Chapter 49

"Lets take the Miasma-Repelling Pill and the Insect-Dispelling Pill." Chen Xun took out two of each pill and swallowed his share before giving the ox the rest.

"Moo~"

The black ox mooed and rolled its tongue out and received the pills before swallowing them.

These were purchased with spirit stones from their sect.

"This place is quite strange," Chen Xun muttered in a low voice.

It was completely different from the forests they had entered before. There was no sign of life. A silent, lifeless land. Strangely, however, was the fact that spiritual energy here was abundant.

"Moo~"

The black ox looked around vigilantly with its big eyes while constantly sniffing.

"We don't need to hurry to the Southern Dipper Mountain. Let's observe for now," Chen Xun said as he shrank his head back to hide.

He took out his maskwhich he hadnt worn for a whilefrom his chest and put it on.

"Moo!" The big black ox patted Chen Xun, asking for its mask.

"Here, wear yours." Chen Xun grinned. This was the equipment they used when they raided Old Wang's house.

"Moo~" The black ox trembled with excitement. That feeling once again!

Chen Xun then took off his disciple attire. These clothes could be considered as another layer of protection with its applied protective talisman, but it also meant revealing their identity. They couldnt afford to have their identity divulged. They didnt want that. What if it brought trouble to their doorstep?

He put on a simple linen robe he had sewn himself. It was very light and didnt constrict his movements at all. The clothes he usually wore in the sect felt like shackles compared to this simple hand-sewn robe.

"Old ox, Remain low and stay put!" Chen Xun held the ox's head with one hand. There were countless dense leaves where they were standing, providing cover.

"Moo~" The big black ox responded with understanding. It was not at all flustered.

As the day turned into night, and while the disciples of various sects were busy searching for spiritual herbs, the man and ox sat silently on a tree for a whole day without moving.

"Old ox, it should be safe here. Let's make some clothes!"

"Moo?"

"Just watch, I learned from Aunt Wang back then," Chen Xun smiled, thinking of the small mountain village. He definitely had to go back and visit in the future.

"Moo." The big black ox nodded and watched as Chen Xun climbed down from the ancient tree and discreetly picked up countless fallen leaves. It quickly joined in to help.

Half a day later, the task was accomplished. Chen Xun looked at the "auspicious robe" made of countless dry leaves and was very satisfied. He quickly put it on.

"Moo?!" The big black ox was puzzled.

Chen Xun and the black ox craned their necks in disbelief. They couldn't believe their eyes! These people just took the herbs, they took it just like that. There was no sign of any water monster emerging from the lake.

"This is impossible, absolutely impossible," Chen Xun muttered while gripping the tree trunk so tightly that the bark was peeling off.

The big black ox kept shaking its head in disbelief.

However, suddenly out of nowhere, a change seemed to be happening.

From both sides of the forest, groups of sect disciples rushed out and began battling each other. They seemed to be from the same sect from their attire. Shouts and rebukes filled the air as the two sides engaged in fierce combat.

"Damn, it's them!" Chen Xun widened his eyes, realizing the crisis. "Old ox, can you see? The danger here is not from the monsters but from people."

"Moo?" The big black ox was puzzled. With so many herbs by the lake, why risk getting into a fight with others?

"This is the wickedness of human nature," Chen Xun sighed, shaking his head. "Remember when we were deceived by those three people back then?"

"Moo!"

The big black ox's pupils constricted as it understood. It had been through many bizarre situations during its years with Chen Xun.

Suddenly another twist happened!

Right under the tree where they were hiding, a roar erupted, and a strong wind swept over them, causing their lucky attires to flail wildly in the wind, and them to eat a pile of dust.

A red figure swiftly leaped out. It resembled a red-skinned lion with long, sharp fangs, and was over ten feet long.

It was a 10th layer Qi Condensation monster and it seemed quite powerful.

Chen Xun calmly adjusted his robe, saying, "10th layer Qi Condensation monster, now thats intimidating."

"Moo!" The big black ox was eager to fight, battle intent gleaming in its eyes.

In the distance, there were continuous sounds of shock and anger as the red-skinned lion relentlessly chased the disciples who had been gathering herbs. It used its spells to wreak havoc. The people who had the herbs had no choice but to throw them away and abandon them before fleeing in various directions.

"Old ox, should we make a move? I'll pick the herbs while you hold it off." Chen Xun suggested.

"Moo!"

Two figures lightly descended from the tree, and with a faint smile on their faces, they dashed towards the lake.

Roar!

The red-skinned lion was furious. Intruders had entered its territory again, and this time, they were two strange figures covered in leaves. It had never seen anything like this before.
