In the Nameless Forest, a fourth-level fierce beast resembling a white wolf seemed to sense something and suddenly turned to look in a certain direction.
"Swoosh!"
In the instant it sensed something, a flash of sword light pierced through the air.
Along with the splattering of blood, the head of this low-level fierce beast was directly cleaved off.
Beside the corpse, a figure flew past without pausing for this low-level fierce beast.
"Faster! Faster! My sword can be even faster!"
There was a gleam in Lu Qinghe's eyes.
Man and sword unite.
Not only the sword is quick, the person, also needs to be quick.
As for the body of the low-level fierce beast just now...
The weight is about 60 kilograms, the energy contained in the blood of the low-level fierce beast is slightly stronger than that of a wild beast, the price of the meat is three silver per kilogram, but the profit is only one gold and eighty silver.
It looks like a lot, but if he carries such a fierce beast's body on his back, there is no need to think about challenging stronger fierce beasts and breaking through the realm of swordsmanship.
"Hiss!"
While dashing, a python about ten meters long swept over, and a foul smell could be detected from a distance away.
Lu Qinghe's figure was not slow, his gaze was as sharp as lightning, and in the instant that the python swept over his figure, the Moon Cold Sword stabbed out instantly, piercing eleven consecutive times at the seven-inch point of the python!
"Sizzle!"
The mysterious energy burst forth, and the edge of the twelfth sword cleanly cut off the ten-meter-long python in midair, causing it to fall to the ground and groan in pain.
"This is the sixth fierce beast, although they are all level four or five fierce beasts, the frequency of their appearance... is too frequent..."
In the middle of the Lianyun Mountains, level four or five fierce beasts could be counted on one's fingers.
But here...
They were everywhere.
Lu Qinghe's figure paused, picked out the gall bladder of the python, and put it in his bag, then looked in the direction of the mountain range obscured by trees...
It's three hundred and fifty li from the second level.
The Xiantian Mountain Range, which has the widest range, is not the first level, but the second level where advanced fierce beasts are entrenched.
The first level spans thousands of miles.
With his thoughts turning, Lu Qinghe's figure did not slow down at all, and he stepped out again.
However, at a distance of less than three kilometers from where he stepped out, a herb growing next to a stream caught his attention.
"Bone Forging Grass, medium-grade herb, selling for one hundred and sixty gold."
At present, in front of Lu Qinghe, there were actually three large and two small stalks of Bone Forging Grass.
"It's impossible for Bone Forging Grass to grow in a place with low spiritual energy."
Lu Qinghe's expression gradually became solemn, and he quickly put the Bone Forging Grass in his bag.
And in places with abundant spiritual energy, there must be strong fierce beasts entrenched, establishing their territory.
Finally, not even a hundred meters away from the Bone Forging Grass, he found a pile of dung.
This was the dung of a bone-eating beast.
This kind of fierce beast, as an adult, was at the fifth level, and its highest level could reach the eighth level of fierce beast.
He was already certain that the area he had chosen might be the territory of a certain type of powerful fierce beast.
The dangers on the periphery were not as imagined, and Lu Qinghe dared not rush forward with all his might as before. As he advanced cautiously, he had already concentrated his mind and kept a close eye on all the movements around him.
After advancing another thirty-six li, when he passed through an area of dense forest where the sun did not shine, the encountered danger confirmed his guess.
A pair of deep green eyes, like a ghost, gradually approached under the cover of the trees, and when Lu Qinghe locked onto its figure, it was already within ten meters.
"Level five fierce beast!"
This fierce beast resembled a leopard, with its entire body covered in pitch black. A row of bone spurs protruded from its head and back, a glance was enough to know that they were extremely sharp.
Especially its sharp claws, when it stepped on the old tree, it effortlessly left a faint claw mark on the trunk.
"Swish!"
In the instant when this level five fierce beast entered Lu Qinghe's attack range, the Moon Cold Sword, instantly stabbed out.
Strike first and earn an advantage!
"Bang!"
The body of this upper-level fierce beast shook, with this sword piercing through its back bone spurs, emitting the sound of metal striking gold and iron.
"Swish!"
Strike! Strike again! Strike again!
Thirteen Flowing Light Swords!
If one sword fails, Lu Qinghe instantly strikes again!
The famous sword Moon Cold, interwoven into a brilliant sword shadow!
The surging force and true energy, after being fully tempered in his bones and body, surged forth, causing every single sword of Lu Qinghe's to be like piercing through the air. Sword after sword, they emitted bursts of subtle explosions of energy.
"Slash!"
Together with a burst of shout, the true energy all over Lu Qinghe's body poured out like a flood.
A sword was pierced, causing the void to burst!
The bone spurs on the back of the black level-fierce beast burst forth to pieces before the edge of the Moon Cold Sword.
"Three Rays of Brilliant Sword!"
Then, Lu Qinghe's sword suddenly shook, and the sword skill slashed down directly. In an instant, three of the thirteen flowing sword rays merged into one, completely tearing apart the body of this mid-level ferocious beast.
The embryo of a minor killing move.
"Roar!"
The mid-level ferocious beast let out a painful howl, rolling its body, seemingly trying to escape from Lu Qinghe's sword.
"Eight Steps Rushing Cicada, Meteor Stabbing the Moon!"
Light shot out of Lu Qinghe's eyes, the bones all over his body making a crackling sound. His figure instantly moved forward, using his finger as a sword, ruthlessly pointing down at the head of the mid-level ferocious beast.
"Crack!"
True energy penetrated, and Lu Qinghe's finger ruthlessly shattered the skull of the mid-level ferocious beast.
"Hiss!"
The cold moon sword was pulled again, and the mid-level ferocious beast, already on its last legs, was completely bisected, cutting off any possibility of a life-threatening counterattack.
Nevertheless, Lu Qinghe still sheathed his sword and quickly retreated, immediately creating distance between himself and the mid-level ferocious beast.
The physique of ferocious beasts far surpasses that of humans. Under a desperate counterattack, it is beyond what an ordinary person can withstand.
Generally speaking, only those at the level of refining true energy sixfold have the ability to kill a fifth-stage ferocious beast.
"Ow…"
Repeatedly suffering such heavy injuries, the body was cut in half, and the mid-level ferocious beast finally lost its strength to resist, whimpering on the ground for a moment before dying.
"Phew."
Lu Qinghe took a deep breath.
He shook the sword, flicking the blood off the moon-cold sword, and then took out the bone-strengthening and blood-activating ointment from his bag to apply it to his right hand that held the sword.
Just now, with consecutive sword strikes using all his strength, not only did it consume a large amount of his physical strength and true energy, but it also strained his muscles. Especially using his finger as a sword to perform the Meteor Stabbing the Moon, his fingers were likely to swell by nightfall.
"This ferocious beast is at least at the fifth level, with a strong and resilient body. If I had not refined 126 bone fragments before coming to the Immortal Mountain Range, my finger would have surely been broken with that point just now."
Lu Qinghe looked at the corpse of the fifth-level ferocious beast in front of him and felt secretly shocked.
Even though this ferocious beast is at the fifth level, the pressure it exerts on him surpasses that of an ordinary fifth-level ferocious beast.
"The Meteor Stabbing the Moon sword skill is not suitable for close combat. It seems that I need to find a way to practice a sword skill using the finger for close combat. Otherwise, if I am approached by a ferocious beast, my situation will be extremely passive…"
While applying the ointment, Lu Qinghe summed up his gains and losses.
However, before he could finish applying the bone-strengthening and blood-activating ointment to his right hand, it suddenly sounded as if he had heard something, and the Moon-cold sword at his waist instantly unsheathed.
"Roar!"
In just a moment, a ferocious beast that was clearly the same as the previous black ferocious beast stared at Lu Qinghe with extreme anger. Its body was even more robust than the previous mid-level ferocious beast.
"One male and one female. The one just now was a female beast!"
Lu Qinghe's expression immediately became extremely solemn.
"Roar!"
Seeing its mate die in front of it, this ferocious beast appeared extremely furious. Along with a low roar, like a black storm, it rushed straight at Lu Qinghe, and before it could get close, the bloodthirsty aura was already overwhelming.
"Flowing Light!"
Sword light scattered in all directions.
The sharp edge of the moon-cold sword completely blocked Lu Qinghe's front.
However, Lu Qinghe quickly realized that he was wrong!
This mid-level ferocious beast was not only forty percent stronger than the previous one, but its back bone spurs were also unusually solid.
As its body rushed into the sword light that Lu Qinghe used to attack, it was like a dragon wagging its tail. When its back bone spurs collided head-on with Lu Qinghe's moon-cold sword, its forceful impact dispersed Lu Qinghe's sword skill. The force of the impact almost dislocated his sword wrist.
"A sixth-level ferocious beast!"
At that moment, Lu Qinghe keenly sensed a cold light flash before him.
"Not good!"
As he retreated, a searing pain extended from his chest down to his waist, and blood instantly blossomed at his chest.
"The human body is far from being comparable to that of ferocious beasts. It cannot be approached by ferocious beasts!"
As his thoughts turned sharply, Lu Qinghe was already trying to retreat.
But as he retreated, the ferocious beast's attack was even faster. At a critical moment, Lu Qinghe could only hold the sword horizontally in front of him.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a massive shockwave, fresh blood gushed out from Lu Qinghe's entire palm.
There was no more room to retreat.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Qinghe made a decisive move! His madly retreating figure abruptly stopped, then he moved forward, crashing fiercely into the robust sixth-level ferocious beast with his own flesh and blood before this ferocious beast could correct its killing blow.
Go the opposite way!
"Bang!"
A muffled sound spread out from the impact between a man and a beast.
Lu Qinghe could even hear the crisp sound of his own bones cracking clearly.
Even though his trunk bones and limbs had been tempered by strong forces, and had been repeatedly nurtured and maintained by innate true qi, this impact still caused his bones to crack, blood and qi to surge, and his internal organs to shift.
As a last-ditch counterattack to disrupt the attacking rhythm of this mid-level ferocious beast, Lu Qinghe dared not stop for a moment, pinching his fingers into a sword and aiming resolutely at the eyes of this mid-level ferocious beast to kill it.
A strong wind attacked, and the head of the black ferocious beast turned, Lu Qinghe's sword pointing exactly at its upper jaw. Accompanied by the sound of the bones splintering, the body of the black ferocious beast retreated from the tip of the sword, and its mind was muddled.
Ten fingers are connected!
The excruciating pain of the fractured bones caused cold sweat to appear on Lu Qinghe's forehead.
But at this moment of life and death, he completely disregarded it. The famous sword, Moon Cold, after forcing this ferocious beast back by a sword's length, stabbed out and pierced through the ferocious beast, blood gushing out. Then the blade swiftly rotated, intending to lift the ferocious beast into the air.
"Roar!"
Under the intense pain, this sixth-level ferocious beast suddenly roared, and its black tail whip fiercely struck, hitting Lu Qinghe's left shoulder. For a moment, Lu Qinghe felt as if he had been hit by a truck. Even though his entire body's bones and true qi were tempered, the bones in his left shoulder were almost completely shattered.
Left arm, useless!
Lu Qinghe was originally no match for the ferocious beast, and now with his left arm crippled.
At that moment, life and death hung in the balance!
