C9 Explosive Flying Bear

As they journeyed on, Lin Feng and his companions quickly reached the domain of Fallen Phoenix Slope.

"Damn, it's unbearably hot here!" Shi Po complained loudly, ripping open his collar in frustration.

"Shh!" Liu Yan reprimanded Shi Po with a glare. "Fallen Phoenix Slope isn't like other places; be careful, or you might draw the Demon King's attention!"

Shi Po chuckled sheepishly, scratching the back of his head in embarrassment.

"It's just Fallen Phoenix Slope. With me here, what's there to worry about?" Chen Hongyu said with a sneer, striding ahead of the group.

No sooner had he spoken than a massive figure loomed ahead.

A level six Demonic Beast, the Blazing Rhinoceros!

With a roar, the Blazing Rhinoceros detected the group's presence, exhaling twin streams of fire from its nostrils as its bell-sized eyes turned a fierce red.

Warriors and Demonic Beasts were sworn enemies, a hatred ingrained in their very marrow!

In an instant, the Blazing Rhinoceros's powerful hind legs shattered the earth, its hefty body charging at the group with surprising speed.

Chen Hongyu was the first to react, his face tensing as he quickly flicked his wrist, sending a dazzling flurry of sword blossoms into the air.

In a flash, streaks of crimson blood adorned the Blazing Rhinoceros's head!

The beast roared in pain, its fury intensifying. The horns atop its head shone with a blinding light, signaling its wrath.

"Die!" Chen Hongyu's face flushed as he summoned his spiritual power, his sword weaving a web of shadows that ensnared the Blazing Rhinoceros.

Bright red blood rained down, and within moments, the Blazing Rhinoceros's roars ceased.

With a thud, the massive body of the beast created a deep crater in the ground, its blood-red eyes slowly dimming.

"Chen Hongyu's talent is truly exceptional. To think his Spring Rain Sword Technique has already reached the Initial Stage," Liu Yan murmured in admiration.

She practiced the Spring Rain Sword Technique as well, which was as gentle as a drizzle yet unyielding, with an extraordinary lethal power.

"Humph! It's merely a level six demonic beast!" Chen Hongyu said arrogantly, striding confidently deeper into the wilderness.

Silently, Shi Po took out a Demon Stone and placed it into his carried bag.

Lin Feng shook his head at the sight. Chen Hongyu's execution of the Spring Rain Sword Technique was decent, but he hadn't grasped its true essence. When properly wielded, the Spring Rain Sword Technique would manifest a Sword Intent, enveloping the target in an inescapable mist, leaving them unable to live or find peace in death.

Though he was somewhat stronger than an average practitioner at the Eighth Level of the Qi Sea Stage, he was far from a prodigy. His arrogance was excessive!

After securing the Demon Stone, the group pressed on. They faced an increasing number of demonic beasts, but dispatched them with ease. Before long, the five had penetrated dozens of miles into the heart of the Fallen Phoenix Slope.

"Haha, we've got quite the haul this time—thirty-seven Demon Stones in total!" Liu Yan bubbled with excitement, her burden seemingly lighter.

"We've entered the central region of the Fallen Phoenix Slope. The demonic beasts here will only get more formidable. Caution is key," Han Xin murmured, his face etched with seriousness.

"Got it!" Liu Yan's expression tensed, and her eyes widened in terror the next moment.

"An eighth-grade demonic beast! The Explosive Flying Bear!"

Shi Po's pupils contracted as he blurted out in alarm. The Explosive Flying Bear was smaller than the Raging Flame Rhinoceros they had previously slain, but its bloodline was far superior. A mature Explosive Flying Bear could rival a typical ninth-grade demonic beast and easily battle martial artists of the same tier.

"Chen Hongyu, this creature is yours to handle!" Han Xin quickly assessed the situation and turned to Chen Hongyu.

"Me? Why should I? Someone's been freeloading this entire journey!" Chen Hongyu's face darkened as he glared at Lin Feng and accused.

"Wait, I seem to recall there's a nobody in the Outer Sect named Lin Feng! You're not him, are you?"

Lin Feng remained stoic, yet inside, he was scoffing. Throughout their journey, he hadn't had the chance to show his skills, but he would never just stand by if his companions were in danger.

Now, given that Chen Hongyu was aware of Lin Feng's infamous reputation and still insisted on him battling the formidable Explosive Flying Bear, it was clear that he was out for Lin Feng's life.

"Chen Hongyu, that's crossing the line! We're supposed to be a team since we're traveling together! The Explosive Flying Bear is on par with a ninth-level demonic beast. Sending Lin Feng to fight it is like making a joke of his life!" Han Xin's expression darkened as he glared at Chen Hongyu with disapproval.

"Fight or don't – your choice! If you're so keen on protecting him, then you handle the Explosive Flying Bear!" Chen Hongyu retorted with a cold huff, stepping back.

At that moment, the Explosive Flying Bear was mere meters away from Lin Feng and the rest!

"Brother Lin Feng, I've got your back!" Han Xin was the first to move, positioning his long spear across his chest in a defensive stance.

"Yeah, we'll take it on together!" Liu Yan and Shi Po were quick to join, standing shoulder to shoulder with Lin Feng.

"Thanks, but I believe I can handle this myself," Lin Feng said, touched by their solidarity, yet speaking with a calm confidence.

"What?" Han Xin and the others looked at him incredulously.

Without further explanation, Lin Feng charged at the Explosive Flying Bear.

"Boom!"

The bear swung its claws, unleashing a terrifying force that sent shockwaves towards Lin Feng like a tsunami.

The shockwaves were so powerful that they ripped a deep gash in the earth as they traveled.

"Strike!" Lin Feng roared, channeling all his Qi Sea's energy into his sword. In an instant, the blade's light sliced through the shockwave at an incredible speed.

With a sound akin to tearing fabric, the shockwave was split in two, bypassing Lin Feng and crashing to either side.

It was unclear if it was deliberate or accidental, but a powerful gust of wind suddenly surged toward Chen Hongyu, sending him staggering back several meters.

"Damn it!" Chen Hongyu's face turned a shade of iron blue as his glare towards Lin Feng grew even more hostile.

Roar! Roar! The Explosive Flying Bear, noticing Lin Feng drawing nearer, couldn't contain its rage.

Not only was the Explosive Flying Bear immensely strong, but it was also surprisingly fast. It swung its massive palm, large as a palm-leaf fan, aiming a vicious swipe at Lin Feng.

An overwhelming force erupted, its might palpable even from a great distance.

Whoosh! Lin Feng swiftly swung his sword, lightly tapping the bear's palm. Using the recoil, he vaulted through the air and maneuvered behind the Explosive Flying Bear.

Ding!

His sword struck the back of the Explosive Flying Bear's head, leaving only a superficial scratch!

"This guy's defense is ridiculously tough!" Lin Feng exclaimed, momentarily at a loss. As he searched for the Explosive Flying Bear's vulnerability, the creature spun around and slammed its fist onto the sword.

Crack!

With immense force, the Explosive Flying Bear shattered Lin Feng's Green Steel Sword with a single punch, the residual power still fearsome enough to hurl Lin Feng through the air.

"Out of your league!" Chen Hongyu sneered, showing no intention of lending a hand.

"Brother Lin Feng!" Han Xin was quick to respond. He soared upwards, his long spear tracing an arc through the air, its tip gleaming with a chilling light as it thrust viciously toward the Explosive Flying Bear.

"Fall back!" Lin Feng felt a mix of gratitude and frustration.

Although Han Xin was strong, he was no match for the Explosive Flying Bear, a creature on par with a level 9 demon beast!

Boom! In an instant, Han Xin was sent flying backward at an even greater speed, crashing to the ground with a heavy thud.

"You all are truly moving!" Lin Feng shook his head, his spiritual energy bursting forth as he doubled his speed, positioning himself in front of the Explosive Flying Bear.

"You're no match for it, stand down!" Lin Feng called out, halting Shi Po and the others from moving forward.

As the massive form of the Explosive Flying Bear loomed closer, Lin Feng's lips curved into a knowing smirk, and a distant rumbling echoed from within him.

"Eight Extremes Collapsing Fist!"

With a fierce shout, Lin Feng's fists glowed with a pale white light, unleashing a tumultuous sound wave as he struck at the Explosive Flying Bear!

The bear let out a roar, its expression one of scorn, seemingly unimpressed by the diminutive human before it.

Crash!

Their fists met with a brutal impact, and in an instant, an invisible wave of wind surged outward, the shockwave rippling in every direction.

"He's done it! Lin Feng has actually blocked it!"

Shi Po's jaw dropped, his face a picture of incredulity.

The bear's strength was immense, capable of easily shattering a small mountain with its eight thousand jin force. Yet Lin Feng had withstood the blow without a scratch!

"Not a bad display of power, but your technique is lacking!" Lin Feng scoffed, as intense vibrations suddenly erupted from his fists.

The Eight Extremes Collapsing Fist, with its eightfold force, could rival the full-on strike of an Astral Sea Realm warrior when stacked to its eighth layer. More fearsome still was the technique's ability to bypass external defenses and strike directly at the internal organs!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A succession of thunderous noises filled the air, and the bear's expression turned increasingly grim, its face twisted in agony.

Though its strength and defense were on par with a typical level nine demonic beast, its organs were not as resilient!

The full brunt of the Eight Extremes Collapsing Fist hit the bear's vitals, obliterating its life force in the blink of an eye!

With a final roar, the Explosive Flying Bear's massive paw swung towards Lin Feng, but ultimately, it dropped limply to the ground.

"Is it dead?" Shi Po stared at the toppled bear, his eyes betraying his shock.

"Not at all. Go retrieve the Demon Stone," Lin Feng instructed with a smile, his demeanor softening as he acknowledged their commendable performance.

"Alright!" Shi Potian scampered over to the side of the Explosive Flying Bear and began to carve into its body.

"Thanks a lot for earlier!" Lin Feng helped Han Xin to his feet, expressing his gratitude with earnest.

"You're too kind. I'm just glad I didn't make things worse!" Han Xin replied with a wry smile, genuinely surprised by Lin Feng's formidable strength that allowed him to single-handedly take down the Explosive Flying Bear.

Lin Feng offered no further words, simply clapping Han Xin on the shoulder before producing a Qi Recovery Pill and swallowing it. Despite the immense power of the Eight Extreme Collapsing Fist, executing the eighth level of inner strength at the eighth layer of the Qi Sea was still a strenuous effort. The previous strike had nearly depleted all of his spiritual energy.
