Chapter 357 - Chapter 357: Chapter 350: The Use of Fireflies_1 (2/2)

The noise that was generated along the way was tremendous.

But real human masters, when running through the mountains, make hardly any sound.

They can deftly avoid obstacles and move swiftly through the mountains without harming a single blade of grass or tree.

Qin Niu didn’t dare to look too long at that shadowy figure.

Because such masters have extremely strong perception.

If one were to stare at their figure for a few more glances, they would immediately be sensed by the other party.

Qin Niu monitored that shadowy figure with the corners of his eyes from time to time.

When they reached the location where the jar was buried, the shadowy figure seemed to know there was a trap ahead and naturally stopped.

“It’s a pity, if we could have lured this person into the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze, we could have used the power of the Ancient Banyan Tree to eliminate this powerful enemy.”

Last time, an ambush on Old Master Huang was also detected by him.

This time it was discovered by this person again.

Where exactly is the problem?

Qin Niu thought hard, and the only possibility he could think of was that the methods used to set up the trap were too primitive.

Probably some human traces were left behind.

That’s why it was immediately seen through by the other party.

“Hmph, this little Shuangfeng Village really is full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons.”

After the person stopped, the Longsword in his hand directly slashed at the branches and twigs covered on top.

Immediately, the twigs were cut to pieces.

Qin Niu finally got a clear look at this person’s true face—it was a tall and imposing old man, at least one meter eighty-five in height.

Long white whiskers fell upon his chest.

This person had a long horse-like face.

From the sword skills he had casually demonstrated earlier, one could determine that his swordsmanship was extremely brilliant.

As for this person’s cultivation, it was definitely in the Spirit Qi Realm.

The invisible pressure he brought to Qin Niu was not something an Innate Realm powerhouse could have.

After using the sword to remove the twigs on top, the old man casually picked with his treasured sword a few times and the jar was easily picked out.

It was as if an invisible force allowed the entire jar to sit steadily on the blade.

“Rooster blood?”

The man took a sniff and was able to easily determine the traces of blood that remained in the jar’s storage ditch.

Gu Masters are extremely sensitive to various types of blood.

With just a slight sniff, they could know what blood it is.

“Friend, come out! I know you must be nearby. It’s fine if you got those Blood Spiders. No big deal. I’ll just find another way to cultivate them. If you want to learn higher Gu Control Techniques, I’m also willing to teach you.

Gu Masters in this world should be one family, not distinguishing between each other.”

The elder’s gaze swept around.

The mountains in the night were deathly still.

The elder did not receive any response, but he did not get angry.

Instead, he said lightly, “It seems you want to test my abilities. No problem, I will find you now. But rest assured, I will not harm you. We are all Gu Masters and should not be enemies.”

After finishing his words, the elder took off an Insect Bag from his waist.

“Go!”

Tens of thousands of fireflies flew out from the Insect Bag, spreading out in all directions.

Some of them blundered into the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze.

Naturally, they could not get out.

The elder stared at the Ancient Banyan Tree ahead somewhat apprehensively.

“I really didn’t expect that there would be formations in these deep mountains! Friend, I don’t know if you set up this formation or if it formed naturally?”

The elder’s tone was always calm, without the slightest hint of anger.

Such a person was the most terrifying.

Qin Niu had his twelve Blood Gu wiped out in a stroke, all taken away. If this person were truly as unconcerned and unbothered as he claimed, there would be no need for him to run into the deep mountains in the middle of the night.

He chased here because he wanted to find the person who took the Blood Gu.
