Yin & Yang Pleasures of Cultivation

Chapter 10: Full Prowess

Everything was seemingly normal as the youths trekked through the woods. There was no sign of Spirit Monsters nor any close noises of the rustling of grasses.

Although for some reason, while talking to Aniela, Anne was having this...strange but deadly premonition. It was like multiple eyes had just locked target on her.

Trusting her gut feeling, she immediately stopped dead in her tracks. Aniela kept an innocent, curious expression as she asked.

"Eh? What's wrong?"

The other Clansman shared the same confusion since they didn't feel the same premonition that only got stronger for Anne.

"It's... it's just...I don't know, but I feel like somet-"

"RWARGH!!!"

Out of the blue, cutting of Anne, several Spirit Monster loud thunderous roars reverberated throughout the whole woods! Darcel and Aniela acted along as the other youths' bodies tensed and spiked up.

The ground was trembling, grass and bushes were frantically rustling while the air swirled in a frenzy. Among all, everyone there suddenly felt the pressure slowly increase.

"Shit! I can just barely sense there's probably nine mad monsters rushing at us!" Anne roared out to warn the others. Now she finally understood that dangerous premonition from before.

And to make matters worse, there were at least two monsters from this group that neared her prowess!

"Just from their mere auras alone, most aren't that strong! Quickly rush them down!" Darcel shouted to them while his hand had secretly turned off its Darkness glow.

His face held a small devious grin as he locked his focus on two monsters specifically.

"Don't hesitate!" Aniela shouted right after and in sync with Darcel,

'Swish!'

The black and white duo rushed towards their respective monsters leaving the other behinds in the dust.

Their current distance from these monsters was several meters away, and frankly, this was the perfect time to strike. With Darcel stopping his Darkness call, the monsters were left temporarily confused.

The sudden strong magnetic attraction that brought them here had abruptly stopped! Their maddening rush halted a bit as their eyes attempted to scan the woods.

And in the wake of Darcel and Aniela, the rest of the youths sobered up as Anne shouted,

"Rash, but their right! Rush down these monsters!"

'Hua!'

Swiftly as Anne called it, the remaining of them sprinted towards their monsters to gain an advantage. Like Darcel said, their auras weren't so great that they would need to run away.

Plus, Anne felt competent enough in her prowess to truly kill everything off here if the others can't do it.

With a fire blazing in their eyes, the Clansmen all prepared for a great fight, unaware of the insidious planners behind them.

.

While Anne's group split off to the right, Darcel and Aniela rushed to their left. Three Spirit Monsters were over here, and Darcel thought this would be good practice for both of them.

These Spirit Monster beasts, Darcel could vaguely sense, are at his level, the mere sixth layer of the Qi Foundation realm.

With extreme precision and control, Darcel wouldn't be able to call out to something far stronger than him, leading him and Aniela to have some good target practice.

"Aniela, take on that fox, leave the two bears to me." Up in front of them were three terrifying giant beasts that would frighten any average weak cultivators out of their wits.

Two bears standing over ten feet tall with gross looking black fur, sharp bloody teeth, and piercing blue eyes! Moreover, these bears' eyes were clouded in confusion.

Their eyes darted all over the woods until focusing on the duo.

Next to the bears was a huge fox standing over five feet tall. Like the bears, it had sickly black fur, and in contrast, it had pointed ears plus an extraordinarily long tail.

The fox monster yellow eyes had also locked on to the rushing duos.

"Let's finish it in record time!" Aniela excitedly responded to Darcel. Just like him, she also felt a rush when battling and would never shy away from a fight.

"Auroo!!"

The Spirit Monsters shouted in sync and blasted off to the rushing duo! With each step the bears took, the ground slightly shook, and trees quiver from their sheer weight.

The Spirit fox beast nearly blended into the dark, dreary wood color, essentially going incognito with its extreme speed.

Yet, this matters little for Darcel and Aniela.

For the first time in their lives, the two were now going to go all out! Even with all other previous fights they had, including those in this world, the two were cautious about using the full extent of their prowess.

Showing off without sufficient planning was never a smart thing to do. But now, with these levels of beasts, it was the appropriate time.

In only a split second, the duo closed their eyes and connected with their souls. Instantly, they willed far out more Qi than ever, significantly amplifying their bodies.

And once the two felt their bodies strained, their eyes snapped open! Power, far greater than they ever felt before, course through their entire bodies.

They felt like an entirely different being!

Darcel's eyes flashed a dark glow while Aniela's flashed a white brilliance. Their legs tightened and the several meters distance in front of them,

'Hua!'

Was crossed in a single step by the duo! Quite literally, the dirt split apart from their speeds, and the air swirled uncontrollably. And their sudden acceleration caused massive reactions.

The Spirit Monsters bears, and fox only felt the wind's razing gush before two massive auras pressed down on them. Their eyes widened like saucers, and the whole bodies felt instinctive danger.

It was like clockwork! Just out of the blue, did the duo magically increase their prowess to majorly suppress them!

Acting in tandem once again, Darcel jumped up and used both of his hands to stab towards one of the bears' eyes. And Aniela shot a clean, glowing fist to the fox head.

'Bang!'

The fox couldn't react at all to Aniela's insane speed and was sent flying like a bullet! Aniela's sheer power made the fox sail through trees, breaking them down with little to no resistance.

Watching her work, Aniela cracked a small smirk and rushed down the fox once again.

'Chi!'

At the same time, when Aniela struck the fox, Darcel plunged his fingers deep into the bear's eyes!

"Ruoo!!"

The Spirit monster bear unleashed a painful wailing cry as Darcel's fingers met no resistance when striking his eyes. It felt like watery tofu when Darcel punctured the bear's eyes.

Fresh, bright red blood dripped down its fur coat, and the bear knees nearly buckled from the pain. Darcel knew there was no need to fight some long drawn out battle with defense toughen bears.

And at their stage, one of the significant soft, weak points of such a formidable creature was it defenseless eyes.

"RUOO!!"

While Darcel was momentarily stuck in the air by his fingers in the bear, the other bear unleashed a maddening roar!

It couldn't see Darcel's first attack, but now that he's in its line of sight, there's no way he can dodge now!

Swiftly, the bear claws grew longer and sharper while its black fur had seemingly sharpened. The bear roar had gotten the other bear to stop flailing around and hold Darcel in place.

A murderous glint entered the second bear eyes and, with insane speed, struck out with its claw to the now still Darcel!

Throughout this whole time, Darcel could have moved, but it wasn't the right time. Now, as he saw the second bear's terrifying claw paw come at him, Darcel gained his own maddening smile.

In all of one second, Darcel took his fingers out of the bears gushing blood everywhere in the woods. Speedily, he had then clamped on the bear's massive head and nimbly flipped himself on top of its head!

Darcel's moves were like a nimble rat, and before the second bear could realize it, its claw paw headed straight towards the first bear throat!

'Chi!'

Ruthlessly the second bear claw paw tore into the bear's throat, shredding out blood like a waterfall. Everything happens far too fast that neither bear's brain could process what just happened.

All the first bear could feel was its throat getting torn and blood bubbling into its mouth. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be nearly as easy for either bears to one shot each other.

But thanks to Darcel, the first bear felt its blood swirled frantically, bringing upon chaotic primal emotions that heavily affected its mind. Plus, getting stabbed in the eyes also majorly lowered its Qi defenses.

"And now"

Darcel said to himself as both his feet glowed a deep dark glow. Before the bears could have the time to react Darcel lifted his foot up and,

'Bang!'

Cruelly stomped upon the first bear skull like it was an annoying bug. Instantly by the force of Darcel's stomp, the bear felt its head cracked, and its brain flattened!

Blood gushed out of every pore of its head while the light left its eyes. And ignoring the bear's death, Darcel immediately turned its attention to the still shocked second bear.

It simply couldn't get any breathing at all! Only two seconds after it plunged its claw into the first bear throat and Darcel stomping on its head, he acted again!

Hastily, the bear took its claw of the first bear throat letting its corpse fall to the ground with a sickening wet thumb. Its head then snapped up, trying to find Darcel only to see empty air.

But its ears soon heard the chilling piercing words of a young boy saying,

"Now it's your turn!"

'Bang!'

Darcel fiercely stomped upon the bear head, causing a sickening crunch like noise to shatter out from the impact. His foot had even sunken a bit into the bear head by his sheer overwhelming prowess.

Upon the bear face right now was gushes of blood pouring out of every single pore of its massive head. Tremendous pain dazed its whole body, yet it could hold on compared to the first bear.

But in this position, there was no way Darcel would give this bear the chance to counter-attack.

Using his insane speeds, Darcel swiftly turned around and hopped off the bear head. In this position, Darcel came face to face with a bloody bear and its bloodshot eyes.

Without missing a single beat, Darcel blitzed his fist towards the bear's right eye and plunged it deep in there!

Blood gushed out like a fountain from his strike, blowing out in the dark black woods. And for the Spirit Monster bear, its last line of sight was Darcel coldly smirking at it while he pulled his fist out of its head.

Taking his fist out, Darcel safely landed on the ground. Simultaneously, the second bear corpse crashed into the ground with yet another sickening wet thumb.

Turning around in Aniela's direction, Darcel was left wondering if that girl was as quick as him

.

Unknown to Darcel, Aniela finished her fight even quicker than his.

Right when Darcel began to fight against the bears, she sped off towards the sailing fox. Her hand was still glowing white and seemed to brighten up as she rushed to the fox.

And right when the fox looked, it was going to reorientate itself in midair, Aniela fist out her glowing white hand.

Behind the wolf, the top half of a large black wood tree began to shine a bright white glow! The fox couldn't pay attention to this at all, and all it did saw was Aniela squeezing her hand.

When the Spirit fox landed on the ground, it suddenly heard a snap! A large towering shadow covered over it, and its instinct screamed danger.

Hastily, the fox attempted to run but,

'Bang!'

The large tree fell with speeds far superior to the fox and smashed it into the ground! Aniela's telekinesis was all but impossible for the fox to escape, plus this fall caused far more damage than an average fall.

Swiftly Aniela caught up the fallen tree and used her telekinesis to roll the tree away from the squashed fox.

In a small crater, the fox laid still, seamlessly utterly defeated. However, Aniela knew better than to fall for Spirit Monsters' simple tricks.

Her hand flashed towards the fox head as the beast snapped its eyes open. But even if it could feel Aniela's hand coming towards it, her speed still utterly trampled upon it.

Quickly, Aniela grabbed the fox head, and immediately a white glow shrouded the fox head.

"This might feel a bit tight"

Aniela said it as some sort of joke while the fox promptly felt its head get tightly squeeze. Pain immediately overtook its senses, and on the inside of its body, a white glow appeared around its brain.

Smiling at the fox pain-wracked eyes, Aniela tightly clutched her hand, and with a sickening pop inside the fox head, its brain turned into a bloody mushed!

While Aniela's telekinesis was limited on what she could truly control. If one is at the same level at her and she gets her hand on them, it was basically over for her enemies.

Letting go of the fox head and letting its brainless corpse fall to the ground, Aniela stretched out her body, feeling mighty refreshed and refined from this short battle.

"I seem to finish this up a bit too quickly. Oh well, might as well take my time to get to Darcy~.' She gleefully thought and didn't believe Darcel needed help taking down the bears.

Aniela already had enough trust in Darcel to believe if he says he can do it, he'll do it no matter what.

Casually she walked back to Darcel's spot and soon saw him finishing off the second bear with one clean eye strike.

"We make such a perfect duo, Darcy! So now that this is all done, should we wait a bit before going back to the others?" Aniela had cheerfully gone up to Darcel, who was using his Darkness to get rid of the blood on his hands.

"We may have finished too fast...I suppose we should wait so we can have the perfect opportunity. Oh, and good job."

Without warning, Darcel tenderly patted Aniela's head.

It caused the girl's face to lit up in a massive smile as she leaned her head more into Darcel's hand.

"See! You are a caring person! You remember every little thing I told you during our Parsol time!" Aniela was really giddy and riled up, but Darcel couldn't really understand.

Because she liked it and he liked it, Darcel saw it as natural to pat her soft head if he feels like it necessary or he wants to do it.

But even so, with Aniela pure joy and happiness Darcel did form a small genuine smile as he told her,

"Caring or not, I'll always keep my words. And now we have just one more word to deliver to a certain, forceful group"
