Chapter 195 Breakthrough in Blood Refining
Soon, a blood refining pill was absorbed by Xu Gu'an.

Then the second, and the third were sent into his mouth continuously.

The quality of these blood refining pills is quite high, and they have been kept by Xu Gu'an until now, only for today's first blood refining.

This blood-refining pill is similar to the bone-forging pill before, if you take too much on the same day, the efficacy will continue to decrease.

Ten pills is basically the upper limit of daily consumption of blood refining pills.

Therefore, if the first blood refinement is to be successful and the effect is good, the quality of these ten blood refinement pills must not be poor.

For others, it's about hitting the ground running the first time.

If there were ten defective blood refinement pills, the success rate of this first breakthrough in blood refinement would naturally be greatly reduced.

Of course, Xu Gu'an was not very worried about the success of the first blood refinement.

He has advanced the blood refining method to the proficient level in advance, and the success rate of this alone is much higher than other breakthroughs.

In addition, his current personal aptitude is not too weak, and he has prepared ten top-grade blood refining pills. For him, there is basically no possibility of failure.

After eating all the ten blood refining pills, Xu Gu'an was already steaming, especially in this cold winter.

After a long time, Xu Gu'an finished his practice, and suddenly opened his mouth to spit out a stream of hot air.

The temperature of the body surface then returned to normal.

He reached the Blood Refining Realm as he wished, without any accidents or twists and turns.

Xu Gu'an pulled out the black knife, and the next moment, bright red blood appeared on the blade. This time, it was like a wave of water, which was very clear.

Xu Guan flicked his wrist, and the black knife drew an arc in front of him.

The attached red light flashed, and there was a bang on the rock in front of him, and a large piece of debris flew, and there was a knife mark [-] centimeters wide and several meters long on it.

The knife marks are extremely deep, and there are extended crack marks on the edge, which are densely packed, which are all caused by the boiling blood on the blade.

Compared with before, after completing the first blood refinement, the strength of blood on Xu Guan's body was much higher.

And attached to the knife, the destructive power of his knife has also been greatly enhanced.

"Not bad!" Xu Gu'an was very satisfied, looking at the bright red blood that was still rising from the black knife, he reckoned that becoming an official blood refiner would greatly improve his strength.

"It's time to collect debts." Xu Guan narrowed his eyes and said to himself.

In a small lake, a few sand beasts are drinking water, while a group of game hunters are lighting a fire and eating meat to keep warm.

They have discovered this small lake for some time, and it is a major source of water for them these days.

Come back every once in a while to replenish some water resources.

"Recently, this area is a bit uneven."

"Indeed, there are more and more strange corpses, and there are many corpses of colleagues and gold diggers, which can be seen from time to time, which is scary."

"Is someone rectifying this area and building a large gathering place?"

"No, I heard that those cultists have been too noisy recently, and they may have made all of this."

"Why are there these lunatics everywhere?"

"After the target is obtained this time, we will change the place to avoid problems."

"agree."

This group of safari has a very keen sense of danger, otherwise they would not have survived in the desert for such a long time.

A gust of cold wind hit, flickering the fire.

In the dark night, a black shadow appeared on the side of the hill, watching the group of safari by the water source.

"Brother, look at that!"

The safari people soon noticed the appearance of the black shadow, put down the pieces of meat one after another, and got up with weapons in hand.

The black shadow did not deliberately hide himself, and approached the group of safari.

"Who?!" Hedges shouted.

He was tall and tall, wearing a plate armor, with an iron lump on his head, like a homemade helmet, but it was not good-looking, very rough.

He is also the boss of this safari team, and he sensed that this black shadow came from some kind.

One person took out a piece of firewood from the fire and used it as a torch to reach forward.

The firelight quickly illuminated the approaching black figure. It was a young man in armor with a tall and slender figure and a stern expression.

It was Xu Gu'an who came here.

"It's you!" Hedges and several other safari quickly recognized Xu Gu'an.

This is also a few days ago.

They met Xu Gu'an in the desert, and seeing him alone, looking like he was in distress, they decided to add insult to injury.

Trying to hijack Xu Gu'an, even if Xu Gu'an has nothing on him, they can take him away, take him to some human gathering places, and traffic people.

A guy like Xu Gu'an, who is young, powerful, and has a good-looking skin, is a sought-after slave wherever he goes.

It's a pity that they still underestimated Xu Gu'an, and he escaped in the end.

"Hey, I delivered it myself!" Hedges sneered immediately.

Xu Guan was speechless, and his steps gradually accelerated.

Previously, he had experienced repeated battles with wild beasts in the desert, and his energy and blood had been consumed too much. In addition, there were several blood refiners in this group of safari, so his strength was considered very strong.

Being hunted down that day, he naturally wouldn't just let it go.

Now that he has also become a blood refiner, he happened to take this group of people to the test.

As he approached, he drew out the black knife.

Qi and blood immediately ignited on the black knife, swimming on the blade like water waves.

"Huh? A blood refiner." Hedges frowned slightly.

When he met him for the first time before, he remembered that Xu Gu'an was not a blood refiner, and it was only a few days later
Could it be that the kid didn't use all his strength to hide something?

"Hmph, so what if you are a blood refiner!"

Hedges was not timid because of this, not only was he a blood refiner in his team, but there were many other same blood refiners.

There is really no need to be afraid of Xu Gu'an alone.

I saw that he also drew out the machete, and the blade was also ignited with blood.

The remaining four hunters also ignited blood on their weapons, and looked at Xu Gu An with a bit of grim smile on their faces. They were also not afraid of Xu Gu An alone.

"Try to catch them alive, don't cut off your limbs, or you won't be able to sell them at a good price." Hedges sneered.

"Hey, no problem, big brother!" A blood refiner in the hunting team responded.

At this moment, Xu Gu'an stepped on his foot, and immediately launched the Overlord Step, rushing forward with unparalleled power.

The face of the blood refiner who had just opened his mouth froze, and his body was a little stiff, because he was shocked by Xu Gu'an's power.

Xu Gu'an slashed out with a knife, and the red glow of Qi and blood flashed in the air.

The blood refiner had no chance to dodge, so he could only meet him with a single blow.

The next moment, with a sharp crisp sound, under the horrified face of the blood refiner, Xu Gu'an cut off the opponent's blade, and at the same time cut off the opponent's head!
The blood splashed all over the ground and splashed on the bodies of the other hunters.

"How is it possible!" Everyone was shocked, one of them died just like that!

The way they look at Xu Gu'an has completely changed.

I thought they had a large number of people, but Xu Gu'an came here alone, so it's not just arbitrariness.

But now I understand that they were thinking too simply.

Xu Gu'an turned his blade and slashed at another hunter again.

The opponent's same knife destroyed people.

Xu Gu'an's tyrannical power erupted, combined with the enhanced destructive power attached to the blood refiner's qi and blood, and the powerful blessing of the Lanpin knife technique.

Ordinary weapons can't hold the black knife in his hand, even if the opponent is the same blood refiner, it won't help if he has blood protection!
"Ah!" Hedges roared, the blood on the blade surged like a bright red raging fire.

He slashed at Xu Gu'an with all his strength, he was a little flustered, and tried to kill him with one blow.

Xu Guan paused, his face still calm and calm, and he easily avoided Hedges's frontal knife by turning sideways.

Only the raging blood left some scratches and messy marks on his armor.

Hedges secretly thought that he was about to suffer, and without thinking, he quickly raised his long knife to block the door.

Faced with Xu Gu'an's sharp knife strike.

clang!
This time, Hedges's weapon was not broken, and his knife also had a green quality, so it was not so easy to be destroyed.

The qi and blood on the blades of both sides entangled and wiped out each other.

The strength of Hedges is also considered to be extremely outstanding among the group of blood refiners, otherwise it would not be his turn to lead this safari team.

But even so, he was still hard to match against Xu Gu'an.

Xu Gu'an's current strength is not something he can compete with.

Although the green machete in his hand was not broken, his hands holding the knife still felt a sharp pain in his mouth. Even if he gritted his teeth, he couldn't stop his figure from staggering back.

Xu Gu'an stood in front of him, and all the subtleties of Lanpin's saber technique were displayed, making people dazzled.

Hedges only parried for a few rounds before Xu Gu'an chopped him down several times.

The plate armor is extremely thick, covering more than [-]% of the body area, but Xu Gu'an can still cause damage in the gaps in the plate armor.

Had it not been for Hedges desperately protecting his head and neck and other vital points with a knife, he would have been unable to hold on.

Even so, he is having a hard time now, asking for help from his surrounding companions.

"Come and help me!"

Although the other safari around were a little flustered, they also knew that once Hedges died, they were also in danger.

Immediately, he had the courage to raise his knife and kill Xu Gu'an.

Xu Gu'an retracted his knife, stepped back a few steps, and glanced at one of the hunters beside him.

The hunter couldn't help but tremble when he saw Xu Gu'an's gaze.

The next moment, the red light of the saber streaked across his throat, he was just stretching his tendons and strengthening his body, and he couldn't resist at all.

Covering his throat could not stop the wound from bleeding, it was difficult to breathe, and he couldn't even utter a scream.

Xu Gu'an kicked out again, kicking the opponent's body towards the other hunters, blocking their attack.

Xu Gu'an's gaze shifted immediately and fell on another person.

"No!" The man immediately turned pale.

Except for their elder brother Heggis, the people who were targeted by Xu Gu'an just now can't escape death!
The next moment, he saw a red knife light falling, and his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness.

That is to say, the same blood refiner can keep up with Xu Gu'an's offensive a little bit, and the rest of them don't even have a chance to react to Xu Gu'an's revenge.

Soon, Xu Gu'an cut down these hunters one after another with his extraordinary knife skills.

It has to be said that Xu Gu'an, who became a blood refiner, has increased his strength too much.

It's so easy to fight like this.

In a short while, this originally strong team of hunters was quickly defeated by Xu Gu'an alone.

There were 17 people on the other side, five blood refiners, and the rest were all body refiners of Yijin level, and none of them escaped from Xu Gu'an's knife.

Soon, there were a pile of corpses left on the ground, and several seriously injured survivors, including the leader Hedges.

Xu Gu'an put away the opponent's green machete, and searched for the supplies of the safari team.

It has to be said that this group of people did collect a lot of money by plundering in the desert.

The collection of gold beads is enough for a small box, and if it is converted into gold coins, there are probably hundreds of them.

In addition to other materials, including dozens of blood refining pills, they are probably needed for the daily training of the few blood refiners in the team.

It's just that the quality is average, just some low-grade blood refining pills.

Of course, this is a blood refining pill that is in short supply in the market after all, even if the quality is still very precious.

After counting the other party's supplies, Xu Gu'an looked at the few people who were alive,

"Forgive me." Hedges begged helplessly.

Xu Guan squatted down, grabbed the other person's hair, made him look up, and said slowly: "Tell me something."

After a while, Xu Gu'an took away a sand beast full of supplies.

From this group of safari teams, he finally learned the general situation of this desert.

Including where is the source of water, where are the gathering places of human beings, and where are the haunts of ferocious beasts that cannot be approached.

With the bottom line in mind, the journey will be easier in the future, and you don't have to rush around blindly with black eyes.

Sitting on the back of the sand beast, Xu Gu'an immediately felt a lot more comfortable with this means of transportation.

Walking through the desert on foot is simply a torture in his opinion, and these days he has also deeply realized the importance of sand beasts.

A few days later, Xu Gu'an saw a group of buildings in the desert from afar.

Mostly tents or some stone huts.

This is a human gathering place not located in an oasis, usually small in scale, and usually around a water source or an oasis.

The reason why they don't occupy the oasis is most likely because that oasis is so dangerous, and their strength is not enough to support them to occupy it for a long time and fight against those fierce beasts.

"It seems that those guys are not talking nonsense."

The information obtained by Xu Gu'an is quite accurate, maybe after sleeping out for so long, he can finally have a place to stay for one night.

It's just that when Xu Gu'an observed for a while, he felt that there was something wrong with the small gathering place of the human race.

It was too quiet, and I watched from a distance for a while without seeing a single figure.

No matter what, there shouldn't even be any patrolling people.

Thinking in this way, Xu Gu'an observed for a while, but found no other movement, and then stepped closer.

The cold wind blows up large expanses of yellow sand, making the entire gathering place look dim.

When Xu Gu'an approached this gathering place, his nostrils fluttered, and he vaguely smelled a bloody smell blowing in the wind.

This made him more alert.

Walking to the outermost tent, Xu Gu'an saw a dry dark red in the sand on the ground.

Even the tent was stained with obvious dried blood.

It was quiet all around, but Xu Gu'an was able to conclude that there must have been a big change here, something happened.
