Guhe put down his longbow. People who dared to venture deep into the Direbeast territory were not ordinary. There were often some powerful physical masters hunting Direbeasts alone in the Direbeast territory. This person did not have any energy fluctuations and did not seem like a physical master. However, he gave off a huge pressure, which was very strange.
At this time, the other members of the team also walked towards the small lake, looking very excited. The levels of the Direbeasts in the valley were not high, but their numbers were huge. In the past two years, as the situation became more and more turbulent, the value of the Direbeasts had increased several times. A bottle of low-level gene potion had risen to four to five million star dollars, and there was a chance of extracting mid-level gene potions from the maturing Direbeasts, which could be sold for tens of millions of star dollars. This trip could be said to be a fruitful one.
When they saw the scene by the lake, they could not help but be stunned. There were actually humans living in such a place!
The Brown Bear by the lake stopped wailing and hid behind the person. Its bell-sized eyes carefully watched.
Guhe said loudly, "Friend, according to the rules, this Direbeast is ours."
That person turned his head expressionlessly and looked around coldly. He then silently returned to the wooden house, picked up a tall corpse, and slowly left. The Brown Bear was stunned for a moment, but it hurriedly followed him step by step.
When Guhe saw the corpse with a faint golden light, he was stunned at first. Then, he thought of something, and his expression immediately changed. His body trembled with excitement. After a moment, he came back to his senses. He withdrew his excited expression and quietly made a hand gesture.
The team members cooperated well and knew what this hand gesture meant. They spread out in all directions. Two elementalists silently gathered elemental energy, while the other members surrounded them.
The person who was slowly walking away in front seemed to have noticed something. He stopped and let out an undetectable sigh.
"Whoosh!" An arrow with a green light was shot out.
At the same time, tree roots rose from the ground and swept over like poisonous snakes. This was the Wood Elementalist in the team controlling the trees. In this dense forest, the combat power of a Wood Elementalist was even above that of a Physique Master.
Various other attacks followed closely behind. The most eye-catching one was the other Elementalist in the team. She waved her hand at the calm surface of the lake, and clusters of water rose up. They quickly gathered and compressed, condensing into bright water arrows that shot out in all directions. Originally, water did not have much lethality. However, the highly compressed water arrows were different. The power of these highly compressed water arrows was no less than that of a high-pressure water knife released from a distance.
Their party was best at cooperating in battle. They had hunted many mature Ferocious Beasts before. Not only was there a Physique Master in the party, there were also two Elementalists who could control Elemental Energy to fight their enemies. The other members were also well-equipped. Even an Intermediate Physique Master would find it difficult to escape unscathed once they were surrounded.
Just as the man was about to be torn apart by the various attacks, a strange scene occurred. He seemed to slowly put down the corpse behind him and pulled out the long white sword on his back, swinging it away before the attacks could reach him.
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned. What kind of skill was this? It was as if all the storm-like attacks had become slow in front of the other party.
"Continue!"
A loud shout woke them up, and they hurriedly used various methods to attack again. One of the short young men hurriedly took off his clothes. His skin rapidly changed color with the surroundings, and he quickly merged with the environment and disappeared into the air.
That man dodged left and right amidst the attacks that filled the sky. He seemed to be slowly approaching them.
"F * ck, what's going on? I can't hit him!" A young man holding a gun exclaimed as he pulled the trigger.
"Third Brother, Rocket Launcher," Gu Hai shouted.
The other party's figure was extremely strange. He seemed to be moving slowly, but all the attacks that reached him were unable to hit him. Gu Hai's bow and arrows were also unable to hit him. Gu Hai took the shoulder-mounted Rocket Launcher and fired a rocket.
Just as the rocket was about to hit him, the man suddenly stretched out his hand, and the rocket immediately changed its direction and fled into the forest.
The figure was already close to them, and a chilling murderous intent locked onto them. Huge beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads, and they crazily fired bullets at the figure. In their panic, the bullets even lost their aim.
Gu Hai secretly clenched his teeth. This person was really too terrifying. His combat power was far above the average Physique Master. He was at least an Intermediate Physique Master, and he was even more proficient in long-range attacks. Once he got close to him, he would only be able to use half of his strength.
"Run!"
This thought flashed in his mind, and he glanced at his panicked teammates beside him. The seemingly powerful Elementalist was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered when a Physique Master got close to him. Once he got close to him, it would definitely be a massacre. He no longer hesitated and turned around to run.
When the people beside him noticed that the Physique Master leading them had run away, they also turned around to run.
At this moment, the figure suddenly accelerated again. Like a spring, he swept past the crowd. Time seemed to have frozen for a moment. The few people only felt their throats tighten, and their heads flew up to the sky.
When Gu Hai saw the terrifying scene behind him, he hurriedly threw away the rocket launcher on his body and quickly ran out of the valley. In a battle between Physique Masters, it was very difficult to kill each other, but it was not difficult to escape. Speed was limited by gravity and atmospheric pressure. For any living creature, there was a limit. If they wanted to break through the limit of speed, they could only advance in all aspects.
Just as he ran two steps, an indescribable sense of crisis welled up from the bottom of his heart. He had rich combat experience. Although he was frightened, he did not panic. He pulled out the short sword at his waist and backhanded it.
With a light sound, he felt a chill on his chest. He had already been cut in half by a white jade long sword.
…
Luo Kai looked at the corpse at his feet. It was the first time he had killed a Physique Master. The main reason was his spiritual power. The omnipotent spiritual power could directly slow down the flow of time. Although it could only slow down time by a few tenth of a second, he was almost invincible in this tenth of a second.
When the sound of gunfire rang out in the valley, Luo Kai knew that his peaceful life had come to an end. Wherever he went in this life, no matter if it was a human or a beast, everything would be implicated. The ferocious beasts in the valley had only suffered an unexpected calamity. The connection of cause and effect was extremely complicated, but it was inevitable. This was fate.
These days, he had been chanting scriptures all day long, which made the realm of his soul sublimate. The path of fate was not unbreakable. There were fifty great Daos, and forty-nine of them were born. One of them had to escape. If one wanted to break the path of fate, one must not be limited by things, not be hindered by emotions, not be restricted by good, and not be complacent by evil. This was what Buddhism said: the four elements are all empty.
Four people escaped. He did not chase after them. Instead, he went back to Thirteen. Thirteen's entire head was buried in the ground. He was shivering like an ostrich. He bent down and patted him gently. "Alright, it's okay. Get up."
Thirteen raised his head and looked around. He clung to Thirteen's leg and licked it with his big tongue. His big mouth could not stop moaning. He looked like a naughty child who was bullied and went home to complain to his parents.
Luo Kai sighed helplessly. These days, Thirteen had been following him all day and listening to him chanting scriptures. He was getting more and more out of his wild nature and closer to human nature.
He raised his head and looked at the rapidly melting snow mountains. Since the lunar eclipse, the temperature had begun to rise. It increased by one or two degrees every day. Today, it was already more than 30 degrees. It would not be long before this quiet valley became a river. It was time for him to leave.
