It was afraid of that punch earlier.
“Roar—”
With a stubborn roar, the tiger turned around and ran.
Han Muye flexed his fists and did not chase after it.
He looked at the few people carefully surrounding him.
Their physiques were strong, but they had never cultivated any cultivation techniques. They had not even cultivated any martial arts techniques.
Otherwise, after cultivating some body tempering techniques, they would not be chased by this ferocious tiger and have nowhere to escape.
“My, my lord, you’re from outside the Heavenly Crane Region, right?”
A middle-aged man holding a broken bow took a few steps forward and sized up Han Muye’s robe, excitement flashing across his face.
Heavenly Crane Region? Han Muye thought.
This place is called the Heavenly Crane Region?
He nodded and said, “I came from the outer realm. Can you tell me about the situation here?”
Hearing Han Muye say that he was indeed from the outer realm, the middle-aged man and the people behind him were overjoyed.
They started talking all at once and began to introduce this realm.
Their accent was a little strange, but Han Muye could understand them.
This was the Heavenly Crane Region, a secret place belonging to the Cloud Crane Palace.
This was a place reserved for the trial disciples of the Cloud Crane Palace.
However, contrary to Han Muye’s expectations, this place did not prohibit the power of spiritual energy at the beginning.
It was only after his spiritual qi was exhausted that this happened.
Because the spiritual qi was exhausted, the power of heaven and earth could not be sustained. The Great Dao in this realm blocked the power of spiritual qi.
Otherwise, a great cultivator with spiritual energy could kill all the living beings in this world.
“Originally, the lords of the Cloud Crane Palace would come once every 10 years.
“But they stopped coming thousands of years ago.
“Since they stopped coming, life in the Heavenly Crane Region became unsustainable. Some of the people died, and some became demons.”
The middle-aged man who spoke looked terrified. He turned to look at the mountains in the distance and said in a low voice, “The Heavenly Crane people live in the Heavenly Crane Ridge 3,000 miles away. They visit the Heavenly Crane Region once every three years.
“Actually, the purpose of their visit is to eat people.”
A young man gritted his teeth, his shoulders trembling.
The humans of the Heavenly Crane Region used to be the providers.
Over thousands of years, the human population had grown in the region.
The Heavenly Cranes patrolled once every three years. Other than a few large cities that could resist them a little by relying on the methods left behind in the past, the humans in other places were devoured by the Heavenly Cranes.
Han Muye was not interested in the large cities, but he was very interested in the Heavenly Cranes that these people were talking about.
Back then, the people from the Cloud Crane Palace came to take the blood essence from the top of the Heavenly Cranes’ heads.
The Heavenly Crane’s blood essence could increase one’s cultivation speed and had the effect of fusing various bloodline powers.
In other words, by fusing the Heavenly Crane’s blood essence into other bloodlines, one could refine a different bloodline.
To the demons, the purity of their bloodline was very important.
The Heavenly Crane’s blood essence could neutralize all bloodlines.
In Han Muye’s opinion, this was a rare treasure in the world.
To the demon race, it was comparable to the Cloud Transforming Golden Lotus.
If he could obtain such a treasure, wouldn’t it be easier for his physical cultivation to increase?
With his deep cultivation in the Confucian Dao and more and more sword intent gathered, Han Muye already felt that his physical strength could not keep up.
The ancient Bull Strength Technique that he cultivated back then also needed to be deduced later.
The best way was to borrow the cultivation method of the demon race and refine his bloodline to increase his physical cultivation.
The Heaven Crane’s blood essence would be useful to him.
Han Muye did not stay in the forest for long and headed straight for Heavenly Crane Ridge.
If he had flown thousands of miles, it would not take long to reach.
However, he had to journey on foot to the Heavenly Crane Region, which took a lot of time.
A hundred miles later, Han Muye came upon a village.
He didn’t go in, but he saw something interesting.
A 50-foot-long black-armored fish demon was rolling about in the mud pond in front of the village.
Then the villagers removed the dam from the mud pond.
The fish demon struggled and mud splattered everywhere.
This fish demon could not use its demonic qi in the Heavenly Crane Region, and it had not cultivated to the point of transforming. It had difficulty trying to escape.
Without water, the fish demon could only flop and swing its tail, making fierce “wuwu” sounds to prevent the villagers from approaching. It was actually completely helpless.
There were many cultivators and fish demons in this space.
It was fine if there was water, but if there was no water, these fish demons would probably die.
Thinking of this, Han Muye’s expression changed.
He left quietly and found a hundred-foot black fish in the wilderness.
His punch landed on the black fish’s head, killing it instantly.
The moment the black fish died, indescribable powers interacted in the void.
This was the Heavenly Dao devouring the power of the soul and demonic qi!
This world would absorb the power of outsiders.
After killing this black-armored fish demon, Han Muye could feel a trace of spiritual energy loosening.
He could use a little of the spiritual energy in his dantian.
This was the release of the Heavenly Dao.
He was motivated to hunt other outsiders and let the power in their bodies nourish the world.
The Heavenly Crane Region’s supply had been cut off for countless years, and its power had long been exhausted.
Now, this Heavenly Dao urgently needed strength to replenish itself.
Looking up at the sky, Han Muye turned around and headed for Heavenly Crane Ridge.
Along the way, if he encountered black-armored fish demons, he would attack without hesitation.
By the time he was a thousand miles away, he had killed dozens of black-armored fish demons. With his own strength, he could use 10 flashes of sword qi. He was at the third level of Qi Condensation.
This power was not much, but it was already domineering in this world.
Moving forward, Han Muye saw the corpse of a sect elite.
It was a sword wound.
This cultivator from Daoism might be very good at spells.
However, in this world where he could not use the power of spells, he was really helpless in front of a sword cultivator.
