“It was clearly conducted according to the rituals I taught in the ancient times, there shouldn’t be any problems. What’s going on?”
The Immortal Maiden was quick to admit her mistakes, identify the problem, and seek solutions to avoid making the same mistakes in the future.
“I see now. The barbarians I knew in the ancient times were the first generation, with pure bloodlines, they were the direct beneficiaries of my blessings!”
“After three hundred thousand years of inheritance, the proportion of my blessings in the bloodline of the ancient barbarians has diminished. By this generation, it’s already very low.”
“So, when my blessing ratio was high, it had a suppressing effect on the beasts. But when the ratio is low, the beasts would retaliate against me?”
“They’re bullies! How could the Kylin Immortal manage these beasts, they don’t give me any face at all!”
The more the Immortal Maiden thought about it, the angrier she became. She decided that once she found the Kylin Immortal, she would definitely teach him a lesson.
“Maiden, is there a way to make Man Gu’s ancient barbarian bloodline go back to sleep?” Lu Yang had anticipated the issue of activating the ancient barbarian bloodline and attracting hatred.
After all, it was normal for the Immortal Maiden to have enemies considering the outrageous things she did when she was alive.
It was only because the Immortal Maiden was still alive that she could suppress them.
Once the Immortal Maiden was gone, the enemies would come sniffing around.
The Immortal Maiden pondered, “I haven’t thought about this problem. Let me think… Shouting ‘Kylin Immortal is a bastard’… No, that might attract more hatred.”
“Ah, I got it! By having Man Gu continuously shout ‘Long live the Immortal Maiden’, it could further activate the bloodline, thereby suppressing the beasts!”
Lu Yang felt that this method was unreliable.
“Let’s fight. It’s just six Golden Elixir beasts, the four of us can handle it.” Lu Yang sighed, declared the golden finger ineffective, and began to formulate a battle plan.
“Meng Jingzhou and I will each deal with two Golden Elixir beasts, Tao Yaoye and Man Gu, you each deal with one. Yes, those two late-stage Golden Elixir beasts, I’ll leave them to you two.”
The four of them came to the dense forest to find opportunities for battle. Now they were just advancing their plan a bit, it wasn’t a big problem.
Tao Yaoye and Man Gu felt the pressure, they had never fought with Golden Elixir beasts before.
Man Gu felt the most pressure, he helplessly said, “Brother Lu, I have no objections to your battle plan, but I have a question.”
“What is it?”
“All six beasts seem to be targeting me, how do we fight?”
Lu Yang: “…The three of us will go first, leaving one for you.”
…
A patterned giant python, about ten meters long, was slithering quickly on the ground, aiming to entangle Man Gu.
It didn’t know Man Gu, but the source of its bloodline kept telling it that this man was dangerous and needed to be killed.
So, kill this man!
He’s just at the late stage of Foundation Establishment!
It tightly coiled around Man Gu, making it difficult for him to breathe, his face turning blue. Suddenly, the python felt lighter, and the Man Gu it was coiling around disappeared.
The python’s pupils shrank, realizing the problem.
It had unknowingly fallen into an illusion!
“Your opponent is me.”
A beautiful figure stood behind the python, holding a red paper umbrella, like a beauty in a painting.
The python turned its head abruptly, just about to attack Tao Yaoye, when one after another, beautiful figures appeared from behind Tao Yaoye, surrounding it.
It had fallen into another illusion!
…
Lu Yang drew his sword, step by step, he walked towards the two beasts. The tip of his sword scraped the ground, leaving a straight mark.
Suddenly, Lu Yang flicked upwards, the tip of his sword raised dust, blinding the two beasts.
The two beasts opened their divine senses, looking for Lu Yang.
But they couldn’t find Lu Yang at all, instead, they saw a colorful tiger, the tiger was holding a peerless sword in its mouth.
The first move of Lu’s Pictographic Fist – Tiger Fist!
The two beasts didn’t expect this, they were stunned.
In the moment they were stunned, the colorful tiger attacked with the sword in its mouth, aiming to cut off the necks of the two beasts!
The two beasts hurriedly dodged, the Qingfeng sword grazed their skin, cutting a wound on their proud fur, blood gushed out.
The two beasts were not easy to deal with either, they controlled the muscles around the wound, the muscles exerted force, directly blocking the wound!
At the Golden Elixir stage, they could mobilize every part of their body!
This was exactly why Lu Yang said that the Body Fusion tactic could only fill the gaps at the Golden Elixir stage.
The colorful tiger was already sharp-clawed, scratching a person could tear off both flesh and bone. Now with the sword in its mouth, its combat power was even higher!
Like a tiger with a sword!
The two beasts looked for the colorful tiger, but found nothing.
Where is it?
One of the beasts reacted first, staring at the ground, just about to spread its divine sense to check, when it saw the tiger emerge from the ground, a sword thrust out!
Directly took away one of the beast’s front legs!
The two beasts wanted to counterattack, but saw the tiger jump into the mud.
For Lu Yang, who had mastered the art of terrain contraction, this was not soil, but a pool!
……
Man Gu was up against an armored beast, as tall as a man, with scales like fish scales, but finer, resembling the scales of a pangolin.
The armored beast roared and charged at Man Gu.
Not to be outdone, Man Gu shouted, “Blessings of the Immortal Maiden,” and charged at the armored beast as well.
The armored beast had never seen such a brave human. A mere late-stage Foundation Establishment human dared to compete with it in physical strength?
Boom——
A collision occurred between the man and the beast, the sound was deafening.
Both sides retreated several steps, unable to stand firm, and finally stabilized their bodies by crashing into a large tree.
The armored beast was on high alert. It didn’t expect the opponent’s body to be so formidable, comparable to its own.
Man Gu was panting heavily. He was at a disadvantage in the previous collision, but as he kept shouting the name of the Immortal Maiden, he felt his body getting stronger.
“Blessings of the Immortal Maiden!”
He shouted loudly and charged at the armored beast again.
……
Like Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou was facing two mid-stage Golden Elixir beasts, a tiger, whose bloodline originated from the ancient demon Lu Wu, and a lion, whose bloodline originated from the ancient nine-headed lion. Both were difficult to deal with.
These two beasts were even more dangerous than the two beasts Lu Yang encountered.
The two beasts stared at Meng Jingzhou, their bloodline power urging them to kill Meng Jingzhou, this obstacle, and then kill Man Gu.
This was a hatred stemming from their bloodline, irreconcilable, unbreakable, only to be ended by death!
“Tsk, why is my luck so bad.”
Meng Jingzhou muttered, fumbling in his arms, causing the two beasts to tense up, concentrate their energy, mobilize all their strength, no matter what hidden weapon Meng Jingzhou pulled out, they could dodge it and counterattack.
This was the pride stemming from their ancient bloodline!
With a lightning-fast move, Meng Jingzhou threw an object shimmering with an unusual glow far away, without any intention of aiming at the two beasts.
The lion beast, whose vision was among the best in the Golden Elixir stage, saw the object clearly, turned around and ran, chasing after the object.
The tiger beast stood still, at a loss: “Human, what did you just throw?”
“A top-grade spirit stone.”
The tiger beast immediately turned around and chased after the lion beast.
It seemed that bloodline hatred wasn’t that important.
