Chapter 218: Hunting the Heron
Chu Muyu and the others walked very carefully, walking towards the foot of Wanshou Peak, the clothes of the three of them were already wet from the rain, and they looked very embarrassed.
"Use exercises to calm out the heat of your body, don't let the cold air here enter your body!"
Chu Muyu reminded the two of them that it was indeed in this deep mountain and old forest, if they were sick, it would be very bad, although Yang Yu could use exercises to help recover, but the recovery without treatment medicine was also very slow, and it would be very dangerous once he encountered a spirit beast.
"Ah......" Gege suddenly shouted, so frightened that Chu Muyu and Yang Yu hurriedly turned around to run the exercises, and Chu Muyu thought that he was in some danger.
"What a big centipede...... I'm scared to death!" Gege is very afraid of these bugs, especially the insects in this ancient jungle are very large, although they are not demon beasts, but they also look uncomfortable.
"Gege, you almost scared me to death!" Chu Muyu stepped on his foot, and ended the centipede that was about the length of his palm.
"Huh...... It's disgusting!" Gege didn't dare to continue looking, she ran to Chu Muyu's side, grabbed Chu Muyu's arm and continued to move forward.
After the rain stopped and the dark clouds dispersed, the entire Wanshou Peak appeared in front of them, this mountain was even taller than Yunding Peak, and some scattered clouds were surrounded, looking very fairy.
"How come this good place is occupied by spirit beasts......
"What's the matter, you want to come here to live in seclusion?" Gege teased Yang Yu, and Yang Yu also waved his hand in response: "No...... No, I just think it's a good place for someone to start a sect here to practice!"
After the clouds cleared, the sun came out to envelop the real island, and the sunlight shone through the gaps in the dense leaves, and the rain was quickly evaporated into heat.
Chu Muyu and the others had been walking all the time, but now with the evaporating heat, they were sweating profusely, and the clothes that had been dried were wet with sweat again.
"It's hot...... Senior Brother Chu, why don't we take a break, I see a stream in front of me, go drink some water!"
Chu Muyu jumped onto the towering tree trunk, and he carefully observed the surrounding environment, mainly to see if there was any danger near the creek that Yang Yu said.
"Let's go, I looked ahead and it was safer. ”
They rested by the stream for a while, washed their faces, and suddenly felt a burst of refreshment.
The water here is crystal clear, with pebbles and nimble fish and shrimp that can be seen clearly, and in addition to being clear and cool, the water is also extremely sweet, and it tastes like chilled water with added sugar.
Gege and Yang Yu sat and rested on the stones by the stream, while Chu Muyu was in the air checking the environment and the direction he was going to go for a while.
"Brother Yu, come down and rest for a while!"
Chu Muyu landed beside Gege, he squatted by the stream, picked up his sleeves, picked up the stream and splashed it on his face, the coldness of the stream and the breeze swept by, Chu Muyu suddenly felt like being reborn.
He touched the water on his face and said, "I'll think about whether I can bypass the Teng Snake for a while and go directly to the top of Wanshou Peak to find the fox heron." ”
"Brother Yu, you have the final say, we all believe that you will minimize the danger. ”
"Well, if we fight the Teng Snake at the bottom of the mountain first, the fox heron standing on the top of the peak is easy to spot, and once it is discovered, the change in the battle situation will be uncontrollable. ”
Chu Muyu was very thoughtful, if the fox heron found out that the Teng Snake was fighting, it might take the opportunity to attack the Teng Snake, and use their power to kill and devour the Teng Snake to improve its cultivation, so that a spirit beast would be wasted.
There is also a possibility, the fox heron found that the following battle will deal with Chu Muyu and them together with Teng Snake, if this is the case, they will have to deal with two powerful spirit beasts at once, and the probability of winning is basically very small.
Chu Muyu took these into account, so if he could let the Teng Snake not find out that his head was on the peak, he would first solve the fox heron, although the Teng Snake was powerful, its eyesight could not detect the situation at the peak.
But the battle with the fox heron did not last too long, although the snake has poor eyesight, but as a spirit animal, it can feel the energy that does not belong to itself and the fox heron, but it will take a while for this energy to be transmitted from the peak to the jungle, so to let the snake not find out, it must also end the battle with the fox heron in a short time.
After Chu Muyu finished speaking, he sighed deeply, he knew how difficult it was to kill a spirit beast with a constant sensitive attribute in a short period of time, and he still had the ability to fly.
And the reason why he didn't bring Xiao Ran with Gege is that Gege and himself both have the ability to fly, although Xiao Ran now has a guardian spirit beast like a snow phoenix that is close to a divine beast, but he can't fight in the air.
"Gege, if there is a battle, you will summon the Grass Pheasant Dragon as soon as possible, the Water Domain will play a key role here, and it can also protect Yang Yu well. Chu Muyu looked at Yang Yu and added, "You are the key to whether we can successfully hunt these two spirit beasts!"
Yang Yu was a little confused by Chu Muyu's words, he couldn't participate in the battle himself, and he didn't have attack power, why the key to the battle would be himself.
Chu Muyu and the others rested and walked towards Wanshou Peak, in fact, the best way for them to bypass Teng Snake was to fly to the top of Wanshou Peak, but they couldn't do so.
In the air, they can be attacked by the heron at any time, and it can be said that the sky above this island belongs to the territory of the heron, and it is basically impossible to fly without being detected by the heron.
Chu Muyu could only take them to the place where the demonic qi was weakest, and this was also the most unlikely place for the Teng Snake to appear.
Until the evening, they finally came to the foot of Wanshou Peak from the sea side of the island around the range of Teng Snake's activities, they did not stop, if they rested at the foot of the mountain, it was very likely that they would be discovered by Teng Snake at night, so they had to continue to go up the mountain, at least to climb to the mountainside to rest in peace.
At night, except for the cries of some nocturnal exotic beasts, there is not even a little firelight, but fortunately, the night sky is not obscured by clouds and mist, and you can see the surrounding situation clearly by some moonlight.
Coming to the mountainside, there are no dense trees, basically grass and various small plants, and the cries of gnats are densely surrounded, but the loudest is a waterhole on the mountainside, which is a waterhole where the peak waterfall falls, and after the waterfall falls into the waterhole, it flows down the stream to the foot of the mountain to feed the animals of the jungle.
Chu Muyu and they rested by the waterhole, they didn't dare to light a fire, they didn't even dare to speak too loudly, the fox heron was a high-sensitivity spirit beast, and its senses were very keen, and it could clearly feel the movement that didn't belong here.
Chu Muyu didn't sleep, he saw that Gege and Yang Yu had fallen asleep on both sides of him, this was their trust in him.
