Chapter 82 Heading Deep into the Demonic Wind Forest When Yang Shi saw the familiar golden light, he knew that it was his ancestor performing magical operations. He opened his body to receive the essence of the Earth Bear. The first thing I felt was an extremely huge amount of energy and blood, an effect more powerful than the first-grade elixir [Vajra Indestructible Pill] exploding in my body. My energy and blood boiled, and my physical strength increased again! The muscles and bones expanded slightly again. Yang Shi has reached a height of 1 meters! Then some earth spirit energy penetrated into his skin, forming a layer of keratin membrane, making the skin tougher and stronger. [Yang Shi absorbed the essence of the monster 'Earth Violent Bear', his Qi and blood increased, and his spiritual power increased. Failed, and obtained the talent 'Thin Skin (Ordinary Level).'] [Thin Skin (Ordinary): A weakened version of the violent bear race's talent. The skin's toughness is slightly increased, which can offset some physical and magical damage.] Yang Shi absorbed some of the Earth Bear's talents, and his ability to withstand attacks became stronger. In addition, his energy and blood increased a lot, and his strength improved significantly. "God damn thin skin!" "It's a pity that this essence of spiritual power is wasted. Yang Shi is not a cultivator." "But if I add spiritual power, can I still absorb this talent?"

Yang Keun-suk is not quite sure how to play this new Fukuzawa, so he needs to try it a few more times to find out. Yang Shi clenched his fists, feeling the greater power flowing through his body and the growing inner energy, his face filled with joy. "I'm stronger again!" "Thank you, old ancestor, for the miracle!" Jiang Xiaobai and Hu Zi also bowed: "Thank you, ancestor." Everyone in the Yang family knows one thing clearly: all of their current achievements were bestowed by their ancestors. Without the ancestors, there would be no Yang family today. Respect for ancestors is engraved in everyone's bones. Yang Keun Suk nodded slightly. Now the Yang family was united, so he had less to worry about. Yesterday, he took a break from his busy schedule to watch a Korean chaebol drama, and the infighting in the family gave him a headache. It would be bad if the Yang family became stronger and became like that in the future. Therefore, he had to make sure that the Yang family always maintained their current mental state. At least now Yang Shi's education was very successful, and Yang Fuji obeyed the ancestor's orders very well, just like Yang Shi. Even the naughty Yang Fushuo immediately became quiet and stopped moving when he saw the golden words appear in the sky. He waited quietly for his father and brother to finish dealing with the matter before he dared to speak. "I want to test my current strength." Yang Shi ran out, his speed obviously increased. After a while, he caught a long-horned deer in the fetal period with his bare hands. "My body has been strengthened by about 20%, and my defense has been significantly enhanced. The earth blade of the earth deer hitting me doesn't hurt at all. I feel as if I have absorbed the power of the bear." "The innate master is not the end of martial arts. My body has not yet reached its physical limit." Hu Zi took a bone-strengthening and muscle-regenerating pill and recovered from his injuries. He exclaimed: "Brother Shi, you have the strength of a bear now!" Hu Zi was so envious that he looked up at the sky and said, "Ancestor, my last name is Yang too. Please give me some strength~" "Huzi, don't talk nonsense. If the ancestor gives us a reward, we should accept it. If he doesn't give us a reward, we can't ask for it." Yang Shi scolded Hu Zi.

Hu Zi scratched his head embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, ancestor, I won't dare to do it again in the future" Looking at Hu Zi's dazed look, Yang Keun Suk chuckled. Hu Zi's loyalty is beyond doubt, and he has no relatives or friends. The Yang family is his family, and they are absolutely his own people. Now he has reached the level of a master of innateness and is one of the main fighting forces at present. With both merits and hard work over the years, appropriate rewards are due. He appeared in a miracle. "When you kill another powerful monster, I will reward you." When Hu Zi saw the words that appeared specially for him, he was overjoyed and kowtowed several times excitedly. "Thank you, ancestor! Thank you, ancestor! Yang Hu will do his best to protect our Yang family!" Just 30 incense sticks, it's worth it. In addition, the current strength of this Earth Deer at the fifth level of fetal breathing is average and it does not have any special talents. Yang Genshuo does not intend to waste precious incense to absorb its essence. It is best to leave it to more powerful monsters. "It has to be at least a Qi Refining Stage monster to be worth my spending 30 incense sticks, right?" In the past two years, because Yang Fu and Yang Fushuo practiced at the same time, Yang Genshuo bestowed [Blessing: Gathering Spirits] on the two children many times, doubling the consumption. This is also one of the reasons why they made rapid progress. After Yang Fushuo reached a new stage of practice, since it was not his first time, he was only given 10 incense points for each promotion, unlike Yang Fu who could earn as much as he did. Including the 150 incense sticks he had just obtained from killing the Qi Refining monster, Yang Genshuo's total incense sticks are only 490. "Leave 200 incense sticks for the next child, and only 290 incense sticks can be used, which is still very tight." "Recently, reduce the frequency of [Blessings: Gathering Spirits] a little, and leave more for [Blessings: Absorbing]. If Yang Shi kills the monsters and drags them back for Yang Fu to absorb, perhaps the increased spiritual power will not be worse than Gathering Spirits?" While Yang Genshuo was calculating carefully, Yang Shi and Hu Zi started chatting. "How did it attract the attention of this Earth-Violating Bear? We hardly ever see Qi Refining Stage monsters here." This is considered a safe area on the outskirts of the Demon Wind Forest. It is mostly inhabited by herbivorous monsters that are not very aggressive, otherwise these black ghosts would not have been able to survive here for so long. If a ground-violating bear comes, the entire tribe will be wiped out. Hu Zi frowned, "This isn't the first Qi Refining Stage monster I've encountered. Something seems to have happened in the Monster Wind Forest recently. Many monsters have escaped from it. This thing targeted me when I was hunting. Fortunately, it's not too far from home, otherwise I would have wasted a talisman from my senior sister." Hu Zi naturally had protective talismans on him. The senior sister had given him a lot of them over the years. Yang Shi also gave a few to each member of the family to deal with some special situations. "Well, the talisman must be carried close to you. If you encounter an enemy that you cannot defeat, you must be willing to throw the talisman away. This is the key to our survival as martial artists. Have you thrown the attack talisman?" "Well, I just used a magic talisman that Xiaofu drew." "Ridiculous! Have you ever seen a martial artist fighting without using talismans? Relying purely on the body is not the right way! I punish you to go to Xiaofu to get 10 talismans, and use them all today." "Oh" Hu Zi sighed secretly, fortunately he had Brother Shi's teaching, otherwise he would have thought that a martial artist had to rely on his own body to defeat the enemy. Wu Xiulu almost went astray! It was not difficult for Yang Fu to make a first-grade talisman. Yang Shi would buy him a lot of talisman paper every year, so he could use it as he pleased. Relying on Yang Fu, the Yang family has achieved the freedom of first-grade talismans.

It’s just that Yang Fu knows too few spells, and the Yang family doesn’t have any other spells to learn. "Senior Sister Chu, why don't you come to Qingshi County? You said you would teach my son some magic in person." Yang Shi hasn't seen Chu Qiao when he went to Xuanshi Sect recently. No one knows where he has been. He hasn't added any new magic to his family in the past few years. He originally planned to let Yang Fu follow him to become a disciple of Xuanshi Sect and learn immortal arts, but was rejected by Yang Genshuo. Yang Fu's talent and practice are extremely special, so he is suitable for keeping a low profile. He must not be exposed in advance. Otherwise, if he has such a high talent and is attacked by others before he can practice, it will be a huge loss for the Yang family! He wants to become the strongest man in the Foundation Establishment Stage! When you reach the foundation-building stage, you can easily set half a county on fire with a fireball. Moreover, if Yang Fu wanted to make a second-grade talisman, he would have to at least reach the Qi Refining stage, which would take several years. When the time comes, just find a way to let him learn the [Golden Spirit Sword Technique], and use it with American Iai to sweep away enemies at the fifth level of Qi training. "Since there have been strange monsters appearing recently, we should patrol more frequently to prevent them from attacking our manor." Yang Shi didn't take it too seriously. After all, it was normal for monsters to behave in some strange ways. It’s possible that this Earth-Violent Bear was driven out by some big monster. "Brother Husband, what should we do with the bear's body?" Most of the essence of the Earth Storm Bear was absorbed by Yang Shi. Now the corpse did not have much spiritual power left, and it looked like it had lost a lot of weight, as if it had lost the air. "This fur is very tough. If it is made into leather armor, it can at least be used as a low-grade defensive magic weapon. As for the meat, share it with the black ghosts and eat it together." Ow~~~ The Iron-Backed Wolf squatted beside Hu Zi, drooling and wagging its tail wildly. "What's yours is yours, don't worry." The Iron-Backed Gray Wolf followed Hu Zi in the Demon Wind Forest and had been eating and drinking delicious food. It had grown several times stronger and looked as big as a tiger. When Hu Zi was free, he would take Yang Fu and Yang Fushuo to ride the Gray Wolf for a walk. "A fourth-level Qi training wolf? Half mount, half combatant. Its rank is not as high as the Earth Storm Bear, and its combat power is also not as high as the Earth Storm Bear." Yang Keun-suk looked at Canglang's data and shook his head. After all, it is a low-level spiritual beast. For spiritual beasts, rank is very important. Although the shadow bat, which hides during the day and comes out at night, is only at the tenth level of fetal breathing, it is a high-level spiritual beast. At night, it can run away like a dog for the wolf, which is at the fourth level of Qi training. Moreover, the wolf is afraid of fire and howls when it is burned by it. "It would be great if my Yang family had someone who could tame beasts. With the Monster Wind Forest at our backs, wouldn't it be wonderful if we could tame the beasts and turn them into spirit beasts to guard our home?" Taming a high-level monster is not something that can be done by simply feeding it dozens of dragon fruits or performing CPR a few times; it requires special monster taming spells. Next, the Yang family entered the rhythm of the previous two years. With sufficient resources, the family began to grow rapidly. Yang Shi and Hu Zi were constantly searching for some monsters to kill in the Demon Wind Forest. Only a month had passed, and no Qi Refining Stage Monster had been hunted in the periphery. The previous Qi Refining Stage Monster riots seemed to be just occasional disturbances. "This won't work. Our ancestors said that only the Qi Refining Stage monsters can use their magic to strengthen us. Instead of wasting time on the periphery, why don't we go deep into the Monster Wind Forest and take a look?"
