“Ding! Your shooting skill has successfully upgraded to level 3!”
Shooting Level 3 (0/100): Master the use of various weapons, from pistols to rifles to bows and arrows, with this skill!
As the system elevated Jiang Hao's shooting skill to Level 3, he instantly felt an impeccable connection between the gun in his hand and himself. It was as if he could wield it as easily as moving his fingers, making feats like shooting an arrow through a hundred paces seem trivial.
Having toyed with the gun for a while, the initial novelty wore off for Jiang Hao. That's when he remembered the map he had seized from Gu Quanzhong. Stowing all his firearms in the System Space, he took out the map for a closer look. Despite studying it for quite some time, Jiang Hao couldn't make heads or tails of the cryptic illustrations, which left him feeling frustrated. He tucked the map away.
?Guided by Xiao Soong, Jiang Hao ventured deeper into the heart of the primeval forest. Time flew by, and before long, he decided it was time to head back.
Suddenly, a subtle sense of danger washed over him, triggering his danger perception instinctively. Xiao Soong, sensing the peril, halted and growled lowly, its gaze fixed ahead with wary caution.
?Jiang Hao's attention was also fixed forward; aside from Xiao Soong's growls, an eerie silence enveloped them, the kind of quiet that sends shivers down one's spine.
?Jiang Hao was about to deploy his Insect Controlling Arts to send insects ahead to scout when a chill ran down his spine. Without a moment's delay, a machete materialized in his hand, and he spun around, delivering a fierce chop!
“Xiao Soong, run for it!”
In an instant, Xiao Soong got the message. With a thunderous roar, it sprinted with Jiang Hao on its back towards an opening!
Despite its bulky frame, the bear's speed was no laughing matter!
Meanwhile, the trees around them seemed to be moving backward.
Above, countless sharp wooden vines rained down from the sky, brutally stabbing into the ground!
Jiang Hao shuddered at the sight of the ravaged earth.
Had he been impaled, wouldn't that have been a chilling, heart-stopping experience?
At that moment, the vines appeared to gain intelligence, anticipating Xiao Soong's escape route and moving to block their path!
Seeing this, Jiang Hao didn't hesitate. He leapt from Xiao Soong's back, Mountain-Splitting Knife in hand.
Charging ahead of Xiao Soong, he cut down the intercepting vines one by one, as if they were mere playthings!
