chapter 12 Double headed fox
Xua Yan woke up the next morning with an intense hunger. He had not eaten enough food the previous day and now he was feeling the effects of it. He quickly ate the leftovers that he had stored in his shelter but it was not enough to fill his stomach. He realized that he needed to find more food. Xua Yan decided to go and check the trap that he had set up in the jungle. He hoped that the traps would have caught some wild animals that he could eat.
As he made his way to the traps, he was filled with a sense of hope and anticipation. He was excited to see what kind of food he would find. When he got to the traps, he started to inspect them one by one. But as he went through each trap, he was disappointed to see that all of them were broken. He could not understand why all the traps had broken. He had set them up carefully and securely, and he was sure that they would not break easily.
Xua Yan started to think about the possible reasons why all the traps had broken. He thought about the possibility of wild animals breaking the traps to get to the food, but he dismissed that thought because the traps were made with strong materials. He then considered the possibility of strong winds or heavy rains, but it had not rained or been windy in the last few days. He was puzzled and could not figure out what had happened.
This situation made Xua Yan feel frustrated and a little bit worried. He had to find food to survive and he did not have any other means of finding food at the moment. He was in the jungle and he was alone. He had to find a solution to this problem. Xua Yan decided to start setting up new traps, but this time he would make them stronger and more secure. He would also set up more traps in different locations to increase his chances of catching food.
After the complete setup of traps he decided not to wait for animals to get caught into the traps. He decided to go into the forest to hunt bigger animals. He could wait for animals to get caught in the traps, but he realized that it might take a long time and his hunger was not going to wait. That's when he decided to go into the forest and hunt for bigger animals himself. This was a bold decision, but Xua Yan felt confident in doing so. The first reason for his confidence was that he had just reached level 6 of the body tempering stage and his strength had increased significantly. This increase in strength would give him a much better chance at hunting bigger animals. The second reason was that in case of any danger, Xua Yan could always hide himself inside the Entropy.
The Entropy was a place where he had complete control and he could protect himself from any danger. This made him feel more confident in his decision to hunt in the forest. Xua Yan gathered his self made weapons that he was able to make from wood and stones and headed into the forest, determined to find some food for himself. He was careful and alert as he moved through the forest, always on the lookout for any potential danger. But, with the rise in his strength and the support of ntropy, Xua Yan felt like he was ready for anything that might come his way.
Xua Yan moved deeper into the forest, his senses sharp and his weapons ready. He knew that it would be a challenge, but he was confident in his abilities and he was ready to face any obstacle that might come his way. After some time of searching and looking around, he finally spots a two-headed fox-like creature. This creature had a height of around 3 feet and a length of 5 feet. It has a fox-like appearance with two heads, each with its own set of eyes, ears, snout, and teeth. Its body is covered in fur that can be red, orange, black or a mix of these colors, with a sleek and glossy appearance. It has long, powerful legs and a bushy tail for balance and communication.
He recognizes this creature as a Double Headed Fox, a level 8 body tempering beast that was capable of cultivating martial arts. The double headed fox is known for its agility and stealth, making it a formidable opponent in the wild. This information was given to him through the memories of the previous owner of his body. Xua Yan was amazed by the fact that this beast was capable of cultivating martial arts, just like humans.
He had heard about this beast before, and knew that it was not to be taken lightly. The Double Headed Fox was known for its agility and cunning, which made it a formidable opponent. But Xua Yan was confident in his own abilities, and he felt that with his level 6 strength in the body tempering stage, he could take on the challenge. The information he received from the previous owner of his body gave him an advantage, and he knew exactly what he was up against.
As he approaches the Double Headed Fox, he was on high alert. He was ready for anything that might come his way. He was prepared to defend himself if needed, but he was also aware that he could always retreat into the Entropy if the situation became too dangerous. Xua Yan was determined to complete his hunt, and he was not going to let the Double Headed Fox get away.
As he gets closer to the beast, he can feel the tension in the air. The Double Headed Fox seems to sense Xua Yan's presence and it becomes wary. Xua Yan quickly assesses the situation, and he decides to attack first. He knows that if he waits, the beast might attack first, and he might not be able to defend himself. With a fierce yell, Xua Yan charges towards the Double Headed Fox, ready to take it down.
The fighting scenario was intense and intense, with both Xua Yan and the double headed fox exchanging blows and using their respective martial arts skills to try and gain the upper hand. The double headed fox was a formidable opponent, with its two heads and agile body allowing it to attack from multiple angles at once. Xua Yan had to stay alert and use all his skills and knowledge to defend himself and eventually defeat the beast. At times, the fight seemed to be a stalemate, with neither side gaining the advantage, but eventually Xua Yan's persistence and strength paid off, and he was able to land the killing blow.
Xua Yan and the double headed fox engaged in a long and brutal fight. Despite the formidable abilities of the double headed fox, Xua Yan was able to emerge victorious in the end. However, the battle was not without consequences for Xua Yan. He sustained many injuries from the fight, including cuts and bruises, and perhaps even broken bones. Despite the severity of his injuries, Xua Yan refused to let them keep him down. Instead, he pushed himself to keep moving, driven by his determination to survive and continue his journey. Despite the injuries he sustained, Xua Yan felt a sense of pride and accomplishment in his victory over the double headed fox. With his newfound confidence, Xua Yan continued his journey deeper into the forest, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
Upon killing the double headed fox, Xua Yan decided to put its remains away inside the Entropy for safekeeping. He did this to prevent any scavengers from coming across the remains and attracting more dangerous creatures to his area. By storing the remains inside the Entropy, Xua Yan also prevented the scent of the dead creature from spreading, which could have attracted other predators to his area.
With the double headed fox taken care of, Xua Yan made his way back to his shelter, deep in the jungle. Once there, he sat down and began to focus on healing his injuries. Xua Yan had been studying the book "Essence Extraction and Pill Making" prior to the fight, and he now used his newfound knowledge to heal himself. He carefully examined his injuries, making sure to realign any displaced bones and clean and bandage any wounds. He also used various medicinal herbs and plants to help speed up the healing process.
The process was a few hours long and painful, but Xua Yan was determined to make a full recovery. He focused all of his energy on healing himself, using his knowledge and skills to do so. Over the course of several hours, he was able to recover from his injuries, and he felt stronger and more confident than ever.
After his wounds were treated and fixed, Xua Yan took the animal he had killed from Entropy and began to prepare it for food. He carefully dissected the animal, removing the bones and fat, and then minced the meat into small pieces. He then added spices and seasonings to enhance the flavor of the food. Once the food was ready, Xua Yan sat down to enjoy his meal. He savoured each bite, relishing the taste and aroma of the fresh meat. The sustenance he received from this meal allowed him to replenish his energy levels and helped him to heal faster from his wounds.
Xua Yan's experience with the spirit qi rising from his food was not new. As he savoured the food he had made from the double headed fox, he noticed a sudden surge of heat in his stomach. This heat was the result of the spirit qi that was being released from the food he had consumed. This was a clear indication that the food he had made was not just sustenance, but it was also enhancing his martial arts training by releasing a large amount of spirit qi.
This large amount of spirit qi was too much for Xua Yan to handle, that's why he started feeling pain from all over his body and felt that his body was about to explode. In order to control this pain and release this spiritual qi the only way Xua Yan has was to circulate his internal qi and train his martial arts. In order to fully concentrate and train without any distractions, Xua Yan quickly entered the Entropy. This was a crucial decision as outside of the Entropy was not safe and he could not afford to be disturbed while he was in the midst of his training. Once inside, Xua Yan immediately started his martial arts training, circulating the spirit qi inside his body as described in the book he had obtained from the Entropy.
Xua Yan was diligent in his training, circulating the spirit qi according to the instructions provided in the book. This was a challenging task as it required him to maintain focus and control the flow of spirit within his body by ignoring the pain he was getting from excessive amounts of spirit qi inside of his body. However, with his determination and perseverance, Xua Yan was able to successfully circulate the spirit qi and continued his martial arts training.
Xua Yan's training inside Entropy was rigorous and challenging. He had to train his body to withstand the intense heat and energy that was generated by the relese of spirit qi from his food. He had to be patient and persistent, as it took time and effort to cultivate the qi to reach the level of body tempering that he wanted. But despite the challenges, Xua Yan did not give up and continued to train for a long time andl he finally reached level 7 of body tempering.
Reaching level 7 of body tempering was a huge milestone for Xua Yan. It meant that he had reached a higher level of strength and abilities, making him more capable of defending himself against danger and surviving in the harsh world outside of Entropy.
