Liu Xin escaped from there and reached the outer layer of the forest which was safer than the inner forest. He climbed the top of a tree and sat on a thick branch.
He took out the corpse and skillfully cut its chest. From there, he took out the heart and a small stone which was its core. The core was used in the cultivation of the monsters.
"Hmm, I can refine formation pills from this core and heart." He opened the alchemy app and was surprised.
[Alchemy]
[Matetierals: (Instert)] -->[Furnance] -->[Pill]
"There is a furnace place too, now." He had received a furnace as a gift from the sect master quite a time ago.
It wasn't a grand furnace but a medium-quality one. It may cost some hundred high-quality spiritual stones.
[Materials: (Canis' Heart) (Canis' Core) (Refreshing Herb) (Minor Qi Herb)] --> [Medium Grade Furnance] --> [Formaion Building Pill]
[Time: 10 Minutes] (-5 Min due to Furnance)
"Hmm, a medium-quality furnace only decreases the refining period by 5 minutes? Isn't it too less?" Liu Xin sighed and clicked on the refine.
The refining process began. He sat in a meditative position, cultivating for ten minutes.
...
After ten minutes, three pills dropped into his palm. It emitted a sweet fragrance. He looked at the perfectly round pill and ate one.
Formation Building Pill can help in the breakthrough from Upper Qi Refining Stage to Formation Building Stage. It also provides energy which can help to increase the cultivation by some margin. However, this pill is useless for mid-Qi Refining Stage and also useless after the low Formation Building Stage.
The first pill pushed his cultivation from mid to upper. The next pill pushed him to the peak and the third peak created turbulence in his body.
[Ding!]
[Break through to Formation Building Stage]
[Success rate: 99%]
[10 High-Quality stones for perfect breakthrough and building a perfect base.]
[Will you pay?]
"Huh? You are even selling me this...And my base will be perfect, how so?"
[Perfect base means your formation will be top grade. You can easily break through to core formation without any requirement for external assistance. Your body will be twice stronger as the average formation-building stage cultivator. This deal is beneficial to you.]
"Really..." He has paid a lot of spiritual stones to the system already, he is even on the verge of getting poor. But for his future, he decided to invest 10 spiritual stones.
[Payment Complete]
As the notification rang, unknown energy invaded his body. His organ was refined and his dantian size increased. His heart palpitated and a small hole formed in the middle of the heart. A black stone formed from the accumulation of dense qi and laid on the hole completely filling it.
Dense spiritual energy ran through his body, his skin shed from his body. Pure white skin replaced the previous skin. Every bit of qi circulating in the body oozes out from the pore and refined the outer skin too.
His muscles, tissue and even cells became stronger, and a new feeling spread in his body. He felt energetic and even get a feeling he could destroy a big boulder with his raw strength.
After that, he got up and jumped from the tree. He landed on the ground with great force. The land around his landing cracked, and a small crater formed below his leg. However he had no injuries, no breaking bone and not even a pain hit him. His raw defence was enough to protect him from the fall from 100m height.
His speed increased too. Using the 'lighting feet technique' he passed one km in one minute.
"This feels great!" He ran away from the forest at high speed. He didn't return back from where he arrived, instead, he took another turn.
In his excitement of feeling the air, and enjoying the feeling of freedom, he unknowingly arrived at a village. As he reached the village, he stopped.
"!!" His sense tingled as the smell of blood wafted in his nose.
"Blood..." He walked into the village. "I didn't have any thought of interfering at first...But..." As he looked at the state of the village, Liu Xin didn't feel anything.
Blood scattered all over the road. Many houses were burnt. Villagers' bodies were laid on the ground, blood flowed as a river and the sound of laughter echoed all over the place.
Liu Xin sensed the presence of more than a hundred people, some cultivators, some normal and one must be the leader as his cultivation was over the foundation-building realm.
Liu Xin was completely emotionless in the face of the dead villagers. However, his eyes widened, as he saw the bodies of children.
1 year, 2 years, 5, 10 and even 12 years children were killed mercilessly. His eyes widened, and a deep frown appeared when he saw the bodies of naked women.
He didn't even look at those women, his eyes moved to the bodies of girls whose age was just 8 to 12.
"Inhumane..." Liu Xin didn't mind the death of villagers. But the murder of small children and raping of small girls completely engulfed the rage in his heart.
"AHhhh!" He screamed as images appeared in his mind.
His past collided with his present. Faces of children, a girl and a building flashed. His mouth was agape and his dead eyes looked up.
He was completely surrounded.
His heart raced, and he looked at the leader who came up to him with a smile.
'Kill everyone! Kill everyone!' This words echoed in his heart.
