Time Manipulating System - Chapter 3

Chapter 3 – Qi Gathering Grass

It was an ordinary town at the foot of the Flowing Cloud Sect’s mountain.

This place was close to the Black Wind Forest. Most of the visitors were cultivators. Some came to the Black Wind Forest to hunt beasts, while others came to search for heavenly resources. There were even those who rushed here halfway to rest. There was huge traffic in this area.

After leaving the sect, Gu Yang quickly arrived at Black Wind Town.

Of course, he wasn’t in a hurry to enter the Black Wind Forest to hunt beasts. He first found an inn to stay at.

He planned to have a meal at the same time. However, when he had just taken a seat, many people in the inn looked at him more or less. Of course, it was not because Gu Yang was too handsome. It was because of the signature cloud markings on Gu Yang’s robe!

That was the symbol of the Flowing Cloud Sect.

One must know that the Flowing Cloud Sect was one of the four great sects in the Southern Province.

In Haonan Province, everyone was well-known.

Of course, Gu Yang didn’t take these matters to heart.

Soon, the food was served. Gu Yang quickly began to eat. After eating and drinking, Gu Yang rested for a moment before preparing to leave for the Black Wind Forest.

But right at this moment, waves of discussions sounded in his ears.

“Hey, have you heard?”

“The White Sun Sect’s disciples have also come to the Black Wind Forest!”

“Ha? Really? isn’t the White Sun Sect quite far from here? Why are they here?”

“They seem to be here to train. After all, the White Sun Sect is in a beast tide and has no way to train. That’s why they came to the Black Wind Forest, right?”

“It must be like this. The White Sun Sect’s number one genius, Du Feng, has also arrived. He should be leading the group!”

“Is it Du Feng who killed a Qi Condensation expert when he was only at the peak of the 9th stage of the Body Refinement Realm?”

“It’s him!”

“Holy damn! Who’d still have the courage to go in and hunt ferocious beasts anymore?”

“According to the White Sun Sect’s personality, once we encounter them, we’ll be robbed. Forget it, forget it. I’ll go back and sleep after I finish my meal and wait for them to finish their training.”

“Truly unlucky!” It looks like I won’t be able to hunt beasts in the Black Wind Forest for the next couple of days.”

As they chatted, a trace of gloominess and anger appeared on their faces. They were itinerant cultivators. They didn’t enter any sect, so they went hunting for ferocious beasts wherever they could earn money. Along the way, they would often encounter the situation of sect disciples training.

Amongst them, the White Sun Sect disciples were the most arrogant.

Every time they met, the other party would look for resources overbearingly. If they denied, they would say that they wanted to become enemies with the White Sun Sect. This made them extremely unhappy.

But there was nothing they could do besides hide.

Gu Yang heard it clearly from the side. However, he did not take it to heart. After hearing this, Gu Yang stood up and left the inn. He walked towards the Black Wind Forest.

The Black Wind Forest was extremely ancient. Rumours had long since existed. There were many types of beasts inside.

Moreover, because they were at the foot of the Flowing Cloud Sect, to prevent the beasts in the Black Wind Forest from hurting their disciples, the experts of the Flowing Cloud Sect had once attacked and destroyed the Black Wind Forest.

They killed all the powerful beasts inside. As a result, there were quite a few ferocious beasts in the Black Wind Forest.

It was relatively safe.

It could even be said to be a sacred ground for training. Of course, there were still some powerful beasts in the depths of the Black Wind Forest. However, as long as they did not enter the depths, they would naturally not be able to encounter them.

Gu Yang’s target wasn’t those Qi Condensation beasts.

Naturally, there was no need to go in too deep. There were many ferocious beasts in the Black Wind Forest.

Gu Yang had only just walked a short distance when he encountered one.

Within a dense bush. Shockingly, a crimson-coloured leopard was lying on the ground! The leopard’s heavy breathing could be heard evenly. It was resting.

Gu Yang’s arrival startled it and it awakened.

“Roar!”

The leopard let out a furious roar at Gu Yang. Killing intent erupted from the beast’s eyes!

Furious in its heart, its powerful hind legs immediately kicked off and charged at Gu Yang.

Gu Yang glanced at the leopard.

Good fellow …

He encountered a beast at the 10th stage of Body Refinement Realm! Speaking of which, this was the first time Gu Yang had encountered a ferocious beast.

As he pondered, the leopard raised its huge claws and slashed towards him. The sharp claws tore through the air and emitted a series of sharp sounds. It was full of power!

Seeing this, Gu Yang shifted slightly to the side and dodged the leopard’s attack.

Without any hesitation, he raised his fist and used his Vajra Fist to attack the leopard’s abdomen.

Rumble!

A seemingly ordinary punch instantly landed on the leopard’s abdomen.

“Ao!” A scream came from the leopard’s mouth.

Bang!

The leopard instantly fell to the ground and let out a miserable groan. Its entire body trembled. An enormous bloody hole appeared where Gu Yang had struck. Blood continuously flowed out.

The scene was extremely shocking!

At this moment, the leopard’s gaze towards Gu Yang was filled with fear. It was obvious that it had never thought that this human who didn’t seem to be that strong would be able to unleash such a terrifying power!

On the other side, Gu Yang was somewhat stunned.

With just one punch, the leopard that was at the 10th stage of Body Refinement was lying down?

Looking at the huge bloody hole in the leopard’s abdomen, he fell into deep thought.

It had to be known that even at the 10th stage of the  Body Refinement Realm, ferocious beasts were stronger than ordinary human cultivators! In terms of physical strength, the same was true.

If the same strength was unleashed towards a human cultivator and a ferocious beast.

The power that could cause a human cultivator to vomit blood could only cause it to roar in pain when it landed on a vicious beast. It could not even injure it!

For a beast at the 10th stage of the Body Refinement Realm, its physical strength would probably require several cultivators at the 10th stage of the Body Refinement Realm to attack at full strength to kill it.

In the end … I just hit it half to death with just a single punch …

No, to be exact, if he didn’t care about it, the blood of the leopard would be drained in a few minutes.

It was equivalent to killing a leopard at the 10th stage of the Body Refinement Realm with a single punch …

Vajra Fist was truly perfect, It was truly terrifying. Gu Yang couldn’t help but glance at his fist and sigh. Of course, he did not sigh for long.

In next to no time, his gaze was attracted by a green-yellow medicinal grass.

His eyes immediately lit up.

“grade-two Qi Gathering Grass!”

This was a second-grade precious medicine, and it was extremely beneficial for cultivation! It was especially useful when a martial artist broke through to the Qi Condensation Realm. It could increase the probability of breaking through by thirty percent.

No wonder there was a leopard at the 10th stage of the Body Refinement Realm nearby.

It turned out that it was protecting precious medicine.

Gu Yang was overjoyed.

He didn’t know if this Qi Gathering Grass would allow him to break through to the Qi Condensation Realm.

Gu Yang revealed a look of anticipation.

After that, he walked forward without the slightest hesitation and picked off the Qi Condensation Grass.

Suddenly, an explosive shout came from behind him!
