Just as the mountain lizard rushed in front of Niu Dachun,
Suddenly, a huge pig's face appeared in front of Niu Dachun, emitting a foul stench. Niu Dachun immediately showed a look of disgust.
All I saw was...
The mountain hyena mercilessly extended its sharp fangs to provoke Niu Dachun, but Niu Dachun simply stretched out a hand, grabbed the mountain hyena's fangs, and then swung it away forcefully.
The mountain hyena took flight, tracing a beautiful arc in the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
Boom—
The enormous sound seemed to shatter the entire forest, and the huge shockwave directly smashed the trees within a five-meter radius, creating a huge crater in the ground.
The mountain hyena then let out a painful scream, a scream that sounded like a pig being slaughtered during the Lunar New Year.
However, mountain hyenas have thick skin and tough flesh, so this small injury does not cause them any real harm.
Soon, the mountain hyena climbed out of the pit again, roaring at Niu Dachun, and charged at him once more, completely reckless, determined to kill Niu Dachun right there.
However, Niu Dachun simply leaped into the air, easily dodging the mountain lizard's attack. The mountain lizard, standing on the ground, looked at Niu Dachun soaring into the air, a bewildered expression on its pig face.
He was yelling wildly at Niu Dachun, his feet digging into the ground, looking like he was about to explode with rage.
If mountain hyenas could talk, they would definitely say, "You damn old man, you can even fly! Get down here right now!"
The next second,
Niu Dachun stepped straight down and stomped heavily on the mountain bream's back.
Bang--
Shan Lie suddenly felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him; his body couldn't withstand it at all, and he collapsed to the ground. Moreover, Niu Dachun continued to exert force.
At this moment, the mountain hyena cried out even more miserably, its mournful cries echoing for a long time in Yunchuan Valley. Even Chen Yuancang, who was outside the secret realm, couldn't help but get goosebumps when he heard this scream.
Click—
The mountain hyena's spine snapped instantly under Niu Dachun's foot, and blood gushed out. Niu Dachun stepped aside to avoid being splattered with the blood.
The mountain lizard looked at Niu Dachun, its roars becoming low and its eyes filled with fear of death. Humans fear death, and so do demonic beasts.
Suddenly, Niu Dachun was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a beast core hidden inside the mountain hyena, which looked like a large pearl.
Beast cores, as the name suggests, are a type of elixir found within the bodies of demonic beasts, similar to the golden core currently contained within Niu Dachun's body. Only demonic beasts of the second rank or higher possess beast cores.
Like spirit stones, beast cores also contain spiritual energy, making them treasures for Niu Dachun.
Niu Dachun looked at the dying Shanli lying on the ground, a greedy look appearing in his eyes.
"I originally intended to leave you with a complete corpse, but since you have a beast core inside you, then I'm sorry to say."
After saying that, Niu Dachun channeled his spiritual energy and threw a punch at Shan Lie.
Bang--
The mountain mane on the ground instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist, with flesh and blood flying everywhere. Niu Dachun kicked aside chunks of flesh and picked up the bloody beast core.
Niu Dachun wiped away the pus and blood from the beast core, and the beast core immediately revealed a radiant appearance, making even the most precious pearls pale in comparison.
Moreover, Niu Dachun could sense the spiritual energy circulating within the beast core. He really couldn't resist the urge to absorb it immediately. However, Niu Dachun didn't do so.
This is only the first level of the trial. There are four more levels to come, and there might be even better things waiting for Niu Dachun. It would be wonderful to collect them all at once and absorb them all at once.
With that thought in mind, Niu Dachun put the beast core into his spatial storage.
Niu Dachun couldn't help but wonder, if this pig demon had a beast core, could the Five Poisonous Insects in his body also have something similar?
Just as Niu Dachun was thinking this...
Niu Dachun suddenly felt a sharp pain, so intense that sweat poured down his forehead.
At the same time, a buzzing sound came from inside Niu Dachun's body, like the buzzing of a mosquito.
Niu Dachun understood. It must be the five poisonous insects inside his body that knew what he had just thought and were now biting his body in a protective manner, clearly unhappy.
However, to Niu Dachun's surprise, the Five Poisonous Insects had now reached the point where they could see his thoughts, which meant that the Five Poisonous Insects in Niu Dachun's body had grown again.
Niu Dachun tried to beg for mercy.
"Okay, okay, stop biting me, I was just joking."
"How could I possibly take your lifeblood?"
After Niu Dachun expressed his thoughts, the intense pain in his body indeed stopped immediately, and the places where he had been bitten by the Five-Poisonous Insects were healed again. Niu Dachun couldn't help but sigh. It seems that this Five-Poisonous Insect has quite a temper.
After dealing with the mountain bream, Niu Dachun continued searching in the forest for a while, but he didn't find any other bone-refining herbs. Instead, he found three aphrodisiac herbs.
This aphrodisiac herb, just from its name you know its function: to enable men to give women a stable and fulfilling experience. It can completely transform a man who can only do it once a night into one who can do it seven times a night; its effects far surpass anything found online.
However, this thing was useless to Niu Dachun. He didn't need it. But this aphrodisiac herb was still a spiritual herb, albeit a low-grade one.
With a wave of his hand, Niu Dachun stored the three aphrodisiac herbs into his spatial storage.
Niu Dachun then continued forward, and in a short while he reached the end of the forest. At the end of the forest, a moon gate appeared, which was obviously the place leading to the next level of the secret realm.
However, Niu Dachun did not search the entire grove; there might still be some spiritual herbs he had left behind.
With that thought in mind, Niu Dachun released the Five Poisonous Insects.
When the Five Poisonous Insects appeared, Niu Dachun showed a surprised expression. Just as Niu Dachun had thought, the Five Poisonous Insects had also grown when Niu Dachun broke through to the peak of the Golden Core stage.
All I saw was...
The originally jet-black non-venomous insects have now turned blackish-red and are twice as big as before, with each insect now having grown six pairs of wings.
Before Niu Dachun could even give the order, these five poisonous insects already knew what they had to do: help Niu Dachun collect spiritual herbs.
Previously, the five-poisonous insects couldn't stray too far from their mother, but now that they've grown up, they can leave their mother's side at great distances. A dark mass of five-poisonous insects flapped their wings and entered the forest.
They began searching for medicinal herbs.
Niu Dachun, on the other hand, passed through the moon gate and arrived at the second level of the secret realm.
