The two followed that path and searched for half a day.
They arrived at a huge cave, where the trees around it were all snapped in half.
The eerie aura rushed towards us, and we could hear the roars of monsters coming from the cave from time to time, making our eardrums ache.
"A bear?" From the roar, Shen Sanruo deduced that the monster must be a bear.
"Is it because it was affected by that eerie aura that it caused the surrounding area to become like this?" Fang Yu pondered, looking at the large number of fallen trees.
Given the strength of this bear-like beast, it should have developed some intelligence, and under normal circumstances, it would never have made such a commotion in its own cave.
This is similar to the symptoms Fang Yu described about demonic beasts losing their minds, and the symptoms are quite obvious.
"Sister Sang Ruo, what should we do now? Should we wait for that bear beast to come out before we make a move?" Fang Yu asked.
Shen Sanruo stared at the cave, which was pitch black inside, and said, "Just make your move."
Fang Yu looked at her, his expression seemingly somewhat surprised, after all, the strongest impression she gave him from the moment she appeared was one of caution.
“If it still had its senses, we would need to carefully consider our actions before taking them, but it is currently affected by the strange aura, so we don’t need to consider these things.”
A monster with a brain is difficult to deal with, but a monster without a brain is just a rock with powerful energy.
"I get it! I'll just have to fight with this worthless life!" Fang Yu said excitedly.
Even so, the two still scouted the surroundings first, confirming that there was only one large demon beast, the bear beast, nearby. Only after ensuring that nothing went wrong did they begin to walk into the cave.
The closer they got to the cave, the bigger the bear-like beast's movements became, even shaking the ground.
Fang Yu felt uneasy, but after seeing the calm and composure in Shen Sangruo's eyes, she clenched her fist and became more determined.
Upon entering the cave, Shen Sanruo lit a small flame in her hand for illumination.
The cave was filled with a strong, eerie atmosphere. Unsure whether it would have any effect on people, Shen Sanruo took out two Qingxin Pills from her Qiankun bag.
He took one pill himself and handed the other to Fang Yu, saying, "The choice is yours whether to take it or not."
It's normal for two people to be wary of each other after just meeting.
Fang Yu took the Heart-Clearing Pill and immediately recognized that its quality far surpassed that of other Heart-Clearing Pills. He pretended to decline, saying, "Oh dear, I'm so sorry."
While saying this, she directly put the Qingxin Pill into her mouth, saying, "Thank you, Sister Sangruo."
It was as if they were afraid that Shen Sangri might change her mind.
He didn't think much about whether Shen Sangruo would poison him; his focus was on the fact that Shen Sangruo was willing to give him such a high-quality pill.
"This Mind-Clearing Pill must have cost Sister Sangruo a lot of spirit stones, right?"
“It was a gift from my fourth senior sister,” Shen Sangruo replied, her gaze softening slightly as she mentioned Su Xiyu.
"Oh, oh." Fang Yu nodded, then exclaimed, "Sister Sang Ruo's fourth senior sister is really amazing."
The alchemist who can refine such a pill must be no ordinary person.
His curiosity grew even stronger; what kind of sect was Ninghua Sect?
“I think so too.” Shen Sangruo wholeheartedly agreed.
The two were still in the mood for casual conversation, but after venturing a little further into the cave, they focused all their attention on the berserk bear-like beast inside.
The constantly trembling stone walls indicated that they were not far from the bear-like beast.
After confirming the distance, Shen Sanruo reached out to stop Fang Yu, signaling him to step back.
She then summoned a feather fan, the firelight illuminating her face, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes.
With three consecutive swings of the fan, fiery clouds gathered above the cave, and tongues of fire extended inwards along the cave walls, instantly illuminating the pitch-black cave.
Anyone who has witnessed Shen Sangruo's attack methods will be amazed by them, and Fang Yu is no exception.
He found her "grilled bear meat" move brilliant, and then felt fortunate that he had listened to advice and retreated quickly.
As Shen Sangruo stood amidst the firelight, her dark hair danced in the wind generated by her feather fan.
She stared intently into the depths of the cave, gripping her feather fan tightly, always on high alert and ready for battle.
Fang Yu, who was standing to the side, did the same.
Moments after the flames spread out, the bear-like beast deep within the cave suddenly became agitated, its roars seeming to shatter the eardrums of the two men.
The cave walls trembled violently as the bear-like beast rammed into the ground, and rocks kept falling from the top.
After several collisions, the bear-like beast seemed to find the right direction and charged wildly along the cave.
It was a huge black bear; if it weren't for the firelight, it would have blended into the darkness of the cave.
That's why Shen Sangruo and Fang Yu were able to see that the black bear's eyes had no pupils, but rather a hazy gray.
The two clearly sensed the strangeness of the black bear compared to normal demonic beasts; it indeed did not possess the intelligence of normal demonic beasts.
As the distance closed, the two were able to determine the black bear's level and strength, which was equivalent to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stages.
Fang Yu's expression froze. Although he had expected it, he was more inclined to believe that the black bear only had the strength of the late Golden Core stage.
Under normal circumstances, even a late-stage Golden Core cultivator and a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator combined would be far from being a match for the black bear.
However, Chen Sangruo is clearly a different case.
Since she dared to come, she must have been absolutely confident.
She raised her hand and swung out two more fans. The black bear, which had been charging forward, was forced to retreat by the force of the wind from the feather fans.
Fang Yu exclaimed in surprise, wanting to do something, but found that the black bear was trapped in the sea of fire and there was nothing he could do to help.
All around were falling flames. Even the black bear's thick skin couldn't withstand such high temperatures. Its gray eyes suddenly turned crimson, and its movements became even more frantic as it tried to break free.
It was greeted by Chen Sangruo's two doors as always.
This time, however, the distance the black bear retreated was noticeably shorter.
Her gaze swept across the top of the cave, her eyes gleaming.
In his other hand, he silently condensed a ball of fiery red spiritual energy, which he then hurled at the top of the cave.
At the same time, he shouted at Fang Yu, "Back off!"
Cracks appeared on the cave ceiling, indicating that it was about to collapse.
The two immediately evacuated the cave, and once outside, the cave collapsed.
After a loud bang, the noise gradually subsided.
"There's no movement. Is the black bear dead?" Fang Yu looked at the cave entrance, which was filled with rubble.
Shen Sanruo also stared at that spot. Even if the black bear wasn't dead, the force of the cave collapse was enough to cause it considerable damage.
However, after Fang Yu finished speaking, a huge black mass appeared out of thin air in front of the two of them, less than a hundred meters away.
It was that black bear, and it was only injured by the flames, with no signs of being crushed by rocks.
It stared intently at the two with a pair of bloodshot eyes that had no pupils, already in a berserk state.
Shen Sanruo reacted instantly.
"It can teleport!"
