Protect Our Clan Leader

It was unclear whether her unique aura was due to her natural appearance or the endowed by her bloodline.

All these years, she had been traveling with her master, Master Yunyang.

Over the decade, her cultivation base had grown rapidly, and now she was in the advanced stage of the Spirit Platform Realm.

However, the growth of her cultivation realm was not as important as the fact that her bloodline talent was constantly increasing.

Moreover, she was clearly familiar with this forest, effortlessly avoiding a huge serpent that had attempted to ambush her from the trees.

Suddenly, her eyes sparkled as if she had spotted something, and with a slight touch of her toes, her silhouette instantly turned into a blur of movement, darting towards a specific place in the forest.

She flew around four to five miles before she finally landed.

What appeared in front of her was a towering dark-brown cliff wall, covered in various dwarf shrubs. Near the bottom of the cliff was a large crevice, from where a series of muffled sounds seemed to emerge.

Listening carefully, it seemed to be the snoring of some kind of fierce beast.

Wang Licui’s eyes brightened and without hesitation, she entered the crevice.

Although it was a crevice, it was very spacious inside, at least twenty stories high, and very wide on each side, large enough to accommodate dozens of carriages side by side.

Perhaps because the cliff provided shelter from the wind and rain, the crevice was dry and warm, much more comfortable than the howling winds outside.

She turned a corner.

Suddenly.

A large lump of black appeared in front of her.

Subconsciously, Wang Licui halted, took a few steps back, looked up, and finally got a clear look at what was in front of her.

In front of her, in the crevice, a giant black bear with needle-like fur was curled up, snoring soundly.

Even from a distance, the huge size of the creature, almost as large as a small hill, gave off an immense oppressive feeling. Combined with the waves of ferocious, domineering beastly presence, any Spirit Platform Realm cultivator with a weaker constitution would probably have already broken in fear.

However, when Wang Licui saw this giant bear, her eyes lit up, and she couldn’t help licking her lips, "It’s a Level Five Black-Tooth Bear. So much meat, it could feed me for at least two months...no, one month...no, half a month...sigh, my appetite is becoming bigger."

With that said, she unhesitatingly removed the Breath Concealing Jade Pendant from her waist.

In an instant, the energy aura belonging to the Advanced Stage of the Spirit Platform Realm pervaded the crevice.

The sleeping Black-Tooth Bear immediately woke up, its massive beast pupils fixedly aimed at Wang Liyao.

Fierce beasts have a strong sense of territory. Realizing that its cave had been intruded upon, a tiny, bloodthirsty, and wild red light flashed in its beast pupils, its breath became heavier, and its aura gradually became more and more violent.

However, Wang Liyao wasn’t frightened in the least. She even took out a jar of Spirit Bee Honey which the Black-Tooth Bear loved and waved it in front of the beast before putting it away, her provocative intentions clear.

"Roar!"

The Black-Tooth Bear was immediately angered and roared as it lunged towards Wang Licui. In its perspective, that tiny jar was not even enough to fill the gaps between its teeth.

Its size was massive, at least as high seven or eight stories, and its lunging brought about a powerful blast of wind that howled through the cavern, emitting an oppressive power that set hearts racing.

Especially its gaping mouth, with teeth glinting coldly, and its enormous bear claws, they were tremendously intimidating, leaving no doubt that if one were to be bitten or slapped by it, their organs would split instantly, resulting in instant death.

However, Wang Licui did not dodge, instead, she drew out a giant hammer and swung it with a backhand streak.

The hammer, which she had obtained years ago in the trial dungeon of Creation God Martial Emperor Dynasty, was a top-grade spiritual artifact. Over the years, she had never thought of naming it, simply referring to it as a "battle hammer".

Nonetheless, despite the perfunctory treatment it received, the top-grade spiritual artifact truly deserved its name, its power far surpassing ordinary lower-grade spiritual artifacts.

As Wang Licui swung her hammer, a dazzling light burst from it, and its enormous power instantly exploded.

At the same time, behind her, a blurry Dharma Shadow suddenly emerged, emanating a strong pressure.

Over the years, thanks to Master Yunyang’s efforts (and considerable financial expenditure), her bloodline had been slowly but continuously increasing.

Today, her bloodline capacity had reached the Mid Level Four stage, a point that signified extremely high-quality Class C talent. The Dharma Shadow forming behind her was much more solid and imposing than before, emanating a fierce and domineering presence as if it were an ancient beast reincarnated, returning to the world of humans.

Under the combined force, Wang Licui’s hammer swing was as powerful as a tyrant moving a mountain, its might unparalleled.

However, the Black-Tooth Bear was a Level Five Fierce Beast, equivalent to a human in the Heavenly Human Realm, its raw strength was truly terrifying.

Following the collision of the hammer and the bear, Wang Licui was sent flying back.

But the Black-Tooth Bear didn’t fare any better, its large body shook violently as it nearly lost its footing, and a suspicious cracking sound could be heard from its massive bear paw.

It was evident that it had also suffered a bit from that blow.

The Black-Tooth Bear became furious and pounced at Wang Licui with even greater ferocity.
