Burning bulls!

Alright! Now that all the distraction have left, its time to train a little but first the essence from the dead men suddenly gathered around me and entered through my right eye. I do wander why its my right eye these essence enter from but its not too important right now, what is important is that it takes ages for me to level up from level 34 to 35. I believe I'm close to it now, thanks to the dead mercenaries, and just need to find a really strong beast, the beasts weaker then me give me barely any exp.

I walked further down the forest, further away from the kingdom, in hope to find something worthwhile.

So far I've only come across beasts between level 20-30 which are too weak to even hunt. *sigh* curse my awful luck. As I was thinking about going back since its nearly lunch, a horde of red bulls with large blazing horns are charging at my direction! They are all around level 38 to 42 and there is about 50 of them! From what I remember these beasts had a very short temper and traveled in groups which made them very dangerous as one was easy to take care of but a horde was a death wish for many however these are way bigger and have larger horns from what I remember. These ones were at least 4 times larger then an average bull in my time! Even the largest bull from my time would be nothing compared to these and 50 of them are charging straight towards me! However if I can kill them then I might be able to go up more then one level.

I began to ran away from the bulls while releasing my ice aura, leading to the floor behind me to turn to a small layer of ice. Lets see if they will slip. Sadly the fire around there horns vaporized my ice. Crap there getting closer and now they noticed me! They all began to flare up there horns making it look like a large trail of fire chasing me! In fact the bulls are barely visible from this fire.

I began to use the [flow control martial arts] to circulate my energy to my legs as efficiently as possible to run faster however since I'm using ice energy to do so, my legs will slowly get cold and become ice. Luckily I have a good resistance to ice but if my legs starts to freeze, eventually I would be unable to move my legs. For now theirs quite a good distance from the bulls and I.

Since these things are large, they must weigh quite a lot which will be my biggest advantage! First criteria is to stop there movement and how does one stop a movement of 50 pissed off bulls? Simple just make them lose their balance!

While running I use [flow burst] ,a technique from [flow control martial arts], and direct it to my feet to the ground which makes some cracks of 10 diameters while the main damage is under the cracks. With a unstable foundation, the moment they step on the ground, with their weight, the ground should brake further making the terrain unstable and halt them in there tracks!

To make sure I get all of them, the initial cracks have a fairly strong foundation but its still damaged enough that the leading bulls would damage the initial foundations which will lead to it to crumble for the last bull. As i go on, the cracks I create will be more fragile then the last, These bulls will be screwed!

I use it numerous times to make sure I will get all these bulls!

Alright I think its time to stop. Sweating all over, I stop on my tracks and see a ball of intense fire about burn every inch of me!

Well that is probably what would have happened but as planned before it got to me the ground that the front bull stepped on crumbled further, making the ground imbalanced which tumbled the bull over and the shock lead it to extinguish the fire of its horns; falling down. The rest joined him immediately right until the last bull!

Now the ground is all screwed up but the trail of fire that was chasing is gone and the bulls have collapsed. Before they get up, I need to kill them but I'm pretty sure I can't kill them fast enough before they gain there stability, so I have to be a little creative!

Concentration my ice energy around my lungs, I inhale as much air as possible and make it frost cold inside my body. I use [flow control] to strengthen my chest and lungs to intake more air then normally possible and then blow it to the bulls! Ice cold frost mist is released from my mouth to the bulls which begins to freeze there body. I need to block there noise and mouth to prevent them from breathing and make sure the air is cold enough that they can't activate there fire horns. With these type of bulls they require to be in warm conditions to ignite there horns as the fire they make isn't because they have fire energy in them. Its actually because of there immense body heat from there fur which takes in heat very easily and there horns are made of a material that is easily flammable, they use the heat around them and direct it to there horns which cause it to flare up and burn, so the warmer the climate they are in then the more dangerous they are. But if they go to cold area with limited heat then there body heat would decrease thus leading to there horns to be unable to burn, making them very vulnerable to other predators. They are very tolerant to heat but not so much to the cold which will be there downfall! Since there burning horns are off, I can use this small window of opportunity to freeze there air holes.

fwooosh!

I am using all the breath I have, making me light headed, and all my mana to try to get it so cold that they will die! Crap, I'm gonna pass out from lack of air and the bulls are still quite strong releasing embers from there horns leading to there noise and mouth to be barely frozen!

Think!Think!Think! If I can't make the air cold enough to stop them before I pass out I will die!

I got it! When I fought that hooded guy, a sudden surge of energy risen from deep within which allowed me to crush that guy.

It happened when I was in a desperate time and this is quite a desperate time right?

As if it heard me, a sudden cold sensation overwhelms my body and I start to feel my mana replenish at an increasing rate!

With this sudden growth something popped inside my head.

[Frost burst mist!]

My movement became so natural and my hands clapped together and the sudden understanding of this move, I picture the magic circle of this move.

When my hands collided, a magic seal appeared in front of them and a burst of frost mist were released from the circle which is at least 10 times colder then my breath mist!

My entire front view was covered in pure mist! I could barely see anything.

When the mist cleared up, my eyes widened, the bulls were completely encased in ice but also the floor and the trees around it were also in pure ice!

Damn my first ever proper spell I have ever done is amazing! I felt so much joy on being able use an actual spell!

All my life, I had to survive using fighting techniques rather then proper spells and magic. Does this mean I'm a magician now?

Using a spell gave me far more joy then killing those bulls that I nearly forgot about them if it wasn't for the sudden essence from them dashing straight to my eye.

Though its minuscule compared to those vampires, its quite reassuring to know I will am a little more stronger for tonight compared to previously

However I wander why when I am in desperate times a sudden burst of energy comes from. Do I have a 'berserk' skill or something? I need to look into that at some point.
