The Journey To Become The Strongest
Chapter 9 — Yama Mountains (3)
Lian Haocun neither responded nor reacted with praise to the female animal with the rare offspring.
“Then we excuse you. If you need help, you can call Lian Huanran or me.”
Then Lian Haocun left, Lian Huanran bowed once as a sign of respect to the Winged Yellow Tiger that was stronger than himself and Lian Haocun then followed Lian Haocun.
They embarked on a short journey to return to their former place near the 'mouth' of the cave.
“The magical beast is very friendly! Oh yeah, what animals of rare descent can talk since they were born?”
Lian Haocun answered Lian Huanran's question, “No, rare and common animals must reach level-6 first to be able to speak human languages, but legendary animals of descent can already speak from birth.”
Lian Huanran nodded his head understanding, “Sister, knowledge is all from where?”
Lian Haocun replied briefly, “Book.”
Lian Huanran nodded his head again, then Lian Huanran started asking continuously until they reached their previous place which was not far from the ‘mulut’ cave.
“Ah... There should be no magical beasts in this cave. After all they must have been suppressed by the pressure of the Winged Yellow Tiger.”
Lian Haocun nodded his head approving of Lian Huanran's words.
Then Lian Haocun began to study the scrolls of the Blue Lotus Movement until morning. While Lian Huanran who felt a little sleepy fell asleep. Time passed without feeling, midnight passed and morning arrived. Sunlight shone on the inside of the cave, making Lian Huanran uncomfortable until she was forced to open her eyes.
“Uh... Glare.” Lian Huanran.
His eyes that were green like a meadow were illuminated by the sunlight that shone on the Cave. Then he looked at Lian Haocun who was still studying the Blue Lotus Movement scrolls seriously.
“Silver studying Rolls overnight?” Lian Huanran asked the real answer was certain.
“Hm..” Lian Haocun let out a short mutter.
“Ya. Then let's find breakfast.” Take Lian Huanran to Lian Haocun who still looked at the Scroll seriously.
Lian Haocun put the scroll into the storage ring and then he approved Lian Huanran's invitation. They walked outside the cave and were greeted by a hot and bright sun that shone down on the entire Yama Mountains.
“To which direction will we hunt?” Lian Huanran asked for her brother's opinion and responded with one word, “West.”
They went hunting west. Since they had yet to find a single magical beast, Lian Huanran grew bored and started her never-ending grievance until Lian Hoacun ordered her to be quiet.
Lian Haocun's one-word order instantly made Lian Huanran not dare to babble anymore. Lian Haocun said to warn Lian Huanran,
As if agreeing to Lian Haocun's guess, there sounded a loud Lion roar that did not sound too far from where Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran were. “Retreat!”
Lian Haocun reminded Lian Huanran quickly, but before Lian Huanran could run back to the Cave. The 5-level lion had already jumped up to block the path of Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran. Lian Huanran was a bit trembling against a lion that was bigger than him so his words were filled with nervousness,
“Sister! This lion is equivalent to the Core Formation stage we will not be able to handle!”
Lian Haocun ordered Lian Huanran to calm down. Then Lian Haocun took out a black sword from his storage ring, a strong killing intent felt from the black sword.
“Find where to attack and hide then practice the techniques from the Scrolls you learned.”
Lian Hoacun's orders to Lian Huanran in a calm tone that really didn't match the tense situation, though, but thanks to that Lian Huanran gained control over himself and started looking for a suitable place to attack.
Realizing one of his prey was blurred, the Lion roared loudly exerting invisible pressure on Lian Huanran. Lian Huanran did not stop and tried to escape from the pressure by enveloping his entire body with a protective Spiritual Qi.
Lian Haocun had already taken an attacking position filled with vigilance. Along with the moment the Lion was about to start chasing after Lian Huanran, the fleeing prey, Lian Haocun attacked the Lion with his black sword.
The lion responded quickly, the sharp claws of the Lion clashing with Lian Haocun's black sword. As a result of the clash with unbalanced forces, Lian Haocun coughed up blood and was pushed back a few steps. The lion's position was not moved at all.
The lion did not let Lian Haocun rest at all and started attacking the ferocious Lian Haocun. The Lion's attention to his fleeing prey was replaced with Lian Haocun fighting him.
Lian Haocun had also reawakened in a short time after he was pushed back, too, he used his smaller body size than the Lion and flexibly dodged the sharp attacks of the claws of the Lion who only fought with animal instincts. Lian Haocun prepared to use the first move of the Blue Lotus Movement he had just learned in a very short period of time.
Lian Haocun moved the black sword to attack the Lion nimbly, the movement looked like a sword dance forming a lotus with Lian Haocun as the controller of the first movement of the 'Blue Lotus Movement.' The first movement of the 'Blue Lotus Movement.' should be done nimblely as well as having a strong spiritual Qi strength in each stab in the movement.
Lian Haocun moved the black sword until it formed a movement that looked beautiful but deadly. As if fusing with Lian Haocun, the black sword added a dangerous and deadly charm.
The scene was somewhat contradictory, one was a graceful, majestic and elegant beauty despite being only 10 years old while her weapon exuded an extremely opposite, dangerous and deadly aura with her killing intent, but the contrasting scenes fit perfectly into each other, creating a scene that looks beautiful yet deadly and terrorizing.
Although the move would definitely have a fatal impact on an opponent comparable to Lian Haocun, Lian Haocun's attack did not leave the Lion severely injured, only a minor wound from a sword scratch along with some movement effects. After all, the Lion was on par with the Core Formation stage which was one stage higher than Lian Haocun now.
The lion who did not believe that he was injured by a human who was even lower level than himself, roared loudly. Pressure pressed down on Lian Haocun who was not far around the Lion.
‘This is not enough.’
Lian Haocun got up and started attacking with the various basic sword techniques he had learned from Shen Wenhuan. The effect is not great, but very disturbing Lion.
‘It used to really suck.’
Fighting a Lion like this made Lian Haocun recall the memories in his first life.
