If it came to running Xiao long sure had lot of practice,it was just a few days ago he competed with those brats.After he escaped into the mist he ran almost half an hour before scanning the surrounding and making sure the scrawny beast wasn't on his tail.
' I must finish tempering my body first ,then enter the Battle tower and lastly get my vengeance ',he made a plan.
Following the resonance of blood he found a large blood pool and it's quality seemed greater than the others ,even in this layer he was sure it was among the best , but it was guarded but a few blood asuras."' it seems fate is on my side, I get to complete torso refinement and get a few blood crystals " he muttered what he didn't say was he gets to vent the monkeys humiliation.
Those poor blood asuras didn't know that they have already been marked for death .
Counting their numbers they were about a dozen .Having learnt not to dare underestimate the enemy he decided to divide them then hunt the separately. He first wanted to make noise to attract some of them but he ruled that out " since they don't know I am here I might as well kill the two in the outer area of the pool then run" he muttered with a smile praising his ingenuity.A classic narcissist.
Taking action he tip toes towards his prey ,the blood asuras have a very low situation awareness especially when they begin refining blood essence they are pretty vulnerable to outside attacks . The reason being they are just resentments that gained the ability to condense their bodies through blood absorption and killing each other.
Nearing them he pounces at them choose two kicking one on the head sending it flying off and the other he plucks it head off,before the others could react he flees back into the mist and hides.
Roars of anger fill the surrounding as the asura realize their own kins have been murdered near them. The strong ones react quickly following Xiao long into the mist only to loose sight of him.
Xiao long began his hunt ,if these poor asuras just stayed silent it may have taken him some time to find them but the poor bastards just had to look for him while growling in their dissatisfaction.
Following the noise Xiao long finds three of them moving together searching the surrounding . Although there don't have high intelligence they make sure not to separate,but their little group don't deter Xiao longs resolve to hint them down,He follows behind them like a preditor waiting for one to make a mistake and he shall deliver his judgement.
After searching around and not finding him they decide to return to the pool . Xiao long whistles slowly making sure only one asura heard him , foolishly it stops for a moment and that's how it met its end. Picking up the Blood crystal the hunter dissapears into the mist .
The little commotion here attracts the other two as soon as they realize their compadre is missing but that's where the signed their death warrants.Xiao long doesn't care if there are two even four if he decides to risk it all .
Arriving at the killing zone they find nothing " whee" Xiao long whistles again the asuras turn around only to be met with a punch and a kick knocking one down ,he stomped its head down killing it while the other one is disoriented from the punch , but that doesn't last long as it witnesses it kins death fueled with anger it pounces at Xiao long who doesn't care that it was grieving ,catching it's head and knocking it's knees it kneels before him he then plucks it's head swiftly .
If there was someone here they would appreciated his last kill,as it was meticulously executed.
Picking up the crystals and shoving them inside his clothes he flees the scene as the noise sure attracted other asuras.
Xiao long continues his hunt for a whole day then decided to check on his spoils inform of crystals.Counting the crystals he is astonished as they are many than the asuras he counted in the pool they are doubled ." Dammit I guess I have been hunting some wondering asuras " he muttered.
Following the resonance he returns to the pool lucky for him it seems among those wondering asuras he hunted majority were from this pool.He would have been very disappointed if he found out that he hunted the wrong asuras. Some Poor asuras didn't know their deaths were because of being at the wrong place at the wrong time .
Removing his clothes he jumps in a continues his tempering , tempering torso was easy except for the spine which if not careful might leave you crippled, although they were pills to treat you if crippled it made the second time you tried to temper it a hundred times difficult.
In another part of the Realm a young lady carrying a large bone was chasing down a dozen of asuras bashing their skulls out .Xiao Li fell into the third layer inside a pool surrounded by blood asuras and from the aura they were releasing they were in the top body tempering realm.They nearly gave the little lady a heart attack.If not for them not caring about the little fly her little life would have have being in peril.
Seeing them ignore her began to cultivate there.Her guts were beyond comparison ,or she was just ignorant.She tempered her Legs first then her hands,legs torso and skull completing the bone tempering. Then she began to refine her meridian but thats where her troubles began ,the asuras began to notice the essence inside the pool was drying up quickly and the root of this problem was this little ant.Xiao Li was woken up for her meditative state by a resounding slap that threw her out of the pool getting up she retreated fast and fleed into he mist.She was smarter than Xiao long not testing her enemies competence.
Due to her pettiness she began hunting down all the weaker asuras she found leading to this moment where she was bashing their skulls in.
Xiao Weis luck was pretty good as he fell near a mountain range . Searching around he found a cave full of blood essence and the quality was top tier ,another thing was there were no asuras in the area ,to top his luck there were a few thousand crystals at the bottom of the pool.
' if those bastard knows of this they will sure skin me alive ' he thought as he continued tempering his meridians.
