Chapter 1306 - Encounter with Darkness Seeds

Chapter 1306 Encounter with Darkness Seeds

Hearing the roar, the five-man team galloped on the path. When they saw a gigantic beast the size of a small mountain, they couldn’t help but cheer.

“It’s a cub!”

Zhang Xiang was so excited that he was trembling

This time around, the goddess of luck must have blessed him for sure.

Although the size of this thorn beast was very big, its horn was white-colored, the best proof that it was a cub. It also indicated that its combat strength was comparatively weaker.

“This is just a freebie!” Zhang Hua pulled out his blade. “Everyone, don’t remain in a daze. Let’s start working!”

Just when everyone was preparing to rush forward, Lu Guojing stopped them.

“Wait!”

Lu Guojing, who had a cautious nature, wanted to first check the surroundings so they wouldn’t have their kill stolen by someone else. As he glanced around, he soon discovered that there was a young man seated atop a rock nearby.

“There’s someone here!”

As Luo Guojing gave the warning, Zhang Xiang and Chen Jian immediately aimed their bows at that young man. “How handsome!”

Li Luoran’s heart violently thumped.

A guy around twenty plus of age could be seen sitting atop the rock and was staring into the distance. His eyes were like constellations in the galaxy, deep and pure.

The contours of his face looked as though they were sharpened with axes. The lines were clearly defined as well. When he remained immobile, he resembled a statue.

Indeed, there was a little bird that flew over and stopped on his palm, waddling around while completely not feeling any fear at all.

“Oi, we discovered this thorn beast first. Please leave!”

Zhang Xiang shouted loudly. Li Luoran cast a glance at her comrade. From the looks of things, it was evident that the young man came first. However, such a cub was like a freebie, so no one would let it get away from them.

“We don’t speak of logic when living in the Darkness Continent. We only speak with our fists!”

Zhang Xiang knew that Li Luoran had a righteous heart. Hence, he explained to prevent his image from being affected.

“I know!”

Li Luoran’s lips twitched.

“Bro, tell us what you want!”

Lu Guojing spoke.

“Brother Lu!”

Chen Jian frowned and felt that he was too polite.

“I think that this fellow is an expert. Let’s not be in a hurry to offend him and check out the situation first!”

Lu Guojing felt that this young man was either an expert or a retard.

“Do what you want.”

Sun Mo casually spoke.

“Since this brother said this, we will thank you first and won’t be polite anymore. Later on, if you want a share of the spoils, you have no more right to them. I, Old Lu, don’t have anything else but a tough life!”

Lu Guojing chose peaceful measures before using force and concluded his speech with a ruthless statement.

However, Sun Mo didn’t care about him and continued peering into the distance. The scenery here was very beautiful. Sadly, his students weren’t here with him.

Ai!

How lonely!

It had been two years since Sun Mo arrived on the Darkness Continent, but he had no harvest at all. This was especially so for this half a year. His determination to search was dwindling, and it felt like self-exile now.

He would drink water from brooks when he was thirsty and eat wild fruits when he was hungry. When he was tired, he would use the ground as his bed and the sky as his blanket, staring up at the skies in a daze.

The current Sun Mo would sit if he came by a place with beautiful scenery and would wait here for several days.

Below him, the combat started.

The thorn beast’s cries were very noisy. “Oi, if you guys don’t want to die, quickly give up and leave!”

Sun Mo warned.

However, the five-man team didn’t reply.

“Luoran, you should retain 50% of your strength and pay attention to that young man. If he makes any movements, immediately kill him!”

Lu Guojing instructed in a low voice.

“I’m not joking. With the combat strength you guys displayed, you won’t be able to kill this thorn beast.”

Sun Mo was prepared to be a good person to accumulate good luck.

“What a joke. Adult thorn beasts might be troublesome, but cubs like this are freebies!”

Zhang Xiang’s temper flared and he shot back. “Even if you regret allowing us to attack it, it’s too late now. The prey this daddy sets his eyes on will definitely not be given up to another person.”

No one could persuade a ghost looking for death!

Hearing this, Sun Mo shrugged and continued to stare at the scenery.

Very soon, the combat below turned ferocious as screams and cries rang out unceasingly.

Bang!

The thorn beast swept out with its tail at Zheng Hua. As a result, he felt like being slammed by a high-speed tank, and he was knocked back, coughing up blood.

This hadn’t ended yet. The thorn beast’s horn suddenly emitted a bolt of lightning that forked in the air, extending forward.

Rumble!

Lu Guojing, Li Luoran, and Zhang Xiang managed to evade. But Chen Jian was not so lucky. He was hit by the lightning bolt and his body was instantly charred black. He fainted on the spot. “Little Jian!”

Everyone was badly shocked. At this moment, Li Luoran wanted to save him, but it was too late.

Swish

The thorn beast bit down on Chen Jian and tossed its head about, tearing Chen Jian into pieces as blood and broken pieces of flesh splattered everywhere on the ground.

Roar!

The thorn beast howled and shot out another lightning bolt that shot toward Li Luoran.

“It’s over!”

Seeing the white-colored bolt shooting toward her, Li Luoran was stunned by fear and rendered immobile.

Rumble

Lightning flashed. “Luoran!”

Everyone screamed but they soon discovered that Li Luoran didn’t die. That young man who was sitting atop the rock and looking at the scenery suddenly appeared tens of meters away while carrying Li Luoran.

“So strong!”

Lu Guojing was shocked.

“From your tone, you guys should have killed plenty of thorn beasts, right? In that case, why are you guys unable to tell that this is a mutant?”

Sun Mo didn’t understand.

“Mutant?”

Lu Guojing was shocked. No wonder this cub was so powerful.

The laws of the Darkness Continent were bizarre and unfathomable. Hence, there was a greater chance of mutated beasts appearing. This type of lifeform wasn’t only powerful, but they would usually be born with an innate talent as well.

For example, ordinary thorn beasts could emit lightning, but they could only shoot one bolt every time that shot in a straight direction instead of a lightning web.

This was the greatest reason why Chen Jian died.

“Just leave!”

Sun Mo put Li Luoran down. “I’m not leaving!” Li Luoran cried in a very sorrowful manner and lunged toward the thorn beast again. “I’m going to take revenge for Little Jian!”

“Luoran, stop!”

Lu Guojing already rushed to Li Ruolan’s side and held her back. After that, he nodded to Sun Mo. “Thanks for your help. This mutated beast is yours!”

Lu Guojing’s voice was filled with some resentment. He felt that the other party had seen through the fact that this cub was a mutated beast, and this was why he intentionally allowed them to attack first to deplete the beast’s strength.

“Stranger, don’t assume the worst about people!”

Sun Mo had no interest in killing such things. However, Lu Guojing’s gaze made him very unhappy. Hence, an instant later, he appeared above the thorn beast’s head.

Heavenly Sword Art, Hibernation!

Swish

As Sun Mo’s wooden blade slashed down, a golden light erupted forth, slicing toward the thorn beast’s head.

Roar!

The thorn beast cried out. Due to its animalistic instinct, it basically didn’t even dare to retaliate. It was like meeting an apex predator, and it immediately turned and fled.

Meanwhile, Sun Mo floated in the air and continued to slash out.

Sword Dragon Ridding the Armor!

Swish-Swish- Swish

The blade flashed and the thorn beast suffered a thousand cuts. In the end, the rock-like armor on its body directly shattered and was sliced off.

Lu Guojing and the other two were dumbfounded with amazement from watching.

(This… Isn’t he a little too strong?)

After that, Sun Mo casually unleashed an ultimate skill.

A Sword Breaking the Sky! Azure Sky Rend!

Swish

The thorn beast was dissected cleanly into two neat pieces.

As a result, a bloody mist suffused the area, making the surroundings smell somewhat pungent.

At this moment, the corpse of the thorn beast, which was the size of a mountain, fell onto the ground with a rumble, causing clouds of dust to fly around.

Lu Guojing and the other two had shocked looks on their faces Three attacks!

That man only used three attacks to finish a mutant beast that had almost annihilated his entire team.

“H…he’s flying?”

Li Luoran screamed in shock because she discovered that after Sun Mo finished killing the beast, he didn’t land on the ground. He simply floated back up to the top of the rock and sat down once more to continue viewing the scenery.

His carefree and graceful demeanor was like that of an immortal.

Li Luoran had a look of grief on her face and couldn’t help but speak out, “We have misunderstood him!”

Lu Guojing bitterly smiled.

Yeah, if they knew that this guy was a major character that had no interest in the thorn beast, they would have said something much more pleasant to request for his help.

Now, not only had they offended this person, but they even had one dead and one injured in their team.

At this moment, Li Luoran already ran toward Zheng Hua to treat his injuries.

After some basic treatment using medical herbs and bandages, the three of them started discussing

“What should we do with its corpse?”

Zhang Xiang glanced at the thorn beast’s corpse as he gulped down a mouthful of saliva.

“That is the battle spoils of others!”

Li Luoran reminded him.

“But he doesn’t want it!” Zhang Xiang sniffed. “In that case, it should be no problem if I pick up the scraps, right?” “Best not to stir up extra trouble. In any case, we already have enough hearts of darkness!”

Lu Guojing sighed.

Chen Jian was dead and Zheng Hua was heavily injured, so they would definitely be unable to head to the Constellation Academy anymore Hence, it was no longer important whether they had this heart of darkness or not.

??.

“But that’s a mutated species’ heart of darkness!”

Zhang Xiang didn’t want to miss it. If this item was sold for money, it would cost quite a bit.

“If you are not afraid of being killed, just go and pick up the corpse then!”

Li Luoran rolled her eyes. Finally, after the three of them discussed for half a day, Li Luoran took the heart she had dug out from the corpse and went toward the rock Sun Mo was sitting on. “Big brother, I dug out this heart of darkness for you!”

ess

Li Luoran laughed and did her best to reveal the most beautiful smile.

However, Sun Mo ignored her.

Li Luoran felt somewhat depressed. She was the most beautiful girl in her village that everyone wanted to woo. However, this man didn’t even cast a glance at her.

But after thinking of the might displayed from his three attacks, she suddenly felt that it was only normal for her to be disregarded.

Li Luoran had run into a ‘wall’. However, she didn’t leave and actually chose to sit down here instead.

One day!

Two days!

Five days passed. For the three meals per day, Li Luoran would cook something extra and deliver it to Sun Mo. “Is this fellow a madman?”

Zhang Xiang was speechless. (It is just the scenery, what’s so nice to look at? He actually could stay there for so long?)

“Luoran, there are only a few days left before the Constellation Academy’s exam begins. If we don’t leave now, we won’t be able to arrive on time!”

Lu Guojing reminded her.

“It’s useless, he doesn’t care for your looks!”

Zhang Xiang’s lips twitched.

He knew that Li Luoran wanted to use the beauty trap so she could learn the sword techniques of this young man, and this made him feel very unhappy. After all, he was secretly in love with her.

“Ai, let us leave tomorrow morning!”

Li Luoran was very disappointed. If she could learn his sword art and teach it to everyone when she returned to the village, the combat strength of her village would be greatly increased. Regardless of them hunting or defending against enemies, the success rate would be enhanced, and everyone would be able to enjoy better days.

“Mn!” Lu Guojing rose. “I’m going to check on Bro Hua!”

Zheng Hua’s situation wasn’t very good, but Li Luoran and the others were helpless as well. The medical skill level in the Darkness Continent was very backward. Hence, when people here were injured, they would only take some herbs to paste it on their wound and simply continue enduring until they got better.

“Speaking of which, do you guys think that guy has a solution to save him?”

Li Luoran’s eyes suddenly brightened. She then turned and ran toward the huge rock. “I’m going to beg him for help!”
