Tomb raiding: The awesome life that started from Ganggangyingzi

"Hiss..."

"puff"

"Ah... Ahh!"

The mandrill's massive body crashed to the ground like a collapsing mountain, screaming and struggling incessantly, but it was unable to stand up at all.

Because of its thick, single leg, although it wasn't completely severed, not a single tendon inside was intact.

The piercing, painful scream startled and enraged the other mandrill that had just stood up, causing it to hesitate and hesitate to advance.

"Hey! Damn it, you're scared now? Weren't you just giving me a barrage of attacks?"

Luckily, I have this spiked club, otherwise I'd have at least ten or eight broken bones, and I probably wouldn't be able to deal with you two beasts.

Ji Haobo spat out a mouthful of blood, wiped his mouth and sneered. The fierce fight just now left him with a tightness in his chest and a dull pain in his broken bones.

Thinking that his old injury had not yet healed, and now that he had to postpone his appointment for another two days because of these two slaps, a surge of anger welled up in his heart.

"This is so noisy, just shut up forever!"

Turning his head to look at the mandrill howling on the ground, he flashed forward, slashed down with his long sword, and took its watermelon.

Strangely, the mandrill's corpse quickly turned to ashes on its own, and when the night wind blew, there was no trace of it left.

The remaining mandrill, seeing its companion (let's call it a companion for now!) killed, seemed to suppress its fear and charged madly toward Jiboda.

But soon a spotlight shone on its head. This was not a moment of honor to go on stage to receive an award, but rather a call for its curtain call and departure.

Taking advantage of its blindness, Ji Haobo swung his long sword and pierced its body with a whooshing sound, then took out his Flying Dragon Claw and snatched the watermelon.

Upon seeing that the mandrills were all dead, Lao Hu and the others rushed over and helped Ji Haobo up.

Fatty Wang's cheeks were red and swollen. He looked around and cursed angrily.

"Damn it, what kind of lousy mountain demon was that? Not only was it a penniless wretch, it didn't even leave a trace after it died."

How could he not be angry? He got nothing, except for the slaps Yingzi gave them to wake up.

Looking at his pig-headed appearance, Ji Haobo chuckled and teased him:

"What, you want to eat its flesh? Aren't you afraid it'll grow three legs?"

"puff"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

Yingzi didn't understand, but Lao Hu understood the meaning and couldn't help but burst into laughter, but the pain on his face made his mouth twitch.

Fatty Wang awkwardly wanted to say something, but Yingzi was beside him, so he opened his mouth and then swallowed it back.

Then Lao Hu suggested that he and Fatty Wang would keep watch tonight, and Ji Haobo thought about it and nodded.

Now that the two mandrills have been killed, and this is their territory again, there shouldn't be any danger.

As for whether there are other mandrills, it's highly unlikely. If there were so many of these creatures, they wouldn't be so mysterious.

Lying in the tent, Ji Haobo checked the panel and saw that he had 1650 card draw points remaining.

Of these, 650 is what's left over from before, so each of the two mandrills has 500.

This amount is only enough for one bronze-level draw, so I might as well just use it. Otherwise, he won't be able to sleep if he doesn't spend his money.

The light from the card draw flashed a few times, and an item card appeared. Ji Haobo was overjoyed.

Yi Jin Xi Sui Dan (Bronze Card)

【Meridian Cleansing and Bone Cleansing】

With a thought, a small porcelain bottle appeared in his hand, from which he poured out a black pill the size of a finger, emitting a strange fragrance.

Ji Haobo felt his blood surge just smelling it. With this Yi Jin Xi Sui Dan (Muscle/Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing Pill), he could begin the process of forming his core.

To prevent the medicine from fading, he swallowed it immediately. In just a few breaths, Ji Haobo felt a warm current flowing from his abdomen and spreading throughout his body.

Most of it continuously flushes the meridians and bone marrow, while the body's Qi and blood are rapidly enhanced.

Under his mental control, it continuously gathered in his dantian, forming a round lump.

As time goes by, the meridians become more and more open and resilient;

Meanwhile, the structure of the bones throughout the body becomes increasingly dense and hard, and the hematopoietic function of the bone marrow naturally increases dramatically.

As old blood is constantly metabolized, new blood becomes thicker and purer.

My body has also undergone subtle adjustments. Compared to my initial robust and muscular physique, I am now slightly leaner, but my figure is more perfect.

After an unknown amount of time, a continuous stream of qi and blood began to be generated and flowed into the dantian.

It starts as a round lump, gets compressed, becomes rounder and rounder, and finally forms a bead that spins around.

Although it is called a bead, this is just a description. Apart from being able to sense and understand, it is not a physical object that can be seen with the naked eye.

As the last warm current in his abdomen disappeared, the changes in Ji Haobo's body gradually subsided, and a strong feeling of hunger arose.

This is because the body has just undergone tendon and marrow cleansing and the great increase in qi and blood followed by the formation of the elixir, resulting in excessive consumption of energy.

After all, energy is conserved, and with so many changes, it's impossible for something to come out of nothing.

"Click...click..."

As Ji Haobo opened his eyes, got up, and left the tent, his bones creaked all over.

To his delight, the broken bone in his chest had completely healed, and he was filled with boundless energy, his mental state was better than ever before.

"Brother Bo, didn't you go inside to sleep? Why did you come out?"

Old Hu was handing over his shift to Fatty Wang when they heard a rapid, beating sound, which startled them both.

"I just broke through in my boxing technique and I'm too excited to sleep. You two go and rest! I'll keep watch for the rest of the time."

Ji Haobo smiled and casually explained to the two of them before walking to the side and slowly practicing his fist techniques, sensing the changes in his body and experiencing the use of qi and blood after embracing the elixir.

About an incense stick later, he roughly understood what was called Dan Jin. It was neither like the internal energy in martial arts novels that could be projected outwards, nor was it slightly different from the legendary Chinese martial arts.

Although qi and blood cannot be released outwards, they can be attached to something, such as bursting forth with punches, kicks, or any part of the body.

In addition, it can also be attached to weapons, but ordinary weapons are not very effective;

The long sword in his hand is only about 30% as effective as his fists and feet; most of it is wasted.

Furthermore, the Qi and blood are also invisible and colorless, which Ji Haobo believes can be understood as Yang Qi.

From now on, when he encounters those ghostly spirits, he will no longer need to bleed them, and naturally, he will no longer worry about tetanus.

After figuring out the situation after the breakthrough, I couldn't wait to start eating; if I didn't eat something soon, my stomach would rebel.

They ate bowl after bowl of meat, chewing slowly and carefully until dawn, and even cleared out some fertilizer along the way.

When Lao Hu and the others woke up, they saw Bo Ye eating, so they quickly tidied up and sat down next to him to start eating as well.

Fatty Wang glanced at Tiger and the others gnawing on bones and immediately exclaimed in surprise.

"Bo-ye, you haven't been eating since last night, have you? Tiger and the others are gnawing on bones, their bellies are all bulging, how much have they eaten?"

When Lao Hu and Yingzi heard his words, they noticed Hu Zi and the others' bellies and looked at Ji Haobo in disbelief.

"Hehe! I broke through last night, which took a lot of energy, and since I'm currently in a period of increasing strength, I can naturally eat a lot."

Ji Haobo smiled at the group, put down the bowl in his hand. He was indeed accumulating qi and blood to nourish his golden core, compressing it continuously until it would eventually transform into qi.
