Chapter 119: Black Wind Panther, Grey Aura

This sudden black shadow was accompanied by a rather violent aura.Su Jingzhen was greatly startled!

During his previous trips up the mountain with Luo Yuebai, everything had gone smoothly.

He had forgotten about the monsters roaming Clear Wind Mountain.

As the black shadow lunged at him, Su Jingzhen’s blood energy instantly gathered at the Surging Spring points in his feet.

With a powerful step on the treetop, Su Jingzhen struck a pose resembling a soaring eagle, rising three zhang high into the air.

It seemed that the black shadow attacking him wasn’t capable of flight.

It only managed to leap two zhang out of the dense forest before losing momentum and falling back into the forest.

Meanwhile, Su Jingzhen, after evading the sudden attack, naturally couldn’t stay aloft in the void.

His body quickly descended.

However, during this process, he had already taken out the black brick.

With preparations made, he wasn’t afraid of what lay below.

No matter what kind of monster it was, when it suddenly burst out, Su Jingzhen felt its aura.

It seemed to be nothing more than a first-grade monster comparable to the Qi-refining stage.

Soon, Su Jingzhen landed back on the same tree.

He stood steadily on a small branch in the canopy.

At this moment, he also caught sight of a pair of eerie green eyes in the dense forest.

Upon closer inspection, it was a two-meter-long black panther.

At this moment, a hint of fierceness lingered in its green eyes.

Under the cover of night, it was not easy to spot if it didn’t actively attack.

This kind of ranked monster, even if it was only the lowest grade, possessed some intelligence.

They wouldn’t dare provoke Foundation Establishment cultivators who could fly with artifacts.

But people who traveled on foot were seen as prey.

“This thing should be the legendary Black Wind Panther.”

“A first-grade monster… even at its peak, it’s only at the level of perfection in the Qi Refining stage.”

“Body Cultivators may be looked down upon by Qi Refiners, but are we really soft targets for monsters as well?”

These low-level monsters didn’t hide their aura.

So after calming down, Su Jingzhen easily discerned the details of this Black Wind Panther.

“However, I have no experience in battling monsters. Today, this Black Wind Panther is practically asking for it.”

If it were a second-grade monster comparable to Foundation Establishment, Su Jingzhen might have been a bit nervous.

But the one in front of him was just a practice target.

As Su Jingzhen muttered to himself, the Black Wind Panther seemed to see an opportunity and suddenly pounced at him again.

It was as if only a black shadow flashed before Su Jingzhen’s eyes, and the Black Wind Panther’s claws were already close.

“So fast!”

Even though Su Jingzhen was already prepared, he was still taken aback by the speed of the Black Wind Panther.

Generally, monsters with “wind” in their name weren’t slow.

With another step, and the surge of blood energy, Su Jingzhen easily dodged the Black Wind Panther’s claw.

“Crack!”

Su Jingzhen dodged, but the tree under his feet took the full force of the Black Wind Panther’s claw.

With a resounding crack, the tree beneath Su Jingzhen’s feet snapped.

However, constantly evading wasn’t Su Jingzhen’s fighting style.

After dodging the first attack, he swung the black brick in his hand directly towards the Black Wind Panther’s back.

“Bang!”

This blow could have easily killed the Black Wind Panther, but its speed was indeed too fast.

As the brick approached, it only landed on the Black Wind Panther’s hind leg.

The close-quarters combat ability and style of the Black Wind Panther were somewhat similar to Body Cultivation.

If this creature had reached the second level, it wouldn’t have been so easy for Su Jingzhen to hit it with the brick.

“Roar!”

At this moment, the Black Wind Panther let out a miserable cry, and its two-meter-long body fell to the ground once again.

Su Jingzhen’s previous blow had been full force.

Now, the Black Wind Panther’s right hind leg was completely crippled.

The ferocious gleam in its eyes was accompanied by subconscious fear.

It realized that this human was not easy to deal with and harbored a slight intention to retreat. Seaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

However, Su Jingzhen’s mouth curled into a warm smile.

“You came here, and now you want to leave? Isn’t it a bit too late for that?”

In just one round, the roles of hunter and prey between Su Jingzhen and the Black Wind Panther instantly reversed.

As Su Jingzhen looked at the Black Wind Panther again, there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.

“I’ve bought a lot of meat before, but it’s all from non-ranked wild beasts. I’ve never tasted leopard meat before.”

“Roar!”

Seeing Su Jingzhen approaching, the Black Wind Panther roared again.

Its claws waved, generating a violent energy wave that instantly severed two large trees beside it.

While the trees fell towards Su Jingzhen, the Black Wind Panther darted away.

However, with its right hind leg disabled, its speed was greatly reduced.

Escape was easier said than done.

Without even looking at the two falling trees, Su Jingzhen’s blood energy surged once again, pushing his speed to the extreme.

After all, he was at the Flesh Body Spiritual Embryo second layer of Body Cultivation. Moving through this dense forest, Su Jingzhen felt as if he were walking on flat ground.

In just a dozen breaths, he caught up with the Black Wind Panther, which was still fleeing.

With a powerful kick from his right foot against a nearby large tree, Su Jingzhen shot out like a cannonball.

He landed directly on the Black Wind Panther’s back.

Then, raising the black brick in his hand high, he brought it down heavily.

The brick struck solidly on the Black Wind Panther’s head.

“Roar!”

The Black Wind Panther let out another unwilling roar.

The ferocious aura on its body instantly calmed down.

Continuing forward due to inertia, it crashed into a large tree and fell silent.

“It takes two bricks to kill a first-level Black Wind Panther. If this creature really attacks a Qi-refining Stage cultivator, even those in the later stages of Qi-refining might have trouble dealing with it.”

Looking at the Black Wind Panther’s corpse, Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but express his thoughts.

He was quite satisfied with his current strength.

However, as he looked at the two-meter-long corpse of the Black Wind Panther in front of him, the gleam in Su Jingzhen’s eyes became brighter.

This was a great source of meat!

But just as he was about to store the Black Wind Panther’s corpse in his storage bracelet, he suddenly noticed something strange.

From the cracked skull of the Black Wind Panther, a grayish airflow seemed to rush out and then enter the black brick in his hand.

“Hmm?”

Seeing this scene, Su Jingzhen was immediately stunned.

“What’s that?”

After obtaining the black brick, he had examined it many times.

However, apart from its hardness, there didn’t seem to be anything special about it.

And what just happened, he was sure that he wasn’t hallucinating.
