Chapter 271: Discovery

A narrow path…
Old Huang glanced at the female spider beneath him. Just what kind of narrow path are we passing through?
Although the female spider was big in size, its actual height didn’t even reach 30 feet. It was only around 25 feet tall.
On a plain, this height might’ve been considered high, but inside a dense indigenous forest like this, it was no longer considered tall. Trees towering over dozens of feet were everywhere.
If one didn’t observe carefully, it would be impossible to discover the female spider walking through the forest.
After ten minutes, Gao Peng heard the sound of Flamy.
“Gao Peng, I saw them. So many, so many…”
“So many what?”
“So many mountains!”
Gao Peng was speechless. *What’s so rare about mountains? We’re already walking on a mountain, and we’re surrounded by them!”
In a place like Yuzhou, seeing no mountains was a rare thing.
“No, it’s many, many Mountain Spirits!”
Gao Peng’s heart tightened. If there were many Mountain Spirits in front of them, then it was highly likely that people from the Golden Hands were already nearby.
“Flamy, don’t expose the fact that you’re a familiar. Immediately, right now, act as if you’re a monster in the wild that sensed a lot of Mountain Spirits in front of you, so you panicked and fell from the sky.”
Flamy was stunned for a while, then it looked towards the group of Mountain Spirits that weren’t far ahead. Both of its wings flapped downward twice, and with eyes filled with panic and fear, it tried to fly backward.
Then, like a kite with a broken string, it fell twisting and turning from the sky.
“Is that one-horned bird a familiar? Normal monsters would definitely not dare to come closer after sensing so many Lord-tier monsters around here, but it flew so close.” A group of people stood on top of a mountain peak not far away.
“Maybe it’s just dumb.” A teenage girl with hair the color of red wine glanced at Flamy. “Don’t you guys think that the pose it took when it fell looked like its brain hadn’t developed fully?”
“You’re right. Only a monster whose brain didn’t fully develop would continue to come closer after detecting the aura of so many Lord-tier monsters.” A blonde young man nodded, agreeing wholeheartedly.
Naturally, Flamy wasn’t aware that, unintentionally, it had already been recognized as an idiot by the group of people.
The people from the Golden Hands gazed towards the Mountain Spirits gathered together beneath their feet, feeling something hot flowing within their hearts.
The leader of the pack mumbled to himself enthusiastically, “Almost, almost.”
A deep pit lay beneath their feet. Surrounding the pit were humongous mountains reaching to the sky.
It evoked the feeling of loneliness and helplessness that came from being surrounded by thousands of mountains for ten thousand rens. The terrain of the valley was steep, and in the deepest region, there was a crater that looked like the mouth of a gourd.
Countless Mountain Spirits gathered and squeezed together, like dumplings in a hot pot.
Boiling white mist covered the mountains and flowed quickly. Through it, the tops of the Mountain Spirits could vaguely be seen appearing.
The sound of movement came from afar. If one were to look down from the sky, one would see smoke rolling, wild and sandy fog permeating everywhere, and tree after tree being broken and sucked into the valley. Even more, one would see Mountain Spirits rushing toward them after!
It was as if something was driving the spirits crazy.
In the mountains, Gao Peng heard the sound produced by the movement of Mountain Spirits from afar. He frowned and looked forward. “Indeed, the Golden Hands have a method to attract the Mountain Spirits. If they use this in the city of Yuzhou…” Gao Peng suddenly sucked in a breath of cold air. He didn’t even dare to imagine it.
The Mountain Spirits squeezed together like they were going insane. However, due to the denseness of the white mist, one couldn’t clearly see the details of what was happening. They could only vaguely sense the intensity of it.
Growl!! Suddenly, a Mountain Spirit let out a booming sound. The sound lasted very long, like the sound of a horn, and it reverberated in the air of the forest.
Rumble. The ground shook violently. A Mountain Spirit slowly climbed higher, red-colored lava-like liquid appearing from the dark cracks of its body.
From the foot of the mountain, an odd gray-colored insect the size of a person’s palm extended its wings and slowly flew to the peak of the mountain, then landed on the back of the blonde man.
The surface of the blonde man’s shirt suddenly tore open, and two golden lights that looked like wheels tore through his shirt on the back, exposing a giant golden beetle. The golden lights that looked like wheels were the wings of the golden beetle.
The golden beetle was deeply ingrained in the back of the blonde man, sharp claw after sharp claw punctured deep into his flesh. Its mouth pierced inside along the vertebra, as if it was a parasite feasting on the back of the blonde man.
The golden beetle opened its big mouth, and the weird gray insect that was the size of a palm was swallowed whole by it. Then its eyes scanned its surroundings before it gathered its wings and continued its slumber.
Another person behind him took out a black robe from his bag and placed it on the blonde man.
“Didn’t think there was a group of tiny insects.” The wavy-haired blonde man’s face darkened. He turned his gaze towards Gao Peng.
“Was almost tricked by these tiny insects.”
Roar! A giant beast that moved like an ape and was entirely blue with two wings on its back walked slowly to the front and stood on the edge. It ferociously bared its teeth while also showing arrogance, staring straight down.
After taking a deep breath, a dense ray of lightning slowly began to condense inside the mouth of this huge beast. Electric sparks flashed on the side of the thunderball, creating huge arcs in the air.
Boom!
There was a thunderous boom. Bright light and roaring thunder covered the sky.
Flamy, who had just found Gao Peng after hiding in the dense forest, suddenly felt a malicious aura from afar locked on itself.
*Oh no!
Flamy’s feathers puffed out. Its feathers were like cotton, and its eyes stared straight toward the mountain peak. Through the dense branches and trees, it could vaguely see a blue light that couldn’t be dodged bursting from the mountaintop!
“Ah!!!”
Every feather on Flamy’s body burst out, disconnecting from the skin. Then, with the push of a red flame, they flew off of its body. Since the amount of feathers that fell off was too much, at that moment, Flamy looked as if it burst into a bloody light.
All of its feathers had left its body and flown out.
Multiple white feathers with tinges of red carrying a dim green light intertwined in the air. They layered against each other and turned into a thick shield.
The next moment—
Boom!
Violent flames tore through the space, lighting the leaves on fire. The trees and branches within 30 feet were instantly turned to dust by that powerful and violent force.
At almost the same moment as the explosion, a thunderous light came from the sky with the force of a thunderbolt. Through thunder and fire, the area was turned into hell.
Dumby sidestepped, instantly putting Gao Peng behind him, and he hugged Gao Peng as if his life depended on it.
The Horrifying Murderous Female Spider squealed and instinctively leaped backward to escape.
Huang Ya reacted quickly. “Elemental Shield!”
The Earth element inside the Horrifying Murderous Female Spider was extracted in high volume before condensing around his body to form an earthy yellow shield.
The aftermath of the attacks came, and the earthy yellow shield covering Huang Ya’s body rippled, but in the end, it made it through and didn’t break.
Goldie only started to react when the aftermath of the attacks came. It raised its head dumbly and was instantly blown into a tree. A purple light flashed by, and its body doubled in size.
Goldie stood up in a daze and saw a naked crane without feathers standing not too far away.
Eh? That crane sure looks familiar…
