Chapter 652

Wu Yue shouldered her own simple small satchel, the corners of her mouth smiled: "All right, shall we set off?"

Beastfolk nodded, then immediately lowered its body and stretched its limbs, instantly transforming into a huge beast. The Beastfolk's furry face turned toward Wu Yue's direction, lowering its body: "Today I will bring you."

Knowing the Beastfolk already had a mate, Wu Yue also didn't stand on ceremony; with a flick of her body she leapt onto its back.

The Beastfolk darted agilely through the forest; perhaps because of the flesh pads under their feet, they made hardly any loud sound.

Huh?

As the Beastfolk's speed gradually slowed, Wu Yue suddenly noticed that the surrounding scenery seemed somewhat familiar.

Wu Yue lowered her head to look at the Beastman Warrior beneath her: "Here... have we been here before?"

The Beastfolk's large head nodded: "We've turned back to the starting point."

Wuyue:...

So did we just run this whole way for nothing?

"Herbs and precious items can be found in the surrounding forest, but if we want to obtain the most important Beast God Script, we must walk along this uphill road."

"Only on the stone walls on the side of the mountain path will the Beast God script appear; there is none in the forest on the mountain."

The shaman's voice sounded beside her, Wu Yue turned her head to look, and this old man had somehow quietly sidled up beside her without her noticing.

Wu Yue understood, but the next moment she thought: "If the Sea Snake tribe doesn't find us in the vanguard, they'll surely guess we've slipped to the rear."

The healing shaman gave a hehehe sly laugh: "No problem, no problem; our tribe's strength is inherently inferior to that of the Sea Snake tribe, so we must seize the chance while they're searching ahead to quickly obtain some Beast God script."

If we're spotted, we'll just slip away.

You, the esteemed Shaman Sir, really have no shame, do you?

Wu Yue was speechless.

The ground beneath their feet, having been trampled year after year, was already flat and hard.

On the side cliff there were also irregular depressions.

Are these the stone walls that have been cut away?

Wu Yue looked at those varying-depth indentations and asked.

The healing shaman nodded: "These shallower ones were cut out a few years ago, while these deeper ones were cut out last year."

As time passes, these Beast God stone walls will gradually recover.

Wu Yue gasped, she reached out her small hand to touch the cold stone wall, and this cliff actually had self-repairing ability.

Shaman Sir!

As the two spoke, a sudden excited shout came from the Beastman Warrior ahead.

The healing shaman and Wu Yue exchanged a glance, both unable to suppress a start: Could the Beast God script have appeared?

They hurriedly urged the Beastman Warrior beneath them to run toward the direction of the sound.

Is it the Beast God script?

The healing shaman's voice was tinged with barely concealed excitement.

The Beastman Warrior who had just shouted, his face flushed, nodded repeatedly: "Yes... yes, it's Beastfolk script, the Beast God script has appeared on this stone wall."

The bluish-brown stone wall appeared to have been carved by some sharp weapon, and a line of twisted reddish-brown pictographs emerged on its smooth surface.

An ancient, mysterious aura suddenly washed over them; the instant the characters entered her sight, Wu Yue felt her shamanic power surge, and her body began rapidly absorbing the ambient stray shamanic energy without any cultivation.

She drew a deep breath, her eyes blazing as she gazed at the reddish-brown characters on the stone wall: "How miraculous."

The healing shaman laughed heartily as he drew a sharp bone dagger from the Beastman's hide pouch; the bone dagger, white as snow and made from some unknown beast's bone, glimmered with a cold light.

The healing shaman actually pressed the bone dagger into the stone wall, began to carve a square around the Beast God script, and cut that piece of wall away.

The Beastman Warrior who had been waiting nearby rushed forward, his hands cushioned by precious hide, and carefully received the mysterious stone slab, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

Since the current Grand Shaman successfully became Grand Shaman, their tribe had gone a long, long time without obtaining any Beastfolk script stone walls.

This time it was practically a blessing from the Beast God.

"Wow! This herb is so precious, the system mall price is outrageously high; if I gather more and sell it to the system, I'll later earn a substantial points reward, hehe."

Wu Yue slung her small hide pack over her shoulder and cheerfully searched the forest above the road.

Should one say it's no wonder this is the sacred mountain of the Beast God world?

The precious medicinal herbs here are simply too many; Wu Yue felt so delighted she seemed to float.

"Beast God, wow... wow, there's actually another piece!"

"Shaman... ah!!!"

The Beastfolk's joyful voice drew everyone's attention, but the next instant that voice full of delight turned into a shrill scream.

Wu Yue, who was gathering herbs in the forest beneath the Beastman, turned grim, flicked her hand and tossed out a talisman; the greenish shamanic energy shot like a beam to the screaming Beastman's side and wrapped him up.

Only then did the crowd see what was before them, and they all gasped, stepping back in unison.

The mountain path ahead had already been occupied by several huge pythons; they had likely been hiding in the trees of the forest, and now they were extending their heads from the canopy.

And the Beastman Warrior who had just screamed was now convulsing on the ground, his body bearing two pitch‑black blood holes, as if he had been pierced through by some sharp object.

At that moment, a massive snake head hovered above the Beastman, coldly staring at him; its sharp fangs dripped fresh red blood downward, which quickly turned into a deep black‑purple.

This giant python is actually poisonous!

Wu Yue made a split‑second decision, lashing out with a greenish whip that coiled around the wounded, twitching Beastman and dragged him back.

With a wave of her hand, the greenish energy that had just been wrapping the Beastman turned into mist and slowly seeped into his body.

The blood in the Beastman's wounds visibly turned bright red before their eyes; before the healing shaman could finish his praise, he stared agape as the wounds seemed to be smoothed away, vanishing instantly from his body.

If it weren't for the two deep punctures the beast's fangs had made in his hide armor, everyone would have thought they were hallucinating.

Wu Yue's face turned slightly pale, and her body swayed a little.

The Beastman behind her, perceptive, stepped forward, his massive beast head pressing against her body as he let out a low growl and lay down.

"Please hurry up and get on; those Sea Snake tribe Beastman warriors are very strong, we can't beat them."

Seeing her clothing worn out to the point that she seemed to need to move slowly, the healing shaman, taking tiny quick steps with his short legs, walked up and said: "Are you Sea Snake Tribe wanting to start a war with our Kuma Tribe? You actually sneak-attacked and injured our tribespeople!"

Damn it, I'll definitely tell on him when I get back, and have his great shaman kill these few long worms.
