Lin Luo had been cooped up in the villa for a month. He would only go out with Lin Meng'er when he needed to go shopping.
The villa was located in a relatively remote area in the city's north. It was quiet all around, and no neighbors were around.
Hence, Lin Luo's cultivation base advanced by leaps and bounds, and no one outside knew about it.
[Flying bird spell has successfully reached intermediate level. Host, please continue to work on it.]
[Thundering spell has reached intermediate level. Please keep up the good work.]
[The host's spiritual energy has reached the threshold. You have successfully been promoted to an intermediate Martial Master.]
After cultivating the flying bird spell and the thunderous spell to the intermediate level, and his cultivation also rose to the intermediate level of Martial Master, Lin Luo finally stopped.
He first went to the Martial Arts Association to collect his allowance.
The person who received him was the same young lady from last time. The other party's face was already numb, and she was used to it.
Lin Luo received the stipend and met an acquaintance as soon as he left the Association.
"Lin Luo," Zhang Chugui looked at Lin Luo in surprise.
"Young master Zhang."
Lin Luo stopped in place and waited for Zhang Chugui to approach.
Then, he saw Zhang Chugui's face twist for a while.
"You broke through?"
Lin Luo nodded his head as if it were only a matter of time. "I've broken through."
He had broken through a few days ago.
Zhang Chugui's expression was complicated.
Lin Luo's talent was too abnormal. Fortunately, such a person now belonged to their Zhang family.
"By the way, I'm organizing a hunting party for the day after tomorrow. It's a level seven yellow beast. Are you interested?"
There weren't many high-level monsters near the core city, and level seven or eight monsters were the best.
Even level seven and eight monsters were rare. It all depended on the luck of the hunting team.
This encounter might be good for a high-level hunter team, but it would prove a disaster for a low-level team.
But no matter what, everyone would rush to it once a level seven or eight monster was found.
As time went by, the hunting teams that found level Seven or eight monsters would not make a big deal out of it but would kill the monsters themselves quietly.
Lin Luo's clone had been hunting monsters outside the city for a long time but had never encountered a level-seven monster. Now that he had encountered one, he was a little curious.
"Okay, what time is the day after tomorrow?"
"Gather at the river on the left outside the city at eight in the morning."
Lin Luo agreed.
The morning after tomorrow.
Lin Luo let his two avatars go out to hunt exotic beasts while he went to meet up with Zhang Chugui.
When they arrived at the riverbank, Lin Luo realized that the team this time was quite large. It was actually led by a King-tier martial artist.
"This is elder Wu Yi." Zhang Chugui introduced them to Lin Luo.
The elders with titles were all the family's Grand Elders, and their status was even higher than the family head.
"This is actually training for us. Not a single elder will be protecting us. When we can't hold on any longer, or he'll kill Huang Shuo."
Lin Luo could tell that this yellow beast was meant for training.
No wonder there were so many Martial Masters.
Moreover, they didn't think they could kill this yellow beast. After they trained enough, none of the elders would kill the beast.
"Everyone. Let's go." None of the elders looked at Lin Luo indifferently and shouted.
They had found the yellow beast on a hill.
This place was filled with thorns and thistles.
At first glance, Lin Luo didn't recognize that these things, which were taller than humans, were thatch!
The thatcb and thorns on the left were even more exaggerated. The thorns were thicker than a human finger, and the tips of the thorns were purple, baring their fangs and claws.
"Use your spiritual energy to cover your entire body," Zhang Chugui reminded everyone.
There wasn't much grass outside the city, so many people didn't know how terrifying these mutatedones were.
Lin Luo's control of his spiritual power wasn't very good. It was a little difficult for him to use his spiritual power to wrap himself up.
After everyone was done, Lin Luo finally isolated everything from the outside world.
However, other people's spiritual energy shields were tightly attached to their skin. Only Lin Luo's was oval, like an egg that contained him.
"Lin Luo?"
Zhang Chugui looked at the "egg" and was a little dumbfounded.
"This way, there will still be time to react once the spiritual energy shield breaks." Lin Luo closed his eyes and tried to make up for it.
His expression was so calm and focused that Zhang Chugui and the others were fooled by him, feeling that he made sense.
And so, more than ten "eggs" appeared on one side of the hill.
None of the elders had ever been surrounded by a pile of "eggs" in their long lives.
Over ten of these "eggs" moved to a hill with less grass.
As soon as Lin Luo approached the grass, the system immediately issued a reminder.
[Caution! A dangerous creature is approaching.]
[Caution! A dangerous creature is approaching.]
A living being?
Lin Luo's neck stiffened as he looked at the flying catkins in the air.
The top of the thatched grass was fluffy. With a light touch, large balls of flying catkins would fall out and float in the air.
Lin Luo stared at the flying catkins in front of him.
After that ...
The flying catkin twisted.
F*ck!
It was alive!
These flying catkins were the dangerous creatures that the system had warned him about.
No wonder he had to wrap spiritual power around his entire body; these flying wisps were so small and light who knew where they would fly into.
Lin Luo had goosebumps all over his body. The clone's memory and what he had seen with his own eyes were two completely different things!
"Hiss! This catkin is too big." A martial artist beside him sucked in a cold breath.
Lin Luo tried his best to ignore the flying and wriggling catkins. He stuck his head out and looked at the top of the hill.
A large patch of weeds was growing on the hillside, high and low. The tall ones were taller than people, and the low ones only reached their bare feet. They were uneven as if they had been bitten off by something.
In the middle of the weeds, a huge object was lying.
This enormous creature barely retained some of the yellow beast's characteristics.
It had reddish-brown fur, a long and narrow face, and the hair from its mouth to its forehead was black, with obvious forehead glands.
The beast's horn on its head bent backward and inward, splitting into two forks.
However, the one-meter-long yellow beast in the modern world seemed to have been magnified tenfold here. It was more than ten meters long! It was even bigger than the elephants that Lin Luo had seen in the modern world!
Only the exposed parts of its face and abdomen looked slightly softer. The fur on its back was long and hard, like sharp spikes.
Coincidentally, the yellow beast opened his mouth, revealing a mouthful of fangs.
Just as Zhang Chugui was about to discuss how to attack the others, a scream was heard.
"Ah!"
It was a middle-grade Martial Master on the right.
His face was unusually red as if it was about to drip blood.
He could see that something was moving under his clothes.
"System, what's going on?"
[Thatch flying catkins have entered his body.]
A few of them felt that it was too ugly to turn the spirit energy shield into an egg, so they still stuck the spirit energy shield tightly along the outline of their body. However, this required a lot of fine control of spirit energy.
The middle-ranked Martial Master didn't have good control of his spirit power, and a small gap appeared in his spirit power shield, which the flying catkins immediately took advantage of.
F*ck! F*ck!
Lin Luo looked at his own "eggshell" and felt an unprecedented peace of mind.
