C25 Three Life and Death Changes!

Yih Xuan looked at the Desolate Wood Python's corpse and started digesting the battle in his mind. This battle could be said to be his greatest battle. Whether it was endurance, eyesight, or grasp of the battle situation, it was far more than half a month ago when he first entered the Dark Night Forest. Although his cultivation base had not improved, Yih Xuan was confident that he could defeat him half a month ago. He definitely wouldn't need ten moves!

Yih Xuan's cultivation was still at the 1st level of the Profound Warrior Realm, but the profound strength in his body was already comparable to a Third Level of Profound Apprentice. His realm had already reached the Fourth Level of Profound Apprentice, and with the addition of his basic sword skills, his overall strength was already equivalent to the Early Fourth Level of Profound Apprentice. Half a month ago, Yih Xuan thought that with his current strength, there wouldn't be any danger in the outer perimeter of the Dark Night Forest. He could even fight a Fourth Grade Origin Beast.

However, as soon as he entered the Dark Night Forest, a Middle Third Grade Origin Beast Green Wolf gave Yih Xuan a blow on the head. This made Yih Xuan clearly realize that strength did not mean everything in a battle. If not for Yih Xuan using the Cloud Stabbing Force and Eight Steps Chasing the Wind in the end, that battle would have become the meal of that green wolf!

After that battle, Yih Xuan quickly adjusted his mindset and adjusted his position, placing his strength in a relatively reasonable place. Yih Xuan did not look for any more high level Origin Beasts. Instead, he looked for some Origin Beasts that he could defeat just now to hone his combat skills.

Ten days later, after experiencing dozens of battles of different sizes, Yih Xuan was able to fully display his strength. Stepping on the body of an early Fourth Grade Yuan beast, the Multi Colored Tiger, Yih Xuan could not help but feel high-spirited. But the sudden appearance of dozens of Third Grade Green Wolves in the surroundings caused Yih Xuan to fall to the bottom of the valley.

That time, Yih Xuan had relied on the Eight Steps Chasing the Wind. He had narrowly escaped the pursuit of dozens of Green Wolves. However, there were also dozens of claw marks on Yih Xuan's body. If it wasn't for the fact that he had a few healing pellets left behind by Yih Yun, Yih Xuan had no choice but to return to the sect. From then on, Yih Xuan was no longer full of confidence. He was constantly paying attention to his surroundings. This world, especially the Dark Night Forest. If he wasn't careful, perhaps he would be buried here forever.

Two days ago, a late Third Grade Blue Qilin Snake encountered Yih Xuan. At that time, Yih Xuan... He was able to fight a mid Fourth Grade Yuan Beast without being at a disadvantage. Facing this late Third Grade Blue Scaled Snake, Yih Xuan didn't care at all. It was only because Yih Xuan was still in the outer region that there were very few Fourth Grade Yuan Beasts. Helpless, Yih Xuan could only choose the Third Grade Origin Beast to train himself. Fortunately, there were still many Third Grade Origin Beasts in the outer region. Compared to his current strength, as long as he didn't encounter a group of Third Grade Yuan Beasts like the Green Wolves, Yih Xuan was completely fearless towards Third Grade Yuan Beasts!

However, this Blue Qilin Snake had poured a bucket of cold water on Yih Xuan. Although this Blue Qilin Snake wasn't very strong, it was only at the late stage of the third rank, but in the outer region of the Dark Night Forest... Even a late stage four elemental beast wouldn't dare to provoke it. Of course, there was no need for the wolf pack to provoke it. The losses were great, but the benefits were not much. Even though they were only Magic Beast, their intelligence was not high, but they were not that stupid. Hence... The Blue Qilin Snake could be considered an overlord level figure in the outer perimeter of the Dark Night Forest!

However, Yih Xuan at that time did not know about this. He only saw that the Blue Qilin Snake's cultivation was indeed at the late stage of the third rank. Its physical body was even weaker than ordinary Magic Beast of the same grade. Yih Xuan originally wanted to let this Blue Qilin Snake go, because its physical body was just too weak. There was no challenge at all. However, although there were many Third Grade Origin Beasts in the outer perimeter of the Dark Night Forest, that was only relative to the entire outer perimeter of the Dark Night Forest. Usually, it would take Yih Xuan a lot of time to find a level 3 elemental beast. It was not because of anything else, but because the Dark Night Forest was really too big. It was unknown how many millions of miles it travelled. Just the outer area of the Dark Night Forest was tens of thousands of miles wide. In such a huge place... It was quite difficult to find millions of Level Three Origin Beasts inside.

Just like that, Yih Xuan and the Blue Qilin Snake met. Yih Xuan had always looked down on the Blue Qilin Snake. He felt that the strength of the Blue Qilin Snake was really too weak. However, after confronting Lan Lin Snake, Yih Xuan knew that he was wrong. And it was very wrong. The Blue Qilin Snake only managed to stick out a ball of blue gas from afar, but Yih Xuan found that he couldn't move at all. Actually, when the Blue Qilin Snake spat out that ball of blue gas, Yih Xuan had already noticed that something was wrong and immediately blocked all the air holes in his body. But he was still a step too late. A small portion of the blue gas entered Yih Xuan's body through the holes that had yet to close. Less than five seconds later. Yih Xuan's entire body was completely paralyzed. Apart from his eyes, he couldn't move anywhere else.

Watching the Blue Qilin Snake approaching him step by step, Yih Xuan felt death so close to him for the first time. There was a hint of ridicule in the corner of the Blue Qilin Snake's eyes. The snake slowly opened its mouth, as if it only needed a gentle bite. It could keep Yih Xuan away from the world. Yih Xuan was extremely unwilling in his heart. Am I going to die like this? No! I am not willing! He wanted to pull out his sword. However, he couldn't even move his fingers, let alone pull out his sword.

At this moment, the Blue Qilin Snake was right in front of him. The putrid smell coming from its mouth hit Yih Xuan face to face. Yih Xuan revealed a look of despair. He never thought that his carelessness would cause him to end up in such a state. I am unwilling! But now, no matter how angry Yih Xuan is in his heart, it is useless. The Blue Qilin Snake is closing in bit by bit. Five meters. Four meters, three meters. Two meter, one meter.

The Blue Qilin Snake opened its mouth wide, wanting to swallow Yih Xuan whole. Yih Xuan closed his eyes in despair, ready to accept his impending fate. But at this moment, Yih Xuan felt his hand tremble slightly. Yih Xuan couldn't help but open his eyes.

A purple light flashed and the Blue Qilin Snake in front of him suddenly opened its eyes wide. Its body slowly split into two halves from the middle.

Yih Xuan looked at the scene in front of him in shock. What was going on? In the air, a purple-black long sword kept spinning.

Three life and death experiences had created the current Yih Xuan. Calm, careful, and serious. Everyone said that the improvement between life and death was the greatest, because one's entire heart would enter an ethereal state between life and death. This allowed one's strength to be maximized, and at the same time, it would also cause one's soul to transform. These three life and death situations... What it brought Yih Xuan was three of the deepest level of transformation in his soul.

Although these three changes in his soul didn't bring any substantial improvement to his cultivation base, the help it brought to Yih Xuan was far greater than the improvement in his cultivation base. Yih Xuan had never lacked the sharpness of the Sword Dao. However, it was easy to break when it was tough. Only when it was hard and soft could one walk further.

Yih Xuan had great perseverance, great determination, and great courage, but he only lacked great wisdom. A person who only knew how to kill was only a swordsman, not a swordsman. Swordsmen not only had to have the sharpness of the sword, but also had the wisdom of the sword. Only when the two were combined could one be called a real swordsman.

At this point, after experiencing three life and death changes, Yih Xuan finally completed the transformation from a swordsman to a swordsman. On the path of the sword, Yih Xuan finally took this crucial step!

Yih Xuan digested the battle very quickly and quickly cleaned up the Desolate Wood Python that had died. He knew that the commotion from the battle just now must have attracted all the living creatures in the surroundings. He had to clean it up as fast as possible. Snake teeth, snake scales, snake bones, snake flesh and blood were not spared at all. In any case, the space within his Primordius Ring was large enough. These could all be exchanged for money! It couldn't be helped, Yih Xuan was poor! He didn't have anything valuable on him. Yih Xuan kept killing Magic Beast, it wasn't like he didn't have any intention of making money.

Although Xuan Yun was the Diyuan Sword Sect's patriarch, Xuan Yun told Yih Xuan. He couldn't always rely on external forces. Was the truth the same as what Xuan Yun had said? Yih Xuan didn't know. Anyway, he was very poor right now. Except for when he entered the Dark Night Forest. Apart from the few life-saving items that Xuan Yun had given him, the only thing he had was the Magic Beast materials that he had obtained after killing the Magic Beast.

In just a short period of time, other than a few drops of blood that could still be seen on the ground, the incomparably huge Desolate Wood Python had already disappeared. Even the Demon Hunters who had stayed in the Dark Night Forest for a few years would probably have to admit their inferiority! This treatment was much more efficient than theirs!

Yih Xuan surveyed his surroundings. There were only a few large slapping marks left behind by the Desolate Wood Python. It could also prove how intense the battle just now had been. Yih Xuan was slightly touched, but he quickly calmed down. This small achievement... Yih Xuan no longer felt that there was anything amazing about it. After packing his things, Yih Xuan prepared to leave. But at this moment... A sparse sound was heard.
