Beyond Perfection Lies Another Realm

Lin Feng slowly approached the two little Wild Boars.

The two little Wild Boars grew alert, raising their heads to look at Lin Feng as they made snorting sounds.

They seemed to be saying, "Take one more step forward and we'll bite you."

Lin Feng pulled the iron staff from his back and continued forward.

If Lin Feng had drawn his bow and fired arrows, the two little Wild Boars might have hesitated.

But Lin Feng had taken out a completely nonthreatening stick.

The two little Wild Boars exchanged a glance, then squealed as they charged at Lin Feng together.

Lin Feng sidestepped and brought his staff down on one Wild Boar's brow.

Bang! The Wild Boar looked as though it had slammed into a wall, its rear even lifting into the air.

Then its body jerked, and it lay on the ground twitching.

A Wild Boar's vital point was above the space between its eyes—right in the center of its forehead.

If that spot was struck accurately and forcefully, it was possible to kill a Wild Boar in one blow.

Lin Feng had just struck that exact spot with his iron staff. Because he had used enough force, the blow had killed it instantly.

When the other Wild Boar saw its companion fall, it not only failed to flee but became even more ferocious.

Bang! Lin Feng repeated the same move, cracking this Wild Boar's brow with one strike of his iron staff.

This Wild Boar also collapsed and did not rise again.

Only Lin Feng could have done this. Any other hunter who encountered these two Wild Boars would surely have been left with a pounding headache.

Wild Boars liked to rub tree resin over their bodies, then coat themselves in mud and gravel.

It was the equivalent of a natural suit of armor, one that ordinary people found difficult to break through.

Lin Feng dragged the Wild Boars to a stream at the edge of the mountain range.

Following the method his father had taught him, he drained their blood, skinned them, and gutted them.

After giving them a simple cleaning, he gathered some dry firewood and started a fire, preparing to roast suckling pig.

Animals in this world were generally larger than those from his previous life.

So these two Wild Boars still counted as suckling pigs.

Lin Feng skewered the pork on a branch, cut several slits into the meat, and rubbed it with coarse salt.

Then he slowly roasted it over the fire.

Lin Feng was not afraid that the aroma of roasting meat would attract other beasts. If they came, he would kill them. That would save him the trouble of going out to look for them.

Half an hour later, the roasted suckling pig's skin had turned golden, crisp, and fragrant.

Lin Feng sliced off a piece with his dagger and put it into his mouth to chew.

With every bite, he could hear the crisp crunch.

Beneath the crackling skin, the meat was tender and juicy, melting in his mouth with a faint fragrance that left an endless aftertaste.

"Not bad at all! Roasted suckling pig is on par with grilled prawns.

"It would taste even better with a few more seasonings, but sadly, my family only has coarse salt."

After Lin Feng had filled his stomach, he had eaten only one-tenth of it.

Lin Feng immediately summoned his status panel. With a thought, he added two Breakthrough Points to Beast Hunting Fist.

The status panel changed.

Name: Lin Feng.

Vitality: 14.

Martial Skills:

Six Arrow Hunter's Bow (Unranked) (Not Started).

Beast Hunting Fist (Unranked) (Perfected).

Mad Demon Staff Technique (Unranked) (Not Started).

Breakthrough Points: 0

After Beast Hunting Fist broke through to Perfection, his Vitality attribute rose by two points, from twelve to fourteen.

Memories of practicing Beast Hunting Fist flooded into his mind.

In those memories, Lin Feng had painstakingly trained Beast Hunting Fist for another six years, smashing several great trees that required one person to encircle them.

He had gone into the mountains alone to hunt, facing the siege of dozens of vicious wolves with effortless ease.

He possessed the bearing of Invincible Beneath Demonic Beasts.

After the breakthrough, Lin Feng became ravenously hungry again, an intense hunger sweeping through his entire body.

Lin Feng hurriedly started eating. Before long, nothing remained of the suckling pig but bones.

After eating, Lin Feng immediately felt refreshed and invigorated, his body brimming with strength.

Fourteen points of Vitality already surpassed that of an ordinary person by a great margin.

His physical fitness had undergone a fundamental improvement.

Lin Feng grabbed a Wild Boar bone and gave it a light squeeze, crushing it into powder.

When Lin Feng checked the status panel, he discovered that Beast Hunting Fist could actually still be improved after reaching Perfection.

Lin Feng tapped Beast Hunting Fist with his thoughts and found that the next realm actually required ten Breakthrough Points.

That was rather outrageous.

For him, ten Breakthrough Points only took ten days to accumulate.

But for someone with talent similar to his, it was equivalent to thirty or forty years of grueling training.

What kind of realm was this, to require so much time?

Lin Feng was very curious. He decided to first save up ten Breakthrough Points and try breaking through.

What if the breakthrough made him incredibly powerful?

For him, ten Breakthrough Points were only ten days' worth of saving.

Even if the next realm of Beast Hunting Fist was not particularly impressive after breaking through, there would be no great loss.

He could save up the Breakthrough Points first.

If Old Wang Next Door returned within ten days, he would put the accumulated Breakthrough Points into Mad Demon Staff Technique.

Then he would compare Wind Demon Staff Technique and Beast Hunting Fist. Whichever martial art was stronger, he would use it to deal with Old Wang Next Door.

Lin Feng put out the fire and prepared to leave.

Squeal, squeal! The sound of a Wild Boar's howl rang out again.

Following the sound with his gaze, Lin Feng saw a huge Wild Boar in the distance, its body at least two meters long.

This enormous Wild Boar had blood-red eyes, thick fur, sharply defined muscles, and long tusks jutting from the corners of its mouth, gleaming with a cold, razor-sharp light.

The huge Wild Boar's gaze was filled with hatred.

Lin Feng guessed that the two little Wild Boars he had just killed were this huge Wild Boar's offspring.

The huge Wild Boar had come for revenge.

Thump, thump. The huge Wild Boar scraped the ground twice with one front hoof, then suddenly charged at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng felt as if a small car were speeding toward him at full tilt.

Just as the Wild Boar was about to ram Lin Feng, Lin Feng used Eagle Leaving Nest to leap five or six meters forward, landing behind it.

Lin Feng deliberately wanted to use this huge Wild Boar to test his skills.

The huge Wild Boar slammed on the brakes, its four hooves plowing two deep furrows into the ground.

After stopping, the huge Wild Boar turned and charged at Lin Feng again.

Lin Feng sidestepped and unleashed Fierce Tiger Pounces on Prey, smashing both fists into the huge Wild Boar's flank.

Crack! Crack! Squeal!

Several of the huge Wild Boar's ribs broke, and it let out a piercing shriek.

The huge Wild Boar's armor was as useless as paper before Lin Feng.

After using only two moves, Lin Feng understood the extent of his strength.

He truly was Invincible Beneath Demonic Beasts.

Forget Wild Boars—even the tigers and black bears in the mountains and forests were no match for him.

From now on, he could swagger sideways through the outskirts of Big Black Mountain.

After being injured, the huge Wild Boar did not flee. Instead, it became even more frenzied.

Squeal! The huge Wild Boar roared and charged at Lin Feng again.

This time, Lin Feng neither dodged nor avoided it. He used Poisonous Snake Spits Tongue to strike the huge Wild Boar's brow.

Crack! The huge Wild Boar's skull shattered.

Half of Lin Feng's palm plunged into the huge Wild Boar's head.

The huge Wild Boar did not even have time to grunt before collapsing to the ground.

His luck had been good on this trip into the mountains.

If he took these two Wild Boars back, cut off a few good pieces of meat as tuition for Mr. Hong, the rest would be enough to feed his whole family for half a month.

Lin Feng dragged the huge Wild Boar to the stream as well and processed it, washing the offal.

Lin Feng in his previous life had quite liked pork liver and fatty intestines.

This huge Wild Boar's liver and fatty intestines would surely be even more fragrant.

Lin Feng washed the offal clean and put it into his backpack.

With the huge Wild Boar slung over his shoulder and the little Wild Boars in his right hand, Lin Feng happily headed home.

He had only taken two steps when he heard a sharp whoosh.

A warning rose in Lin Feng's heart, and the hairs on his back stood on end.
