This shield can even block arrows shot by soone at the Cold Resistance Level, no wonder they find hunting Cold Beasts so easy!”
As Luo Yuan spoke, everyone imdiately recalled that the arrows Xia Hong had shot earlier were indeed blocked by this shield.
Everyone looked at the golden shield, their eyes instantly becoming fervent.
“Let have a look.”
Recalling how his own arrows were blocked by the shield earlier, Xia Hong curiously took the Thunder Kui’s Skull, first squeezing it with force, then slicing it with his Yi Blade, finding that it left no mark, and his eyes showed surprise.
Earlier, he shot three arrows, which had even deford his bow, yet those three arrows were not the limits of his strength, and by his estimation, they had an impact force of about 45,000 pounds.
But now, his static basic strength is a solid 70,000 pounds, and even so, the Thunder Kui’s Skull remained unscathed.
“It’s a pity it can’t be split up.
If it could be made into armor, that would be even better.
Still, it’s not bad as a shield—even if it can’t completely block a Cold Resistance Level, it should co pretty close!”
After making an assessnt, Xia Hong tossed the skull back to Xia Chuan.
Xia Chuan took the skull, thought of sothing, and said to Xia Hong:
“Mu Dong has already checked this before.
Although the Thunder Kui’s skin can’t compare to this skull, its defense is also very strong, roughly able to withstand an impact of 20,000 to 30,000 pounds.
It can be used as armor material; last ti, that Thunder Kui’s skin was over ten ters when peeled off, should be enough to make five sets, and he seems to have been busy with that recently.”
Hearing this, Xia Hong’s expression brightened slightly—this was good news indeed.
The Thunder Kui’s skin is quite tough; while its impact resistance might not be much use against a Cold Resistance Level, it can certainly withstand most attacks from those in the Earth-digging Realm.
Imagine two people who both have Earth-digging Realm cultivation fighting.
If one of them wears armor made from the Thunder Kui’s skin, even if their strength is inferior, they would still have a great chance of winning.
As they chatted and hurried on, they soon reached the edge of Redwood Ridge.
Through a few large trees, they could see the valley camp in the distance.
Suddenly, a person jumped down from a large tree ahead and quickly ran toward them over the snowy ground.
“Leader, you finally returned!”
“Shi Ping, what are you doing here?”
Xia Chuan was the first to recognize that the newcor was Shi Ping.
Noticing Shi Ping’s anxious look, Xia Hong’s expression also showed curiosity.
“Leader, a stranger has arrived at the camp!”
When Xia Hong heard this, he initially froze, then his expression changed dramatically.
He quickly strode toward the camp while furrowing his brow, quietly asking Shi Ping:
“Who is it, have they entered the valley already?”
The Hunting Team mbers also showed varied expressions and quickly followed him.
Shi Ping also hurriedly followed, answering in a deep voice, “I don’t know him.
His clothes and deanor are quite refined, not like soone from around here.
He ca straight down the mountain, didn’t pass through the passage, but he’s already interacted with the Solidified Fire Oil and even entered our cabin without showing any abnormal behavior.”
Hearing Shi Ping’s words, Xia Hong and the other mbers of the Hunting Team imdiately slowed their pace, and their expressions beca much more composed.
As long as it’s not a Deceitful Monster, then everything can be discussed!
Shi Ping clearly understood what Xia Hong was worried about, and after finishing his initial report, he further added, “He said his na is Gao Yu, and he got lost on the mountain and stumbled into our valley.
We were initially going to drive him away directly, but…”
As they neared the entrance of the valley, Xia Hong noticed Shi Ping’s hesitant and peculiar expression and imdiately asked, “But what?”
“That person is really too polite…”
As Shi Ping continued, Xia Hong’s expression also beca increasingly peculiar.
Upon his descent from the mountain, the man wasn’t empty-handed; he brought four Cold Beasts, all of whom were interdiate in size, and according to Shi Ping, he’d never seen these four Interdiate Cold Beasts before.
Moreover, the man offered these four Cold Beasts to the Great Xia upon coming down, only requesting to stay here temporarily.
Even though those four beasts were extrely tempting, Shi Ping and the others didn’t dare to make such a decision on their own and said they couldn’t decide.
The man noticed this and didn’t force Shi Ping to make a decision; he said he would wait for the leader’s return to present his request personally.
If it wasn’t agreed to, he would leave imdiately.
Shi Ping, having no other choice, left others to keep watch at the camp and awaited Xia Hong’s return by the outskirts of Redwood Ridge.
“Let’s discuss it inside first!”
At the entrance of the valley, Xia Hong said nothing after hearing this; he looked up at the mountains behind the valley, pondered for a mont, and led the group directly into the passage.
For soone to co down the mountain alone, bringing with them four interdiate Cold Beasts they haven’t encountered before, you could already infer that this person’s strength is likely far beyond what they imagined.
Such a person, even if they weren’t polite, Shi Ping and the others wouldn’t stand a chance against them.
No, to put it right, they were fortunate he was a polite person.
If he had a strange temper and was prone to harming the innocent, those left at the camp might have faced disaster.
…
“Hey, that’s not right, your boxing technique is indeed good, but just practicing punches is not enough.
At the Logging Realm, it’s a crucial ti to lay the foundation.
The training must cover five body parts: fists, legs, head, torso, and back.
One cannot be neglected.”
“Only by expanding the load capacity of all body parts, can your progress to the Earth-digging Realm be quicker, and even in the future…”
As they entered the passage, even before fully entering the valley, Xia Hong heard a strange voice—the voice was calm and serene, carrying a unique, reassuring quality.
Even without eting the person, Xia Hong couldn’t help but feel a faint sense of goodwill.
