Chapter 118: Chapter 96 Promotion to Blood Refining! Shock Arises!_3

But before anything else.

Hunting cannot be neglected. Earning a little is better than nothing.

...

Another two days passed.

As usual, Gu Sheng ventured into the mountain to hunt. Today, a herbalist had provided information about the whereabouts of a wild boar. Gu Sheng hadn’t gone into the mountains for a while, and so decided to make the trip.

In the forest, Gu Sheng’s figure was as agile as a fox, weaving nimbly through the wooded underbrush. With a slight enhancement from his Qi Blood Power, his senses were sharply attuned.

He felt as though a dragon had plunged into the depths of the sea.

Here in the forest, he didn’t need to completely conceal his strength. The winds rushed past his face as Gu Sheng moved with incredible speed, following the trail provided by the herbalist.

In the past, tracking prey would take Gu Sheng a considerable amount of time.

But now, everything was much easier.

"There it is!"

The trail left by the wild boar beneath Gu Sheng’s feet was growing increasingly visible.

"Squeal! Squeal! Screeeech!"

Suddenly, snarls of pain echoed from farther in front. Gu Sheng’s expression shifted slightly—this meant the wild boar had been attacked. Could it have been intercepted by someone else or perhaps assaulted by a ferocious beast?

Without stopping, Gu Sheng made use of the Snake Breath Skill, compressing his aura to the extreme as he dashed forward at lightning speed.

Now that he had ascended to the Blood Refining Realm, roaming this forest felt akin to a high-level veteran returning to the beginner’s village. Very few creatures posed a threat to him—unless a Bone Refining Realm being appeared.

But such entities were typically found deep within Cang Mountain’s wilderness—not truly part of Cang Mountain anymore, but rather the primordial mountain ranges that connected to other territories of Da Liang.

Gu Sheng’s eyes gleamed with anticipation.

The increasingly clear tracks indicated the attacker wasn’t human nor any sort of supernatural creature, but instead a bear!

"Heaven itself knows I’m short on money and decided to give me a windfall!"

The value of a wild bear was nothing short of extraordinary. Bear gall, bear paws, bear hide—all were rare commodities that could sell for dozens of taels of silver.

Turning a corner, the commotion grew louder. He pushed aside the thick foliage.

A large brown bear immediately came into view.

Gu Sheng’s eyes shone with excitement—it really was a bear!

Yet the sight before him was somewhat gruesome. The towering brown bear, at least a full zhang in height, was ferociously ripping into the wild boar. Its massive paws slammed down with brutal force upon the boar’s skull and spine, as it ravaged the carcass, tearing straight into its gut.

No wonder the wild boar had let out such blood-curdling screams.

By now, the bear had eaten more than half.

The brown bear was preparing for a feast, ready to relish its spoils.

Gu Sheng’s eyes flickered coldly. With the Snake Breath Skill in operation, even the highly perceptive bear had failed to notice his presence.

"You ate my wild boar, so your life will pay the price!"

The six-stone bow slid into Gu Sheng’s hands, and the heavy arrow shone with a gleaming chill as he nocked it effortlessly. With his immense physical strength, Gu Sheng easily pulled the bowstring into a full circle.
