329: Blow them up, blow them all up!

The three walked into the uneven mountainous terrain, where the map was now completely useless.

Then, in their line of sight ahead, jagged, strange mountains gradually rose and appeared from the horizon.

Just then, a Fossil Pterosaurs spread its wings and flew over their heads.

Shen Bei took a look, then flipped through his notebook.

"There's a mission for this!"

Shen Bei was excited.

At this moment, Zhuang Bifan's face was dark: "Fossil Pterosaurs are Family-dwelling Vicious Beasts, and their rank is also between Five and Six. Although their numbers are not large, each adult is very difficult to deal with. Can we go around them?"

"Are you against money?"

Shen Bei said indifferently.

If I don't do missions, how can I activate the panel?

If I don't activate the panel, how can I become stronger?

Do you really think I can gain four-dimensional attributes just by tempering my body?

That's all supported by cheats.

If I have cheats, I have to use them!

Let them gather dust?

At the same time, Shen Bei explained: "My goal is just the shed skin in its nest. I'll take the lead. You two must try your best to avoid direct conflict with them. As soon as we get the shed skin, we'll retreat immediately."

Zhuang Bifan rubbed his forehead, then asked: "Patron, what do you say?"

After all, this trip to Black Furnace City was, on the surface, led by Fang Nanxi.

She had paid, so her suggestion to take a detour would be justifiable.

But Fang Nanxi didn't dare to decide Shen Bei's actions. She shrank her neck and said, "I, I can't control him, but you must guarantee my safety."

"Of course."

Shen Bei's hands and feet trembled. Even if I die, I can't let you die here; you'll still be very useful later.

"I'm really speechless."

Zhuang Bifan rolled his eyes.

Shen Bei waved his hand: "Stop dawdling, let's go."

Strange rocks were jagged, the peaks desolate, and the wind whistled through the oddly shaped rocks, making sounds like ghosts wailing and wolves howling.

The three moved like swift leopards, darting and weaving through the mountain ravines, making their way to the foot of the rightmost side of the ravine.

"Screech—! Screech—!"

Hair-raising screeches echoed intermittently in the sky above.

Hiding behind a cover, Shen Bei looked up and saw powerful creatures with ash-colored bodies and bony wings, resembling ancient pterosaurs, continuously rushing out from a huge cave halfway up the mountain, circling and screeching in the sky, as if patrolling their territory.

These creatures were comparable in size to lions and tigers, with sharp claws and teeth. Their wingspan was five or six meters, and their bony wings were like blades, even reflecting a metallic luster. They moved like the wind, swift as lightning, like kings of the sky.

"Those are the Fossil Pterosaurs."

Quietly approaching Shen Bei, Zhuang Bifan lowered his head and whispered:

"These Vicious Beasts have sharp claws and teeth, steel-like bones, and their body defense is incredibly strong. The large cave halfway up the mountain is their nest. According to intelligence from other regions, the number of Fossil Pterosaurs inside one cave is about twenty."

Shen Bei felt this intelligence was nonsense.

A social creature, if you provoke one, you'll definitely attract a whole group.

The number of Vicious Beasts is not something that can be controlled by humans.

"Wait for me here. I'll go myself."

With that, Shen Bei immediately activated King Kong Indestructible, his skin glowing silver-white, and he charged out.

In the eyes of Zhuang Bifan and Fang Nanxi, Shen Bei was acting like a madman!

Fang Nanxi's eyelids twitched, and she whispered, "He, he's always been so reckless. Has he never suffered a loss?"

This question made Zhuang Bifan a little difficult to answer.

Had Shen Bei ever suffered a loss in his previous battles and killings?

He definitely had, he wasn't a Martial God after all.

But every loss he suffered, he retaliated with extremely brutal and bloody methods.

Zhuang Bifan cleared his throat a few times: "Perhaps... he will suffer a loss in the future? A huge loss, like getting completely cut down."

Fang Nanxi: ...

...

Just as Shen Bei stomped hard, and his whole body shot out like an arrow from a bow, no longer concealing himself.

The Fossil Pterosaurs' extremely keen vision spotted Shen Bei, and several excited screeches came from the sky:

"Screech, screech!"

The Fossil Pterosaurs diving from the sky were even more ferocious and swift, not much slower than Shen Bei's explosive charge.

When Shen Bei was still one or two hundred meters from the nest, the leading Fossil Pterosaurs had already swooped down like a fighter jet, carrying a fierce wind, and extended a pair of menacing sharp claws, grabbing down towards Shen Bei!

Clang! Bang!

The next moment, sparks flew from Shen Bei's twin blades, and the sound of the battle-blades being drawn from their sheaths and metal colliding rang out simultaneously.

It was Shen Bei instantly drawing his battle-blades and striking first, bending at the waist, a blade cutting through the air, preemptively slashing at the chest and abdomen of the attacking pterosaur!

However, his swift slash, which would normally easily disembowel a fierce beast and cut it in half, did not cause any serious injury to this Fossil Pterosaurs.

Shen Bei saw clearly that amidst the flying sparks, only a shallow cut appeared between the Fossil Pterosaurs' chest and abdomen, not even counting as a minor injury!

Swish!

Shen Bei's powerful slash caused the Fossil Pterosaurs to deviate its direction, but it let out an angry screech and continued to pounce towards Shen Bei, using its momentum.

"Good, come on."

Shen Bei decisively abandoned his twin blades.

Without using the Star Constellation Intermittent Kill, the twin blades themselves weren't very threatening.

And using the Star Constellation Intermittent Kill required a large amount of True Qi.

The cost-effectiveness wasn't very high.

To deal with this Fossil Pterosaurs, blunt force was more practical.

What is a blunt weapon?

Naturally, it was Shen Bei's fists!

He chuckled, put away his twin blades, simply clenched his five fingers, then suddenly took a step forward, punched through the air, and struck with a later but faster blow, fiercely hitting the chest and abdomen of this Fossil Pterosaurs.

Bang!

A dull air explosion mixed with surging strong winds blew out. Under Shen Bei's punch, which was like a cannonball, the chest and abdomen of this Fossil Pterosaurs suddenly caved in, and a slight cracking sound of bones burst out, causing it to let out a piercing shriek and its heavy body to fly backward in the opposite direction at an even faster speed!

This strength and physique...!

Even while charging, seeing Shen Bei, bare-handed, injure and send flying a Fossil Pterosaurs, known for its steel-like bones and thick skin, both Zhuang Bifan and Fang Nanxi's eyelids twitched violently.

Zhuang Bifan knew very well how astonishing the Fossil Pterosaurs' surface defense was. He had fought these things in the underground caves before, and they were extremely annoying.

In that battle, Zhuang Bifan had to use various Martial Skills consecutively to barely blow up a Fossil Pterosaurs.

Now, looking at it, it was the same Vicious Beast, but the damage caused by his Martial Skills was actually not as good as Shen Bei's bare hands!

This truly startled Zhuang Bifan, who couldn't imagine what astonishing power was contained within Shen Bei's body!

"Are this guy's attributes all real attributes? Can he exert 100% in combat too?"

Zhuang Bifan sniffed and muttered to himself: "A pervert who entered the Martial Dao two and a half years ago!"

"It's indeed quite tough."

Unaware of the thoughts in Zhuang Bifan and Fang Hanxi's minds, although he had overwhelmingly repelled a Fossil Pterosaurs, Shen Bei couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

That punch just now, he had actually used Martial Skill: Heart-Piercing Cannon Hammer. With his current strength, if a Five-Rank Martial Artist took such a punch, he would instantly suffer broken bones and tendons, or even die on the spot.

But this Five-Rank Fossil Pterosaurs seemed unfazed after taking that punch and continued to pounce, which surprised him.

Although he also hadn't brought out his true strength, it was enough to show that this type of Fossil Pterosaurs indeed had steel-like bones.

Their individual strength might not be as great as the two Red-Eyed Giant Apes he had killed, but their body hardness was even superior.

"Screech, screech!"

Piercing screeches continued to erupt, and even a few Fossil Pterosaurs from the nest were attracted out, immediately swooping down to join the siege.

But Shen Bei's fighting style was extremely violent. Every move he made carried immense power. Although these Fossil Pterosaurs had steel-like bones, as long as they were hit by his punch, they would definitely be thrown back like cannonballs on the spot.

Although it couldn't cause fatal damage when Shen Bei wasn't using his full strength, it effectively created openings in the Fossil Pterosaurs' fierce attacks. In this way, Shen Bei, like a tank, used pure violence to force them back, and charged directly into the cave.

At this moment, in the huge nest, wide passages crisscrossed, like a giant labyrinth.

Shen Bei stepped on the uneven ground and quickly delved deeper along the passages dug by the Fossil Pterosaurs.

Using the light emitted by the luminous mushrooms on the walls, he could occasionally see scattered bones and fur on the ground, making it extremely eerie and terrifying. A nauseating stench also permeated the air.

The entire nest was like a large labyrinth carved out, with various short and long passages leading to individual small stone caves.

Noisy screeches occasionally came from the cave entrance.

To shake off the Vicious Beasts behind him, Shen Bei immediately activated Hidden Breath Technique.

The pursuing Fossil Pterosaurs instantly lost their direction.

Shen Bei quickened his pace, checking several stone caves consecutively in the labyrinthine grotto but finding nothing.

According to the information provided by Zhuang Bifan, only juvenile Fossil Pterosaurs would shed their skin. Shen Bei wasn't discouraged and continued to explore, finally making a discovery in the fifth stone cave he investigated.

This was a stone cave about a few meters square, with crushed white bones covering the ground. Shen Bei used infrared vision to scan it and found a layer of something that looked like skin but wasn't, laid over the white bones.

His heart stirred immediately. He quickly entered the stone cave, grabbed it with one hand, and found that the skin-like object was rough to the touch, with a gritty texture, exactly the Fossil Pterosaurs' shed skin described in the mission.

"This should be it."

Confirming it was correct, Shen Bei nodded with satisfaction, immediately folded the shed skin, and put it into his Storage Ring.

After a careful inspection to ensure nothing was missed, Shen Bei walked out and immediately darted towards the nest exit.

Having marked the path before entering the grotto passage, Shen Bei naturally didn't get lost and reached the cave entrance in a moment.

But when he saw the cave entrance, his expression changed slightly, and he was completely stunned...

Outside the nest, more than twenty Fossil Pterosaurs were no longer searching for Shen Bei everywhere as they had when he first entered.

Instead, they were all gathered outside the nest, their eyes glowing with an eerie crimson, swirling back and forth like a chaotic dance of demons, filled with a brutal and frenzied feeling.

Especially one Fossil Pterosaurs, with prominent horns, far stronger and more ferocious than the others, seemingly a leader, seemed to have seen Shen Bei, constantly thrashing and roaring, making one's heart tremble.

"Damn it... they got smarter. They know I can't just disappear, so they're blocking the cave entrance."

This is no fun now.

Can't get out!
