Five figures were running quickly in the woods. Their footsteps fell, making a slight crackling sound on dead branches and leaves. When the wind blew, they dissipated invisible.
"The black-backed bear is an intermediate ferocious beast, equivalent to the strength of a seventh-level swordsman in the Sword Qi Realm. With the strength of the five of us, it's probably still a bit difficult to win." Chu Mu pretended to be curious as he ran. asked.
He has extraordinary eyesight, and he can see that the cultivation level of these four swordsmen are all below the seventh level of the Sword Qi Realm. The leader is probably the sixth level of the Sword Qi Realm, and the other three are at the fifth level of the Sword Qi Realm. part.
With such a combination of strength, fighting against a swordsman at the seventh level of the Sword Qi Realm would be a recipe for death. However, it is still possible to fight against a ferocious beast equivalent to the seventh level of the Sword Qi Realm. After all, the intelligence of ferocious beasts is very low. .
"Don't worry, Your Excellency, we have been prepared for a long time, but we are worried about the unexpected, so we plan to find one more person. Unexpectedly, we will meet you, a disciple of the Qingfeng Sword Sect, which makes us full of confidence." The leader of the Sword Swordsman explained briefly. , while complimenting Chu Mu, if it were another disciple, he would probably feel light and airy.
"It's good since you're prepared." Chu Mu didn't ask much about his preparations, his expression was a bit pretentious. He knew that there was no such good thing in the world as giving him a Three-Yang Fruit.
According to the Baicao Illustrated Book, Sanyang Fruit is one of the elixirs used to refine Qi Po Pills. The effect of taking it alone is several times that of Gathering Qi Pills. It is extremely valuable. This is why Chu Mu agreed. What's more, these guys' Cultivation is not in his eyes at all.
"Your Excellency, we don't know anything about you. Should you tell me what swordsmanship you practice?" Suddenly, a short young swordsman interjected.
"I practice two swordsmanships, one for entry-level swordsmanship and one for intermediate swordsmanship." Chu Mu said, with a look of complacency and pride on his face.
"Intermediate swordsmanship!" The four swordsmen exclaimed, very surprised. At the same time, they looked at each other secretly, and saw a trace of excitement and excitement in each other's eyes.
"Your Excellency, you are indeed a disciple of the Qingfeng Sword Sect. You must be highly valued by the Sword Sect. Otherwise, how could you practice intermediate swordsmanship." Liu Tao, the leader of the Sword Sword Sect, said with a smile without leaving any trace, trying to match Chu Mu's words.
"It's nothing, it's just that because of my outstanding swordsmanship talent, an elder admired me." Chu Mu made an expression that wanted to keep a low profile but couldn't help being proud, waved his hand and said.
"I wonder how far you have mastered the intermediate swordsmanship." Liu Tao asked with a hint of surprise in his tone.
"You've basically mastered it. You can use your killing moves, but you need a few breaths of time to prepare." Chu Mu looked like he wanted to tell all the secrets and show off in front of these swordsmen, and he also pretended to be regretful. He sighed and said: "Unfortunately, my current sword energy cultivation level is too low. I can only use one killing move. After the sword energy is used, there is not much sword energy left. Therefore, once I use the killing move to attack Hei Carrying a bear, I won't have much fighting power next."
"Don't worry, Your Excellency, the mid-level swordsmanship killing move is extremely powerful. Once it hits the black-backed bear, even if the black-backed bear does not die immediately, it will definitely be seriously injured and lose its combat effectiveness." A flash of ecstasy flashed in Liu Tao's eyes, and he quickly suppressed it. , but his tone was still a little trembling with excitement: "We will also protect you and help you restore your sword energy cultivation."
As he spoke, Liu Tao suddenly reached out to stop everyone and glanced at the short young man.
The short young man walked forward with his waist crouched, and took out something from the cloth bag at his waist. It was a dark mass that exuded a sweet fragrance. Chu Mu was thoughtful.
Immediately, the short young man hid behind a big rock and threw out the fist-sized black thing in his hand. Not far behind the big rock, something seemed to be moving, and a low muffled roar came. However, Chu Mu and others could not see it because of the big stone.
"That's the honey of the killer bee, which is the favorite food of the black-backed bear. When the black-backed bear sees the honey of the killer bee, he just eats it without thinking too much." The leader of the Swordsman explained in a low voice: "And we put a lot of anesthetic in that ball of honey. If we eat it, the potency of the drug will be released within half a stick of incense. By then, the black-backed bear will be affected, with slow movements and slow reactions, and its strength will be reduced by at least Thirty percent, when the time comes, we will create opportunities for you, and your mid-level killing move will definitely hit the black-backed bear."
When Chu Mu heard this, he immediately understood that under the influence of the anesthetic, the strength of the black-backed bear dropped by 30%, and they were more confident in killing the black-backed bear. As for why poison was not used, it was very simple. Once poison was used, the medicinal properties would remain in the black-backed bear. The black-backed bear loses its due value.
You must know that the black-backed bear is an intermediate-level ferocious beast. Bear skin, bear paws, even bear meat, bear bones, bear blood, etc. can be sold for a good price.
Soon, the time for half a stick of incense passed.
"Let's do it, Your Excellency, please do it with all your strength." Liu Tao said, and immediately, several people drew their swords and rushed forward quickly. Chu Mu also rushed over, jumped over the boulder, and saw a huge grizzly bear lying on the ground. , but the fur on the back is a whole strip of black from the top of the head to the tail vertebrae.
Chu Mu also saw that a few meters behind the black-backed bear, there was a light red grass. Among the three leaves, there was a red fruit the size of a longan. It was so tempting. That was the three-petal leaf. Yang Guo.
The appearance of Liu Tao and others, full of murderous intent, immediately alarmed the black-backed bear.
"Roar..."
The black-backed bear woke up and stood up suddenly. Its thick paws slapped the ground, vibrating like a drum, like a small hill. Its dark eyes burst out with a ferocious and bloodthirsty light, and its protruding mouth suddenly opened. , directed at Chu Mu and others, let out a roar like rolling thunder, and in an instant, it seemed as if the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking.
Such power makes people change their color.
"Kill!" Liu Tao shouted, raised his sword with both hands, jumped up, and slashed with one sword, like cracking a mountain and breaking rocks. The momentum was overwhelming. The sword Liu Tao used was different from ordinary swords. It was longer and wider than the palm of his hand. , appears thicker and more powerful when slashed.
The other three also rushed forward and attacked the black-backed bear from the side.
Chu Mu did not take action directly, but stared closely at the black-backed bear, observing its every reaction.
"Roar..." Seeing that these little things dared to attack him, the black-backed bear became even more angry. His little eyes were covered with a bloody light, like a human being. He stood upright, raised his thick bear paw, and slapped it hard. It was like swatting a fly at Liu Tao. This palm was too strong. If he was hit in the head, it would explode.
The strong wind roared and huge waves came like empty waves. Liu Tao's expression changed drastically. He twisted his wrist forcefully and slashed at the black-backed bear's huge palm with his sword.
With a bang, the sharp sword only left a faint white mark on the bear's paw, but Liu Tao was slapped to the side by the black-backed bear's powerful palm.
The other three swordsmen rushed to both sides of the black-backed bear and used sword skills from both sides and belly.
Three swords, three low-level swordsmanship killing moves, hit the black-backed bear's body at the same time. The sword energy was horizontal and vertical, leaving wounds on the black-backed bear's body, dripping with blood.
"Roar..." The black-backed bear was furious, and raised another bear's paw. A faint yellow luster appeared on the bear's paw, and he slapped it hard, just like swatting an insect.
"Back up, it's an angry bear!" Liu Tao quickly rolled twice and stood up. When he saw it, his face changed drastically and he roared.
Bear Fury, the beast skill of the black-backed bear, is low-level, and its power is equivalent to the killing move of low-level swordsmanship, but when used by a black-backed bear in the seventh stage of sword energy realm, its power is extraordinary.
There was a loud bang, the earth shook, the ground shattered, and a hole was directly exploded. Sand and stone shot out like hidden weapons. The powerful impact caused the three swordsmen to fly out upside down. One of them was unlucky. He was too slow to dodge and was hit. Half of his body was in severe pain and blood spurted out wildly.
"Kill!" Liu Tao roared with grief and anger on his face, and drew his sword. The tiger roared in the forest. Under the big sword, a clear tiger appeared. It was a tiger roaring and killing wildly. The power was a bit stronger than Wang Lei's.
After eating the black-backed bear with anesthetic, its reaction was much slower. It was immediately hit by the tiger. With a bang, a wound appeared on its abdomen, blood sprayed out, and the huge force made the black-backed bear take two steps back.
"Your Excellency, don't make a move yet." Liu Tao succeeded with the sword but quickly backed away, shouting at Chu Mu at the same time.
