"A horde of beasts?" Leng Yue looked around and, finding no movement, realized that this must be Jiang Yuan's special talent.
"It happens to be located in a valley about ten miles away! Moreover, there is a sacred beast in it!" Jiang Yuan's expression was solemn.
Holy Spirit Beasts are undoubtedly a major challenge at present. They are at least at the sixth level when they appear, and compared to the weakness of humans, they have a great innate advantage.
As for the Holy Spirits, they are very similar to Earthlings in terms of appearance and power patterns. However, they were weakened to varying degrees when the Holy Spirits descended and needed time to recover.
Currently, the threat posed by the Holy Beast is far greater than that of the Holy Spirit.
"Since we can't find the Holy Spirit Pavilion anyway, why don't we go take a look? If we can get some information about the Holy Spirit Pavilion from the Holy Spirit Beast, we won't be running around here like headless flies!" Leng Yue suggested.
Jiang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go take a look!"
The two did not slow down, but ran all the way for eight miles. Only at Jiang Yuan's signal did they enter a stealthy state for the last mile.
"Have you sensed any other auras?" Leng Yue now had complete faith in Jiang Yuan's senses. People could recognize a woman by her scent, but this guy could smell a holy spirit from ten miles away.
“A few low-level monsters are nothing to fear!” Jiang Yuan said confidently.
Gradually, the herd of beasts that Jiang Yuan had mentioned appeared before the two of them.
A ten-meter-tall ape-man sits and dozes on a small hill not far away. Its enormous size makes the twenty or thirty-meter-high hill seem small.
At the bottom of the hillside was a group of goats munching on spiritual herbs, and the goats were the same breed as the ones Leng Yue had just killed.
"What are these holy beasts doing?" Leng Yue looked at a group of awakened goats grazing peacefully and felt a little strange. Shouldn't this kind of harmonious scene appear in the countryside in the past?
I was asleep while the sheep grazed; when the sheep were full, I was also full from sleep.
"The Holy Spirit Beast is herding livestock?" Jiang Yuan asked incredulously.
The few Holy Spirit Beasts I've encountered are all extremely brutal; they'd kill you at the slightest provocation. They certainly wouldn't be behaving as quietly as they are now, guarding the sheep.
The moment Leng Yue saw the Holy Spirit Beast, she knew she was no match for it. So, she wisely set up her heavy sniper rifle. The modified sniper rifle had become a deadly weapon. Just as a seventh-tier weapon can harm a seventh-tier creature, the derivative kinetic rifle was no different.
"who!"
The dozing Holy Spirit Beast suddenly opened its eyes, its stern gaze sweeping towards Jiang Yuan and Leng Yue's location.
"Damn it, Leng Yue's gaze has attracted my attention!" Jiang Yuan was shocked. The senses of a strong person are extremely sharp; a single word or even a glance can attract their attention.
Leng Yue acted decisively, loading and firing immediately. At such close range, aiming was almost unnecessary.
Thump! The bullet struck the ape-man holy spirit beast squarely in the forehead.
They thought a surprise attack would work, but clearly there was a huge gap between imagination and reality.
With a clang, the Holy Spirit Beast's large hand actually caught the bullet, and the sound of metal clashing together rang out. In the end, the bullet failed to inflict effective damage on the Holy Spirit Beast, but instead left a deep bloodstain on its palm.
"Sky Eye Detection!"
"Holy Spirit Beast, seventh-tier lord level, strength: 200, advanced talent: mind control."
"Mind control: It has the power to control the weak for varying periods of time, while also exerting a certain degree of psychological intimidation on the strong."
"Two hundred units of energy!"
Jiang Yuan's eyes widened. At this stage, two hundred units of power were undoubtedly a huge boss, capable of crushing a sixth-tier opponent.
The strongest attribute points for a sixth-tier character are only 128, a difference of over 70 points that is enough to make anyone hesitate.
Unable to obtain any information about the Holy Spirit Beast, Leng Yue, emboldened by ignorance, fired three shots at the Holy Spirit Beast's forehead.
At that very moment, the ape-like holy beast had already spotted the two of them. If it still couldn't find them when they were being attacked with its head pointed at it like that, then it wouldn't need its seventh-tier title and would be better off just being a piece of trash.
"Leng Yue, step back several hundred meters! If this guy touches you even slightly, you'll either be dead or crippled!" Jiang Yuan's expression was extremely serious. Two hundred points of strength was a formidable challenge for him, but he still wanted to give it a try.
"Humble lowly human!" The Holy Spirit Beast looked down at Jiang Yuan as he walked out.
Ten meters is incomparable to 1.8 meters, but Jiang Yuan is not afraid at all.
Leng Yue, a former soldier, seemed to have an almost absolute obedience to orders. Without a word, she retreated to a more secluded corner with her gun.
Moreover, this time she was even stricter with herself. She strived to aim at her target without arousing any suspicion. This is the highest level of a gunman: to kill without leaving a trace!
"Why do you know our language?" Jiang Yuan did not make the first move. Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory. The foreign Holy Spirit knew so much about them, while they knew nothing about the origin of the Holy Spirit.
"Want to know?" The ape-man sneered, his fist, as large as a giant hammer, slamming down. "Then defeat me first!"
"Windwalker!"
Jiang Yuan was about to run away, but his fighting spirit gave him another impulse.
"Leave? Impossible!"
Jiang Yuan grinned, revealing his white teeth, his surging fighting spirit threatening to tear his soul apart.
"Unyielding fighting spirit activated!"
"Only true warriors can transform their fighting spirit into strength and forge their physique with unyielding will."
"Unyielding Fighting Spirit: Once activated, the fighting spirit descends from the heavens, and the host cannot control the consumption of divine power and life force, fighting until there is no enemy left to fight."
The arrival of indomitable fighting spirit means that Jiang Yuan will not retreat. This is the characteristic of indomitable fighting spirit: as long as the enemy is not dead, the fighting spirit will not be broken.
"What a powerful punch! But I have one too!"
With his fingers and wrists activated, Jiang Yuan seemed to have become an ancient god, descending upon this place with an attitude of disdain for all living beings.
The ten-meter-tall ape-man seemed to be the object of contempt, while Jiang Yuan became an ancient god looking down on all living beings.
"So this is what the Ancient God Fist is like!"
"Ancient Fist!"
The fists, a hundred times weaker, collided. This was the first time in the vast South City that a single person had fought against a Holy Spirit Beast with over two hundred attribute points. This was a momentous milestone, signifying that humanity, which had been at the mercy of others, had begun to sound the horn of counterattack.
What does it mean to have a force exceeding 200? It means that a casual punch can have the force of tens of tons.
Jiang Yuan's arm had a slight crack, but the increased bodily activity from the Divine Wood Canon took effect at that moment, and the cracked bone was repaired in the blink of an eye.
He was injured, but the Holy Spirit Beast was in no better shape. It hadn't been able to kill the weak human in front of it with a single punch, and had instead been injured itself. This was a great disgrace to the Holy Spirit Clan.
"I will pulverize you and hang your head in front of the pavilion so that everyone will know the consequences of angering the Holy Spirit Clan!" The ape-man pounded his chest in fury.
"As expected, they are from the Holy Spirit Pavilion!"
Jiang Yuan felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders. Ning Yanlan's matter had always been a heavy burden on his mind, and he had to find her.
"Die!" the ape-man attacked.
"Break the shackles of blood!"
"Break the shackles of flesh!"
