Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City Chapter 287 - 286: Demon Beast Inner Core, Seventh Rank Demo

"Hiss!"

Lin Fan took in a sharp breath of cold air.

In this gaping maw, were rows of stark white fangs.

With a putrid gust, the visual impact instantly maxed out!

But.

Lin Fan was only montarily startled!

Following that.

An Instant Escape, and he appeared above the head of the Fifth Rank giant python, Xuanyuan Sword in hand, chopping down!

"Pfft!"

Blood spurted, and the head of the Fifth Rank giant python was cleaved off by Lin Fan’s sword!

"Thud!"

The head, akin to a small car, heavily smashed into the ground, sinking deep into the rotting soil.

The body of the python, however, was violently writhing, not dying imdiately, snapping several trees as thick as an adult’s waist around it.

A few minutes later, it gradually stopped moving!

"Why can’t my Divine Sense detect its presence? Ever since entering the Demon Beast Forest, my Divine Sense shrouded everything around , yet it failed to discover it. It actually managed to co within ten ters of ?" Lin Fan was sowhat shaken.

Ten ters!

For such a level of creature, it’s practically clinging to you.

Just a thousandth of a breath is enough for it to pounce.

"Hehe! This is a Black Scaled Python, it’s very special by nature, able to shield itself from a cultivator’s Divine Sense. I reckon that out of those bodies outside, at least half were killed by it!" Emperor Jade chuckled.

Lin Fan fell silent.

After a mont, Lin Fan asked, "Could it be that all the Demon Beasts in the Demon Beast Forest can shield from Divine Sense?"

"How is that possible! That would be too exaggerated, but according to my estimation, probably one-tenth of the Demon Beasts have this ability, so next up, little Fan Fan, you must be careful," Emperor Jade said, her voice tinged with playfulness.

She seed to be not worried at all.

And sowhat... excited!

But Lin Fan had to be cautious.

One-tenth of the Demon Beasts was still a lot.

If it happens again, like before, when a Demon Beast approaches within ten ters before he detects the danger, he could react once, twice, three tis... but ten tis?

"Oh right! Demon Beasts are different from Demon Beasts; for the purpose of Transformation, they consu the energy of their inner core to shape their bodies. But the inner cores of Demon Beasts are not consud, you can look inside the body of this Black Scaled Python, there should be an inner core," Emperor Jade reminded.

"Inner core?"

Lin Fan’s eyes brightened.

With the Xuanyuan Sword in hand, he dismbered the Black Scaled Python’s corpse.

Finally, at the position corresponding to the python’s vital seven inches, he found a purple inner core.

The inner core was the size of an adult’s fist, emitting purple light, and the essence of life within it extrely rich!

"This is a Demon Beast’s inner core?" Lin Fan was seeing such a thing for the first ti.

On Earth, almost every ordinary person had heard of stories of creatures cultivating and condensing inner cores.

Only, he had not expected them to be real.

"It seems of decent quality, the inner core of a Fifth Rank at its peak, close to entering the Sixth Rank realm if it had another two to three hundred years! Take it with you, and rember, besides finding the Blood Ginseng, you can also collect Demon Beast inner cores during your trip to the Demon Beast Forest! Because your Cultivation of the ’Chaos Golden Body Technique’ can directly absorb the energy from the inner cores!" Emperor Jade explained a few points.

"You must know, in the eyes of other cultivators, Demon Beast inner cores only have one use, that is to craft Elixirs."

"Really? Let try!"

Lin Fan was sowhat excited, imdiately circulating the Chaos Golden Body Technique.

And sure enough.

The inner core in his hand, like a chunk of ice exposed to the sun.

Slowly began to lt away.

Eventually, it vanished without a trace.

And within Lin Fan’s body, although his Mana did not increase by much, it beca much purer.

"It really works!" Lin Fan nodded excitedly.

Looking at it this way.

This trip to the Demon Beast Forest would not just be about Blood Ginseng, but also about collecting so Demon Beast inner cores.

...

...

At this mont.

Hundreds of miles away from Lin Fan, in a deeper part of the Demon Beast Forest.

A small team was slowly advancing.

The team consisted of three n and three won.

A middle-aged man wearing a purple robe and wielding a huge broadsword walked at the forefront of the team, seemingly the captain.

The other three won walked in the center of the team.

Two of the young ladies had appearances scoring above nine points; if not stunningly beautiful, they were at least the rare beauties one would not find out of a thousand.

The third woman, about twenty years old, had a rather ordinary appearance.

But her deanor, attitude, and conduct were very noble, not resembling an ordinary person.

Lastly.

Two young n walked at the very back of the team, seemingly tasked with protecting the rear.

"Alright! There should be no danger nearby, let everyone rest for a bit! The battle just now drained a lot of Mana from everyone, recover your Cultivation quickly."

Suddenly.

The middle-aged man at the forefront waved his hand.

Seeing this gesture, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, signifying the area was temporarily safe.

"This Demon Beast Forest is truly extraordinary, fraught with danger and opportunity alike!"

The woman in her early twenties, Dantai Ao Xue, sighed softly.

There were originally eight people in their team.

Having only entered the Demon Beast Forest for one day, venturing just over a hundred miles deep, they had already lost two mbers.

"Yeah! That black-scaled python was terrifying! If it weren’t for the captain’s might in holding it back, I fear... we might have been utterly annihilated."

Another young girl nad Gu Anrong patted her chest, speaking with lingering fear.

"For now, it’s safe. Let’s start looking for millennium Spiritual dicine soon! We’ve ventured a hundred miles in, and there should be plenty of millennium Spiritual dicines. If we’re lucky, we might even find so that are three thousand years old!" The captain of the team, Cao Yang, a man in a purple robe, said in a deep voice.

Everyone nodded in agreent.

As long as they could collect millennium Spiritual dicine, braving so danger was worth it.

At this mont.

The two young n each approached a young girl.

"Miss Gu, would you like so water?"

Zhou Dongbo obsequiously passed her a water flask.

"Thank you!" Gu Anrong thanked him politely, "No need, I still have so reserve water in my Storage Bag. You keep it for yourself!"

"Miss Wang, I have so roasted beast at here. Have a bit; it can help rapidly restore Mana." Another young man, Nie Wenlun, chuckled as he took out so Spiritual Beast at.

"I’m not hungry, let everyone else have it."

Wang Bingxuan, the beauty of the team, gently shook her head.

She found a rock, sat down, swallowed an Elixir, and began ditating to recover her Mana.

Ice queen, aloof, keeping everyone at a distance.

Zhou Dongbo and Nie Wenlun looked at each other, feeling sowhat awkward.

Cao Yang saw this and didn’t say much more.

After all.

A lovely maiden is a match for a gentleman; nothing strange about that!

Only Dantai Ao Xue was left alone, with no one paying attention to her.

After all, her appearance was too plain, plus she wore a veil.

Zhou Dongbo and Nie Wenlun had long been unable to help ridiculing in their minds—who would be interested in you when you look like that, and why are you still wearing a veil?

About half an hour passed.

Suddenly.

"Hahahaha!"

A strange laughter ca from the forest.

The entire team held their breath, and their scalps tingled.

They knew they were deep into the Demon Beast Forest, over a hundred miles in.

Who wouldn’t be scared when such a voice suddenly appeared?

"Everyone, on guard! This voice, it might not be human!" Cao Yang said solemnly.

This laugh, while sounding much like a human’s, carried a sense of peculiarity.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Everyone stood up, forming a defensive formation with their backs toward their teammates.

The hearts of Zhou Dongbo, Nie Wenlun, Gu Anrong, and Wang Bingxuan jumped to their throats.

If it’s not human, what else could it be? It goes without saying!

...

...

After a period of silence lasting as long as it takes to brew a pot of tea.

When everyone thought the danger was gone.

"Gagaga!"

Suddenly, another creepy cry echoed.

Then.

Before everyone’s eyes, a blur, a terrifying shadow swept through the air, heading straight for the team’s highest in Cultivation, at the peak of the Golden Core Late Stage, Cao Yang.

"Slash!"

A claw swiped through.

Cao Yang’s chest was torn open, revealing a bone-deep wound, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

"Hiss!"

Seeing this, everyone couldn’t help but inhale a breath of cold air.

Even Cao Yang, at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, was severely injured in a single encounter.

What in the world was that thing?!!!

"Everyone be careful, this creature... is a Seventh Rank Devil Ape, its nature is shady and elusive, incredibly fast, and it has a penchant for human females! It’s likely..." Cao Yang warned gravely.

"What?"

Gu Anrong and Wang Bingxuan exclaid in shock.

Instantly, their faces drained of color.
