C26 Mountain Entering

When night fell, Lin Xiu finally returned to the tavern.

After hurriedly eating dinner, Lin Xiu returned to his room and sat cross-legged on his bed. He silently circulated the Thousand Layers Refinement Method to speed up the absorption of the Pill's spirit energy.

What he had encountered today was simply too bizarre. Not only did he obtain a Xuan Artifact and formed a good relationship with an enigmatic Master Blacksmith, he even accidentally beheaded the leader of the bandits he had once met.

Through today's battle, Lin Xiu also discovered that when using the Wind Shrouding Fist on his opponent, it actually reduces the output of his own elemental energy. Although it only saves about 10% of his elemental energy, it's better not to look down on this portion of elemental energy since most times, 10% of his elemental energy is enough to determine victory or defeat in a battle!

And after experiencing such a bitter battle, the absorption of the Yuan Power in his body, and even the Spirit Pill, had increased in speed. In less than a few days, it would probably be completely absorbed, and that would be when Lin Xiu broke through to the late stage of the Blood Refining Stage.

… …

The next day, Lin Xiu's group of five got up early, packed their luggage, and had breakfast together with Lin Wentian. Then, the five of them headed straight for the vast Black Wind Mountain Range.

Black Wind City was actually still a long way from Black Wind Mountain Range. With the strength of the five people, it would take them at least two hours to step into Black Wind Mountain Range.

Along the way, Lin Feng kept showing off his newly obtained treasure sword to the crowd. He would then run in front of Lin Yang and boast, "Lin Yang, do you believe that if we fight again, you will be defeated by my sword in ten moves?"

After a while, he went in front of Lin Shan to provoke him: "Big guy, I must wash away my shame in this exam and let you experience my power."

Everyone did not comment on this matter. However, their originally somewhat nervous mood had become a lot more relaxed after he made a ruckus.

Along the way, even Lin Shan would occasionally take out his hammer and carefully wipe it, as if the hammer was his fiancée. Lin Xiu was the only one who was not interested in this. Compared to their weapons, the Xuan Artifacts he had in his hands, the Wind Shrouding Gloves, was a cheat.

"Lin Xiu, I heard from the manager of Heavenly Artifact Pavilion that you went to a weapon store yesterday. Did you find a weapon that you could use?" Lin Feng's words caused everyone to turn their attention to Lin Xiu. The five of them were very curious.

"I got lucky and got one." Lin Xiu, on the other hand, didn't keep them in suspense. He confidently took out a Wind Shrouding Fist.

However, the Wind Shrouding Fist set was not infused with any elemental energy. It looked no different from an ordinary piece of black iron, causing everyone to sigh.

However, what Lin Xiu didn't expect was that Lin Yuv, who was the most taciturn along the way, noticed something.

"Lin Xiu, this is a glove, right?"

"Haha, Lin Yuv, what's with your gaze? You're only looking at this lump of iron and you still want to use a gauntlet?" "I think Lin Xiu is going to use this iron lump to smash people." Lin Feng pursed his lips.

Lin Yang and Lin Shan also had a face of disbelief.

With a flushed face, Lin Yuv could only look at Lin Xiu, hoping that Lin Xiu would help him out of this predicament.

"You don't have to say. Among all of you, Lin Yuv is the most knowledgeable. This is indeed a pair of gloves." With that, Lin Xiu injected a trace of soul force into the glove.

Seeing the constantly changing "iron lump" in front of them, Lin Feng and the other two opened their mouths wide.

However, Lin Xiu turned around and curiously looked at the slightly weaker Lin Yuv. "Lin Yuv, how did you notice that I'm not a lump of iron in their mouths, but a pair of gauntlets?"

At this time, Lin Yuv seemed to have finally regained some face. With a confident tone, he said, "You are the best at using your fist. Since you got a weapon that you can use, it should be a pair of gloves."

While they were joking with each other, their relationship had grown closer by quite a bit.

Two hours later, they finally arrived at their destination.

The five youths stood in a row, looking at the vast mountain range before them. They could faintly hear the angry roars of Demonic Beast that echoed from within the mountain range from time to time, and their hearts immediately became spirited.

"Everyone, take care. You must return alive." Lin Shan was the first to speak.

"Come back alive." Lin Xiu, Lin Feng, and Lin Yuv also said.

With the exchange of their mutual respect, the atmosphere had also become a lot more solemn.

He wanted to break through to the late stage of Blood Refining Stage here, and more importantly, he wanted to kill three Demonic Beast s of the Bone Quenching Stage. The other four people also had their own trial goals, or perhaps targets that they themselves had set for themselves.

The green mountain in the distance looked beautiful, but no one would really treat this place as a place to have fun, because this was the Black Wind Mountain Range where Demonic Beast roamed freely!

It was rumored that other than a large number of lower three stage Demonic Beast, within the Black Wind Mountain Range, there were even the figures of Middle Third Stage Demonic Beast. However, countless treasures of heaven and earth still attracted the frenzied pursuit of many experts.

It was rumored that other than a large number of lower three stage Demonic Beast s in the Black Wind Mountain Range, there were even the figures of Middle Third Stage Demonic Beast s deep within the mountain range. However, countless treasures of heaven and earth still attracted the wild pursuit of many experts, and countless warriors died at the mouths of the Demonic Beast s due to greed every year.

But even so, the Black Wind Mountain Range still attracted a large number of adventurers. The skin, bones, and spirit herbs with various effects of the Demonic Beast could easily accumulate tens of thousands of gold coins, and the enjoyment, women, and status that gold coins brought, made people become infatuated with them. As time passed, the strong became stronger, and many terrifying people with great willpower at the brink of death were also created.

The moment he entered the mountain range, Lin Xiu saw a large number of adventurers walking out from the outer parts of the mountain range. The moment he entered the mountain range, Lin Xiu saw a large number of adventurers walking out from the outer parts of the mountain range.

Ignoring these people, Lin Xiu walked past the other teams indifferently. During this time, he met a few decent teams. Seeing that Lin Xiu wanted to go into the mountain by himself at such a young age, he reminded him. After thanking them for their good intentions, Lin Xiu didn't stop and resolutely embarked on his journey.

As they went deeper, the human aura became less and less. Lin Xiu tightened his backpack and smiled at the small beast that suddenly appeared in front of him. He didn't have any intention of taking action.

It was a snow-white little beast with a purple horn on its forehead. Lin Xiu had seen the number of Demonic Beast that was introduced at the Martial Skill Pavilion at home and knew that this was a unicorn that could only mature to the Blood Refining Stage.

According to the book, unicorns were gentle and would not take the initiative to attack humans. Having just entered the mountain range and met such a cute little guy, Lin Xiu couldn't help but be in a good mood.

He took out a few pieces of dried meat from his bag and slowly walked in front of the unicorn. Then, a few steps away from the unicorn, Lin Xiu put down the dried meat and gently looked at it.

Unicorn's gentle big eyes were filled with suspicion. First, he looked at Lin Xiu and Xiu warily, and after confirming that Lin Xiu did not have any evil intentions, he finally strolled over to the jerky. He bent his hairy body over and sniffed the jerky with his little red nose, then his eyes suddenly lit up.

Carefully licking the jerky, the little guy finally couldn't resist the temptation of the food anymore. It quickly ate up the jerky and stared at Lin Xiu as if it wasn't satisfied yet.

Lin Xiu was also amused by the cute little guy in front of him. He picked out a few pieces of dried meat that were bigger from the bag, but he didn't throw them on the ground this time, instead, he walked forward a few steps tentatively. Knowing that he was going to walk in front of the little beast, he shook the dried meat in his hands and said to the little horned beast, "Little guy, it's not too hard for me to touch you after eating my dried meat, right?"

After saying that, he placed the dried meat in front of the small horned beast. Lin Xiu's left hand gently caressed the smooth fur of the small horned beast.

The small horned beast stretched out its front paws in a human-like manner and started to gnaw on the jerky with its two tiny claws. It didn't resist Lin Xiu's actions at all.

Not long after, after the small horned beast finished all the meat, Lin Xiu took back his left hand and smiled to the little guy in front of him: "Little guy, it's not safe here. Go back early. I still have to continue on the road, so I can't accompany you."

The little guy who was human saw through Lin Xiu's good intentions. Then, he seriously sniffed the smell of his claws and became intoxicated.

Lin Xiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the scene in front of him, so he could only take out another piece of jerky from his bag.
