Chapter 489: Unable To Endure The Unendurable (2/2)
Incidentally, this was in sharp contrast with Eastern Border Region and Southern Sky Region. Within these two big regions, there were many countries established by monsters. After thousands of years of development, they were at peace with humankind.
Of course this was so, otherwise, Spirit Sword Sect wouldn't have sent more than a hundred disciples to cultivate in the Savage Land—entering a mature civilization to slaughter was a big taboo within the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals. The characteristics of Savage Land also made it possible for the golden generation to speak with their 'fists' heartily. And if they were capable to directly eradicate the Savage Land from Nine Regions by means of annihilation, that was rightfully theirs, because it was their skill that did it.
According to the usual practice, the Savage Land was under the jurisdiction of Spirit Sword Sect, so everything they did within the Savage Land was considered as internal affairs. However, in reverse, it also made every step that they took in cultivating in Savage Land filled with danger. Any pa.s.sing monster might attack them, so they must remain vigilant. Previously, their gathering place where they temporarily gathered on top of a hill was actually a very rare safe zone.
At the same time, most of the monsters in the Savage Land were territorial. They clung tenaciously to their territory, not allowing any outsider to invade and not invading other territories. Thus, when the flood dragon was first provoked, he did not want to pursue. Once Ouyang Shang and the others fled from the territorial scope of Blessed Fountain, the flood dragon promptly stopped.
Therefore, Ouyang Shang found it very strange. How could w.a.n.g Lu manage to gather so many monsters, pulling them out of their nest.
”Hahaha , drawing hatred is my specialty, so it's too easy to stir up a group of mindless monsters!”
Ouyang Shang asked with interest, ”How did you do it?”
”Em, the specific method may cause you hearing discomfort, so I suggest it's better for Senior Brother to not hear it.” w.a.n.g Lu grinned, but his two rows of white teeth actually appeared slightly sinister.
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Shang was slightly shocked, but a hint of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind.
What would he do if he were in w.a.n.g Lu's position? To provoke the monsters to go beyond their territorial instinct to chase him… It was mostly due to hate of having their family killed, right? Moreover, most of the monsters that chased after him seemed to have cubs… Forget it, just like what w.a.n.g Lu said, it was better to not think about it.
”In short, thanks to your effort, we weren't wiped out. But since you have scared him with that beast tide, I'm afraid regardless of how we provoke him, the flood dragon would not easily step out of Blessed Fountain anymore.”
w.a.n.g Lu laughed again. ”I have considered this problem before, and it's not difficult to solve it. You see, the water in Blessed Fountain is not still, it always comes from somewhere. So we just need to poison its upstream and it would be easy for us to force him out.”
Ouyang Shang touched his chin. ”But common poison basically wouldn't work on the dark flood dragon who is famous for being highly poisonous, right? Let alone Blessed Fountain is his base so the water purification capacity is always there.”
”Therefore, we should not be too strict with the poison that we use, as long as it can enrage the opposite party that would be enough.”
Ouyang Shang furrowed his brows upon hearing it. ”Well, if you are not putting poison into the water, are you really thinking about throwing…”
w.a.n.g Lu let out a laugh. ”You are indeed Senior Brother Ouyang Shang, we really do have a tacit understanding. Yes, that's what I think—throwing feces into Blessed Fountain!”
”…”
”You see, we have at least eight months to clean up Blessed Fountain. During this period, apart from practicing, Junior Brothers and Sisters would also have to eat and drink, right? It's not that everyone has succeeded in training a fasting method… I think in order to ensure everyone's diet, it's better to build a farm near here. Not only would it provide sufficient fresh meat, it would also provide fecal matter, killing two birds with one stone.”
”Junior Brother, seeing how low the moral integrity that you show out, I suddenly feel a bit worried for the future of Spirit Sword Sect.”

Three days later at Blessed Fountain's dragon palace.
After experiencing the frightening beast tide, the owner of this place was recuperating. While closing his eyes and thinking about something, a slender black young dragon came in from outside the dragon palace.
”Report, father, something bad happened!”
The flood dragon opened his golden eyes and said in a deep voice, ”Those human cultivators come again to provoke? Humph, let them go.”
”But, but…”
”No buts, no matter how provocative they are, just put up with it! Human cultivators are always cunning and despicable. There's no need to trap them. As long as we guard our home, they won't have time to waste here!”
As a rare intelligent monster in Savage Land, the flood dragon had seen through the most crucial problem for the cultivators of Spirit Sword Sect—time was precious!
Unfortunately, he ultimately underestimated his opponent's tactic.
”But, but father, those humans actually poured a large amount of fecal sewage along the source of spring water that lines up here!”
”W-What did you say?”
”They throw excrement in the water!”
”... d.a.m.n it, I'll kill them all today! All armies, commence the attack! Now!”
