The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 154 The Power of the Mysterious Beast
Bai Yun approached quickly, and with a flick of the white spear in his hand, he knocked over the two first-level perfect black rock steel pigs.

A second-stage early stage Black Rock Steel Pig bared its fangs, and its pitch-black demonic energy condensed into a blade as it charged forward.

But behind her, a two-meter-long white tiger with a long beard suddenly rose up, exuding a cold aura and overturned the Black Rock Steel Pig with one hand.

The Black Rock Steel Pigs were stopped by her and instantly ran around in panic.

Zheng Yan and Wang Xiaohu, two swordsmen, attacked from both sides.

The newly condensed true beast spirit blood wolf behind Zheng Yan took shape instantly, and with the collision, it knocked the Black Rock Steel Pig to the ground.

As Wang Xiaohu swung his sword, his aura sank, and the figure of a mountain spirit suddenly appeared behind him. Its body was like a mountain, about two meters tall, with a broad body and a round waist, and its arms were like door panels.

He blocked the way one by one, and with a shake of his body, he directly blocked the second-level Black Rock Steel Pig.

Fu Xuejing held a black steel eight-sided hammer in his hand, and with the true meaning of armored bull charging like a heavy hammer, he rushed into the battlefield from the rear and disrupted the black rock steel pig group.

Lin Junhao swept the cold iron spear across, and the true meaning of the beast spirit emerged. The true meaning of the former first-level Swift Wind Tiger, now with a new skill, transformed into a winged tiger beast, with wings like knives, and the wind like blades, it has reached the second-level quality.

He immediately trapped a Black Rock Steel Pig and continuously attacked its weaknesses, trying to capture it alive first.

Several people worked together, although their coordination was not perfect, but with the cooperation of each other, they were still able to circle the entire group of Black Rock Steel Pigs and completely surround them.

The three purple leopard beasts immediately realized that their prey had been taken advantage of first, and with murderous intent revealed, they exposed their bodies, with purple flowing bodies, and looked extremely cold.

They ran straight towards Bai Yun and the others, roaring threateningly.

However, Su Yan blocked their way and stood in front of them.

"Roar"

The three purple leopard beasts moved and turned into streams of light, attacking from both sides. The purple claws cut through the grass and trees, like blades.

"So decisive."

Su Yan's eyes were calm, his true energy was circulating throughout his body, and blue-gold scale patterns appeared. Then, a black snake pattern seemed to move around his body, and a faint black energy flowed. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a celestial python Dharma body.

sonorous
It was clearly hitting him, but with a wave of his arm, he blocked the attack of the purple leopard beast.

The attack transformed from the demon essence shattered in mid-air, like pieces of purple glass.

The powerful aura captivated three cunning and ferocious purple leopard beasts.

They began to roam around, trying to attack Su Yan's weak points.

However, Su Yan had made some progress in his skills and was about to give it a try. How could he allow them to delay him?

"Try my methods."

The true energy around his body was like starlight, and a breath of energy suddenly rose.

The three purple leopard beasts immediately sensed the threat and attacked Su Yan at the same time.

The powerful demonic energy gathered and transformed into a beast head, biting towards his body.

Su Yan's figure stood tall and motionless. As his true energy gathered, the true meaning of a giant centipede with a black shell and star-shaped robin suddenly condensed.

The body was about ten feet long, with a sturdy build and ferocious horns. With just a light move, he completely protected Su Yan.

Three purple leopard beasts attacked, but were crushed by the true meaning of the Star Moon Centipede, and their attacks were crushed in an instant.

When the purple leopard beast wanted to disperse, the Star-Moon Centipede beast spirit lowered its head and spit out starlight gathered from its true essence from its mouth, instantly knocking one of them away.

The purple leopard beast crashed heavily into the giant tree, making a dull sound. Its purple hide was covered with scratches, and it was obvious that it had suffered serious injuries.

If Su Yan had not held back, he would have had a hard time saving his life.

The remaining two were frightened and immediately distanced themselves, but they were unable to escape.

The Star-Moon Centipede crawled, suddenly raised its head and knocked over the Purple Leopard Beast on the far left, pressing its body on it, and the starlight like mist intertwined to control it.

The purple leopard beast on the right came to rescue, but was hit by a tail swing and flew out, rolling several times.

It wanted to attack again, but was bitten by the Star-Moon Centipede, dragged in front of it, and suppressed with the same powerful true energy.

Before Su Yan could take action himself, the Star-Moon Centipede alone had already suppressed three purple leopard beasts.

He strode forward, took out a rope from the ring, and tied up the three purple leopard beasts.

The purple leopard beast was ferocious and difficult to tame. It wanted to struggle, but it was hit by several punches as big as sandbags and dared not resist at all.

Lin Junhao and others were shocked when they saw Su Yan's battle situation, and then they showed a bitter smile on their faces.

He is so capable of handling real wild beasts with such ease, which is truly amazing.

He was startled and thought to himself, "Even if I'm not as good as him, how could I be worse than the Black Rock Steel Pig?"

Several people had the same idea. After fighting for twenty or thirty rounds, the true beast spirits cooperated with each other and finally completely defeated this group of black rock steel pigs.

"Three third-level Black Rock Steel Pigs, four first-level Perfect Pigs, and seven or eight first-level Pigs. If I exchange them for the sect, I can get a lot of contribution points."

Wang Xiaohu looked happy, and so was Fu Xuejing.

Contribution points are more valuable than Yuanshi. Many resources are specially provided by the sect and cannot be purchased with Yuanshi.

"Brother Su is still the best."

Zheng Yan looked at Su Yan enviously. Three purple leopard beasts with obviously stronger auras had been dragged over by him and tied up like dumplings.

Su Yan smiled slightly and simply asked, "Does anyone want to subdue the Purple Light Leopard Beast?"

"What I condensed is the true meaning of the blood wolf. If I want to comprehend it with a contracted beast, I need a wolf-shaped wild beast to be more compatible."

The contracted beast is for martial arts, and a compatible contracted beast will be more helpful for these disciples who have just become disciples and transformed their skills to comprehend the true meaning.

The reasons why Wang Xiaohu and Li Bowen refused were similar to Zheng Yan's.

One of them is a mountain spirit beast master who is thick and defensive, and the other is an armored bull, which is similar.

Although in battle, defense combined with cooperation with agile wild beasts like the Purple Light Leopard Beast is a good choice.

But these are reinforcements that will only be considered for the second or even third wild beast, and the first contracted beast still needs to be compatible.

"Lao Lin, what about you?"

Su Yan only asked Lin Junhao. He was quite interested, but thought for a long time: "My Beast Taming Mark is still a little lacking. I only have eight of them, so I don't have much confidence."

Su Yan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "In that case, let's go back first, complete the task, and rest for a night."

After a quick cleanup, everyone had hunted some living creatures, but only Su Yan had a beast bag, and there was no way to fit all the wild beasts in it.

A first-level beast bag can hold three wild beasts. The purple leopard beast is not particularly large, but it can all be put in.

But the Black Rock Steel Pigs had no choice. They couldn't expose the existence of the insect world.

So Wang Xiaohu and Fu Xuejing became coolies, condensing their beast spirits and dragging the Black Rock Steel Pig with their huge bodies.

Zheng Yan and Lin Junhao helped and carried some of the things, and then they rushed to the temporary camp of the Beast King Sect.

On the way back, it was Su Yan's turn to show off his mountain-climbing skills.

Although I didn't look for it specifically, I still found two second-grade low-quality spiritual medicines and several first-grade spiritual medicines.

During the land reclamation, countless precious plants and spiritual medicines were left behind. No wonder so many people are flocking to them.

Su Yan and his companions returned to the camp. The camp was built with huge trees as walls. The menial disciples had already built hundreds of houses, each divided into different areas, and housed about a few hundred people.

A few people found the residence of the Zongwu Pavilion and unloaded the Black Rock Steel Pig and the Purple Light Leopard Beast into the hall, taking up quite a lot of space.

"Wow, six second-level wild beasts!"

The steward in charge was a middle-aged man, also a member of the sect, but he had shed his disciple status and become the steward. He walked forward, grabbed the purple leopard beast's head with his big hand, and pried its teeth open, looking it over.

"I got hurt a little, but I took them down in one blow. Awesome, awesome."

He looked up at the few people, but for a moment he couldn't tell who had done it or how they had done it.

He simply said, "Are you six new disciples?"

"Yes"

Lin Junhao stepped forward to answer, and Manager Xing nodded: "You've accepted the task, right? Do you want to exchange it for the task, or directly for contribution points?"

When everyone arrived, they had already discussed how to exchange them. They said, "All the second-level wild beasts will be counted as quests, and the remaining Black Rock Steel Pigs will be exchanged for contribution points."

"Okay, let's do the math."

Several errand disciples stepped forward and collected the wild beasts one by one with their beast bags. After some calculation, they got a total of 7,800 contribution points.

Six thousand contribution points came from the mission, and the remaining one thousand eight hundred contribution points were obtained by killing two second-level wild beasts. The materials were not handed in, so it was counted as a mission and 300 points were earned.

One thousand five hundred was exchanged for several first-level perfect black rock steel pigs.

A whole litter, and they were caught alive, that's how much we got.

I have to say, these contribution points are really precious.

Everyone left the hall of the Zongwu Pavilion, found the assigned rooms, and gathered together.

The income from the mission is calculated per person: Su Yan gets 2,000, Bai Yun gets 2,000, and Lin Junhao gets 2,000.

The remaining exchange proceeds are also with Su Yan.

Lin Junhao said, "Brother Su fought one against three and captured three Purple Light Leopard Beasts. We took advantage of this. These two thousand points, along with the other eighteen hundred points, are all counted as Brother Su's."

“More”

Su Yan raised his eyes slightly. There was an extra second-level purple leopard beast, but even if it was converted into contribution points, it might not be as much as 1,800.

"One thousand three hundred points, and the remaining four thousand five hundred points, you can divide it among yourselves."

Lin Junhao and the others were slightly stunned and nodded: "Thank you, Brother Su."

After the few people divided the profits, each of the five people received 900 contribution points. Then, the corpses of the second-level wild beasts obtained from hunting were divided among Zheng Yan, a butcher who came from a temple butcher shop, and each of them took a part.

The people at the second level refused to divide the elixirs in Su Yan's hand, and each took some of the first level ones.

The first cooperation went smoothly. After dividing the profits, they all took a walk around the sect's treasury.

Fortunately, Su Yan arrived at the Alchemy Pavilion and exchanged 800 contribution points for two bottles of second-grade medium-quality Blood Beast Pills to cultivate his contracted beast.

He also bought a few pieces of second-level ore to feed the gold-eating monster insects as food, spending 500 contribution points.

"Spend money like water. The cost of the technique is just a prelude. The resources for cultivation are the main part."

Don’t be fooled by the high price of the skills, which can cost thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, but that’s just a token of appreciation. The real threshold is qualification.

There are certain limits on what inner disciples can exchange and what outer disciples can exchange.

Some skills require the approval of a top-level figure, and one must have made great contributions. This is the real threshold.

After buying a technique, you need resources to practice it. The more unique the technique is, the more bizarre and more resources you may need, which means you will spend a lot of money.

The sect is not afraid that you will not spend contribution points, but is afraid that the disciples cannot earn contribution points and cannot spend so many contribution points.

When everyone met again, from Lin Junhao to Wang Xiaohu, everyone had a beast storage bag around their waist, and those who had not bought a storage ring now had one.

Su Yan raised his eyebrows slightly: "All spent?"

Wang Xiaohu pursed his lips and complained, "There are only 50 points left. I heard that food and lodging in the camp also require three contribution points a day, or they can be exchanged for first-grade low-grade Yuanshi."

A first-level beast bag, even a standard first-level low-grade one, costs 300 contribution points, and that’s the price for a new disciple.

There are more storage rings, more than four hundred, but less than ten cubic meters.

Just these two things drained them.

"Okay, just make more money. We still have three more mission titles."

Su Yan smiled and comforted them, and everyone found a place to stay and had a good rest.

But the next day, Lin Junhao came to find Su Yan first.

He got straight to the point: "Brother Su, you should go solo."

Su Yan:?
Su Yan's eyes moved slightly, he looked at Lin Junhao, and suddenly smiled.

"Can the five of you handle this?"

"All five of us are true, and with our cooperation, even a Ruyi Realm warrior can't take us down, so safety is naturally no problem. If you follow us, it will be safer, but it will be a burden to you, and it will be difficult to share the spoils."

Speaking of the latter part, Lin Junhao laughed, half jokingly.

He underestimated Su Yan's strength at the beginning, thinking that he had broken through the true meaning. Even if there was a gap between them, it would not be too big, and if they formed a team, they would have more help.

But he didn't expect Su Yan to be so powerful, and instead he became a burden to the other party.

It’s actually a good thing that we can talk it out in time now.

This was not only his opinion, but also the opinion of Fu Xuejing and others.

Su Yan had not yet completed the task on the first day, so it was reasonable for them to help each other.

But in the future, they will not be able to keep up with Su Yan's efficiency, and the harmony in resource allocation will gradually be damaged.

It would be better to stop now and not drag down Su Yan or anyone else.

"Take good care of my senior sister for me. I'll come back and find a chance to refine a batch of pills for you. I won't charge you any labor fees."

Lin Junhao smiled and said, "Okay."

When Lin Junhao walked out of Su Yan's room, Wang Xiaohu and others were already waiting there.

He took a long breath and said, "Let's go. Don't fall too far behind Su Yan. That would be too embarrassing."

Su Yan packed up his things and followed a few people to Huangmeng Mountain.

Lin Junhao's words were exactly what he wanted.

"I originally wanted to help Senior Sister find a tiger beast, and then go deeper. But it's good that Lao Lin has opened up. Today I just want to go deep into Huangmeng Mountain and clear the origins of the six-winged blood centipede..."

"Boom!"

A bell rang throughout the camp, and everyone immediately looked up at a group of white-armored disciples crossing the street.

The leading disciple announced loudly, "All disciples, listen up! There are three traitorous brothers, Li Yunxiang, Li Yunluo, and Li Yuntao. They attacked their fellow disciples to steal their treasure, but were discovered and fled into Huangmeng Mountain. Whoever captures their heads will receive three thousand contribution points."

The voice was cold and contained a hint of anger. In the blink of an eye, the papers, controlled by Zhen Yuan, scattered like snowflakes and flew into the hands of the disciples along the way.

There are portraits of three brothers on it. They look kind and feminine. Then look at the strength and notes below.

"Three True Meaning Realm Heart Monkey Stage Great Accomplishment Warriors stole a third-order Elemental Jade Marrow, killed two of their fellow disciples, and there are still others who have not yet been verified."

Su Yan looked quite strange. On the side, his senior brother who had betrayed Yue Feng rubbed his iron fist and sneered, "You killed people to steal treasures but not those from other sects, and you attacked your own people. Then don't blame those white dogs for issuing the law enforcement order. It's just a good opportunity for me to make some extra money."

He strode towards Huangmeng Mountain, but Su Yan laughed: "So it really is law enforcement, quite interesting."
