100: Three-headed dog vs. one-horned Shura tribe

This matter was concluded.

Lin Mu lost any intention of staying to reminisce.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Lin Mu's figure flickered and disappeared from his original spot.

Lin Mu did not linger after returning to the Heavenly Dao Sect; instead, he immediately set off for Yan Country with the Three-Headed Dog and Long Yuan.

At this moment, Lin Mu sat calmly and at ease on the Three-Headed Dog's back.

His lazy demeanor made it seem as if he could fall asleep at any moment.

The Three-Headed Dog, however, seemed somewhat excited.

It looked at the scorched earth everywhere they passed and couldn't help but say,

"What's wrong with these foreign races? They set fires everywhere just to travel."

Lin Mu was already accustomed to the Three-Headed Dog's chatter, so he didn't respond.

Meanwhile, Long Yuan, stroking his beard, slowly spoke.

"This is a unique custom of the Asura Clan."

"Every time they engage in external warfare, a large number of Asura mages will clear the way."

"These mages will release a type of blue flame along the way, and this flame is extremely bizarre."

"Anything it touches will be incinerated to ashes."

The Three-Headed Dog said, "This habit of setting fires everywhere isn't good, Boss, don't you agree?"

Lin Mu's eyes flashed with a sharp glint upon hearing this, then he said in a deep voice, "It is indeed a bad habit; it's time to make them change this problem."

Long Yuan chuckled and said, "These flames aren't set randomly. In their Asura Clan, fire represents light."

"The reason they set fires along the way is to symbolize a bright future for their expedition, implying a victorious start."

Lin Mu scoffed at the words, "Just self-deception. Three-Headed Dog, hurry up! If we don't reach Yan Country before dark, we'll be eating dog meat for dinner."

The Three-Headed Dog had been dormant for a hundred years and was already itching for action.

Hearing Lin Mu's urging, it accelerated its pace without hesitation.

Finally, at dusk, three figures stopped at the border of Yan Country.

Yan Country is located in the eastern part of Yanshan Kingdom, and its territory is more than double the size of Yanshan Kingdom.

In terms of overall strength, Yan Country was the strongest force among the human race.

However, at this moment, Yan Country was almost completely overrun.

The first city Lin Mu and his companions arrived at was named Cai City.

This was originally a super city with over a million inhabitants, but now it resembled a ghost realm.

Only a few faint figures could be seen at the city gate.

Before Lin Mu and the others could even approach the city gate, they saw two figures walking towards them.

As the figures drew closer, Lin Mu also got a clear look at their appearance.

Of the two approaching figures, one was a Giant Race man, easily seven or eight meters tall.

The other was like a normal human.

Even his appearance was not much different from a human.

Only the horn protruding from his forehead revealed that he was not human.

From his appearance, Lin Mu had no difficulty guessing that this should be an Asura Clan member.

As Lin Mu observed the two figures, the Unicorn Man (Asura Man) had already walked in front of Lin Mu and his companions.

He looked at Lin Mu and the others with arrogant eyes.

He spoke in a condescending tone, "You lowly humans, instead of trying to escape, you actually dare to come here to die."

This Unicorn Man (Asura Man) was of the Asura Clan's royal family and possessed the strength of the Venerable Realm.

He was responsible for guarding Cai City with the Giant Race this time.

In his eyes, the spiritual energy auras of Lin Mu and Long Yuan were very weak.

Only the Three-Headed Dog vaguely made him feel a hint of threat.

However, he didn't pay it much mind.

The Asura Clan is a race born for battle.

They could almost always defeat opponents of the same realm.

What's more, he had a Giant Race Venerable beside him, whose strength was similar to his own.

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than the Three-Headed Dog's fiery temper immediately flared up.

"What kind of thing are you? Neither human nor ghost, daring to be presumptuous in front of this great master (arrogant self-reference)."

The Unicorn Man (Asura Man) hadn't expected that a mere human mount would dare to mock his noble Asura royal family.

He had originally intended to play around with Lin Mu and his companions for a bit before sending them on their way.

But now, he had changed his mind.

He was going to burn these people to ashes.

He casually took out a black glass orb, then gently caressed it with his hand.

As he caressed it,

the black glass orb suddenly spewed out black flames, attacking Lin Mu and his companions.

Upon seeing this, the Three-Headed Dog smiled contemptuously.

"Playing with fire? this great master (arrogant self-reference) is the ancestor of playing with fire."

One of its heads forcefully exhaled.

A similarly pitch-black flame surged out.

The two black flames exploded as soon as they made contact.

The terrifying shockwave sent the surrounding dirt flying.

After the dirt settled,

the Three-Headed Dog stood safely in its original spot.

In contrast, the Unicorn Man (Asura Man) on the other side looked extremely disheveled.

All of his clothes had been burned away.

Only a few strips of cloth covered his private parts.

His originally somewhat fair face was now completely blackened.

The Three-Headed Dog looked at this scene and mocked, "Oh dear, what happened? Did you play with fire and burn yourself?"

The Unicorn Man (Asura Man) was already somewhat annoyed by his failed attack.

Upon hearing the Three-Headed Dog's blatant mockery, he became even more enraged.

His spiritual energy surged wildly, and a flame even more terrifying than before erupted from his body.

This time, the flame condensed into a long spear, stabbing directly towards the Three-Headed Dog.

Upon seeing this, the Three-Headed Dog still showed no sign of panic.

Another of its heads opened its mouth wide.

A black lightning bolt shot out.

This black lightning bolt was also transformed into a long spear by it.

The two long spears collided again.

However, this time there was no violent impact.

The black lightning, like a broken bamboo, tore through the black flame, then continued its unstoppable charge towards the Unicorn Man (Asura Man).

The Unicorn Man (Asura Man) was stunned in place upon seeing this.

His divine fire, which he relied upon, was actually shattered so easily by a single blow.

Just as the lightning was about to strike the Unicorn Man (Asura Man),

a sturdy earthen wall suddenly appeared in front of the Unicorn Man (Asura Man), blocking the attack for him.

Although the earthen wall only blocked once before shattering with a bang,

it also offset most of the black lightning's power.

At this moment, the Unicorn Man (Asura Man) also reacted.

He casually conjured a black shield in front of him, blocking the aftermath of the black lightning.

The Unicorn Man (Asura Man) cast a grateful look at the Giant Race member beside him.

Then he became somewhat fearful.

If it weren't for the Giant Race's help, even if he hadn't died just now, he would certainly have been severely injured.

Thinking of this, his gaze towards the Three-Headed Dog became solemn.

At this moment, the Giant Race member beside him spoke.

"You rest for a bit; let me deal with this little fellow."

With that, his massive figure slowly approached the Three-Headed Dog.

The Three-Headed Dog was not to be outdone.

It shook its body, signaling Lin Mu to move away.

After Lin Mu moved from its back,

its body, which was originally less than a zhang tall, instantly grew to over three zhang tall.

This was the Three-Headed Dog's normal body size.

Feeling the continuous surge of energy from its body, the Three-Headed Dog let out an excited howl.

That mighty aura even made the approaching Giant Race member freeze in place.
