Chapter 144: Hidden Glances

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Watching as Lu Ming charged towards him, the Wolf Bear Ancestor’s heart was filled with worries.

It was a fact that this person’s level was low, but it was also a fact that he was strong.

Coupled with the fact that his fist would explode when he punched…

The Wolf Bear Ancestor vaguely felt that it seemed to have encountered a tough opponent this time.

However, after the worry, it was furious!

It had ruled over the Bear Mountain for so many years and no creature had ever been able to injure it!

It was much stronger than ordinary level 8 creatures. Even if it encountered some level 9 creatures, it still had the confidence not to be inferior!

It thought that this hunt would thoroughly be a feast and amus.e.m.e.nt, just like how it had fooled Bai Tianyu just now.

However, it did not expect someone to rashly appear and cripple one of its claws!

How could it tolerate this?

This was unbearable!!

Its beastly nature very quickly overwhelmed its rationality.

It darted out and came before Lu Ming again!

This time, the Wolf Bear Ancestor no longer used its claws to strike.

It switched to its most familiar and most lethal method—biting!

Its ma.s.sive head, 10 meters in diameter, pressed down fiercely on Lu Ming. Its huge mouth opened wide like an opened forging machine, with layers of sharp fangs resembling barbs.

The Wolf Bear Ancestor firmly believed that as long as it bit down, it would surely make this little fellow suffer a miserable death!

However, the Wolf Bear Ancestor’s actions amused Lu Ming…

I just blew off your claws, and now you’re sticking your head over.

Although the skull of this kind of canine-type exotic beast is very tough, it seems like you don’t take my perfect level Explosive Fist seriously, huh?

Clearly, the Wolf Bear Ancestor did not know what a perfect level Explosive Punch was.

But that was alright because it would find out very soon.

The battle between Lu Ming and the Bear Mountain Ancestor was undoubtedly the focus of the entire battlefield.

However, not everyone was concerned about the outcome of this battle.

This was because all the people from Nanxiang had confidence in Lu Ming when Brother Lu took action, success was practically guaranteed!

In the eyes of Huo Sheng, Duan Mei, w.a.n.g Xiong, and the others, the moment Lu Ming arrived, this beast tide was already on its last legs.

However, no one knew that not far from the ruins of the ancient city, another creature had a completely different view of the outcome of this battle.

In the distance, on a huge rock, two black-robed figures stood at the top of the huge rock, looking towards the direction of the ruins of the ancient city.

They had humanoid forms, but were taller than humans—at least two meters tall.

Due to their large black robes, other details were obscured, but one person appeared st.u.r.dy and slightly hunched, while the other was slender and had extremely long legs.

A pleasant voice came from the person with the long legs and black robe.

“Grandpa, can they survive this danger?”

The robust figure in the black robe, referred to as grandfather by the long-legged girl, looked solemn, and flickering specks of light could be seen in his eyes.

Soon, he frowned.

“It’s hard to say.”

The girl asked in confusion, “Why is it hard to say? I think that tall and strong man seems very powerful. As long as he defeats the big bear, the other wolf bears shouldn’t pose much of a threat, right?”

Grandpa shook his head and said, “The problem lies here. For this new generation tribulation bearers to survive this danger, it depends on whether that man can defeat the big bear.

“But that big bear is not simple…”

“It has dominated the Bear Mountain for a full 20 Black Mist years. Ordinary Level 8 creatures can’t encroach on such a large territory. I’ve observed that big bear before and discovered that it seemed to have had some fortuitous encounter, making its physical strength far surpa.s.s that of ordinary Level 8 creatures and only slightly inferior to Level 9 creatures.”

Perhaps intrigued by Lu Ming’s Explosive Fist just now, the long-legged girl retorted, “But that man isn’t weak either. He just injured one of the big bear’s claws.”

Grandpa said with a heavy tone, “That was the Explosive Fist.

“But you know the power of the Explosive Fist; its power is superficial. Being able to shatter the bear’s claw doesn’t mean he can shatter its head.

“It’s impossible to shatter the hardest skull of the Six-legged Wolf Bear with the Explosive Fist. Moreover, this Explosive Fist doesn’t have the effect of striking a target from afar; its force cannot penetrate the skull and directly disintegrate the bear’s brain tissue.

“In short… I don’t think they can survive this…”

With that said, Grandpa led his granddaughter and jumped down from the huge rock.

Looking at the route they were taking, they seemed to be heading to the ruins of the ancient city.

And their purpose in this trip…

“Should we save them? Grandpa?”

“Yes, I’m prepared to save them and do this new generation of Tribulation Transcenders a favor.”

The girl knew what a Tribulation Transcender was and what the new generation of Tribulation Transcenders represented.

The two of them could not help but speed up and prepare to enter at the right time to perfectly display the demeanor of their savior…

But the next second, the grandfather and granddaughter stopped in unison.

This was because the outcome of the battle between Lu Ming and the Wolf Bear Ancestor had already been decided!

It was just a simple punch.

At least in the eyes of Lu Ming and the Wolf Bear Ancestor, Lu Ming’s punch was really simple.

A simple uppercut…

This punch hit the side of the Wolf Bear Ancestor’s face before it had a chance to attack.

Compared to the big head, Lu Ming’s claypot-sized fist was like a small pebble.

The two collided.

Unexpectedly, there was no significant commotion.

Originally, the Wolf Bear Ancestor was already prepared to have its face shattered. Unexpectedly, Lu Ming’s punch was silent, like a lover’s caress…

“That’s it?”

With this thought in mind, it prepared to give Lu Ming a fatal blow!

However, it suddenly discovered that… its body could not move…

A weak force came from where Lu Ming had struck it just now.

Like a sinister venomous snake, it penetrated the skin, muscles, bones, and finally deep into the brain….

The next second, only Lu Ming and the Wolf Bear Ancestor could hear the sound of a “bang” exploding loudly.

It exploded in the mind of the Wolf Bear Ancestor!!

If someone could see through, he would witness a horrifying scene.

It was as if a bomb had been directly stuffed into the head of the Wolf Bear Ancestor and then detonated!

With the explosion, the Wolf Bear Ancestor’s brain instantly turned into a ball of sticky substance.

Blood vessels burst and its brain shattered. If the Wolf Bear Ancestor’s brain was originally a complete block of tofu, then the second after the explosion, its brain had already become a pile of smashed tofu pudding.

At the Mortal Realm stage, the brain was still the core and absolute vital point of the body.

At this stage of the force penetrating the brain, the Wolf Bear Ancestor’s brain lost the ability to control its body.

The moment its brain was blown apart, the Wolf Bear Ancestor had already died on the spot!

Its mountain-like body instantly collapsed and fell at Lu Ming’s feet.

Pale yellow liquid slowly flowed out of his facial features, making it look a little nauseating.

In short…

It died quite suddenly.

This suddenness made everyone fall silent.

Until the whimpers of the exotic beasts and the cheers of the humans erupted again.

In the distance, the grandfather and granddaughter also felt that it was quite sudden…

After a long silence, the long-legged girl suddenly spoke, “Didn’t you say that the force of the Explosive Fist couldn’t penetrate the skull?”

The grandfather’s lips were slightly parted, unsure how to explain—he had never seen anyone cultivate the Explosive Fist to perfection.

Wasn’t it better to spend that effort on cultivating a more powerful Source Power Skill?

Until the girl asked again, “Grandpa, what should we do now? Are we still going to see them?”

After thinking for a moment, grandfather gently shook his head.

“Let’s not go yet.”

Originally, they had planned to make a good impression—appearing as saviors would surely earn them a lot of goodwill.

Unfortunately, before the protagonists could appear, Lu Ming had already torn down the stage…

If they went now, the effect wouldn’t be good, and they might be seen as having ulterior motives by these humans.

The newcomers from Nanxiang would naturally be cautious.

“Let’s wait for another chance… opportunities will come.”

This was because danger was everywhere in the Black Mist Zone.

These new generation Tribulation Transcenders had no idea what kind of place they had come to.

Nor did they know what kind of ident.i.ty they possessed!

The black-robed person firmly believed that if he waited a little longer, he would surely find a chance to make a good impression..
