Chapter 1215: Levels Jumping Up in Leaps and Bounds

“You’re toying with me!”

Those who can become a member of an elite mercenary in a first class international mercenary group were not idiots. Even though Flame Wolf had been excited because of Tiger Soul’s strength and was ecstatic, as time passed, he noticed that his strength would not allow him to turn the tides and help him control the situation. In the end, he slowly removed himself from his ecstasy, and he noticed the strangeness in Happy’s behavior.

This was especially so when he noticed that Happy’s sword technique was becoming clearer and the sounds the attacks made also became louder. Happy’s attacks became more agile and more aggressive. In fact, even the gusts generated by Sun Finger became louder and more shocking. In the end, Flame Wolf had to acknowledge a truth he had not been willing to accept all this while.

“Bastard!”

Flame Wolf’s expression was dark. He delivered two saber glares and retreated dozens of feet away while he stared into Happy’s eyes. “You’re… using me to polish your martial arts!”

This time, Happy did not chase after him relentlessly, just like how he did all this while.

Ting!

He delivered a spark with his sword, and he tapped Heaven Crystal gently with his finger.

Heaven Crystal let out a long whine, and its voice lingered in the air. It was clear.

Whine…

The air shuddered a little.

Flame Wolf quickly noticed that a powerful sword will rose from Happy’s body. It fused into Heaven Crystal’s sword will, and the light in the sword became even more dazzling.

When he saw this, there was no way Flame Wolf would not notice that Happy had been deliberately suppressed the level of his sword technique just now, and it had increased by a large margin compared to the beginning. Flame Wolf’s expression turned even darker, and he looked like someone just killed his dog.

‘This is the difference between the tenth realm and the eighth realm…’

Happy was slightly delighted. He had a faint smile appear on his lips.

At that moment, Happy did not look at Flame Wolf.

He sensed his strength, and he calmly pointed at Flame Wolf before he spoke loudly, “Speaking of which, I have to thank you… Flame Wolf, if it weren’t for you, my Hourly Sword Technique could not have possibly been able to move from the eighth realm to the tenth realm so quickly. The difficulty in training a unique martial art at Inaction Realm is too high. Even if I fight against those in the dao of heaven, I will need a few days before I can make it reach the tenth realm.”

When he said this, he stopped talking for a moment.

Flame Wolf’s eyes had already turned bloodshot. He gritted his teeth, and his eyes were full of hate.

“This abnormal phenomenon has allowed my epiphanies to increase as the sword wills clash against each other. This is what is truly good about this fight.” He ignored Flame Wolf’s hate-filled and resentful gazes. Happy said those words softly, causing Flame Wolf to be dumbfounded.

Right after he finished speaking, Flame Wolf’s pupils shrank.

Based on Happy’s words it was not difficult for him to realize that his training speed was much faster when he fought against Tiger Soul.

When he noticed this, Flame Wolf’s expression turned incredibly strange. Suddenly, he felt great regret rise in his heart.

Why didn’t he try to fight using his own martial arts just now?!

The strange phenomenon was still around, perhaps he would be able to get something unexpected when he fought against Heaven Crystal as well. But he had been solely using the ultimate techniques given to him by Tiger Soul just now. Even though he had nearly suppressed Happy a few times, since he did not use his own martial arts, his skills did not level up in the slightest.

But now, when he saw Happy’s satisfied and pleased expression, along with the mocking looks he gave Flame Wolf occasionally, Flame Wolf not only felt gloomy because he had been deceived, he also felt as if he just swallowed a fly, and he felt disgusted.

He knew that Happy would definitely not let him have the chance to try.

But Flame Wolf did not know that Happy did not just have his Hourly Sword Technique reach the tenth realm—which meant that it was very close to perfection—his Sun Finger had also reached the same realm as his Hourly Sword Technique.

His Inaction Realm unique martial art and his Inaction Realm ultimate technique were both close to perfection. They had leveled up by several realms, and the increase in their strength was very clear. If he just attacked without using any support skills, his attack would deliver more than ten thousand damage. With his qi realm, his attacks would deal nearly twenty thousand damage. It meant that he basically had another Heaven Crystal in his hands.

What was even more terrifying was that his Full Winds in Long Skies had also leveled as well. It raised from its original seventh realm to the eighth realm. Right now, it could release seven duplicates of the original attack.

He had just leveled up by one realm, but the power difference was like heaven and earth.

When the six duplicates were fused into one, it was already slightly stronger than the full-powered attack from one person in the dao of heaven. Right now, the damage from his sword technique had increased to nearly twenty thousand points, and if it dealt seven times its original damage once he activated Full Winds in Long Skies, that would mean that he would have his damage increase to more than one hundred thousand. Even when the alliance master had Tiger Soul, he never managed to deal that much damage.

“As thanks, I could choose not to kill you, but unfortunately, Heaven Crystal is telling me that you only die so that it can cleanse Tiger Soul’s qi and blood. That’s why I’ll offer to spare you the next time you fall into Lovely Land’s hands.”

He flicked the sword lightly, and a clear as well as pleasant sword while spread out languidly.

His words were like a loud smack across Flame Wolf’s face. His eyes shone with a resentful glare.

“Hmph! It won’t be that easy to snatch Tiger Soul from my hands. Even if I give up on my quest this time, I won’t let you have your way!”

As he spoke, Flame Wolf did not advance. He retreated and reached his maximum speed in an instant. He charged into the terrifying tornado.

When he rushed into the tornado, a blood red light suddenly appeared outside Flame Wolf. It blocked off the raging sand that came charging at him from all directions, and he started trying to break out of the tornado without slowing down in the slightest.

He wanted to flee regardless of the cost.

When Happy saw this, he frowned. But he did not try to stop or chase after him. He just stood where he was indifferently and watched Flame Wolf rush into the tornado.

Even though he regarded Flame Wolf’s actions in disdain, Happy believed that he still had a clear understanding of the situation.

The quest this time was a fight between Tiger Soul and Heaven Crystal.

The weather had changed, and a tornado descended in the desert.

The fight had caused such a huge ruckus. If Flame Wolf managed to run away so quietly and destroy the fight between the two ancient weapons, the major ruckus the system had caused for this fight would end up as a hilarious joke.

Without batting an eyelid, Happy stood where he was, and he slowly directed his sword at the ground.

“No!”

Suddenly, Flame Wolf’s fearful cry shot out faintly from the tornado.

Happy did not even bat an eyelid.

Boom!

As Flame Wolf’s scream faded away, a familiar, brutal presence rose into the air, and a figure charged back even faster from the tornado compared to the speed Flame Wolf used to fly out.

Whoosh!

With an indomitable ruthlessness and violence, a tiger’s roar rang through the world. A sharp and bloody saber glare instantly manifested in the air 328 feet away from Happy, and it was sent down at the speed of lightning.

He looked up.

Flame Wolf’s expression was full of bloodlust and savagery. He rushed back with a monstrous look, and he was once again enveloped in a blood red light. He was just like a person drenched in blood; he returned to the state where he no longer possessed any form of rationality.

His qi had deviated once more.

Flame Wolf lost control of his body. Right now, he was controlled once more by Tiger Soul’s evil spirit.

When he saw the change in Flame Wolf, Happy did not dare to be careless. He swung Heaven Crystal upward.

Hiss!

A black gash suddenly appeared in front of Happy.

It was a slash that brought terror!

In the dark sky, stars sparkled.

Once he pushed his Hourly Sword Technique to the tenth realm, when he delivered the profound skill in the technique, his attack would create a space filled with stars. Right now, a mighty and profound presence charged at the blood-red tiger-shaped saber glare.

The black and red slashes crashed violently in the air.

Boom!

The blood-red tiger-shaped saber glare still managed to gain the advantage.

However, the blood-red tiger-shaped saber glare was incredibly weakened by the black slash, and when the remaining power swept past Happy’s body, it only managed to make his sleeves flutter. Happy did not move in the slightest. His true origin aura did not even shrink visibly.

He stood still with the air in his face, and a hint of a smile appeared on Happy’s face.

This was what he called power that was comparable to those in the dao of heaven!

He could do this if he activated Full Winds in Long Skies, but this ultimate technique only bound his attacks together. It could be considered to be a quantitative change, and the real damage in the attack would not increase just because the attacks were stacked together. But Heaven Crystal’s ten thousand damage and Hourly Sword Technique ten thousand damage could be stacked. With its attribute in breaking defenses, even a casual swing of the sword would produce an attack that would not lose to Full Winds in Long Skies.

‘If I activate Full Winds in Long Skies, even those who are in the dao of heaven might not dare to receive my attack!’

While he thought about this, Happy suddenly quirked his eyebrows and stared at the ground in surprise.

Once Tiger Soul delivered the attack, it went into a ceasefire and stopped attacking. This was unlike Tiger Soul’s attack style. Unless…

He looked up.

Tiger Soul’s ruthless and brutal presence had instantly returned to Flame Wolf’s body. His blood-red eyes had regained clarity once more. As of current, he was staring at his hands with a dumbfounded look in his eyes. On his face was an expression full of anguish and despair.

“Urk.”

Flame Wolf was brought back by Tiger Soul, and he was yanked out to fight again.

Happy instantly had his question answered.

With Tiger Soul’s pride, he would definitely not allow his temporary owner to retreat from Heaven Crystal.

“Looks like you can’t escape from this destiny.”

“This seems to be the case.”

Flame Wolf could only smile bitterly in the face of Happy’s teasing. He gritted his teeth and accepted this fate.

Right now, there was nothing else more embarrassing than this.

He had turned tail and ran from his enemy, but the disobedient Tiger Soul and tossed him back. Then, he had to face a powerful enemy who had never taken a step to chase after him behind him. Now, his enemy was mocking him, and even if his willpower was rather stronger, Flame Wolf still felt his cheeks burn hotly.

“That idiot.”

A certain person in a dark room in a certain place could not help but curse him.

After he was brought back by Tiger Soul, Tiger Soul tried multiple times to throw Tiger Soul away, but the saber seemed to have rooted itself to Flame Wolf’s hands, and he could not get rid of it.

Once he was certain that he could not get rid of his status as Tiger Soul’s master, he gave up completely and redirected his gaze to Happy.

“Even if I die, I will not let you get Tiger Soul so easily!”

Happy ignored him. He just focused on getting used to his current strength.

Once Heaven Crystal’s sword will was activated, its strength became infinitesimally close to those in the dao of heaven!

If he used Full Winds in Long Skies, its power should not lose to the alliance master when he had Tiger Soul in hand. Even if he faced the alliance master, he would be able to fight against him.

But right now, what Happy was most concerned about was the power in Wild Fights in All Directions, which was the trickiest of all his attacks.

In the past, its damage was rather low, this attack could only be used to send enemies back, and it could only be used to counter the Wild Wolves’ Forbidden Daiya Technique.

Right now, if he could release this attack while it possessed the power of those in the dao of heaven, he could attack his enemies in a wide area and force them back. If he ran into those who were weak during that time, he could kill them with one sword slash, and the victor would be decided.

In other words, Dragon Swings Its Tail was no longer the key for him to defeat his opponent by catching them off guard. Right now, Wild Fights in All Directions could be used as his strongest trump card to suppress his enemies.

But Happy did not want to immediately reveal this move in front of others, especially those Wild Wolves.

When he thought of this, Happy’s gaze focused.

It was time for him to end this fight and end Flame Wolf’s ludicrous performance.
