CHAPTER 101 - C101

After knocking down the senior brother with a single punch, he didn't stop and dashed straight towards us. The three of us hurriedly got into position, while the master sat cross-legged on the ground to recover his energy.

However, the amount of Essence I had just expended was simply too intense, and it would be difficult to recover in a short period of time. I clenched my claws tightly, and senior apprentice sister took out her copper coin sword. Senior apprentice brother Juul grabbed at it with both of his hands, faintly feeling that the aura around him was changing, and that the burly man seemed to completely ignore us as he walked over like a gust of wind.

With his height of around two meters, the three of us were like weak children in front of him. Seeing him in front of me, I activated all of my fox blood, and in an instant, a strong aura squeezed out from me. My hair stood on end, my skin had turned a deep red from the extreme impact of the blood, and my entire body was emitting a strong killing intent.

The burly man stopped and said with slight surprise, Oh, not bad. Before he could do anything, I lunged forward, thrusting the staff straight into his throat. I used all my strength in this blow, trying to knock him down with a single blow, the staff almost piercing into him with a shriek, only to see him reach out his right hand unhurriedly, his thick palm blocking the staff. I quickly pulled back, bending over to swing it at his knee.

Dang! I felt as if I had hit steel, my knees were an extremely weak part of my body, I didn't think that he would have such a miraculous skill, could it be that his entire body was covered in this, I secretly breathed in, and the pair of Ghastly Bats in my hands flew up and down towards his face, the big man waved his arms left and right, neutralizing my attack. Just as the big man was focusing all of his attention on me, my senior sister stabbed his soft ribs.

The big fellow seemed to be hurt by my sword. He groaned and actually took a step back. He seemed to be afraid of the bronze sword. Senior Sister and I attacked from the left and right and made him continuously retreat.

There was no response when our weapons hit him, as if he were a machine made of steel, a mistake, I made up for it, and he grabbed my wrist, and I knew it was no second, and then I heard a smirk, and his other hand caught my neck, and his right hand grabbed my wrist and pulled hard, and there was a sharp pain in his shoulder, and did he want to pull my arm off? In this moment of life and death, the fox blood in my body was stimulated to the point where I had to fight him to the death. He exclaimed in surprise, then exerted even more force from his hands.

All of this happened in an instant. Before Senior Sister could react, a figure rushed over quickly. Senior Brother Juul raised his elbow and ferociously slammed it into his dantian. The burly man looked as if he was struck by lightning and released me with a muffled groan.

The man's dantian was the Qi Sea of the human body, and any expert would not be able to withstand a heavy blow to it. The man had clearly been heavily injured by Senior Brother Zue's attack, and was mumbling something as he glared hatefully at him.

My left hand was in severe pain as it drooped down. It seemed that it had been dislocated, and this burly man was really ruthless in his actions. If it wasn't for Senior Brother Juul distracting him, my arm would have definitely been torn off.

The big man stood up once again and took out a piece of talisman paper to place on his forehead. What did this mean? I took a closer look and sucked in a breath of cold air. The talisman stuck on his forehead was actually a Demon Summoning Talisman. What was he trying to do? Then he opened his arms and lifted his head and closed his eyes, and very quickly, all the black Qi from all directions was drawn towards him, all the way to his body, and there were countless streams of black Qi entering his body, his skin alternating between white and black, and the aura around him became even more terrifying, and the black Qi was advancing almost as fast as it could. He slowly retracted his body and opened his eyes, what kind of eyes were those, they were no longer emotionless and cold, but instead filled with a dense, sinister Qi, and devoid of humanity, and exuding an unconcealed ghostly aura, as if he had just crawled out from hell.

The first senior brother climbed to his feet and said in surprise, What kind of monster is this? Senior sister and senior brother Gür also walked over. The four of us stood side by side. The big fellow coldly laughed as he ran towards us.

His every step seemed to step on my heart, the powerful aura almost made us lose our lives, I almost had the illusion that the person in front of me was invincible, we had no way to fight back, this despair almost knocked me down, I took a deep breath and shook my head, the fox blood in my body was boiling, no matter if it was my body or my courage, I would be scared, if it wasn't for the fox blood, then I would have already been scared of myself.

He was like a spinning top between us, dealing with all four of us at the same time, but without any effort at all. On the contrary, the more we fought, the more we were shocked, and there was not a single weakness in his body, no matter where we hit him, his neck, his head, his dantian, his dantian, or his dantian, he seemed to be completely unharmed.

Countless amounts of black Qi emitted from his palm and sword. The Yang Qi of the bronze coin sword was extremely strong, the big man had absorbed too much Yin Qi, but the Yin Yang Energy that was present was extremely weak, and the copper money sword that was originally the bane of Yin Qi was now useless to him. Senior brother Juehe took this opportunity to jump up behind the big man and hacked his hands into the two ears of the big sized man, hitting a few large holes on the back of his head, but the big man did not react at all as if he was bitten by a mosquito.

The burly man pushed past his senior sister and extended his hand towards me. I took a step back, but that burly man didn't move an inch as he used his huge hand to cover the top of my head. I felt like I was being bound, and couldn't move an inch as I watched that burly man punch straight towards me.

Peng! I was punched on the head by the big sized man and was sent flying. When the big sized man's fist was about to reach my head, the fox blood ran all over my head, blocking a lot of the force from the punch. Even so, my head still hurt from the punch, my eyes were wide open, I almost vomited, and quickly closed my eyes.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind assaulted me, the wind was mixed with a heavy baleful aura, an unspeakably powerful cold energy suddenly appeared beside me, even the ghost aura on the big fellow was suppressed. I slowly opened my eyes, and discovered that the baleful aura was coming from the body of the first senior brother.

From the looks of it, he seemed to be in extreme pain. Behind him, there was a large shadow, and something seemed to be baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, as if it was about to charge out and tear everything in front of it apart. The aura around Senior Brother Ju was cold and powerful, and it was definitely not his own.

Everyone quieted down and looked towards Shixiong Juyi. They only saw that he was constantly saying something, his speed was extremely fast, and his voice was soft. His Master frowned and said, Evil God Talisman, how could this brat have such a thing? The Evil God talisman, what kind of talisman is that? Just listening to the name is filled with evil, then Master told me that this kind of talisman is considered a forbidden technique, and that I can use this kind of talisman to invite the power of the Evil God from the heavens to strengthen my body, and this kind of talisman is only said like that, it is not really in the sky that I see, but is a space that mortals cannot reach. This kind of talisman is a concentrated existence of negative energy, and adding this kind of energy onto my body, it has a great impact on my mind and body.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and glared at the burly man. His expression was completely different from before, and then the black shadows behind him suddenly separated into five parts, standing beside him. Immediately, ghost aura scattered in all directions, could it be the Five Devils? His Master laughed bitterly, This kid is simply messing around. After he had finished speaking, he got up and sat back down.

Senior brother Juul and senior sister also walked over. My master said, Juyi is now completely suppressed by the ghost aura, don't go near him. When the ghost aura on his body disappears, use your vitality to protect his heart veins, otherwise he will be completely replaced. By then, it will be too late to say anything.

The two of them clashed fiercely with each other, and in the next second, the two of them started fighting, and the only thing that could be seen was that there were ghost shadows everywhere, mixed with gusts of cold wind. It was as if there were countless evil spirits and ghosts fighting in this kind of battle, and their howls and screams were almost enough to break one's spirit, and Wang Tuzhang was so scared that he peed on his pants, as he lay on the ground trembling.

I asked my Master, What do we do now, Master? His Master smiled bitterly, If I could recover half of my power and set up a Dragon Repellent Formation, I might be able to control the two of them. But now, I can only watch. I asked eagerly, Is there no other way? Not to mention whether he can get close to the body, even if he can get close to it, if he can get close to it, it will definitely anger the evil spirits on his body. When the time comes, the evil ghost will retaliate, and from what I can see, that black burly man seems to be able to control the evil spirits on his body, if not, with so much ghost aura on his body, ordinary people would have already become crazy.

His Master pulled him back. Juul, if you want to go in now, you won't be facing the black-faced man alone, but rather the ghost aura on his body, which is becoming more and more dense in the middle of the battle. I'm afraid that he won't be able to differentiate between the two of us, and will disregard everything and attack you, and absolutely not let you go. I said, I'll go. The Master said, Neither of you are allowed to go. At this moment, a deep male voice sounded from behind him, I think it's better if I go.

CHAPTER 102 - C102

When I heard this voice, I immediately felt relieved. I turned around and saw Chang Tianba. His face was covered in dust, as if he had just come over.

Master Chang, you're here? Chang Tian Ba nodded his head lightly, Yesterday, when you were calling out to me, I had already sensed it, but the aura you gave me was very weak, as if something had obstructed it. My guess is that you must be in trouble, that's why you rushed here so late.

His Master said, It's fine even if we wait a little longer. Master Chang looked at his master and said, You're not lightly injured. His Master said, I'm thankful that I survived. This little injury is nothing.

Lord Chang looked at the fighting senior brother and the man and said, Is it alright if we cut off their Ghost Veins? Since you've come, then I'll have to trouble you to help me get rid of that black faced burly man. Remember, don't hold back. That person seems to have cultivated some evil technique and can no longer turn back. Master Chang said, Don't worry, I've never known what it means to hold back. With that, he ran towards his Senior Brother and Senior Brother who were engaged in a fierce battle.

As I looked at Master Chang's figure, I immediately relaxed, and the pain in my body immediately followed. At this moment, I realised that what I said wasn't light at all, especially my confused state. I guessed that if I went to the hospital for an examination, it would definitely be a concussion.

Lord Chang walked over to the side of the black bearded man and bellowed. His voice was so loud that it scared all of us, who were about ten meters away. The black faced man and the senior both stopped to look at Chang Tianba, but then he coldly said, Another helper has arrived. Take this opportunity, I'm in a hurry. The First Senior Brother did not speak as he closed his mouth and stared at Chang Tianba with a murderous look. Chang Tian Ba sized up the dark figure before saying, You have such a large amount of ghost aura on you. Chang Tianba was around 1.9 meters tall, and with his imposing build, he was already considered outstanding amongst the ordinary people. He still needed to raise his head to look at the black-faced man.

The black-faced man chuckled, without saying a word, he suddenly shot straight at Chang Tianba, his large hands falling from the sky like a large bowl towards Chang Tianba. Chang Tianba did not dodge, and was actually grabbed by the large man's large hands, the big man laughed, and with the strength of his hands, his large hands were like small basins, his five fingers were as thick as a mace, and with the countless amount of ghosts energy in his body, he could even crush a stone.

The black-faced man tried to crush Chang Tianba's head, but Chang Tianba remained calm while my heart raced against his throat. Suddenly, Chang Tianba's forefinger and middle finger pressed heavily onto the big hole on the black-faced man's right arm, while grabbing onto his wrist, the black-faced man laughed and placed his other hand on Chang Tianba's head. All of this happened in an instant, the black-faced man suddenly roared and broke free from Chang Tianba's control, retreating to cover his ears.

The black-faced man looked angrily behind him. It turned out that senior brother Juyi had gathered the power of the Five Devils to punch him in the ear. No matter how hard his body was, his brain was still extremely weak.

After succeeding in his attack, the first senior brother didn't stop, he continued to rush forward, continuing his barrage of attacks. The Evil God's upper body was supported by the Five Devils, and the first senior brother was a master of cultivation, so I was unable to see his movements, but at this moment, the fox blood had calmed down so I could barely see it, and every single kick or punch landed heavily on the black faced man's body, causing him to be forced to retreat several steps. Chang Tianba had also joined the battle, and very quickly, the number of wounds on the black faced man was increasing, and soon, the number of wounds on his body increased.

Although Chang Tianba looked no different from a human, his fingernails were very different from a human's. His nails were not pieced together, but grew on his fingers, and at this moment, he extended them out like ten sharp knives, with countless knife wounds on the black faced man's body that he left behind. Senior brother Ju's attacks were like hammers, but slowly, I discovered that the endless attacks of the two of them were unable to break through the black faced man's defenses.

The Evil God would lend him his strength while at the same time endlessly exhausting his body. To be able to endure for so long, aside from the fact that Senior Brother Ju's body was very strong and long term, it was also because of the Five Devils' support. However, the Five Devils had to repay Senior Brother Ju with their help, so no one could afford to take such a massive amount of energy.

The black faced burly man's eyes lit up as he dodged Chang Tianba's strike. His hands moved like lightning as he grabbed onto Senior Brother Zunyi's shoulders, raising his right leg, and ferociously slammed his knee into the chest of the latter. Immediately, the latter's eyes bulged out, and saliva dripped from his mouth. Following which, the black faced burly man's knees struck against the chest of the senior brother, each strike containing the force of a brick.

As soon as his fingers touched the black-faced man's body, the black-faced man grabbed onto Senior Brother Ju's collar and suddenly turned around. He threw Senior Brother Ju at Chang Tianba, and with the black-faced man's strength and the weight of Senior Brother Ju, the black-faced man smashed Chang Tianba onto the ground.

His Master suddenly stood up and linked her hands with a seal. She placed the Divine Flame Talisman next to her mouth and took a deep breath to release it, and suddenly a pillar of fire flew towards the man, but in the next second, that man broke away from the raging flames, and saw that most of his clothes were already burnt, and a small part of his body was still burning, revealing his dark muscles. As if he did not notice, he continued to rush forward, laughing coldly as he grabbed his Master's collar and threw him far away.

Then he ran over to me, and before I could react, a hand grabbed my belt and whipped the whip from my waist. I swung it at the big man's face, and with a 'pa' sound, the whip left a mark on his face. I turned around and saw that it was Senior Brother Juul.

The black faced burly man was obviously angered by the whip, he tore apart the torn clothes on his body, at this moment, the ground suddenly shook, Pei Jin Ge shouted, Mister Lu, the spirit vein has appeared.

The two huge stone pillars started to sink, causing the ground to tremble non-stop like an earthquake. Everyone present was so shocked by the scene that they forgot to fight. When the pillars completely sunk, there were two black holes left.

What is this? The black-faced man walked towards the two black holes, and we also walked towards them. We stood at the entrance of the cave and looked at the dark cave, it was as if it could swallow us whole. At the same time, waves of cold wind blew out from the cave, as if there were countless ghosts inside.

When Chang Tianba came over, his master rubbed his senior brother's chest and took out a pill from within, Fortunately, the ghost aura has not completely corroded my body, so I can temporarily protect my heart and veins. I'll return to take care of myself slowly. I saw that my Master's expression was also bad. Senior Sister asked, Master, how are you? His Master looked at the black hole and said, I'm fine, I just overused my inner force.

The ground trembled and disappeared. It seemed like the two stone pillars had completely stopped sinking. After a short period of peace, a bird cry suddenly came from the black hole.

Then, a little blue bird flew out from the black hole. It was the one that we had seen when we first entered, and now that it flew out, it was accompanied by a warm feeling, causing everyone around to feel comfortable. Pei Jinge shouted in surprise, Spiritual Pulse, Mister Lu, that's a Spiritual Pulse.

What? So the spirit vein we are bitterly looking for is this little bird? I think it's like master, master said, Spirit veins are formed by the concentration of spirit energy, they can change into anything. This bird is emitting an endless amount of spirit energy to nourish everything around it, it seems to be the spirit vein we're looking for. When the bird landed a few meters away from us, it tilted its head and looked at us. Wang Tuo Zhang ran over and said, Master Xu, you said this bird has spiritual veins. Let's grab it.

His Master lightly said, How could it be so easy to obtain a Spiritual Pulse? Captain Wang, please forgive me for being powerless. Seeing his Master like this, Wang Tuo Zhang turned around and took out a large net from his bag, excitedly rushing towards the Spirit Vein. I saw his clumsy appearance and wanted to laugh. Just one net and you want to grab the Spirit Vein? He saw Wang Tuo Zhang tiptoeing towards the bird, his small eyes emitting a greedy light. He stopped two meters away from the spirit vein. The spirit vein was tilting its head as it looked at him, seemingly not afraid of him, but interested in him.

Wang Tuozhang whispered, Be good and come with me. I guarantee that you will have something to eat and drink. Pei Jin Ge said to the black faced man, Mister Lu, hurry up and snatch the spirit vein. The black-faced man expressionlessly looked at Wang Pai Zhang not moving an inch. Wang Tuo Zhang drew closer, as he felt that he had grasped a bit too big, and threw the net towards the spirit vein. The spirit vein flapped its wings and flew away, then stopped not far away, staring at Wang Po Zhang.

Seeing that the spirit vein had stopped moving, Wang Tuo Zhang moved his fat body closer to the spirit vein. I have some doubts as to whether this bird really has a spirit vein or not. Wang Tuo Zhang was determined to grasp the spirit vein, and Master could not stand it any longer. He said to him, Captain Wang, the spirit vein is not something you can control. Don't waste any time. Wang Tuozhang ignored his Master and once again emptied his net. As expected, it was once again empty.

The bird seemed to be toying with Wang's seal, looking at him, looking at us, looking at Pei Jinge and the others, seemingly pondering something. It seemed that in this place, even if the bird wasn't a spirit vein, it would still be nourished day and night by the spirit vein, causing it to grow spirituality. Who would have thought that Wang Tuo Zhang would actually shake off his Master and throw the net at the bird as if he was possessed by a devil. However, this time, the net actually trapped the bird.

We all turned pale with fright. Wang Dazhang laughed out loud, You deserve it! I, Wang Zhong, received the spirit vein! Hahaha! As soon as he said that, the black-faced man ran towards him, as if he wanted to snatch the spirit vein. Wang Tuozhang was so scared that he ran back to us.

CHAPTER 103 - C103

His Master then pulled Wang Tuozhang behind him as he said to Pei Jin Ge, If we keep fighting like this, we will both be injured. Moreover, this place is too strange, and there might be some danger. Let's just give up.

Pei Jinge said to the dark faced man, Mr Lu, look... The dark faced man said, I'll let you off this time, but that doesn't mean I'll let you off in the future. Sooner or later, I will obtain the Spiritual Pulse. With that, he turned around and walked away, with Pei Jin Ge fawning behind him.

Seeing that the dark faced man had left, I let out a breath of relief. This person gave me too much pressure, and just because of his terrifying strength, I believe that he hasn't used his full strength yet, but he has already made us all fall over. Senior brother Ju is still in a coma from his injuries and the ghost aura has invaded us too much, and Chang Tianba is also injured.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Li Jiannan and the old man walked over. Wang Tuozhang arrogantly said, Well, let's consider this the successful completion of the mission. We can go home now. Li Jiannan looked at the bird and said, Captain, is this bird a spirit vein? What's its use? Or how can we prove that it's a spirit vein?

Wang Tuozhang was rendered speechless by the question. He was stunned for a long time before asking his Master, Master Xu, are you sure this is a spirit vein? His Master said, It should be. Wang Pushang said, Master Xu, you clearly said just now that this was a Spiritual Pulse. His Master said, I've also never seen a spiritual vein before. It's just that you don't feel it. Do you feel that this bird is very hot when you hold it with your hands? Wang Tuozhang said, Yes, it's really quite hot. My whole body is burning.

Li Jiannan shook her head and said, Master Xu, you must have confirmed that it was a spiritual vein because of this. This is too child's play. Birds are animals, so naturally they feel hot in your hands. His Master asked, Then what do you think the Spiritual Pulse should look like? Li Jiannan said, The spirit vein should be made of a type of metal or mineral, so it should be a rock. His Master said, "You've never come into contact with spirit veins before, how can you make such a conclusion? Many things can't be explained clearly with your knowledge, and I didn't say that there was only one.

Wang Tuozhang's eyes widened as he asked in surprise, Master Xu, do you mean that there are other spirit veins? His Master said, I only guessed so. Moreover, this place is really dangerous. Captain Wang, my martial nephew is already severely injured. If you don't treat him now, his life might be in danger. Wang Tuozhang thought for a moment and said, Alright, Master Xu, we'll listen to you. Since we've completed our mission, we'll leave immediately.

The group of us walked back along the path we came from. Along the way, Wang Tuo Zhang was constantly playing with the birds. I asked Master, Master, didn't you say that the Spiritual Pulse can't be moved? How could you allow Wang Tuo Zhang to take it away? His Master said, I also don't believe that a Spiritual Pulse would appear in the shape of an animal. Moreover, the Spiritual Pulse is naturally blessed by the heavens and the earth, so it can't be taken away that easily. This bird is probably just a Spiritual Object with an abundance of Spiritual Qi. I said, So you're fooling him?

His Master smiled and said, Against this kind of person, we can't use force. After all, he has a certain background, why not trick him? Moreover, I can't guarantee that this is a spiritual vein, he said so himself. I looked at the happy Wang Pushang and secretly gave him a thumbs up. Master, you're too tall. His Master said, How am I tall? I was just forced. Remember, people can never be too tough. Being tactful is beneficial for one's survival. If you can avoid offending others, then you won't have to offend others.

Even though several of his men had already died, and he had taken the initiative to sit down and chat with his master at night, it seemed that he was in a very good mood. The bird had already been put into his cage, and was eating compressed biscuits while drinking from bottled water, while Wang had a hint of drunkenness in his voice as he said to his master: "Master Xu, this really is all thanks to you. I can't forget you, and of course, there are a few of your top disciples, all talented people in the country.

His Master smiled. Captain Wang, you overestimated me. How could I have that kind of thought? Wang Tuozhang said, Don't call me Captain Wang. I'm a few years younger than you, so just call me Zhang Gong. I have the cheek to call you big brother. What do you think? I was in Senior Sister's tent, quite a distance away. I perked up my ears when I heard him say that, and my goosebumps were all raised. He actually knew his own limitations and knew that he was thick-skinned.

Unexpectedly, his Master said, Alright, here's the seal. Then I'll call you Little Brother. Wang Pozhang said, Big Brother, we'll be brothers from now on, and we'll be brothers through thick and thin. If anything happens in the future, just call me out and I'll die for sure. The two of them started calling each other 'big brother'.

This Wang Tuozhang is thick-skinned, and I can see that he may still have hope for Master in the future. Master is also tactful, and I know that he is very annoyed with this Wang Dazhang, so I can happily call him brother. I said in my heart that Master is at a level that I can barely reach in my entire life.

Senior Martial Sister was combing her hair when she saw me shiver and asked, Junior Martial Brother, what's wrong? Why are you still cold when it's so hot? I said, It's fine. I just heard something I shouldn't have heard. The Senior Sister curiously asked, What is that thing? Why can't I hear it? There isn't even a bird cry here. I smiled and told Senior Sister about the conversation I had just heard. Senior Sister covered her mouth and chuckled. Master is too interesting. I can't believe that I would be able to meet such a person. I said, Our master said that it's called smooth. The Senior Martial Sister curled her lips and said, Then you can learn. I can't learn it.

I asked, Senior Sister, we'll be going back tomorrow. How do you feel? The Senior Sister said, Not good, how could the mood be good after the death of the people who came together? I said, You mean the two from the archaeological team? The senior sister said, There are three of them. That's three lives! I remember, other than the two people who died from having their heads bitten off, there was also the missing Han Tieniu. Think about it, in this kind of place, if an ordinary person lost his life, he would have already died a long time ago.

I said, Ai, what a pity. He's quite a good person. The senior sister said, It's quite good? How did you know? I said, How passionate! We ate and drank together when we left and took the initiative to ride in our car to chat with you. At least, it was better than being in a good mood than being in Wang Dazhang so we took out our tent. We even said that we forgot yesterday and that we would forget everything we brought. I didn't believe it. The Senior Martial Sister said, Junior Martial Brother, do you know who Han Tieniu is? I said, Aren't they from the archaeological team? The Senior Sister then asked, Then who are the people in this archaeological team? I said, What else can an archaeological team do? They're all cultural people who study history. Senior Martial Sister smiled and patted my head. You really must learn from Master.

I asked, Then do you know who he is? The senior sister said, I don't know either, but I'm definitely not a cultured person. Let's talk about it tomorrow. I still wanted to continue asking, but the Senior Sister pushed me out of the room. Junior Brother, hurry up and sleep. I'm not sleepy yet. It's easy for girls to get old if they stay up late.

After coming out of Senior Sister's tent, I walked around the place. After completing the mission today, I was actually in a rather relaxed mood, this place looked good, but was filled with hidden dangers, so I went back to my own place to have a good time. Master and Wang Zhu Zhang were still talking.

Li Jiannan was also there. She was making a few numbers on a tree. I walked over and asked, What's the use of making this mark? We'll leave tomorrow. My sudden appearance scared her. After seeing that it was me, she calmed down and said, It's you. I want to come back here and do some research in the future. Also, look. Then, she opened her own small bag and showed me a few plants, I'm going to take these plants back to study. Although they are ordinary plants, they are clearly different from the plants outside. This might be the radiation from the spirit vein.

I wanted to tease her when I saw her serious expression. Then you should catch an animal to study. Isn't that more intuitive? She said, You're right, but most of the animals here are mutated by radiation. Our team doesn't have the ability to catch those dangerous animals. We hope that we can bring a weapon the next time we come. I said, Looks like you're interested in this place. Li Jiannan said, Indeed, I'm very excited to see that giant mutated beast for the first time. This is something all biologists dream of. It would be great if I could bring an animal back for research. I said, It's a pity the animals might not want to be caught.

Li Jiannan thought about it and said, You're right, so next time, it's fine as long as you can bring in a large scale weapon. I said, Comrade, the animals here didn't hurt you. Why do you hold a grudge? Why do you keep saying that you want to bring in large weapons? Li Jiannan said, You're wrong, I don't have the intention to kill them. I just want to do some scientific experiments. This is something that is meaningful to humans. I said, I know what you're talking about. Isn't it just killing them and getting some data? I also killed frogs when I was young and was told by my grandma that I was guilty. I don't think your way of doing things is any different from mine.

Li Jiannan said seriously, Scientific experiments are not just about killing. Science serves all of humanity. If your thoughts are still that far behind, then it would be too sad. I said, No matter what, killing people isn't right. Those little mice in your lab, no matter who you offend, you will be the one to bring disaster upon them. Sometimes, sacrifices are inevitable, said Li. I waved my hand. Alright, I can't beat you. Li Jiannan said, That's because your thinking was wrong.

Just as I finished speaking, I suddenly heard light footsteps nearby. Why would there be footsteps at this time? She quickly covered Li Jiannan's mouth and squatted down. She said in fear, What happened? I carefully followed the sound and walked two steps, but the sound disappeared. I took Li Jiannan with me and went back to my master, and before my master could even open her mouth, Wang Tuozhang patted his chest and said, Don't worry, old bro. I'll keep watch for you guys and you guys can sleep in peace.

CHAPTER 104 - C104

I looked at my master. How could this guy watch the night? My master saw my worry and said to Wang Tuozhang, Brother, you must be tired after being busy all day. Let me do the night watch.

However, Wang Duozhang said, No, you guys were the ones on night watch last night. My team leader can't just eat and not work. He'll have to be on the front lines forever. Hearing his words, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. You're overestimating yourself, aren't you? I didn't think that my Master would say, Alright then. Brother, tonight you will stand guard. I'll switch you to a little after one. Then he arranged for us all to rest in the tent.

I took advantage of the moment when no one was asking, How can he be on night watch? He can definitely fall asleep. His Master said, I know. You should wake up later. Maybe there will be trouble tonight. I nodded and looked around me. The silence was terrifyingly quiet. No one knew what kind of killing intent was hidden beneath the surface silence.

I went back to my own tent to lie down and closed my ears to meditate, not letting go of even the slightest bit of activity around me. Wang Tuozhang was humming around him, holding a bird cage in his hand, and looking at his elated look, he didn't even feel the slightest bit of danger, saying that this guy is really stupid, the more pleased I am with myself, the easier it is for me to relax my guard. Right now, Wang Tuozhang is like this.

Maybe it was because I was too tired and my master was still for a while, so I fell asleep while lying down and saw a blurry figure in front of me. It was a woman dressed in white, I couldn't tell her face from age, I could only see a rough outline, but that outline gave me a very familiar feeling, who is it, I chased after her, but my feet couldn't move at all, I wanted to lift them up and run, but my feet seemed stuck in the mud, I could only watch her go away, feeling anxious and sad, and actually woke up like this.

When I opened my eyes, it was dark outside. Only then did I realize that I was still inside the tent. I took a deep breath and wiped the sweat off my forehead.

I was thinking hard about who she was, but couldn't get an answer. At this moment, I suddenly heard a loud shout from outside, it was from senior sister, oh no, I rushed out, there were already several people standing near senior sister's tent, it was senior brother master and the rest. I ran over to see, senior sister's tent was torn apart and her sleeping bag was also damaged. She opened her eyes and saw that it was the grey haired monkey that I met in the cave. That grey haired monkey covered her mouth and did not let her make a sound as he dragged her out.

But there will always be a sound, Chang Tianba was the first to hear it, the grey monkey saw someone coming and left his senior sister, and ran, but Chang Tianba had already caught up with him, and upon hearing his words, my brain expanded in anger, that grey animal actually had such guts! I asked Chang Tianba in the direction he went, and went off with his demon claw, thinking to himself, I must teach this beast a lesson, I must beat it on its head, since master did not stop me, and senior brother Juul came with me.

Even though it was already dark, I could still see clearly, and Chang Tianba and the grey monkey had a special smell on them. Senior brother Jiu followed the smell, and very quickly, we saw Chang Tianba standing there with a grey monkey crouching on the other side. It was the monkey that Senior Sister and I met in the cave.

It turned out that the grey monkey was talking to Chang Tianba, but this time it did not talk to him. Instead, it opened its mouth and said to Chang Tianba, You're also a thing from the wilderness, what right do you have to interfere with me? Chang Tianba said, I'm different from you. You're an uncivilized scourge. The grey haired monkey asked, You and I are the same kind of people, why did you help them? What benefits did they give you? Chang Tianba said, You and I are not the same. You have our unique conditions here that make cultivation difficult. I can give you a way out, but you have to promise that you won't appear in front of me again.

The grey haired monkey said, Sure. In short, you will be leaving tomorrow. There will be other women coming in in the future. With that, he turned and ran into the darkness. Chang Tianba watched him leave before turning back.

The two of us didn't disturb him, and when he went back, we went around the place, but when we went back, we found that it was really bad, so it turns out that the grey monkey was trying to lure us away with the help of a tiger. After luring us out, a group of monsters that were half human and half monkey under his command rushed over and captured Li Jiannan.

When I asked him where Master and Senior Sister had gone, he just opened his mouth and couldn't say anything. I was so angry that I wanted to slap him twice in the face, but at this moment, Master and Senior Sister appeared supporting me, and I saw that Master and Senior Sister's bodies were covered in wounds, as if they had suffered a lot.

I hurried to help my Master, and asked him how he was, my Master panted and said he was fine, but at this moment, I saw the old man lying on the ground naked, twitching from time to time, and looking as if he was about to lose his life. I walked over to help him up, and since he was so old, how could he withstand the torture of these monsters? According to my Master, the sudden appearance of those monsters scared them, but soon, with my Master and Li Jiannan and my Senior Sister were not so lucky, and my Master and Senior Sister were able to take care of themselves.

Pity the old man and Li Jiannan, the monsters seemed to be more interested in the girl, and took away Li Jiannan, who was as scared as a wooden chicken. The old man also learned from Wang Tuozhang to hide in the tent with his butt stuck up, but who knew that those monsters didn't let him go, not only did they strip the old man, they even beat him up. Poor old man, he's so old!

It wasn't a good idea for such a big man to be naked, but his clothes and pants were torn to pieces from the inside out, so I had to put my own clothes and pants on him. It took a while for the old man to wake up and open his mouth to ask for water and give it to him to drink, and he had to take a deep breath before he opened his eyes and looked at us and started crying.

His Master said, Li Jiannan was captured, so we can't wait like this. Quickly go and save her. I said, But, Master, we only have these few people. How can we save them? The Senior Sister said, Don't worry, I have a way. As it turns out, Senior Sister saw that those monsters were interested in women, so she decided to attract the monsters' attention first.

No. I said, in order to save someone I had just met, even if I was in trouble, I didn't want my Senior Sister to take the risk. My Senior Sister said, This is the only way. I looked at my master, who thought for a moment and said, There seems to be no other way. How about this, I'll be together with Xizhen. The three of you will be in charge of saving her."

Just as I was about to say something, my Master interrupted me and said, It would harm Heaven and Earth if we do not save him. We cultivators value this even more. Stop talking and quickly leave. I sighed and prepared to go save him, but Chang Tianba and senior brother Ju E hurriedly caught up to me. Just as I was about to leave, Wang Dazhang came over and grabbed my master's leg, Big brother, you can't leave me behind. His Master said, We will come back immediately after saving you. You just wait here. Who knew that Wang Pushang said, Big Brother, Jiannan definitely won't be able to protect herself any longer. Let's quickly run! This isn't a place for people to stay!

Hearing his words made me want to laugh and be angry. Who the hell is this guy? He could even throw away the lives of his subordinates so easily. It was really a mystery what he was thinking. The Master sighed and pushed him away, Captain Wang, that is a human life. No matter what, I will save it. Wiping his tears, Wang Tuozhang said, I don't want to stay here. I'll go with you.

Master sighed and didn't say anything else. He just let Wang Tuo Zhang carry the old man and follow behind. Wang Tuo Zhang didn't waste any more words and just silently followed behind. We followed the footprints of those monsters and followed behind them.

The further we went, the darker the atmosphere became. I was secretly shocked, Chang Tianba and my master's faces were filled with nervousness, my master's eyebrows were knitted together, there was a cave in front of us, the cave entrance was very large, the inside was pitch black and there was only the sound of wind, the air here was heavy, it seemed like that group of monsters were here.

Reaching the cave entrance, his Master said, There's no other way. Let's bite the bullet and enter. With that, he looked at Chang Tianba and said, Bring Captain Wang to the entrance of the cave to receive us. I find it strange that my master would do this. Most of us are injured and extremely exhausted, but my master is extremely weak. Chang Tianba is the strongest person here, how could he possibly wait for us at the entrance of the cave?

Chang Tianba heard this and laughed, Master Xu thinks of me as an outsider. I am indeed not the same as you, but I promised Old Madam Hu that I will definitely protect Sun Hao. His Master looked at him deeply, but didn't say anything. Wang Tuozhang also said, I'm going too, I'm going too. Don't leave me behind. Master said no more and led the way. We hurried to keep up.

After walking for a while, the smell here became worse and worse, it was all the stinky smell of monsters and also the stench of urine. Senior sister frowned, I couldn't help but curse in my heart, that grey monkey knows how to speak human language, the place he lives in is actually so dirty, it is indeed different from a human's.

When we reached a corner, Master signaled us not to make any noise and squatted down. After squatting down, Master whistled lightly, and I was really surprised at what he was doing, only to see a figure swaying around the corner. That figure walked over, and before it could see us, Master's palm landed on its neck, and it softly fell onto the ground.

CHAPTER 105 - C105

It's even on sentry duty, just like a human. I fiddle with the monster lying on the ground. The black fur on its face is very dense, and its short and muscular body is also covered with black fur.

I squatted down to pick off the fur on its face and found that its facial features were very similar to a human's. I even suspected that it was a human covered in black fur, and when my master saw my surprised expression, he explained to me, "This guy has been here for who knows how many years, so it's normal for some mutations to occur. Furthermore, the Han TienNiu we heard in the cave is coming from them.

Just as I was about to go out, my Master stopped me and told us to hide in the shadows. He and his Senior Sister then tied up the Godly Armored Horse and firmly walked in. The sound inside first disappeared, then suddenly a series of sharp whistles came from inside, and my Master shouted, Quickly run. He and Senior Sister both turned around and ran, while the rest of us hid in the corner according to the plan. Master and Senior Sister came out like the wind, their speed was extremely fast, followed by a large group of monsters behind them.

The monsters seemed to be very excited as they all ran out. I did some calculations and almost all the monsters ran out. Only then did Chang Tianba and the others enter the cave while the scene inside made my scalp tingle.

There was a huge space surrounded by rows of neatly arranged skeletons, some grass on the ground, probably used by monsters to keep warm, the air was filled with an unpleasant odor, at this time, there was only one monster inside, it was the grey monkey, it was lying lazily on the ground, beside it laid a naked woman, it really was Li Jiayan, the blood below Li Jiannan, already passed out.

It first looked at us in panic, then quickly calmed down. Senior brother Cue walked over to pick Li Jiannan up and covered her with his coat, and I walked over to the grey monkey with my staff in my hand. At this moment, my heart was filled with rage, and anyone could tell what it had done to Li Jiannan.

Who knew that just as I walked over, the grey haired monkey said, You can't kill me. I coldly laughed and asked, Why? The grey haired monkey slowly said, If you kill me, you won't be able to get away when the other fierce beasts come back. Besides, you've already been infected by the smell of this place, so they definitely won't let you retreat peacefully.

Extremely powerful species? I seemed to have some impression of this term. After thinking for a while, I suddenly remembered that when I was young, there was a murder case in our village, and it was said that the murderer was the fierce one, but that the murderer was a human, and he killed his own parents. The grey haired monkey hesitated and said, "These strong ones are completely under my control, so whatever I say, they have to listen to me, I am their master, so, you better not touch me.

My master and senior sister had the Godly Armored Horse, and it would be very difficult for those vile creatures to keep up with my master and senior brother's speed. Once they are left far behind, they would come back, and at that time, we would not even have the chance to run.

With that, Chang Tianba walked up to the grey monkey and twisted its arm. The grey monkey squeaked and struggled with all its might as I went up to control it. It cried out, You cannot do this, I am the master here, they will kill you. Let me go. I swung the baton at its head and it didn't dare to make any more noise, and immediately there was a bulge on its head.

Holding the grey haired monkey in his arms, Wang Tuozhang nervously asked, Where is Master Xu? It seemed that his master was too important to him, as if he was reconstructing his parents.

After we went out, it was pitch-black outside. I stirred the fox's blood into my eyes, and only then did I see clearly that I was suddenly a little flustered, master and senior sister should be alright, the ground was a mess, we followed our footsteps and chased after them for a long time, but we could not find any trace of our master or monster.

Damn it, where did they run off to? I said flustered. The grey haired monkey said, You can still let me go if you don't … Before he could finish his sentence, Chang Tianba chuckled and said, Otherwise, even if we die, you won't be able to get away with it. After saying that, he stuck a finger into the grey monkey's neck with his sharp fingernail. The grey monkey screamed hoarsely in pain, You bastard, why are you helping these humans? Have you forgotten your own identity? Don't think that if you help them now, they will treat you as one of their own. They will always be against you.

Hearing this, Chang Tianba blanked out for a moment before rolling his finger on the grey haired monkey's neck, Cut the crap, these little tricks are useless to me. The grey monkey was in so much pain that it struggled for its life, but Chang Tianba's hand was like two iron pincers, not moving at all.

Following the footprints to a water source, I lifted my nose. There was the smell of my master and senior sister, as well as the stench of monsters. This was the place, but where were they? I wished I could see a monster, but there wasn't a sound of birds.

Along with the flapping of wings, a blue bird flew over. It was the bird that Wang Tuo Zhang had caught, and when the monsters had attacked, the bird's cage had also been broken. The bird had probably flown away at that time.

Spiritual Pulse, it's a Spiritual Pulse. Wang Tuozhang pointed excitedly at the bird, which landed on a small tree not far away from us. It tilted its head to look at us, and when the grey monkey saw the bird, it reacted very strongly, and it seemed to be very afraid of the bird. It closed its eyes, stopped struggling, and curled up into a ball, trembling non-stop.

Wang Tuo Zhang put the old man down and slowly walked over. Little bird, no, spirit vein, come here quickly. I'll take you out. At his words, the bird flapped its wings and flew away to the other side, and looking back at us, it kept shrieking, as if trying to lure us towards it. Wang Tuzhang ran up, as if it had discovered something, and most of the animals here were nourished by the spirit vein, not to mention that the bird itself could be the spirit vein. We looked and hurried to catch up, Senior Brother Juul carrying the old man, Chang Tianba dragging the grey monkey, but the grey monkey stayed behind and fought Chang Tianba with all his might, I anxiously grabbed the two hind legs of the grey monkey, and used them to lift it up like a stretcher.

I wondered what was going on with this beast, and how it got scared at times. It was rare for the bird to go and stop, and it seemed to be guiding us. After a while, we saw a shocking scene.

The few monsters in front, the ones mentioned by the grey monkey, were pushing a smaller monster down onto the ground and eating it. The scene was extremely bloody, and even I, who had always bragged about my mental fortitude, could not help but feel nauseous. I asked the grey monkey, Aren't they in a team? How do they kill each other? The grey monkey said, This is the nature of the fierce beasts, they are cruel and bloodthirsty, and they have a bad temper. If anything happens to make them angry, they will attack without a care for their own safety. I said, Why didn't they eat you? That's because I'm smart, said the grey monkey. I know where to find food, and I'll take them to find it. So they treat me like a director. I said, Is there anything to eat here? Li species likes to eat a kind of grass, said the grey monkey. I call this grass the Immortal Grass. They'll be very excited and happy to eat this grass, but they'll eat it all at once when they see this grass. Only I can find this grass. I said, Then you control these monsters and ask them where my master is. The grey monkey replied, It's not like they can't speak. How do you want me to ask?

I said, Impossible. They're the ones who lied to us in the cave. The grey haired monkey said, "They can only learn how to talk like you guys, they don't know what's the meaning of this. Although there's a spirit vein here, it doesn't mean that all the animals that live here can talk. With that, he looked at Chang Tianba. Chang Tianba did not say anything, but used all his strength to twist the grey monkey's arm, causing it to emit 'ka ka ka ka' sounds. The grey monkey let out a miserable shriek, and the monsters eating it turned its head to look at us.

Seeing the hideous faces of these monsters, as well as the bloodstains on their faces and mouths, and how terrifying the baring of their fangs and claws could be, the Asura Yaksha written in the ancient book was probably only mediocre.

After a few squeaks, the monsters stopped roaring and quietening down, but still continued to look at us with a scrutinizing gaze. I looked around me, and aside from the tranquil flowing water, there were no traces of anything else, I was simply going crazy. I pointed my claw at the nose of the grey haired monkey and said, Since you can't find my master or senior sister, what's the use of keeping you here? I'll kill you, you evil beast. As soon as his voice fell, the surface of the water rumbled and two figures jumped out. They were their Master and Senior Sister.

At this moment, Master's face was pale and his body was covered in water, so when I touched his body, I couldn't feel a trace of warmth. Those monsters saw that Senior Sister was very excited and kept howling, eager to give it a try, so I knew that they wouldn't dare to move recklessly, as long as the grey furred monkey was in our hands.

Just now, when Master and Senior Sister ran out, they were chased to the side of
