C20 Resurrection
A Year Later...
In a majestic forest where endless stacks of primitive trees that span through a million kilometers. There was a circular sacred area where a huge ancient tree stands. This ancient tree stands tall and mighty while going against the river of time. It was fuming with a vitality that courses throughout its veins, affecting the surroundings making the area even grander.
A few meters away from this ancient tree, a youth with a muscular body, towering over 6ft. tall, with his azure hair tied into a ponytail, was sitting on the ground with his eyes shut. This youth was Kyle.
Kyle was trying to cultivate peacefully. During this year... Kyle made a lot of improvements. Staying near the Revitalizing tree made his cultivation soar up. His Qi Cultivation already broke through the 7th stage 3 months ago, and he had already reached the peak of the 9th stage a month ago.
There were only 5 days left before the fruits ripen so he was getting prepared for the arrivals of the Xiantian Realm Beast. He was hoping to break through so he was diligently cultivating.
During the year of training with the monkey beast, Kyle has successfully learned a lot of martial arts. The monkey's martial arts was compromised of a lot of martial arts on earth, With a few, including moves that he was a stranger off.
Kyle's close combat ability now was very deadly since he wasn't just throwing some strong punches. He learned to control his power to its full potential.
The training with the monkey made them bonded with each other. They also talked a lot in these following months.
The monkey beast told him that its name was Guo Jin, it also told them that it was part of a fighting monkey tribe that was living in the outskirts of the empire.
The reason why Guo Jin stumbles upon this area was that it wanted to venture out of their town to become strong so it can help its tribe to improve their standing in the beast community.
Kyle's Haki was also improving but he still can't step to the 3rd stage of Kenbunshoku. But Kyle wasn't discouraged about this, since seeing the future was really a strange and miraculous move, so obviously achieving it would need a lot of training.
"Hey Guo Jin, there are only ten days left before the fruit will ripen, why hasn't your friend still arrived?" Kyle looked up the tree and told the monkey who was resting in its branch.
"I don't know too, he told me he'll arrive a month before the fruit ripens." Guo Jin replied while also wondering why is his friend late.
3 days later... Another monkey beast arrived, it also was a chimpanzee and it looks the same as Guo Jin, but this newcomer was a bit fatter than Guo Jin.
"Guo Shou, this is Kyle, Kyle, this is Guo Shou" Guo Jin introduced them with each other.
Kyle just nodded and went back to cultivating. Guo Shou was confused when it heard this, so the two monkeys went away to talk about the details that were happening. Then Guo Jin explained the situation to its friend.
Sooner later... The 3 became acquainted with each other and they started planning for the upcoming enemies.

....
Another day later...
While Kyle was diligently cultivating at the tree's branch, Unfortunately, the beasts suddenly arrived. Standing before the entrance of this area... A large beast with the looks of an Ox and a Bull could be seen. The Xiantian beasts stared at Guo Jin and Guo Shou.
When they saw Kyle at the branch of the tree, they first wondered why is there a human doing up there, but when they felt Kyle's Houtian Cultivation, they ignored him.
"Hey, monkey are my fruits ripened yet?" The Ox said with a mocking tone.
When the two newcomers saw Guo Shou, they weren't surprised or worried about it. So Kyle thought they might have something up there sleeves since they were so confident with themselves.
"Scram!! Or do you want me to beat you up again? " Guo Jin then retorted with a smug.
"Enough with this nonsense! why don't we just battle this out?" The Ox shouted, clearly still pissed at Guo Jin for reminding him for his defeat.
"Heh" Guo Jin just harrumphed and he charged towards the Ox and punched it. Seeing his friend attacking, Guo Shou then followed through and attacked the other beast.
They battled with each other while slowly moving away from the tree. Both groups didn't want to damage the fruits, so clearly they wanted to battle away from the tree.
Kyle could only hear loud noises of destruction coming from far away, another set of trees are getting destroyed making the area around the tree larger again. Kyle didn't go directly to help them since they already planned this a day ago.
He told them that since he was a human with only houtian energy, the enemies will naturally underestimate him, so he would find an opportunity while they battle and launch a sneak attack.
When the two monkey beasts heard this, they both directly went against this idea, saying it was disgraceful. But Kyle ignored them and just told them that he was the one doing the sneak attack, so why would they felt shame about it.
Since they can't convince him, they could only nod and went with the plan.
A series of blows then had occurred and Kyle started sneaking away from the tree, he wasn't worried about the fruits getting stolen since it still needed a few more days before it ripens, so stealing it right now will only destroy it.
Kyle wasn't good at things like sneaking or scouting, but since the beasts were busy focusing on their battles. He successfully sneaked at the area where the four beasts are battling.
They continued to trade each other blows, Kyle saw that the two monkeys were having the advantage, especially with their perfect combination.
Kyle new that the enemies will soon start to weaken and he will have a perfect opportunity to strike, so he just waited patiently.
After an hour of an arduous battle, the Ox and Bull were starting to show their weakness. So he knew his opportunity will soon come so he prepared himself.
Jin charged at the Ox with its flaming arms, while Shou did the same. When the Ox saw Jin charging at him he did another block. He successfully defended Jin's strike, but suddenly the Ox felt a presence behind him. The Ox then suddenly turned its head around and saw the human with his clenched black glowing fist heading towards him.

This human was obviously Kyle... when he saw an opening he didn't hesitate and charge towards the Ox while using his Atomic Fist. But before his fist could reach the Ox's head, he then felt a strike aiming at the back of his head. He felt that if he continued with his attack, the strike aiming at his head will successfully hit him, so he stopped his attack and swayed his head to the left.
A Millisecond later, his eye caught a glimpse of a claw passing just an inch away from his right eye. he then thrust his right palm and pushed the beast on his right side and he disengaged and went back to Guo Jin and Shou's sides.
Kyle was very pissed! This was a perfect chance to finish off and reduce the strength their enemy, he already planned a lot of scenarios to engaged the beasts but he didn't expect the beasts to be so cunning and clever that they actually counter-snipped him (like those in the movies where a sniper snipes another sniper, but in this case sneak attack) He then thought 'fck!!! How could I be this stupid, of course, they have someone doing a sneak attack too.'
Kyle hated his self for making a stupid mistake. To be honest... Kyle only made these mistakes, because the two Xiantian Beasts he met was both self-righteous and was a prideful kind of beasts who hated sneak attacks, so he got unconsciously blinded for a bit, and it didn't occur to him for his enemies to do a sneak attack. He already knew that not all of the beasts are the same kind of the Guo monkeys, but due to arrogance and the eagerness to battle a new Xiantian Beast, so he made a huge miscalculation. Being counter-snipped means the enemy had been observing him since a while ago, he hated this feeling and felt that he was played by his enemies.
He then looks forward and saw two more Xiantian beasts together with the Ox and Bull. The one that tried to kill him had a tiger-like body. Its body had very attractive looking stripes on it. Its claws were now retracted, so it now looked more majestic. And the other Xiantian beast was also a tiger type beast but it's presence and looks were a lot inferior compared to the former.
Truthfully.. the beasts were only planning to ambush the two monkeys, but when it saw Kyle sneaking around the area, they wondered what a Houtian human cultivator is doing here. So they observed him.
When Kyle attacked the Ox from behind, the Tigers were surprised at the human's speed, his speed was already comparable to some Xiantian Beast, so the Majestic Tiger felt that Kyle wasn't simple and made him a threat to eliminate. While Kyle was attacking, he made an opening at his self, so the Majestic Tiger didn't hesitate and stricken his claws towards Kyles' head.
...
Kyle then looked at his comrades, they didn't talk with their mouths, but with eye to eye coordination, they already knew what each other meant. They knew they were in a tight pinch. But still, they weren't completely hopeless so they didn't lose their bearings.
"Since the cat is out of the bag, there's no use in ambushing" the Majestic Tiger then started to walk up and talk like he's the new leader in the group.
They were a few tens of meters away from each other, but since their hearing was quite good, they could still hear each other.
"Monkey , I want to give you a proposal that could benefit both of us." The tiger continued to talk.
"What proposal?" Guo Jin replied.
"There's no use on continuing this fight, I will compromise and let's all receive one revitalizing pear," the Tiger told Jin.
Truthfully, they planned to the ambush because wanted to directly eliminate the monkeys in a swift manner. True... there are four of them against two beasts and a human, but even if it's a 2v4, once a Xiantian Beasts uses its Ressurection it could cause a lot of problems, and they weren't willing to risk that.
So when their ambush failed and got revealed, the Majestic Tiger wanted to compromise to only take one pear each. At least in this way, they could still have a Revitalizing pear, while not losing their vitality.
"Heh! But there's a problem, there are 7 of us here and there are only 6 pears.' Jin retorts.
" of course, we will kill the human, then problem solved." The tiger said nonchalantly as if Kyle wasn't even on his sights.
When Kyle heard the tiger talking about comprising a while ago, he already knew he fcked up big time. He knew that he was the only human here, so the chance of him being outcasted was high, so he made some escape plans in his mind. He just felt a little sad that he couldn't have the fruit since as long as this beasts didn't transform in their resurrection mode, he was confident to escape here alive. But what he heard next surprised him a bit.
"No! I already gave my word to give him a share, " Jin denied the tiger.
"Then break it, is your word more important than your life? " the tiger said with a threatening voice.
When Jin heard this, he got very pissed, the tiger had hit its reverse scale.
'YOU DARE!? You dare ask me to break my word? Did you really think I'll sully our ancestor's name for this meager life of mine??!!! Haaaah!!!! " Jin yelled in anger.
Jin knew they were in quite a pinch. 3v4 was really a big matter so it wanted to go all out from the start. Kyle already thought him a lesson a year ago to not underestimate your enemy while transforming. So since the enemy group was still far away, and since he was kinda pissed, he didn't hesitate and said
"Resurrection!"
when the Xiantian Beasts heard this, their eye went wide and no one hesitated and said
"Resurrection!"
"Resurrection!"
"Resurrection!"
"Resurrection!"
"Resurrection!"
When Kyle heard them all, he could only think of one thing
' Shit just hit the Fan!'
