Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

Under a clear blue sky, the enormous sun cast its light and heat overhead.

On the hillside formed from the remains of the bixie, Wang Yi dug a pit and used it as a bathtub.

Then, he poured in clean water, put on sunglasses to block out the sunlight, and immersed himself in it.

This is the state Wang Yi has been in since his four secondary clones entered the Star Vortex Passage and headed towards the human world.

Four days (human world time) passed in the blink of an eye.

Even with Wang Yi's powerful physique, his skin was inevitably wrinkled from being soaked in water.

But there was no other way; these were just insignificant costs in order to quickly restore the lost soul.

This time, however, Wang Yi lost a full 60% of his soul, and four days was far from enough.

Fortunately, the period of weakness has passed safely, and Wang Yi's combat strength has recovered somewhat.

It should be able to contend with super-level magical beasts without any problems.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Above, the white crane's corpse fell from the sky. Wang Yi, in the bathtub, narrowed his eyes slightly, then snapped his fingers lightly.

Vines grew and extended on the ground, weaving a large, emerald-green net that caught the white crane, preventing it from being smashed to pieces.

After all, it wouldn't be good to eat it then.

Before long, Ren Tianque, in his merman form, flapped his azure wings and flew down from the sky at great speed.

Laughter could be heard before the person even arrived.

"Ha ha ha ha······"

Upon landing, the seawater on Ren Tianque's face rippled, forming a joyful expression.

"Brother Wang, I did it!"

"You've succeeded? What have you succeeded at?"

Wang Yi lifted her sunglasses and gave Ren Tianque a questioning look.

"Soul combat technique!" Ren Tianque exclaimed excitedly.

Wang Yi then noticed that these high-level white cranes had no wounds on their bodies, and their vitality was still surging, indicating that they had no external injuries.

It turned out that Ren Tianque killed him using his soul combat technique.

"Which Soul Tactic? The Military Flag or the Owl's Cry?"

Wang Yi was overjoyed. Ren Tianque was indeed a top genius. In just four days, he had mastered the basic application of the Soul Combat Technique. Such learning ability was truly rare.

Then Wang Yi began to think about how long it had taken him to initially master the Soul Combat Technique.

It seems that the military flag was completed in less than a day, while the owl's cry took more than three days.

That's fine.

Wang Yi pushed up her sunglasses and continued to lazily soak in the bath.

"Brother Ren, you've only just mastered the Military Flag Battle Technique, so you probably can't yet handle strong super-tier magical beasts. You still need to improve. Also, now that you've grasped the basics of the Military Flag Battle Technique, you can try the Owl Cry Battle Technique."

This is how Xu Jun taught Wang Yi the Soul Battle Technique.

First, use the military flag tactics as a foundation. After gaining a basic understanding of them, then study the owl's cry tactics.

Compared to the military flag tactics, which have a relatively moderate attack and defense, the owl's cry tactics are a purely offensive soul-based tactics.

Moreover, its attack power is extremely strong.

Wang Yi found it hard to imagine that Uncle Xu, who was usually kind and amiable and only drank tea and read newspapers, had created a soul battle technique that was actually an attack method that would rather die than bend.

However, they're old Night's Watch soldiers, so it's understandable.

Of the two soul combat methods, the military flag combat method is the most widely circulated among the military's extraordinary members because although the military flag combat method is moderate, it can be used for both offense and defense, and its advantage lies in being easier to learn.

In comparison, the Owl's Roar Battle Strategy is indeed much more difficult. Even many extraordinary individuals who have barely mastered it find it difficult to become proficient, and it is not as easy to use as the Military Flag Battle Strategy. Therefore, it is not widely known.

After all, power is only one aspect; what matters most is finding something that suits you.

"Alright, next I will study some owl-singing tactics. If they are too difficult, I will focus my energy on military flag tactics. After all, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."

As Ren Tianque spoke, he picked two white cranes from the vines, plucked their feathers, gutted them, and started a fire to roast them.

Based on Ren Tianque's five years of experience in hunting beasts, the White Feather Crane tastes very good; with just a few seasonings, it will whet one's appetite.

Although there is still some food in Wang Yi's virtual world, he can't live off his savings forever.

So Ren Tianque resumed his hunting life.

As Ren Tianque skewered the half-human-sized white crane and roasted it, he didn't forget to ask Wang Yi, "Are you really not going to eat? I've noticed you haven't eaten anything these past few days."

"Need not."

Wang Yi gave a lazy reply.

In fact, after Wang Yi saw the bixie, he kept thinking, with such a huge body, wouldn't it have to eat the flesh and blood of half a mountain in one meal?

Moreover, Bixie is a shut-in who doesn't move for years after lying down. You can't expect a large number of monsters to line up and feed into Bixie's mouth every day, can you?

So the result is easy to guess: this super-tier Bixi most likely relies solely on magic to maintain its life force.

As time went on, Wang Yi found more corroborating evidence.

Magic can indeed sustain life.

However, this requires a physical body that is strong enough and a vitality that is vigorous enough.

Super-level magical beasts might just be the threshold.

As far as Wang Yi knew, the high-level magical beasts in the interdimensional passage also needed to be hunted frequently.

Even in its normal state, Wang Yi's body is not much weaker than that of a super-level magical beast. However, in the human world, Wang Yi still needs food to survive.

Wang Yi guessed that perhaps it was because the concentration of magic in the human world was too low to support his body.

But in the magical world, magic is the one thing that's never lacking.

To verify his hypothesis, Wang Yi decided to try out the survival methods of the super-tier Bichi.

Let's see if he becomes weak from not eating for a long time.

Four days have passed now, and apart from feeling a little hungry and not quite used to the empty stomach, I haven't experienced any physical problems.

However, for normal humans, going four days without food is not a big problem as long as they have water to drink.

Therefore, Wang Yi needs to starve himself for a few more days to confirm this.

Although this is just a minor point of knowledge, Wang Yi has always been willing to put in the effort to study it.

Just as Ren Tianque was busy preparing the food, the ground trembled slightly, and the two of them immediately got up and looked over.

Two small, moving mountain peaks appeared in the distance, trailing billows of dust as they approached.

The road was littered with collapsed rocks, leaving two messy trails.

Wang Yi and Ren Tianque hurriedly flew into the sky to observe with their eagle-eye technique.

Upon closer inspection, the two realized that it was not a small mountain peak, but two bixie with heads resembling dragons and turtles, and ferocious jaws.

Although it was smaller than the one under Wang Yi and Ren Tianque, it should still be a super-level magical beast without a doubt.

"Damn it, are they giving away super-tier magical beasts for free here? Are they selling them wholesale?"

Just how densely packed are the super-level magical beasts in this magical world?

Wang Yi's expression was somewhat gloomy. It was only with great difficulty that the two of them managed to kill one Bixi, and now two more super-level Bixi had appeared. Things were getting complicated.

Moreover, Wang Yi's soul has not recovered much yet, so it can be said that he has lost his strongest means of dealing with super-level magical beasts.

Ren Tianque alone certainly couldn't hold out.
