"My faithful believers!"
"The vile two-legged sheep are slandering your great Ancestor God!"
"My believers, can you endure such humiliation?"
"Speak out loud!"
In the Primordial Spirit Domain, Ma Baoguo floated in the void, his entire being radiating a sacred aura.
Below him were the Manticore Clan.
Hearing their Ancestor God's divine oracle, all the manticores erupted in furious roars!
"Duoxiba!"
The sound surged wave after wave, piercing the heavens.
Duoxiba translated into human language meant no!
Clearly, these dim-witted manticores had been thoroughly enraged.
How great was their Ancestor God?
Those weak two-legged sheep dared to slander him?
The manticores wished they could tear those two-legged sheep to shreds right then and there!
"Excellent, truly my faithful believers!"
"The lowly and vile two-legged sheep shall surely face the thunderous punishment of the great Ancestor God—Baoguo Buyaolianpi Meiyoujiecai Ma!"
"Now, take up your weapons and defend the Ancestor God's dignity!"
Ma Baoguo's voice dripped with seductive persuasion.
On the ground, the manticores were already howling wildly, their fierce killing intent bursting forth from their bodies!
Seeing this, Ma Baoguo was thoroughly pleased!
He swept his sleeve and bellowed.
"Go, tear those despicable two-legged sheep to pieces!"
As his voice fell, the manticores howled and surged forward like a swarm.
In the jungle around Lingxiao Immortal Palace.
Ye Nima directed a crowd of players, frantically digging traps.
Seeing the progress nearly complete, Ye Nima looked at a player with the ID Cannot Eat Peach.
"Peach, you're sharp-eyed. Go scout ahead!"
"See if that Ma Baoguo has shown up yet!"
Cannot Eat Peach nodded at this.
He was good at this sort of thing!
Immediately, Cannot Eat Peach swiftly slipped into the jungle ahead.
After advancing about a few hundred meters.
Cannot Eat Peach suddenly heard a sharp sound tearing through the air above.
Before he could react, his body had already left the ground involuntarily.
"Holy crap! This..."
Cannot Eat Peach was startled.
Only then did he realize he had been grabbed into the air by a monster.
The monster had wings on its back, a body like a lion's, and a long tail ending in a massive hook.
"Manticore?"
As a veteran who had played countless games, Cannot Eat Peach recognized the creature at once.
The manticore was a species from an extremely old game.
"My god, there are actually manticores in a cultivation game? Feels so surreal!"
Cannot Eat Peach paused, letting out an exclamation of wonder.
As for being snatched into the air by the manticore?
He didn't care.
This was just a game—he couldn't die.
At worst, if he died, he'd lose a bit of experience. Who was afraid of that?
The always bold Peach, on the contrary, grew excited instead.
Listening to the wind whistling past his ears, Peach thought to himself.
"I'm probably the first player in Immortal Path to take to the skies, hahaha!"
Just as the sand sculpture player Peach was lost in wild thoughts, the Scorpion Lion had already grabbed him and descended.
Cannot Eat Peach was directly thrown to the ground by the Scorpion Lion.
"Damn, the Scorpion Lion's lair!"
Peach wasn't afraid at all; instead, he looked around with great interest.
When he saw the dense crowd of Scorpion Lions gathered around him, he got excited.
"I actually found a respawn point!"
"After the event ends, I can come here to grind, hehehe!"
Cannot Eat Peach was secretly delighted.
Just then, a voice came over.
"Human, you are captured!"
Hearing the voice, Cannot Eat Peach instinctively turned to look.
The next moment, a plain-looking, thin young man came into his view.
"Nani?"
Cannot Eat Peach opened his mouth, instantly stunned.
Among the Scorpion Lion Race, there was actually a human?
"Hey, bro!"
"Are you a player or an NPC?"
Cannot Eat Peach shouted excitedly at the plain-looking young man.
The plain-looking young man was, of course, Ma Baoguo.
Hearing Peach's words, Ma Baoguo was full of question marks.
What the hell?
Why can't I understand what this human is saying?
What is a player?
What is an NPC?
"This guy probably hasn't even awakened his intelligence yet, right?"
"Come to think of it, how long has Ye Yu only opened his Divine Domain? Those human Believers of his are probably still in a primitive age!"
Ma Baoguo thought to himself.
Then, he cursed his bad luck.
These Scorpion Lions were really something—they actually caught a human who hadn't awakened his intelligence. What use was that!
Ma Baoguo was a very cautious man.
Although he was fully confident in hunting down Ye Yu, when he actually stepped into Ye Yu's Divine Domain with the Scorpion Lion Race, he still chose to be careful.
Originally, he wanted the Scorpion Lions to catch one of Ye Yu's Believers, so he could extract some useful information from them.
But who would've thought they'd catch a guy who hadn't even awakened his intelligence.
"Damn, I can't team up with you!"
"Are you an NPC or something?"
"My god, there's actually an NPC hidden here!"
Cannot Eat Peach let out a cry of surprise.
He had just tried to send a team invitation to Ma Baoguo to figure out whether this plain-looking young man was a player or an NPC.
But the game system showed that teaming up was impossible.
At that moment, Cannot Eat Peach instantly understood.
The person before him was an NPC!
Immediately, he got excited.
In the current Immortal Path, the only NPC players knew of was Ye Yu.
And Ye Yu had only released the mission to clear out the Spotted Wolves before going silent.
Now that the Spotted Wolves were long dead, many new players hadn't even seen what a mission looked like!
Cannot Eat Peach was one of them.
If it weren't for today's Immortal Path story event starting, Cannot Eat Peach would have thought this game had no missions at all.
So at this moment, suddenly seeing a second NPC, his mind was already flooded with words like hidden quests, adventure quests, and so on.
For a moment, he even forgot about the event.
Seeing Cannot Eat Peach staring straight at him, eyes burning with intensity, Ma Baoguo couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
"Damn it, I'm actually being intimidated by a weak human!"
Ma Baoguo was somewhat furious from embarrassment.
Since he couldn't pry any useful information out of this foolish human, why keep him around?
Just toss him to the manticore to be eaten!
With a flicker of thought, Ma Baoguo was about to command the manticore to devour Cannot Eat Peach.
At that moment, Peach across from him suddenly leaped up.
He strode forward, grabbed Ma Baoguo, a grin spreading across his face.
"Big bro, NPC big bro!"
"Have a heart, give me a hidden quest to play with!"
"I'm a veteran player, my game skills are top-notch!"
