The Capital's Dragon Doctor

Seeing this, Lin Feng abruptly shifted sideways, a short sword appearing in his hand with a flick of his wrist.

He thrust the sword, and the blade flashed with a cold, silver light, seeming to tear through space itself. The short sword grazed past the brown bear's throat.

Lin Feng used the force of the thrust to once again put distance between himself and the brown bear, watching it from afar with his short sword in hand.

"ROAR!"

The brown bear roared, and within its newly awakened mind, it felt a sliver of fear.

In that instant, it had clearly felt that Lin Feng was truly trying to take its life. Moreover, Lin Feng's attack style was too bizarre, making it difficult to parry.

The brown bear's body trembled slightly. It had already sensed from their exchange that this human was an utterly terrifying being!

Even Xiong Ba, the strongest and most physically powerful of their brown bear clan, might not be his opponent.

"WHOOSH!"

The brown bear suddenly shot toward Lin Feng. Lin Feng, in turn, retreated rapidly. He had just completed a full combo and needed a moment to regulate his breathing and recover his stamina, but the brown bear's speed remained astonishing.

The brown bear's two thick, powerful legs suddenly stomped on the ground. Its massive paw, generating a fierce gale, swiped toward Lin Feng. Seeing this, Lin Feng hastily retreated.

But the bear's massive, fan-like paw viciously struck his body, sending him flying backward.

However, since he had anticipated the blow, he twisted his body to deflect most of the terrifying force and landed lightly about thirty feet away.

"BAM!"

Lin Feng propped himself up with one hand, grabbing a tree trunk to steady his body before looking up at the brown bear.

"You really have a thick hide, don't you!"

Lin Feng said with a faint smile. The brown bear's hide was simply too thick; even his Lingxi Finger had only managed to leave a shallow mark. The impact had also sent a stinging pain through the webbing of his hand.

Hearing Lin Feng comment on its thick hide, the brown bear burned with rage. It was precisely because of this formidable defense that it had become the Beast King of this region.

But today, it had been insulted by a mere human. This sent it into an uncontrollable fury.

"AWOOOO!"

The brown bear threw its head back and let out a long howl. It then stared at Lin Feng with bloodshot eyes as its massive body began to transform. Strands of dark brown bristles emerged, and its already mountain-like frame seemed to swell even larger.

Seeing the brown bear's savage appearance, Lin Feng's heart tightened. He could clearly sense that the bear was now in a berserk state, and a berserk bear was a terrifying thing indeed.

Sure enough, the brown bear's body suddenly swelled by another degree. Its sharp fangs and cavernous, bloody maw were enough to make one's scalp tingle with fear.

With a single leap, the brown bear launched itself into the air. Its colossal body cast a shadow as it came crashing down on Lin Feng, the powerful gust of wind from its descent shattering even the hardest rocks.

Lin Feng's expression turned grim as he retreated hastily. He realized the brown bear was about to unleash its full power; in his current state, he had no chance of blocking the attack.

"BANG!"

With a thunderous crash, the spot where he had just stood exploded, leaving a deep crater. Dust and debris filled the air, obscuring the sun. Yet, within that swirling cloud of dust, Lin Feng stood perfectly still.

The brown bear's pupils constricted as it stared at the human before it. Only now did it sense the approach of danger—a lethal danger.

But the brown bear was no fool. Seeing that Lin Feng had dodged its attack, it began to paw at the ground, preparing to flee.

Lin Feng snorted coldly. He stomped his foot, cracking the hard stone beneath him, and his entire body shot forward like an arrow released from a bowstring.

His speed was simply phenomenal. Despite the brown bear's powerful build, Lin Feng caught up to it in an instant.

Lin Feng's Body Technique was fast, but at this moment, the brown bear was even faster. It kicked off the ground with both hind paws, its body launching forward like a cannonball. Its two massive claws swiped directly at Lin Feng, a cruel smile spreading across its muzzle.

Seeing the bear charge, Lin Feng came to a screeching halt. He stomped his right foot into the ground, creating another deep pit and instantly stopping his forward momentum. Immediately, he crossed his arms to guard his chest.

"CLANG!"

A muffled thud echoed as the brown bear's claws slammed into Lin Feng's arms. Lin Feng slid backward from the impact, not stopping until he had snapped an ancient tree as thick as a bowl. Only then did he slowly get back to his feet.

Lin Feng flexed his arms. Even he had found that last blow difficult to handle; the brown bear's strength was truly terrifying.

The brown bear, however, was also stunned. The impact had sent a jolt of pain through its own claws. 'How can this human's body be so solid? It's like he's made of steel!'

Despite its shock, the brown bear didn't hesitate. It charged forward again, this time with even greater speed. If this swipe were to land, it felt it could crush even solid metal.

Seeing the brown bear's incredible speed, Lin Feng's expression grew solemn. 'This bear is too fast. I have to avoid a direct confrontation, or I'll easily be at a disadvantage.'

With a flicker of his body, he dodged the brown bear's attack. He then swung both his hands, sending Fist Gangs whistling through the air as they blasted toward the brown bear's body with a piercing shriek.

Seeing these Fist Gangs coming at it, the bear ducked low and dodged them. Though it was clumsy, it still possessed the instinct to evade attacks.

Seeing his attack miss yet again, Lin Feng once more leaped into the air. He somersaulted to dodge another of the brown bear's attacks, then aimed a whip kick at its head.

The brown bear once again twisted to the side to evade, but Lin Feng's attack immediately followed. This time, the bear failed to dodge. The whip kick struck it squarely on the shoulder, causing it to stumble and fall to a sitting position on the ground.

"ROAR!"

The brown bear howled in rage, leaping up once more to pounce on Lin Feng. However, Lin Feng paid its attack no mind, simply dodging out of the way.

The moment the brown bear landed again, Lin Feng found his opportunity, slamming an elbow strike into the nape of its neck.

"THWACK!"

This elbow strike, containing nearly eighty percent of his power, smashed the brown bear straight into the ground.

"ROAR!"

The brown bear's furious roars echoed continuously, but Lin Feng paid them no heed. He closed the distance once more and rained another flurry of blows down on the bear.

The brown bear's reactions were quick, but ultimately, its movements were too slow. Lin Feng's speed, on the other hand, was simply too great. After a few more exchanges, Lin Feng had the brown bear completely suppressed.
