Chapter 881: Precious Materials to Aid Cultivation
A bright light bloomed in the forest after nightfall. Chen Chuan's figure stood in the dazzling light, and around him was a thick and impenetrable darkness.
There seemed to be countless twisted and invisible things rolling and squeezing inside, and all kinds of strange and weird noises were heard. Even the ground below seemed to come alive, emitting a heavy and suppressed gasp as if it could not bear the burden.
Chen Chuan ignored the movement, but focused all his attention on the posture in front of him and guided his own breathing.
He started practicing in the afternoon and has not stopped until now.
This was his first time standing in the wilderness of the fusion land at night without any shelter, but he did not feel too much discomfort. The fighter's biological field and the Great Bright Light Style he was practicing at the moment could resist these external invasions and the integration from the spiritual world.
It was just because of the influence of another world that his own consumption increased exponentially. Whenever he felt that his energy was consumed too much, he would swallow a large piece of rusty honey and then come back to continue. Anyway, if he didn't eat these things, he couldn't take them away, so he didn't feel sorry for using them at this moment.
The surrounding swarms of rust bees continued to swarm towards him. At night, these insects became even more ferocious, but it was useless. The difference in life levels made the two incomparable. As long as his own biological field could be maintained and his spiritual power was not exhausted, it would be impossible to break through that layer of outer protection.
So he did not try to drive it away deliberately, but instead devoted himself to cultivation.
Around him, the insect corpses gradually piled up on the ground, but soon, under the tide of the spiritual world, they merged into the darkness, transformed into wisps of black smoke, and vaguely condensed into something, but when illuminated by the bright light, they quickly melted and disintegrated like ice and snow meeting the sun.
Chao Ming fell from the sky before nightfall. At this moment, he was holding a piece of honey, curled up under the protection of his biological field, and sleeping there peacefully.
In the darkness and all kinds of intertwined night, he was like a torch that could never be extinguished, and it became brighter and more dazzling.
It seemed like a long time had passed, yet it also seemed like only a moment. The darkness surrounding him suddenly dissipated, and a ray of light from the sky passed through the trees and fell from above his head.
It's dawn.
Chen Chuan paused for a moment, then slowly stopped, and the light flashing on his body gradually faded.
In this night and half a day, he became familiar with most of the Great Bright Light Style. He believed that he would be able to master it in a few days. This was entirely supported by these high-energy honeys.
Theoretically, as long as there is sufficient energy replenishment and the fighter's own body can withstand it, the speed of practice can become extremely fast.
He was able to persevere because his foundation was much deeper than that of other fighters at the same stage. In addition, the effect of the remains of the incense burner made it easier for him to find the right path in his practice.
The remaining rust bees disappeared after dawn, probably having given up. There was not a single bee corpse left on the ground.
At this moment, he glanced at the beehive that was as tall as a giant tree not far away. Even after a night of continuous consumption, only the honey at the bottom had been used. This thing may have the longest shelf life of all high-energy ingredients. It is said that it can be stored for more than a hundred years without losing its nutrients.
But he couldn't bring much back by himself, and there might be better ones later. Moreover, he regarded this place as his hunting ground and had no intention of completely eradicating it. So after thinking about it, he cut off some honey and put it in the gap of the suitcase, intending to take it back and enjoy it slowly, and left the rest alone.
Then he called out to the bird that had climbed up the tree. The bird flapped its wings and flew up into the sky, making a chirping sound.
He picked up the suitcase and Xuejun Knife and continued to move deeper into the area.
Although he had practiced for a whole night, he did not feel tired at all due to the abundant nutrients. Instead, he felt very energetic.
This time he did not have a fixed route, but chose the direction of advance based on the terrain and water sources. After walking for more than three hours, he stepped into a hill. When he arrived here, he felt that the situation here was a little unusual.
The surroundings were a little too quiet, and he soon felt that there was a trace of very violent spiritual power remaining, and it was this spirit that suppressed the surrounding creatures.
A creature with spiritual powers?
Somewhat interesting.
He lowered the brim of his hat and strode towards the source of the spirit. After more than half an hour, he came to a mudflat. In a large open space, he saw a creature with a donkey's body and a sheep's head.
It is large in size, about three or four meters tall when on all fours. Its hard single hoof is pure white. There is a bulge on its forehead, and on both sides of its head are a pair of sharp, slightly curved horns. Under its smooth and shiny dark brown skin are lumps of muscle.
This one happened to be the creature recorded in the atlas, called Zhengyang. It had a very straightforward and violent temper. When encountering an enemy, it would rather die than retreat. It attached great importance to its own territory, and this thing had basically no natural enemies in the first half of the fusion.
The current situation does confirm the records. As he came along, many creatures would flee on their own after sensing his field. Sometimes, in order to find some valuable creatures, he would deliberately restrain his field. However, this creature would not leave even if it clearly sensed his field. Instead, it would slightly separate its legs, lower its head, place its horns in front, and expel an unusually hot breath from its nose, making an offensive posture.
Seeing the creature rushing towards him, he chose to help it. He leaned to the side and lightly punched the side of its neck. A force instantly penetrated into its body. After rushing forward a few steps, the thing staggered a few steps and knelt on the ground. After spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, it fell to the side and was completely dead.
Chen Chuan walked up to Zheng Yang and reached out to touch the bump on its forehead. The most important thing about this creature is this piece of alienated tissue on the top of its head, which is the source of its spiritual concentration.
He clenched his five fingers together and reached out to pull it down, tearing off the thin film covering it, revealing long, fibrous strips of white flesh inside.
He ate all the white meat, and the light in his eyes couldn't stop overflowing, flashing a few times before disappearing.
He clenched his fist and felt a constant stream of warmth flowing to every part of his body. After consuming this part of the tissue, it would not only bring great benefits to his body, but also provide some spiritual nourishment.
This is firstly because the ingredients are fresh and eaten right after they are taken out, so there is no loss of nutrients. Secondly, the life level of this thing itself is also very high, and it is only a step away from being a fighter. Its own spirit has begun to contact that world and grow instinctively, so this kind of tissue is generated on the forehead.
Since most creatures in the fusion land do not know how to make good use of these powers, they only pile and increase them blindly until one day they achieve a qualitative transformation. This leads to an extreme enrichment of high-energy nutrients and substances that are beneficial to fighters.
Even based on his consumption, eating these tissues would be enough to last him ten days of normal consumption.
It's a pity that this creature is relatively rare due to its temperament, and it is even rarer to grow to this size. According to the picture book, it will be hunted by fighters almost as soon as it appears. It is also because this place has rarely been used as a hunting ground by fighters, so he ran into it this time.
He thought to himself that he had come to the right place this time.
Looking at the ram again, he changed his mind, pulled out his short blade, and cut off the pair of horns from it. Because the picture book said that some fighters like to collect this thing very much, and are even willing to exchange some alienated tissues and food for it, so he planned to take it with him.
After tying the thing to the suitcase, he looked down at the hill and then... continued to look for the next one.
After walking down the hill for more than an hour, he found that the surrounding grass and trees were becoming increasingly sparse, and various living things were becoming increasingly rare.
This situation is very abnormal. If there are no special circumstances, the creatures in the fusion land will grow wildly.
At this time, he smelled an extremely fragrant odor. Following the smell forward, he saw piles of earth about three or four meters high. They almost filled the entire field of vision at a glance, and the fragrance was so strong that it was almost indissoluble.
In the pile of earth lies a large number of snow-white and plump grains like rice. These grains look like food, but they are actually ant eggs, which are extremely nutritious.
Because it is difficult to store, it is usually supplied to fighters in small plates, but here it is everywhere.
For ordinary creatures, this thing is actually very difficult to digest. After being eaten, the ant eggs will hatch in the body of the organism, and then the larvae will feed on these organisms and their alienated tissues to grow. When they become adults, they will break out of the body and then lay eggs.
If there is no control and creatures that can digest these ant eggs, then sooner or later they will turn the entire area into a nest for breeding ant eggs.
However, it was not a problem for a fighter to absorb these things. So for him, this place was like a granary.
Moreover, this thing tastes very delicious, soft, sweet, and when eaten with other ingredients, the nutritional value can be better absorbed. Otherwise, it would not be specially selected as a food for fighters.
However, he needed to be efficient in his actions here, and there was no need to eat them one bite at a time, so his biological field moved, and all the ant eggs within the range floated up, then shattered in an instant, turning into wisps of white mist, gathering towards him and merging into his body.
