Chapter 89 Blood Water
Lin Yan was very grateful to the experienced practitioners who left the island for building several wooden houses here. Although these wooden houses used as temporary residences were not prepared for him, Lin Yan felt very satisfied now that he could have such a good place to settle down.
The temporary residence is relatively close to the outer edge of Dragon Island. There are not many ferocious beasts nearby, and most of them are of low strength. This way, Lin Yan can practice with peace of mind without constantly worrying about the danger of being attacked by ferocious beasts.
After taking the red-blooded wild ginseng and dragon eggs at the water pool, although they have been digested, they have not been absorbed yet. Most of the remaining essence must be absorbed completely in the next period of time.
Therefore, in the next nearly half a month, Lin Yan didn't go out much and basically stayed in the cabin to practice.
It has to be said that red-blooded wild ginseng is a first-class elixir. As the absorption progresses, Lin Yan's complexion becomes more rosy and his skin becomes smoother, but the more significant changes still occur in the body.
The qi and blood are strong, the amount of vitality is greatly increased, and the meridians are stronger, which undoubtedly makes Lin Yan's capital as a warrior stronger.
After half a month, the absorption process was finally completed, and Lin Yan himself was not disappointed. With the help of red-blooded wild ginseng and dragon eggs, his strength really broke through again, and he was promoted to the third level of the Mortal Realm!
The third level of transformation to the mortal realm means that the ability to communicate with the natural energy of heaven and earth has reached the point of autonomous induction. In other words, even if Lin Yan does not cross his legs and adjust his breathing, every pore in his body can automatically absorb the essence of heaven and earth. This The biggest change brought about is the transformation of vitality.
The vitality can now pass freely through the meridians without any obstruction, penetrating the entire body, making the degree of fit between the vitality and the physical body constantly increasing, and it is not far away from the final perfect fit to form a treasure body.
At this time, Lin Yan's body strength was at least twice as strong as when he was in the second level of Mortal Realm. If a fifty kilogram stone hit his chest, an ordinary person might break his sternum, but he would not suffer any injuries. matter.
As long as the body's endurance is doubled again, it means that his strength has reached the peak of the third level of transformation, and Lin Yan's current goal is set at this.
The realm of metamorphosis is divided into two stages. From the first to the third heaven, the main thing is to strengthen the body, and the speed of advancement is relatively fast, and the following is the stage of mining supernatural powers. Although the progress will be slow, the strength can be improved by leaps and bounds.
The other people who came to Dragon Island to practice this time have all passed the stage of physical strength, and their strength is between the fourth and seventh heavens of the Mortal Transformation Realm. Although Lin Yan is now in the same realm as them, but Specifically, it's still a lot worse.
Only when he reaches the stage of discovering supernatural powers can Lin Yan's strength rise rapidly. At that time, he may be able to compete with others with his magical nameless mental skills and unparalleled sharp swords.
Three days later, the food stored in the wooden house was almost finished. The sun was shining brightly today, and Lin Yan wanted to take a break, so he picked up his sword and walked in a random direction towards the forest.
In the nearest area, no matter which direction you walk, you can encounter suitable prey, and you don't have to worry about encountering powerful beasts. After all, this is only the outer edge of Dragon Island.
Not long after, Lin Yan discovered a Qingfeng wolf.
This vicious beast is one of his main food sources.
Lin Yan chased after him without hesitation.
Qingfeng Wolf can be called a strong man in this area, but when he encountered Lin Yan, he still had to run for his life.
Lin Yan first used his battle sword to create a blade and injured one of Qingfeng Lang's legs. Therefore, he was not worried that the injured Qingfeng Wolf could escape and chased him all the way.
During this period, Qingfeng Lang was hit by two more sword blades on his abdomen and back. Fortunately, the distance was relatively far, so he was not seriously injured.
But Qing Fenglang's speed inevitably slowed down.
But what surprised Lin Yan was that this Qingfeng wolf was really fierce. He insisted on dragging his injured body and ran wildly. In the end, he turned into a mountainous area and entered a cave.
Escape.
"unlucky."
Lin Yan cursed secretly.
But the worse is yet to come.
The sky that was clear just now suddenly has dark clouds. The air is as stuffy as a big pot lid on people's heads, making it difficult to breathe. Wherever the dark clouds gather, lightning and fire snakes appear in the blink of an eye.
There were several loud thunders.
In an instant, there was lightning and thunder, and the heavy rain fell down, hitting the leaves on the muddy ground with a "pop" sound.
"What bad luck."
In this large forest, there was not even a decent tree hole. Lin Yan could only quickly choose a tree that was lush but not very tall, and took shelter under the tree.
The rain came down overwhelmingly, forming a hazy curtain of rain with no end in sight. Even though Lin Yan was hiding under the tree, he was splashed all over by the sloping rainwater.
In the dark sky, the dull thunder kept ringing, and every short period of time, a flaming red lightning would tear open the black curtain of the sky, revealing a ferocious mouth, shining the whole world pale, trying to devour everything.
There are no scenes of wild beasts running around, and no roars of any beasts can be heard.
Under the pressure of nature, these usually ferocious and domineering forest lords seemed to have suddenly lost their temper.
Lin Yan also lost his temper and could only hope that the thunder would stop and the heavy rain would stop.
But today's hunting trip seems to be really unlucky.
Instead of decreasing, the rain became heavier and heavier. The thunderous thunder and violent lightning seemed to be energy stored by God for hundreds of years. At this moment, they all poured into the forest. For a while, many big trees were destroyed.
It was chopped off, and after a few bursts of black smoke, it was immediately extinguished by the heavy downpour.
Lin Yan was glad that he was hiding under a low tree and was surrounded by some big trees, so he was not hit by these crazy thunders.
And there is nowhere to stay on the ground.
Lin Yan squatted without moving, but his feet were already in the water.
Rainwater from all directions gathered in large quantities, forming countless small streams that rushed wildly through the forest, as if the next moment, this relatively flat land would turn into a vast ocean.
"When will this damn weather stop?"
Lin Yan stood up and squatted down to soothe his somewhat numb body.
It has been raining heavily for nearly an hour, and thunder and lightning have been raging in the sky for a full hour.
Lin Yan leaned against the tree trunk, his clothes were completely soaked, and he relied on the vitality in his body to keep his body warm.
Inevitably, Lin Yan buried his head in his knees, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.
A strange smell suddenly made his nose feel very uncomfortable.
Lin Yan then raised his head, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a scene that horrified him.
In a small stream flowing under his feet, the color of the water was actually blood red!
Moreover, it also smells fishy!
It's clearly blood!
The blood had spread with the flow of many streams, but one of them had the darkest color.
Lin Yan was frightened. He stood up in a hurry and looked up along the flow of the stream. As the lightning in the sky continued to strike, he discovered that the stream there was also red!
Where did the stream bring so much blood?
Lin Yan couldn't care less about saying "bad luck". Although he felt uneasy, his strong curiosity still made him want to solve this mystery.
At this time, the rain slowly stopped, and then the thunder and lightning disappeared.
The forest was filled with mist and moisture, but the area where Lin Yan stopped was filled with the unpleasant smell of blood.
Blood is still flowing down the stream!
Lin Yan pulled out the sword, held it in his hand, and followed the blood upstream along the stream.
Along the way, the color of blood became more and more obvious. I don't know what mutation caused so much blood to flow out.
After walking through thorns and thorns for about ten minutes, Lin Yan found that the surrounding trees gradually became sparse after passing through a bush.
The blood under the feet was gathering more and more.
Lin Yan tried not to look at the nauseating blood and moved forward again.
There is a flat land in front, but the lush trees that can be seen everywhere on Long Island are not seen here.
The further we walked, the sparser the trees became, until we finally came to a clearing. There were only a few weak pine trees scattered on the vast flat land, without any life at all.
The pores that automatically communicate with and absorb the natural energy of heaven and earth are almost closed, because the distribution level of spiritual energy here is really frighteningly low, which is in sharp contrast to the abundant spiritual energy outside, as if this place is a barren land.
But these were not what surprised Lin Yan.
Wherever he could see, sand piles formed by heavy rains could be seen everywhere, and beside each sand pile, there must be dozens of bloody corpses!
These corpses all belonged to ferocious beasts. They died in extremely miserable conditions and were all piles of rotten flesh. At first glance, it was impossible to identify the specific types of ferocious beasts.
The blood continued to flow out from these corpses, merged into the stream, flowed all the way, and spread to the distance.
This approximately 1,000-square-meter open space was full of corpses and blood was flowing everywhere. It was like a Shura hell!
Lin Yan held the battle sword tightly and walked forward step by step, slowly approaching a hilltop with only sparse trees in front of the clearing.
From the analysis of the scene he saw, Lin Yan vaguely guessed something.
The reason why there is a lack of spiritual energy here, the trees cannot grow normally, and even the mountain is almost barren is because there is a magic circle here.
When Mei Jiangxue and Mei Jiangxue were trapped in the corridor of Niutou Mountain, Mei Jiangxue specifically talked to him about seals and magic circles, so he also knew something about magic circles.
Although he didn't know the specific name of the magic circle in front of him, the magic circle absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy and must have its purpose. The most likely possibility is that the person who set up this magic circle needed the help of spiritual energy to maintain the operation of the magic circle, thereby converting the magic circle into something.
The place where the array is located becomes a forbidden area to prevent others from entering.
It's just that it seems that due to its age, the effectiveness of this magic circle has become less than what it was originally. If it were not level ground, there wouldn't be sparse trees.
But today's violent thunderstorm, which occurred once in a century, finally destroyed this magic circle.
A large black hole was opened at the bottom of the mountain. The original boulder had been broken into several pieces and scattered around the entrance of the cave. There was the eye of the magic circle.
If the formation's eyes were not destroyed by the power of nature, Lin Yan estimated that this formation would not appear on the flat ground.
And it was precisely because the magic circle was suddenly destroyed that the destructive power took effect and killed all the nearby ferocious beasts. It is no wonder that when I was taking shelter from the rain before, I could not hear the roar of any ferocious beasts.
Therefore, that formation eye should no longer have the power of destruction, so Lin Yan wanted to go deep into it to see what happened.
Who set up the magic circle in this inconspicuous place on Dragon Island?
Why set up a magic circle?
What kind of secrets are hidden inside the magic circle?
