Nests and young animals

  The next day, Yun Xin and the Zhu sisters brought back the demon-hog beast skin and earth arrow law seal, as well as various raw materials obtained from hunting demon mice and demon snakes over the past dozen or so days. They returned to Tianyun Xianyuan City, sold them for spirit stones, and purchased various spiritual elixirs and other necessities for cultivation. Then they brought everything back to Luori Yuan.

  Ye Chen bid farewell to the monks in the camp and returned to the Boar Forest, continuing his cultivation of magic.

  He is currently mainly cultivating his yuan god and cultivating primary magic, using these two channels to enhance his own strength.

  Ye Chen is now in the second layer of the Qi Refining stage, mastering three minor spells: 'Fireball', 'Wind Control' and 'Stone Skin'. He already has some real power, but it's still far from enough. Not to mention dealing with Guoshi Zhengyuan, a strong enemy at the eighth layer of the Qi Refining stage. Even going to challenge the Demon-Suppressing Tower in Xiancheng is not yet qualified.

  As for hunting and killing demonic boars, it was just something he did in his spare time while cultivating.

  "'Stone Skin Technique' has been cultivated to completion, next cultivate 'Wind Blade' and 'Entwining' two small technique seals. Can increase not a small amount of strength!"

  Ye Chen was thinking in her heart.

  The seals of these two spells have been absorbed into the yuan soul.

  Ye Chen raised his right hand's index and middle fingers, activating the Wind Blade Technique seal. In an instant, a faint, several-inch-long small wind blade appeared above his fingertips.

  Ye Chen could clearly feel that this wind blade was light and sharp, completely different from the scorching heat of the fireball.

  Ye Chen pointed with one finger.

  A small gust of wind shot out and drew a faint light in mid-air.

  Hmph!

  The wind blade struck a tree ten zhang away, cutting out a small slit about an inch long.

  "'Wind Blade' is a single-target speed attack spell! The power of Wind Blade is not great, not as powerful as the explosive force of Fireball, but the speed at which Wind Blade attacks its target is extremely fast, far surpassing that of Fireball."

  Ye Chen muttered to herself.

  Ye Chen then brought out a green, tendril-like air swirl and attempted to use the binding spell, which was used to bind living creatures, restricting their movement.

  "Entangle", binding spell.

  Ye Chen was amazed at the effect of this spell.

  He even personally experienced it, and even if the opponent has defensive measures such as stone skin or golden bell cover, the entwining spell can still take effect. To break free from the entwinement, one can only rely on brute force to directly tear apart the vines of the entwining spell.

  Next, Ye Chen practiced wind blade and entwining spells while hunting and killing demonic boars in the jungle. He used various spells to deal with the demonic boars, tempering his spell usage.

  Ye Chen felt uncomfortable because he often met Wu Rong and Yuan Hong in the woods, their faces didn't look good, and they would occasionally make a few sarcastic remarks.

  Ye Chen was too lazy to bother with the two of them, he knew that these two young masters from the Xian City cultivation families were troublemakers who could stir up trouble even when there wasn't any, so it was better to avoid them if possible and not get entangled.

  At dawn, Ye Chen carefully made his way through the forest, braving the wind.

  After learning the basics of 'Wind Blade' and 'Entanglement', he was even more powerful. Although it wasn't fully refined, in these few days, he had already hunted down several adult demonic boars in this area of the forest.

  "Hmm!"

  In front of the jungle, a faint and sharp cry of a wild boar was heard, but the voice was delicate.

  "It doesn't sound like a mature hedgehog's low growl! How can it be so tender?"

  Ye Chen pushed aside the tangled grass in front of him, puzzled. Under a large tree, there was a nearly one-meter-deep hole, with dry grass scattered inside, forming a nest. A pale yellow wild boar cub lay in the nest, its soft bristles all over its body, rummaging through the dry grass and oinking.

  "Is this a warthog lair? A young one?"

  Ye Chen suddenly showed a look of surprise.

  "A young, rare, and valuable piglet can be sold for nearly a hundred spirit stones in the Immortal City! Even if I don't sell it, keeping it as my own spiritual beast isn't bad either. Although the pig is not suitable to be ridden, it's still quite good in battle."

  Ye Chen was just about to go over and pick up the cubs in the nest when he suddenly felt a sense of alertness, and a strong sense of danger emerged.

  Whoosh!

  The piercingly sharp wind blade sound tore through the air.

  "Wind Blade!"

  Ye Chen's eyes turned cold, his muscles tensed instantly, and the hairs on his body stood up. His left foot stomped heavily on the trunk of a nearby tree, and in an instant, he rebounded backwards, dodging the incoming wind blade by flashing to the side.

  "Hmph!"

  The wind blade's speed was too fast, Ye Chen dodged at full speed, but still couldn't avoid it.

  This gust of wind cut through Ye Chen's thigh and then hit the tree, cutting out a smooth mouthful on the trunk. On Ye Chen's thigh, where the gust of wind had cut, a small piece of stone skin had already cracked open.

  "Who!"

  Ye Chenfei fell to the ground, sprang up with a flip, suddenly turned his head, eyes wide with anger, and stared in the direction of the incoming wind blade. If it weren't for the stone skin blocking it, this wind blade would have been enough to inflict serious injury on him.

  "It's me! This is just a little lesson for you!"

  Yuan Hong said loudly, and a figure emerged from a clump of grass more than ten feet away. The distance was some far, he didn't see clearly whether Ye Chen's leg was injured or not.

  At the same time, Wu Rong emerged from another clump of grass, controlling a fireball in his hand, and said with great satisfaction, "This lair of the demonic boar, we discovered it early on. This young beast is ours! You can get out of here!"

  The two of them, separated by several zhang, had formed a pincer movement against Ye Chen in the midst of nothingness. No matter who Ye Chen wanted to deal with, he would immediately be attacked by the other person's magic.

  Ye Chen's face suddenly darkened when he saw Yuan Hong and Wu Rong.

  He has been hunting and clearing out the demonic boars in this small forest for days. Wu Rong and Yuan Hong, on the other hand, were active in another nearby forest. They suddenly appeared in this small area, snatching the young demonic boars from their nests, which was clearly robbery!

  "If I must take this young beast away!"

  Ye Chen's anger was suppressed, and he calmed down.

  "Not going?"

  "Huh? Are you still thinking of taking on both of us by yourself?"

  "We are both second-layer cultivators of the Refining Qi stage, one cultivating wind and the other fire. It's a trivial matter for us to join forces and take care of you! You're just an ordinary civilian cultivator, how dare you be so arrogant as to think you can handle both of us at the same time?"

  Yuan Hong and Wu Rong exchanged a glance, as if they had heard a huge joke, and burst into loud laughter.

  "Get your acts together, you two! Is it that hard?!"

  Ye Chen's expression turned cold and stern, he stopped talking, his foot suddenly stomped on the ground, and he rapidly charged towards Wu Rong on the right side.

  He has endured for a long time and can no longer endure. Just now, if he hadn't been strong enough, he would have been seriously injured and would have had to spend one or two months recovering in Xian City. If they don't teach the two of them a lesson, they will only become more arrogant!

  Break the two men's combo and hit Wu Rong first.

  "Wow, you really dare to hit me! Hit then hit, I'm not afraid of you!!"

  Wu Rong's face showed a look of surprise, and he let out a loud roar. He immediately threw the palm-sized fireball in his hand at Ye Chen, who was rushing towards him, attempting to block his approach.

  Ye Chen suddenly accelerated, just as he was about to collide with Wu Rong's fireball. His body shape abruptly increased in speed by nearly a fold, and with a strange flash, he narrowly avoided the incoming fireball by a hair's breadth, throwing it behind him.

  At the same time, Ye Chen's hands conjured up an even larger fireball and shot it at Wu Rong.
