All the evil beasts in the world, I feed on demons and monsters

Chapter 4: Centennial Hunter
magic weapon!?
Ji Ran was overjoyed, especially when he saw the name. His heartbeat quickened! Could it be the one from Lion Camel Ridge?
But after reading the introduction, Ji Ran realized that he was naive.

[Yin Yang Qi Bottle (Rare Treasure)]

Magical weapon blessing·Yin and Yang Qi: luck value increased by 2 points.

Skill: Dry Flame: Within a 10x10 area, with the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle as the center, any creature making a sound will trigger a Dry Flame fire, causing 1% health damage per second for 49 seconds. (Cooling time: hours)

Skill: Yin-Yang Elixir: Each time you use "Dry Flame," you refine a bottle of Yang Elixir, instantly restoring 30% health and 100% stamina. Every forty-nine days, a bottle of Yin Elixir is generated. After consuming it for an hour and a half, it transforms into pus, dealing 5% of your health as Yin damage per second for forty-nine seconds. Can be used to smear weapons and feed Yin objects. (Killing ghosts accumulates Yin Elixir.)
Note: "The fake monkey in the Flower-Fruit Mountain, the old monster wearing a robe does not look like a human." - A failed imitation of the golden-winged Roc.

What a baby!
Although the note reads "a failed replica," that's probably only for beings like the Golden-Winged Roc. For me now, it's definitely a divine artifact!

Of course, it is only a divine weapon for me now, wearing the Jinlan cassock.

The blazing flames don't distinguish between friend and foe. Without the Jinlan cassock, you can't make any sound when you unleash it, otherwise you'll be attacked anyway.

However, that Zaoyan Yinren is definitely a good skill.

What surprised Ji Ran even more was that there were two bottles of potions in his storage compartment, [Qiongjiang (Yang)] and [Qiongjiang (Yin)]!
Ji Ran tied the Yin and Yang Qi bottle around his waist and immediately crushed the Qi dropped by the hyena demon.

【Using Qi (Fan)】

[Obtain: Animal hide, dagger]

Unfortunately, all I got were two pieces of junk.

It’s time to move on and head to the Five Elements Mountain.

In the original novel, Tang Monk was captured at Shuangcha Ridge tomorrow, then stayed at the hunter Liu Bochin's house for one night, and arrived at the Five Elements Mountain the next day.

However, this time the white horse was released by myself, so the time will probably have to be extended a little longer.

Ji Ran thought about it, picked up the tin staff not far away and prepared to move forward.

But at this moment, he paused and remembered something.

He immediately turned around and walked towards the hyena's corpse.

Ji Ran rummaged through the hyena's corpse.

Sure enough! There are equipment too!
The hyena has two pieces of equipment: [Bronze Armor (Ordinary)] and [Steel Knife (Ordinary)].

"what?"

Just when Ji Ran was about to give up, he found two plasma sacs in the hyena's arms.

[Red Snake Venom Sac (Rare Treasure)]

Effect: After being crushed, it turns into poisonous wind, attacking creatures within a fan-shaped range of 3 meters in front, causing poison damage for 5 seconds.

Features: Causes some poison damage to the user.

Note: This item is produced by General Yin's pet, the Red Snake. (Can be taken out)
Not bad.

Ji Ran's lips curled up. With this thing, he had another weapon in his hand. After all, the Jinlan cassock was immune to poison damage. This method, which originally hurt the enemy by a thousand but hurt himself by eight hundred, would not hurt him in his hands.

Ji Ran carefully put it into the space. He dared not carry such a poisonous substance with him.

Everything was settled, and Ji Ran immediately set off again.

On the way, he smeared his monk's knife with [Jingjiang (Yin)] and carefully put it into the inventory.

After applying this Yin Qiongjiang, any cut to the enemy will cause damage.

If taken directly, the 5% Yin damage per second would last for forty-nine seconds, which even an ordinary demon would not be able to withstand. However, if it was a slashing wound, the damage would not be fixed.

But that terrifying damage per second, if used to kill people, anyone who gets touched will die.

This is a powerful weapon, but it's difficult to produce. The next production will be in forty-nine days.

That night, Ji Ran did not encounter any danger.

Shuangcha Ridge itself wasn't dangerous; a family of hunters could live there for centuries. The most dangerous thing they encountered on a regular basis was the occasional tiger.

Ji Ran walked all the way until early morning, but he was extremely sleepy.

At this moment, he could sense he was on his way down the mountain. The horizon was a fiery red, a blazing sun slowly rising. The splashing red light was like a golden veil, casting golden scales all over the ground.

"Wow!"

At that moment, the jungle ahead suddenly shook, and a figure emerged from it. Ji Ran paused. It was a burly man, his open cloth coat revealing his bare chest, his muscular build revealing his surging strength.

The man had a square face, a beard, thick black eyebrows, eyes like copper bells, and held a large bow in his hand and carried a steel fork on his back.

On his back was a leopard half the height of a man, and around his waist were hung two pheasants and a gray rabbit.

"Ok?"

Seeing someone, the man was slightly startled. He looked at Ji Ran's attire and said, "A monk?"

"Meet the donor."

Ji Ran's eyes moved slightly. Such a strong hunter in this deep forest must be Liu Bochin.

In the original novel, this guy killed a giant white-browed tiger with a single fork! His fighting ability is probably on par with the little demon from last night.

"This little monk and my master have come from the Tang Dynasty in the East, heading to the Western Paradise to worship Buddha and seek scriptures. This time, I came to explore the way for my master and see if there are any evil spirits ahead."

"So you're a mage from the Tang Dynasty. How disrespectful!"

The man's face lit up with joy as he saluted, saying, "I'm Liu Bochin, also from the Tang Dynasty. I just make a living hunting here, and my family has lived here for hundreds of years."

"Master, rest assured. Over the past hundred years, only some large insects have been active in Shuangcha Ridge, but no demons or monsters have been seen."

That's because you haven't met Guanyin Bodhisattva...

Ji Ran complained in his heart, but he clasped his hands together and smiled, "I see, my master will probably take the main road into the mountains tomorrow. I believe the journey should be peaceful."

"Oh?"

Liu Boqin smiled and said, "My hut is near the main road. Why don't you go there and wait for your master?"

"it is good."

Ji Ran agreed immediately after hearing this. He had overestimated his own physical strength before.

After a fierce battle at night and walking for half the night, he was extremely tired and his legs felt like they were filled with lead.

The two walked for another quarter of an hour, and when Ji Ran was about to give up, they finally arrived at Liu Bochin's yard.

"Hurry, a distinguished guest has arrived! Roast the leopard and make pheasant soup to replenish the mage's strength!"

"okay."

At this moment, an old woman in a coarse cloth shirt was drying grain inside the door. A wealthy-looking woman was surrounded by two young children, a boy and a girl. They were wearing clothes that were full of patches and obviously didn't fit them. They were looking at Ji Ran curiously.

When they learned that he was from the Tang Dynasty, the whole family became enthusiastic.

Ji Ran did not hesitate to strike up a conversation and then sat down to chat with Liu Bochin about some interesting stories in the mountains.

Soon, the meat soup was served on the table. Ji Ran naturally had no concerns as a monk and started eating it immediately.

Liu Bochin didn't think there was anything wrong. In the original book, when Tang Monk came, he also offered him tiger meat, but he was rejected by him.

The only seasoning used by the mountain people was salt, so the leopard meat was a little dry, but the chicken soup was delicious. Ji Ran drank two large bowls.

Ji Ran looked at the green donkey and the old cow in the yard, then took out a silver ingot and said, "Donor Liu, can you sell these two animals to me?"

"My master and I have lost our mounts, so it's not very convenient for us to travel."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bochin laughed and said, "What a great addition, Master. The donkey is fine; it's in its prime, worth 3000 coins. But the old ox is already old, and I'm afraid it'll only fetch to coins even if it's pulled to the market."

"It's okay. It would be even more troublesome for you to go down the mountain. My master is the great monk of the Tang Dynasty. He has no shortage of these yellow and white things."

Ji Ran said, pointing to the two children wearing patched clothes, "Buy some cloth and make two clothes for the children."

"This……"

Liu Boqin thought for a moment and said, "Okay! Thank you, Master. I'll prepare some dry food for you two before we leave."

Ji Ran smiled, thanked him, and took a piece of leopard meat to eat.

Looking at the furs covering the walls of Liu Bochin's house, as well as the bones and weapons in the corners, some of which even shone faintly with the light of equipment, Ji Ran's mind became active.

"Donor Liu, I have a hunting knife here. How about you take a look at it?"
