Chapter 72: (1): Levels of Techniques and Spiritual Arts
Long Xuan covered his face and swiftly approached the battlefield. Once he was a certain distance from the eagle flock, he waved his palm in the air, flames swirling around his palm, creating a long trail of fire. After gathering his strength, he struck the sky with a powerful blow.
"Blazing flame Palm!"
With a loud shout, a sea of fire spread instantly, engulfing the entire sky. The flames ignited the sky, forming a massive burning cloud.
The entire eagle flock was enveloped in the sea of fire, and the air was filled with the screams of black eagles.
Below, everyone felt a sudden wave of heat, and the brightness of the flames made it difficult for them to keep their eyes open.
They saw something falling from the sky like dumplings, some landing among the crowd, some among the wolf pack, causing the ground to tremble.
Everyone was stunned.
Before they could react to what was happening, a huge wave of fire rose from the ground, swallowing the wolf pack in an instant, accompanied by the howls of wolves.
In just a moment, the entire ground was covered in a sea of fire, so large that the wolves had nowhere to escape.
At that moment, both the sky and the ground were filled with fire, the heatwave was overwhelming, and everyone was sweating. As soon as the sweat appeared, it was evaporated by the intense heat.Everyone was gasping for breath, as if they were suffocating.
After his last battle, Long Xuan had realized the shortcomings of this move. So, after improvements and rigorous practice, he could now perfectly control the attack range of his Blazing flame Palm without injuring his teammates.
But even so, the flames, despite not touching them, made them feel like they were being roasted.
If the people on the ground felt like this, it was even worse for the wolves trapped in the sea of fire.
As the screams gradually weakened, the ground was left with charred wolf corpses, emitting a burnt smell.
Everyone stared in shock and disbelief at the scene before them.
Do not think that spiritual beasts, covered in fur, are extremely afraid of fire and catch fire easily.
It is not like that at all. Fireball techniques are among the most basic abilities, and anyone can release a fireball, but can it set a spiritual beast on fire? Far from it.
Both Gu practitioners and spiritual beasts can attach spiritual power to their bodies, forming a spiritual power shield, called spiritual armor.
Gu practitioners' spiritual armor can effectively prevent others from casting Gu on them, and spiritual beasts' spiritual armor can also block fire and other conventional damage.
So ordinary flames are completely ineffective against spiritual beasts; otherwise, this beast tide wouldn't be so hard to deal with. Wouldn't a fire attack wipe them all out?
But this sea of fire was completely different. Not only was it incredibly large, but it could easily burn through the spiritual armor of spiritual beasts.
In the face of such power, the numerical advantage of spiritual beasts was useless. Unless the spiritual beasts were of a high enough grade, they would all die in a sea of beasts.
Lei Yun swallowed heavily. Spiritual arts, body techniques, and techniques are divided into human, spiritual, earth, and heaven levels.
This spiritual art must have reached the heaven level! Who is this formidable person?
Heaven-level spiritual arts are completely unheard of in this region. Who is this person? Could they be a genius from a great clan from another region?
Lei Yun looked at the masked man who had joined the battlefield with shock, unable to recover for a long time.
Heaven-level spiritual arts have the power to destroy the world. Seeing it today was truly extraordinary, opening his eyes and filling him with awe.
"Brother! Thank you!"
Without further ado, he quickly rushed towards the eagle king that had fallen from the sky.
Long Xuan, due to his low level, could only clear out spiritual beasts below the late stage of the first rank with his big move.
He couldn't burn through the spiritual armor of peak first-rank spiritual beasts and beast kings with his flames.
So even though the ground was littered with beast corpses, there were still dozens of peak first-rank spiritual beasts alive.
But this situation had greatly reduced the pressure on the geniuses.
Not only had the pressure greatly reduced, but the number of geniuses now matched the number of spiritual beasts, giving them hope of victory.
Everyone was filled with hope, smiling with relief, confident in the upcoming battle, and eager to fight.
One by one, they charged at the remaining dozens of peak first-rank spiritual beasts with loud shouts.
Lei Yun, being the captain of the team, had only one target: the most troublesome eagle king in the sky.
Taking advantage of the rare opportunity of the eagle king falling to the ground, he immediately pounced on it, pinning it to the ground, rolling several times with the eagle.
His legs tightly wrapped around the eagle king's body, firmly clamping its wings to prevent it from taking flight again.
Once this thing took to the air, it would be impossible to fight, so Lei Yun would never allow it to fly again.
Long Xuan's target was also the eagle king. Upon arrival, he ran directly towards it.
While Lei Yun controlled the eagle king's body, Long Xuan disregarded the martial code and ruthlessly struck the eagle king's head.
"Life-destruction Palm! Life-destruction Palm! Life-destruction Palm..."
Long Xuan's palms moved swiftly, delivering countless strikes within a second.
Only when the eagle king's head drooped completely did he stop his attack.
Lei Yun was utterly shocked. The defensive power of a beast king is astounding; breaking its defense isn't easy.
What should have been a hard-fought, prolonged battle was easily resolved with a few palms?
And the eagle king's head showed no external injuries, yet it mysteriously died without a scratch. It was a bizarre death.
Could this palm technique be another heaven-level spiritual art? Does he have a wholesale supply of heaven-level spiritual arts? Lei Yun thought, utterly shocked.
He was about to speak but was stopped by Long Xuan's outstretched palm: "No need to thank me or ask my name. I never leave my name when doing good deeds."
Lei Yun's open mouth froze, leaving him bewildered.
Not leaving your name when doing good deeds is a traditional virtue, worthy of praise. But if you don't leave your name, you don't leave your name. What do you mean by taking the eagle king with you?
The eagle king was clearly killed by the two of them together. Even if they were to divide the spoils, it should be split evenly.
Everyone knows that the eagle king has a high drop rate and could produce peak-grade spiritual insects, and its entire body is worth a fortune.
Is it really okay to put it in your storage bag so openly?
Lei Yun wanted to speak but refrained in the end.
Forget it! After all, he is my lifesaver. I won't argue with him. Let's consider it as repayment for saving my life!
Could I really start a conflict with a mysterious person over this?
Lei Yun thought helplessly.
Seeing Long Xuan take the eagle king's body and leave the battlefield without any intention of helping further, Lei Yun's lips twitched. Is he just here to grab and go?
He seriously doubted whether this person came to save them at all. This person’s target was entirely the eagle king; they just happened to benefit from it.
He was bewildered, but after a moment of confusion, he turned back to the battlefield to help his teammates deal with the remaining peak first-rank spiritual beasts.
Although the mysterious person didn't continue to help, Lei Yun believed that with their combined strength, they could handle the remaining spiritual beasts, albeit at a significant cost.
Meanwhile, Lei Guang, hiding behind a boulder, watched the scene with a pale face, his clenched fists trembling. Finally, he slammed his fist into the boulder.
"Damn it! Meddlesome!"
He glared fiercely at Long Xuan's departing figure, his face contorted with rage, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
In the end, he got up and followed the person who ruined his plans...
