Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 1448: Chapter 784: Reincarnation Gate (Part 2)

Then with another leap, the massive figure quickly disappeared into the dense darkness, charging toward a more distant battlefield.

Roar!

Howl!

Moo!

As he progressed forward, battling along the way, Zhao Sheng was virtually unbeatable, tearing apart over a dozen giant Beastmen in one go.

As more and more of the blood-red smoke merged into his body, his beast form continuously mutated, with his vital energy surging skyward before transforming into lustrous mercury blood, eventually fusing with blood flames to condense into a fist-sized, brilliantly glowing blood-colored Demon Core.

Meanwhile, his humanity and rationality were greatly suppressed, with his beast nature becoming uncontrollably overpowering, relentlessly impacting his reason with intense negative emotions.

Fortunately, Zhao Sheng’s cultivation of the mind was extremely profound, using an unwavering heart to suppress all beastly tendencies and negative emotions.

As time went on, Zhao Sheng’s activity range expanded to several thousand miles in radius.

The surrounding environment became increasingly eerie and frightening, with inexplicable bones scattered across the ground, tentacles dancing wildly like towering trees, ghost fire surging fiercely like tidal waves, and countless howls and screams echoing through the heavens and earth.

Zhao Sheng barreled through everything in his path, discovering that the Beastman monsters he encountered along the way had become increasingly scarce, while those appearing later were stronger and more difficult to deal with.

After tearing apart a six-headed bull demon, he searched for a long time before finally finding a White Bone Mountain, where a huge cave opened halfway up, from which came deafening snores.

When Zhao Sheng got within ten miles of the cave, the snores abruptly stopped, and a gigantic creature crawled out from the cavern.

This was a gigantic black bear, nearly twenty zhang tall even while crouching, with a head alone as large as half of Zhao Sheng’s body.

The foul air exhaled from the giant bear’s mouth whipped up a gale on the ground.

What was astonishing was that the bear’s fur gleamed with a metallic sheen, appearing smooth as a mirror yet covered with dense, mysterious beast markings.

The beast markings writhed and struggled continually, faint moans emanating from them.

Scanning the scene with his gaze, Zhao Sheng retreated a step, suddenly raising his two siege-hammer-like fists and slamming them into the ground.

Boom,

The ground trembled violently, instantly splitting into several enormous cracks, stretching thousands of feet long and unfathomably deep.

Upon witnessing this show of force, the giant bear’s eyes surprisingly revealed a human-like mockery and sarcasm.

"...Why are you humans so eager to die? Old Bear has already hidden in such a remote corner, yet people still come looking for me. I’ve killed too many, I’m too tired to kill anymore." The giant bear lazily sat cross-legged on the ground, suddenly speaking.

Zhao Sheng’s heart shook, and he parted his lips, forcing out words, "You... you... can... speak... human... language?"

His voice was halting, somewhat indistinct, as if he hadn’t spoken in a long time.

"Eating many humans makes one naturally learn to speak their language, not to mention..." The giant bear scratched its chin, the mockery in its eyes deepening.

"Not to mention what?" Zhao Sheng instinctively asked. He wanted to extract more information from the giant bear, so he didn’t act immediately.

"Ha ha, want to know the truth?... First, see if you’re qualified, roar!"

Before the words fell, the giant bear suddenly stood up, letting out a tremendous roar, and then its four paws stomped the ground, charging toward Zhao Sheng.

In mid-air, the giant bear’s size increased by fifty percent, and its entire body erupted with blinding black light, instantly transforming into a black iron behemoth, descending like lightning with an aura of endless destruction.

Zhao Sheng’s vision suddenly went pitch black, with the surrounding void solidifying like iron, imprisoning his body.

At the moment the giant bear collided with him, Zhao Sheng’s eyes burst with Divine Light, astoundingly hurling a punch heavenward, delivering a rising strike to the giant bear’s jaw.

With a clanging, deafening explosion, the void shattered into countless fissures, sending the giant bear flying backward, after which space-time ripples spread outward in all directions.

With one punch, more than half of the giant bear’s jaw was shattered, the overwhelming force propelling its body hundreds of feet backward, crashing fiercely into the White Bone Mountain, collapsing the entire mountain.

For a moment, the ground trembled violently, scattered bones and ghost flames flew everywhere, and dust filled the heavens and earth.

Zhao Sheng twisted his neck and suddenly reached out with his left hand to tear off his limp right arm, casually tossing it to the ground.

The next second, the severed spot of the right arm rapidly sprouted countless flesh buds, intertwining and merging to swiftly regenerate into a new arm.

With his power rapidly increasing, this beast form gradually developed some of the original owner’s Talent, such as Blood and Flesh Rebirth, Golden Muscle and Jade Bone Body, and so on.

The giant bear opposing him should also possess a "Golden Muscle and Jade Bone" Dharma Body and might have long reached an advanced state.

After Zhao Sheng successfully landed the punch, he didn’t strike again, merely waiting in place.

With a booming crash, the ruined Bone Mountain was violently obliterated, and the pitch-black giant bear staggered as it rose to its feet, its wounds healing at an astonishing speed.

"Ah... how satisfying! How many years has it been since Old Bear could feel a twinge of pain again!" The giant bear stood once more, uttering a satisfied moan, the ferocity in its eyes completely dissipating.

Zhao Sheng breathed out a fetid wind, growling deeply, "Sir, not going to fight anymore?"

"No more fighting! That punch alone proved you have the qualification to become our partner?" the giant bear plopped onto the ground, letting out a muffled roar.

"Partner?" Zhao Sheng couldn’t help but step forward, casting a vast shadow on the ground with his enormous form.

"I know you have many questions in your heart. Don’t rush, let Old Bear think carefully about where to start." The giant bear patted its head, surprisingly lowering its head to think without any guard.
