Chapter 397: Fight with all your might!
"Is this the opportunity that can transform the dragon bloodline?"
Lu Yu was secretly amazed in his heart. He observed the fruit tree carefully and found that the soil under the tree was dark red, as if soaked with blood.
"It seems that this fruit is indeed extraordinary."
Lu Yu smiled and was about to go forward to pick the fruit when he suddenly heard a low growl coming from the top of the cave.
Lu Yu looked up and saw a miniature version of the Wind-Thunder Pterosaur Bat hanging upside down above the cave.
Compared with the one outside, the dragon-transformation area of this Wind-Thunder Pterosaur Bat is larger, and it has even grown a dragon tail. Only the torso has not yet completed the dragon-transformation.
"So that's how it is. The reason why the Wind-Thunder Pterosaur Bat outside is unwilling to give up is probably not just because of this fruit, but because of its cub!"
Lu Yu suddenly realized. He looked at the wind-thunder pterosaur bat cub carefully and his eyes became solemn.
“The body of this cub has already become so dragonized, so the amount of fruit it has eaten must be far more than that of the adult Wind-Thunder Winged Dragon Bat.
It is only one step away from completing its transformation, sublimating its bloodline, and becoming a true baby dragon!"
Lu Yu secretly sighed in his heart that even the lowest-level dragon clan would most likely become the overlord of the Star Dou Great Forest in the process of future growth.
However, at this moment, the Wind-Thunder Pterosaur Bat cub suddenly pounced on Lu Yu with its fangs and claws.
Its wings flapped, accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder, and a blue-purple light swept out with great momentum.
"Humph, you dare to attack me, you are seeking death!"
Lu Yu snorted coldly, raised his hand and summoned his martial soul - Fantian Seal, and then smashed it out without hesitation.
"boom!"
The Fantian Seal hit the cub's head hard, making a loud noise.
Lu Yu thought that this blow was enough to seriously injure the cub, but he didn't expect that the cub's head would instantly explode under the blow of the Fantian Seal, and blood and brain matter splattered everywhere.
"This……"
Lu Yu was stunned, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a moment.
After a moment, he reacted. Looking at the slowly rising purple soul ring, Lu Yu felt mixed emotions.
"I didn't expect this cub to be so vulnerable."
Lu Yu shook his head. Although this purple soul ring was precious, he didn't need it.
After all, his martial spirit, Fantian Yin, was already strong enough and he didn't need to rely on the power of spirit rings to improve it.
However, at this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the cave.
"No, someone is coming!"
Lu Yu was shocked. He immediately put away his soul ring and martial soul, and hid in a corner of the cave.
Soon, several people in black broke into the cave.
Holding a weapon, he looked around vigilantly.
“There really is a treasure here!”
One of them shouted excitedly, "Quick, everyone split up and search!"
Lu Yu hid in the dark, watching these people's actions, and secretly felt fortunate.
Fortunately, I discovered it in time, otherwise, the fruit would have fallen into someone else's hands.
The men began searching the cave, but soon someone discovered fruit trees and bloodstains on the ground.
"Look, there's a fruit tree!"
Someone pointed at the fruit tree and shouted.
"There are traces of blood. It seems that a battle just took place here."
another added.
"No matter what, let's pick the fruits first!"
The leading man in black waved his hand, signaling the others to come forward and pick the fruit.
However, at this moment, a purple figure suddenly rushed out from the darkness and headed straight for the fruit tree.
"who?"
The leading man in black exclaimed.
However, before he finished shouting, the purple figure had already picked the fruit and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
"Chase!"
The leading man in black shouted angrily and chased after the others.
Lu Yu hid in the dark, watching all this happen, secretly feeling fortunate.
Although he was quite powerful, he still found it difficult to match up with so many people.
Fortunately, the fruit had been picked by myself, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Lu Yu walked out from the darkness only after the footsteps of those people faded away.
He looked at the fruit in his hand and his heart was filled with joy.
"This fruit will definitely help me improve my strength!"
Lu Yu secretly swore in his heart that he would find a safe place to eat the fruit.
However, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard a faint cry.
"Huh? What is this sound?"
Lu Yu's heart moved, he immediately followed the sound, and soon found an abandoned cub.
This cub was exactly the same species as the Wind-Thunder Pterosaur Bat cub that he had killed before.
It was now curled up in a corner, its body covered with scars, its eyes filled with fear and despair.
"It seems that it was abandoned by those men in black."
Lu Yu sighed inwardly. He looked at the cub and a feeling of pity welled up in his heart.
"Forget it. Since I have come across you, I will save your life."
Lu Yu made a secret decision in his heart. He walked forward, picked up the cub, and left the cave.
After walking out of the cave, Lu Yu found a hidden place and placed the cub.
Then he took out the fruit and prepared to eat it.
"Although this fruit is precious, my strength is the most important."
Lu Yu thought secretly in his heart, he put the fruit into his mouth, and then activated his soul power.
As the fruit melted, a powerful force surged into Lu Yu's body.
He felt that his soul power was increasing rapidly and his body was becoming stronger and more powerful.
"Great, the effect of this fruit is indeed extraordinary!"
Lu Yu was secretly happy that his strength had been greatly improved.
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from his body.
"what happened?"
Lu Yu exclaimed, he felt a powerful force raging in his body, making him unable to control himself.
"Could it be a side effect of this fruit?"
Lu Yu was secretly guessing in his heart, he endured the pain and tried to suppress this force.
However, this force became increasingly powerful, making Lu Yu feel unable to resist.
He groaned in pain and rolled on the ground.
At this moment, a purple figure suddenly appeared beside Lu Yu.
It was the Wind-Thunder Pterosaur Bat cub that Lu Yu had rescued before.
"You...why are you here?"
Lu Yu looked at the cub in surprise. He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak.
The cub seemed to understand Lu Yu's words. It gently flapped its wings on Lu Yu's body to comfort him.
Then, the cub suddenly opened its mouth and spit out a golden bead.
This bead emits a soft light and has magical powers.
"This is……"
Lu Yu looked at the beads spit out by the cub, his heart full of doubts.
However, at this moment, the bead suddenly flew into Lu Yu's mouth.
As the beads melted, Lu Yu felt the pain in his body instantly eased a lot.
"This bead... can actually suppress this power?"
Lu Yu was secretly surprised. He felt the power in his body gradually calming down, and his heart was filled with gratitude.
"Thank you, little one."
Lu Yu looked at the cub and said gratefully.
The cub seemed to understand Lu Yu's words. It gently flapped its wings on the ground and made cheerful sounds.
Lu Yu looked at the cub, his heart filled with emotion.
He didn't expect that a cub he accidentally saved could actually save his life at a critical moment.
"It seems that everything in this world has a spirit."
Lu Yu sighed in his heart and decided to take good care of the cub and raise it.
So Lu Yu took his cub, left the cave and started a new journey.
During the journey, Lu Yu continued to practice and improve his strength.
The cub gradually grew up and became stronger and stronger under his care.
The next day, Lu Yu and his cub were resting in a forest.
Suddenly, there was a burst of rapid footsteps.
"No, someone is coming!"
Lu Yu was startled and immediately looked around vigilantly.
Soon, several people in black appeared in front of them.
These people were exactly the men in black who had chased Lu Yu before.
"Humph, I didn't expect you to hide here!"
The leading man in black looked at Lu Yu with murderous intent in his eyes.
"You evil thieves, do you still want to hunt me down?"
Lu Yu snorted coldly and prepared for battle.
However, at this moment, the cub suddenly rushed out.
It spread its wings, waved the power of wind and thunder, and attacked the men in black.
"Little guy, be careful!"
Lu Yu exclaimed, he didn't expect the cub to take the initiative to attack.
However, the cub was fearless.
Relying on its powerful strength and speed, it shuttled among the men in black and continuously launched attacks.
The men in black were caught off guard by the cubs' attack, and soon several of them fell in a pool of blood.
"This... this little guy"
Fantian Seal, this thing is not simple. It is jokingly called the "head-blasting weapon" by everyone, which means that it is extremely powerful. Even a hard head cannot withstand it with one blow.
Lu Yu is a soul master who knows everything about soul beasts and soul bones.
On this day, Lu Yu was exploring in the Xingdou Great Forest when he suddenly encountered a thousand-year-old soul beast. This guy was no ordinary soul beast, and he had rich dragon blood flowing in his body.
Lu Yu took a liking to it at first sight, thinking that if he could hunt down this soul beast, he would definitely be able to gain a lot of good things.
So Lu Yu approached quietly and prepared to launch an attack.
He held the Fantian Seal in his hand and chanted a spell in his heart. The Fantian Seal instantly became extremely huge and smashed towards the soul beast's head with a whistling sound.
However, at this moment, a trace of hesitation suddenly flashed through Lu Yu's mind. He remembered the title of "head-blasting artifact" of Fantian Yin, and was worried that the soul beast would die on the spot with this blow, and even its soul bones would not be left.
But now that things have come to this, it's too late to stop.
There was a loud "bang" and the Fantian Seal hit the soul beast's head heavily.
Lu Yu thought that this attack would kill the soul beast, but unexpectedly, the soul beast just shook its head and did not seem to be seriously hurt.
Lu Yu suddenly realized that the dragon blood of this soul beast gave it extraordinary defensive power, and even a magical weapon like the Fantian Seal could hardly kill it with one blow.
However, although the soul beast did not die, Lu Yu discovered an even more shocking secret.
It turned out that the attack he had just made was aimed at the soul beast's cub, and because the cub was still young, its defense was relatively weak, so the power of the Fantian Seal was at least five times greater on the cub! Lu Yu was pleasantly surprised, thinking to himself that he had really found a treasure this time.
He hurried forward to check on the cub and found that it was dying and obviously could not survive.
So, Lu Yu dismembered it without hesitation and began to look for the soul bone.
After a while, he found a piece of crystal clear bone with a bluish-purple luster from the cub's ribs. This was exactly the external soul bone he had been dreaming of!
Lu Yu carefully put the soul bone into the soul guide ring, then rushed out of the cave and ran wildly in one direction.
His heart was filled with excitement and joy, because this external soul bone would greatly increase his strength and become an important aid in his path of cultivation.
After running for nearly an hour, Lu Yu stopped.
He did not stop because he was exhausted, but because he keenly sensed a fluctuation of soul power coming from not far ahead.
Lu Yu's heart moved, and he guessed that there might be soul masters fighting, so he quietly stepped forward to check the situation.
As he quietly approached the clearing in the woods, he saw a graceful figure suddenly flying out from the air, spurting blood from her mouth and her face as pale as paper.
Lu Yu looked closely and found that it was actually a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. She was wearing a neat outfit and had a curvy figure, which was very beautiful.
Her eyes are dark brown and her hair is short dark purple, which makes her look very capable.
The girl held a snake-head cane in her hand, with two yellow spirit rings surrounding her body, and was obviously a two-ring spirit master.
Lu Yu recognized the girl at a glance. She was Meng Yiran, the granddaughter of the snake lady Chao Tianxiang.
Lu Yu had met Meng Yiran during an expedition to the Soul Hunting Forest and knew that she was a soul master with rich combat experience and could also use hidden weapons.
"Meng Yiran? Why are you here?"
Lu Yu was secretly surprised, but also a little worried.
Although Meng Yiran is quite powerful, he is currently fighting with a wolf-like soul beast whose cultivation has exceeded two thousand years, and the situation is extremely critical.
At this time, Meng Yiran was trying his best to deal with the wolf-like soul beast.
Her movements were swift and agile, and the snake-head crutch in her hand was like a living thing. Sometimes it turned into a green light to attack the vital points of the soul beast; sometimes it turned into a solid shield to resist the fierce attack of the soul beast.
However, although Meng Yiran had rich combat experience, the soul beast was far more powerful than her.
It opened its bloody mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, and pounced towards Meng Yiran.
Meng Yiran dodged the attack with a flash of her body, but her face became even paler.
"Humph, you little girl, you still want to fight with me? You are simply overestimating your own abilities!"
The soul beast roared triumphantly, as if it had already secured victory.
Meng Yiran gritted his teeth and did not back down.
She knew that she had nowhere to retreat at this moment and could only fight with all her might.
So, she swung the snake-head cane in her hand again and launched a fierce attack on the soul beast.
However, at this moment, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in Meng Yiran's sight.
That person was Lu Yu! He was holding a sharp dagger and rushed towards the soul beast like a ghost.
"Meng Yiran, don't be afraid, I'm here to help you!"
Lu Yu shouted, and the dagger in his hand flashed with cold light as he stabbed towards the soul beast's eyes.
