Iya Continent: Card God

Within Sandell County, far from the county seat, in the northwest undeveloped land, dark forests.

After the grand auction, Lin Ta headed straight for the dark mountain forest to begin a new round of cultivation.

It was still about physical training to strengthen his body. Linta discovered that with each increase in physical strength, his mental power also improved significantly. However, the physical training became increasingly difficult.

Now that he was able to fight against bronze-level powerful magical beasts, the magical beasts in the unexplored areas were no longer sufficient for his cultivation. So he traveled to the northwest and came to the dark mountains and forests.

Here, there are a wide variety of magical beasts, ranging from bronze and silver to gold.

A hunt is taking place in a pine forest.

A mid-level Silver-rank Gray Demon Bear is fighting against several Moon Shadow Wolves.

This is purely a matter of nature's survival of the fittest; the Grey Bear needs to eat the Moonshadow Wolves for sustenance. And the Moonshadow Wolves need to kill the Grey Bear to become the wolf king of this area so that their pack can survive.

"Awooo!" "Roar!"

The Moonshadow Wolves were led by a low-ranking Silver-level wolf king and several high-ranking Bronze-level wolf subordinates. They surrounded the enemy in an orderly fashion and coordinated their attacks.

The Moonshadow Wolf's swift claws flashed past the Gray Demon Bear in the blink of an eye, striking its gray fur. However, the Gray Demon Bear's skin was thicker than expected, and its claws couldn't tear a single drop of flesh.

"Ow!"

The Grey Demon Bear began its counterattack, its massive body lunging at the Moon Shadow Wolf King.

The Moon Shadow Wolf King stood fearless in the face of the enemy and was also ready to retaliate.

Two fierce and deadly forces are about to collide.

Suddenly, a figure landed.

A person is just one person!

The human raised both arms, clenched his fists, and punched out.

"Bang! Bang!"

"Fist of the Battlefield!"

An extremely strong fist intent, accompanied by magical power, was unleashed, its force causing a shockwave.

The Grey Demon Bear and Moon Shadow Wolf were directly shaken by this force and retreated more than ten steps to the left and right.

The Moon Shadow Wolf's subordinates were all intimidated and dared not act recklessly.

"Finally, you've started this war! Come on! Attack me all at once!" said Linta, his clothes torn and his hair disheveled.

Lin Ta has been in this dark mountain forest for over a month. For the past month, he has been battling various magical beasts. But as the battles continued, Lin Ta felt it wasn't enough. If he could fight two silver-level magical beasts simultaneously, his training would be far more valuable.

However, monsters are not human. Fighting two types of monsters at the same time is quite troublesome.

But today, the day we've been waiting for has finally arrived.

The Grey Bear and Moonshadow Wolf were bewildered by the appearance of this human, but they weren't about to let him go.

"Roar!" "Awooo!"

Almost simultaneously, the Grey Demon Bear and the Moon Shadow Wolf attacked Linta.

The Grey Demon Bear is massive and powerful; its pace shakes mountains and rivers. A single strike from its powerful claws can tear apart giant trees, causing them to collapse with a deafening roar. The Moon Shadow Wolf's attacks are swift and elusive, like a fleeting shadow, capable of disemboweling an enemy without their knowledge.

The actions of the two were, in a sense, coordinated.

Linta was even more satisfied with this.

"Edivine!"

Linta's magic surged, and he unleashed the "Earth Vine" skill, which he had been practicing for a month.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the soil shattered, and thick vines, as thick as thighs, rose from the ground, densely packed, binding the gray demon bear as it departed.

The Grey Demon Bear was huge and burly. Faced with the swarm of earth vines, it had no way to escape and could only confront them head-on, swinging its powerful arms and claws to break and shatter the earth vines one by one.

At this moment, the Moonshadow Wolf had already rushed in front of Linta.

With sharp claws and a fierce mouth, it is extremely menacing.

"Iron Rhinoceros Charge!"

Linta instantly sprang into action, his body slamming forward, magic flowing through his body, seemingly accompanied by the shadow of an iron rhinoceros.

"Oh!"

The Moon Shadow Wolf directly clashed with Linta, who was using a charge attack.

He was directly struck by Linta's terrifying power, and with a scream, his body flew up, flying eight or nine zhang away.

"Ow!"

At this moment, the Grey Demon Bear had already shattered the earth vines and surged towards the Forest Tower.

The shadows concealed Linta, but Linta remained fearless, looking up into the distance.

At this moment, Linta did not seem to use any magical skills, but instead intended to fight against it with his own flesh and blood!

"Come!"

"Bang!" "Bang!"

The next scene shows Linta fighting the Grey Demon Bear monster with his bare hands.

The fierce attack of the bear's claws struck Linta's body, tearing his clothes. Linta did not retreat at all, but instead countered with a punch, striking his opponent's chest. The punch made a resounding hollow sound, and the fist dented into the flesh.

The Moonshadow Wolf's subordinates were horrified. In their eyes, humans were nothing more than fragile, easily defeated beings. But the humans before them were even more monstrous than magical beasts!

……

A few quarters of an hour later, the sounds of flesh and blood fighting in the dark forest were reduced to the sounds of panting and gasping.

Linta's body was bent over, blood dripping from it, as he looked down at the fallen Grey Demon Bear.

"Haha, I won."

Linta straightened his back, shrugged his shoulders, glanced at the still-standing Gray Demon Bear and Moon Shadow Wolf King, and then left.

Both of these silver-tier magical beasts have materials that can be sold. But this time, let's skip it.

Linta left the Kosong woods and returned to his dwelling.

A man-made burrow, topped with a wooden door made of wooden strips bound together, covered with withered branches and leaves. Linta had also smeared the area with pungent plant sap to ward off the keen-nosed magical beasts.

For the past month or so, I have been living here, practicing and training.

Now, it's about time.

Linta entered and began to absorb the magical power between heaven and earth.

The magic of the dark forest surged and flowed into the cave dwelling.

After an unknown amount of time, with a loud bang, the wooden door shattered, leaves flew into the sky, and an even stronger magical power was released.

Advanced, Mid-Silver Rank.

“Sigh…” Linta sighed and jumped out.

"Is this fast?" Linta muttered to himself.

For a normal magic cultivator, this is too fast; it's a level that only a very few geniuses on the continent of Iya can reach. However, for Linta, who breaks through using mental power cultivation, he cannot judge whether this is fast or not.

Anyway, this kind of cultivation is too life-consuming.

Fighting monsters to strengthen one's physique and improve mental power is practically a life-consuming form of training. Am I destined to rely on this method forever? Are there other ways? There must be…

"Forget it, let's go back. It's been a long time since I've been back to the city. I really miss the tavern's mixed dishes."

Linta, who used to look down on the world's ordinary cuisine, is now quite used to it.

As for continuing to cultivate deeper into the dark mountains and forests, there's no rush; they won't run away.

Linta looked at the cave dwelling, waved two fingers of magic, and the earth vines pushed out a huge cloth bag from below. Inside the bag were materials from the magical beasts hunted in the mountains and forests over the past month.

"I wonder how much it can sell for?"
