The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth
Chapter 171 Fight, Get Injured, Heal, RepeatOn the vast interior of the fourth floor, a silver-haired boy could be seen dancing from one place to another, surrounded by many opponents. He was moving as a phantom, appearing for a second at one place before disappearing and reappearing at the other place.
There were three chains following him like snakes, catching the opponents in a place that made it easier for Rishi to target them. It took him many strikes to take down even one of them; they were all at level 7 Advanced Stage. They were a little different from the ones he faced on the first three floors; they were taller, had two long horns, and their eyes were shining in a blue glow.
It took a while for Rishi to take care of them all, but despite this, he was very thrilled as his skill, 'Chains of Reaper', had leveled up between the fight. Now he could summon three chains, which made them even harder to dodge than before.
He smirked as he shook away the blood from his sword before putting it back on its sheath; he was enjoying this fight to the fullest. He tried to use his new skills and strength to perform many hard maneuvers. At one moment, he used his chain to make an opponent fall before taking care of him.

He entered the blue portal and appeared on the fifth floor. He had just come out of the portal when he saw three attacks coming at him from different directions. He jumped and used 'Chains of Reaper' in the air to summon a chain, which he used to move away by swinging like Spider-Man.
"That's quite a feat," he said as he looked at his opponents. When he scanned the area around, he counted that there were a total of 15 opponents, 5 less than on the previous floor, but their level was higher than the previous opponent. They were using a sharp dagger made up of bones as a tool, and they were standing in three groups of five people each.
Interesting," said Rishi as his lips curled up into a smile before he jumped at them using 'Phantom Steps. He used the 'Chains of Reaper' skill and summoned three chains from three sides of a group, but to his surprise, two were able to dodge.
Rishi used the 'Sword Dash' plus 'Quick Draw' combo and started attacking them. It took him two seconds, but he was able to eliminate both. The others tried to stop him, but he was just too quick while dashing from one place to another.
As his mastery of 'Sword Dash' increased, he was also able to change the place where he would appear; now, instead of appearing at the back of the opponent, he often changed his position to become more unpredictable.
The fight continued, and the more he fought, the more skilled he got at using his new skill, 'Chains of Reaper.' He created different patterns in his attacks; some were very good when fighting multiple opponents, while others were better when facing off against a single opponent.
He even fought recklessly by only using 'Chains of Reaper' and 'Quick Draw' to defeat his opponents. This resulted in him getting a lot of injuries, but his passive skill activated, and started healing his wounds. He laughed and used his new active skill, 'Regeneration,' to heal all his wounds at such speed that the changes were visible.
These new skills made him fearless and allowed him to take some risks to improve very fast. There was no time limit in this round, so Rishi focused on improving and getting used to fighting with his new skills.
He fought, got injured, recovered, and fought again till he was alone on the floor; even when covered in multiple wounds, he was laughing as he had improved a lot. Several training sessions could not be compared to his improvement today; his usage of every skill was sharpened today.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe sat on the tower of corpses before using the 'Life Force Magnet' skill to recover his life force. He decided to meditate while resting and remember all the new things he had learned in this battle.
He took his time as he knew the battle above would only be tougher; he was fully confident in clearing this trial, but he was not here for the sake of only clearing the trial; he wanted to learn as much as he could.
This was his first experience of the battle after receiving the blessing, and he was still getting used to his new strength. In this fight, he found many mistakes in his fighting style. He used 'Extreme Focus' to note them all before training for a while to perfect them.
When he was confident and sure that he couldn't improve anymore, he entered the purple portal and went to the next floor, the sixth floor. Greeting him were ten opponents, but instead of sighing with relief, he got even more cautious as he could sense their strength; they were all at advanced stage level 9 like him.
"This looks too much work," he said before licking his lips and grinning, "but it will be fun." The opponents in front of him were carrying a sword in one hand and a spear in another; there were three small spears hanging on the backs of each opponent.
They were more robust and taller than the previous of their kind; their skin was ash-like, and their eyes were shining in a larger blue flame. They launched their projectiles at Rishi, giving him no chance to dodge.
Rishi summoned two chains to form a tight rope a little above his height in front of him and jumped in the air. He used the chains as a trampoline to give himself even more height and dodged their attacks.
In the air, he summoned one more chain and stood in the air holding it. He scanned the area and understood their fighting style; his analysis was just complete when he saw a second wave of spears flying at him.
"Some people never understand," he said as he let go of the chain and jumped at his opponents. The corpse demons had not thought that his next move would be like this, but they got ready to face him.
