Chapter 163: Chapter 141: Escape from Danger Chapter 163: Chapter 141: Escape from Danger Transversal Mountain Range, a few kilometers away from Moyang Peak.
Two young men hurried through a mountain hollow.
One of them, a black-haired youth, had a pale complexion, his footsteps unsteady, and his breath weak.
The other, a yellow-haired youth, had clothes long stained dark red with blood, and injuries covered his body.
Especially the wounds that pierced his abdomen and tore open his back, revealing white bones.
It was horrifying!
If not for the vigorously boiling blood in the yellow-haired youth rapidly repairing his injuries, he would have died countless times already!
Even so, the yellow-haired youth’s eyes showed exhaustion.
His Star Power was nearly depleted, only maintaining his current state with all his might.
These two battered figures were none other than Huang Xiang and Su Yuan, who had fought their way down from Moyang Peak.
The deaths of the Golden Armored Sword Dragon Beast and other Star Beasts caused quite a commotion.
It wasn’t just the initial group; other Star Beasts were drawn to the noise from all directions.
Altogether, five Silver Star Beasts appeared!
After embedding Boiling Blood and Blast Bull Demon Fist, Huang Xiang’s strength increased dramatically.
He killed two Silver Star Beasts and over thirty Bronze Star Beasts, finally managing to bring Su Yuan out of Moyang Peak.
However, even so, facing five Silver Star Beasts and dozens of Bronze Star Beasts, Huang Xiang was severely injured.
The Entry-level Boiling Blood was already running on overload.
Huang Xiang persisted purely through his super strong will and unusual adaptation talent.
“They shouldn’t be chasing us anymore.
Let’s find a place up ahead,” Su Yuan said softly.
“Okay!” Huang Xiang nodded through gritted teeth.
They walked into the hollow and found a relatively hidden location to stop.
Huang Xiang focused, deactivating Boiling Blood.
The boiling blood energy around him retracted into his body after a brief surge.
The agility and recovery effect of Boiling Blood vanished.
Exhaustion and pain struck fiercely, causing Huang Xiang to black out.
Su Yuan was startled, quickly stepping forward to check on him.
“Luckily, though the injuries are severe, they haven’t worsened.
He’s just exhausted.”
Su Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
He had feared that stopping Boiling Blood would cause adverse effects, worsening Huang Xiang’s injuries.
But it appeared that the internal injuries remained the same, as if Boiling Blood had no side effects.
Raising his right hand, Su Yuan gathered the Star Power that had just recovered slightly, summoning a Holy Light Baptism to further treat Huang Xiang’s wounds.
“Boiling Blood…
this card is truly special.” Su Yuan lowered his arm, his eyes thoughtful.
Clearly, this card was an enhancement card with strict activation conditions, not to be used frivolously.
But once activated, due to its uniqueness, it had no side effects.
Moreover, its enhancement strength was on par with T1 enhancement cards, and in extreme conditions, it could even exceed them.
No wonder the Purple Flame Lion could unexpectedly counter two Hellfires in armed form!
For most people, this card was cumbersome and inconvenient due to its activation conditions.
But for someone with adaptation talent, who frequently cultivated under high pressure, Boiling Blood was ideal, almost a T0.5 level card!
A special card for a special person.
“However, from now on, Huang Xiang might be in for some hard times…”
Su Yuan prematurely felt pity for Huang Xiang.
To fully utilize Boiling Blood’s power, Huang Xiang would inevitably suffer more, even learning self-harming techniques to hurt enemies.
Two days later, Su Yuan and Huang Xiang had almost recovered.
Not only that, but with a surge of Star Power, Huang Xiang broke through to the Bronze Middle Stage in one go!
“Su Yuan, I’ve broken through!” Huang Xiang exclaimed joyfully, jumping up in excitement.
“No bottleneck at all…” Su Yuan was amazed, then nodded and smiled, “Congratulations, you were already close to the Middle Stage.
Given this risky experience, your breakthrough was inevitable with your adaptation talent!”
“Yes, nothing I experienced before was as intense as this, fighting through dozens of Star Beasts from Moyang Peak!
Su Yuan, following you is too thrilling!”
Even with lingering fear in his eyes, Huang Xiang also showed excitement.
Su Yuan smiled wryly.
He did not wish to go through such an ordeal again.
While having reliable friends was good, it was best to keep one’s fate firmly in one’s own hands.
But given the situation then, he had no other options.
Facing the Golden Armored Sword Dragon Beast and the Red-striped Winged Divine Bird, he could have retreated, but since Huang Xiang helped him collect Flare Silver Branch, abandoning him was impossible.
So he had to go all out, kill the three Silver Master Star Beasts, and deal with the aftermath.
Looking back, although the White Flame stage of the Great Sun Burning Body Technique was incredibly powerful, it was too much for a Bronze Level to handle.
Unless absolutely necessary, it should not be used again…
“Though I have the Flare Silver Branch, I plan to hunt around here for a few days before going back.
What about you, Huang Xiang?”
“Do you need my help in hunting?”
“No, just hunting some ordinary Star Beasts.”
“Then I’ll head back first.
Hunting ordinary Star Beasts, I’ll just slow you down.”
Su Yuan shook his head with a smile: “Not really, but you’ve been here too long.
You should go back and rest properly; you’re almost a wild man!”
Huang Xiang nodded and smiled: “Yes, I’ll hand in the task and then quickly train with the Boiling Blood and Blast Bull Demon Fist you gave me!”
Talking about these two Blue Cards, Huang Xiang felt grateful, his expression serious.
“Su Yuan, if you need anything in the future, as long as you don’t mind my strength being insufficient, I’ll be there on call!
Even if I can’t be of much help, I can lend a hand!”
“I will call you if needed,” Su Yuan smiled, “after all, you are my first friend at Demon Capital Academy.”
Huang Xiang chuckled.

Su Yuan turned and asked: “But won’t training skill levels here with Star Beast combat improve the effect?”
“No need, my talent allows continuous progress just by practicing the skills, even against air.
But this often drains my Star Power, so the academy’s Cultivation Room is better.”
Su Yuan clicked his tongue: “I see, no wonder your skill levels are so high; you truly are blessed…”
“Hahaha, my talent is nothing compared to yours!” Huang Xiang scratched his head embarrassingly.
Su Yuan shook his head with a smile; you rely on innate talent, I rely on external help.
Don’t compare with me…
