Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 60: Siege of the Beastkins

Most people in this world would not think like Qin Yi did, because Qin Yi had Liu Su. The method of immortality was right in front of him. Unlike many people who strived for immortality, they would not hesitate to go through mountains of swords and seas of fire for the sake of the possibility of immortality, not to mention a little desolation.

Whether he agreed with the so-called “Wither Bone Everlasting” or not, it could at least prove that there must be an “immortal” who knew many spells living here or there were related ruins.

This was an immortality chance.

Qin Yi could comment like a hair tonic advertisement, but few others could keep a pure heart in front of an immortality chance.

“From this point of view, the sea of ??skeletons just now is not necessarily a gatekeeper. On the contrary, it is a display of immortal arts, attracting people to continue moving forward.” Qin Yi muttered, “Is this a way to find a destined successor in the immortal world? If those who don’t move forward, this inscription will be regarded as a gift of fate?”

Liu Su said, “There is indeed such a way of showing off. Some people are particularly fond of playing and doing various tests. But in a place like this, they can only entertain themselves, right? It was already a miracle that Dong Huazi slipped and fell. How many people could end up the same?”

“Looking at it this way, it’s either the beastkin refining array or the curse ahead. Dong Huazi can go through three levels, which is probably the limit.” Qin Yi suddenly reached out and grabbed Ye Ling who was about to retreat, “I’m staring at the stele this time, not the stick, so what’s your expression?”

“No, it’s not…” Ye Ling swallowed, “There is a very familiar feeling in front. I… I’m scared.”

Without a doubt, it must be the beastkin refining array.

Qin Yi squatted in front of Ye Ling and said softly, “The beastkin refining array is just a garbage evil array. You can break it once and you can break it a second time, so why should you be afraid?”

Ye Ling said, “This array is definitely greater than Dong Huazi’s.”

“But this time I’m with you.” Qin Yi paused for a moment, feeling that these words sounded a bit familiar. Is she thinking that I’m a burden, so she is weaker than this array?

Ye Ling replied, “Then I will follow you. If anything happens, I will run away…”

Qin Yi could only say, “You have to believe that you are actually more powerful than the master of this place. Dong Huazi can even escape this place, so how dangerous this place can be?”

Ye Ling knew it was not that simple, because Dong Huazi would never go in to die if it was really dangerous, but they would. After all, their goal was to find a solution to the curse, not for a tour.

She hesitated for a moment and stretched out her little hand, “Giant Talisman, let me use it again.”

“… No more. I only had one. Who will craft so many of this useless talisman?”

“But of all your talismans, I think this is the most useful.”

Qin Yi deadpanned, “If it’s really big instead of looking big, then I agree with you.”

Ye Ling’s eyes flashed, “Is there one that can make be big for real?”

“Yes, but I can’t make it yet.” Qin Yi explained happily, “If I practice more and settled my Foundation Establishment, I will probably be able to…”

Liu Su said faintly, “Hey, are you taking your children out for an outing? Can you have a little bit of tension of an adventure?”

“Ahem.” Qin Yi came to his senses and took Ye Ling’s hand, “Let’s go. Who cares about the array? Uncle will smash it to pieces.”

“I heard that you are only 16 years old. Are you not ashamed to call yourself uncle every day?”

“Then what should I call?”

Ye Ling said naturally, “Brother of course.”

Qin Yi blinked, “Say it again.”

“Brother.”

Qin Yi was so bewildered that his steps became a little brisk.

Liu Su really wanted to knock these two dogs on the head.

So it did.

Mace was held in Qin Yi’s right hand. It quietly turned to his back, intending to smack Qin Yi’s butt.

Qin Yi didn’t even notice that his right hand was being moved. Suddenly, he stopped and said seriously, “Ye Ling, did you smell it?”

Liu Su’s movements suddenly stopped, and the spikes on the stick were less than half an inch away from Qin Yi’s ass.

Ye Ling sniffed, “Bloody smell.”

There was no path on this hill, so they headed up the slope without a hill road road. After climbing for about a mile, the hill breeze blew, bringing a strange smell to them. The smell seemed to be a mixture of bloody smell and the stench of beasts. Although the smell was distant and faint, it smelled disgusting.

The smell became worse and worse.

There was a faint roar coming from a distance. Ye Ling listened carefully and whispered, “It’s on the other side of the hill. Let’s go around.”

Qin Yi stepped forward.

The mace moved, and the spikes stung and quickly retracted.

“Hiss…” Qin Yi’s attention was attracted by the situation behind the hill, so he just thought he accidentally hit himself.

Liu Su felt so comfortable that she completely forgot that she was the one who treated the adventure as an outing.

The hill didn’t look big, but it was quite big when he actually ran around it. When Qin Yi and Ye Ling got to the other side panting, the sight made them both take a breath. Even Liu Su became slightly serious.

On the vast slope ahead, countless beastkins were fighting. A fox with two tails, a giant wolf with three eyes, a goshawk with four sharp claws, a centipede thicker than a snake, and a mosquito bigger than a ball, a flower with petals like a huge mouth, a tree that stretched out its branches like tentacles… There were a dazzling array of birds, animals, insects, and plants.

This was not a beastkin world exhibition, but a great war. Corpses scattered everywhere. Blood flowed all the way from the hillside into a pit, forming a terrifying pool of blood. There was a black lotus blooming faintly in the blood pool.

But the beastkin animals were not fighting for the lotus. Instead, they seemed to be avoiding it. The target of their fight was a giant tree. The tree was bare and leafless, but a peach grew on the top of the highest branch.

The four-clawed goshawk swooped down and headed straight for the peach. Several sharp arrows thicker than door bolts were shot from below, piercing heavily into its chest. The goshawk screeched and fell far away. Looking in the direction of the arrows, a hedgehog that looked like an elephant was laughing strangely.

Ye Ling watched the scene without blinking, looking for her kind. After a while, she sighed in disappointment.

There were many varieties of snakes, including giant pythons that were much thicker than her, but all of them had no wings.

Qin Yi was on guard. He dragged Ye Ling to take cover behind a rock, not daring to get close. In his senses, all these beastkins were very strong… It was hard to distinguish whether these beastkins were at the Spirit Initiation Stage or Morph Stage, because no beastkin would use human form to fight here.

In other words, among the thousands of beastkins in the skirmish, the weaker ones were stronger than him and the powerful ones were about the same level as Ye Ling…

If they charged in like that, it would be suicide.

Why not wait and see how the skirmish turned out?

Just as he was thinking this, a small grass slowly grew up in the sand behind Ye Ling, then it grew bigger and bigger. A human face appeared on the grass, grinning ferociously.

TL: A grass beastkin? Will they get ambushed so easily?
