Chapter 159 Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations
At the same time, in a corner of the abandoned city, there were broken walls everywhere.
Numerous monsters that were about the size of an ordinary person were roaring in low voices. These monsters were as tall as a human and looked like hunting dogs. However, its entire body was covered with a mix of red and black fur. Its eyes were red and looked extremely terrifying
These were monsters of the dog family called the Redback Jackal. This kind of monster had a savage nature and was extremely difficult to deal with. Moreover, this kind of Redback Jackal liked to live in groups, and they liked to hunt together every time they went out to hunt.
"I didn't expect we'd immediately run into Redback Jackals!" Gao Hongzhi said, "Although a single-headed Redback Jackal is nothingone is equivalent to an ordinary Qi Sea Stage cultivator—it looks like there are at least ten of them. There are only three of us. How are we going to deal with them?"
"I checked when I came here just now. This area is the territory of the Redback Jackals. Although these Redback Jackals are not very strong individually, when the numbers add up, they can be very scary. Those monsters also have to take a detour. If we want to meet other monsters, we have to pass through at least half of the city!" Tang Siyu said.
"Let's stick to this place. I'm afraid there will be other hunters hunting the monsters in other places. With our strength, it would be very troublesome if we encounter Energy Refinement Stage monsters. These Redback Jackals are not very strong, but there are enough of them. It's just right for us to train," Chu Yunfan concluded after some thought. If he encountered a large number of Energy Refinement Stage monsters, then he would not be training anymore. He would be digging his own grave. These Redback Jackals were just right. Ordinary hunters would not be interested in these Redback Jackals. There were not many valuable parts on their bodies, and their grades were not high either. It was written in the beginner-level monster hunter handbook that Redback Jackals were suitable for beginners to practice.
"But what should we do with so many of them? Are you going to become a tank and lure the monsters over?" Gao Hongzhi said.
"Once these Redback Jackals are alerted, they'll form a group. It's useless to lure them!" Chu Yunfan said.

He was very clear about the habits of Redback Jackals. The school had a course on monster identification. It was similar to Biology class in the Common Era. "Both of you lure one of them away. Leave the rest to me," Chu Yunfan said.
"D*mn, there are more than ten of them. How are you going to pull it off alone?" Gao Hongzhi almost choked on his saliva.
"I can try out my movement technique. Don't worry, I can do it," Chu Yunfan said. "In that case, I'm going!" Gao Hongzhi rushed out with his spear.
He immediately attracted the attention of the Redback Jackals and pounced on them. Tang Siyu also rushed out after taking a breath and stopped one of the Redback Jackals. Gao Hongzhi then led the group of Redback Jackals and ran to the other side.
"F*ck! Yunfan, hurry!" Gao Hongzhi roared.
Suddenly, a figure flew out like a cannonball and landed in the middle of the Redback Jackals, stopping a group of them.
Slash!
The attack forced the Redback Jackals to retreat. Only one of them chased after Gao Hongzhi.

However, in just a moment, these Redback Jackals surrounded this uninvited guest from all directions and pounced on him. Chu Yunfan was in the middle. He slashed out his saber and hit a Redback Jackal that pounced on him. This Redback Jackal's face was instantly covered in blood. Although the skull was the hardest part of a monster's body, it still was not ideal to be hit by such a direct attack.
The other dozen or so Redback Jackals pounced on him. Chu Yunfan blocked left and right, but he was still pounced on several times. Fortunately, he was wearing battle armor, so he was not torn apart.
Although he was in an extremely dangerous situation, Chu Yunfan was calm. This incident made him realize that he still had a weakness, and that was the lack of passable movement technique.
Whether it was the Devilish Tiger Punches, the Roaring Winds Saber Technique, or the Earth Splitting Saber Technique, they all had a certain level of movement. However, these techniques were mainly used to coordinate attacks, and were not meant for evading.
When fighting with someone one-on-one, there was nothing much to it. Most of the competition was about physical fitness and reaction speed. However, in this environment surrounded by many monsters, similar to when fighting in groups, the speed of movement was important. Originally, this would not be considered a weakness. Compared to other martial arts, there were very few movement techniques. Generally, people would just use normal techniques. These were not considered movement techniques. If one did not have a great background, one would usually only have a chance to come into contact with movement techniques in the Acquired Stage. If Chu Yunfan had known any movement techniques, he would have been able to fight the man who was following them alone. His ability to protect himself would have greatly increased.
After realizing this, Chu Yunfan immediately decided to make up for his shortcomings. He began to search the movement techniques in his mind and immediately chose one. It was the most suitable choice for him.
It was a type of footwork called Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations. It was a mysterious movement technique. After mastering it, one could instantly change their body shape nine times.
It was also something that the Alchemy Emperor had obtained through his travels around the world. Although its grade was not very high, it was mysterious enough. With the Alchemy Emperor's standards, it would be impossible for it to catch his eye if it was useless.
As he dealt with the Redback Jackals that pounced on him, he called upon the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations in his mind. Countless incantations and movement techniques surged through his mind. It was as if someone was practicing the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations right in front of his eyes. It was adding to his knowledge. His body moved according to the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations.
Gao Hongzhi and Tang Siyu were observing Chu Yunfa as they fought. After all, Chu Yunfan was having the most difficult time as he had to fend off more than ten Redback Jackals at once. The situation was fraught with danger. He had been pounced on several times. If he had not been protected by the armor, he would have been torn apart in a single bite.
However, slowly, they realized that something was wrong. Chu Yunfan's movements began to gain a rhythm that they could not understand. He was using footwork that no one could understand. With this footwork, Chu Yunfan had managed to dodge several Redback Jackals' surprise attacks consecutively. His mistakes had decreased a lot.
His movements looked elegant and smooth.
Chapter 160 The Martial Art Treasure Hidden Within Him
Chu Yunfan slowly became more and more proficient in the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations, and his mistakes started to lessen. Each time, there should have been no room for him to dodge, but he was still able to dodge it.
Moreover, his movements became more and more elegant. In the span of a step, he had already dodged the attacks from the Redback Jackal.
"D*mn, is he cheating or taking some medicine?" Gao Hongzhi could not help but shout when he saw this scene.
"It's a movement technique." Tang Siyu immediately realized. Chu Yunfan was using some kind of movement technique.
Moreover, the level of this movement technique was very high. One would avoid fatal threats with only a very small amount of movement.
"D*mn, where did he learn this movement technique? My dad even said that he would spend money to buy me a set of movement techniques later. How does he have so many secrets? I'm getting more and more confused," Gao Hongzhi could not help but say with a puzzled look. He felt that this good friend of his was becoming more and more mysterious. Every time he saw him, he felt as if he had not seen him for a long time, because he always had the feeling that Chu Yunfan was always improving by leaps and bounds.
"No wonder he chose to stay here. In this kind of group attack situation, training one's movement techniques is actually the best," Tang Siyu said. She immediately stopped looking at Chu Yunfan. Since she knew that he was training his movement technique, then there should not be any danger. From the moment she noticed Chu Yunfan until now, she knew that Chu Yunfan was not the kind of person who would do things that he was not confident of. Also, the Redback Jackal in front of her was also very difficult to deal with!
After an hour, Chu Yunfan's movements were finally smooth, and he managed to link all the movements together. He shuttled between the Redback Jackals, and the Redback Jackals found it very difficult to hurt him.

"I've finally mastered the first of the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations!"
Chu Yunfan revealed a look of joy. Each change of the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations was a step forward. He could only use the first three because he was only in the Sea Qi Stagethe others would have to wait.
This was because Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations took a high toll on ones' body. It required unimaginable levels of dodging movements. If one's physical quality was not good, their muscles would be pulled and the bones would break instantly. The physical body was the starting point and the foundation of all cultivation!
Although he had only mastered the first transformation, all of his movements had begun to become very smooth. He shuttled between more than a dozen Redback Jackals, but the Redback Jackals could not even touch the corner of his clothes.
He began to incorporate the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations into his saber techniques. Instantly, his power increased greatly. The Redback Jackals could do nothing to him. He could attack at will from an undefeatable position.
In a short while, more than a dozen Redback Jackals had died at his hands. The longer he went, the fewer Redback Jackals there were. Chu Yunfan's attacks became more relaxed. At this time, Gao Hongzhi and Tang Siyu had already killed the Redback Jackal that they had lured away earlier.
Chu Yunfan recovered some of the True Energy in his body. The amazing recovery ability of the Mighty Eternal Emperor Method was fully displayed. He had just fought for an hour, but he had already recovered.
"Yunfan, were you practicing your movement technique just now?" Gao Hongzhi asked.
"Yes, that's right. I was practicing my movement technique," Chu Yunfan said. "I was talking to my dad about whether we should buy a movement technique. I didn't expect you to learn it so quickly!" Gao Hongzhi said.
"When we were fighting with others before, it didn't matter much whether we had movement techniques or not. But now that we're hunting monsters on the battlefield, we can be surrounded by a group of monsters at any time. At this time, it's crucial to learn a movement technique," Chu Yunfan said to them.
Gao Hongzhi and Tang Siyu thought for a moment and agreed. After all, some monsters were used to traveling alone, but most of them traveled in groups.
"However, movement techniques cost a lot of money because it's hard to find a movement technique on the market now. Even unrated movement techniques would cost over a million. Movement techniques that are classified are very rare. Usually, they can only be seen at auctions," Gao Hongzhi said.
Compared to other martial skills, the number of movement techniques available was indeed side, and the number of ruins excavated was also very small. Currently, the movement techniques that were popular on the market were ordinary. Many of them were unrated movement techniques. Some of these movement techniques were dug out from the ruins, and some were created by modern martial arts masters. But generally speaking, it was not easy to obtain them.
Chu Yunfan nodded. Ordinary martial skills, apart from some mediocre ones, were divided into a few categories: ordinary, earth, sky, and so on. And these categories were further divided into four categories: primary, intermediate, advanced, and peak. These were all divided according to the information found in the excavated ruins. However, Chu Yunfan knew from the memories of the Alchemy Emperor that above the sky-grade, there were the so-called royal and divine grades.
However, according to the information released by the Federation Government, no one seemed to have obtained any royal or divine grade martial skills. Therefore, heaven-grade had become the highest grade of martial skills known to ordinary people.
S
That was only limited to ordinary people though. Chu Yunfan knew that the Mighty Eternal Emperor Method he practiced was probably a martial skill at the peak of the royal grade. It was a martial skill created by a peerless emperor back then.
The more one practiced this martial skill, the more amazing it would be. As for divine-grade martial skills, even in the era of the Alchemy Emperor, they were only legendary martial skills.
The Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations should be a martial skill at the peak of heaven-grade. After practicing it fully, there would be endless variations in footwork. It was extremely shocking.
This was also the reason why it was collected by the Alchemy Emperor. Although it was not at the royal-grade, it was still extremely useful for the cultivation of his disciples. If word of this spread, just the price alone would be unimaginable. If a heaven-grade martial skill were to be auctioned off, it would be enough to cause the entire human race to raise their eyebrows.
"How about this? I'll teach you two sets of movement techniques. You have to promise me that you won't tell anyone about it. No one is to know!" Chu Yunfan said after thinking for a moment. If Gao Hongzhi and Tang Siyu knew movement techniques, it would undoubtedly be much safer.
There were quite a number of movement techniques contained within the Alchemy Emperor's memories. Although they could not compare to the Heavenly Deity Nine Transformations, they were still top-quality. The Alchemy Emperor's memories in his mind were like an endless stream of martial arts treasures.
"Yunfan, that wouldn't be nice, right?" Gao Hongzhi felt that it was inappropriate. He felt like he would be taking advantage of Chu Yunfan.
"Why are you being so polite with me? Did you say anything when I freeloaded from you in the past?" Chu Yunfan said with a smile.
"All right then!" Gao Hongzhi nodded.
What Chu Yunfan did not expect was that Tang Siyu agreed to it more readily and did not shy away.
