Chapter 176 Eighth Level of the Qi Sea Stage, the End of Winter Break
In a corner of the abandoned city, a dozen or so Redback Jackals were growling in low voices as they left deep pawprints in the snow.
They surrounded a figure and kept attacking it. But at every critical moment, this figure would dodge them. Sometimes, a few Redback Jackals would be fooled. If they were not careful, they would bump into each other.
This person made all sorts of moves, but they were all very stable. His True Energy was endless. Even in such an intense battle, his physical strength was not lacking. He was very steady. It was as if he was taking a stroll through the forest. In front of him was a terrifying Redback Jackal that was obviously stronger than others.
A commander level Redback Jackal!
Most Redback Jackals were in the Qi Sea Stage. A commander-level Redback Jackal was only equivalent to the peak of the Qi Sea Stage. If an Energy Refinement Stage Redback Jackal were to appear, it would definitely be the king of the Redback Jackals in this area. It would not only be commanding dozens of Redback Jackals, but hundreds of them.
The person facing this commander-level Redback Jackal was none other than Chu Yunfan.
Chu Yunfan was using the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations, and from time to time, he would perform the Nine Cyclone Phantoms and the Wind-haze Form. He was alternating between the three movement techniques, and his usage was superb. That was why he was able to enter such a desolate place that contained so many Redback Jackals. He could even go against commander-level Redback Jackals.
This commander-level Redback Jackal was already at the peak of the Qi Sea Stage. Compared to the current Chu Yunfan, it was slightly stronger. However, Chu Yunfan’s movement techniques were too exquisite. No matter how this commander-level Redback Jackal pounced, it was difficult for it to even touch the corner of Chu Yunfan’s clothes.
On the contrary, Chu Yunfan continuously struck out with his knife and left wound after wound on the commander-level Redback Jackal.
Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
The commander-level Redback Jackal roared furiously. It felt that it could bite this two-legged creature to death. But in reality, it had no way of truly injuring this guy in front of it.
Chu Yunfan was in a mysterious state. After a few days, he had felt the opportunity for his breakthrough presented before him. And this time, he did not need to go into seclusion because the barrier of the eighth level of the Qi Sea Stage was already on the verge of collapse after continuous attacks over the past few days. He could step into the eighth level at any time. There was therefore no need for him to go into seclusion. He only needed to cultivate normally, and he would take this step at any time now.
He felt that he was already at the threshold of the eighth level of the Qi Sea Stage. He only needed to push a little more and he would enter the eighth level. He was in a curious state. Under this state, the rate at which he absorbed experience far exceeded his normal state. Even a dozen Redback Jackals—not even a commander-level Redback Jackal—could touch him.
Soon, soon. Everything will happen soon enough!
At the edge of the battlefield, Gao Hongzhi and Tang Siyu each drew the attention of a Redback Jackal to kill and then stood guard for Chu Yunfan who was on the battlefield. They had warned him. They were afraid that if he made any mistakes, they would not be able to save him in time.
“F*ck, he’s really going against the Heavens. He’s playing with that commander-level Redback Jackal which is at the peak of the Qi Sea Stage,” Gao Hongzhi said in a perplexed voice as he looked at Chu Yunfan from afar.
He knew that he would not have been able to accomplish such a feat. Chu Yunfan was able to do this because his movement techniques were strong enough. If it were Gao Hongzhi, with his level of the Nine Cyclone Phantoms, he would probably be chased up and down.
Tang Siyu nodded and said, “He’s about to breakthrough. This battle is what he wants. If he can borrow the pressure of this commander-level Redback Jackal to break through to the eighth level of the Qi Sea Stage, that would be the best!”
“Haha, I suddenly want to rush to the school exchange meet. I want to see Yunfan beat up the geniuses of those focus high schools,” Gao Hongzhi said after stabbing the Redback Jackal in front of him to death with his spear. “I can already see it happening!”
“Let’s worry about ourselves. There are only a few days left. We are only one step away from breaking through. Right now, I’m also considering whether to put myself in danger and force myself to break through,” Tang Siyu also said after killing the Redback Jackal in front of her.
Other than Chu Yunfan who was one step away from breaking through, they were also facing the same problem. Tang Siyu was only half a step away from stepping into the eighth level of the Qi Sea Stage, and Gao Hongzhi was also just a little bit away from stepping into the seventh level. They had experienced much during this winter vacation and have made great progress.
As soon as they finished speaking, they heard Chu Yunfan shout. All the True Energy in his body began to vibrate. His movements seemed to have been reborn. He had reached a new level. His saber technique instantly became sharper, faster, and more terrifying. In just two or three moves, he had defeated the commander-level Redback Jackal in front of him.
If Chu Yunfan’s previous saber strikes could cut bloody marks on the Redback Jackal’s body, now, each of Chu Yunfan’s saber strikes could cut through the bones of the Redback Jackal.
“Flow Cut!”
Chu Yunfan let out an explosive shout. His figure instantly appeared beside this commander-level Redback Jackal. All the strength in his body surged into the Shadowless Saber as he brought it down.
Slash!
Fresh blood spurted out. The commander-level Redback Jackal was instantly cut into two. The two halves of its body struggled on the ground for a while before it stopped moving.
When the other Redback Jackals saw their leader being killed, they immediately scattered. They did not dare to stay any longer, looking less fearless than before.
“Hahaha, Yunfan, you’ve finally broken through,” Gao Hongzhi said as he strode over.
“Yes, I’ve broken through. The eighth level of the Qi Sea Stage!” Chu Yunfan said as he put away his saber.
In terms of actual combat strength, he was fearless unless he was going against someone in the Energy Refinement Stage. The fact that the Redback Jackal—who was at the peak of the Qi Sea Stage—was killed by him in just a few moves was proof of that.
Now, he was much stronger than before.
“Let’s go. There are still a few days left. I’ll guard and help you breakthrough,” Chu Yunfan said, “We’re going to show off our skills at the school exchange meet!”
In the blink of an eye, days flew by. The school exchange meet was just around the corner.
