Peak Level Spirit Apprentice
Yuan walked forward in a calm manner, his gaze filled with nonchalance as he laid his eyes on the Jade Frog.
Without even talking he just slashed at the Jade Frog
The Jade Frog instinctively leaped back, but its movements were too slow when compared to Yuan's sword strike, and it split in half in mid-air, causing organs and blood to fly everywhere.
"As expected it is too weak I didn't even use a technique and he got split in half

<Player Yuan has become the first player to have killed Elite Boss: Jade Frog!>

After Yuan sliced the Frog Xiao Hua walked towards where the dead frog laid while explaining to Yuan about Monster Cores.
"When monsters die, some of them will drop a monster core." Xiao Hua shoved her entire arm into the Jade Frog's corpse without flinching and pulled out a small crystal a moment later. "Monster cores are very important to Cultivators because they can greatly assist them in cultivation with Qi stored inside."
"Here you go, Brother Yuan." She handed Yuan the monster core.
"Finally..." he thought while throwing the monster core in his mouth without any hesitation.
And as he expected

<1,980,000 1,280,000>
<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough>

<All stats +900>

"Brother Yuan, did you just have a breakthrough?" Xiao Hua asked after a long silence, her voice filled with disbelief.
"I did..." he answered with a grin
Xiao Hua looked at Yuan with a pondering gaze. "Brother Yuan's cultivation base was only at the early stages of Seventh Level Spirit Apprentice before consuming the Jade Frog monster core. Even if Brother Yuan consumes the entire Jade Frog monster core, he shouldn't be able to break through to Eighth Level Spirit Apprentice right away and would only be halfway there..."
"Additionally, Brother Yuan also directly absorbed the entire monster core and did not receive any backlash but had a breakthrough instead... Xiao Hua has never seen anything like this before..."
"It is because of my Heaven Refining Physique" Yuan said
Xiao Hua only tilted her head. "Heaven Refining Physique? Xiao Hua has never heard of it before..."
"Its a Physique that allows me to consume monster cores" Yuan briefly explained
Xiao Hua's eyes widened in shock as Yuan's revelation sank in, and a mixture of disbelief and awe filled her. She felt proud that her Brother is having such a Heaven defying Physique.
"Anyway let go hunt some monster" Yuan said while Xiao Hua nodded
Thus, the two began slaughtering every monster that crossed paths with them... or more precisely, every monster that was unfortunate enough to be in that area.

<Player Fire Red, Player Poisoned Fiend, Mad Dog, and Get Creamed has become the first players to have cleared Burning Cave for time! Congratulations!>
An announcement hung above the clouds as Yuan decapitated six silver wolves
After the wolves, Yuan retrieved all monster cores he had collected during this grind.
"Ten monster cores huh" Yuah said then he threw 2 monster cores into his mouth.
<Heaven Refining Physique activated>
<560,000 Qi has been refined from the Silver Needle Wolf's monster core>
<600,000 Qi has been refined from the Silver Needle Wolf's monster core>

<All stats +1000>

Xiao Hua didn't react too much since Yuan briefly explained to her about his Physique.
Suddenly, Xiao Hua turned her head, and her gaze narrowed. "Brother Yuan, there are people near us..."
"I really should learn to use Divine Sense maybe after I breakthrough to Spirit Warrior" Yuan thought.
"Three people — two Seventh Level Spirit Apprentice and one Eighth Level Spirit Apprentice, and they are fighting a peak-level Fiery Lizard." Xiao Hua continued
"I am interested," said Yuan even though he is not. "Let's go take a look."
"Un"

<Three young adults, two male, and one female stood a few meters away from giant lizard with red scales that had black lines spread across like burn marks lightning strike. Their gaze flickered continuously fear nervousness, underneath their clothes was body covered in sweat. They have been fighting this Fiery Lizard for many minutes, yet none of them able to break through Lizard's defense.>
"You two can leave, but I will stay here until either one of us dies! My life depends on this Fiery Lizard's monster core!" Mo Zhou bit his lips until it bled, but he continued to look at the Fiery Lizard with narrowed eyes filled with determination. "Either I die here or I return to the sect and die there! Since I will die either way, I might as well put everything on the line at this moment!"
"Then die here! I only helped you out of pity!" said the male before he turned to run away from the fight.
"This wouldn't be happening if you didn't offend Senior apprentice-brother Ren!" The female also abandoned the fight. Neither of those two was willing to risk their lives for him despite being friends for many years.

After Yuan arrived there was only Mo Zhou facing the Fiery Lizard
"Should I save him" Yuan thought "Let's save him since he will be the reason I fight the blood sect" decided Yuan with a grin.
He calmy walked towards the Fiery Lizard then he used Bloody Sword Strike.
"Bloody Sword Strike!"
The Spirit Sword easily penetrated the unsuspected Fiery Lizard's steel-like scales and directly pierced its heart, instantly killing it with one strike.

I know that this is a short chapter the reason for that is I was thinking about how should he deal with Mo Zhou either he leaves him to die or save him as the OG did in the end I decided to save him.
Since I didn't see any beneficial reason to let him die.
Thanks for reading
Anyone knows at which chapter Yuan fought the Blood Sect I want to check something.
