At that mont, Ye Tian was like a mighty war god, attacking the Gale Wolf with overwhelming force. A single punch sent it flying several ters.
The Gale Wolf howled in pain, a deafening cry that shook the air. Its eyes flashed with a terrifying, bone-chilling light.
"Ye Tian, that was amazing!" Ye Feifei couldn't help but exclaim. She had never expected him to perform so well. 'With his current strength,' she thought, 'becoming an Inner Sect Disciple should be no problem at all.'
Ye Feifei didn't stand idle while she spoke. With a quick slash of the Fine Steel Sword in her hand, she struck another Gale Wolf, sending it flying several ters as well. A spray of crimson wolf blood rained down from the air.
The full power of a One Vein Seventh Layer cultivator was on vivid display. Out of the corner of his eye, Ye Tian caught this spectacular move. He knew at once that Ye Feifei must be using the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique.
'This is a perfect demonstration, so much faster than trying to figure it out on my own.' For a mont, he had the urge to commit it all to mory.
Only soone as bold as Ye Tian would even consider such a thing. The Gale Wolf he had enraged was still right beside him, and a single swipe of its claws could leave him severely wounded.
But Ye Tian had no intention of letting that happen. He continuously executed the Flowing Cloud Step, his dodges incredibly swift. In that mont, he unknowingly mastered the Second Form of the Flowing Cloud Step, bringing it to the Perfect Realm.
"Ye Tian, let's see who can kill their Gale Wolf first!" Ye Feifei's interest was piqued. The Gale Wolves were perfect sparring partners for them, a great help for mastering their Martial Skills and improving their strength.
"Okay!" Ye Tian replied with a single word. His fist once again unleashed the Thunderbolt Fist, striking the Gale Wolf. Unseen, his Thunderbolt Fist had improved dramatically, and was now not far from the Perfect Realm.
The Gale Wolf was incredibly fast, and Ye Tian's attacks sotis missed their mark. But whenever a blow landed, it was enough to shatter the beast's bones—a clear testant to the power he'd gained after breaking through to the Fifth Layer.
Ye Feifei's robes fluttered as she created countless illusions of her blade. Powerful waves of Sword Qi relentlessly struck the Gale Wolf before her. Soon, its body was covered in dozens of massive wounds.
Crimson blood stained the ground red. The beast's massive body swayed, on the verge of collapse from its grievous injuries. Ye Feifei knew that one more powerful strike would finish it off.
Her fair, jade-like hand, gripping the hilt, dipped slightly. In a flash, she launched herself into the air, her body spinning as she descended, leaving an afterimage as she brought her sword down on the Gale Wolf.
The sword strike left Ye Tian, watching from the side, in shock. He could clearly feel the imnse Energy radiating from the attack. It was countless tis more powerful than his own Thunderbolt Fist. 'A powerful Martial Skill truly is on another level,' he thought.
'Once I've learned the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique,' he believed, 'my power won't be any less than Feifei's. After all, I've already cultivated the Flowing Cloud Step.'
Ye Feifei's sword strike cleaved through the Gale Wolf as if splitting bamboo, slicing it in two. A spray of blood splattered across her face veil, forcing her to remove it.
But Ye Tian had no ti to admire Ye Feifei's stunning beauty. 'Now that Feifei has killed her Gale Wolf, I have to speed things up.' The fists he threw seed to grow even more ferocious.
A few breaths later, Ye Tian's battle was over. The Gale Wolf died in exactly the sa way as the first one: all its bones and internal organs ruptured. Perhaps only a rare talent like Ye Tian would accomplish sothing so distinctive.
The thick, nauseating stench of blood filled the air. Ye Tian walked over to Ye Feifei's side, thinking he would finally get to see her true face. To his great frustration, she had already put on a clean veil.
"Feifei, do you really have to wear a veil, even in front of ?" Ye Tian asked.
"I'll stop wearing it on the day you're ready to accept . Are you saying you want to take it off right now?" Ye Feifei said with a smile.
Ye Tian frowned slightly before replying, "Let's save that for another ti. We should get out of here quickly!"
"Not so fast," Ye Feifei said, her tone serious. "Let's check if these three Gale Wolves have any Inner Cores. That's a treasure we can't afford to miss!"
Ye Tian knew the value of a Demon Beast Core. 'This kind of grunt work could only fall to ,' he thought. 'After all, I'm the man here.'
The Gale Wolf Ye Feifei had killed was already split in two, so Ye Tian didn't have to waste any ti cutting it open. He searched around the heart for a while but found nothing, which left him a little disappointed.
Of the other two wolves, only one had an Inner Core. Ye Tian was frustrated, but Ye Feifei was quite satisfied. Getting an Inner Core from a Low Tier Demon Beast like a Gale Wolf was practically a miracle.
The two then began their swift return. The journey was smooth, and only after they had crossed to another mountain did Ye Feifei finally stop. "That was a close call, but we're safe. You must never go alone again. It's just too dangerous!"
Ye Tian nodded slightly and asked, "Feifei, why don't those Demon Beasts co over to this mountain? I don't understand."
"Do you know what this mountain is called? It's known as Trapped Dragon Mountain. Legend has it that a Divine Dragon once appeared here. Divine Dragons are the Kings among Demon Beasts, so naturally, other beasts wouldn't dare approach a place it has been," Ye Feifei said with a smile.
"That sounds absurd. A na is enough to keep Demon Beasts away? I find that hard to believe," Ye Tian said, looking at Ye Feifei doubtfully.
"To be honest, I don't know the real reason either. All I know is that Demon Beasts almost never appear on this mountain, though regular wild animals are common. Your performance today really took by surprise!" Ye Feifei added with a smile.
"You should head back first. I want to stay here on the mountain and cultivate alone. Without any distractions, my Cultivation will be faster. Here, take this Inner Core. It's only fair that we each get one." After speaking, Ye Tian took out the Inner Core from the Gale Wolf.
Ye Feifei didn't refuse, understanding his intentions. "Alright, but be careful cultivating up here, Ye Tian. I'll co find you tomorrow. If I don't head back soon, my father will probably have the entire city searching for ."
The two then parted ways. Ye Feifei hurried back to her residence, while Ye Tian returned to his usual cultivation spot.
After the battle with the Gale Wolves, Ye Tian's proficiency with his Martial Skills and his control over his internal Dragon Spiritual Power had improved significantly. The Second Form of his Flowing Cloud Step had already reached the Perfect Realm. Now, only the final and most crucial form remained.
Seated atop a large boulder, Ye Tian began to ntally practice the Third Form. He sat perfectly still, like an old monk deep in ditation.
Ye Tian didn't open his eyes until after midnight, a joyful smile spreading across his face. "I never imagined the Third Form would be this powerful. If I ever run into another Gale Wolf, I'd love to test my speed against it."
