Triple Blade

Magical Beast Mountain Range outskirts.

A-Da and the other two huddled together, slowly approaching the Grey Wolf.

The three Death Soldiers were just ordinary people. If they separated, it would be easy for the Grey Wolf to pick them off one by one.

Therefore, Lin Ze chose to keep the three Death Soldiers together.

Moreover, his next tactic also required the three Death Soldiers to be together to perform better.

The Grey Wolf, licking its wounds under the shade of the trees, suddenly raised its head vigilantly, its pair of wolf eyes glowing eerily as it looked at the three.

But what made the Grey Wolf somewhat confused was that these three people in front of it seemed... very weak?

As a Grey Wolf that could survive to old age in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, its senses were quite sharp.

The Grey Wolf could still clearly sense whether its prey was dangerous.

But these three people in front of it truly felt like ordinary humans.

And ordinary humans who hadn't cultivated, even though it was now old and injured, could take them down with one claw each.

Under such circumstances, not only did these three humans not run away, but they were actually walking towards it?!

Before the Grey Wolf's insufficiently intelligent head could figure it out, Lin Ze had already led the two Death Soldiers to charge.

Seeing that its prey actually dared to charge, fierce light flashed in the Grey Wolf's eyes.

When the prey got close, the Grey Wolf suddenly sprang.

Opening its bloody maw, it bit directly at A-Da's neck, who was at the forefront.

The moment the Grey Wolf pounced, the prey, which seemed quite weak in its eyes, suddenly erupted with an impressive aura.

Immediately after, the large saber in its hand glowed with pale green Dou Qi, slashing at it with the momentum of splitting mountains and cleaving peaks!

"Awooo!"

One saber strike hit the Grey Wolf's head, causing it to let out a miserable howl.

Feigning weakness, then bursting forth instantly!

Wind Splitting Blade!

Seeing the attack succeed, Lin Ze didn't hesitate at all and immediately switched control.

A-San, who was beside A-Da, instantly stepped forward. The large saber in his hand also erupted with pale green Dou Qi.

Boom!

A sharp and fierce blade fiercely slashed at the Grey Wolf's forelimb.

Preventing the Grey Wolf from escaping.

Two consecutive hits caused the Grey Wolf to let out a piercing howl.

Its intact hind leg repeatedly kicked backward, trying to evade these three strange humans.

However, the third blade that followed almost completely severed its wolf head!

Blood splattered everywhere!

The scent of blood instantly filled this patch of forest.

Triple Wind Splitting Blade!

Successfully killed a First Order Magical Beast!

Lin Ze instructed A-Da and the others to quickly process the Grey Wolf, lest the pungent smell of blood attract other predators in the forest.

He, on the other hand, reviewed the previous battle.

Being able to instantly switch between Death Soldiers and use the Proxy State.

Allowed the full potential of the three Death Soldiers to be utilized.

The results were extraordinary!

It also validated Lin Ze's previous conjecture.

The Proxy Function could indeed be used in conjunction with the Control Function.

The combined effect was several times better than using them separately.

After all, even just using the Proxy State, one only possessed Lin Ze's strength, which was the strength of a Dou Practitioner.

But the Death Soldiers were not proficient in combat techniques and Dou Skills.

Meaning they had the realm but lacked combat power.

In this situation, it was fine for crushing opponents.

But when fighting peers, they would be somewhat stretched.

The Proxy State combined with Lin Ze's control perfectly compensated for this shortcoming.

Allowing the Death Soldiers controlled by Lin Ze to have both realm and combat power.

Moreover, due to the special nature of the Proxy State, Lin Ze could achieve maximum burst without worrying about Dou Qi depletion.

After all, when switching to the next Death Soldier, the Dou Qi projected would still be based on Lin Ze's main body's state.

After dealing with the Grey Wolves, Lin Ze checked on A-Da and the others.

He discovered that although it was only for an instant, due to being in an explosive state, the backlash they endured was significant and they needed a period of rest.

Speaking of which, the Wind Splitting Blade is quite a peculiar Dou Technique, one that focuses on explosive power.

If cultivated to great mastery, it could gather all of one's Dou Qi into a single strike!

However, even if someone truly cultivated it to great mastery, they would rarely do so.

The Wind Splitting Blade was practiced by someone in the original Iron Blood Mercenary Group.

But generally, in battle, they would only expend two to three tenths of their Dou Qi for an explosion.

After all, in the midst of combat, fully unleashing one's Dou Qi to become a One-Strike Hero would leave one completely defenseless afterward.

This was rarely done, even when hunting with the mercenary group.

Because if consecutive battles occurred, you might enjoy being a One-Strike Hero for a moment, but others would not.

A Dou Practitioner without Dou Qi would be an absolute burden during a hunt, requiring others to divert their attention to protect them.

But Lin Ze's Death Soldiers had no such worries.

Their Dou Qi was borrowed in the first place, so it was good if it could be completely used up.

Lin Ze continuously jumped between the Death Soldiers, using their bodies to unleash Dou Techniques and fight against the demonic beasts and wild beasts.

During this process, Lin Ze's mastery of Dou Techniques became increasingly proficient.

After all, it was honed through actual combat!

Throughout this day, Lin Ze continuously practiced Dou Techniques, relying on the effect of the Proxy State where the consumed Dou Qi would not affect his main body.

Wind Splitting Blade, Boom Fist, Forest Piercing Movement Technique.

By constantly switching between the ten Death Soldiers.

The amount Lin Ze practiced these Dou Techniques was equivalent to several days of arduous training for an ordinary person without elixirs to restore Dou Qi!

After all, truly unleashing Dou Techniques consumed Dou Qi.

And restoring Dou Qi was not something that could be achieved in just a few minutes.

By the end of the day, Lin Ze felt that his mastery of Dou Techniques had greatly improved.

The two squads responsible for hunting engaged in actual combat, seeking instant bursts of power and decisive finishes.

A-Er and the others who stayed by Lin Ze's side could maintain the Proxy State for a longer time without fighting, allowing them to better practice Dou Techniques.

Switching back and forth between actual combat and normal practice, Lin Ze felt his Wind Splitting Blade was close to mastery.

In the room, Lin Ze opened his eyes, his face full of exhaustion.

Although this feeling of wantonly expending Dou Qi was indeed very satisfying.

It also placed a considerable burden on his spirit.

Especially since Lin Ze was multitasking, controlling the Death Soldiers to practice Dou Techniques and fight while maintaining a shallow level of cultivation for his main body.

This was the first time he had tried this, and Lin Ze felt a bit lightheaded.

"It seems I might have overdone it, but perhaps this repeated tempering can strengthen my Soul Perception?"

Lin Ze thought with a bit of gallows humor.

Although his Dou Qi Attribute prevented him from becoming an Alchemist.

Soul Perception was still a very useful means of perception, even if not used for alchemy.

Moreover, he would have more Death Soldiers later. Even if each Death Soldier only performed basic command and control, it would require a considerable degree of Soul Perception.

Therefore, it was imperative to train his Soul Perception.

Whether active or passive, this process was unavoidable.

Since that was the case, he might as well be proactive.

He would slowly adapt while the number of Death Soldiers was still relatively small.
