Huang Xie just laid there like he wasn’t able to move at all after he was sent flying by this burst of lightning that came out of the ground.
However, no one went to help him since they could still see the lightning that was around him.
Rather, no one even seemed worried about him as they just waited for him to react.
That was because they could see the faint layer of green light that was around him.
As long as that was there, they knew that Huang Xie wouldn’t be in any danger since he would be protected by the power of his physique.
However, they couldn’t help being surprised by just how strong Huang Xie’s physique was.
They could easily tell that the lightning that came out from the ground was as strong as a single attack from someone in the Peak Qi Condensation Realm. They knew since it was as strong as the elders that they trained with.
After a long while, Huang Xie finally slowly stood up.
There still seemed to be lightning around him, but he didn’t have a problem with them as he stood up. It was as if he had been able to suppress this lightning that was around him with the faint layer of green light.
As Huang Xie stood there, he took a deep breath before suddenly letting that breath out in one go.
When he released this breath, the lightning that had been gathered around him was scattered without a trace. The faint layer of green light seemed to pulse once after he let out that deep breath which blew away the lightning that had been around him.
Then Huang Xie took a deep breath again before relaxing his stance.
When it was all over, Huang Xie said, “I’m fine.”‘
Everyone that had been looking at him with strange looks slowly went back to what they were doing, but people with observant eyes could see that they were peeking at Huang Xie from time to time.
It was almost as if they were trying to figure out just where Huang Xie pulled out all this power from.
In truth, Huang Xie didn’t have this power in the first place.
It was only when he was hit with this powerful blast of lightning that his body started to adapt to the power behind the lightning strike. It was only when he was almost fried by this lightning that his physique started to grow.
His physique adapted to the power of the lightning and was able to protect him in the end. At the same time, it healed up the burns that he suffered from being hit with this lightning.
That was just how Huang Xie’s physique was.
It would only grow when he was beaten up like this.
Huang Xie walked back over to the hole that he had dug and looked down at the thing that had been uncovered.
There was a stone that was lying at the bottom of this hole.
There were faint wisps of lightning that were around this stone that seemed to be the lightning energy that flowed naturally from it. However, just that alone was terrifying as this lightning energy was as strong as the blast that had hit Huang Xie just now.
Huang Xie knitted his brows when he saw this.
If he were to pick up the stone, there was no doubt that he would be hit with a blast of lightning that would be even stronger than the one that he had been hit with before…
He was worried that he wouldn’t be able to take this.
While Huang Xie was worried about this, the little bear suddenly stood up and came forward.
It moved past everyone as they were still staring at the stone covered in lightning in a daze.
When it stood at the edge of the hole, everyone finally realized that the little bear had made a move.
Before anyone could say anything, the little bear poked its head into the hole and suddenly gave a roar.
The moment that it roared out, everyone had to cover their ears or else it felt like their eardrums would burst. But there was a moment where they hadn’t been able to react in time, so they had suffered a bit from that moment where they hadn’t protected themselves.
There were some that still had ringing in their ears after they covered it.
The little bear’s roar created a blast of wind that came out of the hole.
Along with this blast of wind, there were streaks of lightning that were sent flying up into the sky.
After roaring for a bit, the little bear suddenly stopped and turned around to say, “Alright, you can pick it up now.”
But even though the little bear said this, it didn’t seem like anyone was reacting to it.
That was because everyone had covered their ears to block out the roaring of the little bear.
When the little bear saw that no one responded, it suddenly raised its paw as if it was about to slap someone. When they saw this, everyone quickly released the hands that were on their ears.
The little bear however kept going with that slap and gently hit Huang Xie.
Huang Xie was picked off the ground from the force of this slap and thrown into a tree on the side.
Everyone just stared in shock when they saw this as they didn’t know what to do.
Xiao Ming finally reacted by looking like she wanted to pull out a weapon, but Huang Xie stopped her by saying, “Wait, stop! It’s fine!”
He knew from the force of that slap that if they were to fight, there was no way that they would be able to do anything to the little bear. The little bear was just on a completely different level from them…
But he also knew that the little bear didn’t have any hostility towards them.
If the little bear had wanted to kill him, it would have slapped much harder than this.
However, the slap that the little bear had hit him with had only sent him flying like this. That had to mean that the little bear wasn’t planning on hurting him and was just doing it to vent its anger.
Or at least that was what Huang Xie thought at first until he felt the change in his physique.
It seemed that his physique had gone up another level from the slap that the little bear gave him.
When he looked at the little bear again, he saw that the little bear whispered something to him. It was something that only he could hear.
“This is a bit extra just for you since you’ve shown me something interesting.”
Though Huang Xie’s face was calm, it was anything but calm under the surface.
With this, Huang Xie was certain that this little bear had to be some kind of powerful spirit beast that had entered their ranks. While he didn’t know what the goal of this spirit beast was, he knew that it wouldn’t be that simple.
But the little bear just defied all expectations as it walked over to Xiao Ming and said, “Human child, I’ll take those snacks now.”
Xiao Ming revealed a look like she didn’t know what to do at first, but in the end, she still gave the snacks that the little bear asked for.
The little bear revealed a faint smile before saying, “Very good. This is where I’ll leave you then.”
Before any of them could react, the little bear suddenly disappeared into thin air.
If it wasn’t for the fact that they had seen the little bear standing there just a few seconds ago, they would have never thought that the little bear was there in the first place.
When it was over, they were just left with an empty feeling of not knowing what had just happened…
…
“Where did you go?”
“I just went out for a stroll and picked up a few things. Here, have a taste of this.”
“Mmm, it’s not bad, but there’s a bit too little of it.”
“Who told you to eat that much? I only have this little bit that I got from the humans and you’re eating it all!”
“You’re so stingy, it was just a little bite.”
“You!”
There was a large explosion that rang out as these two beasts suddenly clashed with one another, but it didn’t seem like either side was hurt when they came out of the explosion.
It was as if this explosion was just a common thing for them.
“Enough, stop making a mess.”
There was a third beast that suddenly appeared that stopped the two of them from fighting.
There were other beasts that were nearby watching all of this happen, but it seemed like they were more interested in the thing that the little bear had brought back.
That’s right, it was the little bear who offered the snack to the other spirit beast which had caused this fight.
As for the place that they were currently in, it was a land that was filled with spiritual energy. This was spiritual energy far greater than even the center of the Ten Thousand Beast Valley.
That was because this was the source of the spiritual energy in the Ten Thousand Beast Valley.
That spiritual energy was just what leaked out from this place under the ground.
After the third beast broke up the fight, it said, “Alright, what did you see above? Did you accomplish the mission that we gave you?”
