It took Jiang Yuan two full hours to enter a recovery state, and the time that followed was still unbearable. The Corpse Vulture Toxin was being extracted from his blood little by little, and the side effect was that it accelerated the toxin's effects.
"These Grey-faced Vultures are truly insidious. Next time I see your Grey-faced Vulture clan, I'll shoot them down one by one and turn them into roasted wings!" Jiang Yuan's face turned as red as an eggplant, a sign that the poison had taken hold. However, this was also the Corpse Vulture's last struggle.
A final burst of energy before death can be swift. The Corpse Vulture's venom seemed to sense that Jiang Yuan wanted to uncover its plan, so it attempted to poison Jiang Yuan at the last moment.
Four hours passed in the blink of an eye. Leng Yue returned again, but Jiang Yuan was still recovering, so Leng Yue left again after leaving behind a large number of cores.
"The killing intent is really strong!" Although Jiang Yuan didn't open his eyes, he had already sensed it was Leng Yue when she approached.
From 6 p.m. to 2 a.m., Leng Yue had slaughtered countless monsters in the past eight hours. The bloodstains on her body were so thick that they were difficult to wash off. Unless she was discarded, anyone who got close could smell the pungent stench of blood.
During this period, Leng Yue also successfully raised the Night Hunter's ability rating to C level. Although the bloodline level is still at the initial stage, the Night Child's amplification multiplier has reached 1.4 under the C level rating. In other words, Leng Yue's energy points in the darkness have reached 320, which is enough to make her the sharpest blade of the Oath.
"The oath is destined to rise!" Jiang Yuan opened his eyes. He didn't like wearing a mask. One day he would be able to stand openly in this southern city and enjoy the admiration of the weak.
At this moment, all the self-healing potential factors returned to the potential seed in his lower dantian. Under the self-healing potential, the injuries in his body were restored to their original state, and he was even stronger than before he was injured.
As for the corpse vulture venom!
"Divine Wood Canon, attempt to reach the second level!"
If Jiang Yuan's mask were removed, one would find him utterly insane. He had abandoned the method of using various medicinal herbs to steadily advance to the second level of the Divine Wood Scripture, and instead chose the most dangerous approach.
Fight poison with poison!
As long as the poison doesn't kill me, I can become immune through adaptation.
Ning Yanlan also noticed Jiang Yuan's abnormality. Within a one-meter radius of Jiang Yuan, there was a highly corrosive poisonous gas emanating from his pores. This was a relatively weak type of corpse vulture toxin. One could only imagine how terrifying it would be if the corpse vulture toxin that could not be expelled accumulated in the heart area.
With his injuries repaired, Jiang Yuan could feel his divine energy accumulating within him, increasing little by little, no longer just a few points of divine energy as before.
"Devour!"
After the divine power is restored, it forms a fine, impenetrable net within the body, instantly trapping the corpse vulture toxins that have gathered at the heart.
"Pfft!" Jiang Yuan spat out a mouthful of dark blood.
"Apostle, are you alright?" Ning Yanlan had been on guard all night, and when she saw Jiang Yuan make a move, she immediately stepped forward to ask.
"This mouthful of poisonous blood has circulated in my body a million times. It's good that I vomited it out!" Jiang Yuan's complexion was as he said. After vomiting out the poisonous blood that had accumulated in his body, his complexion had recovered considerably.
"How could it be so toxic!" Ning Yanlan looked closely and saw that the poisonous blood on the ground was bubbling continuously, and in the blink of an eye, it corroded a large area of the floor.
"It would be strange if a ninth-tier Grey-faced Vulture wasn't strong!"
Jiang Yuan said calmly that his mission was not over yet. Shenmu Dian had not yet begun to break through to the second level. If Shenmu Dian truly reached the second level, then his flesh shackles could also enter a perfect state. At that time, he would be able to gain a foothold in Nancheng with his ancient martial arts realm.
As the Divine Wood Scripture circulated, self-healing potential factors instantly covered the Corpse Vulture Toxin, and the intense toxicity stimulated Jiang Yuan's bodily activity.
"My stamina is being depleted so quickly!" Jiang Yuan suddenly realized he was hungry. Ancient martial arts power is not like divine power; it is power that needs to be absorbed and transformed by oneself, and it is the foundation of the strength of ancient martial artists.
"Fetal pills!"
Jiang Yuan took out the Fetal Pills and ate them one by one. If others saw his 'wasteful speed,' they would definitely feel heartbroken. What does it mean to eat one Fetal Pill every three seconds? It's already considered lucky if a sixth-order mithril core can yield one bottle of sixth-order fetal pills, and a bottle of sixth-order fetal pills only contains ten pills. This means that Jiang Yuan can finish one bottle of fetal pills every half minute, and he can easily finish one hundred and twenty bottles in an hour.
Even Jiang Yuan himself didn't have that many fetal pills!
"This is insane! Even a gluttonous beast couldn't finish this!" Jiang Yuan felt like crying. He hadn't expected that opening the second level of the Divine Wood Codex would require so much ancient martial arts power.
Ten minutes passed, and just as Jiang Yuan was about to give up, he suddenly felt a sense of fullness in his body, a feeling that was familiar to Jiang Yuan, who was a martial artist.
"My physical body has broken through to a new level!" Jiang Yuan let out a burp. The twenty bottles of fetal pills had become nourishment for him to improve the quality of his physical body, and he did not feel that he had suffered a loss.
The physical body is divided into different levels. Consuming grains and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth are two different concepts. Although Jiang Yuan's physical body has not reached the point of relying entirely on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it is more than enough to absorb the flesh of those sacred beasts.
"Is it done?" Ning Yanlan asked anxiously after seeing the fluctuations in Jiang Yuan's body disappear.
"You're in excellent condition, it feels like a qualitative leap compared to the past two days!" Jiang Yuan nodded happily.
Before his injury, he had not activated his self-healing potential. Now, not only has he activated his self-healing potential, but Shenmu Dian has also reached the second level.
The combination of the Great Wilderness Body Tempering Technique and the Divine Wood Canon made his body unbreakable below the sixth rank.
"Really all better?" Ning Yanlan was still a little skeptical, because the recovery was too fast, exceeding her expectations.
"Is it fake?!" Jiang Yuan was in high spirits as his injuries healed. He grabbed Ning Yanlan's wrist and laughed, "Come on, let me try using the Holy Spirit's protection myself!"
As he spoke, the divine power disappeared at fifteen o'clock, but what reappeared was a unique power—the protection of the Holy Spirit!
"Indeed, it's quite fulfilling to personally serve Lord Bai!" Jiang Yuan's laughter was completely out of place with his faceless ghost mask.
Ning Yanlan chuckled inwardly at the joke, but feigned aloofness and said, "Then do you serve other women?"
"Others?" Jiang Yuan shrugged, his expression aloof. "Other women? They're not good enough for me!"
Ning Yanlan, who had rushed into Jiang Yuan's arms, pushed him away and then scolded him with a smile, "Your heart is racing, you must be lying!"
"I'm innocent! The Corpse Vulture Toxin just now condensed from my heart. Anyone would have a racing heart after walking on the edge of life and death like that!" Jiang Yuan explained speechlessly.
"I don't believe it, unless you prove it with every single second of the rest of your life!" Ning Yanlan said petulantly.
"Wow, woman, you're so domineering!" Jiang Yuan was both amused and exasperated by this request!
"You taught me to be more assertive in my actions!"
"Okay, I like it!"
