The rock cave was too narrow, so Lü Zhong decided against going inside.
Otherwise, if his sneak attack failed, he would be the one in danger, and the potential reward wasn't worth the risk.
He might as well toss a few rounds of the Fire Rain Technique in first and blast the beast until it was seeing stars.
Aided by his Concealing Breath and Concealing Trace Techniques, he crept to the mouth of the cave. After a sly chuckle, he pulled out a dozen Cleaning Talismans.
Using the Talisman Summoning Technique, the twelve Cleaning Talismans shot forth like sharp arrows.
This was no wasted effort. Like common wild boars, the Steel-maned Boar had a habit of rolling in mud and rubbing against tree trunks to scratch itself. As a result, its body was coated in a hard shell formed from a mixture of mud and tree resin.
Over time, this hard shell built up layer by layer, becoming tough enough to repel blades and swords.
