After a few hours, Bai Yang had already ventured deep into the forest at the back of the mountain.
As the sky grew darker, the faint growls of wild beasts could be heard, and the wind rustled the leaves, creating a rather eerie atmosphere.
However, Bai Yang was not the least bit afraid. He kept his ears alert, and finally, when he heard the sound of flowing water, he leaped towards the source of the water.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the surroundings to become clearer. Not far ahead, a massive waterfall cascaded down, resembling a white water sword piercing through heaven and earth.
Bai Yang stepped on the green stones and walked to the lake below the waterfall. He buried his head in the water and drank deeply, then took off his outer clothes and entered the lake to wash his body.
At this moment, some black wolves came to the lake, drawn by the sound. They discovered Bai Yang in the water and began to growl excitedly, their saliva dripping from their fangs, looking extremely ferocious.
Bai Yang emerged from the water, his eyes scanning the area. Seeing the black wolves on the shore, a look of excitement appeared on his face. He leaped onto the shore, bare-chested, and began to fight the black wolves with his bare fists!
His current strength had reached the middle stage of the Seventh Level of Battle Qi, having experienced a minor breakthrough, which was an improvement over his previous fight with Murong Zhen. However, he still lacked combat experience and did not know any martial techniques.
Martial techniques are skills that can multiply one's strength. Most martial techniques require personal enlightenment, such as sudden realization from cultivation methods, which are often paired with one's cultivation method, making the martial technique very powerful.
In addition to these, there are also martial techniques that can be cultivated independently, but their quality is never low. To be recorded and taught to the masses, they must at least be of the High Yellow Rank.
Bai Yang had no martial techniques and little combat experience, so these not-so-strong black wolves naturally became his best training partners.
Bai Yang leaped into the pack of black wolves, stepping on the back of one, his fists whistling through the air as he struck the wolf's ear.
With a loud bang, the full power of the Seventh Level of Battle Qi erupted, and the black wolf's eyes burst, being killed by Bai Yang's punch!
However, after delivering this punch, Bai Yang himself was not in good shape. This style of fighting had no technique, relying purely on brute force, and the backlash was strong, causing his fists to tremble slightly.
The other black wolves, seeing their companion die, did not retreat but were instead roused to greater ferocity, howling and charging forward.
"Indeed, the best training comes from battle," Bai Yang dodged a black wolf's charge, a sudden realization dawning on him. "These black wolves seem to understand the art of coordinated attacks. In just a moment, I am already struggling to defend and dodge! But I am also benefiting greatly!"
With a thought, Bai Yang turned and grabbed the black wolf that had charged at him, using his arms to lift it like a tiger, his bones cracking as he lifted the wolf and snapped its spine!
The black wolf's back was incredibly strong, almost like iron. Bai Yang's sudden burst of strength, which allowed him to break the wolf's spine, was a testament to his formidable power!
However, brute force could not last long. After killing two black wolves, Bai Yang was already slightly out of breath. The beasts seemed to have some intelligence, sensing Bai Yang's fatigue, and they bared their fangs, taking cautious steps to surround him.
"Indeed!" This discovery made Bai Yang's eyes light up. He had no sense of danger, "These beasts truly understand the art of coordinated attacks!"
The art of coordinated attacks emphasizes默契配合 with companions to unleash powerful strength, but it also requires individual techniques for applying force. This was precisely what Bai Yang lacked, so he carefully observed every movement of the black wolves. Unconsciously, his eyes began to emit a faint glow, and under this glow, the movements of the black wolves seemed to slow down. Several golden lines appeared in the air, making the next move of the black wolves clear to Bai Yang!
Not only that, the golden lines also appeared on the bodies of the black wolves, fluctuating with their muscle movements, revealing their force application characteristics.
At this moment, these black wolves were like living books in Bai Yang's eyes, teaching him combat experience!
Needless to say, this was another use of his bloodline power.
As Bai Yang felt this strange change, the golden lines on a black wolf's body slowly moved, forming an arc for an attack. Bai Yang raised his eyebrows, knowing that the black wolf was preparing to attack. He took a step, his body steady, his muscles twitching, learning the black wolf's force application technique.
Swoosh!
The black wolf, unable to contain itself, took advantage of the moment when Bai Yang's vision was deliberately focused on a blind spot and charged forward.
Although the black wolf had intelligence, it could not guess that Bai Yang had already seen through its attack route. Bai Yang easily avoided the charge, crouched down, and leaped onto the back of another black wolf.
He learned the black wolf's force application method, channeling his strength throughout his body, and chopped down with a palm, concentrating his power into a single point. The power was several times stronger than before, with two faint explosions, breaking the black wolf's neck and causing it to fall to the ground, limp and lifeless.
Bai Yang then rolled, grabbing the hind leg of another black wolf. The black wolf, sensing something wrong, howled and tried to break free with brute force.
Bai Yang narrowed his eyes: "Beast, you want to escape?"
Whether it understood his words or not, the black wolf turned its head, baring its fangs more viciously, and its hind legs struggled to break free from Bai Yang's grip.
The remaining two black wolves also charged to rescue their companion.
Their attack routes appeared as golden lines in Bai Yang's eyes, and he dodged the two black wolves, his right hand darting out to grab the other hind leg of the black wolf in front of him. With a fierce effort, he spun the wolf in the air and slammed it to the ground!
With a loud bang, the black wolf's body sank into the ground, blood seeping from its mouth and nose, its fate unknown.
The other two black wolves, seeing this, hesitated for a moment, looked at each other, and then ran away without looking back.
The black wolves, having intelligence, naturally knew fear. After Bai Yang killed several of their companions, they realized they could not match his strength and fled without hesitation.
Bai Yang did not chase them, picked up his clothes, and reflected on the experience gained from the battle.
"These black wolves are not particularly strong, but they are skilled in coordinated attacks and are demonic beasts, possessing unique techniques due to their natural advantages," Bai Yang thought, recalling the various force application methods and the subtleties of coordinated attacks.
The ancient sages who derived supreme martial techniques from the movements of demonic beasts were not exaggerating. Humans, though beings of spiritual energy, are not as naturally gifted as demonic beasts, which have existed since the beginning of the world, possessing special talents that humans cannot match.
However, although demonic beasts are strong, their cultivation is not as smooth as that of humans. The most powerful demonic beasts are often those with ancient bloodlines or those who have cultivated for countless years.
This is the fairness of the heavens.
Bai Yang, sensing the various techniques of the black wolves, felt the mysterious bloodline power in his body slowly taking effect, giving him some wonderful ideas.
He then took a step, moving in place, and performed a set of boxing techniques.
This set of boxing techniques utilized every muscle in his body to the utmost, sometimes as fists, sometimes as claws. Though not particularly profound, his control of strength was impeccable.
After performing the set of boxing techniques, Bai Yang felt a sense of smoothness throughout his body, and his eyes shone brighter. Many obstacles in his cultivation that he had previously struggled with became clearer.
He looked down at his hands and noticed some golden lines beginning to form along his arms and throughout his body. With every slight movement, these lines changed, affecting the entire body.
This subtle change was clear to Bai Yang, like observing the lines on his palm. This was the secret of human force application. If the manifestation of these golden lines deepened, even the subtlest details of Battle Qi circulation would be revealed!
In other words, as his realm grew, the secrets of others would no longer be mysterious to him.
"Bloodline power is truly wondrous," Bai Yang exhaled, sighing.
However, he did not linger. After a brief rest, he continued his journey, carrying dry rations.
At this point, Bai Yang's goal was not only to hone his combat experience but also to find some treasures and medicinal herbs in the mountains. This ancient mountain range, having endured countless years, was home to many precious materials.
For example, one of the main ingredients for the Spirit Awakening Pill could be found in this forest. Consuming it could enhance one's strength and intelligence. There were also ancient treasures, such as the stone milk formed in caves over thousands of years, a single drop of which could greatly increase Battle Qi, all of which were the essence of heaven and earth, incredibly powerful.
Even more rare treasures, created by the forces of nature, might be hidden deep in the forest, possibly in some inconspicuous corner, holding the potential for great fortune.
Although Bai Yang did not expect such luck, he would not return empty-handed from this natural treasure trove.
"If I can gather some Spirit Heart Grass, I can close the gap with the children of noble families and win the grand competition," Bai Yang began to plan his strategy for the grand competition. To rise from behind, he needed to put in tremendous effort. Besides his own cultivation, obtaining sufficient cultivation resources was also necessary.
Resources are a crucial element in cultivation success. While there are those who achieve great heights despite humble beginnings, they are extremely rare. Without sufficient resources, one would be at a disadvantage from the start.
Although Bai Yang came from a large clan, he had no status and no cultivation resources.
Of course, if he returned now with his awakened bloodline power and peak Seventh Level of Battle Qi, the Bai family would certainly invest resources in him. However, Bai Yang would not do so. Having been abandoned by the Bai family once, he had already resolved to rely on no one.
"Hmm? The air is filled with a faint, refreshing fragrance. There must be Spirit Heart Grass nearby."
Bai Yang identified the scent in the air, a mixture of earthy and fresh plant aromas, with a faint fragrance that brought a smile to his face.
Spirit Heart Grass is the main ingredient for the Spirit Awakening Pill, with a unique and valuable scent. If he could gather a few plants, it would make the trip worthwhile.
