A sharp roar like the friction between rocks could be heard. The forest seemed to be pushed outwards by an unintentional hand.
The Stone Arrowheads constantly clanged as they struck the Giant Beast's body, but the Giant Beast simply raised its front paw, completely ignoring the dense barrage of sharp stone arrowheads, and pushed down all the trees in its way, venting the anger in its body.
Bo Gu realised that the beast's paw wasn't complete. It looked a little deformed, as if it was cut by someone.
Yes, it was this paw. Thousands of years ago, when the ancestors of the Drumming tribe were hunting this beast, although it escaped, it left behind half of its paw. Now, this beast's paw had healed, but it couldn't grow back completely. Even if it grew back a little, it didn't have the shape of a beast's paw. It looked very strange. This paw, compared to a normal paw, was weaker in terms of agility and attack.
Perhaps the giant beast also realized why its paw was like this. It roared angrily again and chased after the people who were hiding in the forest and shooting arrows everywhere.
Bo Gu and the others continued to shoot while luring the beast towards the tribe.
If it was any other beast, they would chase it from the back. But for this beast, they couldn't stay at the back. They could only continue to lure it from the front. Here, they were the weaker party. The beast was the stronger party!
Kacha! Kacha! Kacha! A "road" was opened up in the forest. Broken wood chips and broken leaves scattered. Trees were lifted far away, leaving only some pits on the ground after being lifted up by the roots or remnants of tree trunks that were still in place after being cut in half.
This beast wasn't this big a thousand years ago. It should be about the same size as the small fearsome beasts they met a few days ago. The hunting methods their ancestors used back then were naturally different from now.
So, the beast wasn't familiar with the hunting methods the Drumming tribe used now. Even if it was a thousand years ago, it couldn't remember it clearly. Moreover, the probing of the Drumming tribe had ended. It believed that the Drumming tribe would not pose too much of a threat. Even if it still remembered the grudge from a thousand years ago, even if there was still a trace of fear in the depths of its heart, but now, all the fear had turned into hatred and anger. Plus, it was angered by the witch. It couldn't think of anything else now.
Kill! That was the only thought in its mind.
In front, they could already see the Drumming tribe's house.
"Trap!"
A voice rang in Bo Gu and the others' minds.
It was time for the next step.
Sou sou sou!
Ropes appeared from all directions. Up, down, front, back, left, right, all six directions!
At the same time, a net suddenly sprung up from under the giant beast's feet. The dust and leaves covering the net were blown away. The moment the giant beast lifted its foot, the net closed and directly bound the beast's claw.
The giant beast that was charging forward was suddenly pulled back by the sudden force, but it was only for a moment. The beast swung its claws vigorously, lifting up a forest not far away. The rope from the net was tied to the trees.
The warriors of the Drumming tribe who were hiding in the forest were exposed as the trees were torn down. They had no choice but to retreat and set up a net in a hurry.
The net just now was only one of the nets that had been set up. There were more behind it.
One net wouldn't be able to achieve much. They needed more nets. This giant beast had already fallen into their net area. They had to keep circling the ropes around it. The ropes formed a net, and the nets formed a net. One net after another connected to the other!
If Shao Xuan was here, he would definitely see that this was similar to the chain lasso he set up in the trap. It was just more complicated.
If the chain lasso was like changing from one dimension to two dimensions, from beginner to intermediate complexity, then the net was like changing from two dimensions to three dimensions, from intermediate to advanced complexity!
If a person wanted to create a net and ensure its success, as long as they mastered the technique and had enough time and energy, it wasn't too difficult. After all, only one's consciousness was in charge of the operation. But now, the people of the Drumming tribe, the hundred or so people in charge of the net, had successfully completed the huge net without any commands. Even if there were conflicts between them, they were now cooperating very well. This was a temporary tacit understanding, which was impossible for other tribes to achieve.
In addition, look at the weaved nets. The trees were easily torn apart, but most of the nets were still connected. The ropes were rarely broken. The net wrapped around the beast's feet was faintly red. It wasn't very thick, but it was unusually strong, even if the beast was strong.
This was the net after the net ceremony. It was also the net that the Drumming tribe used to deal with difficult targets. A thousand years ago, the ancestors of the Drumming tribe often used this net. But in the past thousand years, the Drumming tribe rarely used it. After all, the fearsome beasts were slowly disappearing, and their daily targets were just some ferocious beasts, there was no need to use this net anymore.
Now, after a thousand years, the Drumming tribe was using this net again.
More and more nets wrapped around the beast's feet, and more and more ropes were wrapped around the beast's body. The ropes weren't obvious compared to the beast's size, but they were still increasing. With every step the beast took, more ropes would wrap around it.
These troublesome nets and the smell of the ropes reminded it of bad memories from a long time ago. When it thought of its half-chopped claw, it couldn't help but become more irritable.
The Gu shaman looked at the giant beast and shouted again, "Capture!"
Bo Gu attacked from the back of the beast, his totemic power infused into his arms. The veins on his arms bulged like dragons as he swung his sword down. The sword emitted a suffocating cold light as it landed heavily on the beast's neck.
If it was in the past, the beast's head would've been chopped off easily. Even the fearsome beasts from a few days ago couldn't survive this strike.
Such a large beast should've been injured by this strike, right?
However, when the blade collided with the beast, a sharp screeching sound could be heard. Bo Gu felt his entire arm go numb from the impact. He looked at the area where the blade had touched, only a few scratches could be seen. There was no trace of blood.
This strike didn't even cut through the beast's skin!
Not only that, Bo Gu could feel that the sword in his hand couldn't be used anymore. There were already cracks on the sword's body.
Bo Gu was shocked when he heard this. The other Drumming tribesmen who saw this were also shocked. Most of their stone tools were above average, and some were even made from high quality stones. But this scene told them that their stone tools were useless.
Was this a scam?!
But no matter what, even though they knew their stone tools weren't effective against the beast, they still had to continue with their plan.
At the same time, in the Flaming River, two boats that were supposed to sail downstream were now heading upstream.
