Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 28 Deduction and Improvement
Tread-tap-

Half an hour later, the man and the dog gradually stopped and came to the bamboo forest where the colorful bamboo shoots were.

The majestic and colorful rooster had disappeared at this time. Jiang Yue carefully entered the bamboo forest and checked the trap he had set.

I saw the colorful bamboo shoots still inside the trap, and there were footprints of a rooster around them.

It was obvious that the big rooster was attracted by the colorful bamboo shoots, but out of caution, it just observed around the trap.

"This guy has already been tempted. It won't be long before he falls into the trap and is trapped."

Jiang Yue laughed secretly in his heart, took out a piece of stinky fart vine, fiddled with it slightly, to cover up the smell of his presence so as not to arouse the big rooster's suspicion.

According to Jiang Yue's estimation, in another three to five days, the big rooster would definitely not be able to bear it anymore and would be trapped in the trap.

By then, if you starve the rooster for a few days, you can definitely tame it easily.

After checking the traps in the bamboo forest, Jiang Yue took Xiaotian to the peach forest again. They were disappointed because no new peaches had grown in the forest yet, and a group of monkeys were active around the forest. Jiang Yue and Xiaotian were so scared that they ran away in a hurry.

At sunset, Jiang Yue brought Xiaotian back home.

"Refine the method. I don't know what will happen if I deduce the refinement method."

Jiang Yue returned to the house excitedly, and the divine seal panel appeared in his sight.

[Time]: 5 years

[Pet: Xiaotian]

[Life Essence: 6]

"Divine Seal, please spend five years to deduce and strengthen the Black Iron Pile."

Jiang Yue thought to himself.

[It took five years to deduce and strengthen the martial arts Xuantie pile.]

[Year One: You begin to practice the Black Iron Stake.

You first set up the black iron stake, your body swaying, trying to find your balance. Three minutes at a time, several hours a day, you are exhausted, but your faith is firm.

Your muscles ache and your bones seem to be protesting, but you grit your teeth and persevere.

Gradually, you can stabilize your body, and after persisting for more than a quarter of an hour, you gradually get a glimpse of the trick, and vaguely feel the mystery of the black iron pile. 】

[The second year: Your body shape has become stable, and you begin to feel the flow of breath when standing, and feel the fusion of strength and balance. You have a deeper understanding of the mystery of the black iron pile.

This year, you can stand in a fixed position for more than half an hour, but you often get injured.

You become more skilled and stronger. This year, you have hardened your skin by 50%.

[Third year: When you stand in the stance, your mind is clear, without sadness or joy, and you feel the changes in your skin membrane with your whole body and mind.]

[The fourth year: You reach a bottleneck, and you tend to feel irritable and unable to calm down when standing in a posture.

But you still persist and practice the standing meditation every day.

This year, you were absent-minded and made no progress in hardening your skin. 】

[Fifth year: You have adjusted your state and have made new breakthroughs in your understanding of black iron piles.

You stand there, every movement and stillness are full of momentum, like a piece of black iron that has been silent for a thousand years.

This year, you have completely understood the Black Iron Pile, and your comprehension is extremely profound. You have reached 60% of the skin hardening. 】

[The deduction is over. 】

【Black Iron Pile (lv6)】

Five years passed in a flash, and in reality only a moment had passed, but Jiang Yue's mind was filled with five years of memories.

During the past five years, he has worked diligently and practiced the Black Iron Stake assiduously, but he only ate rice porridge and pickled meat every day. He was able to improve his skin tempering by about 10% every two years.

"If there is no precious medicine, and you practice step by step, you will achieve 10% every two years, and it will take 20 years to break through the skin barrier."

Jiang Yue was secretly shocked.

The time limit given by Qimen to become a warrior is three years!
Fortunately, he was able to enter the mountains and forests to look for precious medicines, and he had time to deduce and improve himself, otherwise he would probably never become a warrior in his lifetime.

“My skin has become so much brighter!”

Jiang Yue looked at his arms and found that his skin was more than twice as white as before, and there was a warm current flowing under the membrane. Only the last 20% of the membrane in his whole body had not yet stimulated this warm current of qi and blood.

If all of them are activated, then the skin barrier will be broken.

Jiang Yue thought so, took out a conical arrow, and stabbed it hard into his arm, but only a little white mark was left on his arm.

You know, the conical arrow has a strong penetrating power, and it can even penetrate the skull of the prey. But even with such a conical arrow, Jiang Yue couldn't break his defense even if he tried his best.

And this is Jiang Yue’s relaxed state!
If he could use his mind to mobilize the qi and blood stimulated by the membrane and tighten the membrane, Jiang Yue estimated that even a two-stone strong bow and a conical arrow would be unable to break his defense.

"Five years of refining the technique, the improvement is huge."

Jiang Yue was ecstatic.

Now he is only 40% away from breaking through the skin barrier. If he is lucky, he can achieve it by taking a few precious medicines. It can be said that it is within his reach.

"Now, I can probably kill the black panther easily, and I'll have a better chance of going to Goshawk Cliff tomorrow."

"I just don't know if I can beat a big rooster."
-
The next morning, Jiang Yue got up at daybreak.

After he got dressed and washed up, he took Xiaotian to Lijia Village on the other side of Qingyang Town.

At this time, hundreds of people had gathered at the entrance of Lijia Village.

There were crowds of people and the scene was extremely noisy.

Yesterday’s old hunter, Li Tieya, and the rest were members of the hunting team that Jiang Yue formed at the market yesterday.

In addition to the old hunter's group, there were seven or eight hunting teams, each with as few as three or four people and as many as a dozen people, all waiting quietly at the entrance of Lijia Village.

Many of these people are from Qingyang Town. They came here spontaneously after seeing the notice from Luo’s Trading Company. There are also many veterans who have crossed mountains and rivers from Qing County. These veterans have been to Cangying Cliff several times and are very experienced.

Of course, everyone has the same goal, which is to pick as much Tianfeng grass as possible and sell it to the Luo family.

After all, a stalk of Tianfeng grass costs two hundred coins, which is really too precious.

When Jiang Yue brought Xiaotian here, he attracted a lot of people's attention.

"Tsk, what a handsome puppy."

"Stand up to shoulder height."

"What a mighty dog."

"Little brother, are you going to Goshawk Cliff as well? Do you want to join our hunting team?"

The crowd was talking about it, and many headhunters immediately extended olive branches to Jiang Yue, but Jiang Yue still came to Li Tieya's team as agreed. Seeing this, everyone sighed.

If there is a fierce dog in the team, the safety factor will probably be much higher.

"Brother Jiang, you are awesome. You can even get such a fierce dog."

Li Tieya winked at Jiang Yue.

"luck."

Jiang Yue smiled and asked, "When do we go into the mountains?"

"Let's talk about it after the Luo family arrives."

Li Tieya bared his iron teeth.

The group waited for less than a quarter of an hour before several hunting teams arrived one after another. The headhunter of one of the hunting teams was an old acquaintance of Jiang Yue!
Zhao Qilang!
The two looked at each other in surprise, but soon Zhao Qilang's expression changed. He pulled Jiang Yue aside and started to scold him.

"Erlang, are you crazy? How dare you do something like this?"

Zhao Qilang scolded, "You are different from me. Your family depends on you. If you die in the mountains, your grandfather and your brother will starve to death."

"Ah? Brother Qi, what's going on? I just came here to pick the Skywind Grass."

Jiang Yue was at a loss, looking bewildered.

Seeing Jiang Yue's bewildered look, Zhao Qilang was slightly stunned, sighed, and explained: "Erlang, picking Tianfeng grass on Goshawk Cliff is not such a simple matter. The poison barrier and the goshawk can take your life at any time. Not only that, people's hearts are even more terrifying. It's easy to go up the mountain, but it's hard to go down. You have never been in the martial arts world, and you must have been deceived. You brought Xiaotian with you, and you are probably being targeted now."

After hearing this, Jiang Yue finally understood.

Picking the Tianfeng grass is secondary. The most important thing is whether you can bring the Tianfeng grass down the mountain alive.

However, he had just refined the skin to 60% yesterday. Facing these hunters whose skins had not been refined yet, as long as he was careful, there would probably be no problem.

Zhao Qilang wanted to persuade Jiang Yue to leave, but Jiang Yue rarely encountered such a profitable business, and his strength increased greatly, so how could he leave easily?

"Okay, Shichiro, leave this damn thing alone."

The fourth uncle of the Zhao family who came with Zhao Qilang glanced at Jiang Yue and said, "It's hard to persuade a damned ghost with good words. He wants to die, and no one can stop him. He just hopes he won't end up disabled and need Qilang's help to survive."

"Haha."

Jiang Yue smiled and ignored Uncle Zhao. After all, in the eyes of the Zhao family, he was a poor orphan, and Zhao Qilang was the leader of the younger generation of the Zhao family. Although the two had a good relationship, the Zhao family did not want Zhao Qilang and Jiang Yue to have too much contact.

"It's okay, Seventh Brother. I'm sure."

Jiang Yue smiled at Zhao Qilang.

"Hey, Erlang, take care of yourself. If you encounter any problems, you can call me."

Seeing that he could not persuade Jiang Yue, Zhao Qilang could only secretly decide to help Jiang Yue if he had the chance, so that Jiang Yue would not die in the mountains.

Ten minutes later, another acquaintance of Jiang Yue arrived. The one-armed old man who was collecting mountain products at Luo's hunting market came to the entrance of Lijia Village with a dozen of his men and three or four horse-drawn carriages.
