The Iron Glazed Bear finally began to sense the threat of death from the human before it, then it let out a savage roar! Its beautiful little red eyes changed to crimson red with a cruel look appeared in it, giving a shivery feeling. Those who were familiar with the chakra beast could tell, the bear entered the primitive state and will attack everything within its view.
A murderous aura came from its eyes, causing Ji Yun to terrified.
"Growl!" The Iron glazed bear charged towards him, the ground underneath it began to crack.
Ji Yun dodged swiftly, with quick and sudden movements he dodged another attack, at the same time, his sword stabbed and fresh blood flowed out once more, and yet another place was pierced by his sword. Since his sword was heated to a large degree, it gave terrifying pain to the iron bear. Without care for its wound, it began to madly slash its sharp claws towards Ji Yun, he easily dodged the attacks and retreated little distance from the bear.
Ji Yun and iron bear clashed with each other again and again, each time when they exchanged the blow, a sword wound would appear on the bear's body. Ji Yun also sometimes got slashed by its sharp claws, since he possesses a powerful physical body, nothing is major wound! The Iron bear's body was fully covered with dozens of stab wounds, and a large wound in its neck.
The Iron bear let out a sad growl. It was hardly able to stand straight, its front two legs were trembling and a large amount of blood flowed from its wounds, as though it could collapse at any time.
The Iron Glazed bear let out a final Growl!! as it rushed towards Ji Yun and began its final attack. Its speed and strength are fully reduced because of so many sword wounds, Ji Yun also knows this is the Iron Bear's final struggle to the path of survival.
Ji Yun aimed his longsword at the Iron glazed bear and swiftly dodged its attacks, jumped towards the bear's head, While his fully heated long sword pierced its head.
With a Thud! The Iron Glazed bear lifelessly collapsed on the ground since its brain is pierced by the Ji Yun's heated sword. Its iron coated fur was fully stained with the blood, like that Peak mortal stage 4 chakra beast have been Killed!!
Finally, Ji Yun let out a sigh of relief. Even though he was able to kill the iron bear but he was also fully exhausted both physically and mentally. If he was not careful he could have lost his life in the claws of Iron bear. Ji Yun carefully checked his surroundings whether there are other beasts nearby, after confirming nothing is nearby. He silently sat cross-legged beside the dead iron bear to replenish his physical body. Since this place is little away from the forest, no chakra beast will come and interrupt him.
Ji Yun's body was fully decorated with blood and there are more than 10 claw wounds in his body but nothing is deep. You can already see the blood stopped coming out from his wound and are showing signs of closing. Even he was astonished by his own physical recovery and its mightiness.
After 10 mins of resting, he recovered almost half of his physical strength. Since the mission requires him to submit the Chakra core, he has to retrieve it from the Iron glazed bears body.
'Most of the chakra beast core will be in their abdomen region, I will first check that place'. Considering this, Ji Yun took out the long sword which is at the breaking point and sliced the bear from chest to abdomen while searched with his hand and found a small circular crystal which was in between its chest and abdomen region.
Its a shiny round shaped crystal with a brown mist located in its center. It's the chakra of Iron Glazed bear, using the cloud in the center of the chakra core, you can easily identify its rank.
"Finally, I finished the mission given by the Academy. With the academic points, I will be able to practice some elemental techniques. But first I need to search around this area, the iron glazed bear won't simply come out of the forest and stay here for a long time. There must be something nearby which attracted it, If that was the case I should look around where I first met the Iron bear". Considering this Ji Yun quickly walked towards the area.
Even though this mountain is little away from the forest, it's filled with large amount of trees, plants, bushes, weeds, grasses and you can easily smell a herbal fresh air in here.
Ji Yun reached the place where he first saw the iron bear and began to search to find any clue. He tracked the paw marks of the iron bear and was easily able to find its resting location. On the way, he saw Rank 2 Mad bull chakra beast which was killed by some claw mark, he was sure it was killed by the iron bear.
The paw marks led to a little cave, you can't call it a large hole because it was only enclosed by two large rocks and can easily shelter the iron bear. But what caught Ji Yun's eyes is a 7 feet small tree at the edge of the cave and the fruit hanging in it.
"It's a Rank- 5 Clear earth fruit!! I hit a jackpot, haha. No wonder the iron bear very aggressively assaulted the strangers in its territory. With this earth type fruit, it could have easily broken through and entered Mortal rank 5. Even though it was of no use to me, I can easily sell it for more than 50,000 gold coins. What a huge harvest!!
But the fruit hasn't reached its maturity, I think it will take 2 more days to fully mature. I should close the cave with something and visit the village to get the village head's signature. After I finish the formalities in the village, I can pluck the fruit on the way back".
Ji Yun went and collected large trees trunks to block the cave's entrance for safety. After confirming the safety of the fruit, he walked towards Drake's village.
Drake's Village,
"Uncle Drake, that young master has been gone for more than 4 hours, will he be okay?" The young boy named Yi urged Drake.
"I think he will be okay, even if he wasn't able to kill the bear beast, he will be easily able to escape if there is any life-threatening situation". Drake replied while he subconsciously looked towards the direction Ji Yun went, he saw a young man walking towards his village, his eyes lit up after confirming its Ji Yun.
"Young master, did you successfully killed the Bear beast?" Drake hurriedly walked in front of bloodstained Ji Yun and hopefully asked.
"Yes, hereafter, you don't have to worry. This is the beast chakra core since the iron bear is very massive I didn't carry it". Ji Yun smilingly replied and showed the Iron glazed bear's chakra core.
"It's OK, Young master. Please tell me the location, I will send the villagers to carry it and you can also sell the bear body for some gold coins". Drake willingly asked Ji Yun but one could easily see his happy expression. Drake really was in cloud nine since the danger lurking near his village was destroyed now everyone can continue their work.
Ji Yun provided the location where he killed the Iron glazed Bear, Drake excused himself saying, to clean himself in the same guest house and he will go collect the bear body with some villagers.
Ji Yun also wanted to clean himself since he is currently stained with both his and bears blood. He entered the house provided for him and cleaned himself. When he noticed his body, most of his wounds are already half healed.
After cleaning himself, he meditated for one hour by circulating his physical cultivation technique and a large amount of sun chakra entered his body. Since he fought a very tough battle, the sun chakra which entered his body further strengthened him by nourishing his muscles, bones and also fully healed his wounds.
Ji Yun who has finished his meditation in the house suddenly heard a commotion outside.
'Look it's gigantic!! Is that the bear which lurked near our village for this few days. How did the young lord kill this massive creature which is thrice his size?' A villager loudly exclaimed. When Ji Yun came out, he saw another villager ran towards one particular house and screamed,
'Brother black, come and see, its the Bear beast which killed your partner. The young lord who came to our village killed it'.
Ji Yun looked at the Iron glazed bear which he killed was being carried by 10 villagers. The whole village came out to see what type of terrifying beast killed their fellow villager but when they saw the bear, everyone was astonished by its massive body and the iron glazed fur.
