Mid-level fierce beast (2)

  Five figures quickly ran through the forest. As their footsteps landed, they stepped on the dead branches and leaves, making a slight cracking sound. When the wind blew, it dissipated into nothingness.

"The black-backed bear is a mid-level ferocious beast. Its strength is equivalent to a swordsman at the seventh level of the Sword Qi Realm. With the strength of the five of us, it will be difficult to take it down." Chu Mu pretended to be curious as he ran.

His eyesight was extraordinary. He could see that the cultivation of these four loose swordsmen were all below the seventh level of the Sword Qi Realm. The leader was probably at the sixth level of the Sword Qi Realm. As for the other three, they were at the fifth level of the Sword Qi Realm.

With such a combination of strength, it would be suicide to fight against a swordsman at the seventh level of the Sword Qi Realm. However, if they fought against a ferocious beast at the seventh level of the Sword Qi Realm, there was still some possibility. After all, ferocious beasts had very low intelligence.

"Sir, don't worry. We have long been prepared. We were just worried that something might happen, so we planned to find one more person. We didn't expect to meet you. The disciple of the Azure Edge Sword Sect made us very confident." The leader of the loose swordsmen gave a simple explanation while flattering Chu Mu. If it were other disciples, they would probably feel as if they were floating.

"It's good that you are prepared." Chu Mu didn't ask much about the preparation. His expression was a little profound. He knew that there was no such good thing in the world as giving him a Three Sun Fruit.

In the Illustrated Book of Hundred Herbs, the Three Sun Fruit was one of the spiritual herbs used to refine the Qi Breaking Pill. Taking it alone was several times more effective than the Qi Gathering Pill. Its value was extraordinary. This was also the reason why Chu Mu agreed. Moreover, the cultivation of these guys was not in his eyes at all.

"Sir, we don't know anything about you. Shouldn't you tell us what swordsmanship you are practicing?" Suddenly, a short young loose swordsman interrupted.

"I am practicing two swordsmanship. One is the entry level swordsmanship, and the other is the mid-level swordsmanship." Chu Mu said with an appropriate look of complacency and pride on his face.

"Mid-level swordsmanship!" The four swordsmen exclaimed in surprise. At the same time, they secretly looked at each other and saw a trace of excitement in each other's eyes.

"Sir, you are indeed worthy of being a disciple of the Azure Edge Sword Sect. You must be greatly valued by the sect. Otherwise, how could you have a middle tier sword technique to train in?" the leader of the scattered swordsmen, Liu Tao, said with a smile, trying to fish for information from Chu Mu.

"It's nothing. It's just that my talent in swordsmanship is outstanding, so an elder appreciates me." Chu Mu waved his hand and said. He wanted to keep a low profile but couldn't help feeling proud.

"I wonder to what extent have you cultivated your middle-level sword skills?" Liu Tao asked in a tone that contained a hint of amazement.

"I've basically mastered it. I can use the killing move, but I need a few breaths of time to prepare." Chu Mu looked as if he couldn't wait to tell all his secrets and show off in front of these swordsmen. He even pretended to sigh regretfully and said, "It's a pity that my Sword Qi cultivation is too low. I can only use one killing move. After using it, there won't be much Sword Qi left. So, once I use the killing move to attack the black-back bear, I won't have much fighting strength left."

"Don't worry, sir. The killing move of a mid-level sword skill is extremely powerful. Once it hits the black-back bear, even if it doesn't die immediately, it will definitely be seriously injured and lose the ability to fight." Liu Tao's eyes flashed with a touch of ecstasy, but he quickly suppressed it. However, his voice was still a little trembling because of excitement. "We will also protect you and let you recover your Sword Qi cultivation."

As he spoke, Liu Tao suddenly stretched out his hand to stop the crowd and glanced at the short young man.

The short young man walked forward with his back bent and took out something from the cloth bag at his waist. It was a black ball that emitted a sweet fragrance. Chu Mu looked pensive.

Immediately, the short young man hid behind a big rock and threw out the black ball the size of a fist. Not far behind the big rock, there seemed to be some movement. There was a low muffled roar, but Chu Mu and the others couldn't see it because of the big rock.

"That's the Killer Bee's honey. It's the black-back bear's favorite food. When the black-back bear sees the Killer Bee's honey, it won't think much and will eat it directly." The leader of the loose swordsmen explained in a low voice, "And we put a lot of anesthetic in that ball of honey. After eating it, within half an hour, the medicinal effect will be released. At that time, the black-back bear will be affected. Its movements will be slow and its reaction will be slow. Its strength will be reduced by at least 30%. At that time, we will create an opportunity for you. Your mid-level killing move can definitely hit the black-back bear."

When Chu Mu heard this, he immediately understood. Under the effect of the anesthetic, the black-back bear's strength would be reduced by 30%. They would be more confident in killing the black-back bear. As for why they didn't use poison, it was very simple. Once poison was used, the medicinal effect would remain in the black-back bear's body, causing it to lose its original value.

It should be known that the black-back bear was a mid-level fierce beast. The bear skin, bear paws, bear meat, bear bones, bear blood and so on could all be sold for a good price.

Soon, half an incense stick's time had passed.

"Let's do it. Your Excellency, please do your best." Liu Tao said. Soon after, a few people pulled out their swords and quickly rushed forward. Chu Mu also rushed forward. Jumping over a large rock, he saw an enormous grey bear lying on the ground. The fur on its back was black, covering its entire body from head to tail.

Chu Mu also saw that a few meters behind the black-back bear, there was a light red grass. Among the three leaves, there was a red fruit the size of a longan. It was very tempting. That was the Three Sun's Fruit.

The appearance of Liu Tao and the others, with their murderous aura, immediately startled the black-back bear.

"Roar …"

The Black Back Bear awoke and abruptly stood up. Its thick bear paws slapped the ground, causing it to vibrate like a drum. It was like a small hill, and its dark eyes let out an extremely savage and bloodthirsty glint. Its protruding mouth abruptly opened, and at Chu Mu and the others, it let out a thunderous roar. In an instant, it was as if the earth was shaking.

Such power made people's expression change.

"Kill!" Liu Tao shouted, holding his sword high with both hands, leaping up, a sword, as if splitting a mountain and splitting a stone, the momentum was overwhelming. The sword used by Liu Tao was different from the ordinary sword. It was longer, palm-wide, and looked heavier. Under the slash, the power was stronger.

The other three also rushed forward and attacked the black-back bear from the side.

Chu Mu did not directly attack, but stared at the black-back bear, observing its every reaction.

"Roar …" Seeing these little things, even daring to attack itself, the black-back bear was even angrier. Its small eyes were covered with a layer of bloody light. Like a human, it stood up, raised its thick bear paw, and slapped it hard. Like swatting a fly, it swatted at Liu Tao. This palm was too strong. If it hit the head, it would explode directly.

The wind whistled, and the huge wave came like a wave. Liu Tao's face changed greatly, and he twisted his wrist abruptly, and the big sword slashed at the black-back bear's huge paw.

With a bang, the sharpness of the big sword only left a faint white mark on the bear's paw, but Liu Tao was slapped to one side by the black-back bear's huge paw force.

The other three loose swordsmen rushed to the black-back bear's sides and performed swordsmanship from the sides and abdomen.

Three swords, three low-level swordsmanship killing moves, hit the black-back bear's body at the same time. Sword Qi crisscrossed, leaving wounds on the black-back bear's body, dripping with blood.

"Roar …" The black-back bear was furious. It raised the other bear paw. On the bear paw, there was a faint yellow luster. The paw slammed down as if it was swatting a bug.

"Retreat, it's Bear Fury!" Liu Tao quickly rolled two laps and got up. When he saw it, his face changed greatly and he roared.

Bear Fury, the black-back bear's beast skill, low-level. Its power was equivalent to a low-level swordsmanship killing move, but when it was used by a Stage 7 Sword Qi Realm black-back bear, its power was extraordinary.

With a bang, the earth shook and the ground shattered. A crater was directly blasted open. Sand and stones shot out like hidden weapons. The powerful impact caused the three loose swordsmen to fly back. One of them was unlucky enough to dodge a step too late and was swept by the attack. Half of his body was in intense pain, and blood wildly spurted out.

"Kill!" Liu Tao's face was filled with grief and indignation. He roared and slashed out with his sword. Under the big sword, a clear fierce tiger appeared. It was Tiger Roar Frenzy, and its power was even stronger than when Wng Lei used it.

The black-back bear, which had taken anesthetic, was much slower to react. It was immediately hit by the fierce tiger. With a bang, a wound appeared on its abdomen, and blood spurted out. The huge force caused the black-back bear to retreat two steps.

"Sir, why haven't you made your move yet?" Liu Tao's sword succeeded, but he quickly retreated. At the same time, he roared at Chu Mu.
