Cultivation : I'm an Ancient Giant Bear

Chapter 78: Wildfire Spreads


"Boom!"

With a loud explosion, the Flame Crystal detonated just like that.

The extremely fierce flames caused a terrifying explosion in the confined space.

Wang Wu bore the brunt, directly enduring 200 points of explosion damage, but it wasn't a major issue.

He had 32 points of basic defense to rely on, so he could control this kind of damage, including the flame burn damage, which was nothing.

However, the web that bound Wang Wu wasn't so lucky; not only did it shatter into pieces under the blast but also rapidly caught fire, becoming combustible material.

Then Wang Wu heard a scream, full of emotional tension and richness, transitioning from shock to fear, from fear to anger, from anger to heartache, from heartache back to fury, layering perfectly within this one scream.

Wang Wu felt it was comparable to the best female opera singer on Earth.

But at this moment, he truly had no time or mood to appreciate this spider opera.

The moment he regained his freedom, he didn't care why the surroundings turned into a sea of fire or where he was; he howled and lunged at Lady Spider a few meters away.

Shoot the horse before the man, capture the king before the thief.

One mustn't forget the ancestors' admonition.

Previously, Wang Wu was considering establishing a sustainable development, ongoing economic trade cooperation relationship, so they could save face for each other. Now, face is nothing!

No cause, why should the raging flame spread!

With this strike, Wang Wu was truly filled with hatred, not caring even if he was entirely engulfed in flames, like a Hell Demon Bear emerging.

And maybe Lady Spider was panicked and disoriented, trying to salvage a few jars of Spider Daughter Red wine amidst the spreading fire, but hesitated and was directly pinned down by Wang Wu, despite the disparity in size akin to a small pony pulling a large cart. However, Wang Wu's claws were sharp enough.

The moment Wang Wu pinned down Lady Spider, his two front claws pierced her belly, easily creating two huge holes.

As for her defense, if it was 5 points, it would be impressive!

But the next second, toxic liquid sprayed out of these big holes, covering Wang Wu's head and face. At the same time, Lady Spider screamed frantically yet reacted quickly, spraying silk without restraint. As long as Wang Wu was trapped again, even if delayed for a few seconds, it would be enough for her to regain strength.

However, she had no idea what kind of opponent she had encountered.

Wang Wu couldn't possibly give her a chance to regain strength; he didn't care about the toxic liquid, the freely-spent silk, or limited vision. He transformed into a legendary pile driver, crazily expanding the holes in Lady Spider's belly while decisively unleashing 20 Ice Spiritual Qi points.

This was truly a trump card!

It's not just about the 20 Ice Spiritual Qi points but their impact inside Lady Spider's belly.

To compare, it's like the effect Wang Wu had after consuming a Flame Crystal.

Indeed, in that instant, Lady Spider stiffened. Despite only minor frost visible externally, internally, she'd long turned into a large icy lump.

Back then, Wang Wu had Level 10 Healing Talent, had 30 points of basic defense, 360 Life Value points, and 8 Flame Resistance points.

You old wretch, what do you have?

So, she was promptly finished in one move.

At this moment, Lady Spider's massive body finally couldn't maintain its balance and crashed down.

But Wang Wu didn't let go for a moment, falling together with her.

He thought he'd land on the ground but unexpectedly fell into a dark, huge tree hole.

And the fire had already spread here.

In the tree hole, there were dense spider webs and a lot of Spider Daughter Red wine, hanging on the tree walls like salted meat in the cellars of the landlord's home, all burning, with ample aromatic wine liquid pouring down, gathering into streams.

Even this wine liquid is burning!

Which led to the whole tree hole burning!

"Buzz buzz buzz!"

It's the Fly Warriors' sound; unknown how many Fly Warriors this Black Spider Race nurtured, seemingly sealed and sleeping here.

Now, they're all forcibly unsealed.

However, the fate of these Fly Warriors wasn't good; amidst such a large fire, there was no time to escape and they were burned to ashes.

While Wang Wu was feeling invigorated.

Still clutching onto Lady Spider with one claw, while madly drinking the unburned Spider Daughter Red wine.

"Gulp, gulp..."

Ecstasy! Ecstasy!

Wang Wu couldn't bother looking at the dense information prompts, including the fact that he was burning, his fur all scorched away, once again turning into a bald bear!

Whatever!

My Fire Poison Resistance, my Level 10 Self-Healing, my 370 Life Value points, exist for this moment!

In just over ten seconds, no Fly Warriors were flying out of the tree hole anymore, no more jars of Spider Daughter Red wine, and any spilled wine not drunk by Wang Wu, the rest turned into flames—now it was perfect, the entire tree was ignited.

As for Wang Wu, he glanced at the attribute bar, seeing Life Value still hovering above 200 points.

But his satiety had unprecedentedly broken through to 3500 points.

What a sin!

He didn't think he'd drunk that much, so how did his satiety increase so much?

Also, does this body have no upper limit in this regard?

However, it didn't feel too different, except that he couldn't enter Passive Concealment state, everything else was normal.

Is this a hidden talent of the bear kind, crazily storing fat when needed?

No matter, hahaha, I've really struck it rich this time!

Just this crazy drinking spree alone, apart from the 3500 satiety points, he somehow gained 20.1% in conventional growth and a total of 1700 points of Spiritual Qi in one go.

Of which, only 300 points can be effectively stored, the rest will dissipate after 24 hours.

So, what else is there to say?

Wang Wu stood amidst the fierce flames and started madly adding points to his Life Value attribute.

1700 points of Spiritual Qi were consumed in one go, with 1000 points directly adding two points to Basic Defense, and the rest all added to Life Value.

From the original 370 points, it surged all the way to 440 points.

Oh, actually it was 450 points.

Because his conventional growth has already increased from 45.6% to 65.7%, the basic attributes refreshed again, Power became 18 points, agility turned into 17 points, defense rose to 35 points, and even the satiety limit became 700 points.

Refreshing!

Great!

The feeling of striking it rich is just so delightful!

And the good news keeps coming.

Because of the excessive burning damage and his Level 10 Healing Talent, his Fire Poison Resistance successfully increased by one point, currently at (2/25).

This kind of Fire Poison Resistance can negate 10 points of burn damage with just one point.

Plus, with the Ordinary Level Perfect Flame Resistance already granted as a boost, his current total immunity value to normal flame burning damage is 55 points.

So, despite the raging flames in the tree hole at the moment, his actual damage per second is only in the single digits.

Of course, based on the scientific knowledge back on Earth, the flame temperature in this tree hole can't exceed 800 degrees, as the hole is moist, and it's only burning due to those Spider Daughter Red wine liquids.

For instance, this fire has noticeably diminished now, and it might extinguish after burning for another dozen seconds or so.

Still, it doesn't matter much.

He even sat down in the tree hole, watching the fire reduce while the smoke rolled, feeling delighted and grinning foolishly.

This is a great place, a feng shui treasure ground, and he's not leaving today.

Outside had quieted down, and no sign of the Black Spiders could be seen, as if they were frightened stupid, which makes sense — without Lady Spider to direct them, the Black Spider Race can no longer be considered a powerful demon force.

But who knows if the other three demon powers will take the opportunity to loot the burning house?

But this has nothing to do with Wang Wu, he leaned against the tree trunk and before long, actually fell asleep.

This is also a downside of his Level 10 Healing Talent; although it has no cooldown time, when activated frequently, especially after opening the rapid healing mode multiple times, it will enter a state of weakness and drowsiness post-battle, similar to losing too much blood.

In ordinary times, a nap would fix it, but if limbs are crippled or the body is too severely damaged and requires 1000 points of satiety to heal, a long period of weakness after healing is inevitable. For now, Wang Wu doesn't know how to tackle this, he can only continuously boost his Life Value.

While Wang Wu snoozed soundly in the tree hole, a battle broke out outside at an unknown time.

First, the Black Beetle Race suddenly assembled troops and launched a surprise attack on the Black Spider Race, which suffered a quick defeat; then, further away, the Black Mountain Sparrow Race joined the fray, launching an indiscriminate assault on both the Black Spider and Black Beetle Races, completely dominating them.

However, throughout, the Armed Wild Bee Race did not participate in the battle.

So, when the Black Beetle Race was forced to abandon its assault on the Black Spider Race, the Black Mountain Sparrow Race also retreated with their spoils, arrogant and triumphant.

The remaining Black Spiders fled into the wilderness under the lead of a few surviving large spiders, whereabouts unknown.

When Wang Wu awoke, refreshed and back at his peak state, looking up he saw a few stars — it was nighttime, and who knows how much time had passed. The Black Spiders hadn't returned to attack, were they planning to starve him out?

"Surely they can't be scared into submission, right?"

Wang Wu thought happily to himself, and turning his head to glance at Lady Spider's corpse, his mood improved even more.

Stretching carefreely, he could hear the bones in his body crackling, as if his body had grown a bit.

But without a reference, it's hard to tell.

Opening the attribute bar, he saw his conventional growth indeed skyrocketed, from 65.7% not long ago to 68%, an increase of 2.3% in less than twenty-four hours. Wow, it really proves that the more you eat, the more you grow.

As for his satiety, it had currently dropped to 2000 points, what a sturdy digestion ability.

"Oh no!"

A slight movement made Wang Wu feel an urge to relieve himself then and there.

Bears have their natural bodily functions too.

Glancing at the tree hole exit at least thirty meters high, then at the vivid corpse of Lady Spider beside him.

Wang Wu quickly dismissed the thought of climbing out, because without a doubt, if he dared to leave this tree hole and couldn't take the several hundred kilograms sleeping Lady Spider with him, he would end up with nothing when he returned.

He was not going to make such a mistake.
