Losing her balance, Ye Lingyue cried out in her mind. The entire tree was hollow inside.
In her panic, Ye Lingyue hugged her head by instinct as she crouched into a ball and rolled down straight.
It was fortunate that Ye Lingyue was already in the third level of body tempering, so her skin was as hard as copper and was barely injured after rolling down. It was only when her feet had touched the soft soil that Ye Lingyue let go of herself.
At the bottom of the tree hollow, the floor was flat and exuded a clear pine fragrance. However, it was a little dark inside. It was a good thing that she still had the fire torch with her, so Ye Lingyue hurriedly lit it up.
The fire torch lit up the entire hole and she realized that the bottom of it seed to be a storage space. Small items filled the space together with so items that looked like animal bones. There were even many unknown rotten fruits.
It seed that she had accidentally fallen into a tree hollow where the iron-ard ape stored its items.
Ye Lingyue raised the torch and looked around. On the left side, she saw several earthen jars with banana leaves covering them.
She lifted the banana leaves and saw a jar full of fine, delicious wine. Its fragrance swelled in the room and instantly, it filled the entire tree hollow. Even Ye Lingyue, who didn't like to drink, felt extrely enticed.
Besides, the weirdest thing was that Ye Lingyue had only taken in a few whiffs of the wine, but she could already feel the elentary force in her dantian recovering like a high-tide appearing.
This wine was a good thing!
Ye Lingyue's eyes brightened at the thought. She moved forward and took a few sips of wine.
Who knew that the wine tasted extrely sweet and delicious that Ye Lingyue ended up drinking a good half of the jar.
By the ti she felt a wee bit intoxicated, her body started to sway. She could not stand properly, and it was as if she was a drunken man. She collapsed on the floor and fell unconscious.
In her unconscious state, her body excreted a large amount of black substance.
What Ye Lingyue didn't know was that the wine she just drank was called the Hundred Fruits wine, brewed from various herbs and precious fruits the iron-ard ape collected from the mountain.
After drinking it, not only can one improve their body condition, it also cleanses the bones. The iron-ard ape's unnatural strength and strong body condition were also because it drank Hundred Fruits wine.
A cup of this wine was especially precious to any martial arts practitioner below the connate level. However, Ye Lingyue had drunk a good half of a jar like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruits. It was extrely wasteful of her to do so.
This ti, Ye Lingyue slept for three full days and nights. By the ti she woke up, she hurriedly jumped up and realized that a layer of black mud-like dirt had covered her up. She even slled terrible.
However, at the sa ti, she felt lighter in her limbs. Not only so, the elentary force in her dantian drastically grew.
"Could it be the fifth level of body tempering?" Ye Lingyue called on the new elentary force within her. Like an opened dam, it flowed out rapidly and sward within Ye Lingyue's body.
In her happiness, Ye Lingyue did a Broken Thunder Fist.
Doing the move, she looked cooler and less uneasy as compared to before. She was beginning to look like a smooth, flowing liquid.
"Broken Thunder Fist." From Ye Lingyue's hand, five lightning bolts appeared and morphed into five half-moon rays. The rays hit the tree and fire sparked all over. With a loud bang, the entire tree burned brightly.
Five bolts. She could emit five lightning bolts now.
Ye Lingyue stared at her hand in disbelief. Although Broken Thunder Fist was only a type nine move, most of the Ye family mbers needed at least five years to be able to emit at least four lightning bolts. However, it had barely been a month since Ye Lingyue started learning it.
"Haha. Iron-ard ape, I have to thank you for this ti." Ye Lingyue started laughing out loud. She didn't hold herself back either and took all the remaining six Hundred Fruits wine jars with her. Anyway, with Hongng Sanctuary, it was fairly easy to take away several jars of wine.
Ye Lingyue was planning to move the wine into Hongng Sanctuary when she heard a loud and angry growl.
Suddenly, she saw the sa iron-ard ape rushing over. It turned out that Ye Lingyue's Broken Thunder Fist had alerted it.
When it saw that its hollow tree was ruined and that Ye Lingyue was even trying to steal its precious wine, it triggered the iron-ard ape that it angrily growled. It created a strong airwave and launched it at Ye Lingyue.
"Oh, it's only been three days. Why is the iron-ard ape so much slower?" Ye Lingyue was shocked, but she hadn't realized yet that after drinking the Hundred Fruit wine, she had broken through two levels straight. Her bones had been cleaned as well and her ability differed vastly from before!
With a jump, Ye Lingyue aid at a dead corner and several Broken Thunder Fists hit the ape's head. With the punches, five lightning bolts instantly smashed the ape's head into a waterlon-like mash.
Before it could even cry out, the ape's two hundred pounds body fell back. White brain mash and red blood seeped into the ground afterward. With that, it couldn't be any less dead.
After killing the ape with a punch, Ye Lingyue was still a little shocked. She only let out a sigh of relief a few monts later.
"This thing's skin is worth quite a bit, but its at doesn't taste good." At this thought, Ye Lingyue suddenly rembered that she had been asleep for three days after getting drunk in the tree hollow. She had almost forgotten about the adorable little pup in Hongng Sanctuary.
