Dual Cultivator with a cultivation system

Chapter 158 Ch-158: First Blood

Inside the Secret Realm

As soon as Wang Ming entered the Secret Realm, he felt a wave of dizziness in his head. When he steadied himself, he found that he was in an entirely unfamiliar place—a forest terrain.

"Hmm, I shouldn't be lax. Judging from the mission of the system, there should be powerful beasts lurking around here," Wang Ming mumbled. He brought out his Flowing Flower Sword, which he hadn't used in some time since there was no occasion for it. Just to be safe, he had it ready.

Wang Ming began to explore the area, occasionally dealing with a few weak beasts of the Foundation Realm. Within the past hour, he had already completed half of the required kills of Foundation Realm beasts.

Wang Ming heard a loud roar as he was checking his status for no apparent reason

"Roar!" A loud roar shattered the previous silence, catching Wang Ming's attention. He looked up to see three creatures with the head of a tiger and the body of a griffon chasing a man through the air.

Wang Ming was a bit surprised to encounter such rare creatures here. Their bodies were treasures for cultivators, useful for crafting artifacts or pills. Moreover, these creatures were at the 5th stage of the Golden Core Realm, an even rarer sight that shocked Wang Ming.

Among those being chased, Wang Ming recognized a familiar figure. It was the skinny man he had encountered outside, the one who had made the neck-slashing gesture when they first met at the entrance. Wang Ming had no intention of helping, and based on his judgment, that man must have tried to hunt the creatures and provoked them.

The skinny man spotted Wang Ming and dashed towards him, knowing Wang Ming was also at the Golden Core Realm. For him, Wang Ming's presence was nothing short of a miracle and possibly his last chance of survival, the only ticket to live.

"Help me! I have a treasure as compensation!" the man shouted, desperately trying to grab Wang Ming's attention.

"All my partners have been killed by these group of beasts. I'll give you the core of the beast I hunted with difficulty," the man presented a silvery core the size of a fist toward Wang Ming. In reality, he had no intention of giving it; he just wanted to use the borrowed knife to kill an enemy, and while Wang Ming was distracted, he aimed to escape with the treasure.

Wang Ming knew what the man was planning, smirked, and ignored him.

"Damn!" the man cursed when he realized Wang Ming wasn't paying attention. He had assumed Wang Ming, being a Golden Core realm expert, would kill the creatures with some difficulty. He planned to sneak up on Wang Ming after the fight, harvest the beast Wang Ming killed, and make a run for the exit. Now, he was afraid Wang Ming might run for the exit without him.

The next scene left him wide-eyed, almost causing him to spurt out a mouthful of blood. To his disbelief, he saw Wang Ming suddenly sit down on the grassy field, pull out a spirit fruit from his storage ring, and casually started eating it. He observed the man being chased by the beasts as though he was watching some kind of survival drama.

"He's not afraid of fighting, damn. Then he should save me from these beasts instead of eating a damn, fruit He must be provoking me," the man gritted his teeth in anger.

"Damn, I have no choice. Either he will kill me or the beasts. If I am dying, I'll take this bastard with me or at least injure him," the man said, clenching his fist.

"AHH!" He was dozens of feet from Wang Ming when he felt a claw pierce his back, making him scream in pain. He fell on the ground a couple of distances away from the chasing beasts. He attacked them, but it had no effect. His face fell in despair as he saw them closing in on him. Wang Ming was watching the scene with an amused look on his face.

"Brother, take this core. I will hold them off as long as I can," the man said, tossing the core towards Wang Ming.

"Oh, my, thank you," Wang Ming said, feigning indifference to the situation. The man smirked, thinking Wang Ming was foolish. The beasts then turned their heads towards Wang Ming, letting out a furious roar, thinking he was with the skinny man.

"Who am I to stop you if you wish to discard your life?" asked Wang Ming as he raised his sword. The leader of the tiger leaped up, its claws brightening up. The wind whistled, and the air pierced with a sharp glint of the claw. Wang Ming used his sword to block the strike effortlessly while yawning.

The tiger felt a deep sense of crisis when it saw how effortlessly Wang Ming blocked its attack. Soon, fear turned into anger, and all three of them struck together. Wang Ming casually slashed, and they retreated a couple of steps back.

"Heavenly Sword Art - Second Form - World Slicing Strike," Wang Ming muttered under his breath. A massive golden arc flew from his sword, rushing towards one of the beasts.

Splatter

Upon contact with the beast, the destructive energy rampaged throughout its body, shattering all organs and smashing the steel-like body in an instant, turning it into a blood mist. It didn't stop there but kept moving after passing through its body.

BOOM

The golden arc continued towards a huge mountain, causing a massive explosion that reduced the entire mountain to rubble. The other two tigers and the injured skinny man felt their eardrums on the verge of splitting apart, the vibrations roiling in the air from the explosion.

When they lifted their heads, having shielded themselves from the aftermath, their faces turned pale with fright, shivering in fear.

"Damn, impossible! What kind of technique was that?" the man muttered with a fearful tone in his voice. He had seen many sword techniques but never witnessed such a powerful one in his entire life. He had not expected Wang Ming to be this strong at all. The remaining beasts and the injured man dared not move or make any sound, scared witless by the brief display of power.

"Now, now, what should I do with you guys?" Wang Ming murmured, looking at the two beasts and the skinny man with a smile. His smile caused their bodies to tremble in fright. The beasts glared hatefully at the skinny man. If not for this human causing a misunderstanding, they would not have attacked Wang Ming in the first place. The skinny man felt his throat run dry when he saw their gaze.

"Friend, I apologize for my misconduct. Please be merciful and spare my pitiful life," the skinny man started kowtowing towards Wang Ming, causing a look of disdain to appear on his face. Wang Ming thought he might make a last stand but did not expect this guy to be so spineless, which made him lose interest. He should have already expected this as this was a common occurrence in this world

"Tsk, I've lost interest in you," Wang Ming said as he disappeared from their field of vision, having noticed something up ahead. The skinny man and the beasts sighed a breath of relief when they saw Wang Ming leave.

"Sigh, I am never coming here again or any secret realm in my life. I am leaving," the man said, patting his chest in relief.

Grrr

"Oh, no," the skinny man, who was relieved for a second, turned white again when he realized the lurking danger other than Wang Ming near him. The two lion-faced beasts looked at him with drool leaking from their mouths.

"NOOOOOOOOO!" the man shouted when he saw the two beasts open their mouths and clamp onto his neck. He screamed in pain, and after a few seconds, his body turned lifeless and fell to the ground.
