Xianxia: Why am I here?

54  Human encounter

Deep in the mountains, one figure was sitting on top of a huge cow, and other than the movement of the cow, the entire forest was silent. Wang was busy letting internal energy circulate around his body to elevate some of the achings by his muscles. The only thing that could be seen were the prints left by the cow where it was stepping in the snow. "It seems that my decision to leave this place was indeed correct! Finding food here is no longer going to be easy." As he looked at the snow below the cow's legs he sighed.

He had been too dedicated to the practice and forgot about this and when he was looking for a meal yesterday he ended up running into some man with the same clothes as the spearman whose corpse was thrown in the lake. The man was seemingly escaping from something but when he saw the spear in his hand he attacked him instantly.

In the end, he used the spear to nail the man on a tree after some intense fight, then left with all the belongings from which he managed to obtain some valuable resources that have been used by half. Now that he had sorted out his issues he already had a feeling that this place was dangerous and thus made up his mind to leave this place and go for another area.

Sitting on top of the cow, he could see the damp and gloomy ground even the snow seemed to completely cover the hooves of the cow as it moved through the forest. Even then he still seemed cautious as he remembered the man he met yesterday recognizing the spear he was holding. He ended up covering it with some tiger hide as he traveled through the forest on top of the cow, which seemed to act as though the cold weather was nothing, but considering its current body size it was not a big deal.

Even Wang did not feel the cold in this snow, as he had focused on the improvement of his physique and at the moment, could be said to just count among those at the entry-level. Even without perception of the area around him, his instincts were spot on in danger detection.

But he discovered something was wrong with the forest due to how silent it actually was, no beasts could be seen too, this abnormal development made him very uneasy. The place was further in the forest so he had the right to be concerned about the development of things. It could be said that since the situation yesterday, he felt that things were far from being simple. He could only sigh with some worry hidden deep within his eyes, as he sensed that this forest was not okay.

"Even after traveling for more than six hours I have yet to set my eyes on the smallest of animals in the forest, the last time moving around I could see some squirrels almost every twenty minutes. I should be careful in this place, otherwise, it might end up causing some trouble here." As he moved his muscles seemed to be slowly recovering from the aching and at the same time, he felt slightly stronger compared to before.

"Sigh! Even though you have benefited more than me in this adventure in the forest, it seems that this time I have a breakthrough to the level of grandmaster. This world is very scary, and other things should not be put before my strength, otherwise, life would become more restricted in the end." The cow seemed to be dissatisfied with what Wang said, and he could have sworn he saw it rolling its eyes at him. But he felt what he had just said was somehow shameless after all his strength is indeed very strong.

But his jokes did not last long as he heard the rustling in the distance bushes, and some dog with a wolf-like head observed Wang as he did the same, but he could even see that dark pupil was looking at him without fear. The calm look in the wolf's eyes already allowed him to sense some sort of danger approaching him.

Seeing how the small wolf not even half the cow he was sitting on looked in his direction with some kind of intelligence in its eyes, he was slightly interested. "Well, this is indeed not new, it seems that this forest has more than meets the eye" He could feel that something was wrong with the dog and as it was observing him he had already disappeared from the top of the cow's back with his spear.

 Feeling that something was wrong, the dog or wolf, let out a huge roar, he did not indeed know how to address it as it seemed like both. But this did not stop Wang's spear from moving towards it, as it seemed to be very fast, even the wolf could only act instinctively when it faced danger. In an instant, its head was struck continuously completely destroying it as it failed to escape despite sensing danger, and the reason was that the speed of the spear was too fast.

"Dead!"As Wang put back his spear he narrowed his eyes as he had sensed that this dog was somehow dangerous, but what he failed to know was that 3 miles away some man with black robes was screaming, and his face pale. This wolf was his and he had fused his blood essence through some secret technique turning the wolf into his treasure hunter. In the group, some men seemed to be standing beside him, and yet none of them stepped forward to help him.

Shiu!

Wang thrust his spear again and it seemed like he was immersed in that feeling just now that forced him to attack, and at the same time, he could not help but become happy, as he had already taken that step with his spear even though it was different from his original goal, he was excited. Artistic conception had been achieved and he could use it without consuming internal energy, not only that rather the artistic conception of speed had been realized allowing his spear attack to almost become a blur when he attacked.

At this moment he could be said to have some confidence, especially with his physique and speed he could have some ability to save himself. In that case, he was going to spend his time on the other methods he was versed in and breakthrough grandmaster when each achieved artistic conception, he had already touched it and had an idea about how to artistic conception felt. But this was just the start and once in the grandmaster realm, one has to work hard in improving artistic conception to perfection before they could breakthrough into another higher realm again, by focusing on something else.

He was also forced to collect the body of the wolf before leaving he made sure to get rid of the evidence of him being there, he did not know if the wolf had some background and in this forest, it might be troublesome to move with it and thus he threw the body into some bushes. Changing directions several times he went along with the river in the end before finding a place to stay only when he confirmed that the animals in this region were normal. With this being the case he resumed his busy schedule of playing with the spear and Fist techniques.

In this cold season, he did not seem to be bothered by staying near the river as he was more inclined to gain some insight into the Sea Calming Manual. With the continuous attacks of the spears, it become difficult to see it but he was dissatisfied as time passed. The artistic conception of speed might indeed be strong but it seems to be lacking something and he already seemed to know this and thus stopped using it for practice, as he wanted to attain an artistic conception of the spear itself but since it was not happening that way, his speed of attacking slowed down to see if the tip of the spear could be capable of destroying a snowflake.

This was the practice routine he had chosen for himself that seemed to entail learning to control the spear's power to a higher detail, but the first step was not that of an issue, and it seemed like he had to spend most of the time on the spear to achieve this result faster. The rest of the time is to be given to the Fist techniques that are usually practiced together. The sea calming manual, on the other hand, he could only recite some words from it trying to gain something from it almost all the time.

"In the distance when the man that had been wailing suddenly regained some sanity, the first thing he did was to yell. "Damn! Bastard! When I found out who killed my treasure-seeking dog, You shall pay the price." Wang was very far off to realize that he had just made some enemy several miles ahead.
