"B * stard! B * stard! "
Zhang Laosi was naturally fierce. Under the effects of the poison, he grabbed the giant viper's head and stabbed the tip of his battle axe into the giant viper's eye!
"Pu!"
Blood splattered everywhere. This blow was enough to kill the giant viper. After killing the four guards, it finally collapsed.
However, Zhang Laosi was also lying on the ground. The muscles in his legs were beginning to collapse and his body was trembling. This snake venom was not your average kind of venom. It would take at most two minutes to take away his life.
"Heavens, this is bad …"
Lu You naturally knew that Zhang Laosi was the strongest person in the group. If he died, how would the group find the Heavenly Tome Forest?
"What do we do? Who knows the art of detoxification?!" Lu You yelled.
Zhang Laosi's body was trembling. He was on the verge of death. His eyes were hazy as he said, "Young Master … I can't do it anymore. Laosi can't accompany you to find the Heavenly Tome and restore the Lu Clan's prestige. Young Master, this subordinate is useless, I …"
At this moment, Lin Muyu, who was behind Lu You, took out a bottle of medicine and said, "Spread this medicine on the wound. Quickly, or else even the gods won't be able to save him."
"Yes!"
Lu You was extremely anxious. He took the bottle of antidote from Lin Muyu and poured it on Zhang Laosi's leg. In an instant, the snake venom turned into steam and dissipated in the blink of an eye. The antidote was worthy of being a level 10 medicine!
After a few more minutes, Zhang Laosi's wound actually became rosy. His physical strength and qi also recovered a little. He looked at his leg in disbelief, then looked at Lin Muyu and said, "This … what kind of medicine is this?"
"An antidote made by us hunters." Lin Muyu played it down.
Zhang Laosi struggled to stand up and immediately knelt on the ground, saying, "Young Master Lin Yan, this lowly one had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai. Thank you … thank you for saving my life …"
Lin Muyu nodded, "It's fine. Bandage it up and let's continue our journey."
"Yes!"
… …
Zhang Laosi dug out the 3,000-year-old viper's spiritual stone and handed it to Lu You before continuing on his journey.
Soon, Lin Muyu sensed the aura of the giant viper again. This time, there were three of them. These giant vipers were nearly ten meters long and were no different from pythons. Moreover, they were highly toxic and could not be dealt with by ordinary cultivators. Zhang Laosi and the others were also quite surprised. The lethal giant viper was only 'pretty strong' according to the hunter kid. Just how strong was this hunter kid?
"Rustle …"
The grass in front of them shook, and three giant vipers appeared in everyone's vision. Immediately, despair and pain appeared on Lu You's face. He said, "How could this be … So many giant vipers, what should we do?"
Zhang Laosi hurriedly raised his battle axe and said, "Brothers, prepare to fight with me and kill all these poisonous beasts!"
Lin Muyu frowned and said, "Why don't you … let me do it?"
Zhang Laosi was stunned, "Young Master Lin Yan, you …"
"Why don't we let Young Master Lin Yan give it a try …" Lu You nodded his head. Although it was immoral to say such words, Fourth Zhang and the others would definitely die if they went up against him. Why not let Lin Muyu give it a try and see how capable he was?
Qin Yin gritted her teeth and stared at the giant vipers in the distance. "One is 4,200 years old, one is 3,720 years old, and the last one is 5,430 years old. Brother, you have to be careful!"
"Don't worry."
Lin Muyu pulled out the Stars Sword with a 'dang' sound. The blade was shining brightly, and it was obvious that it was not an ordinary weapon. However, Lu You and the others did not care about this. In a life and death situation, everyone's attention was focused on the three deadly giant vipers.
Whoosh!
Lin Muyu leaped off her warhorse and dashed towards the Giant Viper like the wind. These Giant Vipers had been cultivating for many years and had long developed spirituality. Sensing the strength of the enemy in front of them, they opened their horrifying jaws when they were still a few meters away from Lin Muyu. The venom in their fangs spurted out in a "swoosh swoosh".
Whoosh!
Battle qi appeared on the blade of Lin Muyu's sword.
Zhang Laosi immediately exclaimed in shock, "Oh my god, it's battle qi! He's a Heavenly Realm powerhouse!"
Just as the giant vipers' venom was about to reach her, Lin Muyu suddenly let out a low roar. Layers of battle armor appeared around her and repelled the venom.
Zhang Laosi's face was still deathly pale, and he was dumbstruck. "Oh my god … He's a Heavenly King powerhouse! How is this possible?!"
Kacha!
The Stars Sword slashed horizontally, and a giant viper's head was quickly cut off. Lin Muyu's body spun, and a fiery red King's Battle Flame surged out of her left hand, directly burning the 4,200-year-old giant viper to ashes!
Zhang Laosi was about to faint. His mouth was dry, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Oh my god … Is that … Is that King's Battle Flame? He's actually a Holy King powerhouse … "
With a hissing sound, the 5,430-year-old giant viper opened its bloody mouth and pounced at Lin Muyu. It was already prepared to fight with its life on the line, but unfortunately, the disparity in strength was too great. Golden light flashed continuously around Lin Muyu, and before anyone could see clearly, the God Binding Chains and Seven Luminaries Immortal Gourd had already disintegrated into the Seven Luminaries Immortal Sword. The huge golden sword circled around the Stars Sword, and with a crack, it fell from the sky and directly split the giant viper into two!
"This … this can't be real …" Zhang Laosi stood there, dumbfounded. "A person can't be this strong. There's no way he can kill a 5,430-year-old spirit beast in one hit. This can't be real …"
… …
But everything was right in front of them. While Lu You, Zhang Laosi, and the others were dumbfounded, Qin Yin, the little sister of a hunter, was not surprised at all. She clapped her hands with a smile on her face and said, "Big Brother is so strong!"
Lin Muyu smiled and quickly took out three poisonous spirit stones and put them in her Qiankun Bag. This was a spirit beast that she had killed alone, so there was no need to share the spoils with others.
A few minutes later, Lu You, Zhang Laosi, and the others finally recovered from their shock. Lu You walked forward politely and cupped his fists. "I have eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai. Greetings, Lord Holy King …"
Zhang Laosi and the others also cupped their fists and even knelt down. "Greetings, Lord Holy King!"
On the mainland, the strong were respected, and this was evident.
Lin Muyu frowned. She had no idea how to deal with the situation in front of her. She could only raise her eyebrows and said, "Get up, all of you. There's no need to be so polite, Young Master Lu You."
Lu You slowly stood up and said, "Lord, you … you have the cultivation of a Holy King. I wonder which legendary person you are …"
"What Holy King realm?"
Lin Muyu feigned ignorance and said, "I only killed a few giant vipers. Don't call me Lord Holy King. I'm just a lowly guard of the Li Estate."
Lu You: "…"
As if sensing that Lin Muyu was unwilling to reveal her identity, Lu You naturally did not say anything more. He only smiled and said, "Then … then shall we continue on our way?"
"En, alright."
Mounting her horse again, they did not travel very far before Lin Muyu could already sense a powerful energy coming from the distance. If there were no accidents, the Heavenly Tome Monolith Forest was within fifty li. Thus, Lu You and the others had lost their ability to point the way. Moreover, their cultivations were not suitable for roaming in the White Leaves Forest. Not to mention those mysterious cultivators, even a random five or six thousand year old spirit beast would be enough to wipe out this group of people.
"Young Master Lu You, do you know how to inscribe a Heavenly Tome?" Lin Muyu asked.
"I'm currently learning. This lowly one's aptitude is lacking, so I have yet to succeed." Lu You said somewhat awkwardly, "Thus, I gathered many people and asked my father to volunteer, disregarding his opposition to come to the White Leaves Forest."
Saying this, Lu You took a deep breath and said, "Several hundred years ago, my ancestor was a Marquis. It was an honor, but in our generation, it declined with each passing day. If … if I, Lu You, could bring back a few stone tablets from the Heavenly Tome Monolith Forest, perhaps I could write a Human Book, a Spiritual Book, or even an Earthly Book, allowing my clan to rise again."
Lin Muyu said, "This time, many experts of the continent have found information about the Heavenly Tome Monolith Forest. Many people have come to the White Leaves Forest, and many of them are murderers. With your strength, it is impossible for you to survive here. Although my sister and I can protect you for a while, we cannot protect you forever. Thus, I suggest that Young Master Lu You return as soon as possible, lest you end up dying in a foreign land."
His words were merciless, completely disregarding the face of Lu You, Zhang Laosi, and the others.
In the past, Zhang Laosi would definitely have flown into a rage out of humiliation, but now, Zhang Laosi clearly knew that this young hunter was actually an expert on the level of the Holy King, so he naturally did not say anything more. The words of a true expert were the truth, worthy for the weak to learn. This had always been the principle since ancient times.
But who could have imagined that although Lu You's cultivation was mediocre, the determination in his eyes could not be shaken. He clenched his fists and said, "Young Master Lin Yan, although Lu You knows that his aptitude is mediocre, but … how can a man not struggle for his fate? If today, Lu You is a coward and returns without accomplishing anything, then I can only continue to be mediocre for the rest of my life. I'm not willing …"
Yes, the struggles of the weak were always looked down upon, but as long as they continued to struggle, there would be a day when the weak would become the strong!
Lin Muyu was somewhat moved. She nodded and said, "Fine then … since Young Master Lu You has already made up your mind, I won't say anything more. But … as long as we find the Heavenly Tome Monolith Forest and obtain one or two stone tablets, you should immediately return to Shanglu County. I don't want to see you and your people die here. After all, we know each other."
"Yes!"
Lu You clasped his hands and said, "As long as Young Master Lin Yan can help me obtain a stone tablet, you will be the benefactor of our Lu clan."
"Let's go. Let's not talk about this anymore. We'll talk about it after we find the Heavenly Tome Monolith Forest."
"Yes …"
… …
The group carefully searched through the forest. A few more giant vipers appeared, but they were all easily killed by Lin Muyu. Because her movements were too fast and her martial spirit was also too fast, even with the cultivation of Lu You, Zhang Laosi, and the others, they still could not tell what Lin Muyu's martial spirit was. The difference in strength was too great!
Just as the group circled around a lush grassland, the sound of hooves came from ahead. A group of people wearing metal armor and the insignia of the Yihe Kingdom appeared behind the forest!
Furthermore, they were familiar people. They were people from Northern Qi's Huan!
"Oh no …"
Zhang Laosi paused and said, "Young Master Lin Yan is the person who injured Northern Qi's Huan. He will definitely be recognized."
Lin Muyu lightly said, "No, I masked my face that day. They only know that I am a hunter. Don't make it public."
"Yes!"
