Chapter 141: Ancestor of the Bear Mountain

Obviously, there were no roads in the Black Mist Zone.
This made the progress of the car slow and bumpy.
Constant vibrations surged through, causing Lolita’s face to turn pale, with a risk of motion sickness.
It could be fortunate or unfortunate.
Lolita’s motion sickness risk soon disappeared.
However, this was because at some point, dozens of pairs of green eyes had already locked onto the car.
Both Maggie and Bai Tianyu had said that danger was everywhere in the Black Mist Zone.
There were zombies, demons, and strange creatures of all shapes and sizes here. However, the ones with the most numbers were the exotic beasts!
What Lu Ming did not know was that the territory of the Black Mist Zone that the people from Nanxiang had descended actually had an owner. It was just like how ferocious beasts in the natural world had their own territories.
However, the territories of the ferocious beasts in the Black Mist Zone were tens to hundreds of times larger.
As it happened, the overlord of this area was someone who had appeared in Nanxiang City before.
It was the ancient ancestor of the Six-legged Wolf Bear.
Or more precisely, this place was the hunting ground of the Six-legged Wolf Bears. The people from Nanxiang were the invaders.
Or perhaps food?
Bear Mountain was located in the center of this area.
It was the territory of the ancient ancestor of the Six-legged Wolf Bear.
Creatures like the Six-legged Wolf Bear were similar to jackals in the natural world on Earth. Within the Black Mist Zone, their individual combat strength was not that strong, and their group combat strength was not impressive either.
However, the mystery factors that filled the Black Mist Zone brought endless possibilities to all living creatures.
The ancestor of the Six-legged Wolf Bear was such an anomaly.
It was born with an extremely strong affinity for mystery factors.
A normal adult Six-legged Wolf Bear only had the strength of a Tier 4. A small portion of them could reach Tier 5, and the Six-legged Wolf Bear ancient ancestor was already Tier 7 when he reached adulthood!
Its immense strength gave it a long lifespan.
And its long lifespan brought it even greater strength and intelligence, comparable to that of a superbeast.
To put it simply, the intelligence of an ordinary Six-legged Wolf Bear was not much different from that of a smart dog in the natural world.
The intelligence of the Six-legged Wolf Bear ancestor was almost on par with that of a normal human.
It could think.
Naturally, it could also gather information.
Naturally, it could do much more!
At this moment, on the peak of Bear Mountain.
The Wolf Bear ancestor, who was ten meters wide and nearly 50 meters long, stood tall and looked down upon its territory.
Its eyes were sharp and spirited, and it was in its prime.
It firmly believed that it would lead its tribe to a new height!
“Howl!”
(With the appearance of the new wave of people who underwent tribulations, this is the best opportunity for me!)
Its exceptional intelligence and long lifespan allowed the Wolf Bear ancestor to know many secrets unknown to others.
When the Black Mist first cracked, the ancestor of the Bear Mountain realized that a huge opportunity lay before it and its tribe.
Unfortunately, as rumored, the restriction of the Black Mist prevented high-level creatures from entering Nanxiang, this newbie village. At that time, the Six-legged Wolf Bear ancestor tried its best to break through but could not go to Nanxiang.
The Bear Mountain ancestor could only send the warriors of its tribe to explore Nanxiang City first.
His intention was good and wise.
However, the problem was that its subordinates were indeed not very competent.
Those ordinary Six-legged Wolf Bears crossed the Black Mist and entered Nanxiang and, without the restraints of the Ancestor, they quickly immersed themselves in the joy of filling their stomachs.
One group was first slaughtered by Lu Ming.
Another group was swallowed by the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.
Only a few smaller ones successfully returned with the intelligence.
At this moment, there was such a returnee beside the Wolf Bear ancestor.
“Howl!”
(How’s their strength over there?)
“Howl!”
(Ancestor, they’re not very strong…)
Of course, they were not very strong.
This was because those Six-legged Wolf Bears that had seen true experts had either turned into were already reduced to excrement…
In short, these ordinary Six-legged Wolf Bears could only achieve this much.
The Wolf Bear ancestor did not dwell on this.
This was because from the intelligence it received, the strength of the first generation of those who underwent tribulations was fundamentally non-threatening.
At this moment, Nanxiang was completely engulfed by the Black Mist.
With its extraordinary vision, the Bear Mountain ancestor vaguely saw that some people who underwent tribulations were appearing in its territory.
The prey had already gathered.
This made the Bear Mountain ancestor grin, and its expression became even more ferocious.
“Howl!”
(Previously, some brats saw that they had established a base in Barren City, right?)
The brats also let out a howl.
(Yes, Ancestor.)
Therefore, the Bear Mountain ancient ancestor strode down the mountain.
It slowly walked in the direction of the ancient city ruins, leisurely like a general about to win a huge battle. In the Bear Mountain, more Six-legged Wolf Bears crawled out of the crack of the mountain. Most of them followed the ancestor, and a small portion scattered in all directions.
The ancestor’s roar sounded again and was reflected in the ears of all the Six-legged Wolf Bears.
“Howl!”
(The flesh and blood of Tribulation Transcenders are greatly nourishing! Brats, the opportunity has been delivered to you. Whether you can seize it or not depends entirely on yourselves!)
“It’s really dangerous in the Black Mist Zone…”
Inside the car, Lu Ming muttered.
Then, the car stopped. Lu Ming looked at the other three, “Protect yourselves. I’ll be back soon.”
With that, he opened the car door and got out.
As soon as the tall and burly Lu Ming got out of the car, he immediately felt the surrounding exotic beasts had retreated slightly—because Lu Ming’s figure was really quite intimidating.
However, beasts were still beasts.
Be it exotic beasts or wild beasts, they were mostly driven by their instincts. Moreover, the instincts of exotic beasts told them that the man in front of them was just slightly taller and stronger and his true level was actually not that high.
It was just all a show.
Some of the slightly smarter Six-legged Wolf Bears even recalled what the ancestor had said earlier.
Tribulationists, eat them, and power up!
Although they did not know what tribulationists were.
However, they understood eating and power up.
Therefore, they eagerly rushed forward.
— Clearly, they were not as smart as they imagined.
Lu Ming only felt a fishy wind blowing at his face.
Under the lead of a few smart ones, dozens of Six-legged Wolf Bears launched a fierce attack on Lu Ming almost simultaneously!
In just a few seconds, the Six-Legged Wolf Bear in the lead had already rushed in front of Lu Ming!
It bared its fangs and brandished its claws.
It was ferocious!
It was ready to bite Lu Ming’s throat in one go.
Until it saw the tall man in front of it lightly throw a punch.
Then, it did not know anything else…
The three women in the car saw Lu Ming’s punch clearly.
They could not see the movement when Lu Ming threw the punch; they could only hear a loud “boom” and then see a condensed, crescent-shaped shockwave ripple out from in front of Lu Ming!
It was difficult to imagine that the force from the punch could have the shape of a saber qi—but this was the power of a perfect level Explosive Fist!
The three women did not know if its lethality was terrifying… Because the
Six-legged Wolf Bear closest to Lu Ming was instantly blasted into meat scraps.
The force of the punch remained condensed and did not disperse, sweeping towards the distance at an even faster speed!
The second Six-legged Wolf Bear that just came into contact with the fist force was similarly also shattered into pieces, and so was the third one…
In short, this force was like a bulldozer, leveling everything in front of Lu Ming! It traveled nearly a hundred meters before it finally exploded with a loud bang, shaking the military vehicle several times.
Looking at the bloody mess in front of him, Lu Ming scratched his head awkwardly.
“I used too much force…”
After all, these were all top-notch food. Now, they could only be used as meat filling..
