Once he witnessed Happy's lightness skill and throwing knives, Thunderous Battle no longer treated him as a normal Gate Realm player. He knew that a normal Gate Realm player would not be able to do this. In fact, they would not even dare to enter the ancient tomb. With the Stone Giant's domineering combat abilities, it would only need three hits to kill a Gate Realm player. If they hit a vital spot, there was a high possibility that the player would die instantly!
"We usually need at least three people in a group to fight against the Stone Giant. We have to take turns tanking the monster. Each person can last for five minutes, and after two rounds, we'll be able to kill it.
"But if I'm alone, three minutes … will be too much. At most, I can last for two minutes before I need to find a place to use medicine and circulate my qi to heal myself."
"I'll try my best to work with you to attack the Stone Giant's joints and reduce its attack speed." Happy nodded slowly. His calm and practiced tone surprised Thunderous Battle, but it also made him feel strangely at ease. It was as if his companion was not in Gate Realm.
Thunderous Battle nodded.
"Alright!"
As he spoke, he brought out a broadsword that was as wide as a palm from his Universe Bag. The blade shone with a golden sheen, and it was thick and unadorned. There were two indistinct words on the hilt, and with just one glance, anyone could tell that it was made by a famous person.
"Square Palace Sword. Increase 200 attack, increase 50 weapon defense …" Thunderous Battle said proudly.
"You can only use masterpieces to fight against Stone Giants. Weapons that are slightly inferior will become blunt after you practice them for a long time, and you'll need to go back and repair them. You practiced … axes? Not bad, it's actually a masterpiece! " Before he finished speaking, he saw Happy bring out a shiny silver axe from his Universe Bag. He quirked an eyebrow and said in delight, "Axe techniques have the highest attack, and the success rate of blocking attacks is also the highest. I was just about to suggest that you practice axe techniques. It's great to work with people who know how to do things! I won't say anything else. I'm going! "
Once he finished speaking, he turned around and rushed to the Stone Giant at the furthest corner.
Happy held the axe with both hands. His elegant appearance and the axe made him look out of place.
He closed his eyes slightly and calmly sucked in a deep breath. Once he sensed the qi gushing out of his Dantian region and swiftly surging through his entire body, he opened his eyes swiftly and jumped.
Whoosh!
He activated Cloud Treading Steps at full speed and soon caught up to Thunderous Battle, who had stopped not too far away from him.
The Stone Giant's heavy body seemed to be filled with springs, and he could not feel his own weight at all. He moved like the wind, and with a few strides, he arrived at a spot that was six feet away from Thunderous Battle.
Hu!
A violent gust of wind howled, and the grayish-white fist arrived in front of Thunderous Battle with a great pressure.
Chi! Clang!!
Thunderous Battle moved like a phantom. He lowered his body, and at the same time he avoided the fist, he resolutely drew a white gash on the Stone Giant's waist with his Square Palace Sword.
It might seem as if Thunderous Battle had gained the upper hand, but in truth, the Stone Giant did not feel any damage or pain. He turned around as if nothing had happened, and as if he had eyes on his back, he punched Thunderous Battle's left arm.
Clang!
Thunderous Battle was sent flying several feet away along with his sword. An abnormal hint of red appeared on his face, making it clear that he had suffered internal injuries.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Striding forward, the ferocious-looking Stone Giant chased after him.
Right at this moment!
Clang!!
Amidst the loud noise, the stone giant's huge body shook slightly. Some stones were shoveled out of the crook of its leg. It turned around angrily and saw a young man holding a shiny axe in his hand.
It was Happy who had attracted the Stone Giant's hatred at the critical moment!
This was the good thing about the puppet traps. Even though their damage was astonishing, they had low intelligence. They never knew how to chase after their enemies while they had the upper hand. They only knew how to attack the intruder who was the closest to them, which was why many people used them as training targets later on.
"Good job!"
In the span of a breath, Thunderous Battle had already adjusted the injuries in his body. He moved with his sword, and while the Stone Giant was injured, his broadsword tore through the wind and shattered stones before he cut the Stone Giant's crook.
Even though he believed that his experience in dealing with Stone Giants was greater than Happy's, Thunderous Battle was not a stubborn person. When he saw that Happy's attack could stop the Stone Giant's quick counterattack, he naturally knew that he had to use it.
The Stone Giant did indeed show signs of stopping for a moment when it lifted its arm.
Even though it was only for a moment, it was enough for Happy to retreat safely and minimize the threat.
When Happy retreated, Thunderous Battle attracted the Stone Giant's hatred again!
He turned around swiftly.
Whoosh …
Thunderous Battle switched from offense to defense and began withstanding the Stone Giant's attacks head-on.
When he attacked, it was inevitable that he would reveal openings. Just then, Thunderous Battle had wanted to rely on his experience to avoid the Stone Giant's attacks a few more times so that he could extend his training time. He did not expect that he would nearly have to give up his training prematurely. Once Happy turned the tables around, he had no choice but to put on a defensive stance and train.
Happy did not say anything. He just returned to the back of the Stone Giant while Thunderous Battle followed the rules. His qi surged in his Dantian region, and he executed Five Continuous Axe Strikes at full strength. He chased after the Stone Giant's footsteps rhythmically and poured his firepower on it.
What Thunderous Battle practiced was clearly a high-tier sword technique.
Happy had seen it before. Kunlun Sect's Infinite Sword Technique did not have many defensive moves. If it were not for his masterpiece and his extraordinary defensive body fortification technique, he would have had a hard time against it.
Even so, Thunderous Battle had to retreat while he fought. If he could avoid the attacks, he would stall for time.
Happy's heart was as calm as still water. He reflected Thunderous Battle and the Stone Giant's actions in his mind. He relied on Five Continuous Axe Strikes and the Eight Trigrams Steps he extracted from his sword technique to catch up to the Stone Giant. His axe strikes never missed, and he tried his best to land on the Stone Giant's joints to reduce the pressure on Thunderous Battle.
As time passed …
The low-tier martial art, Five Continuous Axe Strikes, kept receiving EXP, and its level increased very quickly. Soon, it went from Level 80 to Level 84.
It only used less than three minutes, and it showed just how useful it was to train with a Blessed Realm NPC!
It was the same for Thunderous Battle.
Even though it was the first time he worked together with Happy, he felt that the pressure on him had been reduced by quite a lot. After a few minutes, the level of his Infinite Sword Technique also showed signs of improvement, and he was incredibly excited!
But …
Activating qi realms and body fortification techniques required a lot of qi.
When the fourth minute arrived, Thunderous Battle felt that his qi could no longer last. He called out to Happy and was prepared to jump out of the circle.
"Eat medicinal pellets and fight it off."
"…"
Thunderous Battle was stunned. Then, he rolled his eyes.
"Eat medicinal pellets and fight it off? You're crazy! One medicinal pellet costs one hundred taels of silver crumbs, and it can only last for two minutes at most. Which big brother did you go to the ancient tomb with? Why are you so extravagant?! "
"…"
Happy instantly came to a realization, and he cursed himself for being careless in his heart.
During the early stages of the game, it was not easy for players to earn money in World of Martial Arts. Very few people were willing to use large amounts of medicinal pellets to train. It had to be known that they could spend three thousand taels of silver crumbs in an hour, and they could only kill two Stone Giants in an hour. Each Stone Giant only had one vessel that was worth less than one thousand taels of silver crumbs.
To Thunderous Battle, if he circulated his qi cultivation technique a few more times, not only would his training speed increase, the vessels in the Stone Giants' bodies would also be a good way to earn money.
Even though Happy found it a pity, he did not go to the extent of personally fighting the Stone Giants. He brought the Stone Giants and ran. After all, with the level of Thunderous Battle's qi cultivation technique, he would only need a few minutes.
Soon, the howling wind generated by the Stone Giants' fists and the heavy sounds of axes could be heard in the ancient tomb.
