The Way of the Sword (BL)

Chapter 5: Hunting the Wolves

NOT EDITED

....

Song Yan returned to the camp, Yi Yuga was sitting cross-legged cultivated in silence, which surprised, pleasantly, Brother Yan who was pleased with Yi Yuga's talent to keep concentration on training.

Of course, Song Yan could not imagine that Yi Yuga was only engaging so much because of him, this green-eyed young man was devoting himself so much just because his brother Yan asked him to give his best.

Unknowingly, the heart of Yi Yuga had Song Yan as a family, a very important person for an orphan, soon he could make him tries harder and fight higher and higher so as not to leave Song Yan disappointed.

After all, Song Yan had given him a mysterious and powerful technique to train, so that he could take the test and enter into a great sect, that would be a debt to life, of course, Yi Yuga would not mention it, for Brother Yan would deny this debt or would be indifferent, then he could only keep that feeling of gratitude in his heart and strive more and more.

Song Yan silently entered the hut and lay down on the bed made of straw, his bright brown eyes staring at the ceiling, his breathing was calm and his heartbeat quietly, though his mind was chaotic.

Song Yan was still a little afraid to think of the powerful cultivator he encountered on the grounds of the destroyed mansion. The man showed disdain and indifference even with a deadly wound on his body, which showed how much Song Yan was an ant in his specialist eyes!

Song Yan lifted his little hand in front of his face and pressed his hand into a fist, he remembered the man's great calloused hand, his hand was cold, but strangely he felt connected to this mysterious man. Then he prayed that this man could recover, but that they did not cross paths again, because he did not want to get involved in something big, he wanted to keep his profile hidden until he could awaken his bloodline.

Song Yan went to sleep thinking of the man's thick voice and the surprised, icy tone of his voice, he still did not understand why he was still thinking about this man. Does he have anything to do with his deceased parents?

The two days went by in a flash, Yi Yuga reached the peak of Qi Refinement and had a much healthier face than before, although it still looked thin, he no longer had the skin so yellowed by anemia and his hair was more beautiful, and his beautiful green eyes sparkled more vividly.

Of course, Yi Yuga was even more grateful to his brother Yan, for this rebirth, after all, without the hidden techniques he could not regain his health and become strong, one can not forget the nutrition pills that nourished his weak body during the during the two days.

It was still a day before Song Yan and he went to Village 10 for the Celestial Sword test, but Song Yan decided that they needed to hunt down a demonic beast to get the marrow of one of these powerful beasts to perform his baptism. Yi Yuga.

Baptism refers to consuming the bone marrow or an important part of a demonic beast to purify the impurities in their bodies, since the demonic beasts were beings made by nature and soon their bodies resonate with the Tao of the sky and the earth.

Of course, the ideal would be a sacred beast, but it would be a sacrilege to kill a pure being who has always done good and protects other animals to become a sacrificial object for cultivators, not to mention that whoever consumes a sacred beast is hunted by the sacred beasts stronger, for example, if a cultivator consumes the marrow of a white tiger then a white tiger with silver wings will always be behind that cultivator to exterminate such scum.

Then Song Yan and Yi Yuga both at the peak of the realm of the Qi Refinement depart to hunt down a demonic beast of bronze degree. It should be noted that the demonic beasts are divided into degrees of White, Bronze, Black, Silver, Gold, Red Gold, Purple Gold, and Violet.

The white degree is demonic beasts that even humans can kill if they bring together a large group. The bronze rank equals the level of power between the realm of Qi Refinement and the Kingdom of Foundation. The Black rank equals the level of power of the Kingdom of the Foundation, varying in combat techniques, making them even stronger than the human cultivator of the same realm of cultivation. The Silver degree is equivalent to the Aurore Core kingdom, but the demonic beasts acquire a certain degree of intelligence, which makes them at least 2x stronger than a human cultivator in the same realm.

The other demonic beasts are still far from appearing in this novel, so the author will address it again in the future.

Song Yan and Yi Yuga stopped near a bell tower, there was a pack of brass-level wind wolves, they were not very strong, but together they posed a very great danger even to Kingdom Foundation cultivator at peak stage.

It should be remembered that every cultivation kingdom has 12 levels and that each cultivator can choose up to three types of element in his life, of course, this is generally because there are special lineages and sects with very special cultivation techniques such as sect of the Arcane Mage, who specialize in the elements and techniques of spiritual cultivation, but in general terms cultivators can only have three types of elements in their bodies.

The elements are defined by the breathing technique that a practicing martial cultivator, acquitting an elemental being in an elemental baptism, and in his first assimilation of the bone marrow or of some organ of a demonic beast of high degree when the martial cultivator is in the kingdom Refine Qi or Kingdom of the Foundation.

In the Aurore Core realm the absolution of a bone marrow or organ is useless, unless it is a demonic beast of the Golden Purple rank, but this type of demonic beast would have reached a stage where it can become a humanoid form, the that makes this kind of demonic beast terrifying!

Not to mention that the cultivation of the martial cultivator will be practically on the way to completion, in other words, this cultivator would have to destroy his base in order to absorb this bone marrow!

Great sects often perform baptism when a disciple becomes the Kingdom of the Foundation, thus showing some talent in martial cultivation or latent ability for a particular element, it is also at that time that these disciples have the ability to become members of the sect, that is, official students of the sects.

It should be remembered that sects do not distribute powerful breathing techniques, only basic techniques, only when a disciple climbs up to the Kingdom of the Foundation is that sects can provide some medium-grade breathing techniques. Of course, this is all to protect the sect of spies and their treasures from being stolen, so that by becoming the disciple within the sect one must take an oath with the lifeline at risk in order to receive more benefits from the sects .

That is why the sects can maintain their hegemony!

Song Yan explains to Yi Yuga briefly about the wolves of the winds and his intention to help this his friend to obtain a bone marrow from one of these wolves to strengthen the weak body of Yi Yuga.

Yi Yuga feels his eyes sting for being thrilled, he wanted to cry a little, but knew that his brother Yan would not want it, he might even be reprimanded for being too emotional. So he just kept his emotions and left that heat in his heart for some time, years later Yi Yuga was still going to smile silly at the thought of this day.

Song Yan plans a trap that looks simple, but anyone else would have a hard time performing such an undertaking because they could not muster all the world's professional skills in one place, not at the level of the Qi Refinement realm.

In the end, the pack of wind wolves got stuck in a great training trap, getting incomparably dizzy and helpless. The wolves of the wind had a gray coat and had red eyes, the fur had a soft green glow, which was the element of wind that naturally permeated the skin of these wolves in the wind.

In the midst of these brass packs of wolves, there were two wolves standing out from the pack, one had red hairs and a strong smell of blood, the other had a clean, pure white coat, the eyes of that last wolf were blue and the red-coated wolf's eyes were silver in color.

Besides the different coat the two wolves had a strong green glow in their powerful bodies, in addition there was a rune in the above the eyes of the wolves, the red wolf had a strange rune representing the word "Asura" and the wolf of white coat had a rune representing the word "King".

Clearly, the white-coated wolf was the king of the pack of wolves of the wind and is considered a high-grade demonic beast of silver rank!

Already the red wolf would be the beta wolf, or in human terms, the general wolf, belonging to the bronze degree of average level.

Song Yan decided that for the current Yi Yuga the general wolf would be enough if he tried to get his friend to assimilate the bone marrow of the wolf king could be that his friend exploded for not supporting the power in his small body.

Soon the beta wolf was struck by a silver beam that came from the top of the formation of the trap matrix, the wolf howled in agony and tried to flee, but the lightning was faster and unforgiving!

The wolf died a few minutes later, strangely the body was not charred, but still, the corpse was steaming.

Song Yan made a movement with his hands, making some mysterious symbols with his thin fingers, soon the body of the red-haired wolf was brought from the formation and appeared before the two boys. Yi Yuga's eyes flashed with astonishment and curiosity, he really felt that he should learn a little about the formations, these things seemed so much fun!

Song Yan approached the wolf's body, totally ignoring about the foolish thinking of his best friend Yi Yuga, then took out of the ring a silver dagger, which had a green stone embedded in the handle.

The young brother Yan pointed the dagger to the beta wolf's backbone, then a green light flickered from the dagger, soon a kind of green laser penetrated a certain place on the spine, a few seconds later, the green light brought a rune that looked carved in a strange silvery fluid.

Soon, Song Yan brought a box of white stone out and guided the laser with the rune and the silver fluid into that stone box, quickly sealing by throwing a black stone that has the shape of a star on top of that box of stone, thus sealing the "bone marrow" of the red-coated wolf.

"When we get back to camp, you can assimilate this bone marrow," Song Yan said as he watched the stunned Yi Yuga as he stored the box in his rusty ring. He seemed very amused by Yi Yuga's silly reaction.

"Brother Yan, what is this technique?" Yi Yuga asked with his bright green eyes, looking like a big beggar dog.

"This is a technique used by cultivator of the profession of Hunters and the Profession Collectors, these professionals are the ones who hunt demonic beasts, fueling the human market with their items. Collectors collect both herbs and demonic beasts that consume herbs as their natural food. This is a technique that makes it possible to get the best of all fighters without harming the product, "said Song Yan, giving a brief explanation of this technique.

Only he omitted that this technique is only used by high-level hunters, because to get a dagger like this silver dagger was very difficult!

After explaining this, Song Yan used the dagger a few more times and took out all that was good from the red-coated wolf, including the red coat, then he burned the body by throwing a red stone that soon incinerated the whole dismembered corpse. This stone is a low-grade craft product called Bronze Grade Incinerator Stone.

"And now, Brother Yan?" Yi Yuga asked with a rather lively look, it was still 2 am, they still had plenty of time before dawn, Song Yan had already stored the products taken from the beta wolf's corpse in his ring space.

"Let me see," said Song Yan, picking up a silver clipboard that had a gold disk and around the disk there are several precious stones of various colors. This was a very rare and strange item called, Needle of the Element.

This item serves to locate the demonic beasts or sacred beasts, their elements, their forces and quantities, being thus that Song Yan found that pack of wolves.

"The magical formation will take time to release the wolves, so we should have a margin of 2 hours before the wolves can break free and another 30 minutes before the wolves return to normal, so how do you feel about visiting the pack nest? "Song Yan asked with a very honest smile and an innocent look, as if he were suggesting they go buy candy at Aunt Chen's store!
