The bright moon hung high, its silver light shining everywhere.
The mountains and forests were not at all dark, but rather white and gentle.
However, the air was thick with murderous intent, making it somewhat terrifying.
Chen Hai and several strange beasts advanced together, causing the entire mountain to tremble slightly, which was extremely frightening, with leaves of various trees constantly falling!
Behind them were hundreds of strange beasts, each with gleaming fangs and scaly armor.
Chu Feng was very calm, watching them, ready for battle at any moment!
âDonât act rashly, the seed hasnât matured yet!â Chen Hai spoke, turning to face the three leading strange beasts, his voice cold.
He was very confident and domineering, warning them with a killing intent!
Those three strange beasts were all very powerful, each a dominant force in their area. Now, upon hearing the threat, they all revealed a fierce killing intent.
A white rhinoceros roared, its body glowing, moving its massive form, its horn pointed at Chen Hai, ready to charge at any moment!
There was also a mountain cat, entirely golden, not very large, only a little over a meter long, but the killing intent it exuded was absolutely terrifying.
There was even a wolf, over five meters long, looking very fierce, with a mouth full of fangs, eyes filled with cruelty, and a body enveloped in black mist, exuding a heavy aura of malevolence.
These three strange beasts were not weaker than Chen Hai. They were extremely agitated because they had not come into contact with the pollen, feeling angry and regretful, staring intently at Chu Feng.
Unfortunately, they had arrived a step too late.
In the end, the three special strange beasts held back. They also wanted to wait for the seed to mature, as that would make the medicinal effects better.
The silver vine was now dark, its vitality rapidly decreasing, its petals falling, leaving only one seed, white and crystal clear.
âVery good!â Chen Hai was very satisfied upon seeing this.
He stood there with his hands behind his back, waiting for the seed to fully mature. He felt it wouldnât take much longer to have a harvest!
In the night, the mountain forest was actually quiet.
Hundreds of strange beasts stopped roaring, intimidated by the few dominant beasts, not daring to move, all obediently staying behind.
The essence of the silver vine was visibly flowing away, its luster becoming increasingly dim, all the essence gathering towards the seed at the top.
On the ground, the silver roots were also doing the same.
Chu Feng remained silent. Since Chen Hai and the few dominant strange beasts had not immediately attacked, he was happy with the situation.
Because his physique was still strengthening, a warm current was constantly surging within him, this indescribable baptism making him clearly feel his own changes.
On his skin, there was some substance, like a layer of sweat, sticky and with a bad smell, which was being expelled during the evolution process, and it had been very intense just now!
Chu Feng felt his body clear and clean, his whole body comfortable and particularly light.
At this moment, his flesh was transparent, his organs crystal clear, his bones white, as if made of divine metal.
Chu Feng heard it; his organs resonated again, his strong heartbeat like a drum, blood rushing to his limbs and all parts of his body, mysterious energy surging.
He knew that another intense baptism had begun.
This change was indeed still ongoing!
His skin was wet and sticky, the substance similar to sweat being forcefully expelled.
Chu Feng felt that if he washed off these unpleasant substances, his skin would likely be as brilliant as glass, and he felt his hearing and vision were sharp, his spirit incredibly full.
This evolution was too rapid, from the inside out, making his physique continuously strengthen!
Finally, his body gradually calmed down, and he was completely at ease. The pollen had been fully utilized, his body clear and transparent, becoming even stronger!
Suddenly, a bell sound rang out, Chen Haiâs communicator went off, causing many fierce beasts to become agitated, even the few dominant strange beasts had a fierce look in their eyes.
Chen Hai frowned but still answered.
âHave you found Chu Feng?â The Mu family asked, very concerned about this matter.
If it were a normal day, they wouldnât disturb Chen Hai, treating him with special importance, and would ask the woman about trivial matters. But now they couldnât contact her.
âNo!â Chen Hai replied.
He was about to gain a great fortune from Chu Feng, and out of reflex, he denied it without thinking, not wanting to reveal anything.
Before this, he had already killed to silence others.
âIs there really something strange about that Chu Feng?â The Mu family suspected.
âThere shouldnât be, but there might be a big problem with that Kong Gang.â Chen Hai changed the topic, not wanting to talk about Chu Feng, the more he cared, the more he wanted to cover up.
The Mu family asked where the woman and the man who could use earthé (earth tunneling) were. Chen Hai lied, saying those two had made an important discovery and were secretly tracking Kong Gang, and he was on his way.
âIs Kong Gang really related to the Bull God King?!â The Mu familyâs voice was somewhat cold.
âIâll know when I get there!â Chen Hai said.
The signal on the communicator was very poor, intermittent in the vast mountains, and the call was interrupted several times.
âIâve already tracked deep into the mountains and found their trail, no more talk!â Chen Hai quickly hung up.
Chu Fengâs hearing was now exceptionally sharp, even from a distance, he could clearly hear the conversation between the Mu family and Chen Hai, everything was clear.
Chen Haiâs cover-up was actually helping him.
However, Chu Feng felt a bit guilty towards Kong Gang, as this guy was once again taking the blame for him.
âWhat are you smiling about, with death at your doorstep!?â Chen Hai glanced at him, not taking him seriously.
âThanks, youâre still shining at the last moment, helping me clear some trouble.â Chu Feng smiled.
âJust you?!â Chen Hai understood his meaning but showed disdain. He had practiced boxing for over thirty years, and after evolving, he was rarely matched among the strange beings.
At this moment, the silver vine was completely withered, losing all its luster. The seed fell off on its own, white as jade, crystal clear, shining in the moonlight.
The wolf moved, its power terrifying, a dominant strange beast in the area, its over five-meter-long body moving like lightning, lunging forward, opening its mouth to swallow the seed.
However, Chu Feng was faster. He was standing nearby and grabbed the seed in his palm, not allowing any loss, as it was of great importance!
At the same moment, Chen Hai burst into action. He hadnât acted first because he was somewhat wary of the three dominant strange beasts, wanting to find an opportunity to eliminate one or two first. Now he pounced from behind towards the wolf.
A terrifying fist imprint bloomed, his divine might awe-inspiring, the surrounding grass and trees all broken by the gale, his punch incredibly powerful!
The wolf reacted quickly, turning to bite and spewing a black light, sharp like a blade, aiming to kill Chen Hai.
However, he was prepared, his speed undiminished, using his left hand as a shield to block the black light, while his right handâs fist imprint still aimed at the wolf.
The alloy shield did not break, its defense astonishing.
Whoosh! Chen Hai approached, his fist imprintâs power undiminished, striking the wolf. This time, he aimed for a one-hit kill, concentrating all his strength in the punch.
Blood splattered, the wolf roared, its body pierced, ribs torn, nearly split in two. It fell several meters away, landing in a pool of blood, dead.
Chen Hai was ruthless, his ambush successful.
The other two dominant strange beasts, the white rhinoceros and the mountain cat, involuntarily took a few steps back. This human had instantly killed the wolf, making them feel uneasy.
Chen Hai relaxed somewhat, with two dominant strange beasts left, he had the strength to deal with them, believing he could kill them one by one.
At this moment, he was in high spirits!
Chen Hai stepped forward, looking down at Chu Feng, a smile on his face, showing his white teeth, and said, âThanks for guarding it for so long!â
He extended his hand, directly demanding the seed.
âToo early to be happy, right?â Chu Feng said, equally in high spirits, genuinely so.
Chen Hai approached step by step, his smile growing, everything under control. He hadnât expected to find such a mysterious fruit, and he could definitely evolve through it.
The mountain cat, entirely golden, quickly attacked, lunging forward. It didnât go for the seed in Chu Fengâs hand but clawed at Chen Haiâs throat.
The white rhinoceros also moved, its massive body running like a small mountain, making the forest tremble, charging towards Chen Hai.
These two strange beasts had sensed the danger from Chen Hai and decided to join forces to eliminate him first.
At the same moment, hundreds of strange beasts also became restless, rushing forward together, wanting to seize the seed, a terrifying battle about to break out.
Chen Haiâs face was cold, his body moving like lightning, disappearing from his original spot, evading the attacks of the two dominant strange beasts.
He leaped up, like a great bird, swooping down, punching towards Chu Feng below, aiming to kill him and take the mysterious seed.
Chu Feng finally moved, forming a fist imprint, meeting Chen Hai head-on, clashing with him.
The sound was dull, but the power was immense, the area filled with flying sand and broken trees, rocks cracking, the aftershock throwing many fierce beasts away.
Chu Feng stood his ground, not moving an inch.
Chen Hai was shocked, landing on the other side like a large bird, feeling pain in his fist, realizing he had been at a disadvantage.
After all, he had practiced Xingyi Quan for over thirty years, and after evolving, his body was incredibly powerful. It was very difficult to surpass him in boxing.
However, just now, he had felt a certain boxing intent from the other side, vast and ancient, like a prehistoric ox colliding with his fist.
This made his fist ache, suffering a heavy blow.
âYou have some skills, youâre also proficient in boxing.â Chen Hai tried to remain calm, realizing the situation was beyond his expectations.
Earlier, this Chu Feng was far inferior to him, not even a match for him, relying only on that strange large bow.
But in just a short time, why had Chu Feng become so strong? It was as if he had become a different person!
Chen Hai didnât know the effects of the pollen. If he had understood, he would have gone mad and fought Chu Feng to the death as soon as it appeared.
Chu Feng was certain his physique had evolved, improving significantly. Facing Chen Hai again, he felt no pressure.
âLet me see how powerful Xingyi Quan really is!â Chu Feng said, preparing to test it on him.
Beside them, the golden mountain cat and the white rhinoceros both growled, stepping back, hoping these two humans would fight to a stalemate.
The other fierce beasts also began to retreat.
Chen Hai moved, swift as lightning, his body flickering to Chu Fengâs side, performing the horse form from the twelve forms of Xingyi Quan, like a celestial horse galloping, charging at Chu Feng with terrifying power.
Chu Feng remained calm, the first move of the Bull Demon Fist exploding, meeting Chen Hai head-on, clashing in the air.
Both were pushed back, but Chu Feng was very relaxed. After this evolution, his physique was extremely powerful, his strength and speed both astonishing.
Chen Hai was shocked, his arm numb, trembling slightly, nearly disabled.
He knew things were bad, the otherâs strength was a notch above his, and the boxing technique he used was also strange, seemingly not inferior to Xingyi Quan.
After all, he had received the true teachings, the authentic Xingyi Quan, profound and vast, not some wild style.
He knew the terror of this boxing technique, at a high level, it approached the Dao, capable of killing any strange being!
Chen Hai growled, decisively performing his strongest fist imprint, the dragon form with his left hand and the tiger form with his right, both the dragon and tiger forms of the twelve forms of Xingyi Quan bursting out simultaneously.
This was his ultimate move, the highest boxing intent he currently possessed, the dragon and tiger competing, domineering and boundless, usually capable of decisively killing an opponent.
Chu Fengâs expression was serious, not daring to be careless, performing the Great Bull Demon Fist, displaying the boxing intent and form, meeting it head-on.
This strike was incredibly intense, the wind from the punches sweeping through, the grass, trees, and rocks in the area all splitting and breaking.
The two figures moved like ghosts, weaving through the wind, rapidly moving amidst the flying sand and stones, constantly colliding and dodging.
In an instant, they exchanged dozens of punches.
Chen Hai was horrified, throughout this time, he had been using the dragon and tiger competition, continuously striking, stacking this ultimate move, pushing its killing power to the extreme.
But the other had withstood it.
Moreover, the otherâs strength was greater, the punches more powerful, striking his arms and fists, causing him excruciating pain, his arms feeling as if they were broken.
Chen Hai was thrown back, spitting blood, his arms slightly twisted, spasming, his last strike causing severe fractures in his arms.
He was very decisive, as soon as he landed, he rushed out, wanting to escape, abandoning the seed!
A figure blocked his path, Chu Feng standing in front of him, moving faster than him!
Chen Hai was terrified, had this young man just consumed a mysterious fruit?
In his view, this opponent had suddenly become many times more powerful, his physique greatly enhanced, both strength and speed surpassing him.
âXingyi Quan is indeed good, if you hand over the true teachings, Iâll give you a quick death.â Chu Feng said.
âYou want the true teachings of Xingyi Quan? Dream on!â Chen Haiâs eyes were cold, he was retreating, trying to think of a way, not wanting to die here.
âThen thereâs nothing to talk about, kill!â Chu Fengâs eyes were cold, he decisively attacked, unleashing explosive power and astonishing speed.
His fists glowed, slightly crystalline, terrifyingly powerful.
Chen Haiâs face was pale, pushed back by Chu Fengâs heavy punches, coughing blood, the shield he carried deformed, unable to withstand the punch.
Finally, the alloy shield shattered, penetrated by Chu Fengâs punch, striking his body.
Blood splattered, a blood hole in Chen Haiâs chest, visible through to the other side.
