The Rogue of Otherworldly Sovereign

  "Of course, but that's under the premise that you've obtained it. However, treasures come in many varieties, and some can instantly elevate a person's cultivation to a certain height. But this is extremely detrimental to a martial artist's future cultivation, making it difficult to make progress. So, while these treasures may seem excellent, only those of lower status are willing to use them.

  Those of higher status go to great lengths to seek out two other types of treasures. One type increases a person's innate potential. Many people have average talent and no matter how hard they work, they can't reach the level of a Martial Emperor. But with the Heaven and Earth treasure that washes the marrow and changes the blood, one can become an extremely talented individual, as the saying goes, 'reborn from the womb'.

  The other type is the Heaven and Earth treasure that clears the meridians. In addition to strengthening their physical body, a martial artist's most important goal is to make their internal energy stronger and more refined. As long as they can eliminate the impurities within their body, their cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds. At the same time, the pure power can give you an absolute advantage in battles against those of the same level."

  ……

  The next day, Yuan Ye invited Rui Guangde and Rui Xi to go hunting together, but was ruthlessly rejected. For Rui Guangde and his daughter, hunting was just about filling their stomachs, with no other requirements, while for Yuan Ye, hunting was more about cultivation.

  A warrior, the best way to cultivate is through actual combat, and it's that kind of life-or-death struggle. Only in such an environment can a warrior's strength increase exponentially. At the same time, only those who emerge from this path are truly strong. Every time he wins a big battle, successfully defeating a powerful demon beast, the joy of victory, the insight after the battle, and the progress of his strength all make Yuan Ye excited beyond measure. Unbeknownst to him, Yuan Ye has grown fond of this feeling of constantly fighting, constantly winning, and constantly growing stronger.

  At the same level, there is a significant difference between monsters and humans in combat. Monsters have extremely strong defense and attack power, but they can only use physical attacks. Humans, on the other hand, become faster than most monsters as they cultivate, and more importantly, they can increase their attack power exponentially with the help of weapons. Additionally, humans can also release their internal energy to unleash a formidable force. However, this is only possible for those who have reached the fourth-level warrior realm.

  In a battle of the same level, humans often rely on their own martial arts tactics to attack monsters many times, but monsters still have combat power because monsters' defensive and life forces are far stronger than humans. Once humans are attacked by monsters, they may be defeated in one move. At the same time, once being knocked down to the ground, it's almost a declaration of death, because on the ground, there is no human who can be a match for monsters. In a battle of the same level, if humans have no weapons, their chances of winning against monsters are extremely slim. If they have excellent divine arms and hard armor, the outcome will be about 50-50.

  Yuan Ye's first encounter with the Black Armored Leopard was exactly that, of course, Yuan Ye also had a part in being careless at the end of that battle. As his combat experience grew richer, Yuan Ye had already been injured multiple times by the magical beasts' final counterattacks before death, and he increasingly felt the truth behind the saying "a cornered beast will use its full strength".

  "Cheers! Death to the six-legged!"

  Deep in the forest, facing a giant fire-red lizard, Yuan Ye suddenly rose into the air, spinning around and fiercely kicking the lizard's head with one foot. The lizard's entire body was shocked backward, while Yuan Ye's body had already rotated 180 degrees, his other foot also fiercely coming down again.

  "Puff puff puff..."

  Six consecutive kicks, each with the power equivalent to Yuan Ye's strongest attack. Six of his strongest attacks almost occurred in an instant, simultaneously attacking the demon beast's vital points. This is Yuan Ye's strongest move created by combining the Demon-Sealing Sword Technique and actual combat experience.

  When he kicked the fifth foot, the lizard's head suddenly burst, Yuan Ye didn't stop, and the last foot was kicked out again. At the same time, the seventh foot rotated halfway, and Yuan Ye fell from the air, with his arm supporting the ground and panting heavily. The posture is extremely cool.

  "The seventh kick still hasn't come out. However, if it's the strongest attack, six consecutive hits on the enemy's vitals, even someone a level higher than me would undoubtedly die, heh heh, I'm indeed a genius."

  With great satisfaction, Yuan Ye carried the huge lizard's corpse on his back towards the small wooden house.

  A month passed, and Yuan Ye fought with magical beasts that were on par with his strength every day. There were poisonous ones, non-poisonous ones, those with high defensive scales, small and agile ones, flying ones, running ones, and climbing ones - he had battled them all. On this training ground, Yuan Ye broke through to the third-level warrior realm in just one month. The first level was the initial stage where internal energy appeared; the second level was where a warrior's internal energy had its own flow path; the third level was the warrior realm, where internal energy converged at the dantian, and with this storage of internal energy, a warrior's combat strength would greatly increase.

  Yuan Ye faced a blood lizard equivalent to a fourth-level martial general. Even if it was one level higher than Yuan Ye, being attacked six times in an instant would be fatal. If a human, even a fifth-level martial master, had their head kicked by Yuan Ye's Death Six Kicks, they would undoubtedly die. The Reverse Heaven Snow was originally an unparalleled domineering technique, and Yuan Ye created the Death Six Kicks in this killing spree, making it even more domineering.

  It's been a long time since Yuan Ye has fought against monsters that are only one level higher than himself. At the same level, those monsters aren't even opponents.

  "Uncle Rui, Xiaoxi, I'm back!" As he walked into the small wooden house, Yuan Ye's bright and clear voice rang out.

  "Brother Yao," Rui Xi came up with a smile all over her face, "you've killed another such powerful demon beast!"

  "Haha, isn't it awesome?" Yuan Ye winked at Rui Xi. After spending a lot of time together, Yuan Ye finally realized that Rui Xi was just a little girl who didn't understand anything. She had been brought to this beast domain by her father since she was young and had never come into contact with anyone else. Even when speaking, Rui Xi wasn't clear. Not to mention human etiquette, culture, and other things, she didn't even understand the intrigue and deception between humans. At least in the past month, Yuan Ye had secretly taken advantage of her several times, but Rui Xi still didn't know she was being taken advantage of.

  (Hmm... everyone knows what kind of person Yuan Ye is, if it affects the image like this, then let's not talk about it later, we just understand in our hearts.)

  Rui Xi is a little girl who doesn't understand anything, always on guard against strangers, but once she considers you family, she will open her heart to you without any defenses or ulterior motives. In his free time, Yuan Ye would tell Rui Xi about the outside world, telling her about bustling streets, tall buildings, beautiful clothes, lovely trinkets, and those beautifully romantic love stories that had happened before.

  Rui Xi always had her chin down, staring at Yuan Ye with a dazed expression. She listened for a very long time without realizing it, and before she knew it, Rui Xi's heart was opened by Yuan Ye. Apart from her father, Yuan Ye was the only man Rui Xi had contact with. Her father was family, but what about Yuan Ye? Rui Xi herself seemed to understand yet not understand.

  Yuan Ye also had a bit of conscience. When he first met Rui Xi, looking at her sexy and explosive figure and face, his desire for rebellion was very strong. However, as he got in touch with Rui Xi, Rui Xi's simplicity, Rui Xi's innocence, made Yuan Ye no longer have those lustful thoughts. It wasn't that he didn't have them, but rather Yuan Ye warned himself multiple times: Rui Xi is a very simple and good girl, I must hold on, if I can't hold on and something happens, then I'll have to take responsibility for the rest of my life.

  Yuan Ye didn't want to take on that responsibility so early, so he continued to endure painfully.
