Chapter 103 – The Earth Bear King’s True Strength (1/2)
After communicating difficultly with the little fellow, Yang Ye finally understood why the little fellow had given up. It really couldn’t be helped this time because even if the little fellow didn’t give up, then he would.
Because the ident.i.ty of this Earth Bear King wasn’t ordinary at all!
The Earth Bear King wasn’t a native resident of Death Mountain Range, and it was from the Darkbeast Empire at the center of the Grand Myriad Mountains. There was an enormous empire in the Grand Myriad Mountains, and that empire was filled with Darkbeasts while there were no humans there at all. Moreover, the Darkbeast Empire had an extremely complete system. No matter if it was in terms of political affairs or military affairs, the Darkbeast Empire was extremely complete.
To put it simply, the Earth Bear King was a soldier sent over by the Darkbeast Empire to guard Death Mountain Range and prevent humans from entering it without permission. If Yang Ye killed the Earth Bear King, then he would suffer the vengeance of the Darkbeast Empire. Yang Ye was unable to endure the consequences of this, and this was the reason why the little fellow had given up. Moreover, if the Earth Bear King followed by Yang Ye’s side, then it would be deserting its position, and the punishment was being skinned alive and having its Inner Core dug out.
To put it in an even simpler manner, it was impossible for this peak King Rank Darkbeast to follow by Yang Ye’s side!
Yang Ye felt that if it wasn’t because of the Earth Bear King’s ident.i.ty, then it was very likely for the Earth Bear King to follow by his side. Or to put it more precisely, it was very likely for the Earth Bear King to follow by the little fellow’s side.
Yang Ye faintly had the feeling that the Earth Bear King was extremely respectful towards the little fellow. This sort of respect was unlike the respect Grey and Silver displayed which was respect out of fear, and this was true respect that came from the heart. This caused Yang Ye to be even more curious about the little fellow’s ident.i.ty.
No matter what, it was impossible for him to subdue this Darkbeast.
However, Yang Ye wasn’t really disappointed. It was lucky if he succeeded, and it was fate if he didn’t. This was Yang Ye’s character.
Even though he was unable to subdue the Earth Bear King, it didn’t stop Yang Ye from forming a good relations.h.i.+p with it. Of course, the Earth Bear King mainly did it out of consideration for the little fellow.
Under Yang Ye’s request, the Earth Bear King agreed to fight Yang Ye. However, the contempt in its eyes wasn’t really concealed. If it wasn’t out of consideration for the violet mink, the expression in the Earth Bear King’s eyes would probably not be contempt but disregard instead.
Yang Ye didn’t mind the Earth Bear King’s contempt. He understood the lay of survival in the Grand Myriad Mountains, and only a formidable strength could make the Earth Bear King treat him with respect.
Yang Ye and the Earth Bear King’s figures could be said to be two extremes. Yang Ye seemed to be truly too tiny before the Earth Bear King’s enormous figure.
This time, Yang Ye didn’t utilize his fist to go head-on against the Earth Bear King. Because the Earth Bear King’s strength was absolutely not something he could go against. Moreover, there was absolutely no need to do that as it was even better to use the Earth Bear King to temper his sword technique!
The Earth Bear King gazed at Yang Ye yet didn’t make a move. It was waiting for Yang Ye to attack.
Yang Ye didn’t waste his breath. The Profound Energy in his body surged before a strand of golden light suddenly erupted from his sword, and then he slashed his sword towards the Earth Bear King from afar. A strand of golden Profound Energy emanated a sharp whistle as it tore through the air, and it shot explosively towards the Earth Bear King.
A wisp of surprise flashed in the Earth Bear King’s eyes when it saw the golden Profound Energy shoot explosively towards it, and then it raised its paw to block it.
Bang!
An explosion resounded on the battlefield!
The golden Profound Energy was unable to pierce through the Earth Bear King’s paw, yet it pierced open a b.l.o.o.d.y hole on its paw!
The Earth Bear King’s gaze became serious when it saw the b.l.o.o.d.y hole on its p.a.w.n, and the contempt from before had vanished.
When he saw the Energy Split Sword Technique was unable to inflict any material harm to the Earth Bear King, Yang Ye took a deep breath before he stopped holding back. His Sword Intent surged out and enveloped the Earth Bear King.
The Earth Bear King’s pupils constricted when it sensed Yang Ye’s Sword Intent, and it didn’t dare to continue being careless or look down upon Yang Ye at all. The imposing aura within its body surged out like tidewater to resist Yang Ye’s Sword Intent.
Yang Ye suddenly stomped with his right foot, and then his figure shot out explosively. He swiftly slashed the sword in his hand at the Earth Bear King, causing a strand of golden sword qi to leave the sword and shoot explosively at the Earth Bear King.
It didn’t dodge, and it was unable to dodge. Just like how it had dealt with the sword qi from before, it swiftly slapped its enormous paw at Yang Ye’s sword qi.
Bang!
The sword qi dispersed, yet another b.l.o.o.d.y hole had appeared on its enormous paw, and that hole was even larger and deeper than the one from before.
Yang Ye didn’t stop. After he’s witnessed the Earth Bear King’s strength, he didn’t fight the Earth Bear King in close-quartered combat, and he ceaselessly attacked it with strands of sword qi while moving around in the surroundings.
Even though the sword qi wasn’t unable to cause any material harm to it, it wasn’t too bad. After fighting for an hour and beneath the envelopment of his Sword Intent, those strands of sword qi had already pierced opened a few tens of thousands of b.l.o.o.d.y holes.
