Chapter 27: The Seven Stars Warrior

  The vast grassland, under the scorching sun, emits a strong scent of fresh grass.

  "Whoosh whoosh whoosh."

  A faint rustling sound came, and the grass in a certain place swayed, as if blown by the wind. However, on this scorching summer day, there was no sign of any wind, not even a gentle breeze.

  "Good grief, this prairie is so vast, I'm exhausted to death!" The sudden and loud curse echoed across the prairie, startling some birds that were hiding in the shadows.

  The grass thicket stirred, and a small face emerged from it, surprisingly Jiang Hao, who had entered the prairie several months ago.

  At this time, Jiang Hao's clothes were all tattered and torn, his body was covered in bruises, his hair was disheveled and overgrown with weeds, looking like a complete savage, only his eyes shone brightly and clearly.

  "This is killing me, I'm itching to death." Earlier, Jiang Huan had accidentally entered a thorny thicket while practicing the Wind Chasing Step. Although he managed to pass through with the help of the mysterious Wind Chasing Step, the dense thorns still scratched his clothes into strips and left many cuts on his body. The painful and itchy Jiang Huan cursed and jumped around, gnashing his teeth.

  "Alright, be quiet, or you'll attract a pack of wolves again." A gentle breeze blew by, and the figure of Arcane appeared before Jiang Hao.

  Jiang Hao's mouth twitched as he recalled the scene of being chased by a group of first-level magic wolves two days ago. Although he had successfully killed several magic wolves with his footwork and sharp dagger, he was no match for the large number of magic wolves that kept coming after him. It seemed like Tianyi didn't care at all, so Jiang Hao could only flee in defeat.

  "You knew? Then why didn't you make a move." Jiang Hao rolled his eyes and gazed at Tianyi with a hint of resentment.

  "Honestly, I thought you should be able to handle it yourself. Besides, if I always help you, it won't do you any good. From now on, unless your life is in danger, I won't intervene unnecessarily." Tian Yi glanced at Jiang Huan's bitter face and said seriously.

  "I knew you'd say that, forget it, with my great fortune and longevity, I won't die so easily." Jiang Hao laughed.

  "You little guy, you're about to enter the Monster Mountain Range. This time is different from last time. To survive, first and foremost, you need to learn how to protect yourself." Zi Tian raised his head and looked at the black mountain range not far in front of him, saying this with a serious tone.

  "I know this, if you can't beat it, just run!"

  "Damn it, I regret teaching you the Pursuit of Light step. It seems like it's only useful for escaping? What you need to do now is to completely disperse your spiritual power, remember, at all times." said Tianyi with a stern face.

  Jiang Hao helplessly shook his head, the soul power at his brow dispersed entirely, spreading out in a circular shape in all directions, taking in everything within hundreds of miles.

  Seeing Jiang Hao release his soul power, Shi Tian nodded in satisfaction, thinking that when he was his age, he could only explore areas within a radius of dozens of miles.

  "Master, is it so?" Jiang Hao raised his eyes and asked Yu Tian.

  "Well, that's it. Now let's continue on our way. We must reach the edge of the Beast Mountain Range before sunset." Zi Tian waved his sleeve and transformed into a beam of light, entering the pendant around his neck.

  Jiang Hao tore off all the tattered clothes on his body, sprinkled some self-made golden wound medicine on his wounds, and then took out a set of clean clothes from his necklace to change into. Only then did he lift his foot to continue on his way. Although there was still nearly a hundred miles to the Magic Beast Mountain Range, Jiang Hao's current speed was no longer the same as before, so it was still possible for him to arrive at the Magic Beast Mountain Range before sunset.

  The desolate and helpless afternoon grassland emits a bitter taste, mixed with some rotten breath. Although it's not very pleasant, it's filled with natural freshness, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, giving people a transcendent enjoyment, as if leaving this mundane world, letting the soul suddenly soar up.

  Jiang Hao's figure appeared and disappeared in the grass, and upon closer inspection, those dense grasses couldn't even touch his clothes, it was extremely strange.

  "Ah."

  Jiang Hao slowly descended, taking a deep breath. Several hours of rushing with all his might, and constantly dispersing his soul power, was simply a form of torture. Jiang Hao's entire body had almost exhausted its battle energy, and his soul power was also nearly depleted. His mind kept sending dizzy feelings, making him feel drowsy. Fortunately, after several hours of rushing, Jiang Hao finally stepped out of the vast grassland and arrived at the outer edge of this demon beast mountain range.

  "Master, I'm back. I'm exhausted, let me take a nap first." Jiang Huan said, then fell to the ground and covered his head to sleep.

  "No sleeping allowed, now is the best time for cultivation." Ji Tian's voice suddenly entered Jiang Hao's ears.

  With a stifled growl, Jiang Heng propped up his small wooden board, clasped his hands together in a seal, and entered a state of cultivation.

  The silhouette of the tyrant slowly emerged in front of Jiang Hao, looking at Jiang Hao's small face covered with dust, couldn't help but smile, this kid's progress over the past few months was truly unimaginable, from the footwork just now, his Pursuing Light Step's first layer, Wind Chasing Step, had already reached a state of great accomplishment.

  In fact, Jiang Heng didn't know that there were some things that Heaven's Chosen had not told him. The martial skill he came up with couldn't be as simple as just a footwork, Pursuing Light Step wasn't something anyone could cultivate, even if you got the technique, if you didn't meet the requirements, you wouldn't be able to learn it at all, let alone talk about cultivating it to perfection.

  At that time, in order to obtain this technique, the Emperor of Heaven had fought a fierce battle with many powerful beings. It is said that apart from the four steps of Wind Chasing Step, Thunder Chasing Step, Light Chasing Step and Instantaneous Step, there was another step called Heaven Chasing Step. The Emperor of Heaven only heard its name back then, which was truly a divine technique. Of course, even the first four layers of steps were already incredible, and the fourth layer of Instantaneous Step had almost reached the level of a divine technique. It is said that once this step is cultivated, one can travel thousands of miles in an instant, kill people silently, and take their lives without making a sound. Unfortunately, not even the Emperor of Heaven himself was able to successfully cultivate this fourth step.

  "A drink." A loud and abrupt voice suddenly rang out, Di Tian hastily withdrew his thoughts and looked towards Jiang Heng on the side.

  Only to see Jiang Hao covered in sweat, his face red and pale, the battle energy around him constantly transmitting unstable fluctuations, as if about to explode. This kid was originally in a state of promotion, but looking at this situation, Jiang Hao seemed to be intentionally suppressing it, in order to absorb more battle energy, which is why this situation occurred.

  "This kid, really doesn't let me worry, too arrogant. Let's take a look first." Zi Tian sighed and sat in the air with a satisfied smile on his face. Although Jiang Huan was being arrogant, this precisely showed that he had the qualifications to become a strong person. Since ancient times, no great ability has been bound by conventional rules.

  Jiang Hao's body was in a bad state at this time, the war energy in his dantian was overflowing abnormally, but Jiang Hao still suppressed it strongly. The war energy continued to enter his body from outside, and his entire dantian was extremely swollen and painful. At a certain critical point, Jiang Hao suddenly let out a loud roar and began his seventh condensation. Condensing the war energy became increasingly difficult as time went on, and Jiang Hao forced the war energy to circulate through the six orifices. Each cycle reduced the impurities in the war energy by a fraction, and the war energy itself became more refined by a fraction. However, the amount of war energy was simply too great, far exceeding what a six-star warrior could withstand. Jiang Hao was only able to barely endure it thanks to his exceptionally robust body.

  The true energy flowed through his meridians like the tide, and the true energy in his dantian didn't weaken at all. Jiang Hao's meridians were already swollen to the extreme, "Still not enough?" Jiang Hao sighed bitterly in his heart.

  "Hmph." Suddenly, the pent-up energy in his dantian found an outlet and surged wildly towards Jiang Huan's chest.

  Jiang Hao was taken aback, staring blankly at the black pearl on his chest. The black pearl was now jumping with joy, frantically absorbing the battle energy within Jiang Hao's body, emitting a faint fluorescent glow.

  Taking advantage of this brief pause, Jiang Huan hastily gathered his thoughts and accelerated his condensation speed.

  This cultivation lasted for two whole days, and the vortex surrounding Jiang Hao's body slowly dissipated. Jiang Hao slowly opened his eyes, spat out a mouthful of foul air, and suddenly felt much lighter. If it weren't for that black bead's help during this promotion, he would probably have ended in failure. Now that he thinks about it, he still feels a bit frightened.

  "Wake up." Yi Tian looked at Jiang Huan with a smile and said.

  "Thanks a lot, Master." Jiang Hao hastily stood up.

  "Alright, Seven Star Warrior, not bad. It seems that this period of hard work has brought you many benefits, but since you've forcefully advanced, you must solidify your cultivation and absolutely cannot be reckless. The time is late, enter the mountain range." said Shi Tian.

  "En." Jiang Hao responded with a sound, his eyes fixed intently on the mountain range in front of him, before turning around and rushing into the dense thicket.
