Chapter 32 - The Zi Fu Level Xiong Beast (2/2)

It was a black panther that was about two meters long with sharp claws and teeth. Its black fur acted as the best camouflage in the night and it stared at both of them with a coldness in its eyes. It let out a soft roar and its sharp saber-tooth was protruding out from its mouth.

“Be careful, it’s a Night Panther. Just look at it, it’s a Zi Fu level Xiong Beast! How could there be a Zi Fu level Xiong Beast here?”

Mu Feng’s face sank immediately and he gripped harder on the knife in his hand.

The beast in front of him wasn’t a Man Beast, it was a Xiong Beast that had managed to cultivate Vitality.

The power of a Xiong Beast and a powerful Man Beast are two different concepts.

Mu Kuang was also slightly amazed. He clenched his fist and felt that his punch was much stronger than before. He actually managed to send a Zi Fu level Xiong Beast flying with just one punch.

Both of them retreated and observed the black panther vigilantly. At the same time, the panther was also observing both of them.

It was searching for food in the forest quite far away from them but it was attracted by the aroma of meat.

This happened due to Mu Feng’s lack of experience in jungle survival.

“Brother Feng, what now?”

Mu Kuang asked while holding a knife in his hand.

“We will never outrun it, so we can only attack. Later, we will attack from both sides and we will attack it simultaneously. We will focus on attacking its eyes and legs, and as long as it suffers heavy injuries in these two areas, it will be easy for us to deal with it.”

“Okay!”

Roar…!

Just when Mu Feng finished his sentence, the Night Panther let out a roar and pounced on Mu Kuang. It was smart and had sensed that Mu Kuang had a higher amount of Vitality, so it decided to finish off Mu Kuang first.

Both of them darted to both sides at the same time. Mu Kuang did a donkey flip and evaded the attack. After dodging the attack, Mu Feng balanced himself and struck down directly onto the Night Panther’s skull. (EN: A donkey flip is when you do a backflip, but halfway through your hands touch the ground to propel you back onto your feet. In the future, I’ll be adding notes to describe terms that I believe to be more uncommon amongst English speakers.)

The Night Panther leaped away agilely, and his strike landed on the ground.

Swoosh!

Just when it leaped away, Mu Kuang also struck down towards the panther. The timing of the strike came just in time and the Night Panther didn’t manage to dodge it.

However, at the same time, the Night Panther’s claws were shining with a black light–it was its Vitality!

It pounced on Mu Kuang’s knife and made a clanging noise. The powerful force pushed away Mu Kuang’s knife and it gave a swipe of its other claw.

Rip!

The swipe of its claw was swift and powerful. The claw that was six-inches long ripped apart Mu Kuang’s chest.

Khakk!

Mu Kuang let out a scream and kept on retreating. The swipe of its claw left four bloody gashes on his chest. Blood dripped out and his rib bones and flesh were exposed.

“Ah!”

Mu Feng covered his chest and it was so painful that his face turned white. The Night Panther pounced on Mu Kuang once more.

“Tong Mai Punch!”

In the meantime, Mu Feng who struck nothing didn’t retreat either. He clenched his fist, concentrated his Vitality from his meta-pulses into his fist and punched forward, making a loud noise.

Bang!

The punch landed directly on the Night Panther’s skull, causing it to whine and fall to the side.

Ha!

Without focusing on the pain, Mu Kuang also swung his knife at the panther.

However, the panther dodged away agilely, and at the same time, it concentrated a beam of black-colored light in its mouth and pounced on Mu Kuang once more!
