The Journey to Heaven

Final Battle

Boom...!

One more demonic beast slammed violently, seeing his friend being hit by the other wolves immediately pouncing at the same time.

The five wolves teamed up to defeat the opponent in front of them, using their intuition as well as their natural instincts, the wolves attacked the man from various directions.

One wolf jumped from the front, and the other four attacked from four different directions. The five wolves were also not only attacking with raw strength, but their attacks were like being enveloped with cyan-colored energy.

Looking at the attacks from various directions, Huozhan remained calm and gripped his staff even tighter. Huozhan had not learned a single stick technique, but he had a technique that could be used in any way.

It had been three years from the first time he had learned this technique, during which time he had rarely used it while fighting.

According to him, the demonic beasts that he had fought or hunted, had no need to make him issue the technique.

Stabilizing his body as well as starting his breathing technique, Huozhan started to control all the qi within his body. Huozhan's Qi began to flow regularly throughout the body, now from the outside it was visible Huozhan's body was enveloped in a clear light.

The first technique is limitation, when you control boundaries then you can control your own life.

Seeing the wolves already approaching, Huozhan instantly executed his technique, 'Eight Direction Attack'.

When the technique was executed, Huozhan felt control over his qinya instantly increase. Feeling that his technique was going well, Huozhan was ready to make a move.

The first strike aimed at the wolf that was above its head, positioned its staff high into the sky, then swung it down.

The swing hit the flying wolf's head and then dropped it down, the battered wolf fell down and crashed into the wolf below.

After the first attack, Huozhan carried out his next attack. Stabbing the wolf behind him, Huozhan's two attacks managed to knock down 3 tier 5 wolves.

When Huozhan attacked the three wolves, he directly let the other two wolves attack him. This was the so-called boundary, humans had restrictions even cultivators though.

Seeing as there was no time to dodge, Huozhan only prepared his body on impact.

Baams...!

The sound of the third impact was heard, as a result of the impact a cloud of dust covered them. Not long after, two figures came out from that speck of dust.

"Hehehe you see, even if my body is attacked it will not cause any injury."

While swinging his staff to blow away the dust, Huozhan's figure appeared with an excited face.

During the fight Huozhan's movements were limited because his opponent relied on numbers. When he fought, he limited the use of qi in his punches and focused the qi more into defense.

This is what is meant by boundaries, when you control boundaries, then no one can escape from your grasp.

"Gerrr..."

"Are you angry!"

"Look, if the two of you leave quietly, then I won't hit you, how do you agree?"

Ignoring Huozhan's bidding, the two demonic beasts started a fight back. Just like before the claws of those wolves started to be cyan in color.

Huozhan whose movements were limited when he fought the five wolves,

Now it is very free when only fighting with two wolves.

"Swoos..."

The sound of stick friction in the air filled the ears, every time Huozhan swung his staff the airwaves made the movements of the wolves limited.

This time Huozhan intended to train briefly with the two beasts, each swing he did not aim at hitting, but only to hinder and disrupt their movements.

This training is not without reason. When he used the boundary technique, he only had a short time to sense the essence of the technique.

Now just by fighting two tier five demonic beasts, Huozhan was free enough to train the limits. The limit he now did, was to attack without injuring.

Feeling their bodies start to weigh and slow down, the two demonic beasts realized that their movements had been restricted.

Not only were the movements restricted, but their opponents had completely controlled the course of the fight.

"Huh, uh..." "Huh, uh..."

Seeing the two wolves keeping their distance and sighing in exhaustion, Huozhan stopped and stuck his staff to the ground.

"Hehe, didn't I tell you to go, look now you're tired, aren't you."

"But since I'm a good boy, I'll let you go now."

After saying that sentence, Huozhan quickly moved and struck one wolf flying far away.

Seeing his comrades in arms being hit, the wolf would immediately run off before he felt a pain in his butt.

"Youuu..."

"Hehehe, of course I will let you go but with good-bye, see you again!"

Storing back his staff, Huozhan sat down and picked up an item to aid in his qinya recovery.

Although it looked like Huozhan did not use much qi, but actually the qi within his body was almost depleted.

Eight Directions Attack was indeed a technique to control energy, but Huozhan's ability in this technique was still amateurish, so there were still many errors in control and resulted in the loss of qi.

"It seems like there are still many secrets that my brother and I don't know about the two children yet."

Yang Jian who was still watching Huozhan, right now in his eyes that the combination of gold and silver colors was shining with a dazzling light.

...

"Ha! Ha!..."

Still swinging the sabre in his hand, WuChang started to look exhausted. This was not due to his body but rather to the draining of his mind.

The movement of cutting WuChang did look simple, but in every swing of the sabre he poured concentration and focus into it.

Glancing at WuChang's sweaty body, Yin Jing simply ignored and continued her cooking. He was currently cooking the meat he had just hunted, just because it was injured did not mean he could not hunt, if only herbivorous animals were something easy.

Then how about cooking, the days of a cultivator as strong as Yin Jing had to learn to cook. It was all because of Yin Jing's training in his sect, some cults of the heretic did hard training and in particular the sect where Yin Jing lived.

In the sect all disciples were treated almost equally, whether it was ordinary disciples to the most talented disciples like Yin Jing. Almost all of the disciples were ordered to go survive on their own, and that was where Yin Jing learned how to survive including cooking.

"WuChang training today is enough here, come here and let's eat together."

Sheathing her sabrenya WuChang walked over to where Yin Jing was cooking, "Uncle Yin why do we stop, previously uncle said we will practice until dusk."

"Oh... I just changed my mind, I see you have achieved what I wanted from this training."

"So I decided to give you a body training technique after this, certainly after we eat and rest."

Saying that Yin Jing directly ate her cooking, and followed the hungry WuChang after practicing all day.

It didn't take long for them to finish that demonic beast meat.

WuChang who had replenished his energy, was currently in meditation to regain his focus.

"WuChang before I didn't want to give you this technique, but after I saw Heaven's Gate my mind changed."

Although there was no answer from WuChang, Yin Jing continued, "This technique is called Nether Yin Baptism."

Nether Yin Baptism is a body technique that uses Yin energy to strengthen the body, the reason Yin Jing is unwilling to train WuChang with this technique, is, because practicing this technique was the same as showing that he was a demon cultivator.

This technique has several sets of movements for each level of body training. When a person practices these movements, the yin energy from nature will unconsciously enter the body.

Every yin energy enters the process of forging the body, some people will feel pain and freezing cold while the training process is underway.

"I'm going to practice a set of muscle training movements, look and pay attention, because I hope you break through the muscle level today."

...

Opening his eyes Huozhan saw someone standing in front of him.

"Uncle Yang, are you here?"

"Of course, seeing you close your eyes how I'm not worried."

When Huozhan finished fighting with the six fifth level demonic beasts, he almost ran out of qi and also experienced mental exhaustion.

Yang Jian also sensed Huozhan would need enough time to recover, to be able to continue the battle again. For that reason Yang Jian came and helped Huozhan to recover faster.

"Huozhan, you sure can continue."

"Of course, I'll keep going until I get that gift, hehe..."

"If so remember my earlier words, salvation is all that matters."

Feeling that there was no longer any need for Yang Jian here, he went to his original place. In addition to worrying about Huozhan, he was also curious about the development of the child.

The longer the boy fought the stronger he became, this development happened not because of Huozhan's talent alone, but there was a technique factor in it.

Intrigued by the mysterious technique, Yang Jian would ascertain what its function was by seeing the boy train at a later time. Saving his mind backwards, Yang Jian started to focus on Huozhan back.

"Erghs..."

Stretching his body, Huozhan felt his muscles had relaxed back. Raising the staff in his hand, Huozhan started walking forward casually.

"What the hell is going on here?"

After starting his journey again, he had yet to find any opponents. Usually there will be some demons who block, but there is only an empty road.

Not thinking too much about the oddity, Huozhan continued walking towards the cave. As the distance to the cave grew closer, Huozhan began to feel another strangeness.

Huozhan felt the closer he got to the cave, the harder he was to breathe. Not only that, after he got close to the cave, the wind started blowing fiercely and could even scratch his clothes.

With the strange pressure growing stronger, and the strong and sharp gusts of wind, Huozhan's movements began to slow down. Slowly Huozhan's footsteps began to reach his goal.

Now in front of him Huozhan saw the enormous mouth of the cave, not only did the large mouth of the cave also put pressure on his body. Feeling that something was about to happen, Huozhan put up a position ready to fight.

"Wooosh's..."

Suddenly something quickly headed towards him, not knowing what it was Huozhan chose to dodge. Despite avoiding the object, Huozhan still felt pain in his right arm.

Glancing at his right arm, he saw blood flowing from the wound. This was the first time he had been injured to the point of bleeding.

It had not even been a few seconds since Huozhan had dodged, something that quickly struck him again. Without giving Huozhan a chance to prepare, the brat had arrived in front of Huozhan.

Though unprepared, Huozhan did not look panicked. He had already made sure that the one who attacked him was a living being, therefore he did not dodge anymore.

Huozhan quickly held on with her staff, as the two met the sound of iron clanking heard.

As a result of the impact his body fell backwards. Currently Huozhan was in a back position stuck to the ground, both of his hands still firmly grasping the cane.

Directing his head upwards, Huozhan saw a wolf that was the same as his previous opponent, but this wolf in front of him had a larger body, had a slightly different color of fur, and the important thing is that this animal is stronger than its kind.

That level six demonic beast glared at Huozhan below him, baring off his row of sharp fangs, he began to add strength to suppress Huozhan.

Feeling that his strength was not enough, the wolf began to flow cyan-colored qi throughout his body.

The flow of wolf qi impacted differently from the others, if the qi of other wolves only added to the strength as well as the sharpness of the claws, then the qi of these wolves started to form a sharp gust of wind.

When the blade-shaped wind gusts began to circulate, Huozhan's body now began to fill with injuries. Looking at the human condition beneath him, the demonic beast grinned and began to increase its wind power once again.

Judging that his body was about to fall into a dangerous condition, Huozhan immediately made the decision to be able to escape his current position.

Exerting his full strength, Huozhan tried to push the wolf above him. Seeing the human struggling, the wolf simply chuckled and started to suppress it even more strongly.

Now a human boy and a sixth-rate wolf engage in a power contest. On the human side, he was trying to get out of his depressed state, while the wolf who was comfortable on top wanted to destroy the humans below him.

When Huozhan was about to lose in the strength contest, she immediately removed her left hand from the grasp of the stick. The wolf that was shocked by Huozhan's movements, instantly slipped due to its own momentum.

Seeing the wolf slip, Huozhan started rolling towards the right and left his staff. This series of events is going on very quickly.

Huozhan was currently in a standing position, now that he had time to take medicine for his injuries. The wolf that had woken up started staring at Huozhan with hostility.

From the quick fight of the two, there was one person who saw everything clearly. Yang Jian was currently thinking, whether to help Huozhan or continue to let him fight.

If judged from the brief clash of the two, Yang Jian saw that the current Huozhan was still not a match for a tier 6 demonic beast. But given everything Huozhan had experienced, his strength as well as ability would continue to evolve over time.

According to Yang Jian, Huozhan was the type of person who would get stronger the more he fought. It was as if he was indeed born to fight, and lived in battle.

Feeling that there was no point in thinking about it, he could only wait for Huozhan's own decision. He thought Huozhan was not a foolish child and would sacrifice his own life.

"Hehehe.. wolf lord, I admit you are stronger than I thought but it's the same."

"Hmr...!"

Feeling humiliated by the human sentence in front of him, the wolf growled and began to drain its wind qi once again.

Although without his magic weapon, Huozhan remained calm and he also began to flow qi throughout his body, although the effect of his qi was not as amazing as his opponent.

One wolf and one human face each other, both of them begin to prepare for the upcoming fight. It had the same head height, but the wolf was still larger than the human in front of it.

Second by second it goes on with silence, this is what is called the calm before the storm. Without any cue, the two began to slide towards each other.

In that close combat, each attack of the wolf created a sharp wind blade, while from the human side there was no special movement, but only a simple punch and kick.

The two began to strain attacks and injure each other, Huozhan suffered many injuries due to the sharp wind from his opponent, and to the wolf he felt pain from within his body, Huozhan was suffering from a sharp wind, because every single blow Huozhan made had a considerable impact on his internal organs.

Tired after attacking each other, the two retreated and kept their distance. Now Huozhan's body was completely drenched in his own blood, although the demonic beast was unharmed outside, but blood was dripping from its mouth.

"Hehe... Mr. wolf, how about we make peace."

"You know, if we keep fighting like this, maybe the two of us won't survive."

Hearing the peaceful invitation of the humans, the Wolf also began to consider the advantages and disadvantages of this fight.

Feeling he did not get any losses, plus this man did not kill a single sari herd. The wolf judged this was the best option, but since he was the alpha of his herd, he could not just reconcile and leave.

Looking into his opponent's eyes, the wolf was trying to communicate.

"Gerrr..."

"Hm... What do you mean?"

"You think that by growling like that, I'll be scared huh!"

Ignoring that stupid human, he began to prepare to attack while howling.

"Aaooo..."

Hearing that howl, Huozhan immediately understood what he meant. Spreading his qinya throughout the body, he began to exert all his remaining strength.

Now both of them were actually compressing their strength for one last strike.

"Well...!"

"Aao...!"

Starting with the screams of the two, they began to launch the final attack in this fight.

...
