"You all ambush around, Zhou Xing, you are responsible for drawing it out." Lu Cong began to arrange things in an orderly manner, and the disciples of Wen Cang Sect took out crossbow bolts from their Storage Bag, then dispersed into the bushes, hiding their figures.
"What do we need to do?" Chu Yixuan frowned, knowing that Lu Cong was a cautious person. Given the current situation, it was clear that this black bear was extremely difficult to deal with; otherwise, they wouldn't have taken out long-range crossbow bolts.
"No need, Brother Chu, once the black bear comes out, I ask you to take action. After we succeed, the treasures on this black bear will be split between us." Lu Cong said.
Chu Yixuan nodded and raised his hand to signal Wang Yi and the others to be silent.
The disciple of Wen Cang Sect, Zhou Xing, drew a three-foot-long sword from behind and took out a black pellet with his left hand. He crouched down to minimize his footsteps and began to approach the stone cave.
Before long, Zhou Xing reached the entrance of the cave, his expression tense. He threw the black pellet into the cave, and immediately a loud explosion echoed from within; before the sound of the explosion faded, a deafening roar shook the ground, as if the very earth was trembling.
Zhou Xing's face changed slightly, and he immediately turned to run. Suddenly, he heard heavy footsteps behind him; the tremors of the ground made Wang Yi, who was watching from a distance, feel alarmed, wondering how large this black bear must be to create such a massive quake.
"Roar."
A thunderous roar shattered the air, accompanied by heavy footsteps as a gigantic shadow rushed out from the dark cave.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."
The sound of crossbow bolts slicing through the air rang out densely like locusts. Clink clink clink, a series of sounds like metal striking metal echoed as all the sharp crossbow bolts fell to the ground without piercing the body of the shadow.
"What?" Lu Cong's expression changed drastically as he realized something was wrong; it seemed this black bear had reached mid-level second tier.
In the next moment, Wang Yi finally saw the true form of this gigantic shadow and gasped in shock.
The black bear stood nearly three meters tall, its fur thick and dark. The white light reflected off its fur created glimmers of black light, resembling black iron. Even crossbow bolts could not penetrate its body, leaving behind several enormous footprints in its wake that were terrifyingly deep. Standing on the ground, it looked like a massive mountain of darkness.
"Lu Cong, what is going on? Didn't you say it was a Second-Level Beginner beast?" Chu Yixuan's expression turned slightly grim. This black bear was clearly a mid-level second-tier beast, and its skin had reached the hardness of Gold Iron. Trying to injure it with crossbow bolts was akin to chasing after a dream.
"Ah!"
A scream interrupted the conversation between the two. Wang Yi was startled and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a disciple of the Wen Cang Sect being slapped to death by a black bear in the grass, turning into a puddle of flesh.
The black bear sniffed the bloody air and immediately became ferocious, slapping its thick chest like palm leaves and roaring loudly, its terrifying voice making even the bravest feel a sense of suffocation.
"Retreat." Lu Cong's expression was no longer as calm as before; he shouted loudly.
But it was too late. Although the black bear was massive, it was not slow. As it ran, the ground trembled, and with one slap, the air turned red, blood splattering on the bushes, a nauseating sight of red and white against the green leaves.
The remaining disciples of the Wen Cang Sect changed their expressions drastically. Those who were brave turned pale with fear and quickly gathered around Lu Cong, watching the furious black bear warily.
"Lu Shixiong, what should we do now?" a young man covered in blood stammered. Just moments ago, he had nearly been killed by the black bear's slap, and his voice trembled as he spoke.
"Run." Lu Cong gritted his teeth. If this black bear were still a Second-Level Beginner beast, they could handle it, but a mid-level beast was beyond their capability.
"Roar."
A blood-boiling roar suddenly rang in their ears as the black bear charged forward, its arms swinging like black iron. Its blood-stained claws glinted ominously in the air, instilling fear in their hearts.
"Smack."
A young man failed to dodge in time and let out a wail as he was brutally killed under the black bear's paw.
Wang Yi's expression changed slightly. He gestured for Niu Meng to retreat and pushed off the ground, leaping five or six meters away before stopping. Cautiously, he drew out his Youhan Blade, channeling all his Vital Energy and Cui Gu into the blade, causing Blade Light to radiate.
Niu Meng glanced at his own fists and then at the black bear's claws. After hesitating for a moment, he took out his Chiyang Blade and asked, "Wang Yi, what should we do now?"
Wang Yi looked at the fierce black bear with a glint of determination in his eyes and licked his cracked lips. "Let's wait for a moment."
"Scatter." Chu Yixuan shouted loudly.
Lin Chao and the others knew it was not the time to show off, so they quickly retreated to the Deep Forest.
"Beast." Chu Yixuan's face was resolute as he shot forward, moving at incredible speed, and in an instant, he closed in on the black bear, delivering a powerful punch to its abdomen without hesitation.
Chu Yixuan felt as if his fist had struck iron; his expression changed drastically. Seeing that his attack had failed, he hurriedly retreated. The black bear, seeing this ant daring to attack it, bared its fangs and brought its paw down from above. With a loud sound, Chu Yixuan was caught off guard and had a piece of his sleeve torn away.
Lu Cong was no coward either. As the first disciple of the Outer Sect of Wen Cang Sect, his strength was not weak. He let out a soft shout and drew his sword from his back, aiming the tip directly at the black bear's paw.
"Smack."
The black bear saw another ant approaching and scoffed at it. With its large paw, it grabbed the long sword, and the sound of metal snapping echoed as several segments of the silver blade fell from its grasp.
Lu Cong raised an eyebrow, leaped into the air, and with a loud thud, kicked the black bear in the abdomen, using the force to fly backward.
"Roar." The black bear was furious to see that the ant beneath its eyes had managed to escape. Its eyes turned red with rage as it charged forward.
Chu Yixuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "You attack from behind while I distract it in front."
"Okay." Lu Cong nodded and swiftly maneuvered around to the back of the black bear. Both were Eighth Layer martial artists with family martial arts training; their strength was certainly beyond that of ordinary Eighth Layer martial artists. Moreover, Lu Cong was known as the first disciple of the Outer Sect of Wen Cang Sect.
Wang Yi watched as Chu Yixuan and Lu Cong unleashed their full power. He clenched his fists tightly, filled with determination. He realized that with his current strength, he could not defeat Chu Yixuan yet; however, he remained full of fighting spirit, believing that one day he would become strong enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with Chu Yixuan.
"Roar." Standing on the rocky ground, Chu Yixuan suddenly let out a thunderous roar that resonated like thunder. His body cracked as if bones were shifting, creating an eerie scene.
Before their eyes, the originally tall and handsome Chu Yixuan's muscles bulged out suddenly, and he grew taller by the moment until he transformed into a giant resembling Niu Meng. His upper body was torn apart, revealing bronze-colored muscles filled with masculine strength.
"Thunder Roar Technique," Lu Cong exclaimed in astonishment.
Chu Yixuan's eyes sparkled with brilliance, clearly demonstrating the family's Martial Arts. With a single step, the ground instantly sank, and the sand and stones were crushed beneath his feet. In just a few steps, he appeared in front of the black bear and threw another punch, the air seemingly infused with the sound of wind and thunder.
"Bang."
Chu Yixuan felt as if his fist had struck iron; a tremendous force surged through his body. Before he could react, a sharp pain shot through his shoulder, and he was sent flying backward.
Lu Cong was already poised for action, his Vital Energy at its peak. Quick as lightning, he struck the black bear's back with both fists, causing it to stumble and fall to the ground, yet it remained unharmed.
Lin Chao looked at Chu Yixuan, who was kneeling on one knee with blood at the corner of his mouth, and was taken aback. "Brother Chu."
"I'm fine." Chu Yixuan shook his heavy head and looked in shock at the black bear, thinking to himself, "Damn it, the family's Fourth-Rank Martial Technique can't withstand it at all."
The black bear let out a roar of frustration that startled all the birds in the forest into flight.
"Brother Chu, I think we should leave. This beast is beyond our ability to handle." Lu Cong glanced at the bloodied disciple of Wen Cang Sect and felt deep regret; he hadn't expected this revenge mission to cost several junior brothers their lives.
"Alright." Chu Yixuan had no other options and turned to say, "Let's go."
However, the black bear was enraged by their actions and would not allow them to leave. With a furious roar, it charged toward Chu Yixuan with a powerful gust of cold wind.
Chu Yixuan was already heavily injured and could not evade; he took a solid hit to his chest. Blood sprayed out as he flew backward like a kite with its string cut.
Lin Chao was horrified. He glanced back at the furious black bear with fear in his eyes and picked up the unconscious Chu Yixuan from the bushes. He turned and shouted, "Wang Yi, Niu Meng, let's go!"
A disciple of Kaiyang Sect was caught by the black bear while running; it clawed off his left arm, blood gushing forth as he fell to the ground in agony. The black bear's killing intent surged as it stomped down, extinguishing the young man's life. Blood shot up half a foot high, staining the black bear's dark fur red, its ferocious appearance sending chills down spines.
Lu Cong led the disciples of Wen Cang Sect down toward Mountain Base in haste.
Wang Yi and Niu Meng ran away without looking back, but unexpectedly, the black bear had set its sights on them. Wang Yi cursed inwardly and turned to look back just as the black bear suddenly crouched down, its massive body leaping up over five meters high.
With a loud bang, it was as if a bomb had exploded in front of them. Following the sound, they saw a giant black shadow appear before them.
"Get out of the way." Wang Yi's face changed dramatically as he hurriedly pushed Niu Meng aside and used the momentum to fly backward.
"Big brother, are you okay?" Niu Meng, seeing Wang Yi tumble to the ground, was filled with concern and called out anxiously.
"You go your way, and I'll go mine. Let's meet at the Mountain Base Inn." Wang Yi thought to himself that he should have left earlier; he had no idea why this black bear was targeting them.
"Okay."
Just as Wang Yi was about to breathe a sigh of relief upon hearing Niu Meng's response, he saw the black bear charging towards him.
The black paw came crashing down with tremendous force. There was no doubt that this blow could crush Wang Yi's skull. In a split second, Wang Yi swung his knife instinctively. With a clang, an immense force surged back at him, causing him to stagger backward.
"Roar!" The black bear was furious; it had lost part of a finger from its right paw, blood gushing out like smoke. It seemed that a Mystic Grade Weapon was indeed far superior to a yellow-grade weapon; even its iron-like paw could not withstand the blade's sharpness.
Wang Yi shook his head inwardly. If that strike had landed on the bear's abdomen, it might have slowed it down, but now it only made the creature angrier.
