The Great Road of Shading the Sky

Chapter 224 The fairy stroked my head, gently touching me with a light touch!
The Taihang Mountains stretch endlessly and are extremely magnificent.

There have always been many wild animals in the mountains. Hunting was prohibited in the past, but now the ban has become meaningless.

The reason is simple: humans can obtain many exotic fruits to evolve, so wild beasts that are already in the mountains and fields naturally have an even greater advantage.

After all, deep mountains and marshes are a paradise for flowers, plants and trees, and there are more exotic beasts than exotic people. If you really go into the mountains, it's not necessarily a matter of who hunts whom!

Three figures moved through the mountains and forests as if walking on flat ground, and soon entered the depths of the Taihang Mountains.

Along the way, Chu Feng observed carefully, looking around for any strange fruits, but unfortunately he found nothing.

"Wait, why are you going that way?"

He turned his head and suddenly realized that the ox had run to the other side, while Shaohua was still walking ahead, gazing at a majestic, ancient mountain.

"Hurry up and follow." Shao Hua stopped when she heard this, turned around and waved to him.

"That's a dangerous place, with too many ferocious beasts!" Chu Feng's expression changed slightly.

That place is not the Taihang Mountains in the usual sense, but a primordial mountain that emerged with the changes in the world. It is tens of thousands of meters high, shrouded in clouds and mist, with the roars of beasts echoing everywhere, and occasionally huge ferocious birds can be seen circling by.

Even from a great distance, you can feel that primal yet menacing aura.

“That’s right, there’s plenty of prey here,” Shao Hua nodded.

Chu Feng opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything. He could only grit his teeth and turn away.

Others would risk their lives to accompany a gentleman, but he would risk his life to accompany a fairy!
"Moo~" The yellow ox grinned. This was its suggestion, which successfully persuaded the other person by arguing that Chu Feng lacked practical experience.

Simply practicing boxing in the yard is useless; it's just empty talk. As a true member of the Bull Clan, it believes that the Bull Demon Fist must be honed in such a harsh environment.

Shaohua agreed with this point and couldn't help but marvel at the wonderful relationship between the ox and the human. They cared for each other, and this was a friendship that transcended races, which was deeply touching!

It's just that Chu Feng doesn't know this yet, otherwise he would have to fight the scalpers to the death.

After the Taihang Mountains underwent an anomaly, hundreds of mysterious giant mountains appeared in this region, and the one they were heading to was only one of them.

Before long, they approached the massive mountain, which felt like stepping into a vast plateau with towering ancient trees and thick vines, presenting a primeval scene.

"The ox came from here; other ferocious beasts don't seem to be able to get through," Chu Feng said, revealing the ox's secrets without any hesitation.

"Moo!" The yellow ox glared at him and immediately told Shao Hua that its ancestors came from this planet and that it was returning home, which was why it was able to come over without any problems.

"So, they can't get out, but we can come and go as we please?" Shao Hua asked with a faint smile.

The scalper nodded, assuring him that he could come and go as he pleased.

"Let's go then." Shaohua pulled a small sapling, no more than a foot tall, from her bosom. It was the willow tree that had originally been planted in the yard.

This is its true form; it's still just a sapling.

It seemed to have grown up before, but it was actually more like a manifestation of its form, simply getting bigger. Sensing that she was about to leave, it seemed to have sentience, immediately reverting to its original form and snuggling into her arms, insisting on following her.

Shaohua had no choice but to take it with her.

Fortunately, the willow saplings are quite miraculous; they thrive even without taking root in the soil.

She styled her hair into a simple bun, then reached out and ran her hand over the sapling. Its straight, immaculate roots gathered up like the tip of a calligraphy brush, and she casually tucked them diagonally into her hair, looking quite unruly.

The fine side roots then spread out, firmly securing the soft strands of hair that were about to slip away.

At the other end of the tree canopy, the twelve branches also changed their posture, intertwining together, with one hundred and eight tender twigs hanging down like tassels, crystal clear, even more beautiful than gold and jade.

"Moo!" the ox warned, noting that the willow hairpin and clothing were too different in style.

Shao Hua blinked, and in a flash, her long pants and T-shirt transformed into a light blue ancient-style dress, making her look ethereal.

"Is this okay?!"

Chu Feng's eyes lit up. This perfectly matched the image and temperament of the celestial fairy in his mind. She was indeed otherworldly and beautiful as if in a dream.

But when he saw the fairy give him a meaningful smile, he immediately sensed something was wrong.
"Is it beautiful?" A devilish whisper echoed softly.

"It looks great." Could he possibly say it doesn't?

The next moment, the world spun around, and Chu Feng felt a familiar sense of weightlessness.

"What a disgusting feeling!"

Shao Hua smiled and quietly released a wisp of her aura, startling away the ferocious beasts within several miles. She wouldn't risk harming her own precious son.

"Once you enter the mountains, you don't necessarily have to risk your life. Your primary task is to ensure your own survival, and then you can choose suitable prey to hunt."

"Living in the city for too long has made people lazy. Let's hone ourselves and let our wildness return. If you can walk out alive, you'll have graduated."

"Yes, remember, you must use the various movements of the Mighty Bull Demon Fist, keep your muscles tense, and seal your aura, otherwise those ferocious beasts will come looking for trouble."

After saying these three sentences, she asked the ox to accompany Chu Feng, waved her hand, turned around and drifted away, as if taking a leisurely stroll in the countryside, disappearing into the mountains and forests.

As the saying goes, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and if I don’t have any, I will enjoy my own happiness.

Chu Feng looked distressed. What happened to the fairy who promised to accompany him on his travels and protect him? How could she just leave like that?
Of course, he understood right from wrong, knowing that this person would not and had no reason to harm him, and that what he said made perfect sense.

Without real combat experience and fighting against ferocious beasts, no matter how beautiful your boxing skills are, they are just empty showmanship and meaningless.

The Taihang Mountains will soon be a gathering place for extraordinary people, and there will definitely be a great battle. Therefore, he is not opposed to it at all, but instead devotes himself to it wholeheartedly.

Although it's an adventure, it's also a process of self-transformation, adapting to the wilderness environment, coping with various crises, changing mindset, and honing oneself.

Along the way, Chu Feng saw many monsters and had some unexpected encounters, but fortunately, with the guidance of the yellow ox, he adapted quickly.

Not long after, he encountered a ferocious beast with three tails that resembled a giant tiger. The ox urged him to fight it so that he could practice his boxing skills.

"Kill!" Chu Feng shouted, gritting his teeth as he charged forward. His heart was pounding like a drum, and his adrenaline was surging. After all, he wasn't born in the Great Wilderness, so it was normal for him to be a little panicked.

After a bloody battle, his primal instincts were unleashed, and he smashed the three-tailed beast to death. Standing there covered in blood, his entire demeanor changed.

The smell of blood attracted predators from all directions. In the primeval forest, pairs of ferocious and terrifying eyes opened, and the hunter became the prey. A man and a cow were relentlessly pursued.

Fortunately, they were on the outskirts and did not encounter anything particularly terrifying.

Danger struck just as the man and the ox were about to leave. A huge, dark hand, as large as three houses, descended from the sky and slammed down, causing the entire forest to tremble violently, as if an earthquake had occurred. "Holy crap!"

Chu Feng felt a chill run down his spine, and the yellow ox bellowed as it charged with all its might toward the outside of the mountain pass.

Fortunately, they were only a few meters away from the outside of the mountain, narrowly escaping disaster.

When they turned back, their mouths dropped open in shock.

It was a giant ape-like beast that stood a hundred or two meters tall. It was completely black, and its fur was five or six feet long. Standing there, it looked like a small mountain.

It was this creature that pounced on them just now, slapping them down with its paw and nearly killing Chu Feng and Huang Niu.

The three-tailed beast they had dragged out to serve as food was now only half its hindquarters; the other half had been easily smashed into a pulp. Their hands and feet turned cold, and they broke out in a cold sweat.

And now? It's dead!

With a bang, the skull of the pitch-black giant ape jumped up and was forcibly pried open, its top bone shattered into pieces, and grayish-white liquid dripped out.

Chu Feng and Huang Niu were shocked. Even the latter, who had an extraordinary background, thought it would take a year or two to kill such a ferocious beast. Yet, it was "lifted off its head" just like that, with its skull separated from its head.

"Who killed it?" Chu Feng was shocked, and then he knew the answer.

A woman in a green robe danced in the wind, gracefully arriving with light steps, ethereal and otherworldly, radiant and otherworldly.

Shao Hua stood on the black ape's corpse, a smile on her fair face, waving to the man and the bull.

"My sister is amazing!" Chu Feng gave a thumbs up. Now he could truly feel her strength. No matter how much he imagined, it couldn't compare to the shock of a hundred-meter-tall behemoth crashing down.

Even if this is just the tip of the iceberg of her strength, it is enough to inspire awe.

The ox wrote three characters on the ground, revealing that the ferocious ape was the Black Divine Ape.

"I'll leave it to you to handle." Shaohua stood with her arms crossed to the side, her skirt spotless.

"It's a pity it's human-shaped, I can't bring myself to eat it. Ox, if you want to eat some, get some yourself," Chu Feng said to the ox.

"Moo!" The yellow ox was somewhat tempted. It wasn't human, and this was an ape. The flesh and blood of such a powerful creature would be a great tonic for it in its current state.

But after glancing at Shaohua standing beside it, it shook its head in disbelief and drew on the ground, writing: "Tooth extraction, bone removal."

The result was that they couldn't even break the skin, let alone the teeth; at most, they could break a few long hairs. The man and the cow looked at each other in silence, which was quite unsettling.

In the end, Shaohua couldn't stand it anymore. She shook her head, pulled the willow sapling that she was using as a hairpin from her head, and threw it at the black ape.

A willow sapling less than a foot long sprouted a root that pierced into the black ape's body without any hindrance, instantly draining all its blood and energy.

Chu Feng stared wide-eyed as the enormous ape, as big as a small mountain, turned into dust and vanished into nothingness, unaware that he had ash in his mouth.

The scalpers weren't much better off; their eyes were wide open like copper bells. For an Earth that has only just begun to recover, weren't those people and trees a bit too over-the-top?
It took them a long time to come to their senses and discover that only two finger bones and a piece of fur remained on the spot. It was obvious that these had been deliberately left behind.

"Let's go." Shao Hua bent down to pick up the willow sapling and saw that a thin, hair-like root was stained with a faint red, which was not very noticeable.

Clearly, this so-called black divine ape was nothing to Liu Shu; after draining it dry, it would only have a little bit of life force left.

But it's still pretty good for the two little ones.

Chu Feng and Huang Niu carried the remaining half of the three-tailed tiger, along with two finger bones and the fur, and ran all the way back to the old house.

After a quick cleanup, skinning and cleaning the three-tailed tiger, Chu Feng took out a black short sword he had picked up on his way back from Kunlun, disassembled it, and stuffed it all into two large freezers.

"I feel much better now, and I don't have to go out for many days." Chu Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon hearing this, Shao Hua picked up a large bone club over two meters long and gently tapped it on his head, then curled up the corner of her mouth and said, "Who said you don't have to go? You'll have to go every day from now on."

"."

Chu Feng wanted to cry but had no tears. In the end, he nodded. He knew very well that going there was dangerous, but the rewards would be huge. If he could deal with all kinds of dangers, he would definitely be transformed.

Just like now, he is so much stronger than before he went into the mountains.

That is a comprehensive improvement in courage, mentality, and experience, enabling one to proactively adapt to the foreseeable cruel and harsh environment of the future.

If you don't seize the opportunity now to improve yourself, you may have to pay with your blood and your life to gain experience in the future.

Over the next few days, Chu Feng went into the mountains every day to hone his skills, unleashing his potential in battles with ferocious beasts, and mastering the final move of the Mighty Bull Demon Fist.

Shaohua continued her leisurely daily life. She took a trip in the deep mountains and did not return empty-handed. She dug up a dozen exotic herbs, some of which were still bearing fruit.

The roots of these exotic plants are all wrapped with special soil, only the size of a fingernail, shiny, and colorful in purple and red.

"The exotic fruit grows from exotic plants, and these plants are closely related to this exotic soil, possessing special energy. Let's see if we can make that seed germinate."

She buried the last seed in this foreign soil, hoping it would take root and sprout.

She casually planted those exotic plants next to the willow tree that had been remodeled into a large tree. They seemed to have received some kind of nourishment, as none of them died and they were full of vitality.

As for the few cardamom pods, well, I'm sorry to say, she ate them on the way to quench her thirst, and they tasted pretty good.

The blood essence of the Black Divine Ape that the willow sapling absorbed, after being purified and cleansed, was reduced to a tiny wisp. It wasn't that it couldn't continue, but that further purification would eliminate it.

That wisp of pure blood energy was split in two and poured into those two finger bones, which were about to transform into magical artifacts. Every night, Chu Feng and Huang Niu would hug one of the bones to sleep, receiving nourishment from the blood energy.

"Huh? Why aren't you sleeping at night? Are you sneaking around like a thief?"

That night, Shaohua was sitting on the balcony counting stars and admiring the moon when she suddenly felt something. She looked up and saw a huge bat appear in mid-air, the darkness of the night posing no obstacle to her.

At the same time, another figure was rushing across the ground, also heading towards the courtyard.

These are two extraordinary individuals, even stronger than the guy who broke into the house before, but Chu Feng could easily handle them now.

Even from a distance, Shao Hua overheard their conversation. As expected, they were there to cause trouble for her eldest son, and were even planning to kill and set fire to his house.

"Little Chu, are you really that disliked?" She smiled. The night was nice, so it would be good to go for a walk.

In the darkness of night, a man and a woman suddenly felt a buzzing in their heads, as if someone had touched them, or more like a meteorite had hit the back of their heads. Their bodies stiffened, and they fell asleep immediately.

Shao Hua felt a little embarrassed. A few days ago, she had lifted the skull of the Black Ape and subconsciously gave the two of them a pat, almost losing control of her strength.
