Chapter 191 Great Harvest

In the forest, Lin Xiuya and the other three had run far enough and finally stopped to take a breath.

"I didn't expect that beast to be able to suddenly improve his strength. The attack just now was as strong as a five-star Dou Wang. Fortunately, he didn't chase me, otherwise I would be in great danger!"

Lin Xiuya said with lingering fear.

"Yes, fortunately Xiao Yuan held back the beast, otherwise we would all be dead here."

Yan Hao nodded when he heard this, and there was also a hint of relief in his eyes for surviving the disaster.

"I think with Xiao Yuan's speed and strength, I'm afraid even Lin Xiuya may not be his opponent in the Power Ranking Competition four months later."

The young man in yellow also sighed.

Han Yue's bright silver hair looked a little messy because she fled in a hurry. Sweat stuck her hair to her forehead. Her slightly furrowed brows clearly showed that she was quite worried about Xiao Yuan's safety at the moment.

After all, it was she who proposed this matter, but Xiao Yuan was left as the last person to leave. If she hadn't been clear in her mind that she couldn't help much if she went back, she would probably have returned long ago.

Holding tightly in her hand the jade bottle that Xiao Yuan had stuffed into her hand, Han Yue's worries grew more and more intense.

After all, it has been quite some time since they rested here. With Xiao Yuan's speed, he should be here by now!
"Strange, the sky in the direction of the valley suddenly became a little gloomy!"

Lin Xiuya was naturally also paying attention to the movements in the direction of the valley. Looking from afar, he found that the weather in the valley where the Snow Demon Ape was located had suddenly become gloomy.

"Yeah, why is it thundering?"

Yan Hao looked over when he heard this and said with some confusion.

Hearing this, Han Yue raised her head and looked at the lightning and thunder in the distance, and suddenly felt a little relieved about Xiao Yuan's safety.

She was very thoughtful and had just noticed that Xiao Yuan's movements seemed to have some traces of thunder attributes. Normally speaking, such fighting skills would be amplified in thunderstorms.

As for the fact that the thunderstorm was caused by Xiao Yuan, they didn't even think about it in that direction.

Because in order to influence the weather, at least it is something that only high-level Dou Zong can do. Some Dou Huang powerhouses can achieve this by relying on the mysteries of martial arts or fighting skills. However, this requires a lot of energy and fighting spirit, which is still far from the Dou Zong powerhouse who can change the sky with just a thought.

Xiao Yuan was able to do this not only by relying on the effect of absorbing energy from heaven and earth that came with his Earth-level fighting skills, but also by relying on his own secret method to increase his fighting spirit. With the strength of a Fighting King and the most critical black magic thunder, he was able to summon this thundercloud.

However, the effect was obviously quite significant, and it directly killed a Snow Demon Sky Ape that was comparable to a five-star Dou King!

According to Xiao Yuan's calculations, if he could do it regardless of the cost, even a Dou Huang expert would be able to fight to the death!
Of course, if he could avoid risking his life, he would naturally not seek death. He deeply understood the truth that if he did not fight desperately in training, he would have to fight desperately in battle.

"Cough cough!"

Xiao Yuan coughed up a mouthful of bright red blood, took out a rejuvenation pill, swallowed it, and began to regulate his breathing.

At this time, he was not worried that any magical beasts would come to attack him. The battle fluctuations just now were enough to scare away all the magical beasts below the fifth level. What's more, the Snow Demon Ape was not someone to be trifled with. There were basically no magical beasts in its territory.

After all, once the news of the Earth Core Tempering Milk is exposed, it will cause countless troubles.

Unfortunately, he deceived the monsters but not the humans, and eventually died at the hands of Xiao Yuan.

Extracting blood is not an easy task, so after Xiao Yuan recovered, he directly put the body of the Snow Demon Ape into his storage ring.

The next step is to collect the Earth Core Tempering Milk!
Xiao Yuan summoned the Purple Cloud Wings and flew into the valley. His soul power surged out like a tide, scanning the entire valley.

The valley was quite spacious, with some white bones scattered around, which looked like they belonged to a monster.

Apparently, not only humans are lusting after this Earth-Tempering Milk, but even some magical beasts also want to snatch it.

But this is very normal, because the marrow-cleansing and bone-refining effect of the Earth Core Tempering Milk is far more attractive to Warcraft than to humans. If Warcraft can get this thing, it will be much easier for them to cultivate into human form in the future.

Even the sixth-ranked magical beasts were envious of such effects. For example, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King from the Magic Beast Mountain Range once wanted to ask Yun Yun for the Transformation Pill. Obviously, he wanted to transform into a human form so that he could reduce the difficulty of advancement during cultivation.

The name that suddenly flashed through his mind suddenly made Xiao Yuan stop flying. He pursed his lips tightly, and a graceful and beautiful face floated up from the depths of his memory.

To be honest, I haven't seen you for a while and I still miss you a little.

However, Xiao Yuan was able to distinguish the importance of things and quickly came to his senses and flew into the cave that had been detected.

The volume of the cave is not small, otherwise it would be difficult to accommodate the Snow Demon Ape. The high cave ceiling is more than ten meters high. In the cave, rocks are scattered and white hair can be seen everywhere. Xiao Yuan walked quickly into the cave. After a moment, he stood in front of the mountain wall at the end with a slight frown.

He did not find any trace of the Earth-Tempering Body Milk.

However, if it cannot be detected by the naked eye, what about the power of the soul?
As his mind moved, the power of his soul surged out, and soon he discovered something abnormal in a corner!

There, there was a clear cavity in the mountain below!
Xiao Yuan's gaze also moved over there and found that the ground there was sunken in a huge area. The sunken area was covered with white hair, and there were many more large footprints around it than anywhere else. At first glance, this seemed to be the resting place of the Snow Demon Ape, and the sunken area seemed to be pressed out by the latter's huge body.

But in fact, there was clearly something else going on underneath! Without much hesitation, Xiao Yuan waved his hand, and the green wind-attributed Dou Qi turned into a whirlwind, drilling fiercely into the ground. Boom!
A large pit was drilled, revealing a dark hole.

Snapped!
Seeing this, Xiao Yuan calmly summoned the Yang Fire of the Yin and Yang dual flames. The warm and soft white flames lingered around his body, instantly brightening up the originally dim cave.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yuan leaped up and jumped down.

After walking for a while, Xiao Yuan finally walked out of the long passage and entered an underground world covered with stalactites. Looking around, milky white stalactites were endless and covered the top of the cave. Pale white light emanated from them, driving away all the darkness here. Stalactites were everywhere, some hanging on the top of the mountain, and some were even hundreds of meters long. At a glance, the mountain dome was covered with huge stalactites, and occasionally drops of white emulsion dripped down, splashing milky white water on the ground.

The underground world is huge, and Xiao Yuan’s soul power cannot cover it entirely, but fortunately, Xiao Yuan has many means!
With the flow of earth-attributed Dou Qi in his body, Xiao Yuan quickly sensed the direction where the power of the earth was stronger, and then he quickly rushed towards that direction.

As for whether he would encounter danger, Xiao Yuan was not worried. Although his combat effectiveness would be somewhat reduced now, the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python was a trump card, which should be enough to deal with unknown crises.

After walking through the stalactite world for nearly ten minutes, Xiao Yuan finally stopped, looked up at the huge stalactite in front of him, and a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.

The stalactite that appeared in front of him was connected to the top of the mountain at one end and hung down directly at the other end. It was over a hundred meters long and as wide as two people could hug together. A pale white light lingered around it, making it look like a crystal pillar. This stalactite was undoubtedly the largest one in the underground world. With such a size, it was like the king among stalactites, accepting the worship of countless stalactites around it.

His eyes gradually moved downwards. Under this stalactite was an extremely large bluestone. More than half of the bluestone was buried underground. At this moment, there was a groove less than half a foot deep on the top of the bluestone. The groove just faced the tip of the stalactite above. In the groove, there was a two-inch deep milky white liquid. Above the milky liquid, there was a faint white mist. The white mist was quite strange. No matter how it floated, it never dissipated. Xiao Yuan took a light breath, and suddenly he had a strange feeling as if all the bones in his body were numb.

After glancing at the milky liquid in the groove, Xiao Yuan quickly regained his composure.

He knew that although the milky liquid in the groove was also the Earth Core Tempering Milk, it was diluted. His goal was the original milk!

Then, there was a shock behind Xiao Yuan, and a pair of purple-black wings popped out, carrying Xiao Yuan upwards.

Flying straight up along the huge vertical stalactite that was more than a hundred meters long, we soon reached the top of the mountain dome. Looking down from here, those stalactites that originally seemed quite huge were now only the size of ants. Looking around, we could see some stalactites that were also hanging in the mountain dome. The faint light brought brightness to the entire underground world.

Xiao Yuan carefully observed the bottom of the stalactite, looked at it carefully for a long time, and used his soul power to detect it many times. Only then did he determine the place to start. Then he suppressed his excitement, took out a piece of excellent quality jade from the ring with trembling hands, and cut a circular incision on the bottom of the stalactite.

"click"

Suddenly, the jade piece in his hand completed the last distance of the circle, and immediately, a piece of stalactite circle fragment fell off from the main body. Xiao Yuan grabbed it quickly and raised his head. A strong light suddenly shot out from the place where the fragment fell off. The dazzling light made him subconsciously cover his eyes with the strange fire.

Then Xiao Yuan was delighted to see that inside the stalactite, there was a ball of emerald-colored viscous liquid suspended. The liquid seemed to have a spirit and was slowly flowing in the stalactite. However, its wandering range was just around the mouth of the circle and never went beyond a single line.

Feeling the huge and pure energy contained in this emerald-colored viscous liquid, which is more than ten times richer than the "Earth Core Tempering Milk" in the bluestone groove below, Xiao Yuan's heart trembled violently.

This is the real Earth-Tempering Body Milk!

As for those below, they are all diluted from the main body and flowed out. Although the effect is not bad, it is obviously not as good as the original pulp.

After using a jade spoon to scoop most of the Earth's Core Tempering Milk into the jade bottle, Xiao Yuan installed the cut jade pieces back. After another burst of strong light, the stalactites returned to their original state.

This is an unwritten rule in the alchemy world. Whenever you encounter natural treasures, you must not cut off their roots. This Earth-Tempering Milk is extremely difficult to form. If all of it is taken away, the stalactites that have taken tens of thousands of years to form will probably gradually collapse. Therefore, it is better to keep some for nurturing.

With the Earth Core Tempering Milk in hand, Xiao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. With the flapping of his wings, his body slowly descended.

Afterwards, Xiao Yuan unceremoniously put all the diluted "Earth Core Tempering Milk" into his bag.

Anyway, the Snow Demon Ape is already dead, so instead of giving these to other magical beasts, it’s better to take them away myself!

And you can also sell some favors and make a lot of money!
Besides, whether it is used as food for the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, or a part of it is given to Xiao Yan to break through to the Dou Ling level, it is a considerable expense. It will not be possible not to get more!
After finishing all this, Xiao Yuan headed back. Unexpectedly, before he had gone far, he met Lin Xiuya who was rushing back.

"Senior Lin Xiuya? Why are you back?"

Xiao Yuan asked with a smile.

"Everyone is worried about you, but they are also afraid that you will cause more trouble. I have recovered a little and can barely protect myself, so I came back to check on the situation. Are you okay?"

Hearing this, Lin Xiuya smiled gently and asked with concern.

"Haha, don't worry, I'm not only fine, I also gained something."

Xiao Yuan smiled and said mysteriously.

"I can see that although your breath has become a little weaker, it seems that your injuries are much lighter than mine. I didn't expect that the freshmen nowadays are so strong!"

Lin Xiuya shook his head helplessly when he heard that. The strength that Xiao Yuan had currently displayed really put him under a lot of pressure. Although they had never had a formal fight, he had actually anticipated the outcome!
The terrifying speed alone was enough to make him feel quite troubled, not to mention the terrifying power that was comparable to that of a Dou Wang-level monster.

This was the first time in all these years that he had seen someone with more powerful strength than Yan Hao, and furthermore, this person's strength seemed to be only that of a great fighting master.

"By the way, we shouldn't stay here for long. Let's retreat first and talk about it after we reunite!"

Lin Xiuya suddenly thought that the Snow Demon Ape might chase them again, and he immediately became serious. He pulled Xiao Yuan and flew towards the hiding place of the others.
