"According to the system's identification, this battle skill already belongs to the host and can be recycled. The [E] and [D] tier systems can recycle Yellow Tier Dou Techniques, while the [C] and [B] tier systems can recycle Black-tier Dou Techniques. Does the host wish to recycle it?" "How many points can I get from recycling?" "Points correspond to the system tier based on the battle skill grade. For a Profound Tier Intermediate Dou Technique, recycling yields 400 points corresponding to the [C] tier system!" "Great, I'll recu-wait, hold on, after I recycle it..." "Recycled Profound Tier Intermediate Dou Technique [Dragon Subduing Whip], obtained 400 points!" "Damn it, that fast. Does that mean if I buy it back, it's equivalent to me having learned this battle skill?" "Yes! Does the host wish to purchase the Profound Tier Intermediate Dou Technique [Dragon Subduing Whip]?" "Buy!" "The host does not have enough points. Please earn enough points and try again!" "Huh? That's not right. Didn't I just sell you a battle skill? Now that I'm buying it back, why am I suddenly short on points?" Nalan Chaoge felt deeply depressed, and a bad premonition gradually welled up in his heart. "For the host to purchase a recycled item, double the points must be paid!" "I knew it!" Nalan Chaoge slapped his own forehead in frustration. How could he have possibly forgotten about this catch? Where in the world was there such a free lunch! If he could just buy it back without practicing and instantly master a battle skill like this, it was just that this system was truly vicious; with one in and one out, the price actually doubled. He looked at his stats with frustration. Name: Nalan Chaoge Gender: Male System Tier: [C] Tier Dou Po Cultivation Level: One-star Dou Shi System Alchemy: Third-grade Exchanged Ninjutsu: [Clone Technique] [Transformation Jutsu] [Eight Inner Gates] [Rasengan] [Shadow Clone] Summoned Tailed Beast: None Impure World Reincarnation: None Points Available: 600 With only 600 points, no wonder he couldn't buy it. It seemed he must use his points sparingly; the further along he went, the harder it would be to earn points. Glancing at the only remaining third-grade medicinal herbs in his Na Ring, Nalan Chaoge gritted his teeth and recycled them anyway, then bought back the [Dragon Subduing Whip] he had just recycled. Recycling the medicinal herbs yielded 400 points, leaving Nalan Chaoge with only 200 points once again. Points! How was he supposed to farm the system again! However, looking at the information of the Dragon Subduing Whip in his mind, spending those 800 points didn't feel unjust. In the silent forest, a few people walked quietly, their vigilant gazes constantly sweeping across the surrounding trees and their minds focused entirely on the situation around them. Walking in the Magical Beast Forest, even on the very outskirts, there was a possibility of magical beasts darting out at any moment. Although these magical beasts were all of the lowest tier, if one wasn't careful, it was still possible to capsize in a drainage ditch. Nalan Yanran, Yun Feng, and Nalan Chaoge all held their weapons in their hands, ready to deal with sudden situations at any time. They had already been walking in the Magical Beast Forest for ten days. These ten days allowed the few of them to transition from clueless, green novices to experiencing brief tempering. They went from being flustered when dealing with magical beasts for the first time to now being able to convey information with just a single look or action. They could also identify signals representing danger and safety from each other's eyes. Even Ge Ye, who was a Seven-Star Great Dou Master, didn't dare to be careless and trailed closely behind the group. Screech! Just as everyone was concentrating and on guard, a cry came from the sky. "Everyone be careful, it's a first-order magical beast Blue Eagle!" Nalan Yanran called out softly, and Nalan Chaoge and Yun Feng behind her immediately entered combat states. Only, this time the enemy was somewhat different; this magical beast was actually not launching a land attack. Instead, it was up in the sky. "Blue Eagle? Can't this kind of magical beast be tamed? Once successfully tamed, they can soar through the blue skies!" Nalan Chaoge had heard Ge Ye say that humans could only use Dou Qi Wings to leave the ground for battle once they reached the Dou Ling level. However, besides the Dou Ling level, there were two other methods to take flight. One was to tame a flying magical beast, such as the first-order magical beast Blue Eagle, which was one of them. Another method was a flying Dou technique; as long as one mastered a flying Dou technique, flying was also possible. The others were all quite difficult, and only taming a Blue Eagle could be considered simple. "Don't even think about taming a Blue Eagle. Although this kind of magical beast can be tamed, it also requires spending a great deal of time and energy. Moreover, this magical beast holds grudges; once it locks onto you, it's a fight to the death!" Nalan Yanran said cautiously. "I have a plan. Sis, I'll go knock it down in a moment, don't move!" After saying this, Nalan Chaoge darted forward and climbed up a towering tree. Having climbed the tree, Nalan Chaoge let out a whistle. Nalan Yanran quickly retreated out of the combat range. Meanwhile, Yun Feng gripped the longsword in his hand, let out a loud shout, and a Fractal Energy Sword Body shot fiercely toward the Blue Eagle in the sky. Because the distance was too great, that energy sword automatically dissipated before it even touched the Blue Eagle. Precisely because of Yun Feng's attack, the Blue Eagle seized the opportunity, let out a sharp screech, and dove straight toward Yun Feng. The reason the Blue Eagle was called a Blue Eagle was not because it was blue, but because only its claws and beak were blue. Those blue claws were incomparably hard and could easily shatter the defense of a Dou Zhe. Yet this Blue Eagle also had a weakness: after diving down, if a single strike failed, its flight back up into the sky became its greatest vulnerability. Although the Blue Eagle dove down at extreme speed, the Misty Cloud Sect's Flying Catkins Movement Technique was no pushover. Waiting until the Blue Eagle reached right above his head, Yun Feng executed a feint and easily dodged past it. Missing its first strike, the Blue Eagle's sharp claws directly raked across a nearby large tree, instantly sending bark flying as a chunk of the tree trunk was torn away by it. Beating its wings against the ground, it kicked up massive gusts of wind, and pushing off the tree with its claws, it prepared to charge back up. Just as the Blue Eagle had just left the ground, Nalan Chaoge leaped down from the tree. His entire body happened to jump right above the Blue Eagle, while the whip in his hand seized the opportunity and lashed outward toward the Blue Eagle below. Flying Dragon in the Sky! That referred to this exact moment. There were six kinds of shifting maneuvers in every direction; no matter which direction the enemy fled, as long as they were below him, Nalan Chaoge had absolute certainty to whip the enemy dizzy in a single strike! Sensing Nalan Chaoge's surprise attack, the Blue Eagle tilted its entire body and actually attempted to circle around from the side. A cold smirk crossed the corner of Nalan Chaoge's mouth. A mere first-order magical beast-if he let you run, would that do justice to his 800 points! Flicking his wrist, the three-zhang-long Living Dragon Tendon instantly grew by another zhang, snapping toward the Blue Eagle with lightning speed like a winding, venomous serpent. Yet that Blue Eagle was indeed formidable, managing to forcefully flip its body over in mid-air once again. Nalan Chaoge's body was rapidly descending without anything to leverage, and it looked like the whipped-out tip was about to miss completely. Nalan Chaoge flicked his wrist, and the long whip actually came alive, making an eerie bend in mid-air. Crack! It struck dead-center on the back of the Blue Eagle's head. The instant the whip tip made contact with the Blue Eagle, the Dou Qi within Nalan Chaoge's body surged directly into the beast. Thud! The Blue Eagle in mid-air plummeted straight down.
