Make a Move
"Alright, this is the place I was talking about." After walking for a while, the three of them finally arrived at a valley.
The location of this valley was extremely remote. After passing through a few caves and a few complicated terrains, they finally arrived at this place. Han Zhong and Gu Xuan were extremely lucky to have discovered this place.
Han Zhong smiled and said, "Junior Brother Chen and I found this place thanks to an unranked Spiritual Treasure on me that can sense the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth in the surroundings. Otherwise, it would not have been so easy to find such a secret place."
Gu Xuan nodded and felt relieved. Other than the Heaven, Earth and Man grade Soul Treasures, there were also some that did not have a grade. Even so, the price of these Soul Treasures were extraordinary. The value of the Soul Treasure in Han Zhong's hands was probably much higher than the "Spirit Crystal Lode" that he had discovered.
However, this was normal. Although there were many Spirit Crystals, there was a limit. With such a Soul Treasure, one could continuously obtain treasures.
Han Zhong's straightforwardness greatly improved Gu Xuan's impression of him. Normally, when a cultivator obtained such a treasure, they would want nothing more than to hide it from others. Even if they told others, they would definitely tell their confidants. Han Zhong telling Gu Xuan this was a sign of trust.
Of course, the most important reason was that he trusted Gu Xuan's strength. Even if Gu Xuan really wanted to steal his Soul Treasure, it would be impossible. However, what he did not know was that although Gu Xuan did not have such a Soul Treasure, Yun Xi, the Heavenly Fire Spirit, was much more useful than a Soul Treasure.
After walking for another thousand feet, the trio's footsteps alerted the Flame Beasts in the area, causing them to let out a series of roars.
Gu Xuan looked towards the direction of the sound and discovered a Black Flame Beast. Its body was sturdy and was the size of an ordinary water buffalo. It was lying on a large rock. Beside the Flame Beast was a fruit tree covered in tumors. On the fruit tree, there were seven red and even somewhat translucent Mysterious Spirit Fruits.
"Junior brother Gu, later on, you and I will be the main attackers. Junior brother Chen Mang's agility is the most agile. We will hold it back and let junior brother Chen Mang deal the fatal blow."
Han Zhong turned to Gu Xuan and said with a serious look in his eyes, "Junior Brother, you must be careful later. Don't act rashly. Just stand behind me and help me. This Flame Beast's strength is equivalent to an Eight Star Mystic Class. It's not something to be underestimated. Junior Brother can easily be hurt."
"Alright," Gu Xuan nodded and did not have any objections.
"Junior Brother Chen, you must be careful as well." Han Zhong turned to Chen Mang and said.
"Rest assured, with my strength, I am not weak." Chen Mang nodded and shot a provocative look at Gu Xuan. Gu Xuan's demand for two Mystical Spirit Fruits had made him very unhappy and he had long wanted to use this opportunity to deal a blow to Gu Xuan.
"Alright, let's do it!" Han Zhong nodded his head. His Flame Energy started to circulate and his body grew a little stronger. He took a step forward and shot towards the Black Flame Bear.
"Roar!"
The black bear roared and stood up. It swung its fan-like palm towards Han Zhong. Although Han Zhong's body was strong, he was much smaller than the black bear.
Bang!
One man and one bear clashed head-on once. This disproportionate collision was actually evenly matched.
"Great!"
Han Zhong took two steps back, his spirit greatly roused. He alone could restrain the black bear. Although he was at a disadvantage, this was enough. Chen Mang's strength was not inferior to his. Although Gu Xuan was weaker, he could help Han Zhong completely restrain the black bear and kill it.
Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows and his opinion of Han Zhong rose a little. This person was only at the Six Star Mystic Class, but he was able to rely on his strong body to clash head-on with an Eight Star Mystic Class Flame Beast. His ability to challenge those at a higher level was quite terrifying. Although there was still a huge gap between him and Han Zhong, Han Zhong was still relatively rare among ordinary people.
"Roar!"
The black bear's attack was blocked and it immediately became furious. Its aura was several times stronger than before. Gu Xuan took a step forward and arrived beside Han Zhong.
Seven mysterious runes appeared on his palm as he used the Star Plucking Hand!
The black bear moved both of its palms and rained down on Gu Xuan and Han Zhong like a storm.
Han Zhong was afraid that Gu Xuan would not be able to withstand it, so he took on 80% of the attacks alone, allowing Gu Xuan to take on 20% of the attacks. However, as they clashed again and again, Han Zhong realized that Gu Xuan's strength was equivalent to an ordinary Peak Six Star Mystic Class Flame Beast. Gu Xuan's body strength was not weaker than his.
The attacks that Gu Xuan took on gradually increased. In the end, it took up 40% of the attacks. With the two of them working together, the black bear was completely suppressed.
"Junior Brother Chen, let's do it!" Han Zhong shouted.
"Alright!" Chen Mang squinted his eyes and a ray of black light appeared under his feet.
Swoosh!
Chen Mang's body flew out and moved at a high speed, forming afterimages in the air.
Puff!
A blade light flashed and a wound appeared on the black bear's chest. The black bear was enraged, but under the suppression of Han Zhong and Gu Xuan, the black bear had no ability to resist at all. It could only be slaughtered by Chen Mang.
Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!
The saber light was like silk and condensed into a line. It slashed the black bear's body again and again, causing hideous wounds to appear on the black bear's body. Even though the black bear had a large body, it was still severely injured.
"This saber will take its life!"
Chen Mang was excited. He held the short saber in his hand and went straight for the black bear's throat.
"Roar!"
Right at this moment, the black bear suddenly let out a furious roar. Its originally weak aura suddenly surged at this moment.
Dang!
The bear swiped its claws and hit Chen Mang's short saber. Chen Mang's body immediately flew out from the impact.
"Oh no, it has broken through!" Chen Mang was thrown back dozens of steps. The vigorous force hurt his lungs and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face suddenly changed.
"D * mn it!" Han Zhong took a few steps back. His face was filled with unwillingness. Hei Xiong's breakthrough was equivalent to a peak Profound Rank warrior. Even if there were ten of them, they might not be a match for Hei Xiong. Although he had just broken through and was seriously injured, he was still far from being able to exert his peak strength. It was still not something they could contend with.
It could be said that the black bear's breakthrough meant that they had no chance of obtaining the Mystical Spiritual Fruit.
Chen Mang's face was ashen. They had put in so much effort for the Mystical Spiritual Fruit and even waited for help for three days. In the end, this was the result. It was unacceptable.
"Let's retreat. We are no match for it now. When it recovers, we won't be able to escape." Han Zhong sighed.
