My construction materials are weird

"How to handle this?"

Looking at the gathered wild boars, Xuan Huang was troubled.

Six wild boars weighed at least five thousand pounds, with the boar king alone weighing over a ton.

"Plans can't keep up with changes."

"Let's refine them."

Xuan Huang had originally planned to prioritize will tempering over physical body cultivation, but now he could only refine the wild boars to enhance his physical strength.

Will tempering required time to recover and control, while the body could be improved at will.

The six wild boars, under Xuan Huang's perfect refinement, could allow him to reach the fourth level of body refinement.

Currently, he was at the second level of will refinement and the second level of body refinement, a balanced state.

He had just entered the second level of will refinement in the morning, and it would take at least until tomorrow to familiarize and recover.

In fact, if the mental space were stable enough, he could have stored five or six thousand pounds of wild boar, but unfortunately, the current limit was 2000 pounds.

Having decided, he began.

Xuan Huang first collected three wild boars, weighing nearly two thousand pounds.

"Refine!"

Inside the consciousness space.

The Gui Xu Great Mill began to operate with a 'rumbling' sound, and the gray remnants of souls were drawn out, then dissipated, leaving only three strands of transparent matter that merged into the Gui Xu Great Mill.

"As expected."

This time, he definitively discovered that the true meaning within the wild boar's 'spirit' was being integrated into the illusory Gui Xu Great Mill, making the mill a little more solid.

Then...

The remaining blood essence was devoured by the three-legged furnace, and pure blood qi quickly filled Xuan Huang's body.

With a 'boom', like a surging river rushing through, Xuan Huang instantly reached the third level of body refinement.

And the true meaning within the wild boar's 'essence' was absorbed by the furnace, making the Heaven and Earth Furnace a little more solid as well.

After a while, the pure blood qi continued to replenish until Xuan Huang had absorbed it all.

"As long as all things give birth to a spirit, they have true meaning, hidden within their essence, qi, and spirit, is that it?"

Xuan Huang seemed to understand where the true meaning absorbed by the Gui Xu Great Mill, Tong Tian Jian Mu, and Heaven and Earth Furnace came from.

"Continue!"

Xuan Huang collected the wild boar king, intending to reach the fourth level of body refinement in one step.

"Refine!"

The process was repeated, constantly enhancing the level of body refinement, until the wild boar king was completely refined, and Xuan Huang reached the fourth level of body refinement as expected.

An inexplicable shackle appeared, and it seemed dangerous to continue strengthening the body.

"Is this the situation faced by martial masters in this world?"

After the body reached 4000 kilograms of force, while the will was only at the second level, there was a sense of muddiness.

"However, I won't give you a chance."

Xuan Huang looked up at the sky, which seemed to be clawing and twisting grotesquely.

The remaining two wild boars were simple, totaling more than a thousand pounds, which could be easily collected, and after reaching the fourth level of body refinement, the will had also increased a lot.

At least in the late stages of the second level of will refinement, which meant that the mental space could collect more weight.

"It's four thirty in the afternoon, I'll go back first."

Looking at his watch, it was already past four in the afternoon, Xuan Huang, having gained a lot, decided to go back.

...

"Eh, that's not right!"

Returning, Xuan Huang found that the thread he had pulled across the cave entrance had a hole in it.

And a bloody aura that did not belong to the blood pool permeated the air.

He drew his long knife, focused his will to perceive, and slowly approached the cave entrance.

"Screech—"

A harsh cry suddenly impacted Xuan Huang's mind, as if his head had been attacked.

Fortunately, his will was not weak, and he had a consciousness space, otherwise the situation would have been bad.

"Whoosh—"

First, a gust of air rushed towards him, accompanied by a divine soul impact.

A giant bat with a wingspan of one meter rushed out of the cave.

With a "tearing" sound, it was hindered by the thin thread pulled up by Xuan Huang, but it quickly broke through.

But that was enough.

After this slight obstruction, Xuan Huang had already slashed the bat with his knife.

"Clang clang—" sounds rang out.

This was a mutated ferocious beast bat, its body having undergone strange changes, and there was a sound of metal clashing when it collided with the blade's edge.

However, Xuan Huang, with his 4000 kilograms of force, was not to be trifled with.

The biggest trump card of this beast was its divine soul impact, and although its body had mutated, it was not the focus of the mutation.

Although there were clanging sounds, it was also split in half from the middle and quickly fell from the sky.

"Dododo—"

Having long known that this thing was like a puppet, and that it would give you a hard time if you didn't completely crush it.

Xuan Huang did not stop, and continued to slash the bat, which had been cut in half, until it was torn into pieces and difficult to reform.

Then he stopped and stared into the cave, sensing and exploring.

Only after discovering that there was only one, and not a group of bats, did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"After being away for four hours, animals are attracted and mutated, the blood pool is strange..."

Xuan Huang seemed to understand something.

"Does it only attract animals with instinct?"

Xuan Huang currently did not intend to enter the blood pool secret realm at the crack in the cave.

He knew his own limitations very well, and he would stay away from this kind of danger as much as possible, and solve it later when he was sure.

As the Lord said: Weakness is not an obstacle to survival, arrogance is.

Cultivate cautiously and advance step by step.

After tidying up, he found more dense threads to entangle the entrance.

Collecting the broken mutated bat, Xuan Huang returned to the safe house.

He sat down in meditation, focusing his will throughout his body, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already past seven in the evening.

It was already dark outside, and the man-eating aura permeated the cave entrance, like a ferocious demon.

"Hmm! The will is steady, could it be a benefit brought about by the strengthening of the body?"

He suddenly discovered—

That his will, which needed to be settled down tomorrow, could actually be tempered again.

Then there was nothing to say.

He quickly ate something, and Xuan Huang began to temper himself.

The blood qi power of the fourth level of body refinement was at least comparable to ten Great Revitalizing Pills, and there were also two dead pigs in the consciousness space.

"Boom—" The three-piece set began to work hard.

Enduring the pain, the will in the furnace was constantly hammered by the iron hammer, and the scorching aura was like a raging fire refining it.

The two wild boars were burned away.

The three-piece set took what they needed, and Xuan Huang reached the third level of will refinement near dawn.

Suddenly,

The previous feeling of muddiness in the body and the feeling of divine soul shackles had dissipated a lot.

Super-ego had deduced it many times, but at this moment, Xuan Huang was really sure:—This path is feasible!

...

Morning.

"Are you not injured?"

"No, you..." After Xuan Huang reported yesterday's situation to Jin Ning, Jin Ning hurriedly asked.

When he inadvertently checked Xuan Huang, he suddenly felt that Xuan Huang had changed a lot.

It was like the feeling he had when looking at a martial master.

"I am not injured, there is no need to summon the deputy curator, I can easily deal with it." Xuan Huang added: "I have made a slight breakthrough, I think it is the progress stimulated by the environment."

"This? Alright."

Jin Ning was stunned for a moment, thinking, is this a genius?

Why didn't he feel that this kid was so outrageous before?

Not only could he quickly adapt to the environment, but he could also quickly become proficient in combat, and even break through after a crisis.

"You are stronger than me, and more talented than me, but I still have to tell you a few words."

Jin Ning said, "After breaking through to become a martial master, you should have a feeling of shackles, and a sense of impending crisis?"

"Indeed."

"Do you understand the reason?"

"I have read the discussions of other martial masters on the martial arts forum."

"It's good to know, martial arts has temporarily come to an end, next you need to control it, otherwise..."

Xuan Huang smiled: "I understand. Don't worry, I won't joke about my own life."

"It's good that you understand." Jin Ning said, "Becoming a martial master, your personal safety will be greatly improved, so the martial arts hall does not have to rush to find someone to replace you in the short term."

"Is there another situation?"

Jin Ning nodded: "Two more comrades sacrificed last night, and a spirit master was seriously injured, and thirty-four ordinary people died, and nearly a hundred were injured."

"What's going on?"

"The strange alley appeared in our city, and it was too late when it was discovered. We suffered heavy losses but gained nothing. Spirit Master Zhang Tian desperately tried to save the people from the strange alley."

"The strange alley is still there?"

"It's gone." Jin Ning shook his head and said, "But once this strange alley appears in a city, it means that it will appear at any time in the future, and no experience has been summarized for the rules of its appearance."

"We don't know what causes it to appear."

Xuan Huang nodded silently: "I know, there is no need to find someone to replace me here for the time being, please convey it to the curator after you go back."

"Okay, take care of yourself, see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

A simple agreement, but it has become a beautiful wish now.

"Boom—"

Jin Ning drove away.

Xuan Huang looked at the distant city, turned silently and walked towards the cave.
