Chapter 353 Return to Magic Martial Arts
Lu Hao hadn't been exploring the Forbidden Sea for very long when he encountered another large fish, an eighth-grade fish. The fisherman was overjoyed, saying that the Forbidden Sea was a paradise for monsters, where high-grade monsters could be seen everywhere. After absorbing the energy of the immortal source, the Forbidden Sea would also form energy mines or other treasures.
Like the Heavenly Golden Lotus, a natural spiritual treasure produced by non-demon plants, it cannot be seen on land, but it exists in the Forbidden Sea.
There are also other treasures that are special products of the Forbidden Sea, but Lu Hao has not yet discovered them. After all, he has not yet reached the true ocean and is still in a major current. In the true Forbidden Sea, there are many eighth-grade demonic beasts, if not everywhere, and there are also many ninth-grade demonic beasts. As for those who can advance further, there are relatively few. After all, ninth-grade demonic beasts can be created by using resources, but the requirements for the ultimate Origin Path are not low. Demonic beasts without intelligence are basically unable to reach the ultimate.
Without much thought, Lu Hao continued killing the big fish as before, taking out their brain and heart cores, leaving the corpses there to see if he could lure a ninth-grade demon beast.
Lu Hao waited patiently by the side for the ninth-grade demon beast to arrive.
Meanwhile, deep within the Forbidden Sea, a colossal figure swam through the water. It seemed to have caught a whiff of something, and thus quickly rushed toward the direction from which the scent was coming.
Lu Hao didn't expect that he would actually catch a fish, but the fish was too big for him to eat.
A short while later, after Lu Hao killed two seventh-grade demonic beasts that had gathered there, he saw a huge shadow rushing towards him.
Just as Lu Hao thought it was a ninth-grade demon beast that had been attracted and was about to make a move, he quickly activated stealth, concealed his aura, and stood motionless to the side, afraid of being discovered. Could someone tell him why even top-tier demon beasts had come?
I was just saying that top-tier demonic beasts are rare, and here I am! What a loose tongue of mine...
Lu Hao was completely numb. At first, he thought it was a ninth-rank monster and was about to make a move when his powerful mental energy gave him a sixth sense. He sensed danger and stopped his sword from striking out. He used his mental energy to probe the monster and found that its mental energy was on par with his own. Only then did Lu Hao realize that the monster a hundred meters away was a peak-level monster.
This was the first time Lu Hao had ever been so close to the pinnacle. Although he had met Zhang Tao before, the monster in front of him was clearly not someone to be trifled with.
Fortunately, the stealth effect was present, and the attention of the supreme demon beast was focused on the corpse of the eighth-grade fish, so it did not notice Lu Hao peeking from the side.
Even so, Lu Hao remained motionless until the supreme demon beast swallowed the eighth-grade fish whole and left. Only then did Lu Hao breathe a sigh of relief and quickly ran towards the tributary. "The main stream is too dangerous. I need to go back to the tributary!"
Lu Hao, fleeing like a wolf or fox, successfully returned to the tributary of the Demon Capital Cave. He stopped being picky and stopped hunting monsters. Now, he thought that ninth-grade big silly monster was actually quite good; at least it didn't give Lu Hao such a sudden scare.
Emerging from the tributary, Lu Hao returned to the surface. Before him lay the familiar Hundred Beast Forest. Compared to the demonic beasts in the Forbidden Sea, Lu Hao instantly felt that the demonic beasts in the Hundred Beast Forest were much more benign. After all, they wouldn't suddenly unleash a supreme demonic beast. However, Lu Hao had no intention of taking action. After all, moving one thread would affect the whole situation. He would remain peaceful for as long as possible. Once he broke through to the supreme level and had the strength to sweep through the Demon Capital Cavern, he could directly conquer it. Although he wasn't afraid now, the losses from a war would likely be substantial. Lu Hao activated stealth and began to traverse the Hundred Beast Forest. With supreme mental power, Lu Hao openly and brazenly probed the movements of the ninth-grade demonic beasts, swaggering through the Hundred Beast Forest. The ninth-grade beasts on the other side didn't react at all. After all, the difference between 9999 and 10,000 was not just a matter of one hectoliter of mental power, but a qualitative leap that was difficult to overcome.
This change is not only quantitative but also qualitative.
Along the way, Lu Hao had also thoroughly investigated the situation inside the Hundred Beast Forest. There were five ninth-grade demonic beasts, more than ten eighth-grade demonic beasts, and even more seventh-grade ones. It could be said that the Hundred Beast Forest truly lived up to its name as the forbidden area of the Demon Capital's underground cave. With such a massive force of demonic beasts, even a ninth-grade martial artist would not fare well if he entered.
However, Lu Hao recalled a special case: Qin Fengqing had entered the Hundred Beasts Forest when he was at the third rank, and he had even come out safely. What a talent! This is truly a talent. He entered the territory of forty or fifty high-ranking people at the third rank and even gained some benefits before leaving. It can only be said that he is a child of destiny, and his reputation is well-deserved.
On the other side, Qin Fengqing, who was sealing the door in the Magic Martial Arts Training Room, suddenly felt an itch in his nose. Achoo, achoo, achoo. "Which bastard is talking about me?" Qin Fengqing cursed inwardly. It must be that kid Fang Ping talking about him. Ever since Fang Ping reached the sixth rank, he used to be called Senior Qin, but now he's become Old Qin. If he breaks through a little more, he'll probably have to call him Little Qin. It's a pity that the sealing speed is too slow. He has been at the sixth rank for five months, but the first gate of Qi and Blood has only been sealed by one-fifth. At this speed, it will take two years just to seal the first gate. This speed is already very fast compared to others, but Qin Fengqing is still not satisfied. After all, the geniuses around him are all making rapid progress. Once he falls behind, he may never catch up.
However, Qin Fengqing was helpless. There was no way to seal the gate. He tried to use the energy stone to generate energy through self-destruction in his body to propel it, but the result was negligible. He even suffered a lot of injuries because of it. If it weren't for the life essence he had before, he might still be recovering from his injuries.
Qin Fengqing was also envious. He envied Old Wang's cheat-like ability, which included an indestructible substance within his body that would automatically heal him when injured and had even forged a golden body. Old Wang could probably seal the gate faster than Qin Fengqing. He was extremely envious, but there was nothing he could do but envy. So Qin Fengqing stopped thinking about it and continued sealing the gate.
Lu Hao successfully traversed the Hundred Beast Forest, heading west without encountering any underground warriors. Soon, he saw a familiar piece of land—the Bloodstained Meat Grinder. He was almost at Hope City. A sweep of his mental energy instantly traversed over thirty miles, allowing him to see the situation in Hope City. His peak mental energy was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. After undergoing transformation, the range of his mental energy's detection was terrifying. Once Lu Hao's mental energy increased further, he would also be able to scan an entire area with his mental energy. He could even create a mental energy clone, so he could prepare one for each of his parents, and then he wouldn't have to worry about anything.
