Black-Striped Cloud Leopard
The first snowfall of that winter was heavy, covering many areas in the heart of the Magical Beast Mountain Range with thick snow. Various footprints were clearly visible in the snow, some human, some from monsters of different sizes. 69ᔕᕼᑌ᙭.ᑕOᗰ
"Such heavy snow."
Lin Feng was still wearing his tattered linen trousers, only his upper body exposed. Even though the temperature was cold enough to freeze the rushing water solid, Lin Feng was not afraid at all.
Barefoot, Lin Feng strode forward.
Whenever it snows and freezes, Lin Feng would calm his mind to feel the ice and snow, hoping to comprehend the profound mystery of "the Ice Sharpness" in the Water Law. However, no matter how hard Lin Feng tried, Mysteries could not find the way in.
Lin Feng's initial mastery of "Water Impact" was only an intermediate-level Mysteries, while "Ice Sharpness" was an advanced-level Mysteries. Having achieved remarkable success in Life Magic, he naturally did not need to rely on the Laws of Water Elements to quickly improve his realm. Lin Feng only wanted to master the profound Mysteries of "Ice Sharpness," then make "Water Impact" and "Ice Impact" compatible, and then, imitating the Laws of Wind Elements, allow these two Mysteries to be comprehended and fused together simultaneously.
The idea was good, but the result was cruel.
"Boss, the Yulan Festival should be coming soon, right?" Beibei guessed.
Having spent so much time in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, Lin Feng had even forgotten the approximate time. Although he had a pocket watch, it only showed the time and not the date.
"It should be about right," Lin Feng nodded.
It's been about two years since Lin Feng entered the Magical Beast Mountain Range. During these two years, his warrior strength has grown relatively quickly, reaching the peak of level nine. His use of the greatsword is also far superior to when he first obtained the Black Obsidian Heavy Sword. In particular, he created the ultimate move "Soul Devour," which is Lin Feng's strongest attack method and his biggest trump card.
Of course, gaining some Laws of Water Elements was also a pleasant surprise.
"Huh?" Lin Feng and Beibei both turned to look.
Not far away, Lin Feng saw two burly men in leather armor, wielding weapons, running frantically. Upon seeing that they were humans, Lin Feng continued walking. Many experts frequently entered the Magical Beast Mountain Range to cultivate, and in the past two years, Lin Feng had encountered quite a few humans. Lin Feng adhered to the principle of not provoking the humans in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
After all, many of them were specifically after the Magic Core in other people's bags. Lin Feng had Space Ring, so he didn't bring any bags. Therefore, very few people were interested in taking advantage of Lin Feng.
"Wait, wait!" came an anxious shout from behind.
Lin Feng ignored them completely and continued walking. The two men were running very fast and caught up in no time. When they caught up, Lin Feng immediately stopped and turned around.
"What do you want?" Lin Feng asked coldly, looking at the two burly men.
"Us?" The two burly men exchanged a glance, then gave Lin Feng an awkward smile. One of them, a one-eyed bald man, apologized, "We didn't mean anything by it, it's just that the central area of the Magical Beast Mountain Range is extremely dangerous. We two brothers wanted to travel with you, brother. That way, we can help each other, wouldn't it be much safer?"
The other bald man paused for a moment, then nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, the central area is too dangerous. Let's go together and help each other. We'll leave the central area together, and once we're out of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, we can split up."
Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "Could these two be the ones being chased by Haeru?"
Despite his thoughts, Lin Feng coldly replied, "I'm not interested."
Lin Feng turned around and continued on his way alone.
Seeing that Lin Feng left so decisively, the two bald men exchanged a glance, hesitated for a moment, and then immediately chased after him.
"Wait a minute, brother, please wait a moment." Two bald men chased after them again.
Lin Feng frowned and turned to give the two pursuers a cold look. He had no liking for them; in the original story, if Lin Feng Lin Feng hadn't been strong enough, he probably would have been killed by them.
The two men looked at Lin Feng awkwardly. The one-eyed man apologized repeatedly, saying, "We're so sorry, but we really wanted to travel with you. Don't worry, once we're out of here, we'll definitely thank you properly."
Lin Feng glanced at the two of them.
"Go ahead and join if you want," Lin Feng said indifferently.
"Thank you, thank you," the two bald men said gratefully.
The two of them immediately followed closely beside Lin Feng, glancing around every now and then with a hint of fear in their eyes.
"Brother, we are from the Southwest Province of the O'Brien Empire. May I ask who you are?" the bald, one-eyed man asked, trying to strike up a conversation with Lin Feng.
"Why ask so many questions?" Lin Feng glanced at the man. "If you want to follow, then follow, but don't make a sound."
"Yes, yes." The bald, one-eyed man nodded repeatedly.
In their eyes, Lin Feng was indeed an extraordinary person. It was not strange that he wore only a pair of trousers in the dead of winter, but what was strange was that he walked so calmly and slowly in the central area of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
It seems that the most dangerous place is his backyard.
"Big brother," the bald man behind tugged at the leather armor of the one-eyed bald man and whispered, "Big brother, do you think we can save our lives?"
The bald, one-eyed man looked around in fear and whispered, "Don't overthink it. Let's just follow this mysterious man. If we follow him, we might still have a chance."
"Yes." The bald man nodded, but he was still uneasy inside.
After walking for a while, Lin Feng stopped to rest.
Lin Feng only walked about ten miles a day, spending the rest of his time cultivating. When Lin Feng stopped, the two people behind him became genuinely anxious.
"Why did you stop?" the bald, one-eyed man asked anxiously.
"Hmm?" Lin Feng gave him a cold look, clearly displeased.
His second brother quickly said with a forced smile, "Sir, this is still the central area. Shouldn't we leave this dangerous place and rest there?"
Lin Feng frowned and said, "You two, stop bothering me. You can follow if you want, but I can leave or stop whenever I want. If you keep making a scene, don't blame me for killing you both."
The two bald men exchanged a glance, then gave each other awkward smiles.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."
The two immediately stepped aside, no longer daring to disturb Lin Feng.
Lin Feng sat down cross-legged and drew the Black Obsidian Heavy Sword, placing it on his lap. But just then, Lin Feng suddenly felt a whoosh of wind!
Lin Feng suddenly turned his head, and a dark shadow flashed past in front of him and then disappeared.
"Ah, ah!" Fearful screams came from afar, but stopped after only two or three cries. Only then did Lin Feng notice that only one of the two bald men remained. It was the one-eyed bald man; his brother was nowhere to be seen. There was a pool of blood on the snow nearby.
"Ah, ah, no, no!" The bald, one-eyed man seemed to have been stimulated beyond measure and screamed.
