Chapter 20: Sky Swallowing Toad

A pack of gray-black wolves appeared, and blue vines as thick as tree trunks sprang up from the ground, instantly entangling them in place.

"Ha! Watch this." At that moment, Xiao Wu also began her attack. She jumped lightly, performing several beautiful flips in the air, and in the blink of an eye, she landed among the wolves. With a powerful kick, one of the wolves was sent flying, unable to get up for a long time.

"Everyone get out of the way, watch me!" At this time, Hu Jiu finally accumulated his hammer technique to the eighty-first strike. With a loud shout, he merged with the hammer and smashed toward the wolf pack at lightning speed.

Boom!

The ground trembled as Hu Jiu's iron hammer struck the wolf pack like a cannonball.

In an instant, blood and flesh flew among the wolves, and dust rose from the ground.

When the dust settled, what appeared before Tang San and Xiao Wu was a huge pit, and the wolf pack was no longer there; only some severed limbs and bits of flesh could be seen in the dirt.

"Xiao Jiu, you, you can't use this hammer technique on me in the future!" Xiao Wu, standing outside the pit, swallowed hard, carefully reflecting on whether she had bullied Hu Jiu during this time.

After some contemplation, she realized that she might be in a bit of danger!

"Haha, don't worry! You're so cute; how could I possibly hammer you?" Hu Jiu laughed as he looked at the frightened Xiao Wu. Did she not realize that even if he wanted to hammer her, he wouldn't have the chance to use the Disorder Splitting Winds hammer technique?

"I didn't expect the Disorder Splitting Winds hammer technique to unleash such great power. I'm afraid even my dad isn't as formidable as Xiao Jiu!" Tang San, in the distance, was taken aback. Hu Jiu's hammer technique was taught by him, and he hadn't anticipated that this technique, meant for forging, would possess such immense power.

"Xiao Jiu, your Disorder Splitting Winds hammer technique has reached a realm of perfection, exuding the demeanor of a master. I'm afraid even my dad, who taught us, didn't expect this technique to be so powerful!"

At that moment, Tang San felt he shouldn't focus solely on the Tang Sect techniques; he needed to practice the Disorder Splitting Winds hammer technique as well. After all, his second Martial Spirit was a hammer. If he could cultivate the Disorder Splitting Winds hammer technique to Xiao Jiu's level and then use it with his Martial Spirit, how much power would that have!

"What Disorder Splitting Winds hammer technique? Isn't that just a forging technique?"

His acting talent was so deeply ingrained that it couldn't be changed.

"Yes, that's the Disorder Splitting Winds hammer technique, but I only heard that name from others. I'll ask Dad about it when I get home," Tang San replied, nodding.

"Hey, who cares if it is or not? Let's just call it that. I didn't expect it to have such great power. Once we have our break, I'll definitely buy two jars of good wine to thank Uncle Tang Hao," Hu Jiu said, his face beaming, acting as if it were all real.

"Turns out Xiao San can use this hammer technique too! Why have I never seen you use it?" Xiao Wu asked curiously from the side.

Tang San: "Uh!"

Could he really say that his Disorder Splitting Winds hammer technique could only swing sixty-four times in a row?

"Xiao San, come and see what kind of Spirit Beast this is. Why can't we avoid them?" In the end, it was still Hu Jiu who came to Tang San's rescue.

"This is a Shadow Wolf; it's definitely them. This type of Spirit Beast has an extremely keen sense of smell. Even from a mile away, they can identify their prey through scent. It seems we've been targeted as their hunting prey," Tang San said, carefully observing the Shadow Wolf that Xiao Wu had kicked away at the beginning.

"It looks like we need to be more cautious in our future actions. If there are other Spirit Beasts with this ability, we definitely won't be able to escape," Hu Jiu said, a hint of vigilance flashing in his eyes. Luckily, this time they only encountered ten-year-old Spirit Beasts. If they had been a hundred years old, they might have been in danger.

"Hmm, it's good to be careful," Tang San nodded, but he wasn't actually worried. In the Spirit Hunting Forest, a hundred-year-old Spirit Beast was already the most powerful. Such Spirit Beasts couldn't possibly live in packs, especially since this place was raised by the empire.

Of course, he wouldn't tell Hu Jiu this, as he didn't want him to let his guard down.

During the next part of their journey, they didn't encounter any Spirit Beasts that could detect them. After two hours of walking, the three finally arrived at their destination.

"I hear frogs croaking over there. Let's go check it out; it might be the Sky Swallowing Toad," Hu Jiu said, moving his ears and listening intently to confirm.

The three exchanged glances, excitement flashing in their eyes.

"Let's go take a look."

Quietly, they moved in the direction Hu Jiu indicated.

Parting a patch of wild grass, they finally saw their target.

"That's right, this is the Sky Swallowing Toad, but I don't know how many old it is." Without needing Tang San's confirmation, Hu Jiu had already recognized the Spirit Beast in front of him.

"Yes, it really is the Sky Swallowing Toad. Looking at the patterns on its back, it should have about thirty years of cultivation—too weak, not suitable for Xiao Jiu to absorb," Tang San also took a glance but quickly shook his head. Xiao Jiu's first Spirit Ring needed to be at least around ninety years old.

That was the minimum he could accept. As a brother, he wouldn't just stand by and let Hu Jiu give up his future.

"Well, we've already entered the territory of the Sky Swallowing Toad. I've memorized the scent of this type of Spirit Beast; follow me, there are still a few more ahead," Hu Jiu nodded. He also didn't want such a weak Spirit Beast as his Spirit Ring.

After quietly locating several more Sky Swallowing Toads, they found that none met their requirements; the strongest was only eighty years old, which was still too low.

"Everyone be careful. If we go further, we'll be close to the center of the forest, and there may be powerful Spirit Beasts around," Hu Jiu said, sensing something vaguely, though it was still too far away to be clear.

"Understood!" Tang San and Xiao Wu felt a shiver in their hearts. They had already verified Hu Jiu's perception abilities during this journey and had no doubts about his judgment.

As they moved forward slowly, after a while, Hu Jiu suddenly looked pleased. "Found it! The Sky Swallowing Toad ahead definitely has over ninety years of cultivation; I can feel it."

"That's great! Let's hurry!" Xiao Wu whispered excitedly. After such a long time, they had finally found their target.

"That Sky Swallowing Toad is just ahead. Xiao San, wait for a moment and use Blue Silver Grass to ambush it and trap it."

"Xiao Wu, it will be up to you next. Once Xiao San traps it, use the waist bow to bring it to me."

"And I will prepare my big move here." With a faint smile, Hu Jiu quickly arranged the strategy.

"Okay!" Tang San and Xiao Wu had no objections. If they followed Hu Jiu's method, they could perfectly ambush the Sky Swallowing Toad.

"Let's move!"

As soon as Hu Jiu finished speaking, Tang San's feet moved, darting forward like a wisp of green smoke.

At the same time, Xiao Wu was equally swift, performing a graceful flip and leaping onto the treetops, quickly bounding away.

Meanwhile, Hu Jiu gripped his hammer and began to swing it in circles, generating a whistling sound around his body, as if he had gone mad.
