SOUL LAND: Star Dou Forest part(1/?)
It has been a year in Nouding Academy I have progressed very far in swordplay and *Phantom Step* now the timing is greatly decreased in activating this technique and the range is also now 110 meters I still couldn't grasp the third energy at first I thought that wish is not granted but now I can sense a little bit of it so it is there but can't be fully utilized as of yet, a month ago I condensed my 1st spirit ring. It is equivalent to a 7000-year spirit beast but cast an illusion to look like a 100-year spirit beast.
Anyone would feel like their world got destroyed when they find out about the fact that my 1st spirit ring is 1000-years. Normal Logic and Sense of this world doesn't apply on me. I have completed my task for graduation from this elementary academy to reach rank 15 and asked the director if I can leave the School. He agreed quite easily even if he didn't want for me to go I would have run from its not like he would be able to catch me.
Annual Vacation is a month ahead Tang San told me he will bring Xiao Wu along with them but I told him that I won't go back to the village and I'm leaving the Academy.
Annual Vacation
"We will meet again Brother Chen"
"Yes if fate allows us then we will"
"Take care" After saying Goodbyes I left for Star Dou Forest to practice some combat with the beast last time when I came here by saying that I want to obtain a spirit ring I didn't have much time as condensing 7000-year ring took most of my time.
Do you want to know what ability I got from my 1st ring, it's more of a buff to my every status Power, agility, speed, and perception. from the time of activation till 10 minutes my every status is increased by 30%, and the more strong I will be without 1st ring the more powerful the buff will be. I call it *BOOST*
(A/N: and Boost is the secret of my energy. WTF go google it)
Right now I'm at Rank 19 but I registered as 15 to not cause trouble about the insane growth rate.
There is two way to enter in Star Dou Forest either through the gate which is under Spirit Hall but there you have to show the pass to enter and the other is 100kms away from the gate where the boundary walls can't be constructed but it is also dangerous as due to the fact that 300-meter wide and god knows how deep crack exists. Naturally only people who are above Spirit Sage can cross this crack but that doesn't apply to me I can pull *Phantom Step* 6 times now and the range is 110 meters each time.
But I soon thought that going through the gate was a better option because some Beast welcomed me even before I landed on the other side of the crack. thanks to *Phantom Step* I managed to avoid any injuries. And took out my Sword and assumed a battle stance. The beast was a snake type his scales were shining and of green color reflecting sunlight and he had these two long fangs the size of the snake was roughly about 7-8 meters. I can tell that this one was 1000 years or reached the bottleneck for sure. I can tell by his looks that he was also observing me there is a faint but visible intelligence, he wasn't attacking me as the other beasts did when I first entered the forest on instinct but he was trying to attack and catch me off guard. the beast was Datura Snake the 1st ability of Tang San comes from this snake but it was larger than the one Xiao San killed.
"It was your bad luck that you met me here you could have just gone in hiding but not anymore now you will be mine training dummy for a bit"
I dashed forward with enveloping my sword with spirit energy so its sharpness can be increased. I slashed from up to bottom but hell happened.
"Is the sword isn't sharp enough or the strike didn't contain momentum" I retreated a safe distance and while keeping my eye on the snake I slashed a tree beside me and it was a clean cut.
"Hmm! So you are tougher than the opponents I'm used to" I smirked don't know why but for some reason the Adrenaline was rushing through my whole body.
This time the snake attacked by hitting me with his body I dodged but that was anticipated by the snake and he was ready to spit venom but I turned mid-air and inserted the sword right in his mouth. I can see he was in pain after that but can't do anything about this in this world it is "Either Kill, or be killed" I killed him but it didn't benefit me anyway since I can't absorb its ring. It looks like I need to find some different less-lethal moves so I can train without running out of options because at my current strength going head to head with a 1000 year beast with limiting myself not to kill him I would be the first one to die here. I will start by 100 years but with those who are above 600 years.
