Chronicles of Primordial Wars Chapter 195

Many people went there, but some didn’t follow. Instead of fighting against the ferocious beast, they cherished their own lives. Even though they hesitated for a while, after hearing the roar, they knew the men who had gone there suffered a bad fate.

They felt they were fortunate that they didn’t follow them.

Taking a deep breath, the men hiding in the bushes were happy they made this choice.

Having sneaked close to them, Shao Xuan jumped from the branch and slashed with the sword in his hand.

Another man died.

Shao Xuan counted the number silently, and slashed the sword horizontally to cut the snake that was about to bite him into two halves.

Ignoring the twisting snake and the man on the ground, Shao Xuan went to where the dire bear was.

In that place, the bear’s body had bite marks all over and several spears and arrows hanging out. Lying on the ground, it growled with a grievance at his opponents, it opened its mouth and roared loudly toward the direction of the people of the Wan Shi tribe. It seemed as if it was calling the mother bear: Mom, they bully me!

The dire bear always felt that it dominated this forest, so now it was angry, furious, and even crazy. Its ferocity could be felt from a great distance, so the other beasts and ferocious beasts in the forest stayed away. Even that group of preying birds also went back to their old home.

Having bitten a Wan Shi beast, the mouth of the dire bear was blood-red. The blood of the Wan Shi beast dyed the four fangs red. Big drops of blood were dripping from its mouth. When roaring, it spilled some blood on the people and the Wan Shi beasts.

The hunting teams of the Flaming Horns tribe stayed away from a furious dire bear.
Those from the Wan Shi tribe became its target, and almost all of them were slapped to death by its paw.

“Run in different directions!” The leader shouted.

In the forest where ferocious beasts lived, they were most afraid to meet a ferocious beast. If they met just a common ferocious beast, they could still defeat it. They could try to kill it. But in front of such a dire bear, they were intimidated and had no choice but to run away. Those who failed to escape would be killed one by one.

“Run!!”

You didn’t have to run very fast, as long as you ran faster than the others, you might be safe. This was known to everyone of the Wan Shi tribe.

The warrior who ran the fastest had never imagined that he would be so fortunate because he could run so fast. Although his strength wasn’t greater than others, but even the leader might not run faster than him.

When this man ran away from the forest and passed through a slightly large open area, a figure suddenly appeared from the sky and caught the fast running man.

The man felt as if he was caught by a hard stone, and even struggling hard couldn’t help him out.

Puff.

The claws pierced his body. Before his breath stopped, he saw the creature that caught him.

He hadn’t expected that after avoiding the dire bear he would be caught by another ferocious beast. If he had been given another chance, he wouldn’t have entered this forest. However, there were no ‘ifs’.

The men running away in different directions were killed by Shao Xuan and Chacha one by on one.

One day later.

Bang!

A stone sword hit another stone sword, the blades didn’t crack but some stone powder scattered.

Between Shao Xuan’s thumb and index finger there was a wound because of the hit of the blade and the force of vibration. The blood was running along the sword.

A figure flashed in the sky, so his opponent paused for a while to guard against the figure in the air.

Shao Xuan ignored the wound on his hand, turned his foot, and leaped to slash the sword fiercely.

The friction from the blade and the air created a whistling sound.

The man in front of Shao Xuan felt the great force through the sword and he wondered who this brat was. This brat was flexible, powerful and vicious. In their five teams, there were more than 100 men, and nearly twenty Wan Shi beasts. Now, how many of them were still alive?

After that, Shao Xuan chopped powerfully at him a second, a third, a fourth time… in a row. Before his opponent could relax, he needed to disrupt him. He told Chacha to cause trouble for him from the air from time to time to distract him. In this way, he could seize the opportunity to defeat him.

Shao Xuan felt his arm holding the sword was almost broken because of his continuous strikes.

“Jiao~~!”

In the air, Chacha became anxious and wanted to rush down.

His opponent noticed Chacha’s movement in the air, so he paused for a while again.

Now was the time to act!

Shao Xuan’s wrist flicked, this time he didn’t strike at him, Instead, he threw the sword at him.

His opponent reacted very fast and took a step back. At the same time he stopped the tip with his blade.

But when the stone sword was thrown, Shao Xuan immediately moved a step forward to keep up. At this moment, the ground below his feet dented. Shao Xuan ignored the sword flying towards him from his left and grabbed the sword that was blocked. It seemed as if he wanted to die together with him and slashed at him.

Go!

Shao Xuan felt as if he struck at him faster than ever. At he moment his hand was injured and his arm bones were about to break. But he believed that this time he slashed the sword the fastest since he started his hunting life. He could feel he could control the stone sword more skillfully and more accurately.

Puff!

Blood was running from the neck of the opponent.

When the opponent slashed at him, Shao Xuan also slightly moved his body. His chest was slashed directly.

The opponent opened his eyes wide and wondered why this brat didn’t get injuries on his body though he had slashed at him several times?

Shao Xuan struck him again, looked at the man ceasing to breathe on the ground, and then swung the stone sword to get rid of the blood on it.

The man on the ground was the leader of the fourth team of the Wan Shi tribe, which was ordered to enter the forest. Different from the previous few men, this man was a senior totem warrior. Thanks to the dire bear, his several attacks were weakened.

Although the Wan Shi tribe had a bad reputation, its warriors had to be powerful that they could be considered a group of strong warriors in the central region. Compared with junior totem warriors, senior totem warriors were much more difficult to deal with.

There were wounds on Shao Xuan’s arms, and legs. Only the part from the waist to the knees, which was covered by animal skin clothes and pants, did not bleed heavily. The last strike also did not make Shao Xuan bleed.

Moving aside the animal skin clothes that were cut open, Shao Xuan looked at the specially sewn shirt inside. The shirt was made of the skin from that special insect that had shed it off. He had gotten the skin when he followed Chacha to Eagle Mountain. This shirt had protected him from the most dangerous strikes.

When Shao Xuan had picked up the insect skin, he had never thought it would save his life.

However, although he was protected from the lacerations, he got many inner wounds. Several of his ribs were broken.

Quietly looking at the man on the ground, he felt there were many internal injuries in his body caused by the bloody two day war. After this, Shao Xuan knew that he was still not strong enough, and he couldn’t look down on anybody. If there had been two more senior totem warriors, the result would have been different.

The smell of blood filled the air. Shao Xuan touched the wound on his arm, looked at the sky, and walked into the woods.

Few people were still alive.

He didn’t go far and saw the warriors of the Wan Shi tribe escaping in different directions. Holding the sword, Shao Xuan rushed towards them attacked them.

One... two... three...

He had been awake for two days and a night. If he hadn’t been strong enough, he couldn’t have persisted until now.

When the sun began to go down on the other side of the mountain, Shao Xuan’s body was tainted with blood, carrying his sword, he moved in the direction of the old haunt.

The sword left by his ancestors was made of high quality stone. But after several battles, there were many marks left on the sword inevitably. There were many gaps of different sizes on the blade, so Shao Xuan planned to find a good grinding stone to sharpen it well.

In the air, Chacha looked around alertly. Although most of the loathsome men had been killed, they still had to be alert. Right now, Shao Xuan was out of energy.

Looking at the erect stone not far from him, Shao Xuan walked over, and put his bloody palm on the part of the stone that had been stripped of moss. His palm was put next to the words “Flaming Horns”.

Taking a deep breath, Shao Xuan sighed and withdrew his hand. He caught a fruit that Chacha threw to him and ate it to wet his dry throat. He found some herbs to smear his wounds. Rubbing his painful chest and stomach, he wondered how serious the internal injuries were.

Looking around, Shao Xuan quickly walked towards the direction of the fire pit, the center of the old haunt.

….

The chief of the Wan Shi tribe looked worried and stood on the border. He looked in the direction of the forest. Next to him, the shaman was also quietly standing there, also looking anxious.

Since yesterday, warriors had been coming back from the forest one after another. All of them were wounded and looked depressed. They didn’t bring back any useful information.

Some people said that they were scared off by ferocious beasts. Some people said that they were chased and injured by something hiding in the forest. No matter why they were injured, members of the Wan Shi tribe were worried. Their joy brought by the victory of the war against the other tribes disappeared.

In front, another man staggered back, and the leader asked a few men to bring him here.

“How many?” The shaman asked.

“The sixth.” The chief looked angrier.

More than a hundred men had entered the forest but now only six of them came back! Moreover, no teamleader came back!

None of the Wan Shi beasts came back!

Looking at the man being brought over, the chief strode towards him.

Seeing the face of the chief, the man shivered violently. Having already been scared in the forest, he saw the chief look angry so he was very frightened.

The chief ignored his shivering and asked him a few questions. These questions were the same he had asked the other few warriors. However, the other few warriors and this one had the same answers.

Who was the opponent?

Oh, no idea.

What did the opponent look like?

Oh, no idea.

Is the opponent a man or a ferocious beast?

Oh, no idea.

More than a hundred warriors had entered the forest, but finally less than ten came back. What’s worse, no one knew whether the opponent was a man or a ferocious beast!

When the chief was furious, he usually beat the man directly without saying anything.  This time he directly kicked the man.

He kicked away the man who was kneeling down in front of him. Turning his back on the man, the chief rushed back angrily.
