With Lin Tian leading the way, everyone walked very steadily without disturbing the powerful beasts.
I still remember that time when Lin Yan and the others went into the mountains to retrieve bird eggs, they accidentally ran into the Tianjue Mountains, and barely escaped death when they encountered a giant python and a golden-winged eagle.
If I hadn't run so fast, I would have become a snack for the beast that time! Of course, Lin Yan himself was the worst. Later, he encountered a tide of beasts and was chased all the way to the depths of the Tianjue Mountains.
It was also at that time that Lin Yan met Qiu Lao, and his fate also quietly changed. I don't know if it was a blessing or a curse!
But things are different now. With Lin Yan's current strength, if they encounter those ferocious beasts again, they can definitely train them!
But no one dared to be careless at all, after all, this was the notorious Tianjue Mountain Range. The beasts they encountered back then were only powerful characters on the outside, but there were many more powerful than them in the depths!
Moreover, luck played a large part in the fact that these little guys were able to escape safely back then. If we really talk about strength, even Lin Zhen leading the hunting team will undoubtedly be included.
Along the way, Lin Tian led everyone along a safer route, which was a more reliable route taken by the hunting team.
Of course, in order to explore this route, they had spent a lot of time and paid a high price.
After all, it’s brutal here! Lin Yan's trip into the mountains was not completely unprepared. At least the approximate destination had been planned in advance.
It wasn't that Lin Yan didn't want to decide on a clear location, but that the Tianjue Mountain Range was too large, and for some reason, there were very few records about this incident.
If it weren't for the academy's library, Lin Yan might not even know that such a battle had happened here.
Fortunately
"There is no airtight wall in the world." After much understanding and Lin Gu's efforts to recall, Lin Yan roughly delineated a range, which was close to the middle of the Tianjue Mountains.
It can be said that with the overall quality of this team, under normal circumstances, it is difficult to pose an effective threat to them in the outer area.
But once you step into the middle section, there are still great risks! After all, we can't expect to have the same luck as Lin Yan did when he was a child.
Everyone has been thinking about this for a long time. This trip cannot be about speed, only stability! Moreover, there happened to be a place that looked like an ancient formation near that area, so Mo Li and Lin Yan's destinations were roughly the same, which also tied Uncle Mao to their boat in disguise.
Along the way, Lin Yan and his party basically encountered no major dangers, and even the occasional wild beasts were dealt with by everyone.
I have to say that Lin Tian, the guide, played a big role here. If Lin Yan and the others were allowed to wander in, they would probably have alarmed the beasts long ago. Not to mention heavy losses, they would at least be delayed.
Just like that, as everyone moved forward, the sky gradually darkened. Since we are not rushing forward with all our strength, the speed will naturally be much slower.
And at night, the Tianjue Mountain Range would become more dangerous, and it was really not conducive to continue marching, so everyone had to camp and rest on the spot.
Fortunately, Lin Tian brought a tent, and everyone picked up some branches and other things, gathered them into a pile, lit them on the spot, and started eating.
Naturally, the outdoors is not as good as at home, and the only food you can eat is the dry food you bring with you, which can only be roasted on the fire.
But for everyone who has been traveling for so long, this is quite good! As for why we don't hunt some wild animals or something to eat, it's mainly because this is the Tianjue Mountains.
Moreover, the purpose of Lin Yan and his party this time was not hunting. The dry food in hand was still enough, so there was no need to cause trouble just to satisfy their appetite.
If you accidentally get into trouble with some beast group, you will put the cart before the horse, and the gain will outweigh the loss!
Against the backdrop of the campfire, Lin Yan and Lin Tian chatted with each other. They were friends from the same village and had experienced life and death together.
So even though we haven't seen each other for a long time, there is no trace of life at all. Lin Yan handed the kettle in his hand to Lin Tian and said:
"Brother Lin Tian, I did the right thing when I asked you to be our guide this time. We haven't encountered any big dangers along the way. Your level is about to catch up with Uncle Lin Zhen!" Lin Tian took a few sips from the kettle. , smiled and said:
"This route was discovered by the seniors of the hunting team over the years. I don't dare to take credit for it. But you, your strength has improved very quickly!" Judging from the only few shots on the road, Lin Yan solved it with great ease. According to Lin Tian's judgment, this kid has at least reached the Tongmai realm, and has long surpassed himself in realm.
I thought that the two of them could still compete on the same stage back then, but now, I am afraid that I am no longer Lin Yan's opponent!
Although Lin Tian felt a little frustrated about this, he was more happy for Lin Yan! But what he didn't know was that this estimate was still a bit conservative.
With Lin Yan's current state, as long as there is a suitable opportunity, it is not too unbelievable to break through to the acquired state in a short period of time.
Not to mention that he can now fight against ordinary early-stage Houtian realm experts and have a certain chance of winning.
If he waits until he truly breaks through, even the strong ones in the middle stage of the acquired world may not necessarily be his opponents.
During the conversation between the two, Lin Yan was surprised to learn that Lin Tian was already engaged, and the other party was from the next village.
Looking at Lin Tian's gentle eyes, Lin Yan felt that the girl must be good. At the same time, he was also very emotional. After all, he felt that he was still a child. Who would have thought that all the friends he played with back then would be engaged to each other.
The age at which men and women get married in the Tang Dynasty is not very old, but in small border villages like this, this age is even earlier.
Lin Tian was actually getting engaged at the moment, but Lin Yan didn't react for a while.
If this continues, Lin Tian may be married when he comes back next time! Maybe this friend will have his own little friend by then!
After chatting for a while, Lin Tian stood up, took out some bottles and cans from his bag, and sprinkled them around the camp several times.
Lin Yan said curiously:
"Brother Lin Tian, what is this?" Lin Tian smiled and said:
"These are all good treasures!" He took out a black jar with some dark powder in it. Lin Yan came closer and smelled it, and a pungent smell hit his face, and it also stunk!
Seeing Lin Yan's disgusted look, Lin Tian smiled and said:
"Xiao Yanzi, this is powdered after drying the excrement of some high-level beasts. Spreading it around the camp can scare some low-level beasts so that they don't dare to approach at will." Then, he took out another one. A small earth-yellow jar introduced:
"This is realgar powder, specially used to deal with snakes, insects, rats, and ants." In addition, there are other medicinal powders, each with its own use, and there are seven or eight kinds of them.
After listening, Lin Yan had only one thought in his mind:
"Brother Lin Tian is reliable!" Lin Tian said that he couldn't sleep and asked to stay up until midnight. Lin Yan greeted him and came to replace him after a while.
The two girls, Ming Ya and Mo Li, slept in the tent. Lin Yan and Uncle Mao approached some fires, put their bags on the ground, and fell asleep.
The heat from the bonfire warmed my body, not to mention it felt a little comfortable! Nothing happened in the first half of the night. Lin Tian went to rest after changing his shift. He carefully identified the route this day for fear of taking the wrong route.
I was already tired due to my high concentration. As soon as I lay down at this moment, I fell asleep soon. Lin Yan sat cross-legged on the ground holding the black broken knife and continued to study.
"The art of cutting". Since receiving Feng Lao's guidance, he has made great progress in this area, but after all, he has not yet reached the level required by Feng Lao.
So he started studying as soon as he had time, and never relaxed at all. Along the way, he made considerable progress.
While he was practicing, he suddenly heard a subtle sound
"Rustling" sound. In fact, it was unlikely that he would have noticed it, but because he was highly concentrated at this time, his hearing was more sensitive than usual.
Lin Yan listened carefully, and then realized that the sound gradually became louder, as if something was approaching, and there were many of them.
In this Tianjue Mountain Range, no danger can be ignored. Lin Yan quickly woke everyone up, nervously on guard.
Against the backdrop of the firelight, everyone finally saw what was making these sounds. That's a bunch of spiders!
If only they were ordinary spiders, the smallest spiders in front of them were the size of fists, with bright stripes all over their bodies, and they were obviously very poisonous.
These giant spiders crawled in densely, and in an instant they surrounded Lin Yan and his party.
At this time, the powder that Lin Tian had sprinkled before had a certain effect. The spiders all stopped outside the circle formed by the powder, and did not dare to step forward for a while.
But they know that this is only a temporary measure. As the number of spiders increases, the defense line formed by this powder will eventually be broken.
At this moment, Lin Yan and the others also felt their scalps numb. Anyone who saw such a large number of spiders as big as fists or even human heads would probably not be calm.
This has nothing to do with strength, it is entirely human's instinctive fear of such things. The two girls, Ming Ya and Mo Li, have already lost their beauty. For girls, this kind of insect is what they fear the most, not to mention that this is an enlarged version, doubling the lethality!
Lin Tian said in a deep voice at this moment:
"Everyone, be careful, these are demon spiders! They are not strong individually, but they are extremely poisonous, so be careful!" When he followed Lin Zhen into the mountains before, Lin Tian had seen such things, but in small numbers.
Even then, they chose to retreat at that time. After all, this kind of thing lives in groups. Who knows whether solving a few will attract more.
As for a scene like this, it was the first time for him to see it, and all he felt at the moment was despair. Under such overwhelming numbers, their chances of escaping were slim. After all,
“The ants kill the elephant” is not just a casual statement. Lin Yan and others were very cautious after hearing this and began to think urgently about countermeasures.
But in this moment, the number of demon spiders increased a lot and began to move forward.
"No, they're going to cross that line!"
