Chapter 9: It's Raining Punches
After Lin Long Tian packed up all forty jade bottles, he started exploring other parts of the mountain to stretch out his limbs he walked out into different layers of the mountain and could find nothing interesting. " Hm, since it took only a year for my cultivation to increase I guess it would be best to get some battle experience."
Lin Long Tian went into a daze as he saw clips of his past life, how he was at the peak of cultivation
but still lost due to the fact that he was a greenhorn when it came too fighting and battle experience because he got to depended on his family background and his so called talent.
Lin Long Tian walked out to the section that he dug up and started removing all the dirt blocking his way which took only an hour, as a rank six body tempering cultivator gave him 600 jin of strength due to fact that in each body tempering stage you get 100 jin of strength each time you progress. But for most cultivator that strength gain stops when they reach enter stage one inner core because most cultivator find been a body cultivator not hard but just a waste of resources.
He walked to a thick chunky tree and charged up his bare hands which was throbing with of six hundred jin of strength and rained punches on the tree, it took thirty minutes for Lin Long Tian to knock the tree over as he had yet to use any of his essence in his dantian because they all went to tempering his body.
He started peeling the tree open and carved a blunt shaped knife which he could use to train with by killing magical beast in the forest. He then went back into the mountain to take a nap to rest up so he could be at one hundred percent while hunting.
The next day Lin Long Tian heard loud and unrestrained snoring, then crept closer to where he heard the noise coming from and saw a rank one magical beast and recognized it from his past life to be a
matured black spotted tiger which was currently napping beside a tree . He slowly approached the tiger releasing killing intent, the black spotted tiger being a rank one magical beast had to bulid some ability to sense killing intent or it would have been killed before it was matured.
The black spotted tiger let out a loud roar which shook Lin Long Tian eardrums, this roar was released to frighten him off but as stubborn as he was he started coming closer toward the animal and didn't bother hiding as it could sense him.
He held the knife in one hand and picked up a stone and aimed it at the tiger's left eye, but he missed as the tiger evaded it with a sense of accomplishment written on his face as he gloated toward where Lin Long Tian was previously standing but could not see him, until he felt a cut on his left hind leg which started bleeding thick red blood by the second.
Lin Long Tian with a proud look on his face as the tiger was whining out in pain, looked to his hand which held the knife was nothing more than a broken thick splinter at this point. He tossed it aside and with passion "A real man can fight with nothing but his fist anyway."
He ran toward the injuried tiger who was slowly licking his wound in an attempt to speed up his healing and started throwing punches at him. At first Lin Long Tian was been hit by the tiger more than he was hitting him but he started learning the pattern of the tiger and it became easier to evade it's claws.
After a fierce battle the tiger was finally down to it's last breath but it still refuse to give up and wanted to take Lin Long Tian down with him, Lin Long Tian also exhausted as they were fighting for an hour and he had to stretch his attention not only toward the tiger, but any animal which might ambush him.
Lin Long Tian crouched and jumped towards the tiger to add more stress on his injured legs which was needed for his plans to work, the tiger jumped towards him as well but only using his front legs which was a little tricky for him to do so he used up a lot more time and Lin Long Tian switched his plan caught him unguarded and sent a punch aimed directly for his neck.
The black spotted tiger died at last, but Lin Long Tian staring at his blood filled hand felt a bit sick as in his past life he never had to kill, he just had to cultivate which created a huge weakness when he got ambushed by those "friends" of his.
Lin Long Tian roared "No, this life of mine will be different than my last life. I won't be hesistant to help my friends or family and if that means I have to kill a budhha or a devil then so be it."
Unknown to Lin Long Tian, Mu Meiyin had seen him have this personal growth of his and was extremely proud. She waved her dazzling ink like hair and looked off to the side of a mountain and thought silently " Maybe I should take him to that cave." Mu Meiyin then vanished into the wind leaving no trace.
He ran deeper into the forest and started hunting rank one magical beast each day, and eating only what he killed. Three months later he became filled with blood as he walked through letting off a massive killing intent, every wild beast started to avoid him.
Lin Long Tian just killed a wind rabbit, which was a rank one magical beast known for it's speed and agility which was highly effective in forest. Lin Long Tian then noticed a black cat with a patch of white fur on his head strolling through the forest, it came to a stop right in front of him and looked at him with disdain and dissappoinment in her eyes as she continued walking past him.
