Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 139: The Powerful Big Mushroom_1

Seeing Captain Yang and the others struggling again, Feng Yuan, who had just reconciled with Xiao Ji, said helplessly,

"This is really like falling into a snake pit, why are there so many snakes..."

"Get out of the way!"

Seeing that the Big Mushroom, which was following close behind Feng Yuan, suddenly spewed out poison fog towards the snakes, Qi Chen urgently shouted. Upon hearing Qi Chen’s warning, the others quickly moved away from the poison fog. Feng Yuan waved his hand and the Crystal Barrier rose up to stop the fog. With their vision obscured by the thick poison fog, the group didn’t notice Feng Yuan’s action. Qi Chen couldn’t help but yell out,

"Feng Yuan! Are you okay?"

Wu Feng commanded the Fire Vermilion Bird to use its Great Wind Move to blow away the poison fog. Xiao Ji, panicking and staying by Qi Chen’s side, started rushing towards where Feng Yuan was, but Qi Chen managed to grab it in time. Holding onto Xiao Ji’s scruff, Qi Chen said somewhat helplessly,

"There’s no use rushing over, you don’t have the ability to be immune to poison moves."

Xiao Ji, unsatisfied, glared at Qi Chen and struggled to rush over. The girl spoke calmly, yet with a trace of fear,

"It killed someone again..."

Soon the poison fog dispersed and seeing the Crystal Barrier glowing faintly white, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Wu Feng, with an unpleasant expression, pointed his lance at the Big Mushroom. Feng Yuan sighed, walked over to the Big Mushroom, and gently patted it, saying,

"I understand now why she is so afraid of you."

After stroking the cap of the Big Mushroom, Feng Yuan sighed and said,

"Your poison fog is too powerful; others could be killed by accident..."

"But according to your strength, you shouldn’t have been so seriously hurt. What exactly happened?"

Feng Yuan, with a puzzled look, touched the Big Mushroom, which made a contented noise. After a while, the Big Mushroom started heading in a certain direction. Seeing Feng Yuan turn back to rejoin the team, he quickly shouted, looking a bit puzzled at the Big Mushroom,

"What are you going to do?"

Seeing that the Big Mushroom only made urging noises, Feng Yuan looked at Captain Yang. After thinking for a moment, Captain Yang then said,

"Follow it!"

"Why? Shouldn’t we be rushing to deal with the source now?"

Wu Feng immediately shouted, somewhat dissatisfied. Yang Hongzhi thought for a moment, looking puzzled at Captain Yang. Qi Xiaoshuang, walking beside the White Wolf Deity with a scornful gaze at the confused Qi Chen, said,

"We’re clearly trapped in a Spatial Loop now. It will be difficult to find the source of the drought if we keep going. Since we don’t have a better plan for now, we might as well see what this mushroom intends to do."

Qi Chen, seeing Feng Yuan follow the Big Mushroom, couldn’t help but speak out,

"Be careful! Don’t get accidentally hurt."

As Feng Yuan proceeded, he raised his left hand and waved it to show he understood. Following the Big Mushroom, the rain gradually lessened and finally stopped. Sensing that the environment was starting to dry out, Feng Yuan said with a touch of surprise,

"Yo, an unexpected gain."

"What happened?"

"We must have broken through the previous Spatial Loop."

Feng Yuan said happily, looking at the Big Mushroom ahead. Qi Chen, still puzzled, asked,

"How do you know?"

"The rain, of course. The closer we get to the source, the weaker the Storm Move’s effect – isn’t that obvious?"

Feng Yuan said while looking around. The dry woods obviously hadn’t seen any rain. Qi Chen, still puzzled, looked towards the Big Mushroom at the very front and asked,

"What level of Spirit Beast is it? That strong?"

"Good Level."

"You’re kidding!"

Qi Chen looked at Wu Feng, who had spoken, with surprise. After a moment of silence, the Fire Vermilion Bird nodding on his head, Wu Feng spoke again,

"That’s right, within the sensing range of the Vermilion Bird, it is indeed at a Good Level."

"But how..."

Qi Chen looked at the Big Mushroom with some disbelief, while Feng Yuan, following the Big Mushroom and rubbing the head of Xiao Ji nestled in his arms, said without looking back,

"Is this so strange? Let’s not even mention the Vermilion Bird, but purely Fire Power moves wouldn’t cause much damage anyway. A Domain is no joke; this Domain seems to be particularly restrictive towards Fire Power. If the Vermilion Bird only used Fire Power, its attack would probably only be at a Common Level."

Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s explanation, the Vermilion Bird on Wu Feng’s head buried its head in its wings, embarrassed, while Wu Feng scratched his head with an awkward expression on his face.

"As for Captain Yang, the Golden Spirit Carp, although water-based and not so restricted, is still not in its designated place of power, so its strength drops by one level directly. I remember He Bo’s corresponding strength is at a Rare Level, which drops down to an Elite Level when reduced. The problem is that the weather effect is a combination of clear skies and rain, and the clear skies have the upper hand. So, when the strength drops another level doesn’t it become Good Level?"

"Why does its strength drop a level under clear skies?"

Qi Chen, puzzled, looked at Feng Yuan, who replied somewhat speechlessly,

"You need to understand that the Golden Spirit Carp is not an amphibious Spirit Beast. The water sphere surrounding it is formed by its own energy consumption. Clear weather has a restraining effect on such a condition. Unless it’s back in water, its strength will indeed drop by a level."

"Of course, for a restraining effect to take place, the clear weather itself needs to be sufficiently strong; otherwise, it wouldn’t lead to a decrease in strength."

Captain Yang sighed, glanced at the Golden Spirit Carp, which looked back at him and leapt out of the water sphere before falling back into it.

"As for Bai Mao and the little wolf, they don’t really have effective group attack methods, and those snakes are small and agile, so isn’t it totally normal for the fight to go slow?"

As everyone talked, they followed the Big Mushroom deeper in. After a long walk, the Big Mushroom stopped and looked at Feng Yuan with an expectant gaze. Scratching his head in confusion, Feng Yuan asked the Big Mushroom,

"What do you want me to do for you?"

The Big Mushroom seemed somewhat embarrassed, and after hesitating for a while, it pointed with its little hand at an open space not far away and then at the Greatsword in Feng Yuan’s hands. Seeing Feng Yuan ready to walk over with the Greatsword, Captain Yang called out,

"Stop! I’ll go first!"

As he spoke, Captain Yang, along with his Spirit Beast, walked over to see a Flame Serpent coiled up on the open ground, and with narrowed eyes, he said softly,

"Does it want us to deal with that snake?"

Feng Yuan looked at the Big Mushroom with a questioning gaze, to which the Big Mushroom nodded, looking somewhat embarrassed. Meng Binglan walked up behind Captain Yang, looking at the Flame Serpent with surprise, and Wu Feng and the Vermilion Bird stood guard, while Teacher Yan gathered Qi Chen and others near the White Wolf Deity. Xiao Ji, by Feng Yuan’s side, watched the Big Mushroom warily, and Big Cat stood beside Feng Yuan, seemingly distracted but with peripheral glances scanning the surroundings.

"It does seem like that’s the idea."

"We help it deal with the snake, and in return, it leads us to the source of the drought."

As Captain Yang observed the giant snake, he spoke calmly, and Feng Yuan, scratching his face with his index finger somewhat speechlessly, looked at the Big Mushroom and said,

"Do you think that’s a good idea?"

The Big Mushroom first shook its head and then nodded. Feng Yuan was left dizzy by its actions and said with an exasperated tone,

"What’s with this nodding and shaking your head? What exactly do you mean?"

The Big Mushroom pointed at the giant snake and nodded, then pointed at Captain Yang, shaking its head before nodding again, leaving Feng Yuan completely puzzled. Qi Chen said somewhat speechlessly,

"Why don’t you just use your ’Communication with All Beings’?"

"I have it on, don’t I? ’Communication with All Beings’ requires the other party to have a relatively mature intellect and the ability to communicate linguistically, which it clearly lacks."

Seeing the phantom of the White Wolf Deity on the hilt of Feng Yuan’s Greatsword, Qi Chen looked exasperated, and Wu Feng glanced at Gladys and said,

"Could you help out?"

"I’m afraid not. After all, humans think differently about language compared to Spirit Beasts, so a direct mind connection likely wouldn’t yield answers either."

As the Big Mushroom continued gesturing various strange movements, Feng Yuan, holding his head in frustration, said,

"I’ll just deal with it and be done with this guessing game."

"I... think I might know what it means..."

A girl nearby spoke up hesitantly.
