But even so, the spiritual energy absorbed into the body must be screened and purified before it can be used.
Otherwise, once the chaotic breath accumulates in the body too much, it will affect the foundation at least, and the cultivation base will be ruined at worst.
So in the world of monsters, whether it is Su Anran or Song Jue, if they want to quickly recover the true energy in their bodies, they must rely on pills to recover.Wanting to restore the true qi in the body by absorbing spiritual qi through meditation like Xuanjie did, that is undoubtedly a dream.
This is why Song Jue said that the demon world is quite dangerous.
Because they come from the mysterious world, in this world, true qi belongs to the situation of using one point and one point less.Unlike the demon hunters in this world, they hunt monsters and use various materials from the monster's body to strengthen themselves - in this way, in Su Anran's view, the natives in this world are actually no different from monsters.
Perhaps for demons, humans are also heresies: after all, demons who eat people are monsters in the eyes of humans; and humans who eat demons are seen by monsters, why not?
But fortunately, no matter whether it is Su Anran or Song Jue, the true energy in their bodies is larger than that of ordinary monks - Su Anran's "True Yuan Breathing Method" comes from Song Jue's Zhen Yuan Sect.It's just that Song Jue didn't know that Su Anran had already learned the "True Essence Breathing Method", a secret technique that could never be passed on by the sect, so this time when she entered the demon world, she was worried that Su Anran didn't have enough medicine, so she specially prepared it for Su Anran. some.
In fact, when Su Anran took the ten bottles of True Yuan Pill that Song Jue gave him, he didn't know how to speak.
True Yuan Pill is a panacea used by monks in the Soul Condensation Realm to quickly recover their true energy.
The grade of this panacea is not high, but the price is not low at all.
The ten bottles of True Essence Pills that Song Jue gave to Su Anran—ten in each bottle, a total of one hundred—are worth ten One-pattern Soul Cultivation Pills.
With Song Jue's status in the Zhenyuan Sect, he could probably receive two bottles of One Pattern Soul Nourishing Pill every month, that is, twenty One Pattern Soul Nourishing Pills.So she prepared ten bottles of True Essence Pills for Su Anran. It was impossible to say that Su Anran was not moved, but he deliberately refused, but Song Jue said, "You were invited by me to come to the world of demons to help you. The reason for letting you spend your own money?" He directly refused.
So, in the end, Su Anran had no choice but to accept these ten bottles of True Yuan Pills, and put them together with the hundreds of bottles of True Yuan Pills in the storage ring.
Su Anran, who was born in Taiyi Valley, really doesn't lack panacea.
What's more, the "Zhenyuan Breathing Method" practiced by Su Anran is more authentic than Song Jue, a disciple from the Zhenyuan Sect.
"We will continue to set off in the afternoon tomorrow. Do you have any ideas now?"
"Let's go to my previous cave to check?"
"Yes." Su Anran naturally would not object to Song Jue's proposal, "But do you still remember how to get there?"
"Of course." Song Jue nodded, "But before that, we must first figure out where we are now."
"The only thing that is certain at the moment is that we should be on a certain mountain."
"There are many mountains and forests in this world, so if there is no reference or more detailed location, it is difficult to determine our exact location." Song Jue shook his head, "The cave is near Jiutou Mountain. I took the road from there and left Afterwards, I met people from Jiumen Village, so if I can return to Jiumen Village, or Jiutou Mountain, I should be able to find my way."
"Okay, then we will take turns to watch the night and rest. We will leave here in the daytime and see if we can find villages and towns nearby."
Song Jue nodded: "Then you will watch the night first."
"Go ahead." Su Anran shook her head, "Don't be polite to me, after all, I'm paid."
The night in the world of demons and demons is not safe, so it is natural to keep vigil. If it is in the mysterious world, the monks only need to spread their spiritual consciousness, and then just meditate, because there are no monsters or fierce beasts that can break into people with their own destiny. The area guarded by monks above the border.But it's not the case in the world of demons. No matter if it's Su Anran or Song Jue, they dare not just fall asleep in the five-meter warning range that can only be extended by demon oil candles.
As for the work of night watch, the people in the middle are the hardest. Those who are in the top of the list can wake up until dawn after the first round; Relatively better.
Su Anran asked Song Jue to watch the night first, but it was not an act of impoliteness, but was taking care of Song Jue.
Seeing that Su Anran was so persistent, Song Jue didn't continue to refuse, and went to sleep with her clothes on.
After a while, Song Jue's breathing became steady.
Neither Song Jue nor Su Anran are pretentious. They know very well that in the world of monsters, where meditation cannot be used to replace sleep, and the energy consumed may not be replenished in time, they want to preserve enough physical strength and energy. , then you can only maintain and restore your energy through sleep, just like when your cultivation base was low.
Therefore, Su Anran will not pretend to be a big deal, or talk about gentlemanly demeanor.
He woke up Song Jue to replace him after he felt that his mental state was more than half exhausted.
Silent all night.
When daytime came, Su Anran and Song Jue had already exchanged vigil twice.
This made Su Anran realize that the flow of time in the demon world is likely to be different from other worlds: Judging from the sense of time that has not been completely confused, Su Anran suspects that the demon world has two days of day and one night—in other words , that is, there are 72 hours in a day in the demon world.
For this point, Su Anran doesn't know whether it is good or bad.
When the daytime began, Su Anran woke up Song Jue again, and the latter quickly packed up the demon oil candles, and then left the dilapidated main hall with Su Anran.
There was no danger along the way.
After traveling on the mountain road for about several hours, Su Anran and Song Jue quickly descended the mountain and appeared beside a dirt road.
This dirt road is a bit similar to the kind of ridge path that is common in the countryside, but compared to the muddy dirt road in the countryside, this dirt road has obvious traces of construction. It is obvious that someone is responsible for maintaining and clearing the weeds on both sides.
"There is a way." When Song Jue saw the dirt road, a smile filled his face.
Seeing Song Jue's appearance, Su Anran knew that this dirt road must not be easy: "Is there anything special about it?"
"Because human beings are at a disadvantage in the world of demons, they usually act as a group with villages and towns." Song Jue replied, "The wild area is too dangerous, even those experienced demon hunters may not be able to explore outside all the time. .But the number of human beings is too small after all, and naturally there will not be too many gathering places, so what if we tell those demon hunters hunting in the wild that there are safe gathering places nearby?"
"By these dirt roads?"
"En." Song Jue nodded, "These dirt roads are like guiding signs, telling outsiders that there is a gathering place of villages and towns nearby. So as long as we walk along this dirt road, we will be able to find the gathering place."
Chapter 203 Lin Shanzhuang
Linshanzhuang is the name of the gathering place where Su Anran and Song Jue went on this trip.
Human gathering places in this world are rarely able to form the size of a small town, and even a village is a little bit reluctant.Because usually a gathering place is only in the size of one or two hundred people, and those gathering places that can exceed the size of 200 people can be called a huge scale in this world.
After all, one or two hundred people is not equal to one or two hundred households.
Calculated according to one household with two members, it is only about a hundred households.
Linshanzhuang is a village with a population of only about 150 households, about [-]—including women and children, excluding the elderly and weak.Because the old and the weak cannot survive in this cruel world, the old and the weak without any personal skills will only be driven out by the villages and towns, and become the rations of wild beasts and monsters wandering in the wild.
When Su Anran and Song Jue entered the village, Su Anran instantly felt the awe of those eyes that fell on him.
It was a look that could make people feel excited.
To put it simply, it is easy to become inflated.
He knows why.
Because the wilderness of the demon world is too cruel, the human beings who can walk in the wilderness are all powerful people.
This world is also divided into levels.
It's just that when Su Anran heard about the division of ranks in the demon world, he still couldn't help laughing.
Among the demon hunters, the strongest can be called Zhuli. According to Song Jue, there are nine Zhuli in the human race, and each of them is the strongest in a field, such as knives and guns. , bow, stick, fist, etc., each Zhuli has a very special and powerful ability.Then there are generals and captains, corresponding to the big monsters in the two realms of Zhenyu and Huaxiang in the Soul Condensation Realm; demon.
The last one is the blade, which means recruit egg, referring to a novice who has just become a demon hunter.
Every gathering place in the demon world must have the means to cultivate "blades", otherwise it would be impossible to hold a gathering place.
And because of the cruelty of this world, almost any gathering place can be said to be at the level of all soldiers. As long as it does not encounter a large-scale monster attack, it can usually deal with various dangerous situations.If you are really unlucky and encounter a large-scale monster attack, then you can only look at the high-end combat power of each other.
What is high-end combat power?
Those who are commander and above can be regarded as high-end combat power.
Every gathering place must have a commander sitting in town.
Those demon hunters who can wander back and forth between different gathering places and are only active in the wild have a unique name.
Wolf.
As for whether it is a lone wolf or a pack of wolves, it depends on the size of the opponent.
And to be able to become a wolf, usually at least have to be at the level of Fanchang.
The reason why Su Anran laughed when he heard these contents was not that he thought it was ridiculous, but that he became more and more certain that the unlucky ghost who traveled to this world was a truly capable guy, not someone from later generations.After all, only people who have lived in that era will bring such a distinct military color to the division of strength, because if Su Anran is asked to divide the so-called ranks, he will definitely come up with S rank, A rank Class, or Lieutenant General of the Four Emperors and Seven Martial Arts Generals, or Kage Class, Upper Ninja and Lower Ninja, etc.
From the way of addressing, from the way of class naming, from the legacy of inheritance, from the influence of architectural style, etc., Su Anran can now be sure.
The opponent is a guy who lived at the end of the Edo period and the beginning of the Meiji Restoration.
And very likely, he is an Onmyoji.
Because at that time, it was the most powerful period of Japanese Onmyoji, so the name "Rinchuriki" was used as the highest level.And because Onmyoji was in the political center of Japan at that time, and the end of Edo period belonged to the period of the Falling Curtain Movement, so under the "Inchūriki", there are the methods of addressing generals, captains, and chiefs.
As for the term "blade", it was a joking name for assassins in the Meiji period, and it could also be regarded as another name for some kind of cornerstone. It is also very appropriate.
After figuring out the information, Su Anran actually doesn't think much of Linshanzhuang.
It's just because of the need to collect information here, so I choose to stay here.
There were no cliche stories that Su Anran wanted to see.
A chief who claimed to be surnamed Chen and called Chen Jing came forward to receive Su Anran and Song Jue after they entered Linshan Villa.
Su Anran and Song Jue's strength, although they have stepped into the Soul Condensation Realm, there is no such thing as a Soul Condensation Realm in this world. In terms of momentum alone, they are weaker than the captain—although if they really move First of all, the one who died must be the captain, but people in this world don't know this, so they are in charge of receiving Su Anran and Song Jue, who appear to be weaker than the captain on the surface, but stronger than the captain. The relationship between the two can only be the strongest boss in Linshanzhuang.
After the other party introduced himself, Su Anran was a little surprised by the other party's last name.
But if you think about it carefully, this world is after all an oriental fairy tale style, and it's not the legend of gods and ghosts in Japan, so there's nothing strange about this surname.The only thing he finds funny is that although the traveler from Japan has left his own influence in this world, such as the sword drawing technique, such as the architectural style, such as the hierarchy system, etc., he still failed to use his influence Maximize it.
Otherwise, I am afraid that the current Fanchang Chen will not be called Chen Jing, but will be called Jingbian or something.
Here, another very interesting story is involved.
"By the way, can I ask how far it is from Jiutou Mountain?"
After Chen Jing brought Su Anran and Song Jue to an empty room, Su Anran asked directly.
Every gathering place will more or less build some houses for the passing demon hunters to use when they are resting.
Of course, another aspect is also to consider that if outsiders migrate to the gathering place, they can move in immediately without spending time building new houses-this kind of thing is not impossible.Once the gathering place is breached by the demons, if the lost humans do not want to become the food of the demons, they must find a new gathering place to join. This is also the main way of population growth in this world.
These are basic information, but Su Anran has already understood them thoroughly, so he will not be surprised when Chen Jing brings them to the empty house.
"Nine Heads Mountain?" However, after hearing the name, Chen Jing couldn't help but frown.
Then Su Anran discovered that the other party looked at her with a bit of deeply hidden suspicion.
"What happened to Jiutou Mountain?" Su Anran didn't give the other party a chance to react, and he also had no way to confess to Song Jue. At this moment, he had already realized some problems, so he had to act first, "Jiutou Mountain What happened? Please let this big brother tell us."
Both Su Anran and Song Jue looked quite young.
As for Chen Jing, he seemed to be at least 40 years old, so Su Anran called him big brother was nothing.
Seeing that the flustered expression on Su Anran's face did not seem to be fake, the suspicion in Chen Jing's eyes also subsided slightly: "You don't know yet?"
"We... brothers and sisters can also be regarded as people from Jiumen Village..."
"Is it?"
"You know, I have been wandering outside for a long time, and I always want to find a place to live a stable life..."
Probably it was Su Anran's words that aroused Chen Jing's memories, and he couldn't help but sighed, "I understand."
Su Anran smiled. He was deliberately guiding the other party's emotions, so he naturally didn't have any objections to Chen Jing's interruption of his words, so he quickly said again: "Our brothers and sisters live in Jiumen Village. After a period of time, I was generally satisfied. However, due to some reasons, we went out to chase a big monster, but we never thought that this big monster was too cunning, took us around Jiutou Mountain, and then And led us to run around all the way, chasing all the way to this mountain forest, and we completely lost the trace of that big monster..."
"What does that big monster you mentioned look like?" Chen Jing asked again.
The demons in the demon world generally have different characteristics, and it is rare for two identical demons to appear.
Not to mention, the big monster is a sublimated version of the monster, and the improvement of strength will also bring them the growth of different abilities, and the changes brought about by this growth will make it even more impossible for the same big monster to appear.
It can be said that in the world of demons, there may be monsters with similar abilities, or even similar species, but it is absolutely impossible for two monsters with the same appearance, temperament, etc. to appear.This is like human beings are clearly a species group, but there are yellow people, white people, and black people, and no matter what skin color or race they are, their appearance is also different-it is based on this, so Su Anran's treatment of monsters The origin is somewhat suspicious.
Seeing Chen Jing asking at this time, Su Anran knew that the other party still did not trust them.
"That big monster has a pair of sharp horns on its forehead, which looks a bit like bull horns. It has long red hair, a complexion like a bright moon, and a clean and tidy face, but its snow-white neck has obvious purple-red veins." It was Song Jue who answered, because she was the only one who had seen the big monster in Jiutou Mountain, "Wearing red clothes and wearing a black cloak, we only saw a wine gourd in his right hand..."
"Jiu Tun!" Before Song Jue could finish speaking, Chen Jing had already exclaimed, "Who the hell are you?!"
Fuck a chicken!
When Su Anran heard Chen Jing's exclamation, she already cursed subconsciously.
Swallow! ?
If he guessed correctly, the big monster Song Jue met must be Shuten-douji.
This kind of monster is extremely famous in Hyakki Night Walk. Haven't you watched countless games that use SSR or even UR to represent its noble status?And just by looking at Chen Jing's appearance, Su Anran knew that this thing could definitely be regarded as a bad name in this world.
Given that they are not as strong as the captain on the surface, to chase and kill such a big monster, if he is Chen Jing, he will not be as simple as exclaiming, he will definitely treat the two of them as monsters, and let him go when he turns around. Someone come and kill them.
So Su Anran looked helplessly at Song Jue: Why didn't you tell me the appearance of this monster earlier? !
Song Jue: You didn't ask me, did you?
Chapter 204 Girl, Your Start Is As Strong As I Was Before
drink.
If Su Anran guessed correctly, the prototype of that monster should be Shuten-douji, a powerful existence that ranks first in any version of Japanese monster legends - there are many legendary versions of Japan's three major monsters , but the unshakable two rankings are Jiu Tun Doji and Tamamo Mae, and the remaining one is varied: Daitengu, Ogakumaru, Slick Ghost, Chongde Emperor, Qingxingdeng, Evil Prajna, Net Bride, 98-eyed Hundred Eyed Ghost, etc. .
