If it was two months ago, I definitely wouldn't have been so calm and collected when facing such a charging water buffalo. Battles…could indeed make a person mature very quickly. Facing such a dangerous water buffalo, my heart was completely calm, because…I had confidence in myself. This was the confidence of a beginner warrior that had been nurtured over thousands of times!
I took a deep breath. As the water buffalo closed in on me, I raised the Hundred-battle Saber in my hand bit by bit. The result of that head-on clash four to five months ago was still fresh in my mind. That time…I was sent flying over ten meters away. I lost all feeling in my arms, and the web between my thumb and forefinger split open. It could be said that…I lost miserably.
But today is different. After four to five months of training, I am no longer that weak boy. Now…I have the strength to fight it head-on!
Thinking of the excitement, I suddenly opened my mouth and roared. At the same time I exhaled the air in my chest, the internal strength vortex in my dantian suddenly accelerated and spun. Two relatively small internal strength vortexes were thrown out and quickly drilled through a series of meridians to reach my hands. Then, they quickly poured into the Hundred-battle Saber. Immediately…I felt that my arms were filled with explosive power.
Roar!
I couldn't help but roar out once more. With a sudden leap, my body actually crossed a distance of about two meters in the air. I held the Hundred-battle Saber with both hands and gritted my teeth as I hacked down towards the water buffalo's horns.
When…
With a loud bang, the Hundred-battle Saber finally struck the water buffalo's horns with all of its strength. I spread my legs to the sides, forming a straight line. The Hundred-battle Saber in my hand ruthlessly struck the water buffalo's horns. At the instant we clashed, we actually seemed to freeze there.
Boom...
With the water buffalo and I at the center, a wave of energy whistled out in all directions. For a moment, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and the violent energy only began to weaken after being pushed out for over ten meters. It only gradually disappeared when it reached twenty meters.
After a slight pause, I had already exhausted all of my power. There was no longer any power in my body that could be added to the water buffalo.
It seemed to be very long, as long as a century, but it also seemed very short, as if it wasn't even a tenth of a second. A huge force was emitted from the buffalo's horns. With a loud bang, I was pushed out along with my saber!
After making a 360-degree turn in the air, I barely managed to adjust my body's center of gravity so that my feet landed on the ground. However…as soon as my feet landed on the ground, a huge force came from my body, causing me to retreat again and again. Teng, teng, teng…I took five consecutive steps before I barely managed to stand still.
Clang!
I barely managed to use my saber to support myself as I stared at the water buffalo ten meters away in astonishment. Just when I thought that I would be able to defeat it easily, I never expected…that this would actually be the result.
Actually…I have to admit that after four to five months of training, it's already a miracle that I've improved to where I am today. However…after all, I haven't reached the level I imagined, so I'm still a little disappointed and confused.
Four to five months ago, I was knocked back by a corner of the water buffalo for over ten meters, without the slightest chance of resisting. But now…not only did I hold my ground against the water buffalo for a mere fraction of a second, but…the distance I could retreat had also been greatly reduced, only retreating less than seven meters.
Most importantly, although my arms were in intense pain, I didn't lose my ability to fight. The web between my thumb and forefinger didn't crack again, but it was burning.
The water buffalo paused for a moment. Clearly, my strength wasn't enough to make him wary. Not only that, but it also made him even angrier.
After panting for a few breaths, the water buffalo's eyes turned red once again. It lowered its head and charged towards me, aiming its huge horns at me.
I quickly circulated the true qi in my dantian and quickly nourished my aching arms. At the same time…I flashed and allowed Gu to block the water buffalo's attack while continuing to recover her strength.
Although the water buffalo had great strength, it had lost its agility. In comparison, it was not as dangerous as the wind antelope. After all…the wind antelope was small, and although its impact force could not compare to the water buffalo, once it charged, its strength could not be underestimated.
Most importantly, the Wind Antelope was good at long-range attacks. I didn't dare to distance myself from him. Those sharp wind blades could even cut through rocks. I didn't dare to let him have the chance to wreak havoc on me. If he cut off an arm or a leg, I wouldn't even have a place to cry.
By the time the water buffalo charged at me for the third time, my arms had already recovered. Although the intense pain didn't lessen, it actually seemed to intensify. However, to my surprise, my arms once again began to surge with endless power.
Clang!
Once again, I had a direct confrontation with the water buffalo. Instantly…my entire arm became completely numb. Even if I had true qi to help me, it would be useless. The Nine Yang Divine Art, which had reached the first level, could only increase my recovery rate and strength by several times. It was not invincible!
An ordinary person would find it hard to imagine the impact of a huge water buffalo charging forward. It was definitely not something that an ordinary person could use a large saber to slash back. Even if I had learned the Nine Yang Divine Skill, it would still be the same. Unless I reached a higher level, otherwise…my strength would still be suppressed.
Just like that, I fought head-on, recovered, and fought head-on. I fought against the water buffalo again and again according to this process. Under its huge impact force, I only fought for less than ten rounds before my arm could no longer recover, even with the help of the Nine Yang Divine Skill.
With a gentle flash, I slashed the back of the water buffalo with my saber. I then began to use my own methods to torture that pitiful water buffalo. In just two or three strikes, the water buffalo's body tilted and fell to the ground. It opened its blood-red eyes that were filled with unwillingness and stared at me, but its body no longer listened to its orders. It could no longer stand up.
I panted heavily for air, which was extremely precious to me now. I used my knife to support myself on the ground, trying my best to recover my exhausted physical strength.
Regardless of whether it was me or the powerful water buffalo, after fighting for so long, we had both exhausted too much of our stamina. Humans weren't gods, so it was impossible for them not to be tired. This was especially so after such a high-intensity battle. It had quickly drained every bit of energy in my body.
I didn't kill the water buffalo. I only used my back to strike the area where its muscles gathered, causing them to spasm. That was why it fell to the ground and lost control of its body. However, as long as it rested for a while, it would recover.
I climbed back up the tree with difficulty. I knew…if I let my body slowly recover, I wouldn't be able to recover by this time tomorrow. But if I used my cloud true qi to recover, I would be able to recover in just one cycle.
I sat down cross-legged on the top of the tree and closed my eyes. I started to circulate the Nine Yang Divine Technique. Under my control, the vortex quickly split into two and flowed into the meridians of my two arms.
Wherever the cyclone passed, the damaged meridians that had caused the blood to stagnate quickly became unblocked. Not only that, but the true qi also continuously washed the newly repaired meridians, making them stronger, more elastic, and more resilient than before. This was also the most fundamental reason why I had improved so quickly in the past two months.
The Nine Suns True Qi had the ability to heal itself, especially for internal injuries. It had a powerful automatic recovery function. Once it was damaged, the True Qi would immediately react and divide some True Qi to nourish the injured part, healing the damaged meridians bit by bit.
However…the Nine Suns True Qi was not omnipotent. Once it was seriously damaged, the Nine Suns True Qi would lose its self-healing ability. Although a portion of the True Qi was still used to treat the wounds, the amount of energy that was used was too little. If they wanted to rely on them to treat serious injuries, it would take too long. Moreover, there were some injuries that they could not repair.
However…when I sit down cross-legged and use the main cyclone in my dantian to treat my injuries, its healing ability can be said to increase by several times or even tenfold. In a very short period of time, I can heal very serious injuries.
So far, I have not suffered any injuries that the Nine Yang Scripture cannot cure, but I think…no matter what, there is a limit to it. If my injuries are too serious, even the Nine Yang Divine Art cannot cure it. So far, the injuries I have suffered are only some contusions and sprains. Of course, it is easy to treat them.
