Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents Chapter 637 462: Spirit Melon Worm Covered in Chain Armor (P

"Next, we officially enter the Mount of Ten Thousand Worlds. This mountain is about five hundred zhang tall, but the terrain is complex, and the dense forests create a network that connects multiple small worlds. Inside, space faults may appear, and if we're careless, we might separate and lose contact with each other forever."

"When our group first attempted to conquer this Mount of Ten Thousand Worlds, we lost almost 40% of our team just finding a safe path."

"This ti through, you must stick close to . Do not move randomly, otherwise, if anything goes wrong, I won't be able to help you."

"Alright, I understand."

Lu Lin solemnly nodded his head.

Seeing Lu Lin's deanor, Li Yuan let out a deep breath and led him into the mountain.

After taking the third step, Li Yuan's face instantly turned ashen, and his body froze.

"Li Yuan, big brother, what's wrong?"

Lu Lin hurriedly asked.

In this Mount of Ten Thousand Worlds, Lu Lin's spiritual strength was cut apart by the omnipresent space cracks whenever he tried to release it, so he simply stopped using it to probe the surroundings. Seeing Li Yuan stop, he couldn't help but ask, while carefully observing the surroundings.

"No, it's nothing, move back, move back, retreat slowly."

Li Yuan's face quickly beca covered in a fine sheen of sweat, he spoke softly to Lu Lin while his movents remained unchanged.

"Okay."

Lu Lin agreed and retreated in the direction they had co, moving gently to avoid alerting potential monsters.

"Li Yuan, big brother, I'm safe now, you can co back."

"I—I might not be able to retreat."

"Lu Lin, if you manage to pass through the Mount of Ten Thousand Worlds, rember to give this to Captain Xiang Zhui. He will help return it to my wife and children."

Li Yuan said as a white circular jade pendant slowly floated to Lu Lin's front.

Holding the white circular jade pendant, Lu Lin was even more puzzled. What had Li Yuan seen that made him ready to say his last words just three steps into the Mount of Ten Thousand Worlds?

"Lu Lin, keep retreating, continue retreating, move slowly."

"The Spirit lon Worm's vision is limited; it can only see the first creature that appears within its view. With blocking in front of you, you're definitely safe."

"Relax, retreat slowly, take it slow."

"In a month, you can co back here to collect my remains. During this ti, don't enter the Mount of Ten Thousand Worlds from other directions; the safer the path seems, the greater the danger you might encounter later."

Li Yuan continued talking incessantly, and Lu Lin knew by this point that Li Yuan was targeted by a World Monster called a Spirit lon Worm.

Previously, Li Yuan had explained to Lu Lin that Spirit lon Worms are common creatures in various large worlds. A mature Spirit lon Worm has Class B-level strength and attacks the brain of martial artists and demon beasts by releasing an invisible wave from its mouth.

When the wave reaches its peak, a martial artist's brain becos ssily stirred like paste, heats up, and eventually explodes.

Of course, the Spirit lon Worm's thod is not ant for hunting. Their food doesn't include humans or demon beasts, only the world.

This invisible wave is simply sothing they naturally emit when consuming the world. In other words, the Spirit lon Worm never intended to attack humans or demon beasts.

"Li Yuan, big brother, just leave with . The Spirit lon Worm is only feeding; it won't care about you."

"It's useless."

Li Yuan shook his head in despair, "The Spirit lon Worm has no aggression towards humans, but the wave it emits will lock onto the first living thing that appears in its feeding area. By standing here still, I'm just slowly dying. If I retreat beyond its feeding area, the wave will suddenly intensify."

"Lu Lin, just go, let live a little longer."

"Who knows, maybe this Spirit lon Worm's feeding will last several hundred years. By then, I'll have gained."

Li Yuan spoke as if light-heartedly, yet Lu Lin saw a trace of reluctance in his eyes.

After being targeted by the Spirit lon Worm, he must have experienced regret, despair, anger, unwillingness, but no amount of those emotions were of any use.

They would only make him die a little faster.

"Wait, Li Yuan, big brother," Lu Lin suddenly thought of a question.

"This Spirit lon Worm should still be in its juvenile stage. If I kill it, wouldn't that solve the problem?"

Lu Lin's gaze finally settled about 500 ters away on a worm with a body resembling a large waterlon.

Only, the diater of this large waterlon was over two ters, and the pattern on its outer shell alternated between black and dark green, looking very much like a large waterlon.

"It's useless."

"This Spirit lon Worm isn't newly born, it's at the peak of its juvenile stage and might fully evolve into a mature form in about ten years."

"Right now, its strength is comparable to a normal Class B Spirit lon Worm; one would need at least the peak of Star Lord to have a glimr of hope to kill it."

"Star Lord Peak?"

Lu Lin was taken aback by these words.

If his guess was correct, Lu Lin's current power far exceeded the Star Lord Peak level of Ti Hu, the commander. Whether he had reached the level of Star King, Lu Lin was unsure.

But!

With such strength, killing a Spirit lon Worm should be no problem.

"Right, Star Lord Peak, its strength is comparable to our General Ti Hu of the Hu Wei Army. Do you think the two of us can kill such a powerful Spirit lon Worm?"

"Yes."

"Right, we can... Huh? What!"

Lu Lin's response left Li Yuan perplexed as he turned to scrutinize Lu Lin.

"Lu Lin, this is not sothing to joke about. You're only at the initial stage of Star Core right now, though your battle prowess is impressive, tackling so many Ding-class Furry-mouthed Insects has already surprised greatly. But this Class B Spirit lon Worm..."

"I can!"

Lu Lin's eyes burned with determination, "Li Yuan, my brother, I'm confident."

"Killing the Spirit lon Worm is imperative; otherwise, staying here would make it impossible to pass through the Mount of Ten Thousand Worlds. You can't die; you have to guide ."

Lu Lin drew out his broken knife from the storage ring with confidence as he passed by Li Yuan.

At that mont, Li Yuan indeed felt a flicker of hope in his heart.

Yet he quickly shook his head; how could it be, that was absolutely impossible.

"Li Yuan, big brother."

Lu Lin suddenly turned as he had walked a few steps away, and when Li Yuan thought he might give up, Lu Lin continued asking: "Is there anything I should be aware of when killing this Spirit lon Worm?"

"For instance, will it affect you in any way during the process?"

"No, it won't."

Li Yuan shook his head; apparently, Lu Lin was determined to give it a try.

If so, it would be better to go along with Lu Lin on this wild venture. Standing here would an living in constant fear; it would be better to be brave.

Live or die, it depends solely on Lu Lin now.

"Well, I understand. Li Yuan, big brother, don't worry. I certainly won't let you down."

Lu Lin flashed a grin at Li Yuan as he stepped closer to the Spirit lon Worm.

Due to having no hostility towards humans and demon beasts, combined with its formidable defense, the Spirit lon Worm feared no attack.

This might also relate to its intelligence, as it's still a juvenile monster.

Approaching closer, Lu Lin saw that what appeared to be a smooth and shining round shell was actually composed of scales about the size of a pinky nail, and the overall structure was sowhat akin to the chain armor worn by ancient human soldiers.

This type of armor has an advantage in effectively resisting penetration by sharp weapons and dissipating the impact and force of attacks, reducing the chance of injury.

At this mont, the Spirit lon Worm's body was covered by such dense armor.

However, Lu Lin wasn't any ordinary individual; he slowly raised his broken knife in hand.

"Ten Steps Kill."

"Wind Stop."

Under Li Yuan's unblinking gaze from afar, Lu Lin's strike unexpectedly seed to create a feeling of ti pause.

Even the countless newborn, decaying and destructive space cracks around appeared to halt slightly.
