Chapter 390: The 393rd giant bear is a bit silly
“I’m right here, you big dumb bear.” Mu Can instantly leaped up and shouted loudly.
Upon hearing Mu Can’s voice, the Frost Giant Bear ignored the pain from its own recent strike and, using both paws, began to attack Mu Can, who kept dodging around on its back.
Boom!
“Come on, I’m right here, you didn’t hit me.”
Boom!
“Eh, you hit yourself again, I’m right here.”
Boom!
“Does it hurt, you big dumb bear?”
Mu Can continued to taunt the Frost Giant Bear, but with each slap of its paw, it failed to even graze Mu Can, instead leaving numerous marks on its own body. These scars evidenced how forcefully the Frost Giant Bear had been attacking.
The Frost Giant Bear simply didn’t have the strength left to respond to Mu Can. After a series of attacks, not only had it failed to hurt Mu Can in the slightest, but it had also inflicted many wounds on itself. It could only pant heavily, lacking the energy to even retort.
“Hey, big dumb bear, aren’t you hitting anymore? If you don’t hit me, I’ll hit you.” Mu Can said with a laugh, taking advantage of being smaller in size. To the Frost Giant Bear, Mu Can was like a tiny bug, extremely vexing and agile.
“Worthless little bug, do you think even if this bear doesn’t fight back, you could harm me? Hahaha.” The Frost Giant Bear didn’t take Mu Can seriously at all, laughing heartily with its head tilted back. The laughter echoed far and wide, filling the entire space, momentarily filled with just the sound of Frost Giant Bear’s boisterous laughter.
“Why not give it a try and see?” Mu Can smirked, fire attribute spiritual power surging in his hand, materializing a bright red lotus that looked like it was made of blood.
Upon closer inspection, each petal of the lotus was a dancing flame, while at the center emitted a faint green glow. Though it was green, from that pale green radiated a terrifying pressure, as if all the flames had been condensed into a single point.
“Hehe, everyone knows about my ice control skill. Now, let’s test my fire control skill.” Mu Can smirked.
If Mu Can’s control over ice attribute spiritual power could be considered the best in the Mortal World, his control over fire attribute spiritual power had now reached the pinnacle across the Three Realms, indeed the first across the Three Realms. Even Purple Cloud Immortal Venerable, who taught him the fire control skill, was no longer a match for him in the art of fire control.
Mainly, Mu Can had been incredibly fortunate. First, he got in touch with Purple Cloud, acquiring top-notch fire control methods as his entry into the skill. Knowing that Purple Cloud, as the Supreme of Alchemy Dao in the Immortal World, was already considered the best in fire control—it was easy to imagine where Mu Can started with his mastery of fire control.
Mu Can’s second serendipitous encounter was with the Mystic Dragon Nine Revolutions, a Cultivation Technique specifically designed by the Dragon Clan for humans. After absorbing the Dragon Ball, Mu Can directly gained the Fire Element Giant Dragon’s control over Fire Attribute Spiritual Power. That was the Dragon Clan’s innate talent. Even though the dragons were driven out of the Dragon Realm by an unnamed race, the strength of the Dragon Clan was beyond doubt. They were considered one of the top powers within the Three Realms. Despite their disappearance from the Immortal World, nobody dared to underestimate the power of the Dragon Clan.
The third point, and most importantly, after Mu Can’s first two fortuitous encounters, he also obtained a Fire Attribute wonder that had been sealed within the Ultimate Secret Manual, which supported the world within the manual. It was exactly this object that brought about a qualitative change in the Fire Attribute Spiritual Power within Mu Can’s body. The phrase “amassing strength quietly to unleash it powerfully” was in no way an exaggeration to describe him.
This was also Mu Can’s greatest gain in the Scripture Pavilion this time, possessing Dual Attributes of Ice and Fire. Each attribute of Spiritual Power alone, when utilized against an enemy, was already terrifyingly powerful. Moreover, the two contrasting kinds of Spiritual Power in Mu Can’s hands could even be combined to unleash a formidable attack. Coupled with the enhancement of Life Spiritual Power, Mu Can’s methods had long since been incomparable to his past self.
“Such an annoying odor, but do you really think you can hurt the great bear?” The Frost Giant Bear lay there languidly, so tired it was panting hard, not having the energy to even move.
Mu Can stood brazenly on the belly of the Frost Giant Bear, the lotus in his hand gleaming with a red light as insignificant as a spark in the eyes of the giant bear.
What is the normal reaction of someone seeing a spark land on their clothing? Many people might not even bother because such a tiny spark is inconsequential to heavy clothing.
Clearly, the Frost Giant Bear thought the same way, looking completely relaxed, as if it didn’t take Mu Can’s next actions seriously at all.
Seeing the Frost Giant Bear’s demeanor, Mu Can smiled. He held the Fire Attribute lotus high and directly threw the lotus towards the heart of the Frost Giant Bear.
“What a foolish guy.” The Frost Giant Bear even laughed aloud while watching Mu Can, and one couldn’t blame it. The Frost Giant Bear’s greatest strength was its defensive power, not only its own bodily defenses but also the Ice Attribute Spiritual Power contained within its skin, which made its resistance to blows extremely formidable.
This was why it had confidently attempted to swat Mu Can, who was on its fur, with all its might—because even with its own attacks, breaking through its skin was no simple task.
“What a foolish guy,” Mu Can thought to himself with a silent laugh. If it were an ordinary Fire Lotus, it might indeed be as the Frost Giant Bear thought, utterly unable to harm the thick-skinned bear. However, the Fire Lotus in Mu Can’s hand was blended with the powerful Life Force he had absorbed from the Bull-headed Giant Beast.
Mu Can had already tried it before. When this processed Life Force was mixed into Fire Attribute Spiritual Power, it acted like a catalyst, easily doubling the power of the Fire Lotus.
Don’t underestimate this doubling; even the power of the Ice and Fire Glass Lotus was merely one and a half times that of the pure Fire Lotus, requiring Mu Can’s most potent form to execute.
Mu Can believed that this ‘enhanced’ Fire Lotus would definitely leave the Frost Giant Bear with an unforgettable memory.
As the lotus in Mu Can’s hand traced a beautiful arc in the air, the flower suddenly closed up, reverting to a bud. The next moment, a brilliant light burst forth, and the lotus instantly bloomed. Against the massive form of the Star Frost Giant Bear, the tiny lotus, not even as large as a little fingernail, fell near the bear’s heart and exploded thunderously.
Boom!
Mu Can also squinted slightly, shielding his eyes from the intense burst of light.
