Infinite Paths: The Raging Phoenix

Chapter 192: War (34)

Both enemies charged toward Rain at the same time, but he wasn't hesitant in facing them. After touching the ground, he covered his arms in hardened earth and then charged at them.

Rain and the two enemies began to punch each other with all their might. Even though they had the numerical advantage, the enemies didn't lay a single finger on Rain because his punches pushed them backward with every hit.

Once again, the rain stopped falling in a single area on the battlefield, thanks to the power of their attacks. Still, at the same time, the enemies were starting to grunt in pain since their fingers were breaking, and they didn't have time to heal them.

Eventually, the damage piled up and made the enemies take a single step backward.

Rain used that chance to punch them with all his might, and while they blocked his attack, the earth surrounding his fists turned into sand and then hit the eyes of the enemies... They began to cough and close their eyes out of reflex, and thanks to that, Rain used the chance to kick one in the head with another flying kick, and then he punched the area below the ear of the other.

When he fell unconscious, Rain pierced his stomach with his right hand.

An unknown skill leveled up.

The enemy's attempt to block the attack was futile, as Rain's strike opened a hole in their guard, an opportunity he seized without hesitation.

Exploiting the gap in the enemy's defenses, Rain's fist surged forward, propelled by his unwavering resolve. His fist struck the enemy's stomach with an explosive burst of power, the impact resonating with a bone-shaking force. The force of the blow was immense, and it felt as if time itself slowed down at that moment.

As Rain's fist made contact, the enemy's body reacted to the devastating force, the impact sending shockwaves through their form. The attack penetrated a significant portion of the enemy's abdomen, causing a visceral shockwave that rippled through their body. With a guttural cry, the enemy was launched backward, propelled by the sheer force of Rain's strike.

The sound of the impact echoed through the air, mingling with the rain and the howling wind. The enemy hurtled through the rain-soaked battlefield, their body carried by the momentum of Rain's attack. They tumbled and rolled through the mud, their movements finally coming to a halt as they skidded to a stop.

The Apprentice's Path received 100 experience points.

Rain wondered why three paths gained experience instead of a skill first. Still, that didn't matter now. His attack silenced the area of the battlefield since it created a blast of wind that spread around in an area and pushed away the particles of rain. Many enemies looked at Rain and recognized him as a threat, and he welcomed that.

Rain also charged toward the enemies, and he didn't try to defend himself. It was time to test his endurance... The first enemy hit Rain first, but he ignored that and followed with his own attacks... His punch hit the enemy in the chest and sent the guy flying in the distance while a powerful blast of wind pushed the rain away yet again.

The second attacked with one hand and then used the other to block Rain's punch. Still, the exchange ended up in the same way, perhaps even worse, considering that the arm of that guy was completely destroyed upon the impact. Things were about to reach the final phase...
