Starting with Fireflies, Speedrun the World

If they could speak human language, they would already be cursing Xiao Huohuo's family. They've even started stealing from them.

In this area, everyone knows the vengeful nature of the Roaring Demon Monkey.

Years ago, a bird-like magical beast that had just broken through to the fifth rank provoked them, and the next day, that creature's eggs were all smashed.

"Looks like we have no choice but to go!"

Xiao Huohuo took a deep breath and raised the Xuanzhong Ruler, which resembled a heavy sword, with both hands.

This Xuanzhong Ruler was given to him by the herbalist. It looks like a huge black iron sword with strange and unique patterns on it.

It was forged from Flamefall Black Iron, making it extremely hard and heavy. It has the magical effect of suppressing battle qi, and Xiao Huohuo used this property to cultivate diligently on the continent.

Seeing Xiao Huohuo's actions, the magical beasts couldn't help but laugh. A mere human fighter, in such a certain death situation, actually dared to fight them head-on.

Any monster here could easily kill him.

This guy is too fast, otherwise we would have taken care of him long ago.

Faced with Xiao Huohuo's overconfident actions, one of the fourth-tier demonic monkeys stepped forward, making it unnecessary for the other demonic beasts to intervene.

The other demon monkeys only need to prevent him from escaping; one monkey can easily kill him.

"Looks like it's going to take care of you alone!"

Noticing the monkey's movements, the medicine man stopped what he was doing and didn't rush to substitute...

"But be careful, this is a fourth-tier magical beast, equivalent to a human Dou Ling expert, three whole major realms higher than you."

"Ah."

Xiao Huohuo nodded seriously upon hearing this, also extremely nervous, but this was also an opportunity for him.

"I need to borrow your power and your strange fire, teacher..."

He absolutely cannot deal with a fourth-tier magical beast on his own; only the power of the medicine master can help!

"I'll support you."

The medicine master readily agreed. Without his help, even if Xiao Huohuo had great potential and could fight beyond his level, he still wouldn't be able to deal with a magical beast comparable to a Dou Ling.

Having received permission, Xiao Huohuo took the heavy ruler and walked towards the fourth-order demonic monkey in front of him.

Looking at the arrogant human in front of him, the demon monkey roared angrily, emitting a piercing sound that caused the surrounding trees and rocks to explode under the pressure of the sound.

Then the demon monkey leaped up and slammed down on Xiao Huohuo with terrifying force.

At that instant, Xiao Huohuo also used a low-level combat skill that he wasn't very proficient with yet, which was also his strongest killing move.

"A terrifying wave of destruction (modified)!"

The terrifying wave attack, a low-level Earth-rank combat skill, was a gift from the Medicine Master. Once mastered, it can split mountains and cleave waves with every gesture.

It needs to be paired with the Xuanzhong Ruler to unleash its full power.

With the support of Yao Lao's power, Xiao Huohuo unleashed a massive wave of energy that cracked the ground wherever it passed.

When it collided with the demon monkey, it caused an earthquake.

Once the commotion subsided, Xiao Huohuo was panting heavily... while the fourth-tier magical beast was also somewhat disheveled, but it didn't appear to be seriously injured.

"As expected of a fourth-tier magical beast, it's still unharmed..."

Xiao Huohuo was somewhat surprised by the appearance of the magical beast in front of him.

"Get ready, little guys... they're about to go berserk."

At this moment, the old man's voice rang out from the side, and then entered Xiao Huohuo's body, preparing to escape.

As expected, the demonic monkeys did not accept this result; a human fighter had actually beaten their fourth-tier companion to this state.

This human is too dangerous!

The demon monkeys decided to stop wasting time and attacked together.

They all pounced on Xiao Huohuo...

Just as Yao Lao was about to start his escape, a heavy sword similar to Xiao Huo Huo's heavy ruler suddenly fell from the sky and smashed into the monkey troop.

The next second, a huge mushroom cloud rose up, and the entire Warcraft Mountain Range shook violently.

Xiao Huohuo was directly blown away by the shockwave from the heavy sword, while the demonic monkey in the center was vaporized. Only the demonic beasts on the edge escaped unscathed, but were still blown away by the shockwave to an unknown distance.

The sudden commotion not only terrified Xiao Huohuo, but also greatly shocked Yao Lao.

What kind of power is this...?

How could anyone in this northwestern region possess such power?

"Cough cough..."

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yan got up from the ground. Although he felt uncomfortable all over, he was fine.

"Teacher, what was that just now?"

Xiao Huohuo was very confused; he hadn't realized what had happened in that brief moment.

All he saw was a weapon, roughly the same weight as the ruler in his hand, come crashing down.

"The noise was caused by someone using sheer force to smash down a heavy ruler."

The medicine man looked serious; he had seen far more than the average person.

"What? Just pure strength? Without battle qi, it's not even a battle technique?"

Hearing this explanation, Xiao Huohuo was stunned. If mere strength was this terrifying, just how terrifying must its owner be!

I can't even imagine...

"No……"

The medicine seller shook his head; he was absolutely certain that there was no trace of fighting spirit present.

"..."

Xiao Huohuo swallowed hard, his gaze fixed on the spot where the heavy sword had fallen. Just what kind of monster was this?

In this situation, he dared not move or run, even though his heavy ruler was still somewhere he didn't know.

The shockwave was so terrifying that he couldn't even grab the heavy ruler...

Now, he can only lie on the ground to minimize his presence.

He's just a lowly fighter; he probably won't be targeted.

As the dust settled, Xiao Huohuo and Yao Lao finally saw the actual situation ahead. The forest they had seen before was gone, and what had appeared there was... an enormous hole.

In the center of the hole, a heavy sword stood.

Besides the greatsword, there was another person, a little girl of twelve or thirteen, standing barefoot on top of the greatsword.

It's the lovely Yun Li!

"You used a little too much force."

Yun Li jumped off the iron rod. She didn't even use her destiny power, just her raw strength. And she restrained herself greatly, simply wanting to make the magical beasts behave.

I didn't expect it to still be so powerful...

But no matter what, the magical beasts all calmed down.

The only pity is that their bodies all vaporized, and their magic cores and such were gone. It feels like a waste of 100 million gold coins.

ah ah ah...

How many strings of candied hawthorns would that take?

With a slight sigh, Yun Li jumped out of the huge pit she had created; she still had important business to attend to.

Xiao Huohuo should still be alive, right? She restrained herself and deliberately avoided him.

However, just as Yun Li was about to walk towards Xiao Huohuo, she suddenly noticed something and leaped a few steps to appear in front of a heavy ruler.

Looking at the black heavy ruler in front of me, which was almost identical to my old friend's, or rather, a heavy sword.

As a sword enthusiast, she couldn't resist drawing it immediately...

The surface of this jet-black greatsword is decorated with somewhat blurry, strange patterns that extend to the hilt and almost cover the entire blade. Combined with its ancient, jet-black color, it appears quite mysterious.

More importantly, Yun Li could sense the weapon's inner voice.

Rather than saying its current owner uses it to kill enemies, it's more accurate to say he uses it as a tool for cultivation, specifically to hone his skills.

This is different from Yun Li's effortless mastery...

"It is indeed a fine sword!"

"Although the materials are a bit inferior, and like my old friend, there is room for improvement."

After examining the jet-black greatsword, Yun Li was somewhat tempted, although its power was far inferior to the weapon she had forged herself.

But often, the most important thing about a sword is not its material, but other aspects.

In Yun Li's view, every weapon has its own ideas, and some of these weapons, though seemingly ordinary, possess boundless potential. They have even developed a sword intent, a sword heart, unique to the sword.

And this jet-black greatsword, similar to the old iron, is just like that; it already has the nascent form of a heart.

If Yun Li were to reforge it, it would definitely qualify as a Hidden Sword.

"My heavy ruler..."

Xiao Yan, who was concealing his own aura, noticed that his weapon had fallen into the hands of a little girl and was very concerned about it.

But he dared not show himself...

Judging from the fact that the girl jumped out of that giant hole while holding that heavy sword, it can be basically inferred that she was the one who threw the weapon.

I never expected it to be such a young girl.

"Teacher, what's going on with this girl? Her strength is terrifying! What level is she?"

Xiao Huohuo asked his teacher in the ring through his mind, feeling a great shock in his heart.

"I can't see through her. I can't see a trace of battle qi on her at all. She's just like an ordinary person who has never cultivated battle qi."

The medicine man was also very shocked, as even he couldn't see through the girl in front of him at all.

It's so bizarre, so unbelievable.
