Chapter 1173 - Barrier of the Forbidden Land

Lu Shu was not actually a Sagittarius, but he was unhappy with what the female Practitioner had said…

He thought that this female Practitioner would reveal secrets from other Practitioner in exchange for resources, but she did not do so. She had more morals than he had expected.

In reality, whether someone had morals had nothing to do with how dangerous their situation was. This was something that Lu Shu admitted he was wrong about.

Lu Shu despised the poor attitude the two cameramen had shown last night. He preferred this magnanimous female Practitioner.

The leader did not speak to Lu Shu. He was embarrassed. He had said that this route was very safe, but a herd of cows had come.

He was worried that if he said something else, another strange thing would appear.

After the Practitioners encountered the herd of cows, they wanted to go back. They had not recovered from their shock.

But if they did not hunt, what would they eat? They had run out of antelope meat. They had shared their rations with the ordinary people as well in order to maintain their superiority and order.

Everyone had to find a way out. If not, they could only slowly wait for death in the campsite.

Lu Shu followed behind the group and observed their surroundings. The road they were walking on became more and more rugged.

This was not a hill. It had not been eroded by the wind either.

The ground in the remains had taken on a strange form after being distorted by energy. It seemed both frighteningly and mysteriously vast.

The leader suddenly crouched. The female Practitioner softly said to Lu Shu, “Yesterday, I asked them. They had found a strange place where creatures commit suicide. On the first day, they picked up three bodies of dead animals who had committed suicide. Thus, they felt that they had discovered the secret of this place.”

Lu Shu was dumbfounded. “Why did they commit suicide?”

“I don’t know,” said the female Practitioner.

They slowly crawled on the ground and advanced, as if they were afraid of being discovered. Then, a giant white serpent appeared and slithered towards Lu Shu and the rest. Its enormous body left massive marks on the ground. It was as if it had created a river.

The giant serpent was as large as a train. Lu Shu had goosebumps looking at it. When the white scales of the serpent rubbed against one another, there was a crashing sound.

This was probably the largest creature Lu Shu had seen in his life, other than that giant tortoise. Lu Shu could feel the power of natural laws from its body!

With this power, even if it was not of the Master Realm, it was probably close!

Lu Shu had only heard of such white serpents in the Legend of the White Snake, but there were no celestial beings here!

It was a pity that they were overseas. No one understood his reference. Thus, he felt somewhat lonely…

At that moment, the secret practitioners held their breath in shock. What would happen if such creatures were released on Earth? How many of such creatures were there in the remains?

The serpent advanced forwards. Suddenly, white lightning appeared in front of it. It blocked the serpent, preventing it from advancing.

The lightning covered the sky. Lu Shu was puzzled. Was this the barrier of the forbidden land?!

After he had learned about the barrier of the forbidden land from Lu Kongming, he had been thinking about how to find it. He would only be able to find a way out if he did so.

They had encountered the barrier, but Lu Shu did not think that escaping would be that simple.

It seemed as if the giant serpent did not accept this fact. It slammed into the barrier. Its white scales seemed to have been scorched by the electric net, but it could not go through.

Lu Shu now understood why the female Practitioner said that creatures had committed suicide. There was no difference between this and committing suicide!

But when Lu Shu thought that the giant serpent was about to die, there was the thunderous sound of galloping in the distance. Lu Shu was dumbfounded. He was all too familiar with this sound. It was the herd of cows who ate lightning!

The white serpent had also heard this. It did not even turn back. It went back into the hole it had appeared from.

Its white scales were badly damaged. It had suffered severe injuries!

Lu Shu suddenly had a realization. The barrier existed to keep out strong creatures like this white serpent. They were imprisoned here, preventing them from causing trouble.

But creatures like the white serpent were intelligent. How could they be willing to wait for thousands of years in this bleak and desolate place? Thus, this had happened.

The herd of cows ran towards the barrier. Lu Shu almost laughed out loud. They were too late. There was no more lightning!

Wait. No!

Lu Shu suddenly thought of something. The cows were the natural enemies of lightning. Could they eat the lightning barrier?

But at that moment, Lu Shu suddenly saw the herd of cows stop in front of the barrier. There was the loud sound of thunder from their stomachs. It was as if the heaven and the earth were shaking.

The cows opened their mouths and spat out the lightning in their stomachs. They started to make up for the lightning that the white serpent had used up!

Lu Shu had thought that the cows were stuck in the forbidden land. Now, he realized that the cows were the guardians of the forbidden land!

While others exerted great physical strength to exhaust the lightning barrier, the cows quickly ran over to make up for the exhausted lightning. It would be strange if someone was able to escape…

They ate lightning to replenish the barrier. Were they walking portable batteries?

Lu Shu felt that he absolutely could not feed the cows with lightning. He was still stuck here! The more the cows ate lightning, the stronger the barrier would become!

No wonder the white serpent ran away when it heard the sound of the cows approaching. It was afraid of them.

Luckily, Lu Shu had not taken any action. To be honest, he felt that it would take a lot of work to deal with the white serpent.

These creatures would create a lot of chaos, regardless of whether they were on Earth or in the Luniverse, but they had been thrown in here.

Lu Shu, Nie Ting, and the rest had thought about it. Whoever was able to obtain the relic would control the entire remains. He could not enter the door in the Seal of Lands, but this did not mean that he would never be able to do so.

Now, whoever was able to control the remains, would control the switch to destroy the world.

If the owner of the relic was willing to do so, the moment the creatures in the remains were released, no matter whether it was the Luniverse or the Earth, civilization would be attacked. It would be a true human catastrophe.

There were masters among humans, but there were masters here too. What Lu Shu had seen was simply the tip of the iceberg. What other frightening things existed here?

Wait. Who was the owner of this herd of cows? Were they able to make the cows listen to their commands?
