Chapter 159: The Great Slumber Bear (1/2)

Lin Mu could not begin to even imagine such a being. The strongest beast he had seen up until now was the Alpha steel back wolf, of course not including senior Xukong. But even then, looking at that bear beast it did not seem as if it was that strong.

Now that Lin Mu thought about it, the aura that he could feel coming off of it was weak. It almost seemed as if it was injured.

”But still senior, why would the ward activate, if it's weak now?” Lin Mu questioned.

”That is because of that beast's bloodline. That bear beast you saw there is something unique. Even for me, I have only seen a few of its kind before, and they are certainly not residents of a world such as this. A world like this cannot even handle the cultivation of one such as it, a juvenile.” Xukong answered.

Lin Mu felt even more astonished as the situation was just getting more and more strange to him.

”A juvenile? Does that mean…” Lin Mu spoke and trailed off as he realized it.

”Yes, that bear beast… its a child,” Xukong spoke, confirming his doubts.

”But… but… if it's a child then is its cultivation really above the Immortal ascension realm?” Lin Mu questioned again.

”Yes, even a child of its species can be above the immortal Ascension realm when its born. Though this one has been weakened too much.” Xukong spoke in a slightly reminiscent tone.

”What is the name of the beast?” Lin Mu finally asked, realizing that he still did not know about the beast's name.

”That beast is called as the 'Great Slumber Bear'. It is a beast that can only be found in higher worlds and is immensely strong. So strong that even though this one does not have a high cultivation base, just its bloodline aura is enough to activate the ward I placed on you.

And let me tell you, if the ward had activated back then, while it would have scared the beast away, it would have also depleted more than half of the ward's energy.” Xukong answered.

Lin Mu felt a little terrified at this aspect. He had already heard from Senior Xukong that the ward was not permanent and would deplete its energy every time it was used. But senior Xukong had told him not to worry about it at that time and had told him that it would still last a long time.

But now that he heard there was something that could deplete more than half its energy, it just made him realize what a big waste that could be. Lin Mu then thought to the bloodline of the Great slumber bear. If just its bloodline was so strong, then what kind of bloodline ability did it have.

But Xukong seemed to have read Lin Mu's thoughts as he started explaining more about it before he even asked.
