Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

Three days later,

It was still that familiar cave. After three days of recuperation, Xiao Li felt that he had reached his peak condition and that the thin membrane that allowed him to advance to the Dou Ling level could be broken at any time.

"I'm starting," Xiao Li said to Yun Yun, and then took the Spirit Ascension Pill.

The Spirit Ascension Pill melted instantly upon entering Xiao Li's mouth, forming a warm current that slid down his throat.

Instantly, an extremely powerful energy filled Xiao Li's body.

The powerful energy kept impacting Xiao Li's meridians, but Xiao Li's seemingly fragile meridians were actually very tough. No matter how much the energy of the Spirit Ascension Pill clashed with them, it could not shake Xiao Li's meridians. In fact, Xiao Li did not feel any pain; on the contrary, he felt quite comfortable.

Do you understand the value of raising a sixth-grade alchemist from childhood? They practically eat pills like food, and take medicinal baths every three days for a small soak and every five days for a large one.

Yun Yun stood not far from Xiao Li, holding her sword and keeping watch.

boom--

An extremely powerful energy emanated from Xiao Li's body, and the fluctuation was quite magnificent.

"Oh no! This breakthrough might attract the surrounding magical beasts. I have to go check it out. I can't let the magical beasts disturb Brother Xiao Li's breakthrough."

Yun Yun walked directly out of the cave, holding a sharp sword. She would slay any magical beasts that approached the cave!

Yun Yun is now fifteen years old and has the cultivation of a two-star Dou Shi. She has advanced from a five-star Dou Zhe to a two-star Dou Shi in less than a year, which is quite fast.

This was all thanks to the pills refined by Xiao Li, which helped Yun Yun's cultivation improve so quickly.

Roar--

woo-

As expected, Xiao Li's breakthrough attracted some magical beasts.

"Two second-tier magical beasts and one third-tier magical beast, this is troublesome!"

Yun Yun gripped her longsword tightly with both hands, her expression serious. She was confident she could kill a second-tier magical beast, but a third-tier magical beast would be more difficult.

Third-tier magical beasts are comparable to Grand Battle Masters. Yun Yun's chances of winning against a third-tier magical beast are fifty-fifty, but there are also two second-tier magical beasts, equivalent to Battle Masters, eyeing her covetously. Yun Yun is under a lot of pressure.

She also had to control the range of her attacks, otherwise she would attract even more monsters.

Roar--

The third-tier magical beast was the first to attack, heading straight for Yun Yun.

"Extreme Wind - Meteor Strike!"

Yun Yun's longsword trembled suddenly, and a beam of cyan light, as thick as an arm, shot out instantly.

boom--

After the cyan light struck the third-tier magical beast, a large hole was punched in its body, revealing its internal organs.

Roar--

The monster's vitality was extremely strong; a mere serious injury was not enough to make it flee in defeat. Yun Yun's attack, on the contrary, enraged it.

"Damn it! My Wind Extreme - Meteor Strike skill is still not up to par. If I compressed my wind-attribute battle qi to the size of a thumb, this monster would have been pierced through long ago!"

Yun Yun felt that her cultivation was still inadequate and that she must cultivate properly after this tribulation!

"Wind Spirit Fragment Sword!"

Yun Yun's longsword suddenly trembled rapidly, then moved slowly. Each time the sword moved even an inch, it would leave behind a sword-shaped afterimage that looked almost tangible.

The Wind Spirit Split Sword is a mid-level Xuan-rank combat skill of the Yunlan Sect. Yun Yun can now split it into six sword shapes.

As Yun Yun moved her longsword, several afterimages of energy slowly appeared and simultaneously attacked the three-headed demonic beast.

The three demonic beasts were suddenly dumbfounded. How come there were suddenly so many humans on the other side? And they all seemed very strong!

Yun Yun unleashed several afterimages, along with her main body, all of which charged up and slashed a cyan moon blade at the three-headed demonic beast!

The seven moon blades actually merged together during flight! They formed a giant azure light about two zhang long, and Yun Yun's afterimages also disappeared.

laugh--

The three demonic beasts were swept away by the azure light, their bodies falling into pieces here and there.

"Phew~ If a few more of these magical beasts come, I might not be able to hold on." Yun Yun's pretty face was pale at this moment. First, she used a high-level Xuan-rank battle skill, and then followed up with a mid-level Xuan-rank battle skill. Yun Yun's battle energy was almost depleted.

Yun Yun took out a jade bottle from her storage ring, opened it, and poured the Qi-restoring pills into it, with the bottle opening directly to her mouth.

After taking the Qi-restoring pill, Yun Yun felt her fighting spirit begin to recover rapidly, and her pale face became rosy.

Roar--

"And Warcraft!"

A massive bear-like monster suddenly appeared and charged towards the cave!

"A fourth-tier magical beast, the Rock-Splitter Bear! This is troublesome!"

Yun Yun looked at the Rock-Splitting Bear with a solemn expression. It was a fourth-tier magical beast, equivalent to a Dou Ling expert, two major realms higher than Yun Yun. How could she possibly fight it?

"Extreme Wind - Meteor Strike!"

Yun Yun's longsword trembled suddenly, and a beam of light, even thinner than the azure light she had just unleashed, shot out instantly.

呲——

The blue light hit the Rock-Splitter Bear, but only made a hole in its belly.

"As expected, a fourth-tier magical beast is beyond my current ability to defeat." Yun Yun's pretty face turned pale again. Her battle qi had not yet recovered, and after using another high-level Xuan-rank battle skill, Yun Yun's battle qi was already depleted.

Roar--

The Rockcutter Bear slammed its fist into the ground, then lifted a huge rock and threw it.

Upon seeing this, Yun Yun was about to use her Flying Willow Technique to dodge, but the exhaustion of her fighting spirit caused her legs to buckle.

Yun Yun gritted her teeth and flipped her body to barely dodge the boulder, but the rubble scattered from the boulder still hit her.

Yun Yun crashed directly into a tree. She felt a sweet taste in her throat and then excruciating pain throughout her body.

Roar--

The Rockcrack Bear charged forward, its eyes bloodshot, wanting to tear the human before it to shreds.

When Yun Yun saw the Rock-Cracking Bear rushing over, she tried to get up and dodge, but she suddenly felt a sharp pain. Yun Yun quickly used her internal vision to check and found that she had two broken ribs and her right leg was dislocated.

"Am I really going to die this time?" Yun Yun muttered to herself. She still had unfulfilled ambitions, had not yet led the Yunlan Sect to its peak, and had not yet become a powerful figure.

At this moment, Yun Yun's will to survive reached its peak. She suddenly wondered if the man would come out of seclusion in time to save her.

Roar--

The Rock-Splitter Bear suddenly pounced.

"Nine Tribulations Heavenly Flame Hand!"

A giant purple fiery hand slammed down, striking the Rockcrack Bear directly and sending it flying several meters away.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of Yun Yun, and Yun Yun's eyes lit up.

Xiao Li turned around and looked at the somewhat pitiful Yun Yun. His heart couldn't help but clench. He then took out a jade bottle from his storage ring and poured out a pill.

"This is a Bone-Regenerating Pill." Xiao Li directly fed the Bone-Regenerating Pill to Yun Yun.

Roar--

The Rock-Splitter Bear snapped out of its daze, roared, and charged toward Xiao Li's position once more.

"die!"

Xiao Li picked up Yun Yun's sword with his right hand, and then a powerful aura of battle qi condensed in his left hand, forming a purple longsword.

Battle Qi Transformed into Matter! A Battle Spirit Powerhouse!

Xiao Li suddenly pushed off, his two swords overlapping as he slashed at the throat of the Rock-Splitting Bear.

puff--

The head of the rock-cracked bear was chopped off, and blood spurted out.

"Hmph! How dare a mere bear that has just entered the fourth rank be so arrogant? If you dare to hurt my people, I'll chop off your bear paw to go with my wine!"

Xiao Li raised his sword and chopped off the rock-cracked bear's paw, also extracting its demonic core in the process.

The Rock-Splitter Bear is an earth-attribute magical beast, and its magic core is an excellent material for alchemy. Xiao Li remembers that his cousin Xiao Lie is an earth-attribute warrior. He will go home and make some pills for the boys in the family.

Roar--

"Holy crap? There's another expert? Run!"

Xiao Li heard an extremely powerful roar, and from his senses he knew that it was at least a fifth-order magical beast.

Without a second thought, Xiao Li picked up Yun Yun and ran away.
