After leaving Ula City, Guding spent over three months in the nearby Sal Mountain Range. During this period, he lived like a wild man, chasing after Heavenly God level demon beasts in the Sal Mountain Range every day to hone his practical combat abilities. He resolutely refrained from using soul attacks unless absolutely necessary.
This also led him to repeatedly fall into situations where he was nearly killed.
There was one particular incident when a Fourth Tier True God level Howling Moon Demon Wolf pursued Guding across more than thirty thousand kilometers. Guding used every trick at his disposal, fighting while fleeing, and even unleashed his Emperor Body, only to have it torn apart by the beast's claws. It wasn't until he was finally caught and had half his body bitten off that he reluctantly used a soul attack to kill the beast.
