As Qin Xin stepped into the passage, he felt the scene before him shift and suddenly found himself in a dense forest.
"It seems that entering this hunting park secret realm involves random teleportation."
Qin Xin searched around but found no trace of anyone, so he guessed the reason. However, this was for the best. If they had all been teleported together, encountering Qin Yunfeng would have caused some trouble.
As Qin Xin wandered through the dense forest, searching for his way, he discovered a monstrous beast that was at least ten feet tall.
The beast had gray fur all over its body, with a wisp of blue fur on its head emitting wisps of spiritual energy.
"Level 1 high-ranking monster, Jungle Wolf".
Qin Xin instantly recognized the level of the monster from its appearance. However, the jungle wolf seemed unusually weak at this moment, curled up to the side licking the fur on its belly. Upon closer inspection, there was a claw mark on its belly.
"You're unlucky to have met me."
Jungle wolves are usually solitary creatures with incredibly sharp forepaws. Although they possess terrifying self-healing abilities and their adult strength is comparable to that of a human at the ninth level of the Acquired Realm, their strength will be greatly reduced under such injuries.
Qin Xin naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity; he would strike while the iron was hot and finish it off. Pity and such things simply don't exist in this dog-eat-dog world.
Before the jungle wolf could react, Qin Xin suddenly stretched out his right hand, a surge of true energy flowing through it.
As his true energy gradually condensed and solidified, Qin Xin's right palm continuously emitted destructive fluctuations of true energy.
Take the initiative.
"Bang!"
Qin Xin suddenly darted out from the bushes. The palm strike came so suddenly that the jungle wolf had no time to dodge. The crisp and loud sound quickly spread, and the wound that had begun to heal started bleeding again.
Qin Xin frowned slightly when he saw that his palm strike had not killed the jungle wolf. He had underestimated the jungle wolf's defensive capabilities. The fact that his strength at the ninth level of the Acquired Realm had not been enough to kill it instantly was a testament to the power of demonic beasts.
"roar!"
The jungle wolf, suddenly ambushed, was furious, its scarlet eyes fixed on Qin Xin.
With a howl, the wisp of blue fur on the jungle wolf's head emitted a light, and then its sharp claws pounced directly at Qin Xin, leaving a blur as it tried to tear the attacker to shreds.
Qin Xin dodged, then channeled his inner energy again, rapidly condensing it in his palm. A black staff about three feet long appeared out of thin air in his hand.
"Get down!" With a soft shout, Qin Xin gripped the black stick tightly with both hands and swung it at the jungle wolf.
The enraged jungle wolf did not dodge at all; in its mind, it could tear the black stick in front of it to shreds with a single claw.
bite!
The moment the wolf claws made contact with the black stick, a crisp sound was produced.
The stick, which should have shattered under its claws, remained intact. Sensing something was wrong, the jungle wolf turned to flee.
Seeing this, Qin Xin strode forward and stabbed the jungle wolf in the waist, where blood was seeping out.
With a scream, the poor jungle wolf's pupils dilated as a black stick pierced its waist, and it lost its breath.
Seeing the jungle wolf dead, Qin Xin let out a long breath, and the black stick in his hand instantly disappeared. That black stick was Qin Xin's Martial Spirit Fire Stick.
"Fortunately, the jungle wolf was injured."
Still shaken, Qin Xin thought to himself that if the jungle wolf hadn't been injured, he probably wouldn't have been able to defeat it. If he had underestimated it, he might have even gotten hurt. This experience taught Qin Xin some valuable combat lessons.
Qin Xin took out a small knife, cut open the fur of the jungle wolf, and searched for a long time, but still couldn't find the beast crystal, which left him feeling somewhat disappointed.
Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Xin immediately used the Spirit Devouring Stone to begin absorbing the soul power of the jungle wolf.
Since the last time he devoured the martial spirits of Qin Yu and Qin Shi, Qin Xin has mastered how to use this spirit-devouring stone.
Surprisingly, the soul power of the jungle wolf was significantly stronger than that of Qin Yu and Qin Shi's martial spirits, and its pure power formed an energy vortex that continuously poured into the black stick martial spirit.
With so much soul power constantly being refined and infused, Qin Xin felt that his Fire Stick Martial Spirit seemed to be saturated, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.
This might be related to his low Martial Spirit level, which makes the absorption of the jungle wolf's soul power refined by the Devouring Spirit Stone extremely slow.
After a long while, Qin Xin slowly opened his eyes.
After this absorption, Qin Xin discovered that the Soul Devouring Stone's Soul Devouring talent did not seem to be unlimited. After each use, the Martial Spirit needed to completely digest the absorbed soul power before it could absorb again. Moreover, if the absorbed soul power was stronger than his own Martial Spirit, it might even burst the Martial Spirit.
Once the energy was fully digested, Qin Xin could clearly feel that his Black Stick Martial Spirit was absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth much faster.
Having tasted success, Qin Xin did not hesitate and continued to search for his next target.
This time, his target was a level one peak demonic beast. This beast had sharp teeth and claws that gleamed with a chilling luster, and a pair of dark pupils that vigilantly watched its surroundings.
Upon seeing its appearance, Qin Xin immediately recognized that this demonic beast was a level one peak demonic beast, the Heavenly Fire Demon Wolf. Its distinctive feature was the red fur on its head. A mature Heavenly Fire Demon Wolf possessed strength no less than that of a martial artist in the Innate Realm.
The Heavenly Fire Demon Wolf in front of him was devouring a low-level demon beast, and Qin Xin quietly approached.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, the Heavenly Fire Wolf was startled and hastily retreated. A figure shot out from the bushes, and a fist containing destructive true energy slammed down on the Heavenly Fire Wolf's head.
With a single blow, the Heavenly Fire Demon Wolf howled in pain, opening its ferocious maw filled with fangs to bite at the figure's neck.
The figure moved with incredible speed, deftly dodging the fatal blow.
Looking at the Heavenly Fire Demon Wolf trying to escape, the figure couldn't help but sneer, gently clenching his fist and softly uttering, "Fall down!"
A jet-black staff appeared in his hand and struck the Heavenly Fire Demon Wolf heavily in the waist.
Wolf-type demonic beasts all share a common characteristic: a head of bronze, bones of iron, and a waist of tofu. With this attack, the Heavenly Fire Demon Wolf had no chance to retaliate and died instantly. Qin Xin's attack methods were also more ferocious than before.
During the dissection of the Fire Demon Wolf's corpse, Qin Xin discovered an irregularly shaped crystal inside its abdomen that emitted a fiery red light.
"Beast crystal?" Qin Xin's eyes lit up immediately.
This beast crystal is an energy crystal formed by demonic beasts. Its energy is complex and cannot be directly absorbed by martial artists. However, it is used in some pills and formations, and it is also a very important material when forging weapons. It can give weapons some special effects and is very popular among martial artists.
"A level one fire attribute beast crystal, not bad." Qin Xin grinned and put the beast crystal into his Qiankun bag, which he always carried with him.
As for why Qin Xin didn't put the fragmented map into the space, it was mainly because Danqing wouldn't allow it. In order to avoid arguing with that old man, Qin Xin took a Qiankun bag from Qin Xue.
The Qiankun Bag functions similarly to spatial rings and spatial bracelets, allowing users to store items. Although the Qiankun Bag has limited space, its price is relatively low, making it widely available.
"You little piece of trash, what a small world! Hand over your Qiankun bag, then kneel down and kowtow to me, and I might consider sparing your life!"
A sudden sound came from behind. Qin Xin turned around and saw a figure emerge from the jungle. It was a young man in a family uniform, with a family emblem on his chest that was quite eye-catching.
The person who arrived was Qin Yunfeng.
