Snow was flying everywhere, and the wind was like a knife scraping on the skin. The temperature in the north of the Dragon Forest was completely different from that in the south. Four days passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Muyu and the others had been in the Dragon Forest for half a month, but they still hadn't found the Golden-scaled Beast.
"Master."
Wei Chou took a breath and warmed his palms. He looked up at the falling snow and said, "At this rate, the snow will seal the mountain in a week at most. If we can't find the Golden-scaled Beast, I'm afraid we can only spend the winter in the Dragon Forest."
"Yes."
Lin Muyu continued to ride forward and didn't respond to Wei Chou's words. Instead, she turned around and asked, "Is there enough fodder for the horses?"
An imperial guard said respectfully, "There's enough for three days."
Lin Muyu frowned and said, "Continue the march."
…
It was almost dusk, and the snow still didn't stop. The team slowly entered a gourd-shaped valley. Wei Chou couldn't help but smile, "Master, your Martial Soul is the green gourd. This is the Gourd Valley on the map. Maybe it's our blessed land!"
Lin Muyu nodded and smiled. The Spiritual Pulse Technique continued to extend to its maximum range. Not long after entering the valley, there was indeed a trace of energy pulsation, and this time the range of the fluctuation was very strong. Lin Muyu immediately raised her palm and said, "Be careful, there's a spirit beast approaching quickly. It's very strong. Be on guard!"
Everyone turned over and dismounted, holding their swords and sabers. Many people pulled their longbows with trembling hands. Maybe it was because the weather was too cold, but the bow made a squeaking sound when it was pulled taut, as if it would break at any time.
"It's coming!" Wei Chou's face turned cold.
It was when night fell. There was a beast roar from the other side of the valley, followed by a golden light soaring into the sky. This made Wei Chou couldn't help but show a happy expression, "Master, it's the Golden-scaled Beast!"
The Golden-scaled Beast was an exotic beast that could devour and release light energy. It was also one of the rare light-type spirit beasts.
Lin Muyu remained seated on her warhorse with her sword in hand. She did not move at all. As far as her eyes could see, a ferocious beast covered in golden scales trod through the snow. Its head was like that of a ferocious tiger, but its body was like that of a cheetah. It let out a low growl as its blood-red eyes stared fixedly at Lin Muyu and the others. Four golden and eight silver lines flashed on its head.
"Damn it …"
Wei Chou couldn't help but curse, "It's actually a 4800 year old Golden Scaled Beast. My lord, are we going to kill it?"
"I'm afraid we have no choice but to kill them."
Lin Muyu dismounted and said, "This Golden-scaled Beast is here to hunt. Even if we don't kill it, it will attack us. Don't be polite, shoot!"
"Yes!"
A group of imperial guards shot arrows one after another. The arrows of the imperial guards could be said to be fast, accurate, and ruthless. Nearly half of the arrows hit the body of the Golden-scaled Beast. However, the golden light flickered endlessly. The skin of the Golden-scaled Beast seemed to have some kind of shield, blocking all the arrows.
"Can't shoot through, what should we do?" Wei Chou was stunned.
"Continue to shoot." Lin Muyu said lightly, "The light energy condensed shield needs to consume energy. Continue to shoot arrows will consume its energy. Don't stop until it takes the initiative to pounce."
"Yes!"
The arrows continued. Lin Muyu also touched her waist, and the Magic Noise Blade was already in her hand. She quickly threw it out, and the Magic Noise Blade returned to attack the Golden-scaled Beast. Not only that, Lin Muyu opened her palm, and lightning flashed. She controlled the Liaoyuan Sword with the Thunder Sword to attack.
"Bang!"
When the Magic Noise Blade was agitated, the Golden-scaled Beast finally roared and suddenly rushed over. It raised its claws, which condensed into a golden light. The light spiritual power was endless, and with a "whoosh", a light energy claw attack was launched!
Lin Muyu hurriedly took a few steps in front of Wei Chou and others. She opened her palm, and the Black Tortoise Shell and Dragon Scale Wall were quickly blessed. The wall of the gourd was also opened to the maximum, pushing the snow on the ground forward. With a loud noise, it actually resisted the attack of the Golden-scaled Beast. However, from the strength of the attack, the Golden-scaled Beast did consume most of its strength in defense.
"Roar!"
The Golden-scaled Beast opened its bloody mouth and pounced on the culprit. Its mouth spewed out a scorching and stinky breath. Its throat began to swell, and rays of golden light penetrated through its fur. The light energy in its mouth became more and more intense, as if it was about to spit out a mouthful of light explosive energy. Lin Muyu naturally wouldn't let it succeed. In a flash, she arrived below the Golden-scaled Beast. She crossed her right arm, and blood-colored energy lingered.
[Chaos of All Lives]!
"Peng!"
A heavy punch landed on the lower jaw of the Golden-scaled Beast, abruptly killing its light attack. At the same time, he spun his body and grabbed the Burning Prairie Sword. The Real Dragon Primary Fire was concentrated and lingered around the long sword. With the fastest speed, the sword pierced through the throat of the Golden-scaled Beast with a "puff" sound. The Golden-scaled Beast fell down softly amidst the screams.
Wei Chou was stunned. Obviously, he didn't think that Lin Muyu would be able to deal with a 4800 year old Golden-scaled Beast so quickly. The rest of the imperial guards also looked at the new centurion, with unspeakable awe and joy in their eyes.
"Okay, take out the spirit stones." Lin Muyu said lightly.
"Yes!"
Wei Chou took out a dagger, walked forward and lifted the head of the Golden-scaled Beast, dug out the spirit stones, and said with a smile, "Madam, the fur of the Golden-scaled Beast is a good material. How about … we spend a little time and peel off the fur of this Golden-scaled Beast?"
"Yes."
Lin Muyu nodded, and said, "Hurry up, the second Golden-scaled Beast will be here soon."
"Ah? Why … "Wei Chou was shocked.
Lin Muyu smiled slightly, and said, "Because the living habit of the Golden-scaled Beast is to live with a male and a female. The one in front of us is a female beast. If it forages for too long and doesn't return, the male beast will naturally follow its scent and find it. The male beast must be very strong, so you have to be quick. Don't let the male beast see you peel off the skin of the female beast. That would be too inhumane."
Wei Chou couldn't help but laugh, "Yes, Madam … I will speed up."
So, Wei Chou peeled off the skin, and another imperial guard sat on the side and began to refine the beast spirit of the 4800 year old Golden-scaled Beast. Although he practiced the law of fire, and the Golden-scaled Beast practiced the law of light, he was not picky about food. The spirit of a beast with a long lifespan was very rare, and it was even more difficult to find one that matched the attribute. So even such a beast spirit made him ecstatic.
… …
Lin Muyu then ordered to set up camp. There was snow everywhere in the Gourd Valley, so they could only sweep away the snow and set up tents on the slightly dry grass. The soldiers of the Spirit Fire Department found some dead wood and set up seven or eight bonfires. They took out the bear meat from the horses and began to boil the meat soup.
Not long after, the smell of meat overflowed.
"Gugu …"
Lin Muyu's stomach growled, and his internal organs were about to rebel, but he knew that there might be no time to eat. In fact, this was indeed the case. Not long after, the pulse of the Spirit Pulse Technique in the distance became more and more intense, and a force that was almost about to crush him was quickly approaching. He quickly pulled out the blade and whispered, "It's coming, come with me!"
Everyone was solemn. They dropped the meat soup, blankets, and other things, picked up their spears, swords, and other things, and followed Lin Muyu to the side of the hillside.
"Sha sha …"
Stepping on the snow and scuttling up the hillside, Lin Muyu brought everyone to the hillside, only revealing their eyes to observe the situation in the distance.
After a few minutes, a low roar echoed in the cold wind, and a golden light shot through the curtain of snow. An even larger Golden-scaled Beast appeared on the snowy ground. There were a total of six golden veined patterns and two silver veined patterns on its head. It was a 6200 year old spirit beast! Perhaps because of its huge size, its palms sank deep into the snow. Its eyes were a little dim, and it looked at the corpse of the Mother Beast in the distance, and let out a mournful howl.
Lin Muyu frowned, and didn't say anything. At this moment, he actually felt that he was committing a crime. Wild beasts also had spirituality, and he killed the Mother Beast just like that. Was it a little cruel?
Wei Chou didn't have such a kind heart. He squinted his eyes and said, "Milord, when the sacrifice for the Mother Beast is halfway through, we kill it?"
"No."
Lin Muyu raised her hand to stop him, and said, "Let me go first, don't be impulsive. This is a 6200 year old Golden-scaled Beast, and its strength is far greater than the ones we met before. Don't act rashly. This Golden-scaled Beast's light energy can kill you in an instant. I don't want anyone to die on their first mission after becoming an Eagle Guard."
Wei Chou nodded, "Then be careful, Milord!"
"En, don't worry!"
…
At this moment, the Mother Beast let out another mournful howl. After sniffing the corpse of the Mother Beast, it immediately began to growl in a low voice. Its steel-needle-like beard trembled up and down, but it cast its gaze on the warhorse at the edge of the tent not far away. In the next moment, it had already pounced over with a low growl, clearly intending to kill the warhorse to vent its anger.
"Whoosh!"
The Burning Prairie Sword, wrapped in purple lightning, pierced through the curtain of snow and went straight to the neck of the Golden-scaled Beast.
With a "bang", the golden light scattered, and only a part of the Golden-scaled Beast's light energy shield was blasted off. Lin Muyu jumped up directly from the hillside, grabbed the rebounded Burning Prairie Sword with both hands in the air, and a strong demonic power poured into the long sword. She slashed the sword down in the air. This attack combined the Seven Luminaries Xuan Energy with the sword technique!
Two Luminaries Demonic Dance!
The blade fell directly on the forehead of the Golden-scaled Beast, but a strong recoil quickly spread out, and he was shaken away with the sword.
"It can actually condense Battle Armor! Milord, be careful … "Wei Chou shouted anxiously on the hillside.
Lin Muyu slid far away on the snow, and looked at it from a distance. Sure enough, the skin of this Golden-scaled Beast was wrapped in a faint white luster, like armor protecting it. Was this the Battle Armor that Wei Chou mentioned? Transforming Qi into Battle Armor, this was the ability of the Second Heaven of the Heaven Realm. How could this Golden-scaled Beast also condense Battle Armor?
