Chapter 59: Blood Meridian Power

“Master Ou, based on your eyesight, it’s honestly such a pity that you’re not an archer,” Jiang Chengwei said in a rather regretful tone.

Ou Yangming giggled and paid attention to the situation ahead without saying a word. However, due to the distance and the fact that the Brown Earth Bear was still asleep, he did not have a clear picture of what was going on.

Jiang Chengwei mentioned softly, “Master Ou, I’m making a move.”

Ou Yangming raised his eyebrows. “Okay, I’m looking forward to it.”

Jiang Chengwei nodded lightly, then retrieved his bow from behind, and placed an explosive arrow on it.

It was then when Ou Yangming sensed a subtle and unexplainable change in Jiang Chengwei’s body.

Although Jiang Chengwei was a squad leader, a squad leader was normally the one with the most profound cultivation base in a squad. Furthermore, there were very few squad leaders who were also archers in the military, but each of them was convincingly and remarkably strong.

Sure enough, the natural aura and confidence that were shown by Jiang Chengwei were unordinary.

It was as though Jiang Chengwei, who was drawing his bow at the moment, had unleashed an aura that was not inferior to Yu Hailiang’s at all.

“Whoosh—”

He shot the arrow at last.

The Brown Earth Bear was asleep, but it curled up its body to hide his belly and parts of its body that were soft. Hence, Jiang Chengwei aimed the arrow at the outer side of its belly.

After being enhanced by the Military Fire, the High Grade arrow had 15 points of Sharpness.

Even though the brown bear’s body was tough, which was difficult to be hurt by weapons, Jiang Chengwei’s arrow penetrated its skin.

“Roar… Thud…”

The Brown Earth Bear instantly awoke. It was not actually sound asleep before this because it was accumulating his power to break its blood meridians’ shackles.

Therefore, it quickly woke up when it was attacked.

Needless to say, a normal attack could not have scratched its skin at all, but Jiang Weicheng’s arrow was out of the ordinary.

Just as the Brown Earth Bear came round and did a thunderous roar, the arrow on its skin exploded, causing countless shards to shoot out.

The might of the explosion from the explosive arrow was much more powerful than when Jiang Chengwei shot it.

Following that, with the outer side of the Brown Earth Bear’s belly as the center, numerous iron shards shot into its body as if a hornet’s nest had just been disturbed.

Being caught off guard by the attack, the brown bear’s roar sounded different halfway through. The half-spirit beast exhaled deeply, and almost choked to death.

Jiang Chengwei maintained a straight face, then drew its bow again to shoot another arrow.

The arrow was as fast as a shooting star, and was as frightening as thunder. It zoomed out in a flash, and struck the Brown Earth Bear’s belly.

While the brown bear was being attacked, it was still vigilant. It somewhat covered its face and head intentionally with its paw. If one wanted to shoot its eyes or its throat, even if that person was Jiang Chengwei, he might not succeed. After all, the bear’s paw was not to be taken lightly, thus Jiang Chengwei had to aim at the spot that he was most confident about to increase the success rate.

The Brown Earth Bear was heavily damaged again as almost half of the arrowhead had penetrated its body.

Jiang Chengwei did not say a word, but was full of admiration.

He was aware of his arrow’s might since he had fought against the brown bear before, hence he knew very well that he was only able to achieve this because of Ou Yangming’s efforts.

The might of a High Grade Rank One arrow and one at the peak of High Grade were completely different.

“Pow!”

The explosive arrow exploded again, and the area below the Brown Earth Bear’s belly was full of holes, which was a scene too ghastly to look at.

Once the brown bear roared painfully, it suddenly turned around to look in the direction where the arrow was shot, then began running.

Ou Yangming’s face changed. It was an explosive arrow that was even covered in crushed Bewitching Grass. Another ferocious beast would have been dead or unconscious by now.

On the opposite, the Brown Earth Bear seemed to be severely injured, but was still full of vigor and combat power.

Jiang Chengwei was well-prepared, thus he drew his bow again to launch the third arrow.

Ou Yangming naturally knew why Jiang Chengwei was in such a hurry; he was using an explosive arrow. The arrow had an enormous might, but it had a drawback, which was it could not be used during an encirclement. This was because the shards that were shot out would hurt anyone around it.

Therefore, Jiang Chengwei must shoot all three arrows before Yu Hailiang and the others attacked.

Instead of shooting the last arrow on the Brown Earth Bear’s neck, he aimed at its right leg instead.

The arrow exploded after it was shot, and it caused a fairly deep wound on the brown bear’s leg.

Despite that, the Brown Earth Bear only staggered a bit, and continued charging in their direction. The Earth seemed to be shaking with each step it took, which made clear its terrifying power.

“Go!”

Jiang Chengwei turned pale. Even though he only shot three arrows, he seemed to have emptied his power. His aura weakened as a result, and he was not as quick-witted and confident as he was earlier.

Ou Yangming was moved as he quickly understood something.

As expected, archers were different from normal martial artists. Their power could be unleashed in the shortest time possible, but they would turn weak once all their power was released.

Jiang Chengwei leaped down from the tree at once, and ran toward where the other archers were lying in ambush.

Ou Yangming hesitated, then decided to observe from another tree beside him instead of following him.

Subsequently, Yu Hailiang and the others appeared. They did not obstruct the Brown Earth Bear from the front because it was undoubtedly dumb to resist the bear forcefully at this moment. Yu Hailiang would not do that for sure.

Nonetheless, it would be fine to go around in circles with a heavily injured half-spirit beast.

However, Yu Hailiang and the others quickly noticed that the Brown Earth Bear was different from before. It did not bother about them, and was still charging crazily at the big tree where Jiang Chengwei shot the arrows from.

The injuries that the brown bear suffered triggered its guts, hence it was determined to crush the fellow that hurt him. In other words, it wanted to get rid of the most threatening archer first.

Before long, it was already under the big tree, but it did not decelerate at all. With a fearsome power, it crashed its giant body into the big tree.

The big tree underwent an undeserving accident as it was broken by the Brown Earth Bear.

A deafening sound was heard when it tilted and collapsed to the ground.

Ou Yangming was dumbstruck because the power was simply unbelievable. If a person was crashed like that, one would not survive even if one had full armor and a shield.

Fortunately, he and Jiang Chengwei had left the big tree, or they would end up like the tree.

The Brown Earth Bear did not see any trace of humans after crashing into the tree, so it turned and roared while charging at Yu Hailiang and the others.

Yu Hailiang advanced and retreated in an orderly manner around the brown bear. When the bear stormed in one direction, those who were in the other direction attacked it by stabbing its wounds with their weapons. Once it changed its direction, the soldiers reversed their roles by retreating, by which those who were falling back just now attacked instead.

Although the soldiers were not from the same camp, they were extremely familiar with the formation as they were alites, and they cooperated very well without making any mistakes.

In actual fact, they knew that it was impossible for them to kill their Brown Earth Bear by relying on their military power. Even though the bear was covered in blood, and they stabbed its wounds with their sharp weapons to inflict some extra yet minor damages, their powers could not cause anything noteworthy.

What made them confident was actually the Bewitching Grass that was spread on the arrows. As long as the medicine showed its effects, the Brown Earth Bear would not be able to withstand it.

As time passed, the brown bear became slower, and it was also moving clumsily. Especially its injured right leg that caused it to limp as though it was going to fall soon.

Yu Hailiang’s eyes glowed as it yelled, “Brothers, hold on, it’s almost down!”

The others responded to him in high fighting spirits. They were very confident because victory was in sight.

On the other hand, Jiang Chengwei, who had gathered with the other archers, was anxious because Ou Yangming was nowhere to be found. He wanted to look for the master, but the situation did not allow him to.

Luckily, Ou Yangming was not seen on the big tree when it fell, hence Jiang Chengwei was slightly relieved.

Seeing as the Brown Earth Bear was slowly becoming less of a threat, he exhaled deeply, and was no longer that concerned.

Just as everyone thought that the brown bear was exhausted and had no chance of escaping, it suddenly opened its arms and straightened its body, then roared at the sky like never before.

Next, an earthly yellow light was emitted from its body, which enveloped it right away.

“Oh no, it incited its Blood Meridian Power, retreat! Retreat!” Yu Hailiang yelled, and he sounded terrified.

As he panicked, a bitter thought crossed his mind.

“Our efforts are wasted, our efforts are wasted. I can’t believe this happened when we’re so close to victory.’

The soldiers’ faces changed as well, and everyone quickly backed off.

As for the Brown Earth Bear, it lowered its head after curbing the light, and its eyes were filled with a fit of despairing yet resentful anger.
