Gods: Start with Goblins

Lodan laughed sarcastically.

"Is he angry because of what we said and planning to kill people to steal the treasure?"

The man said nothing, but launched a brutal attack on them, and each move was aimed at their vitals, obviously intending to take their lives.

Luo Dan's expression also became much more serious, and his eyes were indescribably cold.

"Since you are so unkind, we will not show you mercy!"

After saying that, he activated his magic circle and started to deal with the man.

The man was inadvertently hit by the magic circle while hiding, and he was very surprised.

"You are obviously just a magic array master, why can you attack people?"

Logically speaking, aren't formations meant to trap people?

Luo Dan sneered, with a hint of arrogance in his eyes.

"That's because you are blind and short-sighted. Today I will let you see that formations can not only trap people, but also kill people!"

After saying that, he gathered his spiritual energy upwards, forming a killing array. The man barely dodged it and swallowed his saliva, his eyes slightly tense.

He never expected that a formation master could be so aggressive, not to mention that there was a beastmaster and even a demon from the demon clan next to him.

"Don't you feel ashamed for hanging out with the demons?"

Luodan ignored this verbal attack and focused on dealing with him.

Just as the two sides were fighting, a beast roar suddenly came from not far away. This roar was accompanied by a huge fluctuation of spiritual power, and it was obviously not an ordinary roar.

The two men stopped their attacks almost at the same time and looked towards that end.

Then they saw a figure approaching from afar. It was a spirit beast, running towards them. The spirit beast was injured, and its fur was tangled with blood, but its eyes were full of hatred and anger, and it ran back in a hurry.

It looked at these people very vigilantly, and at the same time looked at the spiritual tree it had been guarding. Sure enough, the spiritual fruit on it had disappeared.

The moment it saw the spiritual fruit, the spiritual beast puffed its hoof hard, appearing extremely angry. Then, it snorted heavily through its nostrils and looked at the group of people with hatred.

Luo Dan's eyes flashed.

"Oh no! This spirit beast is probably the guardian beast of the spirit fruit. It has lost its temper after discovering that the spirit fruit is missing. Even though it is seriously injured, we may not be its opponent. It is best to leave immediately!"

After all, the guardian beast is quite powerful. If they fight to the death, both sides will suffer.

When the man saw the guardian beast, he shrank his neck and felt a little scared.

He had spent a lot of effort to lure this spiritual beast away from the mountain, just for this moment to steal the spiritual fruit. He didn't expect that there was a group of people here. His action was delayed, and the spiritual beast ran back.

The spirit beast must be very angry with him now.

He was alone, and there were so many people in front of him. He rolled his eyes, and immediately a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes. He walked forward and pretended to be close to them.

"Sir, we are facing a formidable enemy. Why don't we form an alliance first and get rid of this guardian beast together before we finish our business."

Luo Dan knew very well that this man was evil, but he still pretended to agree.

When they were fighting the guardian beast together, the man wanted to backstab Rodan, but Rodan was alert and dodged immediately, causing the man to fall into the sight of the guardian beast.

One of them failed to dodge and was swallowed by the guardian beast's bloody mouth. In just a moment, the man was swallowed to the bones and the weapon in his hand fell to the ground.

Seeing this scene, no one could laugh, which shows that this spirit beast is really not weak.

"Even though there are only three of us left, we absolutely cannot give up."

Ye Man spoke with indescribable calmness, and was also cheering up the entire group.

Luodan said nothing, but there was already fighting intent in his eyes as he looked at the spirit beast.

"In all the following battles, follow my command and cooperate with me!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he exuded the aura of a leader, and no one dared to disobey him.

The other two had no objections and seemed to regard him as their backbone. Then, Luodan flew into the air first and cast a magic circle.

The power of this formation was obviously stronger than before. The circle of light expanded step by step until it covered the entire spirit beast with some space left. However, Luodan and the other two were not in the formation and were just watching.

"Right now, Li Ruo, start the magic attack, attack its eyes!"

No matter whether it is a good person or an animal, the fatal points are always the same: heart, abdomen, and eyes.

"it is good."

Li Ruo's reaction was swift and decisive. With a flick of her finger, the demonic energy condensed into an invisible arrow, which she aimed at the spirit beast's eyes and shot without hesitation. The spirit beast tried to escape after sensing the danger, but it did not expect to be trapped in an exquisite formation in an instant.

Although the spirit beast had great power, enough to forcefully break through the formation, it only took a second or two for Li Ruo's arrow to reach the target. The arrow pierced through the spirit beast's eyelid at an astonishing speed and pierced deeply into its eyeball.

"Roar!" The spirit beast let out a shrill and painful scream, its voice full of pain and anger. This sudden attack made it feel extremely uncomfortable, and the blood flowing from its eyes made it look even more miserable.

Luo Dan stood aside, watching the scene indifferently, without any mercy or sympathy. She quickly turned around and gave a new order to Ye Man: "Ye Man, use your magic now to weaken its power."

Ye Man nodded to show that she understood. She took a deep breath and began to quickly form seals with her hands. Her magic power gradually gathered, forming a dazzling ball of light, and then flew towards the spirit beast. The ball of light exploded in the air, releasing a strong energy fluctuation, which instantly reduced the spirit beast's defense.

Seeing this, Li Ruo gathered her magic energy again and prepared to launch the next round of attack. She knew that although the spirit beast was injured, its strength should not be underestimated. Only by continuously attacking could she ensure that she could eventually defeat it.

The battle is still going on, but Li Ruo and Luo Dan have already demonstrated their excellent coordination and fighting skills. They know that only by uniting as one can they defeat the powerful enemy in front of them.

"Ye Man, now is the time to take action. Use your pet to attack it. You don't have to bite it to death, just cause it some trouble."

Luo Dan knew that with the difference in strength between the two sides, it was impossible to fight to the death, but it was not a problem to cause a little trouble.

Ye Man understood, and immediately released her spirit beast and gave orders. The pet quickly flew towards the huge spirit beast.

Although Ye Man’s pets are not as powerful as others, they are more numerous and more difficult to deal with.

In addition, sometimes there are blind spots in the field of vision and the spirit beasts cannot see it at all.

Ye Man commanded the pet to pounce on it and bite it, and the pet used its sharp teeth to bite through its skin.

The pain in the spirit beast's eyes had not yet subsided, and the pain in its body came at once, making it extremely irritable. It kept stomping its feet on the spot and even shaking its body, as if trying to shake the beast pet off its body.

But the pets did not move on the mountain. No matter how the spirit beast shook its body, they remained entangled with it as always.

The roar of the spirit beast became more and more shrill. It was not pain, but a dense and tingling feeling, like being bitten by ants.

No matter human or animal, they simply cannot endure this kind of long-term torture. Although it does not endanger their lives, it is extremely mentally tormenting.

"Success."

Seeing all this, Ye Man smiled and was very happy.

"Brother Luo, thanks to your good idea, we have trapped this spirit beast and it can no longer do anything to us."

Li Ruo also rushed over at this time.

"If this spiritual beast is skinned and its tendons are removed, it should be able to sell for quite a bit of money. This thing can be sold at a high price outside. Mr. Luo, since it is your contribution, this spiritual beast should belong to you."

Lodan waved his hand.

"No, I can't solve so many problems by myself. You also have abilities, and we should share this spirit beast." The other two hesitated for a moment, but still did not say anything to refuse. The temptation brought by a high-level spirit beast cannot be easily rejected.

This spiritual beast has developed intelligence and can understand their conversation.

When the spirit beast learned that this group of greedy humans actually planned to skin and bone it in exchange for a large amount of money, and had even begun to distribute the stolen money, it was so angry that it trembled all over. It could not bear this feeling of betrayal and insult, and its heart was filled with hatred for the humans. However, because it was currently in a difficult situation and its power was restrained, it could not directly fight back against these humans.

At this moment, Luo Dan and the others suddenly heard a sharp and tender cry, like a child crying. They looked around, trying to find the source of the sound. Soon, they realized that the sound came from the trapped spirit beast.

The voice of the spirit beast was full of grievance and pain. It cried, "Why did you treat me like this? You were wrong from the beginning. You broke into my manor without permission. I have guarded this spirit herb for hundreds of years, but your little fox stole it and ate it as soon as it came. You humans are despicable, and now you want to skin me and pull out my tendons... Woo woo woo, my life is so miserable..."

"A talking spirit beast, Brother Luo, it seems that it has been practicing for quite a long time. If it is sold, the price will definitely be higher."

Ye Man stroked her chin, and after being surprised, she came to this conclusion.

The spirit beast was stunned for a moment, and the next second its huge body suddenly fell to the ground and rolled around.

"Ahhh, you despicable human race, you are really too much. You actually said these words in front of me. Wuwuwu, okay, okay, I admit defeat. I will never provoke you again. I will leave now, okay? Please don't kill me."

"It's not easy for me to cultivate to this age, and I have never hurt anyone at will. If you hadn't taken my spiritual fruit this time, I wouldn't have attacked you. I didn't expect you to turn the tables and try to kill me."

"Wow, is there any justice in this world? I discovered this spiritual tree a hundred years ago. It was already dying at that time. In order to make it bear fruit, I handled it carefully, kept looking for spiritual springs, and caught insects for it day after day."

"I have waited so long until today. What have I done wrong? You have taken away the fruit. Are you going to let me go too?"

"No matter what, it is the fruit of my hard work. Shouldn't you be grateful to me?"

Hear those accusatory words, hear those tragic pasts.

Luo Dan and the others couldn't help but curl their lips slightly and laughed. After all, if it was true as the spirit beast said, it was quite miserable.

When the fruits were about to mature after hundreds of years, they got there first and in the end, they picked all the fruits. No wonder the spirit beast was upset.

What the spirit beast said is right. Anyone would be angry if this happened to them.

"So this isn't wild, but something you've painstakingly cultivated for hundreds of years."

Luo Dan said something ambiguous, and the spirit beast nodded quickly.

"Yes, yes, now you know how difficult it is for me. It's fine if you took the spiritual fruit. I won't bother with you. Just let me go. Considering my hard work in raising it, can't you give me a way out?"

Luo Dan smiled, and the other two were waiting for his opinion.

He felt that this spiritual beast was in a difficult situation, so he decided to let it go.

"Let it go. This spirit beast has a spirit, and it can be considered as accumulating some blessings."

Although the other two felt it was a pity, they still listened to Luodan's advice.

“No problem, Brother Luo, if it weren’t for you, we would have died long ago. This spirit beast was originally arranged for you. It was killed wantonly, and you will handle it.”

Ye Man was the first to express her opinion, with a sweet smile on her face.

There was no sign of discontent on Li Ruo's face.

"That's what I think too, Mr. Luo. If you want to release it, just let it go. As the saying goes, God has a benevolent heart. It may be a chance to encounter such a spiritual beast."

Ye Man raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Ruo with a teasing look.

"Oh, you are a demon, but you also understand some Buddhist principles. It's really rare."

Li Ruo seemed very proud and puffed out his chest.

"As a demon who will bear the fate of peaceful coexistence between demons and humans in the future, of course the more I learn the better, so that I won't be afraid of having nothing to say when I debate with scholars in the future. I am a demon who is knowledgeable and likes to learn!"

Luo Dan and Ye Man were both amused by him, but they didn't mean to laugh at him. Ye Man was actually quite impressed.

"This is the first time I see someone like you fighting for your beliefs. Well, keep going. Even though I can't help you, I will definitely support you!"

------

Li Ruo suddenly felt a little shy. He scratched the back of his head and thanked him awkwardly.

"Thank you."

When the spirit beast learned that it had been released, its first reaction was disbelief.

"You, you really plan to let me go, aren't you lying to me?"

Luo Dan tilted his head and spoke in a faint voice.

"Why, you don't want to? If you don't want to be released, I can also arrest you now?"

"No, no, no, no, I'm leaving now, right away, thank you, thank you!"

After receiving several thanks in succession, the spirit beast ran away.

It seemed as if he was afraid that they would change their minds, and also afraid that there was some trap behind this.

Ye Man's pet watched the spirit beast run away and couldn't help but sigh. After all, they had just gnawed and bitten it, and drank some blood. It was indeed the blood of a big spirit beast, and the spiritual energy contained in it was truly amazing.

If their owner hadn't stopped them, they would have swallowed it.

Ye Man knew that it was natural for the strong to prey on the weak in nature, and she also saw the sadness of her several pets. After taking them back, she comforted them well.

"Okay, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Are you still worried about not being able to feed you? Let's go back to the spirit beast space?"

After saying that, he turned over his sleeves and put them back.

"Brother Luo, now that the trouble has been resolved, let's go first."

"it is good."

Several people turned around and continued on their way.

Luodan held Xiaobai in his arms, and when he looked down at Xiaobai, there was a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

"Good, after you digest the spiritual energy, I hope you can give me a surprise."

Ye Man heard these mumblings and quickly stepped forward to agree.

"After hearing these words, Luo Dan's anxiety was slightly relieved. He looked at the little white fox in front of him that was absorbing the essence of the spiritual fruit, with deep expectation and trust in his eyes.

"Thank you for your good words. I also believe that Xiaobai is not an ordinary spirit beast." Luo Dan said in a deep voice, his voice full of determination and confidence.
"Since it has been able to protect this spiritual herb for hundreds of years, it means that its opportunity is extraordinary. Once it absorbs the power of the spiritual fruit, it will definitely show amazing changes."

Luo Dan recalled his experiences with Xiao Bai, and his heart was filled with emotion. From the initial unfamiliarity and vigilance to the current trust and dependence, Xiao Bai has become an indispensable part of his life. He hopes that Xiao Bai can become stronger, and that the bond between them can become deeper.

"To reach a higher level in the future is not only my expectation, but also Xiaobai's expectation." Luo Dan said with a smile, his eyes flickering with vision and yearning for the future, "I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to create our own glory."

"It doesn't matter. Compared to this, I hope Xiaobai can be safe and sound."

After saying this, Luo Dan turned around and looked at the busy people, his eyes full of gratitude and satisfaction. He believed that with their joint efforts, the future would be even better.

Since we were walking and chatting at the same time, there was no stiffness or tension in the atmosphere, it was just like going out for an outing.

However, before he could finish his happy words, Li Ruo realized something was wrong. (End of this chapter)
