And Xue Jing...
“Swish, swish, swish, swish!!”
The nine-foot-long spear gleamed with a cold light, and it swung out like a dragon, dancing wildly, instantly poking ten holes in the alloy fist dummy in front of it, each of which was a fatal point on the human body.
"I reached the 'Ten Stitches and One Hundred Threads' stage on the second day... The progress is pretty good, and it's within expectations."
Xue Jing took back the spear in his hand, danced with it, and whispered to himself.
"But it still feels a bit slow. If I continue like this, it will take me ten days or half a month to achieve 'One Hundred Needles and One Thousand Threads', right?"
Today and tomorrow are the post-match rest time. The round of 16 will start the day after tomorrow, followed by another three days of rest and then the quarter-finals.
And he is likely to run into Zhou Yinglin in the first round of the quarterfinals.
In other words, at the earliest, he would start fighting with Zhou Yinglin in five days.
"Five days is not enough. I'm afraid I won't be able to defeat him in the realm of perfection..."
Xue Jing touched his chin.
"Forget it, we'll talk about it later, just practice first."
"Maybe... there's no need to use realm crushing. There's a more pretentious way to play."
Xue Jing raised the nine-foot-long spear in his hand and stabbed it continuously into the air, stirring up turbulent air currents and turning it into a giant snake dancing wildly.
As he absorbed seamless techniques and knowledge like a sponge, his knowledge of martial arts and combat skills also increased rapidly, and he made great progress.
The overall martial arts strength is also constantly increasing.
Although many of his panel skills were stuck at the sublimation stage, his speed of improvement was still overwhelming compared to other martial artists.
…
At noon, Xue Jing was having lunch with Ning Fengwan.
Today was a rare day, and he did not go to the cafeteria of the Zhige Base to eat. Instead, he prepared a lot of ingredients and cooked a meal in the kitchen of the villa after a long time.
Ning Fengwan was so happy that she could eat Xue Jing's drugged food again. She was eating her meal in silence, so busy that she could not utter a word.
But not long after they started eating, the doorbell rang.
In an instant, Ning Fengwan heard the doorbell ring and her heart skipped a beat, realizing that something was wrong.
There was a faint glow of platinum, and she immediately transformed into cat form.
Turning around, sure enough, Ning Yuantai was touching the back of his head, and walked in impatiently, and went to the kitchen to take out a set of bowls and chopsticks.
The corner of Maomao's mouth twitched, and the snake-killing elite soldier ejected uncontrollably.
She looked at the table piled high with dishes, but she didn't feel safe at all.
She knew her appetite for martial artists very well...
"You're right, I came at the perfect time. What a coincidence! It's time for dinner."
Ning Yuantai came to the table and quickly picked up a large piece of fried meatball. He swallowed it without chewing it twice, and then reached out to another dish with his chopsticks. His movements were so fast that people who didn't know would think he had pressed the accelerator button.
Maomao suppressed her killing intent, comforted herself, and silently said in her heart, this person is useful to Ajing... This person is useful to Ajing... This person is useful to Ajing...
Fortunately, the cat murder incident at the Zhige Base did not happen.
She could only speed up and eat more, but it was inconvenient for the cat's body and she couldn't grab the food at all.
He could only watch helplessly as most of the food went into Ning Yuantai's stomach.
After dinner, Ning Yuantai sat on the sofa, picking his teeth with a toothpick in satisfaction. Suddenly, he shuddered and asked in confusion:
"Brother Xue, is the air conditioner on in this room?"
Why does he feel a little cold
Xue Jing smiled upon hearing this and said casually, "No, the weather has started to get cooler recently, so it's normal to be cold."
He picked up the cat who was squatting on the dining table behind Ning Yuantai, in a feline hunting posture, and gently stroked her fur to calm her restless murderous aura.
As a tough guy, Ning Yuantai always believed in what Xue Jing said. Hearing this, he immediately nodded in agreement: "It seems so. It seems that I need to buy some clothes when I go back."
"By the way, Brother Xue, we have already found the poison on the snake man's body last night."
Ningyuantai Road.
This was also the reason why he came to find Xue Jing at this time.
Eating for free is just a side job... probably.
"Oh? What did you analyze?"
Xue Jing held the cat in his arms, sat down on the sofa, and asked curiously.
Ning Yuantai discovered that the cat in Brother Xue's arms was always looking at him. The cat had a very anthropomorphic expressionless face, and there was an inexplicable strange coldness about it, which made him feel a little creepy.
Shaking his head and putting this strange illusion behind him, Ning Yuantai said:
"Most of the ingredients in this venom are the same as those of ordinary snake venom, which are toxic proteins, but about 5% of it is an 'unknown substance' that has no reference material."
"The laboratory is currently urgently testing the chemical properties of these ingredients... trying to make the corresponding antidote, but I think it will be difficult."
"The abilities of the recipients of the alien religion are all somewhat mystical and cannot be understood by modern science. The reason why this poison is so toxic is basically due to this 5% of strange ingredients."
"It is unlikely that an antidote can be made."
Xue Jing nodded and said, "Is that so."
He didn't care, it was better than nothing.
Next time he meets that Dragon Cult member, he has to be careful and not get poisoned.
With the full body protection of the Shadow Flame Armor and the cheat-level life-saving ability of "Elementalization", it would be difficult for him to be poisoned.
The main reason why I want an antidote is that it would be terrible if someone around me accidentally got poisoned by it.
"By the way, Brother Xue, are you free today?"
Ning Yuantai suddenly winked at Xue Jing and said.
Xue Jing nodded, "Yes, I am free. What's the matter?"
"Then I'll drive you around. As a tour guide, I'm sorry that I haven't taken you to have a good time around the inner ring road yet."
Ning Yuantai stood up excitedly.
"There's a place that might interest you."
Xue Jing glanced at the cat in his arms.
"Meow~"
The cat called lazily, shook its fur, stretched, jumped off Xue Jing, leaped onto the sofa beside it, and lay down.
This means that you are not going.
Xue Jing thought about it and felt that today's training was enough. He could not continue to overdraw his mental strength to simulate consciousness, so it would be good to relax.
So he stood up and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go."
Ning Yuantai said happily: "Okay!"
…
Chapter 236 Dangerous Creatures Museum, New Troublemaker Xue Jing? Opening the Divine Creatures (4K)
Yuancheng, Area B3.
In front of a huge building with a rather strange shape, Xue Jing looked up with curiosity in his eyes.
"What is this place?"
Ning Yuantai next to him smiled and introduced: "'Beehive Dangerous Creatures Museum'."
"This is the place where the Beehive Hunter Company uses to advertise and show off its military power... This company is the largest hunter company in the Fifth Metropolitan Area and has signed contracts with numerous powerful border hunter groups. The Giant God Brigade we encountered a few days ago used to belong to the Beehive, but it seems that the contract has been terminated now."
Xue Jing turned his head and looked at a sign next to the museum entrance, on which was a map of the entire museum's architectural layout.
Its overall shape looks like a honeycomb structure, with small pentagonal honeycombs combined together to form an area, such as the Fire Dwelling Area, the Sea Dwelling Area, etc. Each "honeycomb" symbolizes a dangerous creature or a group of dangerous creatures, and the name of the creature is written in the center of each honeycomb.
"Once a group of hunters captures some rare borderland creatures, they are sometimes sent to this museum for exhibition for a period of time... Of course, there are more permanent creatures, and some even have a huge fan base like pandas."
“This place can be said to be a must-visit item for tourism in Yuanyuan City.”
Ning Yuantai preached incessantly.
Xue Jing smiled and said, "That sounds interesting... Let's go in and take a look."
Upon hearing this, Ning Yuantai led the way towards the gate, and Xue Jing followed beside him.
After entering, what caught their eyes was the spacious hall. Ning Yuantai went to the front desk to buy tickets, while Xue Jing looked around curiously, observing the architectural aesthetic style of the inner ring.
"It's done, Brother Xue, let's go in."
…
Inside the Beehive Dangerous Creatures Museum, terrestrial species area.
Through the transparent honeycomb pentagonal glass window, Ning Yuantai's eyes lit up, and he pointed at a rhino-like creature trapped inside and said:
"Brother Xue, look."
"That's the cub of 'Shura Great Rhino', it was born not long ago!"
Xue Jing looked up and said, "Cub?"
The rhino inside was sleeping on its side lying on the ground. Its huge body, which was nearly six meters long, was covered with a layer of skin that looked extremely hard like armor. It was snoring loudly, and its appearance had nothing to do with the word "cub".
"This thing is a special 'armored species' among terrestrial creatures. When fully grown, it is at least 60 meters long. Its danger level is between 5.8 and 6.2. There are even special 'elder individuals' that can reach danger level 7 or above! The building strength of the museum cannot contain it at all."
"Even a newborn cub like this can have a danger level of over 3.2..."
Xue Jing asked with interest: "Oh?"
He looked at the 'Asura Rhino Cub' inside through the transparent glass, and was eager to make a move.
Judging from the fact that he had previously killed the 'Sea Bee Queen' and the 'Tianxu Worm Queen' and obtained divinity, if he kills these highly dangerous borderland creatures, he will most likely be able to obtain divinity.
I wonder if this cub can...
Not knowing that Xue Jing was planning something bad, Ning Yuantai pointed to another transparent glass window.
"Oh my god, I'm really lucky today, Brother Xue, look!"
Xue Jing turned his head and looked in the direction he pointed.
It was an ordinary big tree. On one of the branches of the tree, there was a beautiful silver bird the size of a palm.
The bird seemed to notice him as well and locked eyes with him, its head slightly tilted, which made it look quite cute at that angle.
Then the bird chirped.
"Cry!"
The unexpectedly loud sound volume caused the air to vibrate visibly, and the transparent glass windows trembled as if they would be shattered in the next second.
The people around were startled by the shout, and some even fell to the ground.
Xue Jing's expression remained calm, and he simply asked, "What kind of bird is this? Why does it have special abilities related to sound?"
Ning Yuantai patted his ears, as if he was a little deafened by the scream.
Hearing Xue Jing's words, he shook his head and said, "... It's called Super Bird, a species discovered by the 'New Beiyang Council'. Its Chinese translation is 'Super Bird'..."
"It's not about sound... It's just about the sheer physical strength. Just like humans are 'supermen', it's also a 'superman' among birds."
"Not only are they extremely tough, they can also fly at speeds exceeding twice the speed of sound, and their strength is also quite terrifying... The danger level of each individual is at least 4.5."
"The individuals with silver feathers are still considered weak. The most powerful ones are the red-gold ones. Their physical fitness level alone is rated above level 6.6, and they also possess strange special abilities..."
"Oh~?" Xue Jing stepped forward, stood in front of the glass window, and looked at the silver bird inside with interest.
This one is definitely divine...
Seeing that Xue Jing seemed very interested, Ning Yuantai immediately smiled and said:
"Brother Xue, what kind of species do you think Superbird belongs to biologically?"
