  "Gale Chop!"

  A wave of pure spiritual energy turned into sword qi and swept out, instantly sweeping past a few meters and landing on the White Scaled Python's body. In an instant, the White Scaled Python was split into two, splitting into two halves.

  However, because of his poor vision, Ye Xuan's accuracy was not high, the broken part of the White Scaled Python was only its tail. With this, the White Scaled Python fled even faster.

  "The consumption of a rank 5 martial art is great. At its peak, I should be able to see the bottom after using 10 times of spiritual power. As for the current me, I can probably only use it two or three times. " Ye Xuan thought for a while, then used the Ye Family's movement martial arts to chase up.

  "Gale Chop, die!"

  Ye Xuan's eyes turned cold, and he suddenly brandished his sword.

  A stream of light flashed past, and a crisp sound rang out.

  This time, the White Scaled Python's head was cut into two halves and it died instantly.

  "Rank 5 martial arts are indeed powerful." Ye Xuan joyfully walked over and directly swallowed the body of the third phase White Scaled Python.

  Seeing the extent of the increase, he also revealed a satisfied expression as he muttered to himself: "Not bad, not bad, this White Scaled Python is equivalent to twenty or thirty Rank Three Demon Beast, it would be better if there were more."

  After engulfing the White Scaled Python's corpse, Ye Xuan was also thinking of finding a place to rest. However, at this moment, he suddenly discovered a cave in front of him.

  "Cave? Could it be the lair of this White Scaled Python?"

  He focused his mind, it seemed like the White Scaled Python was threatened and wanted to escape back to its nest, but unexpectedly, it was chopped into the nest by Ye Xuan.

  Since there was a nest, then there might be other White Scaled Pythons inside. He had heard that White Scaled Pythons usually lived together with two other pythons, and if there was one left, it was an unexpected harvest.

  "I can still use Gale Slash twice more, and even if I don't use it, I can still make the White Scaled Python flee. Hmm, I should first recover my Spiritual Energy, just in case."

  Ye Xuan made his decision, but he couldn't help but take out a bottle of Dan to recover his spirit energy.

  Just now when he killed the White Scaled Python, he had only increased the upper limit of his spiritual energy.

  He took the Dan and used the Ye Family's techniques to quickly recover his spirit energy. After a long while, he stood up and entered the cave.

  This cave was not big, but what surprised Ye Xuan was that in the depths of the cave, there seemed to be something that was emitting a faint light.

  "There might be something good!" Ye Xuan was looking forward to it.

  Other than Demon Beast s, there were also a few other Treasures in the wilderness, and they were all the raw materials used to refine Dan.

  Ye Xuan walked into the cave for a while, and then he heard something different. It was the White Scaled Python's hissing sound.

  "There really is a White Scaled Python …" Ye Xuan thought, and then came to the corner and looked around.

  Sure enough, in the depths of the cave, there was a white scale python coiled around. And the light source was a stone that was coiled up in the middle by the white scale python.

  "A rock emitting black light. It seems to be some kind of ore. The scales of the White Scaled Python have become extremely hard. It seems that it was affected by it."

  Ye Xuan could immediately tell what was wrong, and immediately, he pulled out his sword and rushed out.

  However, in the next moment, he discovered that something was wrong. This White Scaled Python seemed to be much larger than the one he had just killed. Even its body reached five meters.

  "Hiss hiss."

  Seeing that a human had barged into its territory, the White Scaled Python stuck out its tongue and swam towards Ye Xuan.

  Seeing the White Scaled Python pouncing towards him with its mouth wide open, a light flashed in Ye Xuan's eyes, and she launched a Gale Chop at the snake's head.

  "Clang!"

  The Sword Qi struck the White Scaled Python's scales, producing a metallic sound. This time, Ye Xuan's attack actually failed to break its defense.

  "Oh no, it's a Rank 5 Demon Beast!" Ye Xuan immediately reacted. Moreover, this White Scaled Python was probably the equivalent of the middle stage of the fifth stage of the Martial Dao, or the peak of the fifth stage of the Martial Dao.

  While Ye Xuan was still in shock, the White Scaled Python had already rushed to his side and bit down. Fortunately, the leaf had reacted rather quickly and moved its leg away in advance, otherwise, its venomous teeth would have pierced his thigh.

  Ye Xuan was shocked by the White Scaled Python's strength, but he did not lose his reason.

  Right now, there were only two options before him.

  One, immediately turn around and run, running with all your might.

  2. Quickly cross the White Scaled Python and swallow the glowing black rock.

  If everything went well, he might be able to directly level up to the middle of the fifth stage of the Martial Dao, and then his spirit energy might be able to break through the White Scaled Python's power.

  However, this was a huge risk, because he did not know what this stone was. If he could not upgrade it, then he would be in danger.

  "Forget it, just look at this rock. It's no ordinary thing. Let's go all out!"

  Ye Xuan made up his mind. He immediately stepped on the snake's body, and then, with a powerful stomp, he pounced towards the black boulder. Clang!

  "Hiss hiss!"

  The White Scaled Python also gave in to Ye Xuan's plan, waving its head and chasing after him.

  When Ye Xuan landed, the black boulder had already fallen into Ye Xuan's hands, and was immediately devoured by him.

  Chapter 13 - Trouble Finding

  "The Host devoured a single Black Light Essence Ore and received 5 points in Devour!"

  "Ding! Host has broken through to the middle of the fifth stage of Martial Dao!"

  In an instant, even though Ye Xuan's aura had increased a bit, the strength of the spirit energy in his body had also increased dramatically.

  "Hiss hiss!"

  When the White Scaled Python saw that its own item had been lost by Ye Xuan, it immediately opened its bloody mouth, and bit towards Ye Xuan's head, as if it wanted to directly swallow Ye Xuan whole.

  "Gale Chop!"

  Ye Xuan raised the longsword in his hand and a sword aura even sharper than before slashed out, instantly slashing across the White Scaled Python's body.

  "Hiss!"

  A muffled sound rang out as the head of the White Scaled Python flew over, and its body was separated from its body!

  Instant kill!

  Looking at the still moving snake head and body on the ground, Ye Xuan wiped off his cold sweat. Seems like he had gambled correctly, that black boulder was indeed a good thing.

  Five Devouring Points, this meant that the price of the black stone was around five million silver taels.

  "What a disgusting animal. Even its head was chopped off, and its body and snake head could still move. If it was not careful, it would have been bitten."

  Ye Xuan shook his head helplessly.

  Snakes were a unique species. If a part of the body was separated from the body, it could maintain its movement function for a period of time. Therefore, the beheaded tongue could also react or spit out the snake's tongue.

  Right now, Ye Xuan already had five points in Devour Points. He immediately spent three points on it in exchange for a skill called the Hand of Devour.

  In the future, as long as he touched it with his hand, it would be very convenient to engulf it.

  In addition, the devouring process could level up, allowing him to devour an entire region.

  Not only that, the Devour Points could also be exchanged for Devouring Space, it was somethin
g similar to Heaven & Earth Ring, but much safer.

  Ye Xuan placed his hand on the snake's still swaying body and swallowed it. Then, he pierced through its head with his sword and swallowed its head.

  "As expected of a fifth stage Demon Beast, it has improved quite a bit."

  Ye Xuan nodded in satisfaction.

  Originally, he only needed around five hundred thousand silver taels to breakthrough, but now that he had acquired something like five million silver taels, he had directly broken through to the intermediate stage of the fifth stage of the Martial Dao.

  Furthermore, he was probably not far from reaching the peak of the fifth stage of Martial Dao.

  The Devouring System was indeed a good item!

  However, the resources needed to level up were too huge. Five million silver was enough to raise an ordinary person to the sixth stage of Martial Dao.

  After tidying up the mess, Ye Xuan also looked around, but did not discover anything.

  Then, he left the cave and found a tree to rest in the forest outside.

  The night passed without incident, and on the second day, Ye Xuan woke up early and continued his hunting.

  Now that he had broken through to the middle of the fifth stage of the Martial Dao, he had almost reached the peak of the fifth stage of the Martial Dao.

  With the Hand of Engulfment, Ye Xuan became more vigorous in killing the Demon Beast.

  However, things were not that simple.

  "Brother, when I went out to make things more convenient, I noticed a young man killing an armored bull. However, the moment after that, the armored bull disappeared."

  In a forest in the Lianyun Eighteen Mountain Range, a skinny man ran in front of a male Knife Scar and said.

  "He's gone? Is there something wrong with your eyes? " The Knife Scar male was startled and asked with some surprise.

  "No, the Armored Bull is a third stage Demon Beast, it's even bigger than us two. I can't be mistaken …" The petite man said with a serious expression.

  "Abruptly vanishing? If you aren't wrong, then there is only one possibility!" The Knife Scar man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "Heaven & Earth Ring!"

  The skinny man also quickly nodded his head: "That's right, that's right, only the Heaven & Earth Ring can do that. Big brother, this time we met a treasure, someone actually has the Heaven & Earth Ring!"

  The Heaven & Earth Ring was an extremely precious item that everyone in the world had heard of, but had never seen before.

  Yu Jin who was the protector of the Heaven Origin Sect had one, but his identity and background was extremely mysterious. It was reasonable for him to have a Heaven & Earth Ring.

  Moreover, perhaps even a sect master of a sect did not have a Heaven & Earth Ring. However, it was a little impossible for it to appear on the body of a little kid who came to the Lianyun Eighteen Mountain Range to gain experience.

  "Are you sure that kid lost an armored bull?" The Knife Scar man could not help but ask again.

  "I'll use my head as a guarantee, I definitely didn't see wrong. Also, big brother, we don't do that many things. Anyway, there's no one here, how about …" The skinny man raised an eyebrow.

  "Fine, kill him!"

  A single Heaven & Earth Ring was priceless, if they really got it, then they could definitely become a part of the Strongman.

  As for the little boy that the skinny man spoke of, he was actually Ye Xuan. Just now, when he was devouring the Demon Beast's corpse, he was accidentally seen by the skinny man.

  Immediately, the two of them picked up their weapons and chased after him.

  But at this time, Ye Xuan was still looking for the next Demon Beast to kill, completely unaware the danger was nearing him.

  "Mm? Footsteps?"

  Ye Xuan, who was looking for prey, suddenly felt that something was off. He immediately frowned and turned his head to look, only to see two figures following him out of the forest.

  These two people were the skinny man and the Knife Scar guy from before.

  "Little brother, please wait a moment." Seeing Ye Xuan, the petite man also shouted loudly before jogging over.

  Ye Xuan frowned, he sized the two of them up, and realised that they were both around forty years old. As for strength, he could not tell.

  "Stop!"

  Ye Xuan suddenly stretched out his hand, signalling the petite man to stop. Although he had not been in this world for a long time, he was not an idiot who had just come out of it after fusing with the memories of the unlucky ghost.

  In the wilderness, there would often be discordant incidents, such as killing people for their treasures.

  "What's the matter?" Ye Xuan looked at the skinny man who had stopped twenty meters ahead of him and asked loudly.

  The petite man revealed a harmless look and said, "Little brother, it's like this. Our map was accidentally lost, so we wanted to ask you if you have any extra maps of the Cloud Eighteen Mountain Range?"

  "Map?"

  Hearing this question, Ye Xuan's brows loosened. He then took out a sheepskin scroll from his bosom and threw it at his feet, saying, "Brothers, it is only right for us to help each other out when we are outside. I will leave the map here.

  After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.

  If these two really did ask for his help because they lost the map, then he was happy to help because he had a spare map on him.

  However, if the two of them wanted to do him harm, it was better to stay away from them.

  Chapter 14 - Kill!

  "Damn, this brat is so vigilant. The bag on his back is obviously for clothes. It must be used to fool people." The skinny man said carefully.

  "That's right. However, that treasure sword of his is likely quite expensive. It should be an Inferior Grade weapon." The Knife Scar man's gaze was also quite vicious, seeing through everything with one glance.

  "Then we …" Glimmers danced in the skinny man's eyes.

  A low rank mortal weapon was worth a hundred thousand taels of silver, and even if they entered the Eighteen Lian Yun Mountain Range once, it would only be worth ten thousand taels of silver. Killing a person would cost ten thousand silvers, even if there was no Heaven & Earth Ring, it would still be worth it.

  "Sneak close to him. When he discovers us, we will kill him quickly. We won't give him any chance!" The Knife Scar guy tightened his grip on the blade in his hand.

  "Alright!"

  The skinny man nodded, then lowered his footsteps.

  They estimated that Ye Xuan was only around fifteen years old. Even if the latter was a disciple of a clan, they would normally only be at the third level of Martial Dao, while the other was at the fourth level of Martial Dao.

  As for the two of them, one was at the middle of the fourth stage of the Martial Dao and the other was at the Fourth Peak Level, so killing Ye Xuan was an easy task.

  Ye Xuan who was about to turn around and leave also jogged a bit, but soon felt that something was wrong and immediately turned back.

  He only saw that the skinny man and the Knife Scar man had instantly increased their speed and were charging towards him.

  "Good heavens, you really want to kill me for my treasure. F * ck you, don't think that I'm easy to bully. Since you want to die, then I don't mind cutting you open!"

  Ye Xuan's anger rose, although he had never personally killed before, the unlucky ghost had killed quite a few bandits before. Furthermore, this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak, if you did not kill someone, you would be killed.

  With that, Ye Xuan pulled out his treasure sword and prepared to fight.

  He could tell that both of them were around the fourth stage of the Martial Dao and he should be able to handle them.

  In the tenth stage of the Martial Dao, every time there was a big breakthrough, the progress was huge. However, each level had three small realms. This gap was not very obvious, so there would often be geniuses that would jump ranks to challenge and defeat the strong.<
br />
  Right now, although Ye Xuan was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, his strength was much higher than the two of them. Before the two of them even got close, he had already directly launched an attack.

  A few ordinary sword qi slashes flew towards the two of them. These sword qi slashes were not very strong, so they were scattered by the two men's weapons.

  However, the faces of the two men instantly turned pale.

  They had underestimated Ye Xuan!

  "If he doesn't do it, he'll do it again and again. Kill him with everything we have!" The Knife Scar man snorted.

  He could feel that Ye Xuan's strength was not ordinary. Just from those few slashes, the two of them probably did not have the ability to unleash that kind of attack.

  "Unfortunate ghost can be considered a genius and has some understanding towards battles. Even though my cultivation realm is higher than the other party, I do not have the advantage in numbers. Thus, it is the best method to make the other party lose staff in an instant!"

  Ye Xuan looked at the two of them getting closer and muttered in his heart. Soon after, his gaze landed on the skinny man, because he was one of the two who was relatively weaker.

  "Try this move!"

  When the petite man was only ten meters away from Ye Xuan, the latter also instantly rushed out. With a wave of his right hand, a wave of powerful spirit energy instantly tore through the air, chopping towards the petite man.

  Gale Chop!

  "What?" "Be careful!" The Knife Scar man bellowed with his eyes wide open, he could see that this was no small matter.

  Swoosh!

  With a flash of cold light, the Gale Chop swept past the skinny man's body. The skinny man's legs reflexively paused for a moment, and then he felt a chill down his spine.

  "Shua!"

  The petite man's body was cut into two halves by the Gale Slash, then he fell to the ground. Although he did not die instantly, he was not far away.

  "Brother!"

  The eyes of the Knife Scar man turned red, he turned his head and attacked Ye Xuan. The blade in his hand swung out a few times, slashing out one after another, ready to tear Ye Xuan into shreds.

  However, this was simply striking a rock with an egg!
