104: Chapter 104 The Sensitive Qin Muyuan

"What is this jade light? How could it— Urg!"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Quickly activate the village-protecting formation!"

"It's opening... Damn his mother! Who embezzled the Spirit Stone of the village-protecting formation! Without Spirit Stones, the village-protecting formation can't be activated!"

"Lord Master! Go quickly and report to Lord Master!"

Within the manor, the shouts of countless Alchemists and Martial Cultivators rose and fell in succession.

However, under the control of Qin Muyuan's jade swords, once these shouts appeared, they quickly vanished.

"Gu gu gu!!"

At this moment, a soul-shaking roar of a gigantic beast suddenly echoed from within the manor.

Then, a Yao Beast standing fully ten meters tall, with two horns on its head and a pair of massive chicken claws under its feet, fiercely crashed out from a wall.

The body of this chicken-clawed Yao Beast was covered in a layer of yellow feathers, its eyes scarlet with extreme malice, its pupils sweeping across the jade swords flying above the firmament.

Immediately after, following the spiritual power fluctuations of the jade swords, it found Qin Muyuan's location.

"Gu gu gu!"

The chicken-clawed Yao Beast immediately strode forward with that pair of gigantic chicken claws resembling massive pillars, roaring aloud, and dashed furiously toward Qin Muyuan.

"A Middle Stage Yao Beast!" Sensing the aura of this chicken-clawed Yao Beast, Fang Yuan was startled.

She hadn't expected that Master Lingzhu would actually raise a Foundation Establishment Yao Beast!

Moreover, this Foundation Establishment Yao Beast actually had the cultivation of the Middle Stage!

You must know that most Foundation Establishment Yao Beasts had already activated the ancient Yao Bloodline within their bodies and condensed a Yao core.

A Yao Beast with a Yao core, regardless of intelligence or strength, was far more powerful than Qi Condensation Realm Yao Beasts.

Furthermore, because Yao Beasts possessed both powerful Physical Bodies and could cast immortal spells,

under the same Realm, Yao Beasts were stronger than ordinary Immortal Cultivators and Martial Cultivators!

Master Lingzhu was merely at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, how could he possibly afford to raise a Middle Stage Yao Beast?

Could it be...

"Dammit! This bastard colluded with the Hundred Yao Cave!"

Fang Yuan's expression changed drastically, and she said sternly.

"Hundred Yao Cave?"

While controlling the jade swords to entangle the chicken-clawed Yao Beast, Qin Muyuan, sensitive like a bratty girl facing (...), captured a keyword.

Based on his experience from slaughtering up to now, every place name represented a faction.

And every faction represented a quest point.

As a player, Qin Muyuan didn't quite like instances and quest points in canned games like Assassin's Creed: Netherworld.

Except for the quest points in this game.

When clearing quests in this game, one could encounter sensible NPCs like Xiao Chang.

And one could also encounter families with deep-seated grudges and filial piety like Fang Yuan's Family, which was truly too interesting.

Qin Muyuan planned to clear all the quest points in this game, and then recommend it to the old fellows in the group, acting as an elite gaming expert for once.

Therefore, upon catching the so-called "Hundred Yao Cave", Qin Muyuan immediately perked up his interest.

"Hundred Yao Cave is located outside the eastern border of Daliang Country, and it is a cave where Yao Beasts gather."

Seeing that Qin Muyuan was puzzled, Fang Yuan explained to him:

"Numerous Yao Beasts inhabit the cave; the weak ones haven't even stepped into the Early Stage of Qi Condensation, while the strong ones include the Five Yao Kings at the Perfection of Foundation Establishment, and even the Hundred Yao Cave Yao Emperor of an even stronger Realm."

"These Yao Beasts frequently harass the borders of Daliang Country, raiding towns and cities from time to time, using ordinary people as food. Their actions are extremely rampant!"

"If not for the treacherous terrain, coupled with the garrisoning of the Five Yao Kings and the Yao Emperor, the army of Daliang Country would have already wiped out the Hundred Yao!"

"Hundred Yao Cave and Daliang Country are sworn enemies for generations. Master Lingzhu actually dares to collude with them in secret; he truly deserves death!"

Fang Yuan gritted her teeth.

Although her Fang Family used clansmen as firewood for cultivation, they would also strike against the Yao Beasts of Hundred Yao Cave and would never do something like colluding with Yao Beasts!

This Master Lingzhu actually violated customary rules and colluded with Yao Beasts, disregarding the lives of countless immortal cultivation families and Mortals throughout Daliang Country. It was simply utterly hateful!

"The Five Yao Kings, and the Hundred Yao Cave Yao Emperor..."

Qin Muyuan secretly committed these two terms to memory.

Subsequently.

He withdrew his thoughts and looked at that chicken-clawed Yao Beast.

What wriggling hunger devoured was Yuheng at her strongest state.

That was Yuheng's state after expending one hundred and eighty years of lifespan, summoning twenty-seven jade swords, and reinforcing these jade swords once.

Therefore, Yuheng, who had just entered Foundation Establishment, could use her swords to cope with the attacks of this Middle Stage chicken-clawed Yao Beast.

But it was only coping, holding back the chicken-clawed Yao Beast.

This was not what Qin Muyuan expected.

Thus, Qin Muyuan dismounted from the back of the Wangcai Wolf, flicked his wrist, and immediately grasped the sea of corpses and blood in his hand.

On the long saber, layers of scarlet blood light and thunder light rapidly accumulated, exuding an aura that made even Fang Yuan feel the sharp edge pressing against her.

Boom!

Qin Muyuan tapped his toes, and the floor beneath his feet instantly exploded. His figure turned into a flashing streak of blood, swiftly charging toward the chicken-clawed Yao Beast.

"Gu gu gu——!"

Seeing Qin Muyuan fly in to kill, a trace of craftiness flashed through the chicken-clawed Yao Beast's massive pupils.

It abruptly abandoned the entanglement with the jade swords, raised its head, and lifted the pair of ferocious horns atop its head.

Its neck suddenly contracted, carrying the momentum of a thousand jun as it slammed fiercely toward Qin Muyuan!

The jade swords that it had previously feigned to parry now all slashed before the Yao Beast, yet they only sparked a series of crisp "ding-ding-dangling" sounds, as if striking metal and iron.

One could see that the layer of yellow feathers around the chicken-clawed Yao Beast was actually as hard as steel, bouncing away all the attacks of the jade swords.

——Previously, its appearance of feigning defense and seeming to be restrained by the jade swords was entirely a disguise!

This Yao Beast's feathers were exceptionally hard, not fearing the slashing of jade swords at all.

All its displays of weakness and blocking earlier were actually to lure Qin Muyuan into close quarters.

Then, taking the opportunity with that pair of terrifying horns, it would kill Qin Muyuan with a single blow!

"Careful!"

In the rear, seeing this scene, Fang Yuan let out an exclamation of surprise.

Qin Muyuan shared glory and loss with her now; she couldn't just watch helplessly as Qin Muyuan was ambushed and heavily injured by this chicken-clawed Yao Beast!

Fang Yuan quickly formed hand seals with both hands, her internal spiritual power surging out like a tidal wave, condensing a spell to rapidly strike toward the chicken-clawed Yao Beast.

Only.

Even though Fang Yuan cast the spell immediately upon realizing something was amiss, it was still too slow!

Before the spell could hit the chicken-clawed Yao Beast,

the chicken-clawed Yao Beast had already slammed that pair of sharp horns on its head, gleaming with a cold light, toward Qin Muyuan!

"Oh no..."

Clang!

Before the look of difficulty on Fang Yuan's face could even flash past, she heard a huge sound of metal and iron clashing suddenly explode!

This burst of metal-clashing sound stirred up sound waves, spreading far away like circles of sea waves.

"Oh?!"

Between Fang Yuan's slightly parting lips due to astonishment, the long saber in Qin Muyuan's hand collided violently with the hard horns of the chicken-clawed Yao Beast.

Under the impact, the chicken-clawed Yao Beast's head jerked upward violently, a trace of dizziness flashing through its eyes, and its massive claws staggered backward by a zhang, ultimately collapsing to the ground.

In this clash, Qin Muyuan actually gained the upper hand!

"Useless, useless, useless!" Qin Muyuan shouted imposingly.

Before his absolute strength, the chicken-clawed Yao Beast's tricks were nothing more than a mature man from Chengdu—a mere loli who could only be at the mercy of others!

The chicken-clawed Yao Beast fell into a brief dizziness, but Qin Muyuan didn't hesitate at all.

He tightly gripped the long saber, his waist spinning rapidly, the muscles of his right arm tensing as he condensed all his strength to slash out a decisive blade toward the Yao Beast.

Within this single blade, various forces obtained from devouring the Magic Treasure were fused together.

The mighty strength of the Elephant-Moving Force, the fierce and fierce strength of the Vajra Force, the piercing strength of the Nailing Force, the internal intrusion of the Penetrating Force, and the agility of the Spirit Snake Force.

Burst forth simultaneously!

Chi chi chi!

The blade edge slashed down upon the steel-like yellow feathers of the chicken-clawed Yao Beast.

"Gu——!"

Accompanying the painful roar of the Yao Beast, the yellow feathers shattered in response, and fresh blood and broken internal organs splattered out.

That massive body standing ten meters tall seemed to be thoroughly destroyed from within.

Under the ravaging of the forces, it instantly disintegrated and burst, turning into a puddle of bloody, mangled mud on the ground!
