Along the way yang feng did not encounter many people and if there were people in his vicinity he would avoid them because anyone going on this path was either someone going to hunt in the demon forest or someone hunting other people.
He would get something to eat in the morning, then travel either by using his movement technique or by walking, when the night approached he would look for shelter near him or if near a city he would enter the city and look for an inn.
Due to the constant use of his movement technique and his own comprehension ability that had increased during his physique's partial awakening, he improved his technique by much. He was confident that unless it was someone in separation and Reunion realm who wanted to catch up to him would not be able to do so.
In this order he traveled for more than 3 weeks and now in front of him was a forest with trees more than 40 meters tall. The trees have shrouded the entire place in darkness, with only little amount of light passing through. He was certain that if an ordinary person was to enter this place, he would not be able to see anything beyond 5 meter distance of himself.
" And this is only the outermost layer of the forest...", yang feng thought while looking at the majestic and eerie forest in front of him. He took a deep breath and started walking inside the forest.
As he went deeper and deeper into the forest, voices of monsters growling,squeaking and howling could be heard in the distance. Although yang feng had prepared himself for this he still felt goosebumps hearing those noises.
It took him only a second to recompose himself and move forward. He was confident that there would be nothing in the outermost layers of the forest that could threaten him because the highest level of monster beast usually found in the outer layer was a peak 2nd tier(Peak Qi Transformation realm).
So if he remains in the outer layer for now he will be able to accumulate experience of fighting with monsters bent on killing him, while also being able to escape if something unusual happened.
He kept on going deeper into the forest, along the way he saw some 1st tier. But the monsters either didn't bother him or ran way after seeing him. So he kept on moving forward and kept on changing his directions to completely explore the forest in his surroundings.
After an hour of exploration, he heard a howl from the distance along with the sound of fighting. Curious, he moved towards the direction the sounds originated from. In a few minutes, he reached his destination. The trees here looked to have seen better days, there were deep claw marks on some, some were thrashed and some were even unrooted.
Among the trees he saw a wolf that was about 5 feet tall, covered in light wounds and in front of the said wolf laid what looked to be a giant rat, which was about 2 and half feet tall.
But the thing that caught his attention was the aura of both monsters beasts. Both the wolf and the rat were 2nd order beasts, but the wolf's cultivation was 2 stages lower than the rat who was at the 8th stage. He also saw some type of flower, which had not been plucked and was absorbing the Qi from the heaven and earth, near the wolf.
The wolf as if smelled something, turned towards him. Just as yang feng thought that the wolf would growl at him a bit to leave and then recover. The wolf however didn't play by the same book as him, and pounced at him which caught him off-guard and unable to fully react in time.
{A-Note: well...this is his first time coming into contact with a monster beast...}
Yang feng, naive as he was decided to fight the wolf and see where his limit was. So he quickly readied himself to fight while the wolf got out of his shock that the little ant was able to dodge his attack.
The wolf again launched at him at such speed that yang feng had no choice to use his movement technique to barely dodge the attack. The wolf having anticipated this somewhat turn midair and sweeped his paw at him.
Yang feng with his non-existent battle scene was not able to dodge the incoming paw and was thrown back violently, crashing into a tree. Yang feng groaned feeling pain from his chest, when he looked down he saw nail marks on his lower chest and abdominal with some blood leaking from said marks.
He grew a little scared, if the wolf was a little close he might have been able to attack him on his neck. The little fear he felt was soon replaced into rage and determination the next second as he slowly stood up, carefully noting that the wound was not deep and would heal within a few days even without treatment.
When he stood up and looked across himself, he saw the wolf had also stabilized itself and again rush towards him. This time yang feng did not want to just dodge, he took a boxing stance which gave him high mobility and watched the wolf come close to him.
When the wolf was close enough, he focused his Qi in his right hand and shifted his upper weight to his right arm and lower weight to his left leg, bending his waist forward and tilted to the left side.
The wolf seeing his actions was angry and amused, angry that the human wants fight with him in terms of physical power and amused that he thought he would win.
Though that amusement did not last for long because as soon as the punch connected to the wolf's jaw yang feng used his Overlord Fist Technique which made the Qi transmitted to his fist to be released in form of a small shockwave that passed through to the wolf's skin to it's muscles, it's bones, and to it's brain. The wolf was pushed back by a few meters with a broken jaw and a rattling sound in it's ears, blood leaking from the left side of his face and a numb mind.
Yang feng was also not unharmed. His arm was bleeding and feeling heavy because he had used nearly all of his physical strength backed by a good amount of his Qi in that attack.
He saw that the wolf was not focused on him, so he sprinted towards the wolf using his movement technique to the fullest, to end the battle as fast as he can.
