Therefore, the Heaven ranking was given to the desolate beast hunting, and the corresponding rewards were higher!
“Haha, you must be new here. I see you have a bow on your back, oh? It’s even a good bow. It’s made by the Zhang family!” Yi Yun had casually chatted up a warrior, but that person had great judgment and could tell the quality of Yi Yun’s bow’s at a glance.
“Practice well. If you practice your bow and arrow well, it will be a great advantage on the Heaven ranking! Senior Li Xiao’s archery skills are superb! I have seen Li Xiao use an arrow the thickness of a thumb to rip apart an Armored Rhinoceros with my own eyes!”
The cultivator was about fifteen years old. From the way he described the scene excitedly, one would think that all that glory belonged to him.
It also made Yi Yun feel a surge of emotions.
An Armored Rhinoceros was famous among desolate beasts for its defense. Li Xiao used one arrow, not only to kill it, but to rip it apart!
His archery skills were terrifying!
A warrior’s accuracy at shooting an arrow was not the most important thing. With a warrior’s eyesight and mental prowess, shooting an arrow accurately was not difficult!
The difficult part was to inject within the bow and arrow Yuan Qi and strength!
The really terrifying archers did not pierce a willow leaf with an arrow from a distance of a hundred paces, but crumbled a small hill from a hundred paces away!
In fact, those who were good at bows were usually very strong warriors. Their primary weapons were not bows, but either a sword, saber or spear, etc. Bows were just one of their weapons. Their melee attacks were equally strong and their bodies had terrifying strength.
Yi Yun knew that Li Xiao was also within the top ten of the Earth rankings!
In ancient myths, there was the legend of Hou Yi shooting down the Sun. And the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom’s cornerstone treasured bow was named the Star Shooting Bow.
When someone’s archery skills reached a certain divine level, they could shoot down the stars and the Sun! Although there were some elements of exaggeration, it also illustrated the power of the bow and arrow.
For the current Yi Yun, the bow and arrow was a great advantage for him against desolate beasts. The hunting speed of a bow and arrow was naturally something melee weapons could not compete with.
Seeing Li Xiao’s arrow, what else could Yi Yun say? Practice!
In less than a year’s time, Yi Yun wanted to use his bow and his saber to obtain a spot on the Heaven and Earth rankings!
To enter the top 1000 in a year meant he was one of the human pinnacles, and would gain the attention of the Divine Kingdom’s various factions! But Yi Yun’s goal was more than that!
…
The Tai Ah Herb Mountain stretched out endlessly. There were countless of wonders throughout it, with unknown number of treasures waiting to be discovered!
At this time, the Sun was hanging in the sky. A youth dressed in linen was travelling through the mountain as agile as a cheetah.
He held a black long bow by his shoulder, and a quiver of arrows on his back. The quiver was about the size of an adult’s waist, and in it was a bundle of shining arrows!
Although he had a lot of luggage, it did not impede the youth. The steep mountains and dense foliage was powerless against the youth.
“Peng! Peng!”
The youth’s footsteps were heavy. Every foot on the ground was like a ten thousand pound sledge hammer slamming into the ground.
If he landed on a rock, the rock would explode!
