After traveling through time, my blood became a panacea

A burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside.

Dao Er slowly opened his eyes.

I don't know if it's because he just arrived on this continent and was bombarded too badly by the heavenly calamity, or because Jian Yi took away some of the resentment in his body before leaving, and then it rose up too quickly, resulting in one increasing while the other decreasing. In short, after Dao Er gradually recovered from his injuries, he always looked sickly and listless.

"Master!" A muscular young man with his upper body bare stood at the door of the quiet room and shouted anxiously inside.

"Come in." Dao Er said calmly, still lying on the chair.

After getting permission to enter, the man immediately rushed to Dao Er's rocking chair and half-knelt and half-squatted.

"What's the matter, third child?"

"Master, someone is trying to steal our prey." The young man called Lao San said hurriedly.

"You have to stand up for us."

Dao Er frowned slightly.

The dozen or so former Baiyun Martial Arts School disciples who stayed behind were quite well-behaved and obedient. During the half year that Dao Er was recuperating from his injuries, they were diligent and respectful, busy serving him, which made Dao Er less worried (in fact, what Dao Er didn't expect was that he kept these people for free, as the original owner of the school had squeezed them dry, so these people were naturally dedicated).

So half a year later, facing their eager eyes full of anticipation and hope, Dao Er knew that they had no talent for cultivation and started too late, but after some consideration, he still gave them a choice.

A method of taking shortcuts in the ancient era of cultivation. It can gain power to compete with cultivators, but it cannot increase lifespan through cultivation like normal cultivators. Moreover, the mortality rate of this method is more than half. Even if it succeeds, the consequences will be serious.

Even so, after listening to Dao Er's story, no one backed down and they all expressed their willingness to give it a try.

In order to get rid of their ordinary identities, they have paid too much in Baiyun Martial Arts School. If they cannot get what they want, they would rather die.

So Dao Er went to Jiufeng Mountain and hunted more than a dozen stone-swallowing beasts. This is a kind of strange beast that is good at digging holes, moves slowly, and feeds on various minerals underground. It is also one of the lowest and least threatening strange beasts.

The only powerful thing about this beast is that after continuously swallowing various minerals from underground, the rock armor on its body will become harder and unbreakable. Its appearance is a bit similar to the pangolin on the blue planet.

Dao Er took out the stomachs of all the stone-eating beasts, and after some special rituals, he let the dozen or so disciples swallow them whole.

These stomachs that had been refined through secret rituals were still active. After being swallowed, they would instinctively counterattack and swallow their own stomachs.

In other words, they will clearly feel their stomachs being eaten and replaced bit by bit. In this process, not only will they have to endure great pain, but it will also depend on whether the individual can ultimately "control" the stomach of the stone-eating beast.

This process will last for three days. If the person is still alive after three days, it means success. Otherwise, he will die.

Of the eleven people, four succeeded in the end, and of the remaining seven, two were rescued in time by Dao Er and survived, because they obviously couldn't even survive the first day.

The other five people all died on the third day. By then, the stone-eating beast's stomach had lost control and began to eat away at their internal organs. Dao Er was helpless and could only help them end their suffering early. The risks had been mentioned in advance, and this was their own choice.

Dao Er accepted the four who succeeded as his registered disciples. The rest did not need him to teach them anything. After controlling the stomach of the stone-eating beast, they could improve their physical strength by eating the meat of the beast.

Eat continuously, strengthen the body continuously, and when it reaches a certain level, it can digest the materials for refining like a stone-swallowing beast. At that time, the strength of their body will have a qualitative leap. Therefore, this method can barely be regarded as a branch of physical cultivation.

If he could continue to grow, in the future he would be able to compete with a cultivator at the sixth level of the Human Yuan Realm with the strength of his physical body.

This method has no bottleneck in improving strength in the early stage, as long as you devour the flesh and blood of exotic beasts and various minerals step by step. However, there are also risks. First, the digestive ability is too strong, which easily leads to hunger and an amazing appetite. Second, the more advanced this kind of cultivator is, the more likely it is that the animal nature will overwhelm the human nature, and the cultivator will fall into a state of madness, not recognizing his relatives, and finally die of exhaustion.

The sixth level of the Human Yuan Realm is the limit of the first stomach replacement. It is not impossible to continue to improve by swallowing a more powerful stomach and replacing the stomach of the stone-swallowing beast. Of course, the success rate is terribly low, less than 10%.

After the four of them succeeded, Dao Er went into Jiufeng Mountain again and hunted several large first-level human Yuan realm beasts for them, in order to lay a foundation for them. After that, he no longer cared about them.

Jiufeng Mountain is not a single mountain, but a huge mountain range that is connected together. The mountain range has nine peaks of different heights, so it is called this by the outside world. From the outside to the inside, the strength of the beasts inside is getting stronger and stronger. The location where Dao Er appeared was probably between the third and fourth peaks.

After the four of them ate several strange beasts captured by Dao Er, their physical strength increased greatly and their power increased several times. Working together, they can try to capture and kill the weakest strange beast.

Of course, they could also buy the corpses of exotic beasts from others, but unfortunately, not to mention that they had long been drained dry by the old museum owner, even if they didn't have any, with the financial resources of the four of them, they probably couldn't afford to buy a complete exotic beast.

Without Dao Er's urging, the strong hunger forced the four to enter Jiufeng Mountain to hunt. After all, Dao Er accepted the four as his registered disciples, and someone had to clean and look after the martial arts hall. He said that he didn't care and that life and death were determined by fate, but he still followed the four in the first few hunts and quietly solved several crises. The four gradually gained experience and their physical strength increased again. As long as they didn't rush, he didn't have to worry about them anymore.

Unexpectedly, after only two or three months of peace, they would have a conflict with other people who hunted exotic beasts today.

"Master, those people don't take our Baiyun Martial Arts School seriously at all and laugh at us wantonly. If you don't take action this time, we will be too embarrassed to go out in the future."

Seeing that his master was still unmoved, the third brother hurriedly said, "If they dare to rob you the first time, there will be a second and third time in the future. Master, do you really want your disciples to be bullied by others?"

Dao Er felt annoyed. He guessed why the old owner chose the name Baiyun Martial Arts School.

He himself is only at the third level of the Human Yuan Realm. If he were to take a more resounding name, such as Zhentian, Huxiao, or something like that, some people might think he is arrogant and come to cause trouble for him.

Baiyun Martial Arts School, it sounds like it has no strength. Who would take the four of them seriously if they said this name? But the third brother was right. The four of them had to go hunting in Jiufeng Mountain frequently to improve their strength. If they gave in this time, they would probably be robbed again or even killed in the future.

Dao Er stood up from the rocking chair and stretched.

"Let's go, tell me what happened on the way." Dao Er said lightly.
