Chapter 14: Testing...

The Grey Bear Roared as it charge at Lu tong , while the Latter calmly prepared his steel Threads.

The hearts within him continued to beat in a serene manner as he spread out him arms. The Lion heart passive kicked in, boosting his stats by 5%.

as the Bear got closer, The two glared hatefully at each other as the world seemed to slow down.

then ———.

"ROOOOOOAAAR!!!!!"

The Bear crashed Into Lu tong violently, making it's eyes show disbelief, Lu tong only move back by half a step, just with his stats alone.

He wished to test how stats worked for Npc's and with the overall power boost from his Mask and Lion heart passive, He could say he was not far from being an Elite Npc himself.

The Bear swiped down once more with it's claws But Lu tong again didn't try to avoid it, He instead made The strings wrap around his fore arms as he set a form of Guard against the Blow.

Dum!!!

'Not much of an impact huh' Lu tong thought silently as the Bear successfully retreat in caution.

The Domain skill is rather interesting, it slows down my target but increases my strings attack speed by 0.75% every successful blow till the maximum of 8 stacks.

This had proven useful in the previous clash.

Immediately, The Bear continued its attack on Lu tong, clearly enraged that it couldn't hurt him Earlier.

Lu tong continued to dodge easily with the Domain skill still active when The Bear suddenly stopped.

[—–What!?]The Bears expression seemed to say.

Surprised that his movement has been stopped mid stride, it struggled to move it's limb but couldn't . Only the sound of something rubbing against each other could be heard.

krr! crrr! krrr!

String were restricting its movement, like a spider web, The Bear followed the direction of the Threads with its eyes, all the way to Lu tong's finger tips.

Lu tong click his tongue in amusement.

"who knew bears could be so expressive".

The Bear's magic power suddenly gathered as it reflectively used its immune ability out of fear.

"I see that the reactions of creatures are still life-like as always. clearly this bear doesn't have much battle experience, so it made a rookie mistake."

Lu tong's expression distorted behind the mask as he smiled in a sinister manner.

[I can clearly see everything! within this domain! it's like adding eyes to the back of my head but there's still a strain on my focus.]

Lu tong once again started attacking the Bear as it retreated. the Bear was clearly upset that it's immunity skill didn't remove the restrain of the strings, so it tried to seize the wires with it mouth , but it never seemed to touch.

[It's useless!! everything you try to do is visible to me.]

The Bear retreated, and Lu tong chased after him.

the Bear's breath has become rough , it stared at Lu tong viciously.

'I can't say I'm disappointed...got to test most of my skills but I don't have much time... its almost night fall'

the Bear's body was covered with innumerable small wounds.

Certainly, it was able to see all of the strings.

However, being able to see doesn't mean it can dodge it all.

Lu tong's wires were like a spider web, once you are caught you won't be able to escape.

It was a formation that lead his prey around and seal its movement, even Lu tong was a bit surprised by its efficiency. He was initially going with the flow but as time went on, he continued to make adjustments.

Lu tong composedly walk toward the now trapped Bear. His strings already sealed its escape route and movement before it knew it.

At the next moment, Blood burst from Bears's flesh as Lu tong clenched his fist. The steel wire wrapped around the Bear and bit into it's flesh.

the Bear howled in pain but it still stared at him.

Lu tong's finger moved and the steel wires cut through the air, releasing the Bear from his hold.

At that moment the Bear's opened it's eyes wide in surprise, but instead of running away it charged straight at Him. It felt like it was looked down upon and got enraged, its earlier tiredness was nowhere to be seen.

ROOOOAAAAR!!!!....

Lu tong side stepped out of the way and his elbow already made its way to the Bear's Jaw the moment it turned around.

[Graaaaa!!.]

[Like I said...inexperienced]

He mercilessly continue his assault on the staggered Bear.

His fist penetrates the Bear's stomach when he added Qi to his Punch, what follow was a drop down hammer kick on it's head. The stomach of this Creature was its stomach, same rule applied even when warrior players used it as their spirit animal.

Lu tong's continuous strikes didn't stop there.

Using his fist, elbow and knee to attack, each time it received those attack Damage numbers kept appearing on his User interface, allowing him to review what does what and its effects.

the Bear tries to retreat desperately and escape the storm like attacks but its most trusted skill was still on cool down.

Due to the bears resilience and thick skin, the unarmed combat effect did little damage, it's body recovers quite quickly once the damage has been done to his body. It was only the 0.2 sec stun effects that stopped it from breaking away, so it was waiting for the storm to stop and retreat ——.

Unfortunately Lu tong just kept on trying different combos.

Each step he took sealed It's escape, the blow he unleashed rendered where ever it hits powerless.

everything was already calculated, as he kept recalling each of his master's teachings and his body moved.

Doing so,He continued his one-sided assault.

That scene is already like an endless torture but he soon put his index and middle finger together, before proceeding with practicing his chi blocking skills.

blood splattered from the Bear's mouth and made a stain on floor while it groaned.

little by little the strength and speed of Lu tong's attacks became more consistent.

While he was having Fun, a notification soon popped up in his view <+5303 exp>

Thud!!

Surprised, he could only stare blankly as the Bears body dropped on the floor with a loud thud.

[Eh...I overdid it]Lu tong muttered as he stared at the loot at his feet before picking one item that caught his attention.

-Gray Scaled Bear Battle spirit(Common)

Holding a fist sized Orb in his hand, He smirked before tossing it into his inventory. He then looked at the time below his mini map.

{16:34 pm}

'I need to head back before I start losing my senses.' He thought as he turned back towards the cave he came from.
