Legendary Son-in-Law: The Man with Poison Talismans

In this way, Lin Mu didn't need to break his invisibility and become invisible again. When the monsters passed by him, they didn't even glance at him and just kept pushing forward.

But there are too many small monsters.

Moths, bats, Zuma statues, and Zuma guards surged in from different directions, surrounding the divine beast in the middle, as it breathed out a burst of flame.

Monsters surged forward from all sides. The Zuma statue stabbed the divine beast in the side with its halberd, the Zuma guard smashed the divine beast on the back with its hammer, the Zuma archer shot an arrow into the divine beast's shoulder from a distance, and the wedge moth smeared a mouthful of sticky mucus on the divine beast's head.

The mythical beast's health bar began to drop.

-13, -17, -25...

Although each hit doesn't deal much damage, the sheer number of them makes the rate at which health drops visibly. The 2 points of health regeneration per second are simply not enough to sustain the damage, and the health bar slowly dwindles, quickly dropping to two-thirds of its original value.

Lin Mu remained calm, casting healing spells and group healing spells on the divine beast in turn, with white light shining one after another above its head.

Healing spell landed, +1, +1, +1...

A group healing spell was cast, and a white light rippled around the divine beast, instantly restoring 24 health points, followed by a slow recovery.

+3, +3, +3...

This is the combined effect of a healing spell that heals for 1 point per second and a group healing spell that heals for 2 points per second.

If you add the divine beast's own recovery speed of 2 points per second, it can recover a total of 5 points of health per second.

But that's still not enough. The monsters' attack frequency is too fast. A bunch of monsters attack at the same time. The damage numbers that pop up above the divine beast's head in a second are far more than 5 points. The health bar is still decreasing, just a little slower than before.

Lin Mu stared at the bloodline that was still sliding down for two seconds, and did some mental calculations.

The mana consumption was high, the recovery was slow, and he couldn't hold out. So he simply stopped and stopped wasting mana potions.

If the divine beast dies, you can just summon it again. Anyway, the divine beast will be fully healed when it is summoned again.

Just enough to draw the fire of the smaller monsters.

He looked away and turned his attention back to the wedge moths.

The wedge moth can break hiding places and it can secrete sticky secretions, so keeping it around is a potential hazard.

He threw out several Soul Fire Talismans at the Wedge Moth infected with the Red Poison. With the Red Poison's 7x damage bonus, each talisman dealt more than 500 damage.

Furthermore, Lin Mu is now throwing talismans much faster than before, one after another, with flames condensing at his fingertips, leaving his hand, and exploding, with intervals of less than half a breath.

The Wedge Moth has only 2200 HP, and it takes four or five fire talismans to kill one. The corpse of the Wedge Moth then explodes into a cloud of poisonous mist.

He stood by the wall, like firing shots one by one in a shooting range, clearing out the wedge moths he could see one by one. The sound of fluttering wings in the darkness in the distance gradually thinned out, and even the spitting sounds of horned flies spitting out bats became much less frequent.

At the same time, he kept glancing at the divine beast's health bar out of the corner of his eye.

When it was down to its last skin, Lin Mu raised the Dragon Pattern Sword, pointing the tip at the location of the divine beast, and with a thought, he...

Summon divine beasts.

The divine beast's body suddenly exploded, turning into golden specks of light, which then gathered, expanded, and condensed again in the same spot. In just two breaths, a brand-new, fully-healthy divine beast stood once more in the center of the monster horde, the flames above its head burning even brighter than before.

The surrounding monsters were stunned for a moment, as if they didn't understand how the target, who had been blown up, could suddenly be fully healed again, but they quickly surrounded it again, and came at it with a halberd, a hammer, and an arrow.

The mythical beast's attacks were formidable, and monsters frequently fell at its feet.

Unfortunately, its fire breath can only hit targets within two body lengths in front of it, and its area-of-effect attack efficiency is nowhere near that of the skeletons that can now wear equipment and use crescent blades and electric attacks.

Meanwhile, the skeleton was lurking around in the relatively spacious corner, trying to assassinate the Rainbow Demon Lord. The white light on the Dragon Slayer Blade kept flashing, and the Lord's health bar was still decreasing.

And so, Lin Mu hurriedly persisted for another ten minutes or so.

The mythical beast exploded and was summoned again, then exploded again, while the skeleton lurked in the corner, relentlessly slashing at the cult leader.

The number on the empty Spirit Gathering Bead on his belt went from tens of thousands to a full 100,000, then he replaced it with a new one to continue accumulating experience.

He didn't know how many bottles of magic potions he had drunk, nor did he remember how many fire talismans he had cast. Just as he was mechanically casting fire talismans, the Rainbow Demon Lord finally let out a short roar, his massive body suddenly stiffened, and then he fell face down to the ground with a thud.

Experience gained: 500000

The five empty spirit gathering beads, each worth 100,000, were instantly filled in the Qiankun Bag.

Golden light exploded from the cult leader's corpse, scattering gold coins, potions, and equipment all over the ground, gleaming in the firelight.

But there were still too many small monsters around, so Lin Mu didn't have time to look at them much.

But the skeleton didn't stop after defeating the leader. He freed up his hands, picked up the Dragon Slayer sword, turned around, and charged into the monster horde.

It swept across the blade, the arc of the crescent-shaped slash cutting along the ground, sweeping past four or five small monsters in one strike.

-870, -912, -927...

Chapter 232 High Magic Blood Set

At the same time, tiny blue arcs of electricity exploded on the blade, the current crackling and surging through the monsters, and a series of red characters floated above the heads of the smaller monsters.

-67, -72, -79.

Several bats were instantly charred by the electric current.

The divine beast lowered its body again and spewed out a mouthful of flame, burning the two Zuma statues at the front, causing them to retreat repeatedly.

Lin Mu no longer had to worry about these crazy little monsters.

But he still took out some medicine powder and sprinkled a few more handfuls of red and green poison into the pile of monsters.

Wait for the poisonous fog to explode and spread layer by layer among the monsters, enveloping the last struggling monsters in green and red light.

Only then did he stealthily retreat to a corner, squat down next to the cult leader's corpse, and begin rummaging through it.

He put the gold coins, large potions, blessing oil, and two random teleportation scrolls into his Qiankun bag.

He picked it up again and found it was a thin, long chain. He took it out and examined it.

[White Tiger Tooth Necklace, Magic Dodge 20%, Taoist Magic 1-3, Luck +2, Requires Taoist Magic 11]

It was even more lustrous than the one around his neck, and had 2 more points of Taoist magic limit.

Without hesitation, Lin Mu took off the old necklace and put on the new one, and his Taoist skills increased slightly.

He rummaged through the items again and found a bracelet, a wide, reddish-gold bracelet that felt warm and smooth to the touch, with three deep blue gemstones gleaming coldly in the firelight.

【Three-Eyed Bracelet, Defense 1-3, Magic Defense 0-2, Taoist Magic 1-6, Requires 22 Taoist Magic】

It has 2 more points of defense, 2 more points of magic resistance, and 1 more point of Taoist magic than the pair of three-eyed bracelets he has, making it a top-tier item.

He took off one of the old bracelets and put on a new one, which increased his Taoist skill limit by 1 point.

He took out the remaining items one by one and found that most of them were useless.

For example, that neatly folded armor was heavy to the touch, with exquisite workmanship. The metal patterns on the shoulder armor gleamed with a faint blue luster in the firelight, clearly indicating it was a high-quality item.

He flipped it over and glanced at the attributes.

【Holy War Armor, Defense 5-15, Magic Defense 4-10, Attack 1-5, Requires Level 40】

Defense, magic resistance, and attack are all increased by 3 points compared to normal.

Unfortunately, it was a female warrior's outfit, and he was neither a warrior nor a woman. He could only shake his head, fold it up, and put it into his storage bag to sell later.

He paused halfway through folding the fold.

Looking at the holy war sword, he thought of Gu An again... no, now she should be called Gu Qingyi. He wondered if she was doing well.

Back at the Woma Temple, she mentioned that equipment could be redesigned at great expense.

He looked down at the Holy War Armor in his hand, then thought of the Heavenly Demon Armor deep inside his Qiankun Bag that even a skeleton couldn't wear, and a thought suddenly popped into his mind.

If the style could be changed, could the skull's Demon Armor also be modified to suit its current form and gender? Could it be changed from something unwearable to something wearable?

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. He carefully folded the Holy War Armor and placed it separately in a corner of his Qiankun Bag, alongside the Heavenly Demon Armor. He planned to ask around in Mengzhong if there were any shops that could do this kind of work.

Then he pulled out a necklace with a thin chain and a multi-faceted, colorful crystal spiky pendant. The pendant was made of red, orange, green, and blue gemstones that were interwoven and were slightly warm to the touch, as if it had just been picked up from a fire.

[Demonic Blood Necklace, Attack 2-2, Magic 1-6, Requires Level 33].

He raised an eyebrow slightly, picked up more, and sure enough, found a matching bracelet and ring nearby.

[Demonic Blood Bracelet, Taoist 0-1, Magic 0-3, Requires Level 33]

[Demonic Blood Ring, Attack 1-3, Taoist Skill 1-0, Magic 0-3, Requires Level 33].

All three pieces are top-tier, each adding 3 points to the maximum magic power compared to the ordinary ones.

Lin Mu picked up the ring and twirled it around, secretly marveling at it.

The Blood Demon Set was originally something that was highly sought after by mages.

Wearing the three-piece set increases your maximum health by 125 points.

For a level 33 mage, who originally had a pitiful 146 HP, wearing this set would double that.

Even without wearing the full set, wearing just one piece can add 25 HP, significantly increasing the margin for error.

If this were put at an auction house, people would be scrambling to buy it even if the starting price was set high.

The rest are some +1 and +2 Zuma equipment and +2 and +3 Woma equipment.

There are also a few weapons with one or two extra points to their main attributes; they would actually be decent pieces of equipment if placed in the market.

Any one of these items can sell for tens or hundreds of gold coins, and if you encounter a buyer in a hurry, the price can go up even further.

But Lin Mu's standards have risen, and he no longer cares about these minor upgrades. He glanced at the items that didn't offer any useful upgrades and casually tossed them into a corner of his Qiankun bag.

After picking up the items, Lin Mu thought of something, and then, with excitement, he squatted down and used the Dragon Pattern Sword to lift the loincloth with the word "Demon" written on it at the cult leader's waist.

Last time, he found a damaged Qiankun bag here, which contained many good things.

He flipped the dragon-patterned sword left and right, but there was no large lump of stuff, only that pair of red underwear that had never worn out.

But still not convinced, he ran his fingers around the cult leader's waist again, finding nothing but rough skin and bloodstains on the belt.

It seems the first reward pouch was indeed a first-kill reward; subsequent kills only yielded regular drops.

He withdrew his hand, dusted off his palm, and gave up hope.

While he was dawdling and searching, the two summoned creatures had already cleared out most of the surrounding monsters.

The mythical beast trotted over from the corner with its short, stubby legs, making a gurgling sound in its throat, as if it were asking for praise.

After delivering the final blow, the skeleton returned from afar, carrying the Dragon Slayer sword. The dark red light on the sword flickered on and off. Standing beside Lin Mu, the flames in its eye sockets danced quietly.

It has to be said that skeletons are much more efficient at clearing monsters than mythical beasts.
