black as ink and extremely cold. Once a person touched it, it would be like falling into an ice kiln. Their hands and feet would be frozen and their blood circulation would be blocked.
Moreover, this air wave carried a trace of the breath of death as if it came from the Nine Nether Hell. Wherever the air wave passed, the grass and trees instantly turned withered and yellow, and there were also shrill ghost cries that sounded in the dark night, captivating people's hearts.
"This is..." Qin Ziling's heart moved slightly, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes under the gauze hat. He seemed to be unable to stop the car and rushed into the area covered by black fog.
This area is about six or seven meters in radius.
Seeing that Qin Ziling's attack was ruthless and his body movements were strange and superb, the thin man in black wanted to use the Yin Po Thunder to stop him so that he could take the opportunity to escape. However, he did not expect that the other party would dive into the black mist formed by the explosion of the Yin Po Thunder. He could not help but show a look of surprise and subconsciously slowed down his retreating body.
