Chapter 341 Fighting in the Mountains, Gaining Experience
Wen Yuanqian was shocked to see this and immediately picked up his broadsword and slashed at the ram's horns.
In the blink of an eye, just as the ram's horn was about to pierce Wenxia, Wenxia turned her body in mid-air, pushed off with her toes towards the ram's horn, and sprang to the side. She turned around and slashed at the ram's front hoof with her sword.
Even if the demon sheep runs very fast, it can't run without its front hooves.
Wen Yuanqian seized the opportunity and cut off half of the ram's horn.
Without its hooves and horns, this monster was no different from a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
The battle between the grandfather and grandson ended in an instant, while Yao Changhao and Wen Qikang on the other two sides were still fighting against the monsters.
Wen Yuanqian said to Wen Xia, "Xia'er, go help your third uncle."
"Yes, grandfather."
As the words drifted on, Wenxia rushed towards Wen Qikang like a gust of wind.
At this moment, Wenxia appears to everyone like a female warrior, dazzling and full of fighting spirit. Back then, she was a well-bred young lady who never left her home. Unexpectedly, exile has awakened her inner warlike nature. I wonder how everyone will view her.
Regardless of how others perceive her, Wenxia is currently enjoying the feeling of fighting.
She rushed to Wen Qikang's side and, with his help, used the same trick again, quickly chopping off the sheep's hoof.
The battle ended quickly.
Wen Qikang couldn't help but look at her with newfound respect. "Wow, Xia'er, I never knew you had such skills! Impressive! Your third uncle is impressed. A true heroine!"
After saying that, he gave her a thumbs up.
Wenxia accepted the praise with a radiant smile, saying, "Uncle, you flatter me."
With Wen Yuanqian's help, the situation on Yao Changhao's side was instantly reversed, and the monster was quickly killed.
Overall, although these monsters weren't very powerful, they at least gave everyone a chance to practice.
Practice makes perfect; practical experience will always gradually improve.
Next, the group encountered several small demonic beasts, all of whom were below the second level of cultivation. They killed them all with a single sword strike without much effort.
The journey along the river was quite pleasant; we didn't encounter any more large monsters, collected a lot of spiritual plants and herbs, and occasionally came across some spiritual fruits, which we didn't miss.
They found nothing more until nightfall.
The group found a low slope and rested there for the night.
The next day, after crossing the meadow and climbing over a mountain, everyone entered a forest.
This forest is filled with towering trees that reach for the sky, their branches and leaves so thick that their massive canopies seem to block out half the sky. Outside, the sun shines brightly, but inside the forest, it is dark and damp, exuding a sinister and terrifying atmosphere. In such an environment, there must be many monsters.
Everyone remained vigilant and cautiously made their way into the forest, step by step.
Sure enough, they hadn't gone far when the aura of a demonic beast rushed towards them.
Several demonic beasts were surrounding them, the highest of which was at the fourth level of Qi Refining, there were only one or two at the third level, and the rest were at the second level.
Just in time, Wen Chengbin desperately needed a fourth-level demonic beast to consolidate his cultivation, and encountering this demonic beast was the perfect opportunity.
The moment the two sides met, the battle began.
Wen Chengbin had a clear objective and slashed a wind blade directly at the fourth-level demon beast. The demon beast was not going to suffer a loss. It jumped to dodge and turned around, opening its mouth to spit out a flame at Wen Chengbin.
Good heavens, this monster can breathe fire! Wen Chengbin immediately took out his fireproof armor, put it on, circulated his spiritual power, and quickly approached the monster.
Closer in, let's see where it's going to spray. It's undeniable that human cultivators have a higher level of intelligence than demonic beasts. Wen Chengbin leaped and bounded around the demonic beast, and suddenly, a dense array of swords appeared before the beast's eyes, dazzling it. Feeling dizzy, the beast's steps slowed down and it staggered. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Wen Chengbin thrust his twin swords, piercing directly into the beast's eyes.
"Awooo—roar—"
The immense pain drove the monster completely mad. It charged and roared wildly, spewing flames from its mouth.
However, how could a monster that has lost its way possibly defeat an opponent with keen senses and sharp eyesight?
Wen Chengbin reacted quickly and ended the fight in no time.
Once he finished his task, the others were still fighting, but it was clear that they all had a slight chance of winning, so there was no need for him to provide support; he could simply wait.
Yes, everyone else was fighting the monsters on their own. This time, everyone was fighting individually, and that's how experience is accumulated little by little.
Over the next few days, the group wandered around the forest, hunting monsters and collecting as many useful spiritual herbs and plants as possible. They were determined not to leave empty-handed and wanted to gather as much as they could.
One day, Grandpa Turtle even volunteered to lead everyone to dive into the sea for an underwater trip, making up for Wen Chengbin's regret.
While they were fighting monsters in the mountains to gain experience, the royal sacrificial ceremony began in the capital.
......
京都
As everyone knows, preparations for the royal sacrificial ceremony are underway. During this time, the capital is filled with solemnity and peace, and the inner palace is also filled with warmth and harmony.
The weather was fine that day.
Consort Luo instructed the palace maids to take the children to play in the inner palace garden, and since she had nothing to do, she went along as well.
The imperial garden was not exclusive to the imperial concubines. Any concubine could come here to enjoy the flowers and play whenever she had free time. Today was another beautiful day, so the concubines appeared one after another in the various pavilions of the garden to enjoy the flowers and drink tea.
Consort Luo came out a little late, so the pavilions she encountered along the way were all occupied by other ladies-in-waiting or noble ladies. To show her magnanimity, she politely declined all invitations and offers to give up the pavilions to others.
“No need, sister. You can sit. I’ve been lying down for the past few days and I need to walk around more.”
Consort Luo stopped near a pavilion after walking until she was slightly sweaty and the children beside her were clamoring to get down and play.
Only Consort Lin and Consort Jiang were present in this pavilion.
The two women were also out for a trip with their children, both two or three-year-old princesses. The two little girls were chasing and playing on the grass not far away.
Just now, Consort Luo's son saw his sisters here and started clamoring to come down and play with them.
Children that young don't understand scheming and intrigue, and they quickly become friends.
The palace maid stood by and watched.
Consort Luo, feeling it beneath her dignity, went into the pavilion, sat down, and chatted idly with the two men.
Not far away, three children were circling around some low shrubs, talking and laughing, their laughter echoing throughout the corner.
What's so fun about bushes to adults? But kids find them fun and can play with them in all sorts of ways.
Two little girls were seen weaving through the bushes, chasing each other, running faster and faster, and running even faster.
*Thud!* The person in front of him tripped and fell, tumbling forward.
The children following behind didn't have time to stop.
Snapped!
Another fall.
Snapped! !
Those that followed were not spared either.
"Wow--"
Immediately, a loud cry pierced the eardrums.
