Chapter 17: Little Outburst

Pain, the blistering burns on his body brought about pain shooting throughout Seth's body, this was the first time he had ever been subjected to such intense injuries from a battle

Throughout Seth's life, he had engaged in a lot of fights, but never had he been inflicted with such pain, even those grade 0 wolves hadn't been able to cause him such excruciating pain, before Seth could wallow anymore on the present condition of his body, he felt his instincts scream at him to move out of the way.

Pushing all thoughts of his pain out of his mind, Seth slammed his right hand on the ground and flipped into the air, narrowly dodging the brutal hammer slam on his previous position.

In that very brief moment in which Seth was airborne, a feeling of pleasure surpassed only by that of an orgasm washed over him, his blood pumped faster and his heart beating harder just like back when he had desperately fought those wolves, he could feel all five of his senses drastically sharpen and then like it was a dream, all these enhancements and feeling of euphoria disappeared like it was never there.

As Seth landed, he would have liked to think about what had just happened to him, but the giant iron fist and bloodthirsty sword approaching him from his left and right respectively demanded his full attention.

Putting his complete focus on the approaching attacks, Seth enhanced his body with his soul sense, he quickly moved to his left and threw a fist at the giant fist moving toward him.

Showing an amazing level of dexterity for someone with such huge weapons, the owner of the giant iron fist used the momentum of his run to dig his feet into the ground, then sent himself spinning over Seth, consequently dodging his punch.

Despite doing this, the man with iron fists wasn't done as he used the energy from his spinning momentum to shoot out a powerful punch at Seth as flew over him.

Seth could only watch his punch being dodged and then a qi powered punch head for him from above.

Seth's inexperience in battles at such a level was shown once again as he had failed to immediately prepare himself for another attack when his punch had been dodged, his body was still in motion from his failed punch and this left him completely unable to defend or dodge an attack.

A normal general stage cultivator or any lower level cultivator would have been doomed, but unfortunately for the hammer gang, Seth had a soul sense, and he had decided to use it to the full.

Pouring qi into his soul sense and enhancing his body, Seth was able to push his body's strength to a new high as he immediately canceled out his current movement with brute force from his body, an action hitch left two deep depressions in the ground.

Seth then immediately looked up at the approaching fist and used both his hands to grab onto the giant fist and then swing it along with its owner around and then release them at near point blank range at the sword wielding cultivator.

The sword wielder could not attack his fast approaching teammate, so did his best to brace himself for impact, the collision between the both of them sent them shooting through the air and crashing into the barrier surrounding them.

This almost impossible action of Seth had both the two other attackers falling back as they re-evaluated Seth's fighting prowess.

When the fight had started, the orange clad man had shot at his sword wielding teammate and Fahren had been prepared to immediately move to his rescue, but then he saw the orange clad man make a crude run and then throw a sloppy punch which was easily neutralized by his teammate.

The orange man fights like a newbie ranked cultivator, nothing like a man who had fought his way to the general level, and this surprised Fahren and his teammates.

"What the hell is going on, is he underestimating us?" Fahren thought and then quickly moved to attack when he saw the man being sent into the air.

He had expected a turn of events when he jumped up and swung his hammer down on him, but surprisingly nothing of that sort happened, his attack had hit and the man even got hit by a flame technique as he crashed into the ground.

Still not underestimating him, Fahren had quickly launched another heavy assault on the downed man and that was when everything started going wrong, the man dodged his hammer at the last minute and then was able to easily stop his teammate's prized energy conversion moves with his bare hands and then used his body as a weapon to slam another of his teammate with overwhelming brute force.

Fahren weary against Seth's sudden outburst of strength decided to play it safe and asked his teammates to fall back and regroup.

Seeing them fallback after his little outburst, Seth didn't pursue them, he just stood still and calmly observed them.

There was the leader who he already knew used the hammer and was an earth specialist, the next cultivator was a tall man with a bushy beard that wielded the long sword, and then moving on to the most annoying one, he was an average built man who wore a gauntlet on each of his hand which could both expand and contract.

"Those gauntlets should be magic tools," Seth thought and then moved on to the last member.

He was a skinny man with narrowed eyes that always kept the farthest distance from him, "he has a ridiculous amount of qi stored in his dantian, he's the one who hit me with the huge fire dragon" Seth thought and then decided to inspect himself.
