"So, where are we going?" Lying on his back, Yue Bin asked with a curious expression.
"Hunt some monster beasts and improve my strength." Qin opened his mouth and rushed towards the forest. Previously, he didn't dare to go deep but now his strength has completely changed.
He had another goal.
Get the bones of stronger monsters and improve his Rakshasa Transformation. He hasn't forgotten the devil cultivation technique. Although he didn't get a chance to improve it till now, he still knows how much he needs this.
Of course, his main goal was still the same. He wanted to improve his swordsmanship and the best way is to fight without any constraint. In the middle of the forest, there are many High-Rank monsters. With his current strength, only Essence Transformation or High-Rank monster can push him to the edge.
As he walked in, he encountered the River of End and Beginning. This river was pretty confusing because nobody has learned more about the source of this river. And, how could a river start from one point and end at the exact point?
It doesn't work like that. He knew this river was hiding some serious information. But, he had no way of knowing anything about it. He crossed the river and dashed towards the middle of the forest.
Roar!
Suddenly, a loud roar shook the trees and a huge stomp break the ground. Qin immediately turned around and saw a giant creature rushing from the side.
This creature had the legs like an elephant, head like a tiger, and a body like a mixture of both. Normally, it is not hard to see creatures like this because they are rare. But, Qin was very excited. This creature was called Tiger Mammoth.
This creature had the strength of an elephant and the bite force of a tiger. The Tiger Mammoth sensed the endless fighting intent from Qin and roared. It rushed towards Qin but its big feet made its movement slow.
Qin also saw him and asked Yue Bin to retreat. She did as he said. After all, she can't interfere in this fight. The Tiger Mammoth is a High-Rank monster. She will be crushed if she tries to fight it.
Qin clenched his fist and loaded on his strength in it. He stomped his feet on the ground and dashed towards the Tiger Mammoth. He raised his hand and smashed his fist straight to the Tiger Mammoth's head.
Unlike normal tiger, this creature has one major disadvantage. It couldn't raise its foot and smash Qin. But, the moment Qin threw his fist, the tiger mammoth stomped its four legs on the ground.
Thud! Bang!
Suddenly, the ground beneath Qin slipped away and Qin hits the ground with his jaws. For a moment, he didn't understand how the ground slipped. But, the next moment he saw the Tiger Mammoth jumping above him with all of its force.
Without even thinking for a moment, Qin rolled away from the impact. But, when the Tiger Mammoth fell, the entire ground cracked. The ground beneath him cracked as well but he quickly managed to hang himself by holding the ground.
He doesn't want to fall inside the ground because he doesn't know the danger inside. And, something unknown is the most dangerous thing.
Whoosh!
He pushed him in the air and spun. The next moment he landed on his two feet and dashed towards the Tiger Mammoth. Because the Tiger Mammoth was facing another way, he knew this was his chance.
Bang!
Forcing out his strength from his right fist, he smashed the back of the Tiger Mammoth. The powerful collision resulted in Qin being smashed on the ground. Qin froze for a moment as he blinked his eyes twice.
He didn't understand how all of his power got rebounded. Just when he tried to figure out the gap, he heard another roar from the side. His expression completely froze.
There was another Tiger Mammoth staring at him. And, this mammoth seemed to be equally strong as the previous mammoth.
'Damn! I didn't find any monsters previously but now I find monster after monster. Is this some kind of prank?' Qin couldn't help but curse as he tried to stand. At this moment, one tiger mammoth in front of him, another tiger mammoth behind him.
Both had their eyes set on Qin. But his worries got even worse when he remembered Yue Bin was still here. Fortunately, she had already climbed up in the tree otherwise this could've gone messier.
"Rakshasa Transformation!"
Qin didn't hesitate to enter the devil mode. The black scales started emerging around his body. A pair of horns appeared on his head and his face started turning red truly like a devil. Sensing the devil energy bursting out of him, those mammoths stepped back.
Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!
But, the next moment they roared with anger gushing out of their eyes. They instantly rushed towards Qin. Seeing both of them, Qin didn't wait around. He instantly jumped in the air and a sword appeared in his hand.
Seeing the sword, Yue Bin's expression slightly changed.
'Why is he using the sword during devil transformation?'
She knew Qin could use a sword but she thought Qin would rely on his fist. Since the devil transformation had improved his physical strength. Qin raised his hand and condensed the massive amount of sword energy in his sword.
"Wind Splitting Sword Art- Splitting the Wind"
One meter-long blade made out of red sword energy emerged out of his sword energy. It moved straight to the Tiger Mammoth at the left and slashed its body.
Splash!
When the sword slashed its hard muscle, Qin was left stunned in the air. Originally, he thought he would injure the Tiger Mammoth to a certain extent, but he didn't expect to make such a deep wound.
"Lightning Drawing Sword Art- Lightning Bolt!"
Qin hastily puts his sword on a sheath and condenses the sword energy and qi on his sword. The moment he pulls out his sword, a bolt of lightning strikes the Tiger Mammoth.
Splash!
This time, three inches deep hole appeared on the tiger mammoth. This made him even more confused. He knew his swordsmanship hasn't improved but then why did his strikes get so lethal? Is that why he was able to kill the Qi Condensation in a single stroke during that cave incident.
"Yes, you are correct, young master. You didn't kill him because he didn't try to block your sword rather his physical body wasn't strong enough. Just the fourth stage sword energy isn't strong enough to hurt them. That's why your sword energy was barely injuring the previous man who attacked you."
"Whenever you use the sword, your physical strength amplifies the power of sword energy. There is a man whose strength is equal to my master. But, he isn't as good as a master in terms of swordsmanship. The only reason why he could fight master is because of his immense physical strength, sword technique, and bloodlines."
Hearing Xiao Lan's words, Qin frowned and asked "Did that man use other things to amplify the power of his sword? By the way, you said he is strong as your master. That means he is still alive, right?"
"….. Yes, he is alive. There is no one in the world who can kill him, even the master can't unless the master is also prepared to die. He wasn't a true swordsman like a master but he is still a billion times better than you." Xiao Lan froze for a moment and answered.
Qin got speechless after hearing his words.
'Of course, he would be a billion times stronger than me when there is no one in this world who can kill him. But, how did he use other things to amplify his sword? Did he use his some sort of techniques?' Qin couldn't help but get curious.
At this moment, Xiao Lan answered "Yes, he did use a sword technique. He created this technique especially for himself. And, I think this technique matches your devil transformation completely. Do you want to learn it?"
Roar! Roar
Just when Qin was about to answer, he heard the roar from below. He was using Soaring Dragon Art to stay on the air but he didn't expect the Tiger Mammoth to rush towards Yue Bin.
"Second Step- Soaring Bird!"
The powerful wind blew behind him and pushed him towards the Tiger Mammoth. He took a deep breath while his feet landed on the ground. The next moment, his wind manipulation exploded behind his foot.
"Third Step- Soaring Dragon"
"Wind Splitting Sword Art- Breaking the Ground!"
Splash! Splash!
The power of the devil flowed in his arm, the sword energy exploded like a volcano, and his body shot towards them like a cannonball. Before they could reach the tree, another two appeared in his hand.
He extended his arms and sword energy flowed inside his sword, alongside wind qi. He moved between the Tiger Mammoth as his swords slashed their body. His sword pierced nearly five inches deep while cutting from the butt to the head.
Splash! Thud
As he stopped after his sword cut them, the blood slashed towards his body. The wind qi suddenly burst out and formed a defensive barrier. As it blocked the blood, Qin transformed back to his human form while asking.
