Reincarnation Alchemists

chapter 40

However, Ling Han was only at the seventh layer of the Body Refining Tier right now. There was too great a distance between him and the rotten Blood Wolf. Moreover, a martial artist could die at any time in a battle against a demonic beast. The battle will not end even if you shout “Stop” or “I surrender”.

“Do not worry!” Ling Han smiled. Holding the iron sword in his hand, his expression immediately became solemn.

The rotten Blood Wolf constantly released a deep growl. In front of him stood two people. The man did not look very threatening, but the woman standing behind him caused the wolf to feel fear. However, due to the ferocious nature of the demonic beasts, he was unwilling to let go of his prey.

The blood and flesh of demonic beasts were considered to be extremely nutritious for every martial artist, but martial artists were also an extremely nutritious meal for demonic beasts.

Rotten Blood Wolf was extremely cautious. It does not attack directly.

“Yu Tong, back off,” said Ling Han. Wolves are a very patient species, very careful. Must have sensed Liu Yu Tong's hidden strength.

Liu Yu Tong frowned. Considering the current distance, he would be able to help her in time if she needed it. But if this distance increased, then had Ling Han faced danger, he might not have been able to do anything to help him.

“Trust me,” Ling Han smiled.

Liu Yu Tong finally retreated slowly.

The ferocious nature of The Rotten Blood Wolf was immediately resurrected. Its front claw burrowed into the ground and its jaws opened, revealing two rows of dagger-like sharp teeth, emitting cold air.

Ling Han bent his finger, and said, “Based on stupid dogs, come on, come on, come on!”

“Ao!” The rotten Blood Wolf released a howl, pouncing abruptly at an extremely shocking speed.

Ling Han did not panic. With a long wave of his sword, the Shocking Electric Sword Art had begun.

“Shua!” Only one sword pierced forward yet two flashes of cold light appeared. One was the sword itself, while the other was white-colored energy.

“Med Qi!” Liu Yu Tong could not hold his breath in surprise.

Sword Qi was the symbol of a sword player, just like a sword user required to possess Saber Qi. It was very sharp, and very strong.

He had yet to form Sword Qi yet he knew the difficulty to achieve it – he had an uncle who had been recognized as a genius in sword arts, yet he had only formed Sword Qi after five years of immersing himself in the path of the sword.

Is this guy really human?

Ling Han felt no wonder. Forming Sword Qi was only a natural event, the goal was Sword Ray! [1]

Sword Ray was a solid form of Sword Qi. His strength is even stronger. Unfortunately, he had not spent much time on sword arts in his last life so he had only formed Sword Qi, and had not managed to form Sword Ray.

The next step of Sword Ray was Sword Heart. This was the highest level that could be reached in the path of the sword.

However, against Rotten Blood Wolf, a single flash of Sword Qi was more than enough.

The moment the Shocking Electricity Sword Arts opened, Ling Han's long sword moved freely, its figure graceful.

Accompanying the Shocking Electricity Sword Arts display was Exiting Cloud Step. Each step was about four or five meters long, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, suddenly to the front, suddenly to the back. The steps seemed strange and very fast, becoming blurry in the eyes of any observer.

Liu Yu Tong looked over from the side and could not help nodding his head in secret.

If he suppressed his cultivation level to the seventh layer of the Body Refining Tier, he would definitely not be able to perform as well as Ling Han. Instead, he would probably face danger from all sides now. After all, there was a huge difference in cultivation level between Ling Han and his opponent – two layers. Furthermore, his opponent was a demonic beast.

Normally, in a battle between a martial artist and a demonic beast, martial artists needed to have a slight advantage in cultivation level in order to achieve victory. If the cultivation levels of martial artists and demonic beasts were about the same, then martial artists had a higher chance of losing. After all, not all martial artists were geniuses at battle.

Ling Han's sword movements became increasingly fluid. His steps were natural and smooth as he enjoyed the pleasure of fighting.

He was really too focused on the path of alchemy in his last life. In terms of martial arts, he used to only care about cultivation level. The whole “journey” - it upwards has just become a superficial understanding of martial arts. But this time, when he once again stepped onto the path of martial arts, he suddenly discovered that martial arts could actually be very interesting as well.

Rotten Blood Wolf had become his sparring partner, allowing him to practice moving as he pleased, holding his grasp of the Shocking Electric Sword Art.

Ten minutes later, Rotten Blood Wolf was already covered in cuts and bruises. This makes it very scary. This seemingly weak human was actually very strong! It did not want to retreat, but was even more afraid that not only would the two not become offerings to its fangs, but that itself would become food for these two humans.

“There is no way out!” Ling Han laughed out loud. The sword moved as he wished. Two flashes of Sword Qi were released simultaneously between flashes of cold light.

Two flashes of Sword Qi! He finally broke through!

“Pu!” Blood spurted as crimson flowers suddenly bloomed on the neck of the rotten Blood Wolf. His huge body collapsed with a loud voice, his eyes opened wide as if he still could not believe that a human in the seventh layer of the Body Refining Tier could actually kill him!

Demonic ferocious beasts had a very high level of intelligence. A powerful demonic beast might even possess intelligence comparable to a human.

Ling Han nodded. The power of the two flashes of Sword Qi was indeed great. Previously, a single glint of Sword Qi had only allowed him to fight parallel to the Rotten Blood Wolf, but two flashes allowed him to kill him in an instant! As expected, even if the cultivation level was the same, there was still a huge difference in the actual strength of different martial artists.

On the side, Liu Yu Tong was once again startled by silence.

Just this little bit of time, and Ling Han had increased from one Sword Qi flash to two. If his uncle knew about this, wouldn't he be humiliated to the point of jumping into a river and drowning himself? Since his uncle had spent over thirty years to form four flashes of Sword Qi, he was already recognized as a genius swordsman by the entire clan. But, when compared to Ling Han ….
