Mountain Splitter Cannon, Head-on Cannon, Half-step Blast, Ocean Bottom Tremor, Eight-Armed Divine Fist!
Tang Wen erupted with power again and again, the air vibrating with the sound of his strikes.
[Physique: 8.95 → 8.99]
An increase of 0.04!
The heat within his body hadn't dissipated; instead, it grew more intense.
His skin turned a faint red, and his body temperature continued to rise.
"Awoo!"
The Sand Wolf King urged Tang Wen to keep training.
Tang Wen didn't dare slack off.
He understood that it was likely the spinal marrow of the Transcendent Beast at work.
It could be considered a rare treasure of nature.
The harder he trained and the better he guided his Contemplation Method, the more his physique would improve.
If he didn't move or train, the medicinal effects would clash within his body, causing harm instead of benefit!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
[Physique: 8.99 → 9.04]
Another increase of 0.05.
The heat within Tang Wen's body grew even more intense.
He was no longer satisfied with just punching the air.
But the nearby ground had been ravaged by several battles.
There wasn't even a large rock in sight.
What could he use as a target?
He had no choice but to patiently continue visualizing and striking the air!
Half an hour passed, and his body felt as if it were on fire.
The heat flushed his face, and steam rose from the top of his head!
The potency of the Transcendent Snapping Turtle's spinal marrow was too strong!
He was like an ordinary person who had consumed a thousand-year-old ginseng. If he didn't quickly absorb or release the medicinal energy, it would burn his internal organs.
"Hey!"
Tang Wen ran into the distance, lifted a massive boulder weighing tens of thousands of pounds, and with the power of his Contemplation Method, hurled it with all his might.
He didn't care whether the throw succeeded or failed.
He chased after it frantically, lifted it again, and threw it once more!
[Physique: 9.04 → 9.11]
[Physique: 9.11 → 9.17]
[Physique: 9.17 → 9.30]
[...]
His relatively lagging physique attribute soared like a rocket.
Tang Wen sprinted wildly across the wilderness!
In an instant, he became a distant black dot.
Flap! Flap! Flap!
The Blood Raven, now a Mid-level Exotic Beast, took to the skies, chasing after Tang Wen.
During yesterday's battle, it had overcome its instinctual fear and blinded one of the Transcendent Snapping Turtle's eyes.
Coupled with the High-Level Elixir Tang Wen had given it,
it had broken through its own limits, becoming a Blood Crow King.
However, the Blood Raven race had a low ceiling, and a Mid-level Exotic Beast was already the pinnacle of their kind.
"Awoo!"
Tang Wen's mount, the wolf, along with two high-level Sand Wolves, also gave chase.
Qian Dong felt slightly reassured but couldn't help feeling a twinge of envy: This freak's behavior was very similar to his own after his first use of a High-Level Elixir!
He must have gained significant benefits.
It's possible that his physique could reach an even higher level.
His expression was complicated.
Tang Wen ran like a beast across the wild landscape.
Every rock and obstacle in his path was shattered or crushed under his feet.
After running for who knows how far, he encountered a stone formation.
Massive boulders of varying heights stood upright, their origins and how they came to be arranged here unknown.
He didn't have time to ponder this. He charged in and unleashed his Cannon Fist!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Like a perpetual motion machine, he unleashed hundreds of strikes in an instant.
[Physique: 9.37 → 9.45]
The growth began to slow.
In the blink of an eye, over a hundred boulders were reduced to rubble by Tang Wen's fists!
He was drenched in sweat, and the heat within his body finally began to subside, but his skin remained a deep red.
[Physique: 9.45 → 9.50]
Tang Wen's stamina had surpassed the 9.5 mark, significantly narrowing the gap with his mental strength.
"Gurgle, gurgle."
The intense exertion had drained him, and a gnawing hunger began to set in.
Tang Wen sighed, "Things that make you stronger never come easy."
Though hungry, he didn't feel like moving anymore. He lay on the ground, forming a "Tai" character with his body.
His chest heaved as he took deep breaths.
After an unknown period, tiny grains of sand on the ground began to tremble.
This was the commotion caused by a large-scale movement of cavalry or similar horse-like creatures.
Was Qian Dong and his group arriving?
Tang Wen furrowed his brow and sat up: No, the direction was wrong.
The vibrations were coming from his left front.
That was—the direction of the Black Mountain Battalion!
"Caw!"
Tang Wen waved his hand towards the sky, and the Blood Raven flew off to investigate.
He pulled out a sweat-soaked pouch from his chest, not caring whether the meat slices inside were clean or not, and stuffed handfuls into his mouth.
"Caw, caw, caw, caw"
Before he could finish eating, the Blood Raven returned and landed on the ground.
"Is it the cavalry from the Black Mountain Battalion?" he asked indistinctly.
The Blood Raven nodded.
Its swift return indicated that the enemy cavalry was very close.
Tang Wen looked back and saw three black dots in the direction he had come from, quickly turning into the silhouettes of Three-headed Wolves.
Swallowing the dried meat in his mouth.
Tang Wen heard the sounds of battle and wanted to get closer to observe, but the area in front of the stone circle was too open, with nowhere to hide. He hadn't brought the Thousand-Li Mirror, so he couldn't watch from a distance.
Turning to look at the stone circle, he suddenly had an idea. He walked over, picked up a thousand-pound boulder, and strode forward with determination.
After walking half a mile in one go, he gently set down the boulder to conceal himself and peeked out.
Black-clad cavalrymen were circling on their horses.
The Blood Raven cawed a few times, and Tang Wen knew there were three people inside.
He continued forward, carrying the boulder.
After walking another hundred meters, he set down the stone and crouched to observe.
A forest of horse legs and the chaotic stomping of hooves.
Tang Wen could see clearly now; these dozens of cavalrymen were indeed from the Black Mountain Camp.
And seeing the legs of those inside the encirclement, he concluded that there were three people surrounded, or more accurately, three women.
Everything made sense now.
In the Black Mountain Camp, there were plenty of lustful devils.
Mobilizing a large force to hunt down three women was a routine matter for them.
What was unusual was that these three women clearly had some combat prowess.
Even when outnumbered, they were holding their ground.
Tang Wen stared at the Black Mountain Camp members and noticed that there were three Martial Masters leading the group.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Although the ones being besieged weren't from the Flame Camp.
Tang Wen still decided to lend a hand!
"Whoosh!"
A gust of wind swept by, and three Sand Wolves arrived behind Tang Wen.
"Perfect timing, you three."
Tang Wen mounted the lead wolf, stroking its furry ears, and casually instructed, "As wolves, you need to understand tactics. Later, you two go around there and start howling like crazy!"
The two wolves might not have understood, but they went anyway.
Tang Wen also gave a few instructions to the Blood Raven, which then flew off towards the rear.
Soon, howls came from the other side.
"Stay alert!"
A sentry from the Black Mountain Camp shouted.
"It's Sand Wolves!"
"High-level Sand Wolves."
"Damn it! A bunch of beasts daring to ruin my fun!" a Martial Master's angry voice echoed across the wilderness.
"Seventh Brother, it seems our brothers won't be able to take down these three little ladies anytime soon!"
"Yes, Seventh Brother, we're not too far from Flame Camp. It's best we finish this quickly... Huh?" The tall Martial Master glanced in Tang Wen's direction, which was also the direction of Flame Camp.
His brow suddenly twitched: "Seventh Brother, Third Brother, was there always a huge rock there?"
"What rock? Stop talking nonsense, Seventh Brother, Ninth Brother! Let's attack together!"
Ninth Brother, who had noticed the rock, felt uneasy but still followed his two brothers into the fray.
The three women in the encirclement felt their pressure increase sharply.
They had come from afar, fighting for their lives multiple times along the way.
Already injured and exhausted, they were no match for the fresh forces from Black Mountain Camp.
As soon as the fight began, they were quickly forced on the defensive.
Tang Wen, hiding behind the large rock, observed everything.
He wasn't in a hurry to intervene, quietly studying the martial arts techniques of both sides.
Among the Martial Masters from Black Mountain Camp, one used claw techniques while the other two employed the Dark Night Divine Fist.
The three Female Martial Experts displayed varied techniques - punches, kicks, and palm strikes, each distinct and sophisticated, their footwork agile. Despite their injuries, they managed to hold their own against the three men.
"Could they be Female Martial Experts from some major faction?"
The Sand Wolf beneath him grew restless, eager to charge out.
Tang Wen patted its head: "Don't be hasty. If they're truly from a major faction, they must have a backup plan!"
