I Can Strengthen Infinitely

The blade flashed, and two severed corpses fell to the ground, blood splattering everywhere.

Qin Yuesheng stared intently and saw that it was a demon with a human face and eagle body, its mouth teeming with hot flames, clearly ready to launch a sneak attack on him.

Having just stepped out of the Nine Provinces, Qin Yuesheng couldn’t help but become more cautious upon encountering such a monster.

The mountains here were slanting, rugged, and full of caves where things could easily be hidden.

Despite his formidable strength, Qin Yuesheng decided to activate the Golden Bell Shield for safety’s sake.

Once the Golden Bell Shield was out, coupled with the roared of the Purple Dragon, the mist in the area was immediately blown apart and dispersed.

The view in front of Qin Yuesheng was instantly broadened, seeing mountains as mountains.

Yet, this vast area was only covered by a few hundred meters, Qin Yuesheng was not satisfied, so he took a deep breath, gathering power, and blew mightily.

In an instant, the wind rose and clouds surged, the scene hundreds of miles ahead turned clear and bright, all scenery exposed in Qin Yuesheng’s eyes.

At the same time, heads started to pop out one after another from the mountain cave surfaces.

Similar to the monster killed by Qin Yuesheng earlier, these creatures all had human-like heads and faces, but their bodies were like eagles, looking quite terrifying, it would certainly be a disaster if placed in the mortal realm.

As soon as they saw Qin Yuesheng, it was as if a hornet’s nest was stirred, a large number of monster birds flew out from their habitats.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of flapping wings resounded along with indescribable shrieks, a large number of these demon birds rushed out of the caves, heading towards Qin Yuesheng.

Goo goo goo!

A myriad of birds appeared simultaneously, instantly blanketing the sky in oppressive darkness, Qin Yuesheng didn’t even blink, after facing opponents like Wu’an Monarch, these monsters no longer caught his eye.

Blazing Fire!

With a slash, flames blazed atop the sky, burning it into a bright red expanse.

Within the blaze, just brushing against some blade aura, the demon birds couldn’t bear it, falling to the ground like raindrops.

And at the spot where the blade aura was most concentrated, its power was the strongest, demon birds were incinerated one by one, leaving no trace.

Within merely two breaths, tens of thousands of demon birds all perished under Qin Yuesheng’s blade, the sky returned to normal.

The mountains fell silent.

Without a flicker of emotion, Qin Yuesheng continued on his journey, but suddenly, sounds emanated from the mountain ahead.

"The human-faced owls are gone! It’s the Immortal!"

"Hush, be quiet."

Looking in the direction of the voices, Qin Yuesheng saw three people standing outside a cave, an old man, a young man, and a middle-aged man, watching him in the air with surprise.

These three appeared like ordinary folk, naturally Qin Yuesheng walked over immediately to inquire about the situation.

However, upon seeing Qin Yuesheng, the three seemed extremely terrified, hurriedly prostrating on the ground, not daring to look up.

"Why are you three here, aren’t you afraid these demon birds might harm you?" Qin Yuesheng asked.

"Immortal, my grandson was captured by the human-faced owls. I searched the whole village, but no one was willing to help, so I brought my son to Thunder Owl Mountain." The old man lying on the ground raised his head and said.

Qin Yuesheng glanced at the other two, beside the young boy, the others wore cloaks made of feathers and were smeared with a dark mud-like substance.

The odor of this mud was somewhat like that of those demon birds, Qin Yuesheng immediately understood, this should be the old man’s way to conceal their scent and avoid being detected by the demon birds.

The three successfully converging and avoiding being eaten by demon birds indeed counts as great fortune.

"Where do you three reside? I happen to need a temporary place too, I can take you out with me." Qin Yuesheng said.

"Thank you, Immortal, thank you, Immortal." The three quickly expressed gratitude, and Qin Yuesheng took out a rope from his Sumeru bag, threw it to the three, instructing them to tie it tightly around their waists, and with a forceful pull, lifted them away from there.

...

Thunder Owl Mountain lies to the east of Forgotten Sword Village, a natural barrier, constantly draped in mist and echoed with rolling thunder, inhabited by many human-faced owls, hence its name.

The monsters within Thunder Owl Mountain have always been a major problem for Forgotten Sword Village, now and then, human-faced owls fly out of Thunder Owl Mountain, hunting and snatching people outside for food.

If not for the experts residing in Forgotten Sword Village, this village might have vanished from history long ago.

Forgotten Sword Village stands on a hillock, surrounded by wooden walls, its layout beautifully arranged and tidy, with a treasured sword hanging above the doors of every household, rather intriguing.

Qin Yuesheng descended at the village gate with the three of them, and through their exchange along the way, he learned much information, including the names of the three.

Forgotten Sword Village comprises three main clans - Huang, Xu, and Guo, almost all villagers belong to these surnames.

The old man is called Huang Ye, his son Huang Yuan, and grandson Huang Pei, they are part of a large family within Forgotten Sword Village.
