Sovereign to Immortality-Chapter 20
Chapter 20 – Stepping on the ground
“‘Demon’? What is that? ”
Su Baozhang heard Yang Junshan mutter to himself, and it was clear that he did not know what the “demon” he spoke of was.
This was not surprising, because from Yang Junshan’s memories from his previous life, the cultivators of this world did not know what was meant by “demon”. In this world, there were ferocious beasts, savage beasts, wild beasts and other types of beasts that could only survive by instinct, and even the most powerful dire beasts could compete with the top cultivators. However, only people with intelligence could occupy the decisive position in the cultivation world, and beasts could only become prey to cultivators. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚w𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m
Demons did not exist in this world.
Many beasts with intelligence had already appeared, and those with wisdom gradually became known in the cultivation world. However, the name “Demon” would truly appear and be named in twenty to thirty years, and it would then cause great waves in the entire cultivation world.
In reality, even Yang Junshan did not expect that within ten years from the great change that had occurred in this world, the monsters in this world would have already sprouted. He originally only wanted to track this Treadmill bear based on the information he had heard from his previous life, but he did not expect that he would accidentally discover the scene in front of him.
In fact, the fact that three feet of freezing ice could not be compared to one day of cold. As it turned out, ten years ago, the signs of a great change had already occurred, but they were not known about it now, and if it wasn’t for the experiences Yang Junshan had in his previous life, he probably wouldn’t have been able to find any clues.
After confirming that the Treadmill bear before his eyes had spirit demons, Yang Junshan finally understood the unimaginable events that happened during the Banyan Mountain hunting in his previous life.
At this time, Su Baozhang lowered his voice once again, and asked worriedly: “Brother Jun Shan, you can’t be thinking of capturing this Treadmill bear, right? “This iop High Rank Vicious Beast. It is far from something a Mountain Crashing Bull can compare to, and we are simply unable to deal with it.”
Looking at the giant bear that was still playing happily dozens of meters away, Yang Junshan said: “Brother Bao Zhang is right, we can’t deal with it, but the others can’t!”
“You mean, Zhang Yueming and the others?”
Su Baozhang immediately thought of something, and his eyes lit up: That’s right, the Treadmill bear iop quality fierce beast, the possibility of producing a high quality immortal spirit is even higher than that of the intermediate quality Yellow Ox. That Zhang Yueming is a genius that even the Heaven-Shaken Sect s have noticed, to be able to catch his eyes, he must be at least a high quality immortal spirit, maybe the mountain guarding cultivators of Heaven-Shaken Sect would specially tell him the news about the Treadmill bear.
Su Baozhang paused for a moment, then seemed to have thought of something, and asked suspiciously: “I wonder how the Treadmill bear, after going through the first two rounds of hunting, could still be left behind, with such an obvious target aigh rank fierce beast, this time it can’t be that the Heaven-Shaken Sect deliberately reserved it for him or it was brought here from a new place, can it?
Zhang Yueming naturally did not receive such attention!
Yang Junshan had thought of this idea but he didn’t say anything. In fact, Yang Junshan himself had only come here based on the news that spread around the Banyan Mountain as soon as the competition ended. He didn’t think that he would encounter this Treadmill bear here so quickly.
Initially, according to the legends of his previous life, the fierce beast that the Heaven-Shaken Sect had arranged for Zhang Yueming should burple striated pig, even though the purple striated pig could not compare to the Treadmill bear, it was still possible for it to breed high quality fierce beasts. In fact, in his previous life, after Zhang Yueming had killed the purple striated pig, he had indeed obtained a high quality Purple Cloud Spirit Skin, and this Purple Cloud Skin had also solidified Zhang Yueming’s position in the Heaven-Shaken Sect in the future.
However, when Zhang Yueming was tracking the purple striated pig with his comrades, a mountain tiger that was out searching for food also locked onto the purple striated pig and took the initiative to attack.
Although the Steadfast Tiger was far more ferocious than the purple striated pig, the two of them were both high-ranked beasts. In the end, even though the Steadfast Tiger had defeated the purple striated pig, he had still received quite a bit of damage.
Originally, they had wanted to keep the Steelfang Tiger behind as well. One must know that once the Tiger Bone Riding Mountain was formed intigh-grade Celestial Spirit, it would be much better than the Purple Cloud Skin or something like that.
Unfortunately, although the mountain tiger was once again injured by everyone’s attack, it still managed to break through the encirclement and intercept by Zhang Yueming and the others, and disappeared withourace into the Banyan Mountain.
After the incident, Zhang Yueming who was unwilling to accept it had once again tried to find and kill the Mountain Tiger, but when the grounds were closed again, the Mountain Tiger did not appear.
With the strength of Yang Junshan and Su Baozhang, they were naturally unable to compete head on with Zhang Yueming, so, from the beginning, Yang Junshan had already made up his mind to kill the purple striated pig, but now, he did not want to fight with Zhang Yueming directly.
After breaking through the encirclement and annihilating Zhang Yueming’s group, the mountain tiger had already become a spent force. If Yang Junshan could seize the chance and kill it, it would be possible for the high grade bone tiger spirit to appear, Yang Junshan’s body would be scorching hot!
But why did a Treadmill bear appear here at this time?
Could it be that the things that happened in the Banyan Mountain’s encampment in his previous life went wrong, and Zhang Yueming and the others did not encounter the Mountain Tiger Lord here?
It had to be known that Treadmill bear and Mountain Tiger were ferocious beasts of equal strength, and the two were enemies that they could not bear to meet, if they met, they would fight to the death. In their previous life, if there was really a Treadmill bear at the scene, then the Mountain Tiger would not come to the Treadmill bear’s territory, and even if they wanted to ambush and kill the purple striated pig, it was unlikely that they would not be discovered by the Treadmill bear.
Furthermore, the Treadmill bear in front of him was far larger in size than its peers, to the point Yang Junshan suspected that the giant bear was already using its spiritual consciousness to slowly demonize.
Unless what Zhang Yueming and the others said after they went on a hunting spree was not true, the place where they sat on the mountain and hid their purple striated pig was not here!
If that was the case, there was no point in the two of them staying here.
Just as Yang Junshan was hesitating whether he should stay put or not, the giant bear that was at the bottom of the hill suddenly stopped playing the game. It then lifted its face and sniffed a few times into the air, then turned around and jogged down the trench created by the mountain torrent.
Yang Junshan slightly froze for a moment, then indicated for Su Baozhang to follow. The two, borrowing the cover from the mountain slope, maintained themselves at a distance of fifty to sixty meters away from the giant bear from beginning to end. Fortunately, the giant bear had a huge body.
Yang Junshan’s gaze never left the giant bear, but he suddenly felt Su Baozhang tugging at his sleeves, causing him to turn around, only to see Su Baozhang staring in shock at the roots of the half of the tree stump.
Because of the angle at which the two of them were hiding, they didn’t realize that there was a nest made up of branches and dried grass underneath the half-broken tree stump. There was even a relatively fresh looking manure beside the nest.
This was a wild boar den!
Yang Junshan could immediately tell the origins of the den, and the first thing he thought of was the purple striated pig. Could it be that the giant bear came for the purple striated pig, and didn’t they say that the one hiding there was a mountain tiger?
Yang Junshan glanced at the giant bear that was still advancing along the trench from afar. The wild boar in the forest truly liked to walk inside the ditch, and this Treadmill bear that was about to become a “demon” was obviously heading towards the purple striated pig.
Chase or not chase?
Yang Junshan clenched his teeth, and said solemnly: “Go!”
Su Baozhang’s face changed, in the end, he still held onto the Hundred Colored Cold Dagger tightly and followed behind Yang Junshan.
The giant bear followed the mountain torrent and moved stealthily along the trench for about half a kilometer. When it reached a bush, it stopped and looked around as if it was inspecting the terrain. Then, it fell down, its huge body immediately covered up.
If that giant bear was really trying to ambush the purple striated pig, Yang Junshan would not be able to determine where the purple striated pig was coming from. Thus, the two of them had no choice but to make a large circle and hide behind a pile of rocks dozens of meters behind the Treadmill bear.
Not long after the two of them hid their bodies, a strange wind suddenly blew in the mountain forest. The wind that blew through the forest brought along a withered branch and a broken leaf.
“Where did this strange wind come from!”
Su Baozhang attempted to slap the dried up leaves on his body, but was abruptly pulled by Yang Junshan who was beside him. Su Baozhang did not understand what was happening, but saw Yang Junshan’s bright eyes staring aatch of forest a few miles away.
Su Baozhang looked towards the direction of Yang Junshan’s gaze, and saw a forest full of leaves, as if something was passing through in a trance, but when he looked carefully, it was actually an illusion caused by the swaying of the leaves, but this stretch of forest was not too far away from the location of the wild boar’s den.
“But what did you discover?”
Although he did not discover anything, but seeing how Yang Junshan was acting as if he was facing a great enemy, Su Baozhang still asked with a low voice.
“Shh!”
Yang Junshan’s indiscernible voice rang beside Su Baozhang’s ears: “It’s coming, the good show’s about to begin.”
Unknowingly, Su Baozhang suddenly felt that although Yang Junshan was suppressing his strength, the excitement that was being emitted from inside could not be suppressed.
At this moment, the shrubbery at the end of the hill suddenly began to shake violently, as if there was a wild beast rampaging through it, heading straight for the location of the broken tree stump on the hillside.
