Qin Ming hid expressionlessly, not in a hurry to show up, and carefully observed the battle situation. He has never dealt with mercenaries before, but he knows very well that these people are ruthless people who lick blood at the edge of their swords. It is a trivial matter not to be grateful for help. What if they are cheated? There will be no chance to regret it then.
The fierce battle is getting more and more intense, and the fighting is getting more and more dangerous. The saber-toothed beast is covered in wounds and has gone crazy. Now the five mercenaries can't retreat even if they want to.
Qin Ming suddenly noticed that there was a cave not far away. There seemed to be some kind of treasure inside, exuding a strong aura of life. He practices Shengshengjue and is very sensitive to the energy of life.
The battle seemed to extend from there.
"Ah!" The man in black was suddenly knocked away by the sharp claws of the saber-toothed beast. His back was bloody and bloody, and three shocking wounds were torn out.
"Ouch!" The saber-toothed beast roared loudly, shaking the dense forest and deafening. The whole body was boiling with turbulent black energy, and all the four mercenaries who were about to pounce were thrown away. It pounced towards the man in black, thick and powerful The claws slapped the ground, gravel splashed, the ground shook, and it was brutal and brutal.
"No!" the four mercenaries screamed.
"Friend! Come and help me, I will be grateful! Hurry!" The man in black struggled to get up, ignoring the severe pain, forcibly raised his breath, and rushed towards the saber-toothed beast with a heavy sword.
"Ouch!" The saber-toothed beast rushed over, its huge body stood upright, the black wind was fierce all over its body, and its thick sharp claws slapped the man in black hard.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" the four mercenaries screamed to save you. You can't resist the saber-toothed beast now.
"Wow!" The man in black had a ferocious look on his face. He stamped on the ground violently, stopped his steps and at the same time spun his whole body on the spot. He waved his sword wildly and flew up into the air.
At the critical moment, on the line between life and death, Qin Ming suddenly arrived and rushed directly towards the saber-toothed beast. The muscles of the whole body are tense, hot power is stirring in every cell, and the ultimate strength is gathered in the right arm and right arm.
"King Kong shakes the mountain!"
Qin Ming shouted low, and half of his body slammed into the belly of the saber-toothed beast, releasing his ultimate power.
His full-strength blow weighed at least 700 kilograms, and the explosive power of King Kong's mountain-shaking force was three times as much.
Bang! Click!
The saber-toothed beast felt as if it was struck by lightning. Its majestic body lost its balance on the spot, and several ribs were broken in its abdomen.
At the same time, the man in black seized the opportunity and slashed with his heavy sword, cutting off its sharp claws.
"Follow me!" Qin Ming held back his energy and blood and followed closely. Before the saber-toothed beast landed, the Dayan Ancient Sword was in his hand. He lifted the sword into the sky and stabbed its throat. There happened to be a way there. A deep wound. With a puff sound, the Dayan Ancient Sword accurately penetrated the wound. As Qin Ming's heavy sword slashed, the wound expanded to half a meter long on the spot.
"Okay!" The man in black was ecstatic, and he attacked again with his heavy sword, hitting the saber-toothed beast's head hard.
"Roar!" The saber-toothed beast whined in pain, and a terrifying wave of black energy arose all over its body again. The wind was strong and the air waves were turbulent, forcing Qin Ming and the man in black to be pushed back. However, its serious injuries finally suppressed its anger, stopped entangled, and prepared to escape.
"Where to go?" The man in black and the four mercenaries all surrounded him and attacked with all his strength with the last of his strength.
After a while, the saber-toothed beast howled, its huge body fell into a pool of blood, and there was no movement.
The five people were covered in injuries and were panting violently. The female mercenary seemed to be unable to stand firmly, leaning against the tree trunk with her head lowered.
"Friend! Thanks!" The man in black calmed down for a while and took the initiative to thank Qin Ming. Although Qin Ming only took two shots, he knew the timing very well and turned the situation around with two assists.
"You're welcome. What's inside?" Qin Ming pointed to the cave.
"Huh?" The man in black's eyes changed slightly. Unexpectedly, Qin Ming noticed the situation in the cave. I originally wanted to give Qin Ming some money and send him away.
The other four mercenaries slowly raised their heads and looked at Qin Ming, their tired eyes slowly becoming wary.
"Don't be nervous, I won't take advantage of you. No matter what's in it, I want a fifth."
"in… "
"I'll go in and see for myself."
"There's a thousand-year-old pine moss inside!" The man in black didn't know Qin Ming's strength and identity, but judging from the explosive power of knocking back the saber-toothed beast with one blow, he must be very strong and a ruthless person. His hands The sword inside doesn't look ordinary.
The five of them are seriously injured now. If they fall out, it is really uncertain who will live and who will die.
"Introduction?" Qin Ming had never heard of it.
The man in black pointed to the short mountain in front of him: "This short mountain is actually the roots of a thousand-year-old tree. The trunk is gone, and the old roots are left buried in the short mountain. There is a kind of spiritual treasure growing on the roots of the tree, called Pine moss is a moss formed by absorbing the life essence of thousand-year-old trees. It has a strong healing effect and should be at the top of the mid-grade spiritual essence."
They have been observing here for a long time and can determine the situation inside. There used to be five saber-toothed beasts guarding the cave. For more than a month, they lured them outside to hunt them one by one. I thought that there was only one left that could be easily dealt with, but I didn't expect that this saber-toothed beast was much stronger than the others.
"I only want one-fifth." Qin Ming walked into the cave.
The five mercenaries walked in immediately. The air inside was very fresh, and it was refreshing to take a deep breath. The short mountain is indeed the roots of an ancient tree. All kinds of old rhizomes are intertwined and densely packed. In the innermost part of the cave, where a few old roots are entangled, there is a palm-sized moss growing. The rich life energy comes from it. It emanates from there.
Qin Ming didn't take more, only one-fifth of the top.
The man in black reminded: "Don't eat too much, eat a little a day, and refining it completely before eating, otherwise it will turn your body into wood and a tree will grow from it. I'm not making this up. This kind of thing happens Pass."
"Thanks for the reminder. Farewell."
"Wait a minute, friend, may I ask your name?"
"Qin Ming."
"Are you on your own? The forest is dangerous. Are you interested in joining us?"
"Thank you for your kindness, I still have things to deal with."
"You are not a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, are you?" A mercenary suddenly thought of something. He met a group of mercenaries the day before yesterday and reminded them that the disciples of the Qingyun Sect will go to this mountainous area to collect medicine in the near future, so they should try to avoid it and avoid getting into trouble. .
Qin Ming nodded and left.
The man in black completely refused to regain the attention of Songmo, and he really didn't dare to offend the Qingyun Sect. Judging from the strength of this person, he must be a top disciple. Maybe there are other disciples nearby collecting herbs.
Thinking of this, they left in a hurry.
They don't dare to rob Qin Ming anymore, but don't wait until Qin Ming calls someone back to rob them.
Thousand-year-old pine moss, a rare treasure, even the disciples of Qingyun Sect will be jealous of it.
As the sky grew dark, Qin Ming found a place to hide, took out the thousand-year-old pine moss from the bag, and looked at it carefully. It is no different from ordinary moss, but you can feel the rich life energy and cool fragrance inside.
This thousand-year-old spiritual creature should not only have the effect of recuperating injuries, but may also have many magical medicinal effects.
"I hope you won't disappoint me." Qin Ming urgently needs to consolidate the fourth level of Lingwu, and this is just an opportunity.
Carefully cut off small pieces, put them in your mouth, and chew slowly. A strong coolness overflowed your mouth, spread throughout your body, and penetrated into your internal organs, muscles, and bones.
Will it turn into wood if you eat too much? Don't be afraid! I have a life-and-death decision!
"The yin and yang are connected, the essence travels through the body, and life and anger change."
"Wear nine shoes on one, three on the left and seven on the right, two and four are shoulders, six and eight are feet, and five are among them. The yang is in the four uprights, the yin is in the four corners, and the middle five is in the middle, mediating the yin and yang. The upper part corresponds to the Big Dipper, and the lower part controls the eight directions."
Qin Ming silently recited the second section of the Sheng Sheng Jue formula to refine the hard-earned thousand-year-old moss. This would not only avoid wood transformation, but should also be more effective than direct absorption. Sure enough, these scattered streams of life were gradually controlled, and began to circulate throughout the body following Qin Ming's guidance, rapidly refining, nourishing the organs of the body, as if every cell was exuding vitality.
A small piece of moss was quickly refined, and Qin Ming simply swallowed the rest and used Sheng Sheng Jue to guide the separation.
Unconsciously, Qin Ming's skin began to ooze black impurities, more and more, and soon it spread all over his body, like black mucus, but with a hint of dark red.
Instead of being surprised, Qin Ming was secretly surprised.
I remember that when I first practiced Shengshengjue, my body had this kind of situation. It was like it was cutting off the hair and washing the marrow, and reborn. Every time after that, the body will have a similar situation, and the body will continue to change. Qin Ming's ability to have such tyrannical strength actually has a lot to do with the cleansing of the marrow of Shengshengjue. Otherwise, it is impossible to increase the explosive power to six to seven hundred kilograms just by training, let alone the backlash of three times the explosion of King Kong Jin.
It's just that the further you go, the less black mucus appears. After the first period of practice was completed, this situation never happened again.
Unexpectedly, using the second section of the Shengshengjue guide today produced a similar effect. The dark red color in the impurities indicates a deeper marrow cleansing effect.
In the early morning of the next day, Qin Ming felt refreshed and walked out of the cave where he was hiding with a smile on his face. His fatigue and injuries were gone. His consciousness seemed to be much more sensitive. His whole body was indescribably light. He clenched his fists hard and was perfect. The lines of muscles covered his arms, as if he was stronger.
I don’t know whether it’s the thousand-year-old moss that has this effect, or whether it’s because of the cooperation of life and death, but the harvest is unexpectedly wonderful.
Qin Ming went to the nearby small lake to clean up, changed his clothes, and went deep into the forest again, looking for Zhao Min.
From Zhao Min's plan to kill herself during the medicine collection operation, it is not difficult to see that this woman has a very vicious heart. She did not originally have such deep hatred, but she insisted on taking human lives. If she is not dealt with this time, there will be endless troubles after she returns to Qingyun Sect.
