In the Driving Heavens Forest.
After Kang Shin-mu left the palace, he came to the place where he had gone to behead demons. He barged in and began to hunt the demon beasts.
This time, because he had come alone, the demonic beasts did not flee towards the center of the Heavenly Exorcism Forest. Therefore, even at the edge of the Heavenly Exorcism Forest, there were many different types of demonic beasts. Most of these demonic beasts were not Earth Demons, and to Jiang Shenwu, they were not worth hunting.
So he went straight to the depths of the Driving Heavens Forest.
Now he was a True Dragon martial artist.
Although he was only at the second layer of the Dragon Ascension Realm, but to deal with fifth and sixth layer Earth Demons was basically a piece of cake. His purpose in hunting these Earth Demons was, of course, to hone his Dragon Martial Skill, and the second was to hunt more Monster Dans.
Earth Demon Demon Dans were very important and precious resources for Kang Shin-mu. Before embarking on his journey, he had to prepare enough Demon Dans.
Moreover, if he wanted to raise his cultivation level, he needed to obtain a large number of elixirs and spirit treasures. He needed to absorb the spiritual energy from elixirs and spirit treasures. Otherwise, his cultivation level would rise too slowly.
The Sky Piercing Dragon Shadow and the Sky Roaring Dragon Claw, these two Dragon Martial Skills required countless practice and training before they could be sufficiently improved.
In the Driving Heavens Forest, Kang Shin-mu constantly hunted the Earth Demons. While training his Dragon Martial Skill, he also obtained one Demon Dans after another.
Even at night, Kang Shin-mu did not stop to rest. After devouring the Earth Demon Dans, he maintained a hundred percent of his energy. The efficiency of hunting the demon beasts at night was still very high.
Occasionally, he would encounter some stronger Earth Demons that came out from the depths of the Driving Heavens Forest. For example, seventh or eighth tier Earth Demon existences. Before he was certain of victory, Kang Shin-mu would avoid these existences.
Although he had become a True Dragon martial artist, his cultivation level of the Dragon Martial Skill was still too low. He had to be careful and avoid these powerful demon beasts.
Two months passed by quickly.
In these two months, many things happened in the Jiang clan's King's Palace, the most important of which was the selection of the Patriarch.
Jiang Rong was Jiang Shenwu's uncle. On the surface, he treated Jiang Shenwu very well, but in secret, he constantly wanted to get rid of Jiang Shenwu. This middle-aged man successfully ascended to the position of Patriarch of the Jiang Clan.
The important figures of the five palaces gathered in the King's Palace, including Jiang Liuxue.
But when Jiang Liuxue arrived, she did not see the person she wanted to see, Jiang Shenwu.
Jiang Shenwu and Jiang Yuening had left a deep impression on her. Unfortunately, Jiang Shenwu had already escaped from the Grand Prince's Mansion when she arrived. Otherwise, he would have been killed on the back of the mountain.
The reason why Kang Shin-mu knew all this was because Jiang Rong had sent people to look for him in these two months.
In the Heaven Herding Forest, there had been several groups of Jiang clan's Dragon martial artists, but they were all avoided by Kang Shin-mu. From their conversations, he learned that the Jiang clan's Patriarch was Jiang Rong's.
This made his heart even colder.
In fact, he did not care about the position of Patriarch.
But Jiang Rong had schemed to kill him. This was something that Kang Shin-mu could not forgive. After all, he was Jiang Rong's nephew. For the position of Patriarch, Jiang Rong wanted to hire assassins to kill him, and had even sent people to search everywhere in order to kill him.
There would be a day when Kang Shin-mu would return to the King's Palace and make Jiang Rong regret all his actions.
As for his mother, Gu Yuerou, Kang Shin-mu was not worried.
On one hand, she was protected by Jiang Yuening and the others. On the other hand, even if it was to maintain the Patriarch's loving image, Jiang Rong could not do anything to Gu Yuerou.
What's more, there were some elders in the clan who were extremely loyal to Jiang Zizai. Whoever wanted to do anything to Gu Yuerou would have to ask these elders.
If Jiang Rong were to really act against Gu Yuerou, then his position as Patriarch would come to an end.
Two months later, Kang Shin-mu had already killed more than a thousand Earth Demons in the Heaven Herding Forest.
His food and energy were all obtained from the Earth Demon's Core. In two months, he had consumed a total of more than two hundred Earth Demon's Core. Although it was a huge consumption, it allowed him to maintain the most abundant physical strength and energy at all times.
Then, he took the remaining eight hundred Earth Demon's Monster Cores and left the Heaven Herding Forest. Finally, he headed out of the Jiang clan's territory.
He wanted to use these Monster Cores to exchange for some elixirs and other cultivation resources, and then try to raise his cultivation level. He was almost at the third layer of the Dragon Ascension Realm, just a step away.
Kang Shin-mu was afraid that there would be Jiang Rong's spies in the Jiang clan's territory, so he had to leave.
The sky was high, the dragon soaring.
Kang Shin-mu was not worried that he would not be able to survive if he left the Jiang clan. In any case, when he traveled outside, it was all about benefits. As long as he paid attention to protecting himself, there would not be too much of a problem.
And in these two months, he had finally cultivated the Void Tearing Dragon Shadow and Roaring Sky Dragon Claw to the Human level.
Human level, Earth level, Dragon level, Heaven level.
There were four stages in the cultivation of the Dragon Martial Skill. He had only reached the first stage of the two Dragon Martial Skills, but he was already as fast as the wind and had remarkable effects. As for the Iron Blood Dragon Body, he had also made some progress during this period of time, but there was still a long way to go before he reached the Dragon Level.
A black True Dragon soared high in the sky.
For the sake of hunting efficiency, in these two months, Kang Shin-mu had basically killed a large circle around the periphery of the Sky Exorcist Forest. After all, if he killed too many in one place, most of the demon beasts would flee. Moreover, he did not attempt to challenge the stronger Earth Demons, in order to prevent accidents and prioritize efficiency.
He had eight hundred Earth Demon Monster Cores on him, which was a large fortune.
After leaving the Jiang clan, Kang Shin-mu came to a relatively chaotic area. This was the border between the Jiang clan and the other two Dragon Warrior clans. The three major clans were too lazy to manage this territory, so it became a paradise for vagrants and villains.
Here, people died every day, and there were even Dragon Warriors among those who died.
Even Dragon Warriors with the inheritance of the True Dragon might not be able to survive here. This was because here, whoever had the bigger fist was the boss.
Kang Shin-mu chose this place because there was more freedom here.
This area was called "Desolate Dragon City".
And outside of Desolate Dragon City, there were many places to gain experience and adventure. To improve one's strength, this was an excellent place.
