Ancient Strengthening Techniques
Chapter 114 - Golden Steel Demonic Boar
The two of them walked onto the main road in Hundred Miles City. The street is very crowded, with all sorts of trinkets and antiques sold everywhere. Yiye Jiange puzzledly looked around as she slowly settles down, before asking lightly, ” Qing Shui, are you very interested in demonic beasts and mountains? ”
” Yes, but it's just my delusion. After all, I'm not a beast tamer! ” Qing Shui laugh.
” Beast Tamers? ” Yiye laughed, as he continued, ” Actually, words, ‘beast taming’ is just a blank title at the moment. A real beast catcher had not been seen in this world from the nine continents for a very long time. For the current ‘beast’, they were just experts who could understand a few simple words of the beast language! ” Yiye replied, somewhat disgustedly.
’’ Sir, what do you think happened? I'm a little confused. ’
’Now, all the so-called ‘beast explorers’, despite being at the Xiantian level, is just a fake. I heard that/that long ago, a real beast tamer could even tame a demonic beast only at the level of a Martial Warrior. They are true beast tamers. Right now, where would there be beast explorers who could tame demon beasts far above their class? That falsity could only rely on the Beast Taming Pill to help them tame the beast. ’
’’ Beast Taming Pill? Whatisit? ” Qing Shui realized that/that his knowledge was really too limited.
’The Beast Taming Pill was made using materials from various demon monsters. After consumption, it would increase the user's aura twice, allowing the demon beasts to be more easily scratched, for a period of 20 hours. ’
”What? That her? No other effect? ” Qing Shui asked suspiciously.
” No! ” Yiye laughed, as she shook her head.
“Beast taming pill should be very expensive, right?” After all Qing Shui heard Yiye Jiange say that/it pill was made from the ingredients provided by various Demonic Beasts.
’’More than you can imagine. The beast taming pill was one of the most precious pills that alchemists could concoct. Even if you have money, it might not even be for sale. After all, a tamed beast pill required precious materials from over 20 types of demonic beasts. Inner core, and inner organs, in particular. Of course it's expensive. ’’ Yiye light laugh.
” But if that's the case, doesn't that mean that/that anyone can tame a beast? ” Qing Shui kept asking.
”Of course. As you can see, the stronger cultivators almost all had their own mounts. As long as you can defeat the demon monsters, there is a chance that they will follow you willingly. However, the chance was very small, about 1 in 10,000. So for those with mounts, they might try taming the beasts for several tens of thousands of times to several million times. ’
Qing Shui felt joy in his heart.1 out of 10,000 times meant nothing if he had the power of desire. Like the Iaido technique, didn't his current achievement happen after he practiced over several hundred million times?
After walking, Baili Jingwei and Yiye Jiange departed. Before leaving, Yiye repeatedly reminded Qing Shui not to neglect his cultivation, and remembered to make him proud in the sect in the future.
After this matter, the Yu Clan and the Qing Clan became the two clans with the most authority in Hundred Miles City. Especially the Qing Clan, it was as if they were from the city, and had built their roots there a long time ago. Qing Shui had also become a special existence, with people envying him.
The Yu Clan and the Qing Clan's relationship were getting closer. This, not only did not destroy the reputation of Yu He Inn, but the business was growing rapidly more than before.
’’ Qing Shui, prepare yourself. It's time to go out of town to get herbs, so we'll be leaving tomorrow afternoon! ” Qing Yi reminded Qing Shui during her morning practice.
Qing Shui remembered that/it was already half a year. Every year, the Qing Clan's medicinal shop would trade with the Hua Clan of Heavenly River City twice. “Mother, are we going to Hua Clan tomorrow?”
’’ No, we should avoid temporarily going to Heavenly River City. Tomorrow, we leave for the mountains south of Xinan. There are a lot of posts there. Every year, they would spend most of their time hunting and gathering herbs. This time, we will trade with them, and there may be some rare and precious herbs found there. ” Qing Yi tiptoed to ruffle Qing Shui's hair. After all Qing Shui grew taller during this span of time.
Qing Hu and Qing Bei would not be persuaded, and demanded to come along. After the problem passed, they returned. What followed him were many others. Other than Qing Luo, Qing He and Grandpa Lin who were bookkeepers in the hidden library of the Qing Clan, almost everyone had been together with Qing Hu and Qing Bei, respectively, coming to Hundred Miles City.
Qing Shui felt extremely excited in his heart. ” Such large-scale movements, it looks like our Qing Clan will expand their business here in Hundred Miles City. ’’
’’ Aunty, take me! I promise to obey. ” Qing Bei pulled up Qing Yi's sleeves while pouting.
In the end, they brought Qing Hu and Qing Bei along for their journey. In addition to the two drivers, the four of them sat inside the carriage. The beast that pulled the carriage was a low-grade metallic bull beast. With a height of 3m and a thickness of 2m, it was a favorite type of beast carriage for merchants. Although its speed was slow, it was sturdy and muscular.
This time, their trip to and fro would take a month, and after some consideration, they chose the metallic bull as their horse of choice.
The southern mountain range was in the southwest direction between Hundred Miles City, and the Qing Clan village. Behind the mountain there are countless assorted beasts, aptly named ” Beast Gorge ’’. No one knew the level of danger within the abyss. There, aside from the demonic beasts, there were also towering mountain peaks, deep and dark forests, as well as dangerous swamps. It was said that/it even cultivators in the Martial Emperor Realm would not dare to easily set foot inside the ‘Beast Gorge’. This place was one of the most dangerous places on the continent.
The distance was comparable to the distance between Hundred Miles City and Heavenly River City. However, with the metallic bull as their horse, their speed would slow by half. On the way there, Qing Bei's chatter sounded nonstop, while Qing Hu seemed to be somewhat out of there. We're not sure if he's thinking about Lan Yan`er.
The streets outside Hundred Miles City, were all desolate mountain roads. Fortunately there weren't too many ferocious or desolate class beasts appearing around this area, which was why Qing Yi agreed to allow Qing Hu and Qing Bei to come.
Qing Hu rubbed his head as he timidly replied, ” 7th Class of the Martial Warrior Realm, I cannot compare to Qing Shui. ’
’’ Hehe, don't rush. Just work hard on your cultivation. I'll prepare something nice for dinner tonight, guaranteed to keep you satisfied. ” Qing Shui's mind shifts to a fruit that increases dexterity that will ripen again next year.
” Alright, I know brother Qing Shui will only give me good things. Hehe, now even though I am in the 7th class Martial Warrior, most of them in the same generation are not my friends. But I don't know how much longer until I can break through to the Martial General Realm. ’
Qing Shui was happy to see how sincere Qing Hu was in his cultivation. ” Calm down, just work hard and stop thinking about it, You will definitely be able to reach Martial General Realm in the future. Conversely, if you continue to force yourself, it will be harder to break through. ’
” Brother Shui, don't forget me if there's any good stuff, hehe. ” Qing Bei sat beside Qing Shui as she gorgeously hugged Qing Shui and declared.
’Even if I forget everyone, I can't forget you. You are the great missy of our Qing Clan! ’’
Qing Shui's words caused everyone on the carriage to burst into laughter.

The Wild Boar Mountains!
A week later, they entered the Forest Pig Mountain Range. These mountains only had a range of about 100 li, and could not be considered too large. However, on its eastern side, it led to the Cloudmist Mountains. Fog and fog covered the Cloudmist Mountains all year round. Viewing distance is always very bad, and basically people can only see objects three feet in front of them.
The Wild Boar Mountains were full of countless swarms of wild boar-type beasts. When Qing Shui noticed the frightening figure, he immediately wiped out his previous thoughts of underestimating the boar.
The boards are mature about 2-3m talls, and are very muscular. Their tusks were about 50cm long, and shone with a cold light. Their size was double compared to the wild boar in Qing Shui's previous world. A hint of redness similar to bloodlust could be spiked from their eyes, causing Qing Shui to suspect they were really just wild pigs.
Livestock can be seen everywhere. In a small herd, there were about 20-30 pigs within, and in a large herd, there were about several hundred wild boars. An attack by a herd of several hundred wild boars, perhaps only cultivators at the Xiantian level would be able to withstand it.
Usually, for carriages that crossed this path, they had to be careful of attacks from wild tigers and wolf herds. Unless they were cultivators, most people would not choose to travel to this area.
Qing Yi chose this route because she had prepared some Skeletal Tiger Powder. As long as the powder was sprinkled onto the carriage, the boar would not dare to approach.
On their way, everything was peaceful. Qing Shui could see the activity of the boar. Their appetite was huge, and it seemed like they could eat anything. Not only that, their growth rate was also fast, then there would always be some cultivators trying their luck to hunt the boar.
Suddenly, in the distance, Qing Shui could see the wild boar with a frenzy raging around before running in all directions in panic. It seems they are running away for their lives.
” Could there be a high-level demonic beast? ” Qing Shui is full of trepidation.
” Aunty, what is going on? ” Looking at the herd of boars with a frenzy of escape, Qing Bei asked in a confused tone.
’’ Hmm, there might be a wild beast appearing! That's okay, at most in this region there will only be high-level vicious-class creatures. ” Qing Yi pacified Qing Bei.
After the swine herd spread, troublemakers appeared. After Qing Shui and the others saw it, an incredible expression appeared on their faces.
In front of them was a golden-colored demon pig. Looking wise, it was somewhat similar to a boar, but it had no fangs, and a wild gleam of a boar in its eyes. It even looks a little stupid.
The golden colored pig was about 1m in size. When compared to an adult pig, it looks very small and rather adorable, but its movements are very agile and agile.
” Golden Steel Demonic Boar! ’’A bright light flashes in Qing Shui's eyes!
