Chapter 416 The Yeti's Real Name is Flying Bear
"Kill you? You seem to be oversimplifying things."
"I wonder if handing you over to Master Xiaoyao will turn the battle outside into a massacre."
After saying that, Chu Chen picked up the barely alive man, flashed out of the stone gate, and then flew swiftly towards the cave entrance.
"Despicable! If you have the guts, kill me! All you Great Xia people know is how to threaten others?"
"Shut the hell up! There are plenty of people more despicable than me. Who do you think I am?"
As Chu Chen emerged from the cave, he muttered curses under his breath.
Soon after, they emerged from the cave. The battle outside was still raging, with casualties on both sides, including those in black and the martial arts practitioners of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Chu Chen kicked away several men in black who tried to surround him and instantly arrived at Zhu Liuxiang's side.
"Master Xiaoyao, this is their leader, from the Kato Shimoe family. You can decide what to do with him."
Zhu Liuxiang pulled the man in black aside, then turned to look at Chu Chen, but there was no trace of Chu Laoliu.
"Hmph, good for nothing but treasure hunting."
After Zhu Liuxiang finished speaking, he grabbed the man in black and rushed to the front of the group.
"Anyone who doesn't want him to die, stop right there..."
Meanwhile, Chu Chen had already used his speed again and headed into the cave.
While the battle raged outside, Chu Chen took advantage of the lull to return to the stone chamber he had visited before.
Several corpses lay there quietly. Chu Chen glanced at them briefly and then began to rummage through the stone chamber.
For him, finding the right way to use that piece of wood was the most crucial thing at the moment.
The stone chamber was small, and apart from rows of shelves, it seemed to be empty.
It seems that the owner of this treasure vault moved everything out of the vault when he left.
But why did they leave this piece of wood and those two parchment scrolls behind?
If Chu Chen couldn't figure it out, he would continue searching; perhaps he would find what he needed.
Immediately afterwards, an entrenching tool appeared in his hand, and he began to hammer at the wall of the stone chamber.
Having looted so many warehouses and treasure troves, Chu Chen had gained some understanding of the methods people used to hide things in this era.
That is, for anything important, they would dig a hole in the wall or the ground and stuff it in.
Sure enough, after some searching, they heard a hollow sound coming from the stone bricks on the wall.
Chu Chen quickly pulled out a dagger, inserted it into the gap in the stone brick, and then gently pried the stone brick off.
There was a small hidden compartment inside, and then I reached in and pulled out a box.
Upon opening it, a thread-bound book representing this era appeared in Chu Chen's hands.
"Damn, judging by its color, it doesn't look like something from ancient times; it looks more like something from this era."
Chu Chen disregarded everything else and, carrying the book, flashed into the space.
Inside the space, Chu Chen sat on the grass and opened a book.
It was obvious that the script used in the record was the script of this era, and Chu Chen could roughly recognize it.
The first sentence of the book is "A Admonition to the Descendants of the Beast Taming Family".
So Chu Chen then turned the pages one by one through this book, which seemed to be a warning to the descendants of the Beast Taming Family.
Half an hour later, Chu Chen closed the book, a smile appearing on his lips.
Then he muttered to himself, "Sure enough, the world is a dangerous place. Even animals are starting to lie."
According to the book, in ancient times, there was a group of mysterious people who kept an animal called the Flying Bear, which was the Yeti that Chu Chen had seen.
This animal is exceptionally gifted, seemingly born for battle, possessing the strength of a fifth-rank ordinary expert from birth.
Once they reach adulthood, each one possesses power far exceeding that of a human grandmaster.
Moreover, they possess the intelligence of ordinary people. Apart from not being able to speak, their strength, speed, and intelligence surpass those of ordinary grandmasters.
Seeing this, Chu Chen chuckled to himself, thinking, "Flying Bear, who the hell came up with such a cute name?"
However, the book also records that this powerful species also has a fatal weakness. The first is that light can reduce their strength by 90% and cause irreversible damage to their bodies, especially their eyes.
This is why Chu Chen was able to subdue those snow monsters with just a few light bulbs.
However, the Flying Bear has a fatal weakness: that piece of wood.
The wood's original name is Tonglingmu, a plant that grows in extremely cold places with abundant sunlight, and uses jade as its nutrient source.
Currently, in the entire world, only the Beast Taming Clan still has this small group left.
This wood is no ordinary wood; it emits a special scent.
This scent is harmless to humans, but it has a natural suppressive effect on flying bears; the special scent makes them feel weak all over.
Furthermore, the book also records methods for communicating with flying bears, allowing one to understand their language—the unique animal language of flying bears—through the sounds they make.
This is also the skill that allows the Beast Taming Clan to tame beasts.
Combined with the suppressive effect of the spirit wood, it can be used to coerce the powerful flying bear into serving humanity.
This is why, according to legend, whoever obtains this wood can summon mysterious power and unify the world.
After quickly reading the information, Chu Chen picked up the book again, which contained the animal language used by the Flying Bear.
Although the writing above was somewhat obscure and difficult, Chu Chen, after a day of study and research, basically mastered the use of this language.
Since the Flying Bear is intelligent, then the Great Yeti that gave him the map and told him to find this piece of wood must have had ulterior motives.
Who would want to see something that can control them?
Therefore, the intention of sending Chu Chen down the mountain to find wood is very clear.
It's simply a matter of using Chu Chen to take this item up the snow mountain and either entrust it to them for safekeeping or to destroy it.
In this way, the threat posed by humans to them can naturally be eliminated.
If one day the divine mountain's binding force on them is lifted, that will be the time for them to dominate the world or break away from this land.
"Haha, Flying Bear, you want to use me to find the Spirit Wood and then never be controlled by humans again. You guessed right, once you get the Spirit Wood, you will do everything in your power to kill me. Little do you know that I am lucky."
"From now on, you will become a mysterious force of Lao Tzu."
Chu Chen chuckled, turned around, grabbed the spirit wood from the ground, and prepared to leave the space to go to the snow mountain again.
Little did Chu Chen know that when he gently grasped the spirit wood, he discovered a pulling force within it.
"Fuck, what's going on?"
So Chu Chen quickly bent down to examine the piece of wood that had been thrown on the grass.
To Chu Chen's surprise, he discovered that the thing had somehow sprouted roots and was growing straight down into the grass.
"Live?"
Chu Chen looked at the scene before him in confusion, then his mouth dropped open in surprise.
