Starting with a daily divination to build an immortal clan

Chapter 128 Mineral Lode
Thanks to their affluent living conditions and the nourishment of spiritual energy, Zhao Jinhu and Liu Fang, despite not having undergone formal training, were much stronger than their peers.

If it were an ordinary bear, the two brothers would never be in such a sorry state.

But now, the one relentlessly pursuing us is a monstrous beast!
Even though the giant bear was injured, the two were still chased and leaped around.

The two fled in panic, their bodies already scratched and bloodied by the surrounding branches, yet they still dared not stop!

"Brother Jin Hu... can't run anymore!"

Liu Fang was panting heavily, his face covered in blood that had obscured his left eye.

"You have to run even if you can't!"

Zhao Jinhu supported him by the arm, and they slid down a steep slope covered with snow.

As soon as the two landed, a huge rock covered in frost was smashed into them by the giant bear!
They rolled down the steep slope they slid down!

Just as the two were about to be crushed into mincemeat by the boulder, a heavy whooshing sound suddenly came from behind them!
boom!
A long spear pierced through the air and instantly embedded itself between the two men and the boulder!
boom!
The boulder struck the shaft of the spear, immediately changing its trajectory and rolling down the other side of the hillside!

By the time the two realized what was happening, Shen Wenxing and Huang Qingzhou were already standing not far away.

"Stone!"

Having survived the ordeal, Zhao Jinhu shouted excitedly.

Shen Wenxing's gaze was fixed on the giant bear at the top of the hill.

"Can you still move?"

"Get out of here immediately."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jinhu hurriedly helped Liu Fang hide behind the two of them.

"Can the two of us handle this beast?"

Looking at the giant bear, which was nearly two zhang tall and exuded a fierce aura, Huang Qingzhou's expression became somewhat solemn.

He was only at the first level of Qi Refining, but the aura emanating from the giant bear in front of him made him feel a sense of oppression.

Shen Wenxing glanced at the bear-man and said with a faint smile, "No need for father-in-law to take action, I'll try my hand at it myself."

This bear-man was indeed a demonic beast, but judging from its aura, it was only equivalent to the second or third level of Qi Refining, and it was also injured. He was confident that he could handle it.

Knowing that he was no match for his son-in-law, Huang Qingzhou didn't try to be brave and retreated to Zhao Jinhu and his companion's side, ready to provide support at any time.

Shen Wenxing channeled his spiritual energy and charged forward.

He didn't even bother to grab his weapon, intending to fight the monster with his bare hands!
The bear-man monster was first injured in the leg by the giant trap set up by Zhao Jinhu and his companion, and then harassed by the two men. Despite chasing them all the way, it was unable to catch up with them.

His ferocity had long been unleashed.

It only felt a slight sense of apprehension when it sensed the spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from Shen Wenxing and Huang Qingzhou.

But now that it saw the two-legged creature charging at it unarmed, its temper flared up instantly!
Roar!
Its enormous head suddenly stretched out and roared at Shen Wenxing!
Invisible sound waves rippled through the air, sending snow flying and tree branches flying like a storm!
Shen Wenxing was the first to be hit, and he felt that the roar of the monster seemed to contain some kind of strange power, which washed over his body like a tide!
He could sense that if an ordinary person were hit head-on by that roar, their internal organs would probably be shattered!
Fortunately, as a body cultivator, his body was far superior to that of ordinary people, and he withstood the attack by relying solely on the power of his qi and blood!
Despite the roar of the bear-like monster, Shen Wenxing charged forward and, before the beast could react, leaped up and punched it in the head!
Bang!
The roar of the bear-man monster came to an abrupt halt after it was punched on the head!

It took two steps back, shook its slightly dizzy head, and after regaining consciousness, its huge bear paw swiftly slapped towards Shen Wenxing!
Shen Wenxing nimbly dodged.

The giant bear paw missed its target, cracking the hard rock as it struck, and then another bear paw swung back at it!

A hint of madness flashed in Shen Wenxing's eyes.

The bear-like monster in front of us seems to only have great strength and a basic understanding of sonic attacks; it has no other special abilities.

He wanted to test his strength against this bear-like monster and see if his Azure Dragon Force could withstand the beast's power.

hold head high!
The spiritual energy within his body was quickly mobilized to his right arm, and a phantom image of a dragon head glowing red extended from his elbow to his fist, firmly enveloping it!
Shen Wenxing stepped back, gathering all his strength, and delivered a powerful punch to the giant bear paw of the human-bear demon beast!
boom!
puff!
Two completely asymmetrical arms collided!
At the same time as the explosion occurred, a large amount of blood gushed out instantly!

The bear-man monster let out a shrill scream and instinctively swung its other paw at Shen Wenxing!

Because its bear paw had been smashed through by Shen Wenxing!

"Watch out, Stone!"

Just as the bear-like monster's other paw was about to strike Shen Wenxing's back, Huang Qingzhou quickly shouted a warning.

However, Shen Wenxing did not dodge. Instead, he mobilized the power of his internal energy and blood, allowing it to permeate the flesh and bones of his back!

Bang!
A huge bear paw slammed down on its back, and the terrifying force shattered the rocks beneath its feet through its body!

Huang Qingzhou's expression was solemn. He was about to rush over to help when he suddenly noticed that Shen Wenxing's body was still standing upright amidst the scattering snow mist.

The bear-like monster was also stunned.

Clearly, they couldn't understand how their opponent could remain unharmed after they struck him with their palm.

Having withstood the attack, and only experiencing a shock to his blood and qi, Shen Wenxing gained a certain understanding of his physical strength.

Wei Qiuling said that body cultivation is a cultivation method created by the ancient human ancestors after observing ferocious beasts. The purpose is to cultivate one's body to be as terrifying as a ferocious beast.

The human-bear demon beast's cultivation level is now similar to his, and the fact that he was able to withstand one of its attacks proves that his physical cultivation is quite good.

After roughly assessing his own physical strength, he didn't intend to waste time with this beast and directly punched the bear-man monster in the stomach!

The abdomen is the softest spot for most creatures. If even the bear paws of the human-bear monster couldn't withstand his punch, you can imagine what his belly must be like.

The force of the Azure Dragon pierced through the abdomen of the bear-man monster and emerged from its spine.

The bear-man monster let out a miserable howl, and its huge body staggered back a few steps before crashing to the ground.

Seeing that the monster had been dealt with, Huang Qingzhou and the other two rushed over.

After witnessing Shen Wenxing's battle with the bear-man monster, Zhao Jinhu and Liu Fang stared at him as if he were a monster. They imagined countless scenarios of Shen Wenxing outwitting and outfighting the bear-man monster, ultimately defeating it.

But no one ever imagined that a human could kill such a colossal creature with just his fists!
Is that human being?
"Brother Jinhu, where did you find this beast?"

Shen Wenxing wiped the blood off his face, grabbed a handful of snow, rubbed his hands clean, and asked.

Zhao Jinhu realized what was happening, looked around, and said, "It's in that cave over there."

"Old Liu and I saw the footprints this guy left in the snow, so we put a big animal trap at the entrance of the cave."

Shen Wenxing glanced in the direction he was pointing and nodded slightly.

"Father-in-law, you and Liu Fang should find some people to move the monster's corpse down the mountain."

"Brother Jin Hu, take me to see this beast's den."

Shen Wenxing pulled the spear out of the rock and spoke.

"Be careful," Huang Qingzhou instructed before leaving with Liu Fangxian.

Zhao Jinhu led Shen Wenxing quickly to the cave where they had ambushed the bear-man monster. Looking at the animal trap that had been bent into a stiff shape, Zhao Jinhu said, "This is it!"

Shen Wenxing nodded and carefully approached the cave, unable to resist covering his mouth and nose.

The cave reeked of a strong, pungent, fishy stench that made one want to vomit.

However, he also sensed a fluctuation of spiritual energy amidst the strong stench!
"really!"

When he saw the bear-man monster, he felt that the beast must have become a monster by chance due to the revival of spiritual energy or some other opportunity.

The spiritual energy emanating from the cave now seems to confirm his idea.

"Brother Jin Hu, let's go in and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jinhu hurriedly took out a tinderbox from his pocket, blew on it, and followed Shen Wenxing deeper into the cave.

The cave sloped downwards, and not far inside, Zhao Jinhu almost tripped over something.

He shone the tinderbox at his feet and was immediately terrified, turning pale.

What tripped him was a human skull!
What frightened him was not the skull, but the dense, unfathomably thick layer of white bones beneath it!
Some are human, and some are animal.

"Just how much bloodshed has this beast committed?"

Zhao Jinhu muttered something and hurriedly caught up with Shen Wenxing.

The two brothers groped around inside for a quarter of an hour, and then a three-way intersection appeared in front of them.

Zhao Jinhu held up the tinderbox in his hand, looked around, and didn't know which way to go.

But this did not stump Shen Wenxing. He only needed to release his divine sense slightly to sense the source of the spiritual energy, and he was able to determine that it was coming from the left.

"This way."

Leading Zhao Jinhu, they continued to move to the left. After a short while, the cave became somewhat narrow.

Is there no road left?

The light from the tinderbox was rather dim, and Zhao Jinhu looked ahead and asked.

Shen Wenxing didn't speak, but reached out and touched the hard rock wall around him, then picked up a bluish-gray stone from the ground.

"Brother Jin Hu".

Zhao Jinhu walked over holding a tinderbox. Seeing the bluish-gray stone in his hand, he asked curiously, "What is this?"

Shen Wenxing shook his head slightly; he didn't recognize the thing either.

I just felt that there was a faint spiritual energy emanating from this bluish-gray stone.

I tried to squeeze it, but found that the bluish-gray stone was very hard.

"Could it be ore?"

Zhao Jinhu suddenly spoke up: "I've seen people smelt iron; they use a kind of red stone."

Ore?
Shen Wenxing examined the stone in his hand and thought to himself.

If this is ore, it is certainly not ordinary ore; it is very likely ore used to refine magical artifacts of immortals.

"Brother Jin Hu, give me a tinderbox."

Shen Wenxing took the tinder from Zhao Jinhu and gently tossed it forward.

Using the faint light of the tinderbox, he saw many of these bluish-gray ores in the narrow cave ahead.

Besides the ore, I also vaguely saw something that looked like a spirit crystal!

Shen Wenxing was secretly pleased. He put the bluish-gray ore in his hand into his pocket, turned to Zhao Jinhu and said, "Let's go back. Don't tell anyone about this place."

Zhao Jinhu nodded.

The two brothers left the cave in the dark.

After returning to Zhao Shuan's location, they learned that the monster's corpse had been transported down the mountain. Shen Wenxing said goodbye to Huang Qingzhou and Zhao Shuan and left ahead of time.
