Chapter 126 Teasing the Stone-Breaking Bear
Wu Heyi was relying on his negligible control over the release of soul power as a Soul King.
He concentrated his mind and carefully mobilized the soul power within his body, slowly extending it to the ground.
A moment later, the small stones scattered on the ground seemed to be drawn by some mysterious force, trembling slightly before rising into the air and landing steadily in his outstretched palm.
After obtaining the stone, Wu Heyi stood on a high place, looking down at the rock-breaking bear below that was trying to climb the tree.
A sly smile crept across his lips as he began to toss pebbles at the Stone Bear one after another.
At first, the pebbles fell like raindrops, but they did not have much of an impact on the tough-skinned Stone Bear.
It just felt as if some small things were falling from above, hitting its body and making it feel itchy, like leaves blown down by a breeze.
Therefore, the Rock-Breaking Bear paid little attention to these slight sensations and continued to climb the tree persistently.
However, as time went on, Wu Heyi threw stones faster and in greater quantities.
Although the impact of each pebble is not great on its own, the cumulative effect still caused considerable trouble for the Stone Bear.
Gradually, the Rock Bear realized that no matter how hard it tried, it could not climb the tree successfully.
The prolonged fruitless attempts made his already irritable temper even more difficult to control, filling his heart with endless frustration and anger.
Just then, the Stone Bear suddenly heard a "whoosh" sound, followed by a sharp pain in its right eye.
It instinctively raised its head, wanting to see what had attacked it.
What a sight! High up in the tree, there stood a little monkey dressed in strange clothes!
Just as it looked up, another pebble struck its left eye with perfect accuracy.
Suddenly, an unnamed rage surged within the rock-breaking bear. Its entire body trembled slightly with fury, and it opened its blood-red maw, roaring loudly at Wu Heyi in the tree.
The roar was deafening, as if it were about to tear everything around it apart.
When Wu Heyi saw that the stupid bear had finally been provoked, he revealed a smug smile.
His hands moved faster and faster as he grabbed stones and threw them at the rubble bear below.
Just as the Stone-Breaking Bear opened its mouth to roar, several fist-sized pebbles flew like meteors and hurtled towards its throat.
The pebbles landed squarely in the throat of the Stone Bear, catching it completely off guard.
In an instant, the Stone Bear was choked and coughed violently, tears and snot streaming down its face.
Despite its name, Rock-Smashing Bear, and its immense strength capable of easily shattering rocks, it clearly has no interest in swallowing rock fragments.
After finally spitting out all the pebbles in its mouth, the Stone Bear was furious. With its bloodshot eyes, it charged straight toward the big tree where Wu Heyi was.
Immediately afterwards, it slammed its massive, hard body against the tree trunk.
One, two, three... Each impact was accompanied by a dull thud, and the whole tree began to shake violently, with branches and leaves scattering all over the ground.
However, Wu Heyi, who was in the tree, was not flustered at all.
At this moment, he already possessed the formidable strength of a Soul King, his feet as firmly rooted as if they were planted in a tree.
No matter how the tree swayed, he stood steadily on the branch, a slight contemptuous smile on his face, as if mocking the utterly foolish rock-breaking bear beneath him.
However, at this moment, the rock bear under the big tree was in a terrible mood.
It should be noted that although the trees in this forest are only about 10,000 years old, their sturdiness is in no way inferior to some soul beasts with 100,000 years of cultivation.
The rock-crushing bear recklessly rammed the tree trunk several times, putting all its strength into each strike, but what was the result?
It felt dizzy and lightheaded, as if countless bees were buzzing around in its head, and even the blood and qi in its body began to churn uncontrollably, leaving it feeling uncomfortable all over.
Having barely recovered its senses, it couldn't wait to roar at Wu Heyi in the tree again.
However, this time, the roar had only reached the middle when it seemed to suddenly realize something, and it abruptly shut its mouth and stopped making a sound.
Then, it noticed that Wu Heyi wasn't throwing stones at it like before, and its anger flared up again, causing it to roar wildly at the top of its lungs once more.
The roar was deafening, as if it were a string of curses:
"You wretched, stinky monkey, if you've got the guts, get down here!"
Meanwhile, Wu Heyi, who was perched on a tree branch, suddenly became incredibly morbidly humorous for some unknown reason.
Originally, he was just looking for a suitable soul beast to practice his skills, but who would have thought that he would start toying with this rock-breaking bear and get more and more into it, showing no sign of stopping.
However, after the two remained locked in this stalemate for a while, the huge rock-breaking bear kept its eyes on Wu Heyi in the tree, but Wu Heyi stayed steadily on the branch and showed no sign of coming down.
The Stone Bear blinked its large, bell-shaped eyes, seemingly deep in thought.
After a while, it probably felt that the standoff was too boring, so it turned around slowly and turned its attention back to the big tree that was full of sweet honey.
He was thinking about how to climb the tree and get his hands on those tempting honeys.
Seeing the somewhat silly-looking rock-breaking bear turn and leave, Wu Heyi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But he didn't intend to let it go; instead, he quickly gathered another handful of pebbles and held them in his hand.
Just as the Rock-Breaking Bear was becoming increasingly anxious due to its repeated failures to climb the tree, Wu Heyi seized the opportunity, raised his hand again, and hurled the stones in his hand at the Rock-Breaking Bear like raindrops.
In an instant, the fury in the heart of the Stone Bear, which had just calmed down, was ignited again. It turned its head sharply, glared fiercely at Wu Heyi, and let out a low roar.
Thus, a new stalemate began.
This process repeated itself more than ten times.
The rock-crushing bear, which had initially been in a rather pleasant mood, had now completely lost its patience. Its emotions were becoming increasingly volatile, and its eyes were flashing with anger.
When this stalemate continued for the eighteenth time, the Rock-Breaking Bear finally reached its breaking point!
It opened its blood-red maw, and a powerful soul force rapidly condensed within its mouth.
In the blink of an eye, a burst of extremely compressed soul power shot towards Wu He like a bolt of lightning.
Faced with this sudden turn of events, Wu Heyi was truly startled and almost messed things up.
Fortunately, his physical strength was also considerable, and his physical attributes could even be described as extremely formidable.
At the critical moment, he nimbly turned his head slightly to the side, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.
Although he managed to escape unscathed, Wu Heyi was still shaken.
At the same time, he keenly noticed that the somewhat oppressive space behind him seemed to have suddenly become much brighter.
He turned around abruptly, his eyes wide open, his face filled with disbelief.
The once lush and verdant canopy now looked as if it had been hit by a cannonball, with a shocking hole in it!
The hole was about ten meters in diameter, and the surrounding branches and leaves were blown to pieces, leaving a mess.
Wu He gasped first, then patted his chest with lingering fear, muttering to himself:
"Oh my god, that scared me to death! That was so close!"
Then, he raised his head, glared at the stone-crushing bear, and shouted:
"You big guy, you have no sportsmanship at all! How can you just start a fight like that?"
And to suddenly unleash such a powerful attack from its mouth—wasn't that clearly a sneak attack?
