Chapter 272: Chapter 272 Golden Jade FlowerRoar!

    A roar from a mutant beast came from the side, drawing Zhong Lin’s attention.

    There are dangers within the secret realm, partly from other people, and partly from the mutant beasts living in the realm, called demon beasts by the people of Luoxing Islands.

    There aren’t many demon beasts in the Seven Star Secret Realm; after all, every two hundred years there’s a sweep, and many have been driven to extinction. Those that survive are either extremely weak or extremely strong.

    But wherever there are demon beasts, there are usually rare spirit herbs and spiritual medicine.

    Thinking of this, Zhong Lin immediately headed in the direction of the noise.

    Soon, he saw a giant bear chasing two youths.

    The two youths did not face the giant bear head-on but rather fought skillfully to wear it down.

    Both had Spirit Sea Realm cultivation, and judging by their attire, they seemed to be sect disciples. However, this giant bear’s skin was thick, and the majority of their attacks did nothing to break through, only making it angrier.

    At this moment, both of them saw Zhong Lin approaching, showing a more vigilant expression.

    But when they saw Zhong Lin’s cultivation level, one of them immediately shouted, "Friend, there are several Golden Jade Flowers in this bear’s lair. If you help us deal with it, we’ll split the spiritual medicine equally."

    Martial artists in the secret realm are untrustworthy, but many still band together for mutual benefit.

    These two were both at the Spirit Sea Realm, and Zhong Lin was at the Spirit Sea Realm as well.

    In this case, they naturally didn’t fear how Zhong Lin might act.

    If possible, Zhong Lin would also become a target in their hunting range.

    "Golden Jade Flower?"

    Upon hearing this, Zhong Lin’s eyes lit up. Such spiritual medicine is a main ingredient for crafting the Heavenly Repairing Pill and is extremely valuable.

    The Heavenly Repairing Pill is a Sixth Grade Elixir and a healing elixir capable of regrowing limbs, mending bones. Even for Spirit Embryo Realm, it can be repaired, thus it is very valuable.

    "Alright! It’s a deal."

    Zhong Lin’s lips curled into a slight smile, but his eyes were extremely cold.

    Others might be deceived by these two, but as a Pill Master, Zhong Lin was very knowledgeable about medicinal plants.

    The growth environment for Golden Jade Flowers is extremely harsh. It’s hard to find even one, let alone several, so usually, only one exists.

    As soon as he finished speaking, his entire person launched like a cannonball towards the giant bear.

    "Friend..."

    The two watched Zhong Lin’s actions and were dumbfounded, completely bewildered.

    We asked you to help, not to single-handedly fight. Sear?h the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    This was a demon beast! How could you directly charge in front of a demon beast?

    Shouldn’t you circle around and engage in battle?

    However, as soon as they spoke, they saw Zhong Lin reach the giant bear, clenching his fist, leaping up, his right arm like a God Demon drumming, glowing golden, punching through layers of air, smashing solidly on the bear’s head.

    Boom!

    Under Zhong Lin’s punch, the giant bear’s skull shattered, its sharp teeth broke and flew out.

    Its massive five-meter-tall body was smashed a third into the ground, creating a huge pit.

    From afar, the two were left dumbstruck, their bodies trembling, staring blankly at Zhong Lin, a sense of fear arising spontaneously.

    "Where’s the Golden Jade Flower?"

    The older youth on the left swallowed with difficulty, saying, "There... there it is." from the nearby forest.

    Just a moment ago they thought Zhong Lin was on the same level as them, looking more like a loose cultivator from his attire, and they thought they could easily manage him with their combined strength.

    But that single punch forced them to rethink, wondering if he was a Spirit Embryo Realm martial artist hiding his strength?

    Impossible.

    A Spirit Embryo Realm martial artist wouldn’t be able to enter the secret realm, it would definitely cause a commotion.

    "Senior brother, isn’t the Earth-shaking Bear known for its immense strength and tough body? How could this happen?"

    The younger youth swallowed hard, his face pale, asking his senior brother.

    Normal demon beasts, or mutant beasts, usually have combat power stronger than martial artists of the same level.

    They were willing to fight the Earth-shaking Bear just for the Golden Jade Flower it guarded.

    But they never expected that the Earth-shaking Bear which they had to slowly exhaust could be killed in one punch, making them question their own existence.

    "This person must have trained in body-type martial arts, so speak politely later."

    "Body-type martial arts..."

    The junior also gasped, body-type martial arts are known for their difficulty, extremely hard to cultivate, and involve immense pain during training.

    The main point is that once one breaks through to the Spirit Embryo Realm, the body naturally becomes strong, with no need for specialized training.

    So those willing to train in body martial arts either despair at breaking through or are ruthless.

    Neither is easy to deal with.

    "Senior brother, why don’t we run? There’s only one Golden Jade Flower, if he gets angry, we..."

    The senior youth also showed a bitter smile; he never expected the random helper to be this ruthless, making him filled with regret.

    "Running isn’t an option; his strength is greater than ours and he can easily catch us. Hand over all the spiritual medicines we’ve collected."

    "Ah!"

    The junior clearly understood his senior brother’s intention, showing reluctance, gritting his teeth, eventually handing over all the spiritual medicines they collected.

    Meanwhile, Zhong Lin reached the bear demon’s lair and indeed found a silver-white flower, resembling gold but not gold, jade but not jade next to the lair.

    He effortlessly picked the Golden Jade Flower, sealed it in a jade box to prevent loss of efficacy.

    "Going back, I can refine a batch of Heavenly Repairing Pills, greatly enhancing my survivability." Zhong Lin said joyfully.

    Returning contentedly, he saw the two brothers hadn’t left, and laid a pile of spirit herbs and spiritual medicine before them.

    "We greet the senior, we brothers were rude earlier, all the spirit herbs and spiritual medicines we’ve gathered are gifted to the senior to seek forgiveness."

    Their attitude was extremely respectful, fearing offending Zhong Lin.

    They didn’t even dare mention their sect, afraid that this "loose cultivator martial artist" Zhong Lin might harbor a grudge against sect disciples.

    Zhong Lin glanced at the herbs and medicines before the two, the yield was no less than his, including several very precious spiritual medicines.

    He looked at them with some appreciation.

    "Quite adaptable, scram!"

    "Thank you, senior."

    The two dared not linger, retreating a few steps before turning and fleeing, Spiritual Origin fully mobilized, fearing Zhong Lin would change his mind.

    Zhong Lin didn’t mind, waving his right hand to collect all the spirit herbs and medicines into his storage bracelet, not even sparing the bear demon’s corpse.

    Bear paw, bear gall, and bear blood are extremely valuable materials, especially the bear skin, which can be used to make leather armor.
