STAYING ALIVE CAUTIOUSLY IN THE CELESTIAL REALM AND BECOMING THE STRONGEST
Chapter 828 - Chapter 828: Chapter 828: Battle of Spells (Middle)Chapter 828: Chapter 828: Battle of Spells (Middle)
Longbows, war sabers, daggers, and leather armor are standard equipment for every disciple at White Deer Academy.
The value of any single piece of this equipment is far beyond what an ordinary civilian family can afford, and the quality is exceptionally high.
The bows are strongbows, the arrows are sharp arrows, and specially crafted tri-edge metal arrowheads possess superb armor-piercing capabilities, penetrating even armor at close range, a power that these third and fourth tier fierce beasts simply cannot withstand.
The wolf pack that had just burst out of the forest fell down in heaps like wheat sheared by a scythe.
Seeing such a scene, the young men were greatly heartened.
Holding sharp weapons and backed by numerous martial masters, not to mention the protection of Wang Chen, the Immortal Master Head, if they still didn’t dare to battle the fierce beasts, they might as well just buy a block of tofu and kill themselves by smashing their heads against it.
All fear vanished from their hearts, and cries of excitement erupted.
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
More arrows shot out swiftly, raining down upon the heads of the beasts and instantly stirring up gales of bloody rain.
Although these young men lacked much practical experience, they were numerous and bold. After initially chaotic scenes, their performance improved increasingly.
Strangely enough, fierce beasts continued to charge through the arrow rain, batch after batch, seemingly unafraid to die.
Even with bodies strewn all over the ground, they still roared, trampling over the corpses of their companions as they surged forward going after the young men.
This was quite unusual.
Since fierce beasts possess a certain degree of intelligence, under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t seek death knowing they were bound to die, and their attack methods wouldn’t appear so rigid and stiff.
It almost felt as though they were deliberately sent to let the White Deer disciples practice archery!
The youths, however, were overheated by their flaring passions, immersed in the thrill of the skirmish and hardly concerned with such details, much less thinking through them.
They didn’t even realize that Wang Chen had already quietly left.
At this moment, Wang Chen was standing on a mountain three miles away, a figure in white garments, Hu Jiaojiao, by his side, clutching a golden, shining bell in her hand.
The Bell of Ten Thousand Beasts.
Both of their attentions were focused on the area where the battle raged.
Despite the blockage of the mist, Hu Jiaojiao, holding The Bell of Ten Thousand Beasts, had a clear grasp of the situation there!
Suddenly, she asked, “More than fifteen hundred now, should we continue?”
“Almost enough,”
Wang Chen replied, “Let’s end it.”
Yes, the sudden appearance of the beasts was not accidental, but a “performance” he had arranged in advance!
After Wang Chen had slain Jiyun and obtained The Bell of Ten Thousand Beasts, he restored part of the bell’s spiritual essence following the Dharma Technique taught by Elder Yao and passed it on to Hu Jiaojiao for control.
With this magical treasure, Hu Jiaojiao could venture deep into the forests and manipulate thousands of fierce beasts.
The fierce beasts attacking the White Deer disciples were all under Hu Jiaojiao’s control, which is why the greenhorns killed so freely.
Of course, this was just the start; the “leveling” difficulty for them would keep increasing!
“Okay,”
Hu Jiaojiao nodded and shook the golden bell in her hand.
The clear bell sound instantly spread in all directions.
Almost simultaneously, the fierce beasts, still assaulting the White Deer disciples, suddenly changed direction and scattered, vanishing into the vast forest in the blink of an eye.
Leaving behind the corpses littered all over the ground.
The excited young men, having suddenly lost their targets, looked at each other in bewilderment.
This encounter had started abruptly, and it ended even more abruptly!
They all found it somewhat difficult to adapt.
“Alright.”
An Innate Martial Artist swooped in, his voice solemn, “Stop dawdling and start gathering the spoils of battle!”
It was then that everyone snapped out of their daze and, under the supervision and guidance of the martial masters, began to practice the Disassembly Technique.
The Disassembly Technique is not a Dharma Technique but an essential skill that hunters must master. It seems simple, but in reality, it involves profound knowledge.
Most Fierce Beasts are treasures from head to toe — their skin, flesh, tendons, blood, bones, claws, and teeth all have uses, making the handling process quite complicated.
If handled well, the value of the prey can be maximally preserved.
Otherwise, it would be nothing short of wasteful slaughter!
These White Deer Disciples had previously learned the Disassembly Technique with the martial masters and even had an “internship” opportunity.
However, most of the Fierce Beasts that had besieged White Deer Academy last time were blasted into char by lightning, leaving only a few intact, so not everyone could get hands-on immediately.
Now, they could finally revisit this technique.
Piece by piece, the bloody Beast Skins were peeled off, and large chunks of Beast Meat were sliced away. Ignoring the pungent smell, they exerted themselves to the utmost to strip away useful materials, pulling tendons, extracting bones, plucking teeth, shaving claws, and not sparing even a single hair.
As for the arrows that had been shot earlier, of course, they retrieved as many as possible.
Among the first batch of White Deer Disciples were many children from poor families who knew the value of these items and refused to waste a bit.
Following that, piles of campfires were set up, and the sliced Beast Meat was hung on makeshift racks to start smoking.
The weather was a bit hot, so if they didn’t hurry with the smoking, the fresh Beast Meat would easily spoil and rot.
At first, everyone was not very skilled and mistakes were inevitable.
Some materials were wasted.
However, under the stern reprimands of the martial masters, they quickly grew in astonishing speed.
With more such practice, these youngsters, even if they could not become powerful Martial Artists, would be excellent hunters!
From day to night, three thousand White Deer Disciples camped in the mountains and forests.
The blazing firelight dispersed the darkness and fog, and everyone gathered around the campfire to enjoy the spoils they had personally hunted, joy and satisfaction evident on every young face.
And the Qi of Humanity they exuded silently merged into Wang Chen’s body,
Condensing into specks of Spiritual Light.
Wang Chen took a deep breath, his Cultivation Level unknowingly ascended another level.
This method of cultivation was something he had never tried before, but its effects were unexpectedly powerful.
Most importantly, it was something Wang Chen had realized on his own!
He faintly sensed the limit of the Entry Tao realm.
Given time, he was certain to ascend to the highest level!
And the three thousand White Deer Academy Disciples gained equally tremendous rewards.
In the following days, they continued deeper into the mountain range, harvesting medicinal herbs and hunting Fierce Beasts with increasingly adept skills.
When these youngsters returned to the academy, each was carrying a huge Beast Skin bundle.
Inside were the full spoils of battle.
And compared to when they had left, they now exuded a ferocious blood aura —
A blood aura that could only be condensed through real combat!
The first generation of White Deer Disciples was growing rapidly in such a manner.
Since they were completely self-sufficient, the blockades and suppressions directed against White Deer Academy and Mercy World Medicine Manor by certain powers in Taiwu City had all become a joke.
