The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 32 Great improvement in strength
Although Fire Ganoderma is not a precious plant that can be used for direct warming and nourishing, it has fire poison and is more powerful than Yin Chi Root.

However, this thing can be used to refine a lot of pills, and the price at Baicaotang is very high.

A flower this big must be worth at least 10 to 20 taels of silver.

However, Su Yan did not intend to hand this thing over in exchange for silver, but wanted to use it as food for the two insect servants.

Especially the Yinshui Centipede. With constant driving and feeding with poison, the Yinshui Centipede's growth rate has already reached 127/200. As long as it makes a little more effort, it may be able to break through before him.

Su Yan carefully picked the fire meat ganoderma and felt a burning sensation in his hand, like boiling water at 70 or 80 degrees.

If he hadn't been so skilled in skin refining, he probably wouldn't have been able to pick it off with his bare hands.

He put the things into the insect world and cleaned them up, then he took the two insect messengers down the mountain.

He came and went quietly, and no one knew he had ever left Yunqian Village.

On the second day, Su Yan made breakfast with the remaining five pounds of Qingbei Rock Beef and ate it all.

Then, I used Chifusan again.

Only then did he absorb the two insect essences into his body and stand up to practice the Golden Ape Stance.

Originally, the medicinal effects of yesterday's Red Skin Powder and Blue Back Rock Beef had not yet been fully released, and now he added fuel to the fire, and the whole thing became scorching hot.

The skin membrane seemed to be burning, the whole body was red, and the blue veins were bulging.

The insect essence absorbed was just like warm spring water, blending into the surging qi and blood.

The medicinal power spread throughout his body in an instant. Su Yan stood still with concentration, integrating his mind and body. He endured the severe pain and guided the surging blood and energy to continuously temper his skin membrane.

Such a stop would take one or two hours.

When he was exhausted and took a short rest, he practiced the eight forms of Monkey Fist one by one.

When he moves, his body is like a clever ape, and when he punches, it is like a ferocious ape.

His moves changed and operated smoothly, and he also integrated his Golden Ape Posture into the subtle details of his steps and movements.

Since you are going to practice, you have to make a name for yourself.

Not only does he want to master the standing meditation, he also wants to master the monkey boxing to lay a solid foundation for martial arts.

Su Yan also released the Yinshui centipede and the Velvet Fire Scorpion, and gave the Fire Meat Ganoderma to the two of them to share.

At the same time, the poisonous mushrooms and poisonous grasses collected in the past, as well as the gray rabbits and poisonous snakes hunted, were given to them to devour.

In a blink of an eye, a few days passed, and during that time I went to the Golden Ape Martial Arts School again.

Perhaps because the martial arts school examination is getting closer, more and more apprentices are coming to the martial arts school.

Not to mention whether there is a chance to enter the inner gate, if Master Bai sees me and gives me some pointers, perhaps the progress I will make will be equivalent to a month's practice.

As a result, there are many new faces.

However, there was still one person. It seemed that Li Shun had fallen out with Su Yan and had become cold towards him. Even Zhou Yong, Hu Qing and other outer disciples from Hubei did not dare to have too much contact with Su Yan.

Su Yan just thought that the behavior was childish. If the person had enough strength, what would be the point of using such tricks?
In Yunqian Village, Su Yan, holding a hardwood bow, rushed towards the old tree.

In just three or two steps, he moved his body, drew his bow and shot three arrows in succession.

The three arrows were clearly shot out in a certain order, but somehow, like three stars converging, they simultaneously passed through the fallen leaves and were nailed to the same branch.

The branch was as big as a forearm. After being hit by three arrows, it broke with a slight cracking sound.

Su Yan paused for a moment, his breath gradually calmed down, becoming deep and steady, vaguely revealing some of the stance training postures, having already mastered most of it.

"By using the power of the standing meditation and the support of Qi and blood, my archery skills have actually become slightly stronger. But unfortunately, Qi and blood cannot leave the body, so the power of this hardwood bow is also limited."

[First-level Insect Master: 20/100]

[Insect World: 1 cubic meters]

[Body Refining Stage: Skin Refining 149/200 (Minor Success)]

[Golden Ape Posture: 171/200 (Minor Success)]

[Monkey Fist: Minor Success (167/200)]

【Mountain Driving: 94/200 (Small Success)】

【Basic Archery 5/400 (Great Mastery)】

【Medicine Identification 57/200 (Minor Success)】

[Yinshui Centipede 189/200 (Growth Stage)] [Velvet Fire Scorpion 53/200 (Growth Stage)]

In just a few days, Su Yan made great progress.

The Yinshui Centipede is only one step away from maturity, and the Monkey Fist and Golden Ape Posture have also taken a step forward and are on the verge of great success.

The membrane is as tight as iron, the body is as straight as a pine tree, and the strength of one or two thousand pounds has been tempered into a huge force. It is only one step away from the perfection of skin refining.

However, what Su Yan had never expected was that he would master the basic archery skills first.

"While mastering martial arts relies on comprehension and compatibility, it also depends on one's own complexity."

"Basic archery is just a general martial art, involving steps, body shape, bow style, and eyesight. Compared to standing meditation, it is not complicated, and mastering it is naturally easier. However..."

Su Yan's eyes flickered as he recalled his archery skills: "One method can lead to all methods. Although it is just a little inspiration, it is a little helpful for breaking through the plateau of Golden Ape Posture and Monkey Fist. It requires actual combat and fighting."

With the nourishment of a large amount of tonics and insect essence, his hard work progressed very quickly, but after reaching a proficiency of 170 or 180, the speed slowed down.

Although he can still push forward to great success through continuous practice and subtle adjustments, this is an advantage that ordinary people do not have.

But Su Yan still felt that it was not enough. After all, if he continued to delay like this, it would be a slow process and it would probably take a month or two to figure it out.

"That's fine. I'm going into the mountains for a few days now, and I'm running out of resources. I need to get some more silver to exchange for Red Skin Powder."

Su Yan had just made up his mind when suddenly there was a noise outside the door.

"Is Su Yan at home?"

Su Yan's expression changed slightly. This voice seemed to be Dian Jing?
He strode to the door and opened it, and saw a big man like an iron tower standing outside the yard. Wasn't it Dian Jing?

Dian Jing carried a large bow on his back, a broadsword on his waist, and a leather bag made of animal skins, dressed as if he was going into the mountains.

"What did Dian Jing come to see me for?"

Su Yan was confused, but he still went up to him and said hello.

"Brother Dian Jing, why did you have time to come and see me?"

"Li Shun caught a ten-jin rhinoceros-horn catfish at Bailu Lake. It's a top-quality fish that's been refined for its skin and bones. After eating it, his skin and membranes improved even more. I'm afraid he'll want to save face with you during the exam."

Dian Jing was straightforward and went straight to the point when he told Su Yan about Li Shun.

Su Yan couldn't help but look surprised and interrupted Dian Jing.

“Brother Dian, I remember that last time I refuted more than just Li Shun’s face.”

He stared into Dian Jing's eyes, but Dian Jing just laughed at himself: "Well refuted, whether they are warriors or hunters, they all earn their livings by their own efforts. I was blinded by the raccoon's urine, so I was dragged away by Li Shun."

That day, Dian Jing was frightened by Li Shun's statement that the people in the city were one faction, and the mountain households and the lake people should also become one faction. If they did not unite, they would be targeted.

This is how the connection was established and someone was found to help with the exam.

But being mocked by Su Yan like that, not only did he feel embarrassed, he also reacted suddenly.

Even if the fox relies on the tiger's power and the dog relies on the power of the master, the fox and the dog are still foxes and dogs after all. In Master Bai's eyes, there is no difference between them. How can there be a superior and inferior one?
If he is already extremely powerful, who can suppress him?
Thinking of this, he parted ways with Li Shun within two days.

Of course, he would not tell Su Yan about this matter, but he felt a little guilty, so he came over to remind him.

Su Yan seemed to understand a little better and nodded, saying, "Thank you, Senior Brother Dian, for reminding me, but he won't be able to accomplish anything."

Su Yan spoke calmly. Not to mention one rhinoceros catfish, even if it was two or three, it would be difficult for Li Shun to accomplish anything with his arrogance and calculation.

Dian Jing looked at Su Yan strangely, wondering what this junior brother relied on.

Although he was puzzled, he did not delve into it. He just said, "That's good. I'll tell you another story as compensation for the last incident."

Su Yan raised his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Maybe some powerful wild beast appeared in the Great Wilderness Mountains, scaring off a number of entry-level and early-first-level wild beasts into the inner mountains. The number is not too small, not too small. The government sent word to all the hunters in our village, urging them to go into the mountains and hunt. I know you're a good archer. If you're interested, perhaps you can find one or two in the inner mountains. They're no worse than Baozhi."

Unless an ordinary hunter is at the Leather Refining Stage, he naturally cannot defeat even a wild beast at the early stage of the first stage.

But if it’s a team of hunters, combined with traps, that’s a different story.

After all, not every wild beast is the black-clawed tiger in the Blood Moving Realm, which has the cultivation level of the late first stage.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Dian."

Su Yan was slightly stunned, then clasped his fists and thanked him with a much more serious attitude.

Dian Jing didn't need to tell himself this news, he should just treat it as his own opportunity.
