"Little Aunt, take good care of Old Huang, I'm going out for a while." Huang Yu watched as Huang Dashi entered his state, then got up and said to Zhao Wan'er.
"Xiao Yu, at this time, why are you still going out?" Zhao Wan'er was taken aback, then said with some worry, "It's so late, it's not safe to go out."
"Don't worry, Little Aunt, I'm not the same as before." With that, Huang Yu released his aura.
"Xiao Yu, you... you have already broken through the Qi Cultivation realm?" Feeling Huang Yu's aura, Zhao Wan'er was overjoyed, "Thank heaven and earth, may the ancestors bless us, my Xiao Yu has finally made it."
"So, Little Aunt, you don't need to worry about my safety. Besides, I'm not foolish. This time, I'm going out to find some herbs for Old Huang. I'll be back soon."
"Can't Zheng Zhong go instead?"
"No, I'm not at ease. I must go myself because this concerns the life and death of our Huang family. I can't afford to be careless." With that, Huang Yu turned and walked out without looking back.
"Be careful then."
...
...
By now, it was already dark. Huang Yu walked quickly on the road, with the sound of the wind in his ears.
The Black Rock Cave was on the west side of Liulin Town. Beyond the town was a forest, and the Black Rock Cave was on the other side of the forest. This forest was rarely visited, almost deserted.
Huang Yu's speed was very fast, and he occasionally heard the roars of wild beasts.
Of course, there were many wild wolves here.
However, for the current Huang Yu, ordinary wild wolves were no longer a threat. With his Third Layer of Innate cultivation, combined with the Black Flame Armor and the top-quality ordinary fruit knife, and the Flying Knife Technique, any wild wolf that came would surely die.
However, strangely enough, Huang Yu did not encounter any obstacles on his way and smoothly crossed the forest.
After passing through the forest, Huang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
The Black Rock Cave was not far ahead.
This place was quite open, but it was overgrown with thorny bushes, making it difficult for ordinary people to walk.
He swept the path with a long knife in his hand.
Not far away, he found a dark and spacious cave entrance, and there was a stone tablet at a distance from the entrance.
It read, "Black Rock Cave, Dangerous, Enter with Caution."
It seemed that the Black Rock Cave was not as terrifying as he had imagined. He had not encountered any danger on his way. Could the real danger be inside the cave?
From the entrance, the Black Rock Cave showed signs of artificial carving, but whether it was naturally formed or man-made, Huang Yu was not sure.
"Crack."
Huang Yu heard the sound of a branch breaking before he got close.
He immediately became alert and searched around.
Detection Technique.
"Hiss..."
Huang Yu drew a sharp breath. It turned out that a fox leopard was hiding at the edge of the cave entrance.
This fox leopard resembled a fox but was much larger and more ferocious. Its claws were especially sharp, and its combat ability was several times stronger than that of an ordinary leopard. It was also extremely intelligent.
Ordinary hunters were no match for it. Compared to leopards, it was much stronger and more dangerous. This fox leopard, although not a mystic beast, was already between a mystic beast and a wild animal.
Moreover, it had a high possibility of growing into a mystic beast.
The fox leopard in front of him was about four feet long, with sharp teeth and eyes that glowed blue. Its mouth was open, and its sharp fangs were particularly terrifying in the moonlight.
Mutated Fox Leopard:
Level: 26
Health: 1260
Attack: 146
Defense: 74
Agility: 112
After checking the attributes, Huang Yu was even more surprised. The level had reached 26, and the attack power was extremely high. This was a mutated fox leopard. Generally, fox leopards, although powerful, had an attack power of around 110, but this one's attack power was 146, nearly 150.
If it were a mystic beast, it would be different. This fox leopard had not yet reached the mystic beast level, but its attack power was astonishing, much stronger than ordinary fox leopards.
This time, he had a real challenge. The fox leopard had strong attack power and was extremely agile. If it weren't for the Black Flame Armor given to him by Sima Yan, this would have been a tough battle. Even with the armor, dealing with this fox leopard was not easy. Its agility was a big problem.
Huang Yu's mind raced, searching for a way to deal with the fox leopard.
The fox leopard was extremely powerful, with balanced attributes, but it had a weakness: its eyes. Once its eyes were blinded, the fox leopard would no longer be a threat.
He held the fruit knife in his hand, ready to attack at any moment.
"Hisss..."
The fox leopard bared its teeth, its fur bristled, and it swept away the thorny bushes in front of it with its front paws, facing Huang Yu.
Seeing the fruit knife in Huang Yu's hand, the fox leopard assessed its opponent. This guy was not easy to deal with, but the fox leopard did not want to give up easily. It seemed to be looking for a weakness in Huang Yu.
The fox leopard crouched, its eyes narrowed, and its body formed a bow.
This was the prelude to an attack.
Huang Yu did not dare to be careless. The fox leopard was extremely agile. Although it might not be able to break through his defense, if it attacked his head, the danger would be great.
"Rustle..."
The sound of the wind rustling through the leaves continued in his ears.
He did not have much time to waste on this beast. What was wrong with him? Facing just a beast, he was hesitating. The path of cultivation required courage and determination. Being hesitant would not lead to any achievements.
Huang Yu suddenly had a realization. His entire aura changed, and his true qi became more refined. His mental strength increased by almost a third.
Attack.
Huang Yu moved, and when he moved, he was like a rabbit out of the burrow.
Fruit knife.
Flying Knife Technique.
A white light was particularly noticeable in the night.
"Whoosh."
"Ugh..."
The flying knife pierced the fox leopard's right eye, and a piercing scream echoed.
"-168!"
This hit was effective, but killing the fox leopard was not that easy. Although it had lost one eye, this was a mutated fox leopard with strong attack power and a large amount of health, over a thousand.
This hit, although it hit a vital point, did not reduce the fox leopard's health by much.
It was only about 168, a little more than a tenth of the fox leopard's health.
Huang Yu thought the fox leopard would be enraged and attack him, but to his surprise, after a mournful cry, the fox leopard darted into the forest and disappeared from sight.
It had fled. Yes, the fox leopard had fled.
This made Huang Yu breathe a sigh of relief. The intense concentration of mental strength had been a great pressure on him. Although he could likely kill the fox leopard if he continued, the cost would be too high. He only had one substandard healing pill and a set of healing medicines from before.
He took a deep breath and continued forward.
The Black Rock Cave lived up to its name.
The cave entrance and the inner walls were made of black rock, which was extremely hard, much harder than marble. Huang Yu tried to scratch it with his fruit knife, but only managed to leave a shallow mark. His fruit knife was a top-quality ordinary weapon, capable of cutting through iron like butter, but on the black rock, it only left a shallow mark, showing how hard the black rock was.
"Stupid owner,收敛气息, hurry up and move forward."
Suddenly, Lulu's voice rang in his ear again.
Huang Yu was startled.
He patted his chest, slightly dissatisfied.
"Lulu, you scared me to death with your sudden appearance."
"Owner, quickly leave here,收敛气息, don't make a sound, use the Stealth Technique, and hurry up and go." Lulu seemed not to hear his words and urged him urgently.
Seeing Lulu so tense, even if Huang Yu were foolish, he would know that something was wrong. Thinking of the terror of the Black Rock Cave, he broke out in a cold sweat. Without a word, he收敛气息, hurriedly used the Stealth Technique, and rushed forward.
The Stealth Technique was a skill he obtained from killing an assassin. It lasted for three minutes and had a cooldown of ten minutes. This was the first time he used it, and he seemed to disappear, blending into the surroundings.
After stealthily moving about ten meters, Huang Yu felt a powerful aura approaching from outside.
Huang Yu held his breath, secretly relieved. If Lulu hadn't reminded him, he would have been in trouble. This aura was extremely powerful and violent. It was definitely a mystic beast. If he were caught by this mystic beast, he would be severely injured, if not killed.
After walking for a while and feeling that the violent and terrifying aura had disappeared, Huang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lulu, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have been in trouble."
"This is what Lulu should do. This is the Black Rock Cave, extremely dangerous. You must be extremely careful and not be complacent," Lulu said, initially sounding somewhat proud, but then very worried.
"I know, but with Lulu's help, everything will be fine." Huang Yu praised her.
"Of course, with Lulu here, these small matters are no problem." Hearing Huang Yu's words, Lulu raised her little head, looking very capable, which was extremely cute.
"Right, I know. Our Lulu is the best, and I will definitely listen to you." Huang Yu smiled inwardly. If he asked Lulu for help directly, she might not agree so easily. But by praising her and saying it before she could react, she had no choice but to agree. Huang Yu knew that Lulu was not that simple.
