Chapter 1965 A Sneaky Beast

Chapter 1965 A Sneaky Beast

While Lin Mu's proficiency with swords was better due to his Sword Intent, the speed and reach of Wonder Seeker was still better. Plus, Lin Mu could prepare an attack beforehand and keep it charged to deal a lethal blow.

Normally he wouldn't take this much effort, but the unknown beast was a bit concerning to him.

'I can't sense it through immortal sense, and even Little Shrubby could only smell it for a moment... How is it hiding?' Lin Mu wondered and activated his Spatial Perception.

~shua~

As soon as he did, the entire scenery in front of him changed and the fabric of space became visible to him.

"Strange... no signs of anything." Lin Mu didn't see anyone hiding there.

Even if they were using some Qi skill to hide, there should have been minute fluctuation that affected the space.

~CLICK~

But just as Lin Mu had thought that there was no one hiding, he suddenly felt a presence behind him!

"WHO?!" Lin Mu barely reacted in time, but saw a long spike coming towards him.

It was just an inch from him and was about to hit him.

Flicker!

He reacted instantly and used the first skill of the ring to negate the damage.

The Spike pierced through the place where he was standing but didn't hurt him.

Blink!

Lin Mu instantly increased the distance between him and the foe, realizing this was no normal beast.

~TWANG~

At the same time, he released the arrow he had kept charged. The Stone arrow tore through the air ignited with a searing hot flame, rushing towards the spot where the attack had come from.

~CHINK~

A dark blur was seen hitting the arrow, and the attack was deflected!

~DENG~

But the Scorpion Beast still had two of its shorter tails free, which it used to strike back at Little Shrubby.

~HISS~

Even if it managed to stop the attack, the heat from the claws still started to hurt it.

~WHOOSH~

And now that Little Shrubby was so close to the beast, he breathed out orange flames that covered the entire body of the scorpion.

~SCREECH~

The Scorpion beast let out a screech of pain, and recoiled from the flames. Even if its carapace was tough, it didn't mean it was heat resistant. If it didn't stop the flames, it would end up getting cooked from the insides!

Lin Mu took this chance to grip the two tails of the Scorpion. The rocky gauntlets formed by the Longgui Bulwark Armor were perfect for it, and Lin Mu yanked the beast towards him.

At the same time, he raised his leg, which swelled up as red aura filled up within it.

"TYRANT STOMP!"

~SQUELCH~

~TREMBLE~

Lin Mu's leg struck the middle of the scorpion's head smashing it into the ground mercilessly and detaching its four pincers in the process. As not only was the head crushed, but the force of the impact was great enough to affect the rest of the body too.

~huu~

Lin Mu let out a breath and took a step back from the beast, while his leg reduced to the normal size.

"It should be dead now." Lin Mu checked using his immortal sense.

While there was still some lingering vitality within the flesh of the beast, its brain had been utterly destroyed, so there was no chance for it to be alive.

~shua~

Of course, that didn't mean that its soul was dead too.
