Lin Yu soon discovered that, being in this world, he was unable to unleash his full spiritual power.
No wonder there are no other cultivators in the surrounding land. It seems that even if those cultivators came here, they would only become food for the hounding beasts.
Fortunately, Lin Yu was extremely strong, and even though his strength was partially suppressed, he was still able to easily defeat these small monsters.
However, Lin Yu was somewhat helpless in the current situation. Since arriving in the Dao Qi Era, his strength seemed to have been constantly restricted.
This is so frustrating! I've never felt this way before in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms!
After pondering for a moment, Lin Yu pulled out a long whip from his storage space.
The whip was entirely silver-white, covered with countless barbs that looked incredibly hard. The barbs were interdependent, densely packed, and carried an extraordinary power.
This whip would be most effective if used to beat these monstrous dogs.
Lin Yu smiled slightly, never expecting that the things he had dug out of an ancient tomb would have such a use; he had certainly made the most of them.
As for He Buxian, Lin Yu didn't completely let him run wild. He seemed indifferent, but in reality, he was keeping a close eye on He Buxian's situation.
After all, Lin Yu himself is very powerful, and even if his strength is limited, he is no match for these little guys.
However, He Buxian's situation was completely different. Although he was stronger than ordinary cultivators, his strength was restricted, and He Buxian still fought very frustratingly.
Based on Lin Yu's deduction, even if He Buxian could hold on, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for very long.
However, since this was to train He Buxian, Lin Yu was in no hurry to make a move. He simply made casual moves from the sidelines without paying too much attention.
The system's deductions have made new progress. As Lin Yu faces enemies more and more times, the Hongmeng System collects more and more data.
The habits of those little monsters were all exposed in the face of the Hongmeng System.
Based on the prompts from the Hongmeng System, Lin Yu quickly discovered that these little monsters had a very simple attack pattern and no clear teamwork. It seemed that they only had one thing in mind: to attack anyone they encountered.
This kind of situation is definitely not a good thing for small monsters that aren't very strong but have a large number of members.
"Something's not right, something's very wrong!" After being alerted by the system, Lin Yu discovered another incident.
In other words, these hound-like demonic beasts came out entirely on their own initiative, not summoned by that strange force. Understanding this, Lin Yu felt the matter had become much simpler.
The behavior pattern of these little monsters is quite simple. In short, it's highly likely that some mysterious force is using these monsters to give them a hard time.
After fighting for a while longer, Lin Yu saw that He Buxian was already on the verge of collapse.
Just as Lin Yu had anticipated, the restriction on spiritual power had a huge impact on He Buxian, and he simply couldn't hold out for long.
Especially when encountering someone like He Buxian, who is covered in thorns, most of the smaller monsters will choose to surround him, and very few will go up to fight alone.
Those little monsters looked fierce, but their aura was mysterious.
However, Lin Yu still noticed something unusual about these little monsters.
These little monsters clearly resembled dinosaurs on Earth in some ways, but they weren't exactly dinosaurs. Lin Yu inexplicably felt that this resemblance in form might not be entirely a coincidence.
As Lin Yu was pondering this, he suddenly noticed that some small, dark green insects were slowly crawling out from deeper within the scales of these demonic beasts.
These little insects resemble ladybugs, with bulging abdominal cavities, but unlike ladybugs, they have extremely slender and short limbs, and a pair of thin and long antennae on their heads.
At this time, the light was dim, and only the dark green shell could be seen.
Lin Yu unleashed his power of lightning, the light of which momentarily illuminated the sky. In that instant, under the illumination of the light, the carapace of the small insect emitted multicolored light.
This phenomenon was too strange. Lin Yu couldn't tell for a moment whether this dark green worm was the same kind of thing as the previous parasite, or whether it was simply a weapon of the monster.
However, this is, after all, the Netherworld Immortal Realm, and nothing that happens here can be predicted according to common sense; in other words, anything is possible.
"Stain... stain... stain..."
Just as Lin Yu was pondering, a series of sounds suddenly rang out, sounding like water droplets dripping into boiling oil.
Lin Yu was wondering what was going on when he realized that the series of sounds came from the small, dark green insects that had just crawled out.
Upon closer inspection, the appearance of these small insects is not random; they only crawl out from the bodies of already dead hound-like monsters.
As Lin Yu and He Buxian killed more and more of these demonic beasts, the number of these dark green insects also increased.
Lin Yu initially thought that these small insects and the monstrous dog had a symbiotic relationship, but now it seems that the situation is clearly not like that.
No wonder this Netherworld Immortal Realm is so strange; even a tiny parasite seems so different from everyone else.
Lin Yu couldn't worry about anything else right now; his top priority was to eliminate these demonic beasts. The power he had just encountered had given Lin Yu a rather strange feeling.
On one hand, the power resembled the strange power He Buxian had encountered before; on the other hand, the things appearing before him also faintly carried a strange aura.
However, compared to that power, the aura emanating from these demonic beasts was only somewhat similar, not exactly the same.
Under normal circumstances, Lin Yu would not choose to cause trouble, but just now, he suddenly felt the fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone in his storage space vibrate slightly.
"Buzz..."
Lin Yu was all too familiar with this kind of vibration; it was the vibration that would occur when the fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone sensed a power similar to his own!
Could there be another fragment of the Sky-Mending Stone nearby?
Thinking of this, Lin Yu felt a little more anxious.
My original intention in coming to the Netherworld Immortal Realm was to help the ancient Phoenix Clan, but I never expected to find such a wonder here.
Thinking about it carefully now, it might have been influenced by the fragments of the sky-mending stones.
As the saying goes, "You can search high and low without finding it, but then it comes to you effortlessly." With the fragments of the Heaven-Mending Stone delivered right to his doorstep, Lin Yu had no chance to ignore them and immediately decided to continue his search.
