Chapter 89: Chapter 89, Terror?
Translator: 549690339
“Only twelve, it shouldn’t take too long,” Lu Yun thought to himself. “These Giant Bears have a larger body and better defense than Monohorn Wild Boars. If 1 want to conserve my strength, 1 must target their weak spots.”
His gaze swept over the twelve charging Giant Bears.
Each Giant Bear charged with tremendous power, and as they approached, Lu Yun found it easier to spot their weaknesses.
“Found it!”
A glint flashed in Lu Yun’s eyes as he performed the Gale Thunder Flash Step, dodging the simultaneous attacks from the bears.
While dodging, Lu Yun struck with his blade.
Schlick!
The long blade entered the bear’s neck and sliced horizontally.
A Giant Bear promptly fell.
Repeating his moves, he used the Gale Thunder Flash Step again to avoid another round of attacks and pierced the center of another bear’s forehead. “Killing these second-rank Demon Beasts is too easy,” Lu Yun found it somewhat boring, with no challenge at all.
However, just at this moment –
Grrr—
Suddenly, a series of deep, masculine roars sounded from within the cave. The roars kept coming, one after another, causing Lu Yun’s face to change slightly. There really were bigger monsters in the cave.
As the ground shook and the mountain trembled, huge Giant Bears emerged from the cave. Judging from their drowsy eyes, they seemed to have just woken up.
No, they must have been awakened from their deep sleep.
“Ten, twenty, thirty…”
While dodging and slaying the Giant Bears, Lu Yun counted the number of bears exiting the cave.
Before long, more than thirty Giant Bears had rushed out of the cave, encircling Lu Yun.
“Thirty-seven plus the initial thirteen make a total of fifty Giant Bears,” Lu Yun quickly figured out their numbers, but he had some doubts in his heart.
Could it be that the Tenth Floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower had only fifty second-rank peak Demon Beasts, just like the Ninth Floor?
Of course, these Giant Bears were stronger than the Monohorn Wild Boars on the Ninth Floor, both individually and as a group.
The bears were more formidable in terms of body size and physical defense. “Perhaps this is how it really is,” Lu Yun murmured quietly, his eyes flashing with a cold light. He accelerated again to face the attacking Giant Bears. During the journey back to the Martial Academy from the Black Veil Mountain Range, he had not rushed but instead continuously practiced the Gale Thunder Flash Step.
Now, his cultivation progress in the Gale Thunder Flash Step had increased to 50% mastery, making his speed even more terrifying. The furious Giant Bears could not touch Lu Yun’s body at all. Instead, they were constantly attacked by Lu Yun targeting their weak spots and killed with a single blow.
In just less than half the time it took to drink a cup of tea, another dozen or so Giant Bears had fallen to the ground.
“Although the individual strength of Demon Beasts is stronger than that of a Martial Artist, if I had to face fifty Meridian Passage Realm peak Martial Artists simultaneously, it probably wouldn’t be this easy,” Lu Yun looked at the chaotic, furious bears, which occasionally collided with each other, and a glint flashed in his eyes.
Schlick! Schlick!
A blade deeply penetrated the heart of a Giant Bear, and as another bear pounced, Lu Yun put away his blade and dodged.
While dodging, his figure flickered, and he turned to strike with his blade once more. The aggressive aura erupted, directly cleaving through the abdomen of another bear.
The Giant Bear’s defense was terrifying, but it could not withstand a blade infused with Pure Yang Aura.
Lu Yun’s consecutive slayings of several Giant Bears made him increasingly at ease. Unleashing the Gale Thunder Flash Step, he darted among the furious Giant Bears.
He could feel his footwork slowly improving, which was also why his attack pace was gradually slowing down.
Use it and it advances; neglect it and it regresses- this principle applied to this world as well.
“If I fought like this for half a month, the Gale Thunder Flash Step might reach the Perfection stage without needing energy points,” Lu Yun couldn’t help but think.
Schlick.
As his figure flickered, Lu Yun left a large hole in the neck of a Giant Bear.
Boom!
He made a frontal slash, and fierce power erupted. He chopped off an incoming Giant Bear’s arm and drove the blade into its throat.
“When I leave, should 1 immediately announce that I’ve passed the Tenth Floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower, or wait a while?” Lu Yun continued to fight the remaining Giant Bears while considering his plans for the future.
At that moment, an even louder roar resonated. Startled, Lu Yun’s thoughts retreated, focusing his gaze on the dark cave.
He saw the cave shaking violently, and four even larger Giant Bears emerged.
Compared to these four behemoths, the previous bears seemed like mere cubs, one size smaller.
“As expected, the Tenth Floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower isn’t that simple,” Lu Yun’s eyes landed on the four Giant Bears.
Among them, three Giant Bears were two zhang tall, and their robust bodies resembled small hills. As they moved, the surrounding trees rustled.
Unsurprisingly, these three beasts had already broken through the limits of the second rank and were genuine Third Rank creatures.
However, Lu Yun’s attention was on the other Giant Bear.
With a body three zhang tall, pillar-like sturdy arms, and a powerful aura that could be felt from far away, this bear symbolized the strength and terror of the opponent.
“The last Giant Bear must have reached the midway point of the Third Rank,” Lu Yun muttered quietly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes as his terrifying aura intensified once more.
His movements were ghostly as he darted among the remaining ordinary Giant Bears, aiming to end the battle as quickly as possible and then focus his energy on the final four Giant Bears.
“Grrr!”
It seemed that upon seeing their reinforcements arriving, the remaining dozen or so Giant Bears became even more fearless, wildly waving their sturdy arms at Lu Yun.
Though with a reduced number of bears, their cooperation improved significantly, and they no longer collided with each other like before.
However, that didn’t make much difference to a serious Lu Yun.
The moment he decided to fight seriously, his entire aura changed. Boundless killing intent spread out, gradually enveloping an area of tens of meters. Blood-colored light sparkled in Lu Yun’s eyes.
At this moment, Lu Yun’s aura changed drastically. There was an extremely hot, masculine heat, as well as a bone-chilling coldness.
This was Lu Yun after fully unleashing the Pure Yang Aura and the Slaughter Conception.
He felt an unprecedented power within himself.
“Scumbags, die!”
The words squeezed from Lu Yun’s teeth, and his entire being transformed into a blood-red lightning bolt, charging into battle.
Schlick! Schlick! Schlick!
The second-rank peak Giant Bears were no match for Lu Yun.
A few breaths later.
Only four Giant Bears remained on the Tenth Floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower.
The smallest one was two zhang tall, and compared to it, Lu Yun was not even as thick as its leg.
However, the aura emanating from Lu Yun was stronger than any of the four bears combined.
Including the Giant Bear that appeared to be at the middle stage of the Third Rank..
