The divine lightning within the lightning zone can break all curses and illusions.
If you get your hands on this, it's far superior to V5's laboratory.
Netero's hope was this: only by obtaining the items could he continuously bring back the treasures of the Dark Continent.
However, this idea still needs strong support.
Just as Tiger Talisman said, the Stone Tiger Clan was surrounded by the Drywood Clan and the Wandering Clan, and the giant hand of the abyss in the distance also made the Stone Tiger Clan feel very scared.
Therefore, simply having the idea to enter the distant lightning zone is not enough.
After getting a general idea of the situation, the group realized they would definitely be staying with the Shi Hu clan tonight.
However, Shi Hu did not invite them to stay for a meal.
There's no way around it; the stone tiger clan eats stones, but humans can't. They couldn't possibly eat a belly full of stones.
Little Stone Tiger, on the other hand, got along well with Kansai, and both of them seemed to be having a good time.
As Qiduo watched the two leave together, he slapped his forehead and said, "Didn't they have even the slightest bit of caution?"
"Haha, I think it's pretty good, it looks quite interesting." Fu Long laughed. Guan Xi is not a bad guy, and as a tiger, making friends with tigers should be the right thing to do, right?
Back inside, this place used to belong to a Stone Tiger tribe, but the whole family had died in a battle with the Drywood tribe, so the house was now empty.
"What are your plans?" Qi Duo asked Jin.
Jin narrowed his eyes and said, "I don't have any plans. Going to the Lightning Zone is something we definitely have to do. That's your mission, so don't follow me around aimlessly."
Jin's words also made Qi Duo very angry. What did she mean by running around with you? Why can't you just come with us?
Fu Long chimed in at the opportune moment, saying, "I'm definitely going to the Thunder Zone. After all, it's not just the Hope you've mentioned. I remember the New World Chronicles also mentioned that there's a temple there, right?"
If Fu Long had seen the temple's records before, he wouldn't have thought of anything.
But now he has obtained the items from two temples, and he is still missing this one, so he must go and take a look.
For Fu Long, the items in the three temples are the key to unlocking the forest beneath the World Tree, and he cannot afford not to take them.
Jin looked at Fu Long, narrowed his eyes, and was clearly thinking about something else.
However, Qi Duo said, "The Twelve Zodiacs will retreat after they find what's in the Lightning Zone, since our main objective is to bring back hope."
It was clear that Qiduo was somewhat disappointed.
"That's good. Of course, I need to apply to use Hope, since I'll be bringing some things back from the Dark Continent, and those things need to be tested."
Fu Long now has quite a few good things in his possession.
Especially the pills he refined himself, but these cannot be taken yet, and he hasn't given them to Billy.
After all, no one can say for sure whether there are any bad curses or anything like that on it, so it still needs to be tested before it is used. This is also a big deal for Fu Long.
"No problem, we owe you a lot for your help this time. We'll let you use it if you need it," Kito said after exchanging glances with the Zodiac members.
With all twelve members agreeing, it meant that the Hunter Association had made a simple deal with Fu Long.
That's pretty good. Fu Long smiled too. For him, this deal was a win.
He didn't really trust either Dogman or V5's lab, worried that something might disappear while they were checking it.
The Hunter Association, on the other hand, doesn't have much of a problem.
Moreover, he was in contact with high-ranking members of the association, which is the main point.
Speaking of which, now that Muleina is dead, Dogman's side can be considered to be developing independently.
I don't know how effective it will be, but I should go and check it out when I have the chance.
Chapter 493 Flames with Wine
After a night, Fu Long and his companions decided to leave Shi Hu's village. After all, they were on their doorstep, so they had to be careful.
If the Stone Tiger clan gets unhappy, they might launch a siege, and most of them would probably be wiped out.
Although the mountain god temple is now open and sub-talents can be used at any time, the best approach is still to avoid conflicts.
Little Stone Tiger was still a little reluctant to part with it, after all, it was the first time he had made a friend outside of the Stone Tiger clan.
Kansai was a little reluctant to leave, but he had no choice but to go.
I don't know what the two of them did yesterday, but they seemed to have a mutual respect for each other.
Fu Long was speechless. It was quite surprising that Guan west, such a thoughtless guy, had this side to him.
After leaving Shihu Village, we first returned to the small hill in Hupao Plain to retrieve the Mountain God Temple, and then began to explore Hupao Plain.
The ore is the main thing. The only good thing right now is that the Stone Tiger clan here has been notified that they will not attack them.
This is a pretty good thing; all you need to do is focus on finding minerals.
After spending seven days on the Tiger Spring Plain, the group finally found a small hill to rest on.
The past few days have been quite fruitful, with more than a dozen kinds of ores in hand. Among them, a piece of blood-red scarlet ore has become the focus of everyone's attention.
Scarlet ore is one of the materials used in alchemy. It is said to be extremely hard and does not melt at high temperatures.
In other words, ordinary methods won't work if you want to refine it.
V5 has one of these items. That piece was passed down from a long time ago. It was probably brought out by people who entered the Dark Continent in the past.
It is said that many methods were tried, but the final results were not ideal. The powder could not be dissolved at all, and since it could not be dissolved, it could not be used anymore.
Therefore, this stone was of no use to the Hunter Association, so they threw it to Fu Long.
"Ding! Tiger Spring Plains discovered. Reward: one-tenth of Super Gold Coins."
Okay, this is the ninth one. Fu Long is happy. He's about to succeed! He wonders what the next place will be—the Deadwood Forest or the Flying City of the Wandering Clan.
If it's one of these two places, it's hard to know what the final effect will be.
Never mind, at least we've seen an opportunity now, and that's the best thing.
The other ores were also distributed. Just as Qiduo had said before, the twelve branches only took a few pieces of ore that they could use, and gave the rest to Fulong.
Fu Long didn't have much use for the other ores, but he kept them just in case.
Who can say for sure what this thing might come in handy someday?
Jin did not participate in the allocation of ore; in his view, these were external things and useless to him.
After being assigned, the group now faces the choice of which direction to take.
“The Deadwood Forest is just as dangerous as Tiger Spring Plain, and it may even be more dangerous than Tiger Spring Plain,” Jin said first.
In the Deadwood Forest, the Deadwood Clan possesses superior stealth abilities and fierce aggression. More importantly, their ability to extract even stones into sand is something humans cannot resist.
Therefore, if a deadwood forest is not handled properly, people could die.
"That should be the easiest place, right?" the little beast whispered from the side.
Her voice wasn't loud, but everyone heard it and looked at the little beast.
The little beast was also taken aback for a moment, and felt a little embarrassed.
"It's alright. If you have any thoughts, feel free to share them. They might be helpful to us."
Despite his seemingly simple-minded appearance, Ginta is actually quite a warm-hearted man.
"I just have an idea: maybe the drunkard's liquor combined with the foxy sister's fiery tail could counteract the withered wood?"
The group was taken aback. Dry wood is flammable, that's true. So why set the mountain on fire?
However, the method that Little Beast mentioned is definitely worth a try; what if it succeeds?
Furthermore, it seems that the effect should indeed be applied to the Deadwood Forest.
Fire can burn dry wood, that's not a problem, is it?
"Let's try it. We'll enter from the edge of the forest. If it doesn't work, we'll retreat," Qi Duo analyzed. In her opinion, we need to try it out to see if it works.
Jin simply shook his head; clearly, he knew this method might not work.
Fu Long pondered for a moment and said, "I'll set up the mountain god temple first, so that if it doesn't work out, we can escape back at any time."
The biggest fear is being caught by a dead tree, but as long as you are fast enough and use the sub-talisman properly, this should not happen.
If we can escape back, there shouldn't be any major problems.
And so, on the small hill, Fu Long placed a mountain god temple, which was still within the territory of the Tiger Spring Plain.
Although the Shi Hu clan is still wary of Fu Long and his group, they are generally on par and are unlikely to launch a surprise attack.
Therefore, Fu Long and his group had gained some confidence as they faced the desolate forest ahead.
Leaving Tiger Spring Plain, we headed to the Deadwood Forest. From afar, we could see countless enormous trees towering towards the sky in front of the Deadwood Forest.
However, there were no leaves on the trees; they were all withered, some with only half a trunk remaining.
Anyway, something just doesn't seem right, but whatever the case...
The Deadwood Forest was still at this moment, and nothing was seen moving, which meant that the Deadwood Clan of the Deadwood Forest was not here.
"Just test from the edge, don't go inside." Qi Duo stopped the group from going any further in.
"These dead trees are probably part of the enemy's attack. We must ensure there are no problems before we can advance; we must not take any risks."
Qi Duo's thinking was quite insightful. Taking risks once or twice is fine if you succeed, but if you do it too often, you'll inevitably run into trouble. So, being careful and cautious is the best approach.
The drunkard and the vixen nodded to each other, then one spat out wine, and the other flicked his fox tail.
When the flames met the wine, they immediately burst into flames.
The dead trees were immediately ignited, and in no time, the first few trees were burned to charcoal before the fire slowly died down.
Several people went forward and punched one of the trees with all their might.
With a boom, the charred trees were immediately knocked down.
"We succeeded." Everyone showed joy, which meant that the deadwood forest was indeed not so scary after all.
"It's just that the gaps between the trees here are a bit too big, and there's also the wind, otherwise, they would have all burned down together."
"It's alright, the two of us will take responsibility. Not a single one will be left in this forest."
The drunkard patted his chest, saying that there was plenty of alcohol and foxfire, so moving forward would definitely not be a problem.
