Chapter 41: Escape from the Dead
...
Lei Qing's speed reached his extreme, and a series of faint afterimages flew out, passing by the lakeside, and roared at the same time, disturbing the giant python that lived in the cold pond to prevent it from lying somewhere to sleep after eating and drinking. After the roar, he continued to rush away almost without touching the ground.
At this moment, his heart was about to flutter and he was extremely nervous. He must come out, he was almost unable to hold on, and his fighting spirit and physical strength had reached the limit.
All wild beasts have their own territory and sphere of influence. Not only does monsters continue this instinct, they also carry forward this instinct. Especially some monsters at the top of the food chain often reject predatory monsters of the same level into their own territory. This will not only reduce the hunting of food, but also pose a great threat to their own survival.
I don’t know whether I heard Lei Qing’s roar or the powerful and violent aura of the black-backed giant bear with the extraordinary spiritual sense of the monster. A ripples arose on the calm lake surface, and the hideous one-horned snake head floated out of the water, as thick as a bucket, and a majestic body three or four feet long stretched out of the water. The scales on my body were full of metal texture.
The giant python in the cold pond had cold eyes and spit out a few feet long snake letters, directly ignoring Lei Qing who was running wildly. The golden monster was already very intelligent, and it was obvious that with Lei Qing's strength, it could not threaten him. But the violent black-backed giant bear made the giant python in the cold pond vigilant, and a hissing scream came from hissing, as if warning the giant bear to cross the line.
The black-backed giant bear roared angrily, but it stopped its male body more than ten feet away from the Hantan, gasping slowly, and the bear stared at the Hantan giant python with bad eyes. It was also very wise, and felt the threat brought to it by the Hantan giant python.
For a moment, two powerful monsters confronted each other, but no one moved.
The only cheaper one is Lei Qing. He guessed it well, there were monster species that threatened his survival next to him. Whether it was the giant python in the cold pond or the giant bear in the black back, they would subconsciously throw themselves into the back of their heads, which was not threatening.
As for whether they will fight, Lei Qing did not pray for this. Monsters are not fools. They have predatory instincts and often like to attack the weak because it is not only easy but also dangerous. Without that monster, without hatred and starvation, they will attack monsters of the same level without hatred. Because that will not only hurt, but also die. For wild beasts and monsters, many times, if injured, they will not only go hungry, but also be targeted by other more powerful predators.
Therefore, in most cases, it would not work to try to drive away the wolf and swallow the tiger against monsters. Fortunately, Lei Qing never had any extravagant expectations for this. When he turned around, he felt relieved when he saw the giant bear confronting him. However, it was not the time to relax. After continuing to run for seven or eight miles, Lei Qing crawled into a small cave in a mess.
This is a safe point. A few days ago, a cave occupied by a primary bronze monster was killed. For a moment, the remaining monster territory aura would not have allowed the cave to be occupied. People think that monsters are cruel and easy to kill, and the inside must be full of all kinds of primitive blood and cruelty.
But the fact is just the opposite. The relationship between monsters and monsters is still very harmonious. Each monster has its own territory, either large or small. As long as it does not invade the territory of other monsters casually and without accidents, monsters will follow their instincts and rules. It is rare for one monster to attack the other for no reason.
But running into the cave does not mean that it is safe. Lei Qing suppressed his exhausted mood and was extremely eager to lie down and rest. He dragged his body with difficulty, stimulated the space ring and took out some of the bottles and jars.
These are mostly all kinds of strange medicinal materials collected by Zuo Qianqian every day, and even monster feces are tinkered with monster feces. The taste will make most monsters with sharp sense of smell feel pungent and disgusted. This kind of thing is used to cover up whereabouts, which is good. Because most monsters do not judge footprints and track prey based on their sense of smell. Some monsters with extremely powerful smell can even smell prey dozens of miles away if they are at the lower end.
Swing deep in the Tianji Mountains where monsters are rampant, unless you reach the strength of the holy level like Leng Yuewu without caring, the monster will retreat instead after showing a powerful aura. Otherwise, these things that cover up the smell are very necessary.
After dealing with these, Lei Qing pulled out the animal skin pad and sat on it. His muscles were sore all over his body, his bones seemed to be falling apart, and his throat felt like he was burning with fire. The deathly running just now almost maintained two incense sticks. The fighting energy in the Qi sea was burning clean, and he was breathing violently.
Gasping is an inevitable process for restoring physical strength. Inhaling the breath in the body will synthesize physical strength with some reserve energy under the mysterious action of the body. If the physical strength is unnecessary, it will synthesize the Dou Qi particles that exist in higher-level classes under the internal action of life factors.
As the physical strength recovered, Lei Qing felt a little better, so he barely drank some water. At this time, the dry Dou Qi in his body absorbed physical strength from the life factors and generated it, gathering into the meridians one by one to form a trickle of water, and finally flowing into the sea of qi.
Generally speaking, warriors who have practiced to the black iron level will be called passive recovery as soon as they enter a normal rest state, and their physical strength will be given priority and their body will automatically recover some of their fighting energy. This situation is called passive recovery of fighting energy.
However, this kind of recovery is conditional, that is, it is necessary to breathe normally when the physical strength is full and there is no need to be replenished. Because among the inhaled gas, there is a kind of qi that will participate in the body to help restore physical strength and Dou Qi. Researchers in the theory of Dou Qi call this qi the qi of life. Without this qi, let alone recover physical strength and Dou Qi, even life cannot be maintained.
Before, Lei Qing ran away with his life, all his functions were in an explosion state. Naturally, there was very little Dou Qi passively restored. On the one hand, the violent burning of Dou Qi provides huge power to the body, while on the other hand, the Dou Qi is only consumed but not in. This is the principle why Lei Qing ran out of Dou Qi after two incense sticks wildly.
If you only activate a small amount of Dou Qi to burn and rush slowly, and keep your body relaxed and breathing at all times, then the consumption of Dou Qi will appear to be invisible.
After Lei Qing took a short rest, he sat cross-legged with his sore and numb bones and began to enter a meditative state. He activated the Dou Qi in the Qi Sea, constantly circulating in his body, stimulating the life factors in the body, and taking the initiative to speed up the recovery of Dou Qi.
The speed of actively recovering the Dou Qi is more than several times that of the passive recovery. But the defect is also obvious, that is, you must sit down calmly and concentrate, and then activate the remaining Dou Qi to operate in a special way. If you are in a battle, no enemy is so stupid that you will be so leisurely that you have the opportunity to meditate to restore the Dou Qi.
Just as Lei Qing was meditating, a roar of a black-backed giant bear came dozens of feet away, which shocked the dim cave and dust fell. Lei Qing was frightened and prayed to the fairy sister in the sky to bless him and never let the terrifying giant bear find his hiding place. Otherwise, the only ending would be to slap it into pieces.
Now, Lei Qing has long thrown his mind to hunting a golden giant bear outside the clouds of the nine heavens. Just kidding, hunting it? If you can survive this time, you will not be hunted by it. The ancestors of the Lei family will appear.
Perhaps it was because Lei Qing's previous arrangement that worked, or perhaps his prayers showed their spirits. The giant bear seemed to have lost the clues of smell tracking, and then left directly after more than half an hour.
As the giant bear left, Lei Qing couldn't help but lie back on the animal skin mat. After relaxing his muscles, he realized that his back was wet, cold and cold. It was another difficult escape from death. The pleasure of surviving the disaster also made him feel extremely comfortable, as if he had been completely baptized.
