Killing God - Chapter 212
Chapter 212 Mountain Bear
The night was peaceful, and nothing unexpected happened. Shen Shi and the Little Hei pig slept quietly on the tree for a night. He woke up the next morning when the dew continued to drip from the leaves of the forest.
A new day has begun.
Shen Shi sat on the branch of the tree trunk for a moment, then took a deep breath. He turned to look at the Little Hei pig and found that the little fellow seemed to have woken up earlier than he did. His two bright eyes rolled as he looked at the surroundings surrounded by green leaves. He did not know what he was thinking.
Shen Shi smiled and said, “Xiao Hei, let’s go. Let’s go to Gaoling Mountain to try our luck.”
The little black pig grinned, as if it had smiled. At the same time, it let out a humph.
Shen Shi turned around. Just as he was about to jump off the tree trunk, he suddenly heard a shrill scream from the other side of the forest. It broke the silence of the forest. Shen Shi’s body trembled and he immediately stopped and pressed down on Little Hei who had just remembered.
A few void-piercing sounds came, mixed with hoarse cries for help. However, a moment later, a man bathed in blood ran over like crazy. There were several wounds on his body, and blood flowed like water. Especially the two on his abdomen and chest, it was even more shocking.
Shen Shi frowned on the tree. He looked at the severely injured man who had suddenly appeared under the tree. He saw this man running over from afar, running closer and closer. However, he could tell that he was seriously injured. His footsteps were also slowing down, and he staggered as if he would collapse at any moment.
Behind this man, another figure suddenly appeared in the depths of the forest. His figure was swift and he quickly chased after him. It looked like he was also a man. There was also a trace of blood on his body, but there were no wounds on his body. It was as if he was splashed with blood.
The distance between one man and the other man was rapidly shrinking. The man in front of him had a dejected expression after the pursuers appeared. Despair flashed across his face. The man behind him smiled sinisterly and said, “A mere little bewilderment formation wants to block me? Die!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he had already caught up to the man not far behind him. A sharp light flashed through his hand. It was unknown what kind of weapon it was. It directly hit the man in front of him on the back. The man who was severely injured and dying immediately spat out blood. He fell forward and his hands and feet twitched. His entire body curled up.
At this moment, the two of them were chasing after each other all the way. Unknowingly, they had already arrived at the place where Shen Shi was located. Shen Shi could clearly see that the man who had fallen to the ground was gradually lowering his voice. After a few painful groans, he finally tilted his head and became silent again.
At this moment, the man behind him walked over and kicked the dead man’s head. He sneered. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly seemed to have sensed something. His body trembled and he suddenly raised his head. At that moment, his gaze suddenly saw Shen Shi on the big tree not far from him.
The man’s expression changed slightly. He stared at Shen Shi, who was sitting on a tree. Obviously, he did not expect such an unexpected appearance in the forest. Shen Shi was also silent, and his gaze did not retreat. However, there were already two more talismans hidden in his palm quietly.
The two of them were on the tree and under the tree. After a moment of silence, the man under the tree suddenly snorted and waved his hand. A white light suddenly flew back to his hand from the corpse. It was a strange-shaped ice blade. It was like a knife but not a knife. There was a sharp hook in front of it. Looking at the blood stains, it was unknown how much blood had been stained.
The man held the strange weapon in his hand and raised his head to glance coldly at Shen Shi. Shen Shi looked at him calmly and remained silent.
After another moment of stalemate, the atmosphere in the forest suddenly became a little cold. However, after a while, the man under the tree seemed to have thought of something. Finally, he began to slowly retreat. Not long later, he disappeared into the depths of the forest and no one was seen again.
Shen Shi waited for a while before jumping down from the tree with the Little Hei pig. Looking at the bloody scene in the morning and the corpse of the unknown man lying in front of him, he didn’t know what to say for a moment.
The world was indeed cruel. The slaughter seemed to never stop. People could be seen everywhere, but they could die at any time.
Shen Shi noticed that there was a black bear embroidered on the corpse’s clothes. It looked like the symbol of a sect, just like the bright golden rainbow pattern on the clothes of Ling Xiao Sect disciples. Actually, if it wasn’t for his lack of cultivation, and if he walked alone and wore the uniform of a disciple of the Soaring Firmament Sect, with the prestige and prestige of the Soaring Firmament Sect, he would be able to save a lot of trouble. At the same time, he would also be backed by the sect. At least in Haizhou, that kind of prestige was not bad.
However, Shen Shi had never been very interested in this kind of vanity. Moreover, he walked alone in the wilderness. His cultivation had only just reached the Origin Condensation Realm, and his strength was truly insufficient. He dressed rashly in the uniform of a Lingxiao Sect disciple. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed that it was more dangerous than he had obtained. Therefore, he had always worn casual clothes when he descended the mountain. On the other hand, Shen Shi carefully recalled the clothes that the dead man was wearing. He seemed to have a faint impression that he belonged to a small sect called Mountain Bear Hall in Haizhou.
As for who the murderer was and what grudges he had with this sect, it was not something that Shen Shi could know at this moment.
He took one last glance at the corpse on the ground. After a moment of silence, he silently walked past him and walked out of the forest. Only the unhappy corpse was left, as if it had been forgotten by the entire world, quietly lying in this secluded forest.

Mount Gaoling stretched for tens of thousands of kilometers, and its peaks rose and fell. Logically speaking, it was extremely difficult to find a grave. However, after the news of the birth of the tomb was leaked out, the location of the tomb was no longer a secret.
Before entering the mountain, Shen Shi had asked carefully. After paying a small price, he learned the general content of the rumors about the most popular treasure in Gaoling City. About half a year ago, a tremendous earthquake occurred in the depths of Gaoling Mountain. Even Gaoling City, which was far away from the mountain, could feel a slight shaking. In the next few months or so, several waves of cultivators searching for treasures in the mountains discovered that there was actually a large cemetery in a valley that had been sealed off by giant rocks in the depths of the mountain range.
No one knew the origins of this mausoleum or even the entrance to the mausoleum. However, it was said that just the various stone sculptures and watches on the surface were rare treasures. It was not difficult to imagine how prominent the identity of the owner of this mausoleum was. Logically speaking, the treasure tomb in this mausoleum must be astonishing.
Logically speaking, the cultivators who discovered this treasure should have kept their mouths shut to explore for treasures themselves. However, for some reason, this news was spread out in the end, and it spread like wildfire. Now, not only cultivators from the Sea Continent, but also cultivators from several nearby states had rushed over, causing the winds and clouds around Mount Gaoling to gather and become endlessly lively.
After listening to these rumors, Shen Shi shook his head. This kind of information was useless. Other than the approximate location of the valley, it was as if nothing had been said. However, most of the rumors in the city were like this. On the contrary, if there was really any secret news, everyone who knew would definitely guard it tightly and would not reveal it at all.
Shen Shi’s hopes for his luck in the future diminished a bit. However, he sighed. In the end, he still brought Blackie into Gaoling Mountain.
Alpine Mountain was 10,000 kilometers in radius. There were many paths to enter the mountain. As long as there were cultivators with Dao Cultivation, they could enter the mountain range from almost every direction. As for those cultivators with profound Dao Cultivation and even wealthy families who possessed rare flying magic treasures, they were even more carefree. Shen Shi had personally seen a few cultivators fly over his head.
To be able to travel through the heavens and the earth without any external force, one had to rely solely on one’s own strength. This was a great divine ability that only Origin Core Realm Grand Daoists could possess. Under the Origin Core Realm, regardless of whether it was the Divine Concept or the Origin Condensation Realm, anyone who wished to fly freely like an immortal would have to rely on flying magic treasures or spirit artifacts. The difference is, The cultivation of the Divine Concept far surpassed that of the Origin Condensation Stage. The magic treasures he could use were much more powerful, Sometimes, they could even directly refine their own magic treasures to increase their ability to fly. For example, the Three Swords of Soaring Heavens that Shen Shi had seen in the past were all extremely powerful cultivators in the Divine Concept. Driving magic treasures to fly through the air was not as high as reaching the nine heavens as a Grand Daoist at the Origin Core Realm, but they were still like lightning, causing people to feel unattainable.
As for Origin Condensation Realm cultivators, If you want to fly in the air, You have to be able to obtain a very rare flying spirit artifact, Moreover, the altitude and speed of the flight were limited. However, even so, it was still extremely convenient to fly by air. It was said that some young masters in Floating Cloud City would often think of a way to fly down in the sky when they wanted to show off in front of the girl they liked.
Shen Shi stood on the mountain path towards the depths of Mount Gao Ling. When he looked up, he saw a similar scene. In front of him was a young man riding a sword-shaped spirit artifact. He flew two laps in the sky, and then slowly descended. Immediately, a young girl standing on the ground clapped her hands and greeted him with a smug smile on his face.
Beside the two men and women, there were also several followers. They were all cultivators with Dao Cultivators. Among them, there were some older men who were more stable. At this moment, they had frowned slightly and looked around.
On the mountain path, there were quite a few cultivators entering the mountain. Although there were many cultivators scattered along the mountain path, there were still quite a few people in this direction. There were three or four waves of people around Shen Shi. This scene was also seen by everyone.
Shen Shi walked alone, looking ordinary and ordinary. Little Hei followed at his feet. At this moment, he seemed to be very honest. Other than running back and forth to the roadside, there was nothing unusual about him.
A cold snort came from not far behind Shen Shi. Shen Shi’s gaze tilted slightly. He looked behind him and discovered that there were five people in the group behind him, all men. That cold snort was made by a tall man. He looked coldly at the laughter that was coming from the young man and woman in front of him, as if they were traveling in the mountains. A trace of malice flashed across his eyes.
Shen Shi frowned. Just as he was about to turn around and ignore it, a flash of light suddenly swept across the corner of his eyes. He saw that there was actually a black bear pattern on the sleeves of the five men’s clothes.
Shen Shi was stunned. Almost immediately, he remembered the man he saw killed in front of him this morning. At about the same time, the man who snorted coldly seemed to have sensed something and turned around to look at him.
