C19 Ice Bear Besieged

Another half a month passed by in a flash. On this day, Liu Qi and his friends had agreed to hunt, and it was also the day for him to practice actual combat.

It was already the beginning of autumn. The occasional snowfall had already begun in the cold and extreme north. Today was a day with a thin layer of snow drifting about.

Of course, Xiao Xue did not have any effect on Liu Qi, Xia Qi and the Wu Family brothers, who were used to seeing snow flying in the air in winter. The group of four continued to walk towards the extreme north forest, talking and laughing.

The scenery along the way was very different from the last time Liu Qi came. There was a thin layer of ice everywhere in the grass and trees. Because he had trained in Frozen Heaven Essence Energy, Liu Qi had a soft spot for snowy weather. He could feel the coldness from the falling snow, which was full of intimacy. It was as if his own internal energy had become more active.

As they entered the inner area of the forest, they began to move horizontally as usual. Because of the coordination of several times, the four of them had a bit of tacit understanding with each other. Of course, it would be with Liu Qi's strength that they would soar.

The four of them had also changed their formation. The two level 2 acolyte brothers of Wu Family were still leading the way, but they would occasionally raise their heads to pay attention to the movement above. This was a lesson left behind by encountering the Swift Wind Leopard. Xia Qi was a level 3 Apprentice, and her power was close to that of a level 1 Martial Disciple. She was in charge of guarding both sides. On the surface, Liu Qi was a Level 3 Apprentice. With two pinnacle martial arts that could rival a Level 12 Martial Disciple, he was responsible for defending the rear against any danger.

Wu Li, who was originally the leader, stopped insisting on being the boss in front of Liu Qi's strength. Moreover, his personality was not suitable for him to be a leader. The leader was not only calm and taciturn, he also needed to be astute and decisive in the circumstances. The leader of the small group finally switched to Liu Qi.

This point was meaningless even for Xia Qi, who was the most powerful on the surface. Furthermore, the children of the Northern Lands matured early. With the rapid rise of Liu Qi and his shadow in Xia Qi's heart, she would naturally not oppose it.

The Wu Family Brothers in front suddenly stopped opening up a path, and leaned their bodies to hide behind the long grass. Wu Li even pressed a hand behind his back, indicating the two people behind to also hide.

Xia Qi and Liu Qi, who were behind them, understood that there was something going on. In a situation where they did not know what was going on, the two of them quickly bent down and carefully approached the Wu Family Brothers.

Thirty meters in front, for Martial Cultivator, with the support of Inner Qi, his vision was much better than a normal person's. Even though there was snow falling from the sky, the four of them could still clearly distinguish what was happening in front of them at a distance of thirty meters.

He saw a three-meter-tall Ice Bear, with snow-white fur. It was roaring angrily, and waved its paws in front of it, as if it was hitting something. Due to the long grass, it could not see the situation on the ground.

As the commander, Liu Qi quickly determined the situation in front of him because he needed to give the next instructions.

Ice Bear, a level 3 Apprentice ferocious beast in the Extreme North Mountain Range, should be living in the inner circle, rarely coming out from the outer circle. Listening to its roar, it must have met with danger, its voice was also tinged with sorrow, perhaps it was severely injured. The strength of the four of us shouldn't be afraid of it. It's just that we don't know what kind of ferocious beast it is facing.

Liu Qi pondered for a while and then made a decision. He would continue to move forward with concealment and wait until he met the opponent of Ice Bear at fifteen meters before making his next judgement.

The other three did not have any objections, they knew the level of the Ice Bear, even if they had to fight head on with them, they would definitely win, it was just that they would need to spend some effort. This was because ferocious beasts had an innate physical advantage over humans, and their strength was extremely great. At the same level, it was extremely difficult for humans to suppress ferocious beasts. Fortunately, Liu Qi had more people now.

After quietly covering fifteen meters, the four people once again squatted on the ground. This time, they were finally able to clearly see the Ice Bear's opponent.

It was a speciality of the extreme northern forest — Wind Hyena s. They were small in size, only around seventy centimeters long each, and their strength was also weak, comparable to an apprentice level 1 Martial Cultivator, but they were extremely cunning and ferocious. They liked to group up against their enemies, and with their speed and sharp teeth and sharp claws, most hunters would not dare to provoke them.

At this time, at least ten Wind Hyena were surrounding the Ice Bear, and the Ice Bear's left eye had turned into a black hole that was emitting blood. The Ice Bear's fresh blood flowed down the spotlessly white fur on its chest and formed a large blood stain on the ground, it was obvious that it had become blind from the attack, and this kind of wound could not have been caused by the Wind Hyena, so even if they jumped, they could not see the Ice Bear's eyes.

The goal was to not let the Ice Bear escape. They were waiting for the Ice Bear to lose too much blood from its wound, and then they could take advantage of it.

The Ice Bear seemed to be affected by the wound, its thoughts were in a mess, and it did not realize the sinister intentions of the Wind Hyena, so it continued to wave its palms hard, wanting to kill these hateful mad dogs. However, it did not realize that the more it exercised, the greater the energy consumption would be, the faster the blood circulation would be, and the faster the blood flow would be. Now, the Ice Bear's footsteps were starting to become unstable, so it could only persevere for a few more minutes.

Seeing this, Liu Qi also hesitated a little. The Ice Bear was no longer a threat, but the Wind Hyena was a famous mad dog. With a group of dogs together, no matter how strong they were, they wouldn't be able to withstand a lot of other people's dogs.

Liu Qi did not dare to make his own decision, after all, his little buddy's life was the priority, and his strong fighting spirit made him want to give it a try, since after all, he had not been able to use it in actual combat ever since the Soaring Mist was first formed. Furthermore, there were a lot of Wind Hyena, and their strengths were their speed, but they were weak.

In the end, his consciousness overcame his hesitation. Liu Qi said to his little buddy in front of him:

"Xiao Qi, Wu Li, Wu De, Ice Bear's value is very high, much more expensive than the Swift Wind Leopard we killed last time. Its fur and claws are priceless, now that it's injured, we cannot miss this chance." Liu Qi paused for a moment to observe the reaction of his companions. Although the reason he came up with was very tempting, he wouldn't force them if they were afraid of getting hurt. The experiential learning had to be based on the premise of ensuring the safety of his partners. As for himself, he had long been excluded, he was extremely confident in his own martial arts, even if he could not beat him, relying on the Soaring Mist was not a problem for him to escape.
