Chapter 1004 Ate the Palms of the Earth Bear

About two hours later, Qin Haodong opened his eyes and there was a gleam in his eyes.

He had successfully broken through to the early stage of the Grand Completion Realm. However, all his 16 low-level Immortal Crystals had been used up, leaving him with nothing.

He was glad that he had made sufficient preparations. Otherwise, he might have failed.

All three of them had successfully broken through. Qin Haodong no longer needed Niu Cuihua’s help to refine Vitality Pills.

Qin Haodong had picked 5 Earthvein Spiritual Fruits in total. One had been eaten by the Three-legged Golden Toad. One was for the Little Witch. The remaining three had been refined into pills by him.

A day later, the three of them left the Seven Storeys Pagoda and reappeared in the valley of Thunder Mountain.

After appearing, they were shocked by the scene before them. When they first arrived, Thunder Mountain was covered with lush trees. It was a beautiful place, just like a paradise.

However, at this time, the Thunder Mountain’s surroundings were in ruins. All the flowers, grass, and trees had been destroyed. Even the ground seemed to have undergone severe upheaval.

“How could this be?”

Just as they were puzzled, a roar suddenly came from the side. The Earth Bear pounced on the three people, followed by a gust of strong wind.

It turned out that everything in front of them was caused by this beast. It suddenly lost the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits, and it had nowhere to vent its anger.

Although it had beaten up the people of the Dragon Kingdom, it was still angry. This beast seemed to have endless strength. Its momentum didn’t diminish in the slightest even after it had vented its anger for a long time.

“Hi, you’re really blind. Since you came to us, I’ll play with you.”

Niu Cuihua had just broken through to the late stage of the Grand Completion Realm. After sensing the power of this realm, she had long wanted to find someone to fight with. Unfortunately, she didn’t have a suitable opponent. The unlucky Earth Bear just happened to cross her path.

The Earth Bear’s eyes were red. It raised its huge paw and slashed toward Niu Cuihua. There was no mercy in its eyes.

Niu Cuihua did not dodge. The Genuine Qi in her body ran wildly, and she also struck out. A wheel-sized bear palm collided with a delicate hand.

It seemed that there was a huge difference between Niu Cuihua and the beast. When the two palms collided, the Earth Bear seemed to have been hit by a cannonball and was knocked dozens of meters away. It smashed into the ground with a boom. The entire valley shook violently.

Niu Cuihua only staggered back slightly. She looked at her palm and said with a smile, “Hubby, how is it? Not bad, right?”

Qin Haodong nodded. For cultivators at the level of the Grand Completion Realm, every step forward would bring unimaginable power.

A day ago, Wang Minghai who was at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm, had been beaten like a dog by the bear. Even one of his arms was torn off by the beast.

At this moment, Niu Cuihua was battling with this Earth Bear as easily as if she was playing a game. She even possessed an absolute advantage in strength. This obviously showed the gap between the two of them.

“Ao…”

The Earth Bear possessed an astonishing defense capability. Although it was knocked dozens of meters away, it wasn’t injured at all.

It had always been the king of this valley. No one dared to approach it. However, the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits it had guarded for years were suddenly snatched away by someone and now it was being beaten up like this. It was completely enraged.

It got up from the ground and billowed over like a gust of wind. It opened its big mouth to bite Niu Cuihua fiercely with its white teeth.

“Hi, your mouth stinks.”

Niu Cuihua leaped into the air and kicked the Earth Bear on the forehead. With a boom, the Earth Bear, like a small mountain, was once again sent flying by Niu Cuihua.

This time, she did not give it any chance to fight back. She chased after it and beat it up violently.

“Ow… ow… ow…”

The entire valley was filled with the howls of the Earth Bear. The little beasts around were so frightened that they scattered in all directions. All the birds spread their wings and flew high into the sky in an attempt to leave the valley.

In the beginning, the Earth Bear roared angrily with much momentum. But half an hour later, its roars became like whimpers instead.

In front of Niu Cuihua, it no longer had its previous power and influence. It was beaten up and no longer had any ability to fight back.

Although its defense capability was amazing, it could not withstand the violent onslaught of a master at the late stage of the Grand Completion Realm.

It already had a certain amount of intelligence and knew that it was no match for the woman in front of it. In the end, it simply lay on the ground and kowtowed to the three people, looking at them with pleading eyes.

Niu Cuihua clapped her hands in satisfaction and smiled. “Hubby, do you want me to cut off its paws for a meal. Let’s have a feast!”

When it heard what she said, the Earth Bear grew even more terrified. It lay there on the ground and quivered in fear, but didn’t dare to resist at all.

It had tried to escape many times. Unfortunately, it was beaten back by the madwoman each time. What’s more, the beatings became increasingly savage.

Qin Haodong said, “How can we eat all these paws? They are so big.”

“If we can’t eat them at one go, we can keep them and eat them slowly. Braised paw, sweet and sour paw, dry-fried paw, barbecue paw,” she said and almost drooled.

Niu Cuihua looked like a foodie now.

As for the Earth Bear, it was so terrified that it was about to piss. Its entire body quivered in fear.

“Forget it. It’s not easy for it to cultivate up to this level. It’s a pity to eat it.” Qin Haodong came to the bear and looked at it. Then, he said, “Are you willing to be my spirit beast?”

At this point, the Earth Bear knew that only this man would be able to save it. It hurriedly nodded its head and was afraid that the madwoman would eat it if it took its time to answer.

Qin Haodong smiled, raised his hand, drew a hexagram, and dripped a drop of his blood into it.

Soon, the hexagram quickly disappeared. This drop of his blood turned into one ray of red light and shot into the Earth Bear’s forehead. In this way, he obtained another demonic beast that was equivalent to a master at the middle stage of the Grand Completion Realm.

With a thought, Qin Haodong put the Earth Bear into his Spirit Beast Pouch. The three of them rose into the air. Instead of going straight to Dragon City, they arrived at Little Dragon City first.

It was Lu Xiaoyao who gave him the information about the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits this time. Moreover, the geezer was not bad and had given him five extra low-level Immortal Crystals last time, so he could break through to the stage of the Grand Completion Realm.

Qin Haodong had always been a grateful person. Since he had refined the Vitality Pills, he had to give some benefits to the geezer.

After entering the city, they arrived at Lu Xiaoyao’s mansion. Without any notice, they went straight into the mansion.

With their current cultivation, the guards of the mansion were useless and did not notice their presence.

It was already evening. Lu Xiaoyao’s living room was lit. In addition to him, there were three people sitting in the room. They were Li Zhen, the first prince of Dragon Kingdom, Li Mengyao, the second princess, and Wang Minghai who lost an arm.

Qin Haodong waved to Niu Cuihua and He Ziwei, indicating that they should not go in first, but wait and see what was going on.

In the living room, Lu Xiaoyao was shocked when he saw the people from the Dragon Kingdom. Then he said with a smile, “Your Highness, shouldn’t you be guarding the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits on Thunder Mountain? Why are you here?”

According to the previous estimation, the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits would ripen after three days and it should not be time for them to ripen yet. He wondered why the three people suddenly came to his mansion.

“The Earthvein Spiritual Fruits are missing.”

Li Zhen’s face darkened. He had suffered heavy losses after his trip to Thunder Mountain this time. Two masters at the early stage of the Grand Completion Realm had died. Wang Minghai had to recuperate for a whole day before he recovered some strength.

However, Wang Minghai had lost an arm, which would greatly affect his strength in the future.

These things didn’t annoy Li Zhen. What infuriated him most was that the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits had been picked by someone. He had worked hard for a long time but didn’t get anything.

“What? The Earthvein Spiritual Fruits are lost? Who has the strength to steal them from your hands? And with that Earth Bear guarding them there. These fruits are not ripe yet. What’s the point in picking them?”

Lu Xiaoyao was really shocked by the news and asked a series of questions.

“I have yet to figure out what was going on. At any rate, when we were fighting with the Earth Bear at a painful price, the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits were picked by someone.”

Li Zhen said to Lu Xiaoyao, “President Lu, I just want to ask you where you went after we met at Thunder Mountain.”

Lu Xiaoyao quickly said, “Your Highness, are you suspecting me? The loss of the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits really has nothing to do with me.

“You took a fancy to the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits. Of course, I can’t compete with you. I returned to Little Dragon City on the same day. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the guards at the gate.”

Li Zhen did not doubt Lu Xiaoyao’s words. He knew that Lu Xiaoyao would not dare to openly compete with him for the treasures and even if Lu Xiaoyao had the courage to do that, he did not have the strength.

Then Li Zhen asked, “Who were those people with you that day? Where are they now?”

After thinking for these days, he felt that the three people with Lu Xiaoyao were most likely the ones who had done it.

Lu Xiaoyao said, “The three people? The young man is Dr. Qin Haodong. He cured me before.

“The two women are his two confidantes. After seeing you that day, we separated. They said that they wanted to go to Dragon City. We have not seen each other since.”

“Qin Haodong! The thief was Qin Haodong!” There was a flash of hatred in Li Mengyao’s eyes. “Brother, it must be this guy who stole the Earthvein Spiritual Fruits.”

Lu Xiaoyao was shocked and said, “No way, I think Dr. Qin is a good person.”

Li Mengyao gnashed her teeth and said, “You were deceived by him. How good can a person who colluded with Ghost King Sect be?”

“Collude with Ghost King Sect? It’s even more impossible!” Lu Xiaoyao said. “The day before yesterday, I was attacked by the Fifth and Sixth Elders of Ghost King Sect.

“At that time, I was powerless and was about to die. It was Dr. Qin and the others who killed the people of the Ghost King Sect and saved my life.”

Li Zhen said, “President Lu, you have been deceived by Qin Haodong. This should be the self-harming trick set up by the Ghost King Sect to gain your trust.”

“Self-harming trick? Is that even possible?”

Lu Xiaoyao’s face was full of disbelief. He saw Qin Haodong kill the Fifth Elder and the Sixth Elder of the Ghost King Sect with his own eyes. Even if the Ghost King Sect wanted to use the self-harming trick, they would not sacrifice such important people, would they?

Li Mengyao said, “When I was in Rosefinch Kingdom, I saw Qin Haodong with the First Elder of the Ghost King Sect. In order to save that woman, he didn’t even care about his own life.

“Who would believe that he didn’t collude with Ghost King Sect?”

Hearing their conversation, Niu Cuihua leaned over to Qin Haodong’s ear and said, “It seems that you can’t get rid of the label of colluding the woman of the Ghost King Sect.”

Qin Haodong smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter. I will not get rid of it. It’s nothing.”

He really didn’t care about these things, Ghost King Sect or the Four Kingdoms. His ultimate goal was to return to earth.
