C374 Anteater
C374 Anteater
Looking at Lin Long who did not seem to have suffered from any injuries, everyone was dumbstruck.
In their opinion, even if Lin Long wasn't beaten to death, he should have at least been severely injured. If they had Ninth Uncle's sharp eyes, they would be even more surprised.
"Lin Long, it seems that I have not tested your ability." Guo Xiuqi's expression was a little ugly. After he finished speaking, he once again put on a posture, and prepared to unleash his crescent-shaped force.
"Brother Xiu Qi, stop fighting, Lin Gongzi can't be any stronger." Seeing Guo Xiuqi's stance, Liu Ruolan quickly stood in front of him.
The first two times had already been enough to scare her, how could she let Guo Xiuqi make a move against Lin Long?
Seeing Liu Ruolan defending Lin Long in such a manner, how could Guo Xiuqi possibly let it go so easily? He coldly said, "Ruo Lan, quickly get out of the way!"
It looked like even if Liu Ruolan stopped me, she would still make a move.
"Enough, Xiu Qi." At this time, Ninth Uncle spoke in a low voice.
"Ninth Uncle, this …"
Guo Xiuqi still wanted to say something, but Ninth Uncle waved his hand and said, "I've already estimated Lin Long's strength, don't attack."
Hearing Ninth Uncle's words, Guo Xiuqi could only hide his attitude resentfully.
"Alright, the test ends here. Everyone, you can go." Ninth Uncle announced.
Only then did the crowd leave with astonished expressions.
When Lin Long was about to leave, the Ninth Uncle pulled him aside and asked in private, "Lin Long, what you used just now were skills related to profound energy, right?"
Just now, Ninth Uncle had clearly seen that Lin Long's protective shield had been destroyed. If not for the use of a mystical technique, it would have been impossible for him to block Guo Xiuqi's attack.
Lin Long naturally would not tell Ninth Uncle that he was cultivating the body technique, so he nodded, "Yes."
"I didn't expect that a martial skill related to profound energy would be so powerful." Ninth Uncle could not help but sigh.
"Don't you have any powerful mystical Qi people in the tribe?" Lin Long asked.
From Lin Long's point of view, there was probably no one who was strong in this area, because even if the rune apparatus were powerful, who would actually cultivate their profound energy? Furthermore, they had spent a lot of time cultivating in the area of the rune apparatus, so there was basically no one who had the time to cultivate their profound energy.
The people of Ten Thousand Beast Valley were a good example. Of course, this was also because they did not have any powerful techniques or martial skills.
"Nope." Ninth Uncle shook his head.
As expected, the answer was just as he had guessed.
The two of them chatted for a bit more before Lin Long left. Normally, Liu Ruolan would leave with him, but because of the embarrassing things that happened a moment ago, Liu Ruolan did not have the nerve to follow them.
In the next few days, although there was nothing important to invite, Lin Long stayed in the house and continued to study the rune apparatus.
In the past few days, Liu Ruolan had obviously come less often, and every time sshe entered, he would look around, as if afraid that others would see him. Lin Long could not help but feel that it was a little funny.
On the fifth day, Liu Zong came to visit.
The moment he entered, he immediately said, "Lin Long, the clan is sending someone to deal with the anteater beast tomorrow. Guo Xiuqi has called for you to go."
"Oh?"
"That Guo Xiuqi is narrow-minded. Just a few days ago, you embarrassed him, so he probably asked you to go by name in order to make you suffer. That's why you have to be careful." Liu Zong warned.
"Never mind." To be honest, with the strength of his body technique, he was not worried about anything happening.
However, he still asked, "Does he have the final say on this person's name list?"
"Yes, because he is the leader, it is not appropriate for the Ninth Uncle to interfere in such matters." Liu Zong explained.
Lin Long nodded and asked, "How strong is this anteater beast?"
"This anteater beast is stronger than the black panther and they live in groups. The reason why the clan wants to attack them is because the area they have been living in recently is too close to us. If we let them continue to develop, they will definitely become a threat to the clan." Liu Zong said.
Afterwards, he introduced the Ant Eating Beast Liu Zong in detail before leaving.
After Liu Zong left, someone came to notify him that he would gather at the plaza early in the morning to hunt for Ant Devouring Beasts.
Soon, it was the second day. When all the people who had arrived at the plaza arrived, Lin Long discovered that there were thirty people altogether. Liu Ruolan and Liu Zong was also among them.
Standing in front of the convoy, Guo Xiuqi spoke a few words before leading the group out of the clan.
Before leaving, he naturally glanced at Lin Long complacently.
Walking out of the entrance guarded by the Liu Family, they walked westward for another half an hour. After killing some ferocious beasts, they finally arrived at the place where the Ant Devouring Beasts lived.
This was a not very big mountain peak. Even from afar, Lin Long could see a few anteater beasts roaming about at the foot of the mountain.
These anteater eating beasts were very different from those in the outside world. Firstly, their bodies were a lot larger, and secondly, their tails had to grow by more than three feet. Most importantly, their mouths were only two to three inches long.
"Everyone be careful, there are quite a few of these anteater eating beasts. According to the investigation, there are at least twenty of them, so we can't force our way through. First we have to kill the outsider!"
According to Guo Xiuqi's arrangements, everyone began to ambush the Ant Eating Beasts outside.
After half a day, they finally managed to kill five or six ants.
As they had the advantage of numbers, individual anteater beasts could not pose any threat to them and were easily killed by them.
However, after killing so many anteater beasts, they were discovered. A dozen anteater beasts suddenly charged towards them at a certain time.
This was to be expected, so they did not panic. Instead, they started to fight with the Ant Eating Beasts as they had planned.
Each of the 30 people will form a small team.
As Liu Zong had a good relationship with him, he was in the same group as Lin Long. On the other hand, Liu Ruolan had requested to be with them, so Lin Long naturally did not reject.

Seeing this scene, Guo Xiuqi gnashed his teeth in hatred. However, thinking about his plans later, his heart felt a little better.
Because they had prepared in advance, these Ant Eating Beasts were not a match for these people even though they were out in groups.
Not too long later, only ten of the remaining beasts had died.
The rest of the ants noticed that something was wrong and quickly turned around to escape. The beasts here were much smarter than the Ten Thousand Beast Valley.
The group of people naturally pursued closely. They only stopped when they arrived outside a cave.
Immediately, everyone looked towards Guo Xiuqi to see what he would do. After all, they did not know the situation inside the cave.
Guo Xiuqi smiled, "We have come here to investigate this cave before, it is the nest of these Ant Devouring Beasts. Everyone, don't worry, they are not many anymore, it will not bring us much trouble."
After saying that, he paused, then looked towards Lin Long and said, "Lin Long, your protective barrier's ability is the most outstanding, so in order to avoid any injuries or injuries, you should be at the front."
Before he came here, he had already predicted that he would enter the Ant Eating Beast's nest, and he knew that there was something even more powerful inside.
