Chapter 593 The Hunt Begins

"Little girl, come back and eat chicken, hahahaha..."

"Brother, this chicken is so delicious!"

The two Shennong Gang disciples tore the pheasant meat into pieces and stuffed them into their mouths, laughing obscenely.

They didn't realize at all that Gan Guanghao and Junior Sister Ge were just looking for an excuse to escape.

Junior Sister Ge followed Gan Guanghao into the woods, and the two of them were less than a minute apart.

"Brother! Brother! Am I smart? Those two idiots from the Shennong Gang are still kept in the dark!"

Junior Sister Ge chased into the woods happily, without any trace of the shame, anger or worry she had just shown.

"Brother!"

She saw Gan Guanghao standing under a tree with his back to her not far away, but ignoring her, and she couldn't help feeling a little strange.

Then, she felt that Gan Guanghao's body was trembling slightly, and her face turned red. She said, "Brother, why don't you go further away when you relieve yourself? Are you teasing me on purpose?"

Having said that, he turned around.

Although the two had already had physical contact, they were not an old married couple after all. It was normal for Junior Sister Ge to feel a little embarrassed when she first saw such a scene.

However, she was completely mistaken.

The reason why Gan Guanghao was standing there trembling was not because he was relieving himself, but because he was ambushed by Chai Xin!

As early as Gan Guanghao moved into the woods, Chai Xin had already taken action.

He ran into the woods for more than ten steps, hid behind a tree, and when Gan Guanghao passed by, he launched a surprise attack.

"Dao Xuan Gong" was activated instantly, and his right hand was placed on Gan Guanghao's shoulder, directly starting to absorb his internal energy.

Although Gan Guanghao is already in his twenties, he has been a disciple of Zuo Zimu since he was young and has been practicing martial arts for more than ten years.

But his own skills are far less than ten years.

Firstly, not everyone has practiced Daoxuan Gong, and not everyone has Chai Xin's qualifications to practice internal skills all the time.

The second, and more important point.

Gan Guanghao's aptitude for martial arts can only be described as average, and he is not very diligent in his daily practice. After ten years of martial arts training, the internal strength he has actually accumulated is only at the level of three or four years.

In fact, his skills are almost at the bottom of the world of heroes, only slightly better than those ordinary members of small sects.

Although Chai Xin had only practiced for one night, he had already perfected the first level of Daoxuan Gong. The internal force in his qi sea was of extremely high quality, and he had a special physique. It was not difficult for him to deal with Gan Guanghao in one move if he launched a sneak attack.

Gan Guanghao was suddenly attacked and was naturally shocked.

But when "Dao Xuan Gong" began to absorb the power in his body, he couldn't even open his mouth to call out. He just felt that his whole body was restrained and his body was shaking slightly uncontrollably.

This can only be blamed on him for being completely unprepared. Otherwise, with Chai Xin's current skills, it would take some effort to defeat him, and at least a dozen moves would be required.

Once the two sides fight, it will inevitably alarm several people outside, and the situation will be very different at that time.

"Brother, are you okay? We need to hurry up and run as far away as possible. We must not let anyone see us again..."

Junior Sister Ge turned her back to Gan Guanghao, picked up a bunch of black hair with her left hand and fumbled with it repeatedly, with an expression of anticipation and slight shyness on her face.

However, she had only said half of her words when she was suddenly moved by a gust of wind from behind.

"boom!"

The heavy palm force hit her back directly, causing her to stagger, but the palm remained close to her body and never let go.

Immediately, a warm current rushed into her body, and she became unable to move.

Junior Sister Ge was filled with fear and astonishment, and didn't understand what was happening.

Her first reaction was that Gan Guanghao would actually attack her, but she soon realized that this man was definitely not her senior brother.

Thinking back to how Gan Guanghao had just stood there motionless and trembling slightly, she already understood something.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

Junior Sister Ge’s skills are even weaker than Gan Guanghao’s, at most only three years’ level.

A few minutes later, she collapsed to the ground.

Chai Xin stepped on her neck without any hesitation, killing her instantly.

In order to keep the news of their elopement secret, this wild couple wanted to kill Duan Yu and him to silence them, which was a way to their own death.

Chai Xin has never been a saint or a holy father. He will not show any mercy to anyone who dares to kill him.

The combined internal strength of these two people is probably less than seven years.

After being refined and purified by Daoxuan Gong, Chai Xin could only truly use it for more than half a year.

However, this short period of less than ten minutes directly saved half a year of hard training, and the speed was already amazing.

With Chai Xin's current strength, even if he faces someone like Gan Guanghao, the battle can be ended in three or five moves at most.

There are two Shennong Gang disciples outside. Even if they fight at the same time, Chai Xin is confident that he can defeat them both within twenty moves.

The disciples of the two sects had just brought Duan Yu and Mu Wanqing up the mountain. They would not be back for a while, so this was the best time to take action.

Chai Xin didn't hesitate at all. He picked up the sword dropped by Junior Sister Ge and rushed out of the forest.

At this time, the two Shennong Gang disciples were still feasting on their food.

Even if they noticed someone rushing out of the woods, they just thought it was Gan Guanghao and the other man returning.

It was not until Chai Xin came close and the two Shennong Gang disciples reacted suddenly under the light of the fire.

"who?"

"What?"

The two men hurriedly dropped the chicken wings and rabbit legs in their hands, stood up and shouted.

Chai Xin didn't say a word. He had already thrown off the scabbard when he picked up the sword. At this time, the sword edge was flashing with a little hot light in the overlapping moonlight and firelight.

"laugh!"

The Lingbo Weibu technique was performed, and the long sword pierced directly into the right chest of one of the Shennong Gang disciples from an incredible and strange angle.

The sword was so agile and sudden that even though the Shennong Gang disciple saw Chai Xin approaching, he was unable to dodge it.

"Brother Chu!"

Another disciple of Shennong Gang was horrified when he saw this. He threw out a foot-long iron pickaxe from his waist and smashed it towards Chai Xin's face.

Chai Xin's feet were as smooth as oil, and his position changed again in an instant. He simply gave up his sword, dodged the pickaxe head and punched the owner of the pickaxe head on the neck.

"boom!"

The owner of the pickaxe was knocked to the ground by an unimaginable force, and his head fell onto the edge of the campfire, and his clothes were immediately ignited.

"Ah! Ah! I'm burning to death!"

The guy who threw the pickaxe no longer cared about anything else. He jumped onto the road and began to roll around, trying to put out the fire.

Chai Xin ignored him and turned around to press his palm on the chest of the guy who was stabbed by the sword. The guy's right chest was pierced and his lungs were seriously injured. He was already having difficulty breathing, his face was flushed, and blood was flowing out of his mouth and nose.

At this moment, Chai Xin slapped him on the chest again, and he immediately started rolling his eyes, breathing in more than out.

Chai Xin hurriedly increased the power of "Dao Xuan Gong" in order to prevent this guy from dying and his internal energy automatically dissipating, making it impossible to absorb it again.

Fortunately, this man finally held on until his internal energy was drained away. He then let out a "huh" sound from his throat, and then his head tilted to the side and he died.

"Your skills are only slightly better than that woman's. You are such a loser."

Chai Xin felt that his internal strength had increased by about four months, and he couldn't help but complain secretly.

At this time, the guy on fire finally put out the flames, but he had no intention of turning back to deal with Chai Xin. He turned around and ran up the mountain.

While running, he screamed: "Enemy attack! Help!"

It’s a pity that this place is too far away from the mountain. Even in the quiet night, his shouts cannot be heard up there.

Ultimately it was because the Shennong Gang and the Wuliang Sword Sect were not cautious enough, otherwise if they had arranged a few more sentry points halfway up the mountain, the situation would naturally be different.

However, in the eyes of both factions, even if an enemy attacked, with the eight disciples joining forces and the four members of the Shennong Gang carrying various poisons, they would have enough time to delay some time and light a lot of beacons to call for help.

Not far from the campfire, there was an even larger pile of firewood, which was used for signaling.

Unfortunately, the development of events was completely beyond their expectations.

Duan Yu and his companions led half of the eight disciples on duty away, and two of the remaining four planned to flee privately...

All I can say is that the Shennong Gang and the Wuliang Sword Sect really have bad luck.

Looking at the Shennong Gang disciple who was staggering away, Chai Xin did not rush to chase him, but began to touch the corpse.

After searching a bunch of bottles and jars from the dead Shennong Gang disciples, he jumped up and chased after them.

The guy who was fleeing was hit by a palm from Chai Xin, and a large area of ​​his skin was burned by the fire, so he couldn't run fast at all.

"Mercy! Mercy, please! You can take whatever you want, but please spare my life!"

Seeing that Chai Xin was approaching him, he could only kneel down and beg for mercy.

Chai Xin glanced at him and said indifferently: "I can spare your life, but I will cripple your martial arts to prevent you from aiding the tyrant in his evil deeds."

As he spoke, he grabbed the man's neck with one hand and pressed his other hand between his chest and abdomen.

The man was seriously injured and had little strength to resist. In addition, the Daoxuan Gong was activated, and he completely lost the ability to move.

After a while, all his strength was sucked away.

"The worst one so far has less than three years of training..."

Chai Xin threw the man to the ground with a helpless look on his face. These guys were indeed weak.

But then again, if the target is too strong, he really won't be able to do anything with his current means.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the skills of four people increased his internal strength by more than a year.

"If this continues, these more than one hundred inferior martial artists on Wuliang Mountain should be able to make my skills reach more than forty years. By then, with the characteristics of Daoxuan Gong, I am afraid that if I meet those martial arts masters who have sixty or seventy years of skills, I will also be able to fight."

Chai Xin was calculating secretly.

"Daoxuan Gong" absorbs internal energy like a snowball, and it grows faster and faster as time goes by.

After all, as Chai Xin's strength continues to grow, he will be able to deal with more powerful opponents.

To deal with a top master who has seventy years of skills is equivalent to the skills that twenty or so lower-level warriors can bring to him.

"However, as the level of Daoxuan Gong increases, relying on the internal strength of these inferior warriors to increase the effect will be minimal."

Chai Xin naturally had an in-depth understanding of the martial arts he created.

The first level of Daoxuan Gong can absorb low-level martial artists with a skill level of less than [five years] to improve their skills.

The second level requires absorbing the skills of the lowest-level upper-class warriors who have practiced for more than [five years] in order to improve their skills.

The third level requires the absorption of third-rate beginner warriors with more than [ten years] of skills.

The fourth level requires the recruitment of third-rate upper-class warriors with more than [fifteen years] of skills.

The fifth level requires the absorption of a second-rate junior master with more than [twenty years] of skills.

The sixth level requires the absorption of second-rate top masters with more than [twenty-five years] of skills.

The seventh level requires the absorption of first-rate masters with more than [30 years] of skills.

The eighth level requires the absorption of top-notch masters with more than [forty years] of skills.

The ninth level requires the absorption of a top master with more than fifty years of skills.

If after practicing Daoxuan Gong to the second level, one tries to absorb the internal energy of a martial artist with less than five years of skill, the gain will become negligible, probably less than one percent.

If you cultivate to the third level, the effect will continue to decrease...

Therefore, it would be very difficult to rely on a large number of inferior warriors to steadily improve internal strength.

By the time Chai Xin's Daoxuan Gong had been practiced to the fifth and sixth levels, even if he absorbed the energy of ten thousand lowest-level warriors, his internal strength would only increase for less than a month.

The input and return are totally disproportionate.

And by then, Chai Xin will surely make the whole world his enemy...

Although he is not afraid of having enemies all over the world, who would be willing to choose such an incredibly inefficient method?
Therefore, choosing a master of the corresponding level of Daoxuan Gong to absorb is the fastest and most reliable way to make progress.

Of course, the so-called "first-rate, second-rate" and other divisions mentioned above are not the realm divisions of the warriors in the world of heroes, but are purely made up by Chai Xin himself.

In fact, like most martial arts novels, there is no so-called realm division in the world of heroes.

Although there are terms such as "first-rate and second-rate" in the world of heroes, these are ranked based on actual combat performance and have no direct relationship to the depth of their skills.

Simply put, if a guy with twenty years of experience can defeat a master with thirty years of experience, everyone will naturally recognize him as a first-rate master.

If you are a monster with a hundred years of skills, but have never shown it to the outside world, then naturally there will be no such person as you in the world, let alone first-rate or second-rate.

"I'll give you a chance to live. From now on, don't come back to Shennong Gang, and don't do evil again. Otherwise, if I find out, I will kill you!"

Chai Xin also looted all kinds of bottles and jars from the Shennong Gang disciple, but he did not go back on his promise.

"Thank you for sparing my life, sir. From now on, I will behave myself and return to my hometown to be a farmer. I will never dare to set foot in the martial arts world again."

The disciples of the Shennong Gang felt weak all over, but they still forced themselves to kowtow to Chai Xin.

Chai Xin ignored him and went straight up the mountain.

"With these bottles and cans, the next plan should be easier to implement."

With the help of moonlight, Chai Xin pondered over the medicine bottle he had searched from the disciples of Shennong Gang on the mountain path.

There are labels on the medicine bottles, such as "Five Poison Pills" and "Ecstasy Powder", which are obviously the names of poisons.

Of course, there are also some medicines for treating internal and external injuries.
