Chapter 60 (1/2)

The Brown Earth Bear quivered for a while before charging.

Ou Yangming made the shocking discovery that its injuries had not recovered, and it was still bleeding. Despite that, its movements were not affected by its injuries, and it was much faster than when it went wild earlier.

“Split up, let’s go!” Yu Hailiang’s voice echoed in the dense forest as he ran away quickly.

Jiang Chengwei stomped his foot. “Let’s go!”

Subsequently, all archers escaped as n.o.body dared to stay. Even if someone noticed that Ou Yangming was nowhere to be found, n.o.body dared to bring it up.

The others who were surrounding the Brown Earth Bear earlier turned around to escape with all their might. Perhaps they were all hoping that the brown bear would pursue someone else.

If two armies were battling, Yu Hailiang would never abandon his team to escape.

However, they were currently up against a mad half-spirit beast that had even stimulated the Blood Meridian Power. Compared to the Brown Earth Bear, they were just like defenseless ants that could be trampled over easily.

One of the regulations in the military camp was that if something like this happened, soldiers must split up to escape instead of putting up a desperate fight. The further they were from each other, the more the time gained for their comrades. On the contrary, they were foolish if they stayed to resist the half-spirit beast.

Therefore, everyone dispersed and escaped without any hesitation once they confirmed that the Brown Earth Bear had incited the Blood Meridian Power.

Nevertheless, the brown bear was extremely violent at the moment, and it hated the humans that encircled him, hence it was not going to let them leave easily.

“Pow…”

A soldier who was escaping turned pale when the Brown Earth Bear swung its paw, so he raised his s.h.i.+eld hopelessly. The s.h.i.+eld could not withstand the giant paw at all, thus the man was instantly crushed into meat paste.

Following that, the brown bear sped up to catch up to another person, and the person’s head was crushed when it slammed it with its paw.

Ou Yangming breathed deeply then held it in, not moving an inch.

He felt regretful. If the powerful Brown Earth Bear noticed him, he would definitely be dead.

The brown bear then caught up to another four soldiers by moving faster, and it killed them with its paw too. Ou Yangming witnessed everything clearly through the Vision attribute.

Just as he thought that the Brown Earth Bear was going to keep exerting its invincible might to kill more soldiers, the big fellow swayed then collapsed to the ground with its head first.

Ou Yangming was stunned, but he dared not move an inch. He looked at the brown bear quietly, and heard his inner voice.

‘Is this fella dead?’

It was true that it became unparalleled after it awakened the Blood Meridian Power, but it was hurt by three explosive arrows before that.

Additionally, the explosive arrows were covered in plenty of Bewitching Gra.s.s.

After a moment of hesitation, Ou Yangming gritted his teeth and climbed down the tree before going roughly ten meters behind the Brown Earth Bear. He picked up a stone from the ground, then threw it hard at the beast.

Although he lent his military saber to Yan Haobo, his equipment set had 7 points of Power in total. The stone was thrown with force at the brown bear, but it did not react to it at all.

Ou Yangming was delighted, but he did not act rashly. He retrieved his dagger.

The weapon also had the explosive skill, and it was a High Grade Rank Five. When he turned his wrist to throw the dagger, it exploded on the Brown Earth Bear’s body, which resulted in new wounds.

Even then, the brown bear did not move.

Ou Yangming was finally relieved. The beast could have faked its death when the stone hit it earlier, but it was impossible for it to remain unmoving when it was attacked by an explosive weapon.

Next, Ou Yangming approached the Brown Earth Bear. Upon seeing the carca.s.s that had the size of a giant as compared to his body size, his palm began sweating.

Nonetheless, he knew that time was precious at the moment.

Yu Hailiang and the others escaped as hard as they could without wanting to be left behind, but they would soon realize what happened, and would return to take a look.

Ou Yangming retrieved another dagger.

By using his Military Fire, he attached the Devouring attribute on it.

Afterward, he stabbed the dagger into the Brown Earth Bear’s biggest wound.

If the beast’s body was undamaged, Ou Yangming could not have even cut its skin apart with the dagger. After all, the dagger was not a military saber, and the might that could be unleashed by them in a fight were not the same.

Since the brown bear was already terribly wounded, he could stab it with his dagger easily.

At the next moment, an unimaginable, enormous power gushed into Ou Yangming’s body.

‘Oh G.o.d, what kind of power is this!’ Ou Yangming s.h.i.+vered and widened his eyes. He clearly felt that the power that he was absorbing was completely different from the ones in the past.

He had absorbed many things with the Devouring attribute such as humans, domestic pigs, and different kinds of ferocious beasts, but none of them gave him this feeling.

The essential Qi in his body began circulating smoothly, and before long, he felt that his Dantian Light became brighter.
