Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 55: The ruined temple has a new lease of life
“It now appears that this area is black panther territory.”

Jiang Yue thought as he walked: "Now that the black panther is dead, this territory is vacant. Perhaps it will attract other beasts."

That's how nature works.

Not to mention that the black panther is dead, even if the black panther is alive, those ambitious carnivorous beasts will keep testing and gradually invade its territory.

Now that the black panther is dead, the scent, body fluids, and scratches he left in this territory will gradually dissipate, and new beasts will soon take over this territory.

It is precisely for this reason that Jiang Yue remains very careful and does not become lax after killing the black panther.

The man and the dog walked to the Kuoyeyuan Waterfall. Xiaotian suddenly became energetic, his nostrils twitching constantly, and he bit Jiang Yue's trouser leg.

"Found something good?"

"Take me to see it."

Jiang Yue also became interested.

"Wang-"

Xiaotian shouted excitedly and took Jiang Yue to the east side of the waterfall.

After walking for about forty or fifty miles on the mountain road, passing through the forests, and passing countless forests, strange rocks, and caves, Xiaotian finally stopped.

What appeared before Jiang Yue's eyes was an abandoned Buddhist temple.

The area around the abandoned Buddhist temple is quiet and desolate, with wild grass growing among the broken walls.

Through the ruins, one can see the mottled Buddha statues in the temple. The surface of the old wooden fish has long been mottled, and the originally smooth wood has become rough due to the erosion of time.

The prayer flags have become dull and old, and the scripture patterns on them are somewhat blurred. They flutter weakly in the wind, accompanied by the rustling of leaves blown by the wind.

And in the center of the desolate Buddhist temple, a withered, black ancient tree stood there.

This ancient tree is three meters tall and looks like it was struck by lightning. It is completely charred, but on its withered branches there is a patch of extremely eye-catching tender green leaves.

Jiang Yue only felt that the tender green leaves were so soft that he felt comfortable just by looking at them.

"Wang-"

Xiaotian barked and stuck his nose out at Jiang Yue, which was very humane.

"That leaf, is it a precious medicine?"

"Wang-"

After getting Xiaotian's affirmation, Jiang Yue did not act rashly.

According to previous experience, there are always ferocious beasts surrounding the precious medicine, like the big rooster next to the colorful bamboo shoots and the monkeys in the peach forest. If you are not careful, you will die here.

"call"

Jiang Yue signaled Xiaotian to step back, and he restrained his breath, entered a "breath-holding" state, and observed around the temple.

"Centipedes, woodlice, and longhorn beetles."

After looking around, Jiang Yue found that there were only some reptiles that would appear in dark and damp places, so he felt relieved.

"Wang Wang Wang-"

Xiaotian roared hurriedly, urging Jiang Yue to pick them quickly.

The trees in the distance from the temple had begun to sway, the leaves rustled, and vaguely one could see sturdy monkeys swinging from the trees.

"Another group of monkeys!"

Jiang Yue was shocked, and Hu Xingzhuang's decadent and lazy mood disappeared instantly!

He took a sudden step forward, almost approaching the dead tree in one step, and stepped onto the trunk of the ancient tree with another step. With a hook of his finger, the tender leaves were pulled off.

【Time + 6 years】

[Time remaining: 6 years]

A young leaf, six years of time!

Before he could be surprised, the group of monkeys had appeared in front of Jiang Yue. Monkeys wearing monk robes and holding Zen sticks, demon-subduing pestles, crescent-shaped sticks and the like chirped from the trees and rushed towards Jiang Yue angrily.

These monkeys have shiny fur and are about the same size as the monkeys in the peach forest. The things in their hands seem to have been taken from the Buddhist temple.

A quick glance showed that there were thirty or forty monkeys. The trees in the forest behind were still shaking and rustling. It was estimated that there were at least forty or fifty monkeys behind. They were unstoppable, so the best thing to do was to run away!
Jiang Yue put the young leaves into his arms, turned around and ran: "Run!"

"Wang-"

The man and the dog once again demonstrated the importance of speed by running wildly in the mountains and forests. Jiang Yue made full use of the walking in the mountains and forests feature brought by his magical power of leading a sheep. No matter how dangerous the mountain road was, he would rush past it as if he were walking on flat ground.

Xiaotian has evolved and is even faster than Jiang Yue.

The man and the dog ran wildly, and the monkeys behind them were swinging from the trees to chase them, and their speed was equally fast.

As long as there are trees, these monkeys are like fish in water, and they are like tigers with wings. Several times they even almost caught up with Jiang Yue.

After running for a quarter of an hour, Jiang Yue finally ran out of the lush woodland and came to the waterfall river under the broad-leaved plain.

Without the trees, the monkeys naturally couldn't catch up with Jiang Yue and could only watch Jiang Yue flee.

"Wow wow wow!"

The monkeys stood on the treetops at the edge of the woods, screaming and venting their anger, watching Jiang Yue's figure gradually disappear in the distance.
-
In the stinky vine cave, the man and the dog rested for a while and recovered completely.

"These monkeys really hold grudges."

Jiang Yue muttered inwardly, playing with the emerald green leaf in his hand.

These green leaves are worth five years of time.

This is the most valuable precious medicinal plant that Jiang Yue has obtained so far, but he has never seen it before so he doesn't know what effects these emerald green leaves have.

"I'm not afraid of poison anyway, so I'll try it."

Jiang Yue stroked his chin, thinking that five years would not be enough to cause him to explode and die from the excessive effect of the medicine like in the novels, so he simply put the green leaves into his mouth.

The green tender leaves melt in your mouth.

In an instant, a strong hot current rushed to Jiang Yue's limbs and bones.

Almost instantly, Jiang Yue's body turned red due to the heat and white smoke came out.

These emerald green leaves actually contain such violent energy!
Jiang Yue hurriedly stood on the Tiger Walking Posture and walked quickly to consume and transform the huge amount of medicinal power.

The Tiger Walking Posture can control the rhythm. If you walk faster, the burden on the body will be extremely terrifying. However, Jiang Yue's body is now full of violent medicinal power and urgently needs to be transformed and absorbed.

Whoosh whoosh—

Jiang Yue walked faster and faster, his flesh and blood reached their limits again and again. His muscles were broken and then reassembled under the influence of the medicine, constructing stronger and higher quality flesh and blood.

Refining meat to 30%!

Refining the meat to 40%!

After a full hour, the violent medicinal power was completely consumed by Jiang Yue, and he also successfully refined his flesh to 40%!
"call--"

Jiang Yue dispersed the Tiger Walking Post and exhaled a breath of white air like a dragon. The red color on his body gradually faded away and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Just a piece of young leaf allowed him to reach 40% of his body refinement!

You know, after spending six years, he had only achieved 20% of the flesh refining. This precious medicine was equivalent to six years of hard practice on his part!

Not only that, picking the precious herbs also comes with six years of time, which is like buy one get one free. How can Jiang Yue not be happy?

"Hahaha, Xiaotian, you are really amazing. Now you can smell the scent of precious medicine from forty or fifty miles away. What do you want to eat? I'll make you something delicious today."

"Wang-"

Xiaotian barked, indicating that he wanted to eat deer entrails.

"Haha, I'll go and beat you in a minute!"

Jiang Yue laughed loudly, walked out of the Stinky Vine Cave, took out the three-stone bow and tested his strength.

As Jiang Yue expected, the three-stone bow was like a toy in Jiang Yue's hands.

"I have improved it by another 20%. Now I should be able to use a four-stone bow."

Jiang Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

The speed at which I earn money to buy a bow cannot keep up with the speed at which my strength increases. Perhaps this is a kind of happy trouble!
