“Secret Technique, Oogushi (Great Serpent Fire)!” Chen Feng’s heart was pounding so hard it felt ready to burst from his chest! The Oogushi was something Chen Feng had longed for.

It involved enveloping oneself in flames capable of incinerating anything within a three-meter radius into ash. Such a monstrously powerful skill, if unleashed, could likely consign even a peak level nine Fighter to eternal flames!

He calmed the tension in his heart, meticulously tracing the energy circulation path of the Oogushi in his mind. One breath breaks one vortex!

Unexpectedly… the vortex could disperse! The release of Oogushi actually required the constantly spinning vortex at his Dantian to suddenly scatter around his body, relying on immense **cultivation and mental control to instantaneously release the fire element contained within the vortex!

What a domineering fist technique! Chen Feng caressed his wildly beating heart and let out a long breath.

The emergence of Oogushi gave him a completely new understanding of the Kusanagi Style. If Aragami (Savage Bite) was the foundational movement of the Kusanagi Style, then Oogushi could be considered the ultimate secret art.

It was analogous to the Arhat Fist being the basis of Shaolin martial arts; you might have already mastered it flawlessly, but once you learned the Kasaya Demon-Subduing Skill, your perception of the Arhat Fist would ascend to an entirely different stratum. It was like the person who only knew how to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes—after learning the secrets of a Manchu-Han Imperial Feast, their scrambled eggs would taste completely different from before!

Don't speak of how mastering the basics can lead to expertise; can mastering bicycle riding enable one to fly an airplane? If Chen Feng were to execute Aragami now, its power would have increased by more than twenty times!

An increase in cultivation level was certainly one factor, but a deeper understanding of the Kusanagi Style was an equally crucial component. “Bang!” Chen Feng toyed with the flame that materialized at his fingertips, his emotions stirring profoundly!

This was a crimson flame, entirely different from the previous yellow flames. If the previous fire was comparable to a candle flame, the current red flame was a raging inferno!

This was the true Kusanagi Flame! The method of unleashing Oogushi contained the precise technique for transforming the vortex into the Kusanagi Flame!

Wouldn't it be disastrous if the vortex shattered without unleashing its full potential? “Hey!

Boss, you’re trying to commit murder!” Xiao Hu suddenly shouted. Chen Feng glanced down and managed an awkward smile.

In his absorption while studying the power of the red flame, he had unconsciously released a scorching heat wave from his entire body, leaving a patch of scorched fur on Xiao Hu’s back. With the skill of Oogushi, Chen Feng was filled with confidence as he leaped off Xiao Hu and walked toward the White Wolf King.

Although his current cultivation level prevented him from unleashing the full might of Oogushi, Chen Feng was confident it was more than enough to deal with Level Four Battle Beasts! The Ice Rock Demonic Wolf felt a deep dread seeing the crimson flame emerge from Chen Feng’s fingertips, yet it could not disobey the White Wolf King’s command.

Waves of fearless creatures charged forward. Chen Feng had Xiao Hu hide behind him, and he began executing Aragami strikes one by one, slowly.

With every punch, a bolt of crimson flame shot forth. As soon as the red flame touched an Ice Rock Battle Wolf, the creature was instantly reduced to ash.

Those within the defensive perimeter only saw continuous streams of red flame erupting, followed by a steady sequence of “pop-pop” sounds. The flames ignited on the Ice Rock Battle Wolves dyed half the sky red, and the surrounding trees also caught fire under the heat of the conflagration.

If it weren't for Alfred’s Water Shield, the group would likely have been unrecognizable from the burning. Alfred’s eyes were wide with terror.

Releasing fire elements on such a vast scale—was this Kusanagi a Mage or a Fighter? Fire-attributed Fighters could certainly conjure flames, but those flames were condensed from Battle Qi.

Releasing them across such a wide area would exhaust even a Dou Zun to death! Moreover, Battle Qi condensed into fire that could be projected beyond three meters—what level of power did this require?

Alfred, despite his extensive experience, felt a sense of powerlessness viewing this scene, trembling with astonishment. If Kusanagi were a Mage, he could indeed unleash this magnitude of fire element, but how could the purity of fire elements gathered from heaven and earth using mental power compare to this crimson flame?

What was the background of this Kusanagi? How deep was his cultivation?

………… The true power of the King of Fighters techniques was finally revealed at this moment! Logically, a mid-stage Level Six Fighter should not be a match for Level Three Battle Beasts like the Ice Rock Battle Wolves.

Level Three Magical Beasts and Battle Beasts represented the skill level of Level Seven to Nine Mages and Fighters. Yet, Chen Feng, possessing the King of Fighters techniques, made slaughtering Level Three Battle Beasts as easy as chopping vegetables, demonstrating the monstrous nature of these skills.

As the fight progressed, the onlookers grew somewhat numb. It would have been miraculous if Chen Feng failed to kill an Ice Rock Battle Wolf with a single punch.

Seeing his kin continually slaughtered, the White Wolf King could no longer bear it and let out a roar before leaping over! The ice-attributed Battle Qi, activated by the White Wolf King, made a “whoosh” sound.

The King leaped over ten meters into the air, descending upon Chen Feng from above. The surrounding wolves scattered immediately, dodging away as the White Wolf King moved.

Chen Feng retreated a few steps, preparing to activate the Phantom Crane Step to evade the aerial assault, when suddenly, a circular wall of solid ice erupted around him! This ice wall, harder than stone, was manifested from the White Wolf’s Battle Qi.

With a “bang,” the White Wolf King crashed into the ice wall. Even Chen Feng’s incredibly resilient body and blinding speed proved utterly ineffective against the barrier!

A Level Four Battle Beast was indeed a Level Four Battle Beast! Seeing his escape route blocked, Chen Feng remained unperturbed.

The vortex energy spun, “Aragami! Vortex Power 30%!” A crimson streak of fire shot from his fist toward the ice wall.

“Buzz…” The ice wall only shuddered slightly before remaining as steadfast as a mountain. What a hard ice wall!

The battle skills of a Level Four Battle Beast were not easily broken. At this moment, the White Wolf King roared again, and it was less than three meters away!

The ice-attributed Battle Qi, condensed into solid ice, carried wisps of chilling air as it tore through the atmosphere, whistling down. Finding evasion impossible, Chen Feng did not hesitate and unleashed Oogushi abruptly.

The observers—both human and wolf—saw a flash of white light, their eyes temporarily blinded. Chen Feng stood with his left hand raised high and his right arm extended, adopting a crane-stance with his feet, as a circle of crimson flame ominously stained half the sky!

“My eyes…” everyone screamed in agony. “Secret Technique, Oogushi!

Vortex Power 40%!” Although Oogushi was a finishing move, given Chen Feng’s current cultivation state, he could only manifest 40% of the vortex energy. Even at only 40% vortex power, its might far surpassed Aragami by scores of times.

“Boom…” A deafening explosion rocked the area. The ice wall formed by the surrounding Battle Qi shattered, fragmenting into fine ice dust that scattered everywhere.

The terrifying power of Oogushi was revealed to the world for the first time! The White Wolf King sensed danger and immediately tried to turn and flee, but even that momentary hesitation meant it was struck by the searing heat wave emanating from Oogushi.

Its entire white coat emitted a pungent, acrid smell as it was scorched black! “Awooo…” The White Wolf King, accustomed to roaming the forests unhindered, had never suffered such treatment.

Its precious white fur was instantly burned black—this intense shock threw it into extreme rage. It wheeled in mid-air, landed on a boulder five meters away, its eyes burning crimson.

It leaped into the air again, opening its maw to spit a blood-red Core at Chen Feng! “Boss, watch out!

It’s about to use its Blood Drop Innate Skill!” Xiao Hu’s anxious voice echoed in Chen Feng’s mind. The Ice Rock Battle Wolf’s innate skill was Ice Rock Art.

A Level Four Battle Wolf unleashing its innate skill possessed power comparable to a Level Four innate spell, which could not simply be withstood. “Blood Drop” was the most tyrannical method among innate spell-techniques, operating on a principle similar to the Demonic Heaven Shattering Technique in Liang Yusheng’s novels—burning the body’s blood to instantly unleash an overwhelming surge of power.

However, the side effect of this method was not death, but a severe depletion of stamina, requiring half a year to recover its peak condition. Austin saw the wolf spit the crimson Core and his face shifted dramatically.

He shouted, “Retreat quickly! It’s the Blood Drop Innate Skill!” The group was seventy to eighty meters from the White Wolf, indicating the seriousness of Austin’s alarm regarding the Blood Drop Innate Skill.

The wolves on the ground scattered simultaneously. Chen Feng heard Xiao Hu’s urgent shout but was not overly concerned internally.

Cang Bi Demonic Wolf had previously used a Level Four innate spell on Xiao Hu, and its power didn't seem overwhelming. He was considering stepping forward to use Oogushi again to obliterate it, when a realization struck him, followed by a bitter smile.

Unleashing Oogushi had specific requirements! “Now… I just finished the ultimate move, there are no Qi Points…” After shattering the vortex to unleash Oogushi, all the vortex energy was currently dispersed throughout his meridians.

To gather these scattered vortices again required a time buffer… And the so-called Qi Points referred precisely to the presence of spinning vortices… In his past life playing King of Fighters, Chen Feng called these Qi Points "Qi Beans." If you wanted to use a super move, you needed beans; without beans, the ultimate move couldn't be executed. He never expected that the KOF techniques he learned after transmigrating would be exactly the same as the game!

Fortunately, he could still use the Phantom Crane Step and Aragami while the vortex energy remained in his veins; otherwise, he would truly be waiting to die! Chen Feng pushed off with his feet, activating the Phantom Crane Step, darting backward like a streak of light.

He needed to evade the White Wolf King’s innate skill first, accumulate Qi Points, and then destroy it… But how could an innate skill driven by the Battle Core be so easily evaded? Chen Feng had barely traveled twenty meters when he felt a frigid air current rush toward him like a hurricane.

The intense pressure and the violent disturbance of surrounding ice elements caused a ringing in his ears, nearly making him pass out. “This… how is the power so different from Cang Bi Demonic Wolf’s innate magic…” Chen Feng cried out, immediately enveloped by a powerful chilling torrent.

It rapidly covered him in dozens of layers, each layer as hard as steel. In an instant, he was frozen into a translucent rock.

If it weren't for his incomparably strong physique, the sheer impact of the air current alone would have shattered him multiple times! “Boss…” Xiao Hu cried out anxiously!
