Chapter 2
C2 – The Power of the Maximum Level Cloud Slashing Palm
The Fire Wolf’s repeated attacks were effortlessly anticipated by Jiaang Lin, who dodged with ease, igniting a fiery rage within the beast. It was infuriating for such a formidable creature to waste so much time on a mere human—a fact that would surely bring ridicule from its peers.
Suddenly, the Fire Wolf’s body burst into a frenzy of flames, its speed increasing more than tenfold. Its eyes glinted with a savage, bloodthirsty light; it could no longer contain its fury. This attack was destined to annihilate the insignificant human before it!
But in that very moment, the Fire Wolf was taken aback as the human’s presence became as imposing as a mountain range, as profound as the ocean depths. It was as though a cataclysmic hurricane had erupted, shattering mountains and reversing the tides, making the Fire Wolf feel utterly insignificant.
How could this be? The human had shown no sign of such power before! How could he now possess such an overwhelming presence?
Amidst this eerie turn of events, fear took root in the Fire Wolf’s heart. As it launched its attack, it unleashed a piercing howl: Cloud Slashing Palm!
Jiaang Lin felt an immense force erupt from his palm, as if guided by an unseen consciousness. He followed this mysterious guidance and struck out at the Fire Wolf with his palm. In a flash, a tempest raged, toppling mountains and upending seas.
A golden palm imprint struck the Fire Wolf squarely, its eyes wide with terror. It was reduced to a mound of flesh without even a chance to cry out. The golden imprint didn’t stop there; it continued its path of destruction, striking a mountain a kilometer away and leaving a colossal imprint.
Jiaang Lin gazed at his palm in stunned silence before exclaiming in awe, “Incredible! This system is unbelievably powerful!” His voice bubbled with elation, “Armed with this limitless skill and system, I’m now more confident than ever that I can become the ultimate champion!” With the defeat of the Fire Wolf, he earned one experience point.
After defeating the Fire Wolf, the option to activate the Capture Function appeared. Would he choose to capture it?
Yes.
No.
“What’s the Capture Function?” Jiaang Lin asked, clearly puzzled. It seemed there were many features of this system he had yet to discover.
Answer!
The Capture Function is triggered upon the host’s successful kill of a demonic beast, which can then be captured. The beast is resurrected, imprinted with the host’s soul, and sworn to eternal loyalty and service to the host!
“So, you’re saying I can enlist a demonic beast as my minion?”
Answer!
Yes!
“Awesome! Having a demonic beast as my mount would be incredibly cool!”
Jiaang Lin imagined himself riding the Fire Wolf and taming an array of demonic beasts, his heart racing with anticipation!
Once his power grew enough, could he even tame the mythical Dragon?!
“Dragon!”
The thought of soaring through the skies atop a dragon filled Jiaang Lin with excitement, and he made an immediate decision.
He had to grow stronger, and when the time came, he would claim a Dragon as his mount!
Capture successful! The beast has been added to the Mount Space!
Just as Jiaang Lin was about to summon the newly tamed Fire Wolf, his expression shifted dramatically!
A series of wolf howls pierced the air. Jiaang Lin turned towards the source of the noise, his skin crawling with dread.
Nine Flame Beast Demonic Wolves were advancing towards him in a semicircle, effectively encircling him!
Each of the nine Flame Beast Demonic Wolves snarled menacingly, their sharp claws and fierce fangs sending shivers down Jiaang Lin’s spine.
Jiaang Lin, an ordinary man from a stable society, couldn’t help but feel fear when confronted with such unfamiliar and daunting creatures in this strange new world.
