”Damn it, this Zi Chen is actually lying to me!”
In the valley, Zhao Can's flustered and exasperated curses sounded out.
A clear and cold fragrance filled the valley. This was the smell of a Chinese sage root. Reaching there, Zhao Can saw Chinese sage root, it was like a glacial lotus, pure white and flawless, quietly growing in the valley.
Seeing Chinese sage root, he also saw ice bear. But... ice bear s were not one, but two.
Previously, he and Zi Chen had spent the equivalent of one zhenqi Pill to get the Bewitching Powder, but it was only enough to bewitch a single ice bear. Yet, two ice bear appeared in front of Zhao Can, causing him to be surprised and angry.
In the cold winter, ice bear were usually sleeping, and these two ice bear were lying right next to them. Although Zhao Can and the others were very careful, they still woke up the ice bear.
The two ice bear were both Grade Five Vicious Beast s, which were equivalent to a human being's strong person at the fifth level of zhenqi. Their skin was rough and their flesh was thick. Their true combat strength surpassed humans of the same level.
All three of them were at the fourth level of zhenqi. Under normal circumstances, they would only be defeated and destroyed if they fought against a single ice bear. In the cold winter, the ice bear's reactions were slightly slow. In addition to the Bewitching Powder, the three of them could still fight with the two ice bear for a while.
”Roar!”
The three-meter-tall ice bear was awakened from its slumber, and it let out an angry roar. The black fur all over his body was as sharp as steel. He raised his palm-leaf fan like bear paws and mercilessly swatted at the three people.
”Bang!”
Under the attack of the bear's paw, a large stone was instantly shattered into pieces.
The three of them flew back with unsightly expressions on their faces. Their bodies hadn't been refined to a state that was even harder than stone. Facing the attacks of two ice bear, they could only rely on their movement techniques to dodge.
”Hurry up and use the Bewitching Powder.”
A fierce wind blew, the young man dodged the ice bear's attack and shouted to Zhao Can.
”Bang!”
Another boulder had been shattered by the bear's paw, and a strong gale started to blow through the valley. Facing the attacks of two ice bear, the three of them were quickly forced out of the valley.
”Damn it, how could this be!”
Zhao Can cursed, he was extremely unwilling, but he could only take out the Bewitching Powder. His feet moved, and the third-rate Cultivation Methods appeared under him. It directly passed through the attack from the two bear paws, arriving in front of the ice bear in a flash, and ruthlessly sprinkled the Bewitching Powder in front of him.
The Bewitching Powder was colorless and odorless. It smoothly arrived in front of the ice bear and was sucked into its mouth.
The figure of the ice bear could not help but sway.
Zhao Can took the opportunity to retreat.
”No, if it's a ice bear, it would definitely be enchanted, but two won't work. We have to think of something else. ”
After scattering the Bewitching Powder, Zhao Can looked anxious when he saw that the ice bear did not collapse.
”What can we do? Can it be that we can kill the ice bear?” One of the youths said in a bad mood. There was already a bloody wound on his face, caused by the tip of his claw.
Zhao Can gritted his teeth and said: ”Both of you hold the ice bear back while I go in to get the Chinese sage root. After that, we will leave together.”
”Bullshit!”
Right after Zhao Can finished speaking, a furious voice sounded out, ”We brothers are not idiots like Zi Chen, would we believe you? If you want to drag ice bear, you drag it out. We brothers can go in and retrieve the Chinese sage root by ourselves. ”
”No, I found this Chinese sage root!” Zhao Can said coldly.
”If it's no good, then let's go, at worst I'll just go back and find Senior Brother Wang Xiong.” The other youth sneered.
Their intellect was terrifyingly high.
Although their bodies were unsteady, their attacks were still sharp. The three of them had no choice but to retreat once more after a discussion, then the three of them brought the ice bear and left the valley. Boom!
In the distance, behind the back of a mountain rock, Zi Chen quietly watched as the three of them brought the ice bear away.
Discarding the wrong trust in Zhao Can, Zi Chen appeared to be very calm in all other aspects. When he saw Zhao Can again, his eyes were very calm, without any other emotions.
Because there was no need, he, who had died once, had long since treated Zhao Can as someone who had to be killed.
After the three of them had completely disappeared into the distance, Zi Chen appeared from behind the boulder.
Without the zhenqi, footwork could not be used. Everywhere Zi Chen passed, two rows of deep footprints were left on the ground. However, he was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he had arrived at the edge of the valley.
He naturally knew what the other three were thinking, it was nothing more than luring the stupid ice bear far away and rushing back at extreme speed.
With his feet stepping on the snow, making popping sounds, Zi Chen quickly scurried into the valley. He saw a Chinese sage root that was half covered by snow growing on the surface of the ice.
The Chinese sage root was sparkling and translucent, like a snow lotus, it emitted a clear and cold fragrance, and even though it was tens of metres away, Zi Chen could still feel the extremely dense spirit energy within the Chinese sage root.
With three steps, Zi Chen arrived in front of the Chinese sage root.
”It's you little thing that almost caused me to die.”
Zi Chen looked at the Chinese sage root in front of him, his expression extremely complicated, but he did not hesitate and immediately squatted down to grab the Chinese sage root.
Zhao Can and the others could come at any time, so there wasn't much time left for Zi Chen.
After the Yi Meridian Purification, even though there was no zhenqi, Zi Chen's strength had increased by a lot. Without expending much effort, he managed to grab the Chinese sage root.
”Get it!”
