Chapter 144 The Dual Nature of the Law
Pa~!
[Ding! Scratching skill proficiency +1! (5555/10000)]
Before the giant bear could react, Cangnian flashed in front of it and slammed a claw down, accurately striking its vulnerable nose!
Awooo—!!!
With just that one blow, blood gushed from the bear's nose, leaving it a bloody mess!
It screamed in terror and fell backward with a heavy thud!
But before it could even roll over, Cangnian nimbly landed beside its fallen head and slapped it down again with its paw!
[Ding! Scratching skill proficiency +1! (5556/10000)]
This time, Cangnian photographed the eyes!
The giant bear has a strong body and thick skin.
But this does not include exposed areas.
In a typical fight between a tiger and a brown bear, the tiger will primarily attack the brown bear's head.
However, brown bears can stand upright, and as adults, brown bears are much taller than tigers when standing upright.
Moreover, although tigers have an advantage in attack speed and reaction speed when facing brown bears, this advantage is not so significant that brown bears are completely unable to defend themselves.
But now, Cang Nian's speed far exceeds that of this giant bear.
From the giant bear's perspective, it saw Cangnian rushing towards it, leaving afterimages. It tried to raise its paws to defend itself, but before the thought even formed, its nose was already injured.
The second attack was the same; it saw Cangnian flash to its head and instinctively raised its paw, which was covering its nose, to shield its eyes.
But the old man's claws had already landed on one of its eyes!
With just that one blow, one of the giant bear's eyeballs was shattered!
If it weren't for the shock-absorbing structure of its skull, Cangnian's claw attack would have at least given it a severe concussion!
Ouch~!
But just as Cangnian was about to continue his attack, the giant bear roared and swung its two thick forelimbs wildly, forcing Cangnian back!
Cang Nian didn't want to test his current combat strength and get injured, so he followed the giant bear's idea and took a light step back, just dodging the giant bear's wildly waving claws, not a bit more or less.
But then Cangnian realized that the giant bear's chaotic and unorthodox punches were not a sign of losing his mind.
With a roar, the soil on the ground climbed up the bear's hind legs and covered its body in just a few seconds!
Moreover, the soil was not just a simple adherence; it had become deadly hard, clearly possessing considerable defensive capabilities.
"Earth-based superpowers?"
Seeing this, Cang Nian muttered to himself.
Actually, if that wild boar hadn't been worn down to death by him, he might have gained an earth-based ability after the spiritual energy revival tide.
However, he wasn't too worried about it.
First-order evolved creatures have just acquired superpowers, and their methods are generally quite limited. In actual combat, it is already quite good if they are highly practical.
Since this giant bear has demonstrated this ability, which can be temporarily called "Earth Armor," it probably doesn't have any other capabilities.
Boom boom boom~!
Sure enough, after its entire body was covered in armor made of mud, the giant bear frantically swung its thickened forelimbs and clawed and smashed at Cang Nian!
However, already unable to keep up with Cangnian's speed, the giant bear was now even less likely to attack Cangnian after donning a thick layer of armor.
With a playful attitude, Cang Nian charged towards the giant bear, but instead of attacking it directly, he bypassed it from the side!
Bang~!
But then, the old man's four paws bounced twice on the tree trunk behind the giant bear, and his already leaping body rose even higher!
Using the tree trunk as cover, Cangnian, who had been keeping his distance from the giant bear, attacked directly from behind!
Pa~!
[Ding! Scratching skill proficiency +1! (5557/10000)]
With a muffled thud, the old man's claws landed on the back of the giant bear's head!
But as Cangnian had predicted, the earth armor covering the back of the giant bear's head shattered, revealing its fur.
However, the armor had already achieved its purpose of protecting it from damage. After taking Cangnian's attack, the giant bear only staggered forward a couple of steps before regaining its balance, clearly indicating that it had not been truly harmed.
Then, the giant bear turned around and looked at Cang Nian, its one eye filled with smugness.
It withstood the onslaught of time!
"Order! Break through the armor!"
At this moment, the fisherman watching from the sidelines let out a soft shout.
Then, a pale golden light flew swiftly toward Cang Nian!
"This guy... he's way too eager to show off..."
Hearing this voice, Cang Nian was somewhat speechless.
He wants a one-on-one fight!
However, since the fisherman has already imposed a law on himself, he should finish the battle quickly, cripple the giant bear, and then start feeding it evolution factors.
But just as Cangnian was thinking this, the pale golden light that flew out from the fisherman split in two.
One portion, according to the original target, landed on the two front paws of the old man.
But the other portion fell to the giant bear.
"Uh...did the buff go wrong?"
This left Cang Nian even more speechless.
Click, click~!
But the next second, Cangnian saw that the thick earth armor covering the giant bear began to crack inch by inch!
In just a few seconds, the earth armor that looked like it had considerable defensive capabilities turned into tiny fragments and completely fell off the giant bear's body.
"Huh? This armor-piercing weapon can be used like that?"
Upon seeing this, Cang Nian suddenly felt his brain couldn't keep up.
But if you really have to put it that way, it seems reasonable?
Armor penetration doesn't necessarily mean enchanting a weapon with sharpness.
Directly breaking through the enemy's armor is a more direct form of armor-piercing!
"Holy crap! You can use my [Law] like that?"
The fisherman, who was the one who started all of this, had no idea what was going on.
He originally felt that after evolving to the second tier, he had no new methods, only that the number of times he could command was doubled and that he could apply it to groups, which was a bit of a regret.
But now, the fact that this [law] can be used in this way suddenly opened his mind!
It turns out that my special ability can not only be used to buff allies, but also to debuff enemies!
This left the giant bear completely bewildered.
what happened?
Where is my armor?
Thinking of Cang Nian's swift attack, the unarmored giant bear felt completely insecure, so it once again activated its supernatural power, causing the soil on the ground to adhere to itself.
Strangely, the soil it was controlling, which was climbing up to its lower limbs, crumbled as soon as it covered its claws.
"Wow, it's a continuous status effect."
"Since that's the case, I won't stand on ceremony!"
Seeing this, Cangnian praised it in his heart, and then, under the giant bear's puzzled and frightened gaze, he moved closer to it!
The Fisherman's [Law] doesn't last long, so we can't waste it!
