Chapter 883: The Rust Wood Bog And Acid Dart Toads

~thud~ thud~

Little Shrubby came to a stop as his paws dug into the ground, creating four long gullies in the ground.

~clack~

Lin Mu unhooked the straps and got down from Little Shrubby. Hua Yi did the same and took a minute to reorient himself after the speedy journey.

"This really was under a day… this kind of travel is simply marvelous and fast." Hua Yi couldn't help but praise.

~Grrr~

"I know it of course!" Little Shrubby replied, which Hua Yi could estimated what was said.

"The Rust Wood bog does suit it as a name. There are a lot of trees here and also some dead decaying bodies there." Lin Mu said as he looked around.

The trees were all of a medium height, but the most eye catching feature of the trees was the rusty colored fuzzy layer on them. It looked a bit creepy and would make one's skin tingle if one got too close to it.

~fizz~

"Ugh, I don't like this." Little Shrubby said as his paws started to boil the moisture in the soil.

Lin Mu furrowed his brows and looked at his boots, that had started to corrode as well. This was a bit surprising since his boots were mid grade spirit tools.

"We shouldn't stay here for long. The outer area is still fine, but the deeper you go, the stronger the corrosion gets." Hua Yi said.

He himself was floating in the air and avoided touching the soil. 

~SKREEE~

Just as he said that, a loud screeching sound could be heard coming from the bog. Lin Mu and Little Shrubby both became alert as a brown blur shot towards them.

~WOOOO~

Little Shrubby spat out a large fire ball that burned everything in its path and blocked the brown blur. 

~Sizzle~

It could now be seen that the brown blur was a liquid of some kind that had been sprayed toward them.

"Acid Dart Toads!" Hua Yi noticed.

Lin Mu had already read about the beasts and knew that they were native beasts of this area. Even though they were only at the core condensation realm, their spit was still corrosive enough to hurt and kill Nascent soul realm beasts.

~Ptui~ptui~ptui~ 

Multiple sounds were heard coming from all around Lin Mu and the others. Lin Mu furrowed his brows and waved his hand. Spirit weapons appeared all around him and his spirit sense expanded in a circular radius.

~Deng~deng~deng~

The incoming corrosive spit was blocked off by the spirit weapons all at once, and not even a single drop managed to reach them. 

~fizz~

Lin Mu heard bubbling sounds coming from some of the spirit weapons and felt his link with them weakening.

~CLANG~

A handful of the spirit tools fell to the ground lifelessly as their surfaces started to melt in a bit. The ones that were made of weaker materials had already been melted through, and holes were now seen in them.

"You were right, low grade spirit tools and weapons don't stand a chance against this." Lin Mu said as he saw the state of the weapons.

He had used a variety of weapons in blocking the attack and wanted to see the extent of the effects on different ranks of spirit tools. The high grade spirit tools and weapons were able to resist it, while the medium ones could resist it slightly, but the low grade ones were directly molten.

Lin Mu didn't mind the weapons that had been destroyed, as he had more than enough of them. 

"This is enough. Now begone!" Lin Mu said and pointed out with his hand.

~SHING~SHING~SHING~

The spirit weapons all shot towards multiple locations and soon throngs of death were heard coming from there.

~REEEEEEEEE~

Five seconds later, silence descended in the area and no more attacks came towards them. 

"That should take care of it." Lin Mu said before making a curling gesture.

~WHOOSH~

The various spirit weapons returned to his side. Some of them impaled the Acid Dart Toads that they had killed and brought them back, allowing Lin Mu to get a closer look at them.

Lin Mu briefly glanced at them before storing them along with the spirit weapons, thinking he might learn a bit more later when he was free.

"How do we get to the location of the Bile Cask Beetles from here?" Lin Mu asked.

"There is a side path that goes from the edge of the Rusty Wood Bog. Follow me," Hua Yi said and guided Lin Mu and Little Shrubby.

On the way, they were attacked a few times but different beasts, but Lin Mu defended them every time. 

"This is too bothersome." Little Shrubby said, feeling p.i.s.sed.

~ROAR!~

He raised his head and let out a thundering roar that echoed throughout the entire area. It was filled with his bloodline aura that Little Shrubby let freely flow as a warning to every beast that was in the area.

Little Shrubby had learned to contain his bloodline aura for the most part recently and kept it like that so that others did not detect him as easily. But there were times when it was more useful to just let it erupt.

~Grrr~

A few other beast cries were also heard in response to Little Shrubby's roar, but they were simply of a warning nature. Hua Yi who saw it all, could only hold his breath. The pressure exuding from Little Shrubby was a bit oppressive for him too.

'As expected… of Senior Lin Mu's tamed beast.' Hua Yi thought.

"Humph, we can go without being interrupted now." Little Shrubby said smugly.

Lin Mu could only smile and shake his head, hoping that it would be correct.

'Though there might be some beast that might not take this well.' Lin Mu thought and kept his spirit sense extended to the max so that he would know if anything came close to them.

Thankfully nothing happened, and an hour later they had successfully left the Rust Wood Bog.
