Chapter 918: Chapter 585: Discovering Opportunity, Sweeping Through the Forest Sea (Part 2)

Its strange sensing ability makes it more convenient than Lu Qing to find the Xuanlin Black Mouse.

Sure enough, Little Li soon made a discovery.

"Ah Qing, there’s a black mouse underground a hundred feet to the right front!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Qing’s thoughts moved slightly, and a strand of Earth Vein Magnetic Force probed toward the location Little Li mentioned.

Indeed, a hundred feet to the right, one foot underground, he detected a wisp of aura.

This aura was almost completely integrated with its surroundings; if Little Li hadn’t pointed it out, even he might not have discovered it.

However, since it had been discovered, everything became easier.

Lu Qing lightly stepped with his foot, and the strand of Earth Vein Magnetic Force suddenly intensified, instantly binding the Xuanlin Black Mouse.

Bang!

The Xuanlin Black Mouse that was lurking underground was startled and, with its low spiritual wisdom, had no idea what had happened, only struggling violently out of instinct.

The burst of powerful force caused the ground to tremble and roll.

However, despite the Xuanlin Black Mouse’s robust physical body, with a power comparable to the Golden Core Realm,

Lu Qing had already fully figured it out, so naturally, he had ways to deal with it.

Immediately, the Earth Vein Magnetic Force under his control, like spider silk, tightly entangled it.

No matter how much the Xuanlin Black Mouse tried to exert its power, it remained helpless against the extremely flexible and formless Earth Vein Magnetic Force, unable to break free.

"What’s happening?"

The sudden tremor immediately startled the Five Treasure Taoist.

"It’s nothing, Little Li discovered a black mutant beast, and I’ve already captured it. Let’s go over and take a look."

"Already captured one?" The Five Treasure Taoist was even more surprised.

Because he hadn’t sensed anything just now, how did they suddenly capture one?

In a bewilderment, the Five Treasure Taoist followed Lu Qing to the spot where the commotion arose earlier.

And then he saw a black mutant beast similar to what he’d seen before, wrapped in a mass of yellow light.

No matter how it struggled, it couldn’t escape the spider silk-like binding of the yellow light.

"Is this... Earth Vein Magnetic Force?"

The Five Treasure Taoist immediately recognized the spider silk-like yellow light binding the Xuanlin Black Mouse.

Only then did he understand that Lu Qing had trapped the Xuanlin Black Mouse with the Earth Vein Magnetic Force. No wonder there was such a big commotion.

But with this, his heart became even more shocked.

Earth Vein Magnetic Force is usually only mastered by cultivators who specialize in Earth Element Taoist Skills.

And Lu Qing could wield such a powerful Earth Vein Magnetic Force and control it so exquisitely, managing to confine the physically strong Xuanlin Black Mouse from a hundred feet away.

His attainment in Earth Element Taoist Skills must be extremely profound.

But earlier, he clearly heard from Ye Qiaozhu of the Qiankun Sect and the others, saying that Lu Qing seemed very adept in the way of the sword.

Recalling earlier when Lu Qing set up an array quietly while he was regulating his breath,

The Five Treasure Taoist felt that the more he got in touch with Lu Qing, the more mystifying he found him.

"Mr. Chen, how did you discover this black mutant beast from so far away?"

The Five Treasure Taoist couldn’t help but ask.

The Xuanlin Black Mouse’s aura concealing ability was extremely strong. Even if it were right in front of someone, an average Golden Core Realm cultivator might not be able to detect it.

Yet, from a hundred feet away, Lu Qing still managed to discover and capture it, which was truly unbelievable.

"This isn’t my doing; it’s Little Li who discovered it." Lu Qing rubbed his head.

"Little Li discovered it?"

The Five Treasure Taoist’s gaze fell on Little Li.

"Yes, Little Li’s spiritual sense is naturally quite keen, allowing it to easily find the traces of these black mutant beasts," Lu Qing explained.

Feeling the Five Treasure Taoist’s gaze, Little Li glanced at him sideways, then slightly lifted its head with a proud look.

Leaving the Five Treasure Taoist not knowing what to say.

He suddenly remembered the terrifying aura Little Li briefly revealed back at Observation Peak.

Indeed, Mr. Chen’s spiritual beast is far from being as simple as it appears.

"Daoist, let’s move on."

While the Five Treasure Taoist was in shock, Lu Qing casually secured the Xuanlin Black Mouse’s corpse and continued holding Little Li, moving forward.

Leaving the Five Treasure Taoist, still somewhat bewildered, standing there.

He suddenly noticed a problem.

Which was, given the current situation, he seemed unable to provide any help.

If things continued like this, what face would he have to claim this opportunity later?

"Daoist?"

After Lu Qing had walked dozens of feet ahead, he noticed the Five Treasure Taoist hadn’t caught up, so he looked back in confusion.

"Apologies."

The Five Treasure Taoist snapped back to reality and caught up, feeling a bit embarrassed.

At the same time, he made a firm resolution internally to prove his worth in the upcoming time.

Otherwise, even if Lu Qing would share the opportunity with him, he would be too embarrassed to accept it.

"Seems using some cards in my sleeve is the only option."

The Five Treasure Taoist touched the gourd at his waist.

In the following time, Lu Qing and his companions continued to shuttle through the Forest Sea. Under Little Li’s guidance, they found and slashed one Xuanlin Black Mouse after another.

And the Five Treasure Taoist discovered, as he had predicted, there truly was no way for him to help during the whole process.

As soon as Little Li located the Xuanlin Black Mouse’s trace, Lu Qing would usually activate the Earth Vein Magnetic Force, trapping it instantly, giving the Five Treasure Taoist no chance to intervene.

However, by this time, the Five Treasure Taoist had made other decisions, so he didn’t continue to be distressed, instead clenching the gourd at his waist, with a somewhat solemn expression, as if preparing for something.

Thus, with Little Li’s assistance, Lu Qing searched a large area of the Forest Sea, capturing and slashing more than twenty Xuanlin Black Mice in one go.

These Xuanlin Black Mice seemed to have solitary habits, as they found only one in each area, never encountering two together.

More strangely, this Forest Sea seemed to harbor only the Xuanlin Black Mouse, as Lu Qing and his companions found no other beasts.

"Daoist, let’s take a break for now. Besides, we’ve slain quite a few of these black mutant beasts, let’s handle them first."

After another Xuanlin Black Mouse was slain, Lu Qing suddenly suggested.

"I’ll follow your lead, Daoist,"

The Five Treasure Taoist naturally didn’t object.

On the contrary, he was even looking forward to it.

After all, he had yet to truly witness the miraculous effect of the bloodline within the black mutant beasts.

Without delay, Lu Qing found a decent spot and set up another talisman array.

This time, the Five Treasure Taoist watched Lu Qing set up the array.

Once the array was ready, he sensed seriously again, finally feeling the faint flow of the array power.

He was more amazed at Lu Qing’s attainment in arrays.

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn’t believe that a powerful talisman array existed around them.

The way Lu Qing set the array had likely reached the realm of a master.

After completing the talisman array, Lu Qing took out the corpses of the Xuanlin Black Mice he had slain before, piling them up into a small hill on the ground.

Although each Xuanlin Black Mouse was only a few feet in size, Lu Qing had slain quite a few this time, totaling dozens.

"Daoist, I’m planning to extract the bloodline from these black mutant beasts. Do you have any good extraction methods?" Lu Qing asked.

"I have a top-grade treasure, the Alchemy Gourd, which should help with extracting some of it," said the Five Treasure Taoist.

"Then I’ll trouble you, Daoist, to extract from these black mutant beasts."

Lu Qing waved his hand, and about a quarter of the Xuanlin Black Mice corpses, swept by Mana, landed in front of the Five Treasure Taoist.

"It’s just a small task,"

The Five Treasure Taoist nodded immediately.

Inside, he let out a sigh of relief.

With this, he could finally prove himself useful.

Lu Qing waved his hand lightly, and about a dozen of the slain Xuanlin Black Mice landed before the Five Treasure Taoist.

"My apologies."

The Five Treasure Taoist snapped back to attention, face flushed, and followed along.

Meanwhile, in his heart, he resolved to show his true worth in the following time.

Otherwise, even if Lu Qing shared the opportunity with him, he wouldn’t have the face to accept it.

"Looks like I’ll have to use some of my trump cards."

The Five Treasure Taoist patted a gourd at his waist.

In the following time, Lu Qing and the others continued to traverse the Forest Sea, tracking down and slaying Xuanlin Black Mice one by one with Little Li as their guide.

And the Five Treasure Taoist found, just as he had anticipated, that he indeed was of no help throughout the entire process.

Whenever Little Li detected a trace of a Xuanlin Black Mouse, Lu Qing would immediately activate the Earth Vein Magnetic Force to trap it, leaving him with no chance to take action.

However, by now, the Five Treasure Taoist had made another decision, so he didn’t continue to fret but instead held the gourd at his waist, his expression somewhat serious, as if preparing for something.
