"There are two levels to the Auraflare technique, the green flare and the purple flare. What you have currently has just barely reached the doorstep of the green flare level." Yaoyao explained from the side when she saw that Zhou Yuan had succeeded.

　　Zhou Yuan nodded. He looked at the faint pulsing green light at his fingertips and said, "The destructive power of this Auraflare technique is astonis.h.i.+ng indeed but there are some flaws. The Qi concentrating process is troublesome and it uses too much Genesis Qi."

　　If he had not activated the Dragon Breathing technique and sucked in a mouthful of Genesis Qi, he would not have succeeded in creating this tiny green flare no matter how long he spent.

　　With his current four channel strength, it took everything he had to create this tiny wisp of light. If it was to be used against an enemy, he would have to kill in a single strike or the light would automatically dissipate after some time.

　　"If only I could reach the Qi Nouris.h.i.+ng stage." Zhou Yuan sighed. Reaching the Qi Nouris.h.i.+ng stage was akin to entering the inner chambers from the main room. Once the Qi Dwelling was open, Genesis Qi could be stored in the body. This would be countless times better than his current pitiful state where he had to draw in strands of unpurified Genesis Qi from his surroundings every time he wanted to use it.

　　With the support of sufficient Genesis Qi in the body, Black tier Genesis techniques would be able to display their true power.

　　After sighing for a while, Zhou Yuan steadied his heart. After all, he had to take things one step at a time. What he needed to do now was to fully open his eight meridian channels, creating a better foundation for future cultivation.

　　"Alright then, it's time for me to go slaughter that b.a.s.t.a.r.d. A beast that dares to interfere with my training cannot be pardoned." Zhou Yuan stood up and called out to Yaoyao before his body shot forth, heading straight into the mountain forests.

　　He could not wait to try out the might of the Auraflare technique.

　　Once he entered the forest, Zhou Yuan rushed straight towards its depths. A long time later, he stood on a giant tree and sat down. He knew that the Flame Plate Rhino was extremely sensitive to presences and would likely discover him the moment he stepped into the deeper part of the forest. Thus, he only needed to wait for the rhino here.

　　Zhou Yuan shut his eyes. After about ten minutes, he felt the ground begin to tremble and his gaze looked towards the depths of the forest, only to see towering trees falling one after another as a fire-red figure madly charged over, thunderous rumbling sounds in its wake.

　　An over ten feet tall fire-red figure ultimately came to a stop in the clearing. Its scarlet eyes locked onto Zhou Yuan as grouchy snorting noises emerged from its mouth.

　　It was the Flame Plate Rhino.

　　The surface of its body seemed to be covered in fire-red armor, blazing hard armor that thoroughly protected it.

　　"You've come?" Zhou Yuan grinned a little as he looked down from above at the Flame Plate Rhino. No longer did he avoid it like before. Instead, his figure leaped into the air and landed on the ground

　　"Bring it on you b.a.s.t.a.r.d." Zhou Yuan extended a finger towards the creature and beckoned.

　　As if sensing Zhou Yuan's contempt, the madness in the Flame Plate Rhino's eyes immediately intensified. With a powerful stomp of its foot, the ground cracked open as its enormous figure transformed into fiery shadow that charged towards Zhou Yuan with terrifying momentum.

　　Meanwhile, the thick flame armor on its body glowed with scarlet light as if it was burning.

　　Even the air itself cackled under such force.

　　Even a seven channel pract.i.tioner had no choice but to avoid the sure-kill charge of a Flame Plate Rhino.

　　However, Zhou Yuan did not move nor showed no intentions of retreating. He merely lowered his gaze as Genesis Qi turned into whirlpools in his meridian channels, continuously compressing and refining.

　　Several breaths later, Zhou Yuan slowly extended his hand as a faint green aura slowly surfaced.

　　The aura pulsed indeterminately as Zhou Yuan's figure also dashed forward, colliding with the Flame Plate Rhino in the blink of an eye.
