Chapter 44 Roaming Around And Killing Star Beasts
To be honest, even Nux was surprised by how quickly he killed the bear. He finally understood why skills were so important to a cultivator. With just 1 star and 2-star skills, his power increased so much.
Nux felt a little excited, he wanted to get stronger and stronger.
Thinking about it, he then started his search.

He continued killing beasts nonstop, some were sneak attacks, some were one on one fights, and sometimes, he was even sneaked attacked by a beast but Nux continued fighting and continued growing stronger at a frightening rate.
It is said that experience can help you learn what books cannot. As he continued using his skills, he could feel how frighteningly quick he was mastering them.
After his 23rd fight, his Steps Of Gale was already at the beginner stage and his other skills were at peak novice stage. He was also very close to the small achievement stage in his Nine Strikes Of Sword.
He did not stay at 1-star beasts either, he found that once he was a little experienced he didn't even need to use his skills to kill them so after killing around 14 1 star beasts, he shifted to 2-star beasts.

…
Right now, he was fighting a 2-star beast, Gale tiger, that sneaked attacked him. Well, one can't call it a fight. It was more like a training drill.
This gale tiger was just a bigger version of the first beast he killed. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Right now, Nux was just practising his fire-based skill, Fire Ball, on it, increasing his accuracy and lowering his MP cost. He wanted to increase his mastery of the skill to the beginner stage
However, things never go as one plan. The Gale Tiger's body was already covered with burns and black marks, it already knew that it wasn't this human's match and it had no intention of becoming his practice partner. It quickly turned around and ran away.
Or it tried to, when Nux noticed that it was trying to run away, he activated his Steps Of Gales and appeared in front of it before slashing its head.
"Haah… you could have lived longer if only you had decided to be obedient and become my training partner." He sighed before he stepped back. After killing so many beasts, although the blood didn't bother him that much, he still wasn't a fan of it and would not allow it to spray on his face if he could avoid it.

Nux stored its body in his inventory before he frowned; he noticed that the sneak attacks he was facing has increased a lot. He was planning to spend the night in the wilderness, but if it continued like this, he would tire himself out and would certainly die.
A thought appeared in his mind and he sniffed,
"Smnf Smnf"
His eyes lit up in realization as he nodded.
"So that's how it is…"
He was covered in blood, no, he was practically bathing in blood, especially his silver armour which was now red.
The beasts had strong senses, when they smelled the scent of blood, they would treat him as an injured or a dead person, no beast would leave that chance.
Nux quickly removed his armour, before washing dried blood from his face. He was thinking about saving water until he found a river or something but now it seemed that he had to use it. If he couldn't find any water sources by the end of the day, he would just leave the wilderness and come back tomorrow.
After washing his face and armour, Nux also changed his clothes.
He then walked around for a while and as expected, there were no sneak attacks anymore. Nux smiled and continued his killing but this time, he avoided getting blood on his clothes. For that, he had an ingenious idea of using his Water-based skill, the Water Shield to cover his body with a thin water shield that does not take much MP and it worked!
There was not a single drop of blood on his body!
This was much better than being covered in blood. He was not a brawny bloodthirsty man, he was a handsome refined man, being covered in blood did not suit him at all.
He even thought that this Water Shield skill was created just so a person could avoid the blood falling on his body.
If the creator of this technique heard his words, he would probably rise from the dead to hunt him down.

…
As Nux walked after killing another beast, he heard a sound.
'A river.'
Nux was pleasantly surprised; he quickly walked towards the direction where the sound came from.
"Did you see how I single-handedly killed that beast?"
"Yeah yeah, Alden, we know you are strong, why don't you just sit down and relax? It's still our first day here, we have to stay here for more than a month."
"Yes, now sit down and fill your water reserves"
"Hmph! You guys are no fun"
After a while, when he walked closer to the sound of the river, he heard some people talking. His steps quickened before he saw 4 people, 1 woman and 3 men sitting beside the river talking to each other.
He quickly hid behind a tree but before he could observe them with his [Eye Of Discerning], a series of notifications rang in his mind.
