Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 37: The Eagle and the Man
Goshawks are extremely wild, and falconers usually choose young goshawks that have not yet fully grown. These goshawks are less wild and easier to control and tame.

Like the goshawk in front of Jiang Yue, it is 70 centimeters long and its claws are bigger than human hands. It is definitely an adult goshawk. The look it gave Jiang Yue was extremely sharp and wild and untamable.

There is no doubt that it is extremely difficult to tame such a goshawk.

If you are not careful, you may even be killed by a goshawk.

"To be on the safe side, let's upgrade it first."

Jiang Yue looked at his panel. There were a total of four items in the martial arts column.

Black iron pile lv6, medicinal bath lv4, archery lv4, trap lv4, as for time, it is five years. After thinking it over, Jiang Yue decided to invest his time in the black iron pile.

Investing in the black iron pile refining method can gain strength most directly.

When using the method of medicinal bathing, the main focus is on exploring the pharmacology of medicinal materials, which is like sharpening the knife before chopping wood.

As for archery and traps, they are both methods of killing, and Jiang Yue feels that they are sufficient for the time being.

"It's a pity that there are no colorful bamboo shoots. If there were, a few medicinal baths would increase the progress by 10%."

Jiang Yue felt emotional.

This time he planned to do something different and try out what mode the panel's deduction was, so he simply moved a large wooden barrel and put many medicinal herbs he had picked in it.

Medicated bath!

That’s right, this time Jiang Yue plans to deduce the black iron pile in the medicinal bath.

If there were medicinal baths every day during the five years of the simulation, the growth would be extremely amazing, much greater than the growth from eating rice and pickled meat every day!

Just in case, Jiang Yue also placed enough medicinal herbs for a month's medicinal bath with him.

"Divine Seal, please help me deduce the Black Iron Stake."

Jiang Yue took off all his clothes and jumped into the medicinal bath, mumbling something in his mind.

[It took five years to deduce and strengthen the black iron pile. ]

[The first year: You are not a novice in standing meditation. You have been practicing Xuantie Stance for many years. However, you suffer from the lack of medicinal baths, and your strength is improving slowly.

This year, you have enough medicinal baths for a month!
In the first month, you break through to 70% of skin hardening.

By the end of the year, you are still 70% skin hardened, and you feel that medicinal baths are powerful and resources are important. 】

[The third year: Even without the medicinal bath, you still stand diligently, regardless of wind or rain, like a thousand-year-old black iron that has withstood wind and rain without wavering.

More than two years have passed, and you have reached 80% of your skin hardening. 】

[Fifth year: Your mastery of the Black Iron Stake becomes more profound, and you have already reached the Black Iron realm.

Thousands of grinds and blows, temper my skin!
In the trilogy of limit, recovery, and improvement, you reach the limit very quickly, but recovery and improvement are slow due to resource constraints. But you are not discouraged. You squeeze your physical limits countless times and recover yourself with rice porridge and pickled meat.

At the end of the fifth year, you have completed 90% of the skin hardening. There are only a few important points on your body that have not yet stimulated the blood and qi. You are only one step away from breaking through the skin barrier. 】

[End of deduction]

[Martial Arts: Black Iron Pile lv6→lv9]

Five years passed in a flash, but to Jiang Yue it was like a personal experience.

This is the magic of the panel.

Only a moment passed in real time, but Jiang Yue felt like he had gone through five years. The memory of these five years of practice was unforgettable, and even the muscle memory formed could be retained in reality, which was no different from his own five years of practice.

"Where are the medicinal herbs?"

Jiang Yue came back to his senses and looked at the medicinal herbs around him, and was shocked.

The medicinal herbs that were enough to sustain a one-month medicinal bath had all dried up and turned into gray powder.

"So that's it!"

Jiang Yue suddenly realized.

The resources you prepare can be used in the simulation, but they will not appear indefinitely. You should use as many resources in the simulation as you have in reality.

I guess apart from the guaranteed resources like rice porridge and pickled meat, you have to prepare all other resources yourself.

After figuring out the principle of deduction, Jiang Yue was in a good mood.

His mind moved slightly, his skin membranes swelled, a surge of warm current flowed under the skin, and qi and blood instantly covered almost all the membranes in his body.

"Only the head is left, and the Qi and blood there are not stimulated."

Jiang Yue felt it carefully.

Now that he has tempered his body by 90%, the toughness of his skin membrane has been greatly enhanced, and the area that can mobilize Qi and blood to enhance the defense of his skin membrane has also reached 90%. But he still has weaknesses.

The weak points are the head and somewhere in the lower body.

Once the membrane is tempered to 100% and the skin barrier is broken, the whole body will be invulnerable to swords and guns without any flaws.

"Pay attention to your head, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Jiang Yue took a look at the goshawk standing in the cage and prepared to start training the hawk.

"Xiaotian, go watch the door. If someone knocks on the door, come and call me. If you're hungry, go to grandpa's house to eat."

"Wang-"

Jiang Yue carried the cage and walked into the inner room.

If one wants to train the hawk, he must do it in a small and cramped room, so that the hawk cannot fly and its strength is reduced to only one tenth. Only then will Jiang Yue have the confidence to control the hawk that suddenly takes off.

When he got into the house, Jiang Yue opened the cage door and placed a few pieces of specially processed musk deer meat and a bowl of water in front of the cage.

The goshawk stood in the cage, its sharp eyes full of wildness, staring at Jiang Yue without any concealment.

Jiang Yue sat opposite the goshawk, looked at it quietly and fought back.

A man and an eagle, their eyes converged, with only a few pieces of musk deer meat and a bowl of water between them.

During the period of training the falcon, the falconer must stay awake and keep staring at the goshawk 24 hours a day. By controlling its hunger and sleep, he can slowly make the goshawk surrender and lose the wildness in its eyes.

It is said to be training an eagle, but in fact it is also training a person.

It usually takes seven or eight days, or even ten days or half a month, to tame a goshawk. During this period, the falconer does not sleep and only eats simple meals and drinks clean water.

As for Jiang Yue, he has just started the first step.

The man and the eagle stared at each other like this. Time ticked by, and in the blink of an eye, six hours passed. Even the crowing of roosters could be heard, but the man and the eagle still did not move.

Another six hours passed and the goshawk finally moved.

However, the goshawk was not unable to resist hunger, but was really sleepy. It adjusted itself into a comfortable posture and wanted to sleep in the cage.

But this is a duel of willpower! Why would Jiang Yue let the goshawk sleep and recuperate?

Jiang Yue took out a hemp rope, hung up the eagle cage, and made a simple device. He sat on a bench, grabbed the rope with his right hand, and when he moved it, the cage would shake. The goshawk inside couldn't sleep at all and could only stare at Jiang Yue fiercely.

His eyes were sharp and wild, especially when he looked at Jiang Yue, his eyes were filled with strong hostility.

In this way, Jiang Yue didn't sleep, and the goshawk couldn't sleep either, and the man and the hawk endured for four days.

After four days, Goshawk had become listless and his eyes were wandering. Jiang Yue was not in a good condition either. He had two big dark circles under his eyes and looked exhausted.

But Jiang Yue is still one step ahead, because he has food to eat, while Goshawk has no food to eat.

"No sleep allowed!"

Jiang Yue let out a low shout and shook the rope with his right hand, and the sleepy goshawk was immediately awakened.

The feeling of being extremely sleepy and yet unable to sleep made the goshawk feel extremely miserable. No living creature could withstand this kind of pain.

Another two days passed and the goshawk had reached its limit.

It moved its claws slightly, stretched its neck out of the cage, grabbed three pieces of musk deer meat and swallowed them into its stomach, and drank a few sips of water.

"it is good!"

Jiang Yue was pleasantly surprised.

The goshawk's eating is a major improvement!

This means that the goshawk's spirit and body have reached their limits, and its arrogance is about to be wiped out.

Jiang Yue looked at the goshawk eating and tried to stretch out his bound hand to touch the goshawk's head, but he was immediately met with sharp and vigilant eagle eyes.

"Good boy, you still don't accept it."

Jiang Yue narrowed his eyes, withdrew his hand, and watched the goshawk eat quietly with an extremely calm mentality.

Because he has succeeded. As long as the food is eaten, the goshawk will surrender sooner or later!

These musk deer meats have all been specially processed by Jiang Yue. Inside the musk deer meat are cotton and hemp ropes. When the goshawk eats them, it cannot digest them at all. The cotton and hemp roll in its stomach, scraping away all the oil and water in its intestines.

In this case, the goshawk will become hungrier and hungrier the more it eats, and it will become more and more unable to bear the hunger. In the end, it will have only two options: to submit to Jiang Yue or to eat Jiang Yue.

But Goshawk’s spirit and body are exhausted, how can he fight Jiang Yue?
From the moment the first bite of musk deer meat entered its stomach, it was a foregone conclusion that the goshawk was contracted.
