The giant beast turned its head away from the impact and looked towards the direction where the spear came from instead of the Gu Shaman at the fire pit.
There was an eagle in the sky over there.
The giant beast that was interrupted let out a dissatisfied roar in that direction.
But the eagle continued to roar in provocation. It didn't move closer or leave, it just hovered there.
The giant beast's throat let out a deep rumbling sound like thunder. It was angry. If it could, it wanted to tear the eagle to pieces, but it could not go up to the sky.
The sudden appearance of the spear stunned the Gu tribesmen. They didn't have spears like that in their tribe. If they did, they would've used it long ago. They had seen similar weapons on the Yanjiao tribesmen before. The Yanjiao tribesmen who came to their tribe a few days ago had green weapons like this.
Looking at the eagle in the sky, the Yanjiao tribesmen who came a few days ago also had eagles.
It's them? The Yanjiao tribesmen?
Didn't they leave? Why would they appear here?
The Gu tribesmen were only guessing. But the Gu shaman was sure that it was the Yanjiao tribesmen. He could feel the fire seed's energy from the Yanjiao tribesmen hiding in the forest. Although the aura of an outsider made them feel uneasy, fortunately, the other party seemed to be on their side and had helped them.
Whoosh!
Another spear pierced the giant beast's body, but because the giant beast was now prepared, it dodged and avoided the vital parts. The spear was originally aimed at its eyes, but it pierced its forehead, which was the hardest part of its head. This spear pierced the skin, but it did not bleed because it did not pierce deep enough.
The first spear's accuracy was affected by the flying rocks and debris, and the second spear also missed because of the giant beast's defense. But there was no doubt that these two consecutive spears surprised the giant beast and made it very irritable.
The skin was broken, the skin was broken!
This was the first time the beast had bled since it appeared.
The tribesmen who were too close to the beast didn't retreat in time. Now that the beast was distracted, they retreated without hesitation.
Bo Gu's arm was injured because he was too close to the beast. His legs were also fractured when the beast slammed its claws into the ground. He couldn't move freely. He wanted to retreat but the moment he moved, he couldn't control his body and fell backwards.
Before Bo Gu fell to the ground, a hand grabbed him by the back of his shirt and threw him far away.
Bo Gu was speechless. This was definitely not someone from the Gu tribe.
Bo Gu looked at the person who threw him and his eyes widened.
The Great Elder of Yanjiao?
The person who threw Bo Gu was Shao Xuan, but Shao Xuan didn't throw it blindly. There were Drumming tribesmen in that direction so they would naturally catch Bo Gu.
Boom!
The giant beast's powerful stomps made the already cracked ground even more messy, as if the open wounds were being unscrupulously pulled, making it look even more terrifying.
Shao Xuan had already leapt backwards to avoid the tremors from the ground even before the beast stomped on him. He used a rope from the Drumming tribe to turn his body in the air and moved towards another direction. He couldn't always stay in one place, he had to constantly change his position.
He was the one who threw the first spear. He couldn't retrieve the spear from the beast's body as it was too risky. The beast was already prepared and wouldn't let him get close to it. With its size, strength and attacks, one touch from it would be enough to make a person fall to the ground. Shao Xuan wasn't confident that he could dodge all of the beast's attacks so he wasn't in a hurry to retrieve his spear.
They didn't have any more bronze spears for them to stab. Luckily, they had already attracted the beast's attention and bought some time for the Gu tribesmen to catch their breath.
"Why are you all here?" Bo Gu asked the nearest Flaming Horn tribesman as he was led away by his tribesmen.
"Our Great Elder said that you might need our help. That's why we're here." Tuo stared at the giant beast without moving his eyes away.
"Why would your Great Elder think so?"
"Because he's the Great Elder."
Bo Gu didn't know how to continue asking. He couldn't guess what the Yanjiao tribesmen were thinking. He didn't know why they would appear here when they had already sailed downstream. However, they were grateful that the Yanjiao tribe was willing to help them.
The truth was that the Yanjiao tribesmen wanted to return and see what kind of beast the Gu tribesmen were fighting. They also wanted to understand the Gu tribe's fighting style and fighting style. After that, Shao Xuan made a knot and led the others to jump to the bow of the ship, turning back.
The shaman looked towards Shao Xuan's direction. He didn't have time to thank them so he made another decision.
"Fix it!"
The Gu tribesmen took a deep breath and started moving again. The battle wasn't over yet.
The giant beast had broken through many of the nets, but not all of them. There were still many nets wrapped around its body. However, those nets alone could not be used to their fullest potential. They had to connect all the nets together and fill in the gaps to completely subdue the giant beast.
Bo Gu's position was taken by someone else so he couldn't fight anymore. He could only watch from the sidelines.
"Do you need any help?" Tuo asked.
"No, thank you for your help. We'll be fine from now on," Bo Gu said.
The Yanjiao tribesmen appeared at the most crucial moment and gave the Gu tribesmen time to breathe. What they needed to do now was to follow the shaman's orders and fix the broken nets. But, would they really succeed?
Bo Gu was anxious. Although they had already set up the nets, they would be more skillful this time. This was the Gu tribesmen's talent and Bo Gu didn't doubt it. However, not to mention how many people were injured and their movements were restricted, just looking at the giant beast's current position, Bo Gu's heart couldn't be at ease.
It was too close, the beast had already entered the Gu tribe's territory. There wasn't much time left.
"You really don't need help?" Tuo asked again. Actually, they really wanted to help. It was rare to meet such a beast. Although they weren't confident in killing it, they could at least test it out and then run. In the forest, if they met a beast they couldn't defeat, they would do the same thing.
Bo Gu shook his head and said firmly, "You guys can't."
Although this made Tuo and the others unhappy, they had to admit that in this situation, they couldn't do anything. Firstly, the Gu tribe's fire seed's energy was too strong. The closer they got, the more they would be affected. They would have to use some of their energy to resist the fire seed's repulsion.
Facing such a dangerous beast, if they couldn't fight it with all their might, it was better to be careful. Years of hunting experience told them that if they were careless, they could lose their lives. Plus, the beast was attacking the Gu tribe, not the Yanjiao tribe. They didn't need to fight so hard. They could just help from the side.
Secondly, looking at the Gu tribesmen's actions, although there were many of them, it felt like they were one entity. If they acted rashly, not only would they not be able to help, they would also interfere with the Gu tribe's plan.
Thinking about this, Tuo and the others didn't move forward. They only helped a few injured Gu tribesmen out of the battlefield. They could only help so much. No one could blame the Yanjiao tribesmen. Compared to other tribes, the Yanjiao tribe was already considered 'kind'.
For now, they could just watch from the sidelines.
Wait, something's not right. Tuo shivered. Their leader, the Great Elder, didn't seem to have returned yet!
