The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 53 The dove takes over the magpie's nest
The next day, Su Yan immediately went into Yunling Mountain.

First-grade elixirs are nothing more than medicines for configuration. Although some of them also need to be boiled in a medicine furnace, it is not as big a process as Xu Zhongdao's refining of second-grade elixirs.

Logically speaking, it’s fine to refine it in this house.

It’s just that Su Yan was cautious and didn’t want to be disturbed, nor did he want others to notice that something was wrong for the time being.

Whether it was the medicinal fragrance or the Yinshui centipede guard, he didn't want to reveal them all at this moment.

He has a talent for martial arts. He is a noble boy from a poor family, a martial arts genius who came out of a poor family.

But if he were to add the ability to tame beasts and refine medicine, he would become a monster.

You never know if someone will mistakenly think you've obtained some kind of inheritance opportunity and come looking for you.

So Su Yan had to go to the woods to prepare the medicine, find a deserted place, prepare everything, and use it as his second small base.

Su Yan had already had an idea of where to refine the elixir in the forest. The cave where he had fought and killed the wolves before was covered by vines and was located in the mountain stream, so it was really hidden and just right for him to use.

So he entered the woods and hurried on, with the trees and weeds passing quickly behind him.

Soon, he had climbed over several hills and arrived at the inner mountains.

According to his memory, Su Yan found the mountain road he had taken that day and groped his way forward.

The mountains are covered with lush forests and are located in the inner mountains, so the spiritual energy of the mountains is stronger than that of the outer mountains. However, in just half a month, the mountain has changed drastically.

The mountains are high and the forests are deep, with many bushes and weeds growing everywhere, and vines crisscrossing, covering the road.

After searching for a while, Su Yan finally arrived near the mountain stream.

"This place is really hard to find. If I hadn't heard the sound of the bronze fox monkey that day, I'm afraid I wouldn't have walked here."

The Yinshui Centipede led the way in front, and Su Yan also came to the side of the mountain stream.

"wrong"

However, just as he arrived here, Su Yan's expression suddenly changed slightly.

Someone has been to this place before.

Although vines were growing, they would definitely not completely cover the entrance to the cave. Not only the entrance to the cave, but also some of the surrounding bushes and weeds were covered from behind, which was completely different from his previous arrangement.

"sizzle"

The Yinshui Centipede also immediately made a slight sound, as it also sensed a different smell.

Su Yan stopped, concealed his body slightly, and hid behind a tree trunk.

"This is already in the Sayama area. Even if ordinary mountain people come here, they won't come here. And there's nothing here, so how can they hide their bodies like this, unless..."

Su Yan immediately became serious. This wolf den was an excellent hiding place. No one would do such a thing unless they wanted to hide or hide something.

"Pang Tianfeng?!"

His eyes were filled with surprise and doubt. Wasn't Pang Tianfeng driven to the Xiaoshanhui medicinal field?
One is in the east and the other is in the west, separated by more than a dozen hills and almost dozens of miles of mountain roads. How can we get here?

"Let's explore first."

His eyes flickered. The people who could have such a possibility at the moment were either Pang Tianfeng or those wanderers who had entered the mountains to search.

But whoever it is, he must be hiding something.

Su Yan believed that he was not a timid person, and now that he had encountered it, he had to find out the truth.

He hid his body even deeper, with the weeds covering him directly, making it almost impossible to see that there was a person lying there.

Then the Yinshui centipede drilled into the vines and quietly crawled towards the cave entrance.

There are many insects and beasts in the mountains. Although this Yinshui centipede is larger in size, it is just an alien insect.

If we approached so quietly, even if there was someone inside, they might not find it strange.

Su Yan held his breath and stared, his eyes fixed on the cave entrance.

The cave entrance was not very deep, so there was no way to hide anyone. As long as we went in and explored, we could find out what was going on inside. When the Yinshui centipede entered the cave, it suddenly heard a hissing sound.

A pair of cold eyes lit up in the darkness, and a black shadow rushed towards the Yinshui Centipede.

The Yinshui Centipede dodged immediately, but was still knocked out.

Su Yan's face changed slightly, but he saw the vines at the cave entrance shaking, and a big snake with green stripes and red eyes rushed out of the cave, spitting out scarlet snake tongue, staring at the Yinshui centipede.

He immediately showed a look of astonishment. It was not a human but a wild beast?

"No, it's a wild beast left here by someone."

Wild beasts would not cover their tracks like this, especially a wild beast like a snake. How could it remove vines and bushes to cover itself?
He immediately showed a hint of intention. There was no movement in the cave, only wild beasts were there. This must be an opportunity.

The green viper came out of the cave and immediately started fighting with the Yinshui centipede, opening its mouth wide and pouncing forward.

Its body is three or four meters long, as thick as an arm, and its snake skin is like iron. It has almost the strength of the middle stage of the first level, which is no worse than the muscle and bone realm.

The pounce was extremely fast, biting the Yinshui centipede's head.

The Yinshui centipede is also a mature one, quite powerful, and it dodged by turning its head.

Then, taking advantage of his body shape, he quickly approached and bit the green viper with his mouthparts as sharp as a knife.

A crack suddenly appeared, and even this hard snake skin could not completely defend against the attack of the Yinshui centipede.

The green viper suddenly jumped up and swept it away. The venomous fangs in its mouth were like hooks and bit it, penetrating the hard shell of the Yinshui centipede.

The Yinshui centipede felt pain and the green viper became fierce. The two of them entangled themselves in a ball, struggling so hard that their scales scattered and their limbs broke.

Su Yan's heart tightened. Although the Yinshui Centipede was in its mature stage, its body shape and strength were a little lacking, and it was suppressed by the Green Viper.

If we wait until the poison takes effect, I'm afraid the Yinshui Centipede will have been seriously injured.

He immediately ordered the velvet fire scorpion to rush out of the bushes and pounce directly on the green viper.

The sharp barb pierced the head of the green viper, almost piercing its skull.

A large amount of boiling venom was injected into it, and the body of the green viper immediately twisted and rolled over.

If there is only one kind of toxin, it can still withstand a few as a poison, but when the toxins of the Yin water centipede and the velvet fire scorpion invade the body at the same time.

It immediately had a serious reaction, and the strength of its bite on the Yinshui centipede was suddenly reduced a lot.

The Yinshui centipede broke free and, regardless of its injuries, bit the Green Viper's vital point.

The velvet fire scorpion also launched further attacks, continuously biting the green viper's head.

Under such a double attack, they finally killed it.

At this time, the Yinshui centipede and the Velvet Fire Scorpion were injured, their shells were cracked, and many of their arthropods were broken.

Even if one can enter the insect world to recuperate, it will take several days to recover.

Although Su Yan felt distressed, he was not in a hurry to leave.

The two messenger insects entered the cave again. There was no other movement in the cave at this time, and no one was hiding inside.

Su Yan then hurried down and first came to the side of the green viper. The huge snake was lying flat on the ground, with dirty blood flowing out, and there was not a single piece of good meat on its body.

"If the Bronze Fox Ape were to face a mid-stage first-order wild beast, it would probably be poisoned to death."

Su Yan was shocked and suspicious. It was too unlikely that such a wild beast would hide in this cave. Only a few days had passed.
First came the gray wolves, then the bronze fox monkeys, and finally the green viper.

There is no treasure in the cave, how could it have come to this?
He collected the body of the green viper and strode into the cave. He lit the torch and the flames illuminated the entire cave.

"Are these the stolen medicinal herbs?"

Su Yan was shocked. In front of him were wooden boxes and packages of various sizes piled up in the cave. In some corners, the appearance of medicinal herbs was revealed.

Seeing this scene, Su Yan's first reaction was to think of the stolen medicinal herbs.
