Chapter 23: Xu Yuan's First Battle
🕑 Added 2025-02-28 04:02:22 +0000 UTC
Xu Yuan held the Tianyuan brush and sketched in the air.
Every stroke of the brush creates a winding stream of water swirling in the air.
The streams of water entangled like water dragons, blocking the route of the three-headed flame lion.
“roar!”
The largest fire lion did not slow down at all, but instead accelerated its charge. The flames on its body became more violent, and there were strands of golden light shining in the red flames.
Xu Yuan was not in a hurry and continued to retreat without stopping. The Tianyuan Brush kept sketching in the air.
With a wave of his right hand, a water dragon rushed towards the fire lion.
Fight and retreat at the same time.
The water was evaporated by the raging flames, but water is ultimately extinguishing fire. Under Xu Yuan’s pull, the flames of the Flame Lion were obviously weakened a lot.
The Tianyuan Brush drew in the air, and water dragons coiled and circled, constantly colliding with the fire lions.
The three-headed flame lions were completely enraged, their arrogance instantly increased several times, and they suddenly charged forward, encircling Xu Yuan from three directions.
Xu Yuan held the Tianyuan brush in his right hand and swung it violently, and a large amount of ink splashed in front of him.
The ink fell on the ground, and thick grass grew like vines, entangling the three-headed flame lion.
Although it only struggled slightly, the Flame Lion broke free from the vines after being burned by the flames, but its charge rhythm was interrupted.
Xu Yuan retreated into the distance again.
After being pulled many times, the Flame Lion seemed to lose its patience, as if it had made up its mind, and turned around and left.
At this moment, a ray of light burst out from Xu Yuan’s body, in the shape of a spear, and merged into the Tianyuan Brush in his hand.
The hairs on the tip of the Tianyuan Brush seemed to turn into sharp metals in an instant, and at the same time they spread and lengthened, like extended metal spears.
The metal hair on the tip of the brush instantly grew longer and rushed towards the smallest of the three fire lions.
Puff, puff.
The sharp tip of the spear pierced into the skin of the flame lion.
However, after all, the distance between them was nearly ten meters. Even if Xu Yuan controlled the power of the gold element to burst out as fast as possible, it was still unable to penetrate the little flame lion at such a long distance.
However, a large amount of fire elemental power quickly poured in along the metal spears.
Even more, with the help of the tip of the metal spear, the fire element mobilized by Xu Yuan instantly assimilated the flames on the surface of the flame lion, and a violent explosion occurred instantly after the fusion.
Boom!
A loud noise echoed throughout the primitive forest.
Xu Yuan stopped teasing and rushed out instantly, rushing towards the largest fire lion.
Seeing Xu Yuan severely injure his companion with a backhand and still dare to rush forward, the six-hundred-year-old flame lion roared, raised its right paw, and golden flames flowed on its huge lion’s paw.
The shape of the Tianyuan Brush in Xu Yuan’s hand has changed and turned into the Tianyuan Spear.
The spear was pointed directly at the oldest flame lion.
Since the three flame lions retreated separately, it would be too late to return for support at this moment. Even if Xu Yuan stabbed straight forward, he could change his moves to block the attack after the collision.
Therefore, this shot gathered all of Xu Yuan’s strength.
The five elements merged at the tip of the spear, and all of Xu Yuan’s energy and spirit were integrated into it at this moment.
At this moment, if you are in the surrounding space, you can find that the surrounding world seems to be affected by him, as if the overall situation of the surrounding world has all belonged to Xu Yuan.
This shot penetrates everything.
Phew.
The spear pierced through the lion’s paw, and then the five elements of the spear tip exploded, and at the same time, Xu Yuan controlled it to stab towards the fire lion.
Puff, puff, puff, puff!
The five elements of spear light pierced into the flame lion’s body one after another.
Bang!
The Flame Lion fell heavily to the ground.
Xu Yuan didn’t even have time to finish off the opponent, and he didn’t even have time to draw out his Tianyuan Spear and turn around to block.
The Tianyuan Spear was still stuck in the paw of the Flame Lion. Xu Yuan directly released it, holding the Five Elements Spear Spirit in his hand horizontally in front of him. The power of the earth element covered the spear. Xu Yuan’s momentum was no longer an unstoppable feeling, but an extremely heavy and sharp spear in his hand.
Boom!
After the dull blow, Xu Yuan flew backwards, tumbling two and a half times in the air before landing steadily.
Xu Yuan’s eyes turned fierce.
With only this last powerful fire lion left, he naturally wouldn’t bother with anything else.
Holding the Five Elements Spear Spirit, he calmed his surging blood and then stepped forward.
The mad fire lion ignored the consequences and fought with Xu Yuan with the last flame burning.
The result of this battle was Xu Yuan’s victory and the three fire lions died.
Xu Yuan pulled out the Tianyuan Spear that was inserted in the palm of the strongest fire lion. A red light from each of the three fire lions’ bodies floated towards Xu Yuan, and after a moment, all of them merged into his body.
The rule of the Soul Ascension Platform is that one tenth of the years of cultivation of the soul beast killed will be integrated into the body of the soul master who killed the soul beast, and then the years will be divided equally according to the number of soul rings of the soul master.
Xu Yuan only has one soul ring, so all these energies are integrated into his first soul ring.
One is two hundred years, one is five hundred years, and one is six hundred years.
The spiritual power provided to Xu Yuan by these three flame lions is comparable to that of a thousand-year-old soul beast, which has increased the cultivation level of his first soul ring by more than 130 years!
In just less than half an hour of fighting, Xu Yuan upgraded his first spirit ring by more than one hundred and thirty years.
The significance of the Spirit Ascension Platform to soul masters is evident.
Of course, Xu Yuan’s hunting efficiency is not something that ordinary soul masters can replicate.
After all, a soul master who can easily hunt down these three flame lions must be at least a three-ring soul master. If the three soul rings are evenly distributed, one soul ring can only be improved for forty years at most.
The difference is even greater in comparison.
This battle lasted for quite a long time, mainly because Xu Yuan sought stability and adopted a tactic of attrition in the early and middle stages.
If he were to engage in a strong confrontation using the Tianyuan Spear, he would be able to resolve the battle quickly.
But the result will definitely not be better than it is now.
Needless to say, the soul power consumed is almost 60% of the elemental power mobilized by the Tianyuan Brush form is consumed by the external heaven and earth energy, while the battle in the Tianyuan Spear state really consumes his soul power. 60%, this is also the result of Xu Yuan’s development of the Tianyuan Brush form, which is the best ratio without affecting his basic control over the elemental power.
In addition to the consumption of soul power, Xu Yuan estimated that he would suffer some injuries.
“Let’s get out of here first.”
Xu Yuan quickly left the place and found a safe place to recover.
In this battle, Xu Yuan gained a lot.
This was also the first real battle in his life.
Thrilling and exciting.
At the same time, it is so exciting.
Although Xu Yuan was very calm and steady throughout the whole process, whether it was the strife in the early and middle stages or the decisiveness after finding the opportunity, he was so calm and steady, but his heart was always hot.
Outside world.
Xu Shengqun couldn’t stop smiling.
“Xiao Yuan is a good candidate for fighting.”
Due to his young age, Xu Shengqun had not provided adequate practical training to Xu Yuan in the past year, but Xu Yuan’s performance just now surprised him.
After killing the three fire lions, he quickly moved away from the battlefield and found a safer place to rest, which also made him satisfied.
However, what Xu Yuan did next made the smile on his face freeze.
