The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 975 Inscription

Two figures appeared, and the wild beasts in the forest immediately roared and rushed over in groups!

To Ling Feng and Yu Linglong, these wild beasts were not a threat at all. In a flash, the glint of the saber and sword shone, and in just a moment, the ground was covered with a dense mass of wild beasts’ corpses!

Despite their ferocity, the beasts continued to charge fearlessly towards the two, even after witnessing their companions being instantly slaughtered, opening their huge blood-thirsty mouths in an attempt to bite them.

In the end, all the wild beasts were killed, not a single one escaping.

The air was polluted with the scent of blood. Seeing Yu Linglong frowning, Ling Feng asked, "Do you want a mask?"

"No need!"

Yu Linglong said, taking her longsword and walking deeper into the forest.

Ling Feng followed her: "Is this the danger you sensed?"

"No, there’s something even more dangerous ahead, be careful!"

Yu Linglong walked slowly, speaking as she moved.

Seeing that she wasn’t joking, Ling Feng became alert as well, his Divine Sense enveloping the entire oasis, but he found nothing.

After walking a short distance, a rustling sound came, and the two exchanged glances, both looking down at the sand!

The sound was coming from beneath the sand, and soon Ling Feng saw countless little mounds rising from the sandy ground, followed by a swarm of black beetles burrowing out!

The beetles were the size of fists, numbering in the thousands, maybe tens of thousands. Ling Feng’s scalp tingled as he exclaimed, "Holy shit, there are so many!"

"Fire attack, quick!"

Yu Linglong shouted.

With so many beetles, relying solely on sabers and swords would never suffice to kill them all.

Knowing Ling Feng had the Five Elements Fruit, she instantly concocted a strategy.

And Ling Feng was quite relieved; fortunately, he hadn’t given all the Five Elements Fruit to Li Fei’er, or else he would be in a tight spot now.

So he quickly put away the God Slayer Saber and took out a pile of Five Elements Fruit, throwing them out.

Flames erupted, forming a wall of fire.

The beetles were exceptionally aggressive; knowing full well the ferocity of the flames, they still charged forward like a tide.

The result was clear; they were not made of steel and were instantly ignited as they passed through the flames!

Their bodies were extremely dry, and as a result, once ignited, they made a dense popping sound like firecrackers during New Year’s celebrations!

Moreover, the beetles seemed quite dumb. The wall of fire Ling Feng had thrown was only a little over ten meters long, yet they didn’t think to go around. They just kept running from the burning area towards them, resulting in wave after wave charging into the fire and being burned alive.

"It’s too cruel, it’s practically a massacre!"

Ling Feng continued throwing Five Elements Fruit with fire attributes as he spoke.

Yu Linglong glanced at him and couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

Ten minutes later, the beetles were gone, and in front of them lay a stretch of black ash over ten meters long.

There was a strange odor in the air, indescribable, but it was the scent emitted after the beetles had burned.

Ling Feng and Yu Linglong walked past these ashes and after moving forward two hundred meters, they arrived at the lakeside.

It was a small lake with only a few hundred meters in diameter, with clear water and sparkling waves that were quite picturesque.

Yu Linglong frowned at the lake, and Ling Feng asked, "What’s wrong?"

"The thing is under the water, but I can’t swim!" Yu Linglong said.

"That’s simple, watch me!"

Ling Feng chuckled, leapt up, and landed on the surface of the water.

Then, like a hefty stone, he went kerplunk and plunged into the lake.

The lake was truly clear. After diving in, Ling Feng could clearly see the lakebed. Not far ahead, right at the center, there indeed was something white!

So he swam over quickly and then sank down.

But upon a closer look, he discovered it was actually a white stone, which left Ling Feng’s face marked with disappointment!

However, since Yu Linglong said it was this item, he still reached out to touch the stone and placed it into his Space Bracelet, then surfaced.

Turning back, he swam to the shore. After getting out of the water, Ling Feng took the stone and tossed it onto the sand: "Each time is worse than the last; it turned out to be a stone this time!"

Yu Linglong remained silent, bent down to look at it, flipped the stone over, and then asked, "What are these characters?"

"Characters?"

Ling Feng was taken aback and leaned over to look, only to find that this side indeed had densely packed inscriptions, but unfortunately, he couldn’t recognize them.

Still, Ling Feng understood and looked up at Yu Linglong: "This is a stele!"

"Mm, it records something, but it’s a pity we can’t understand it!"

From his response, Yu Linglong knew that Ling Feng couldn’t understand the characters inscribed on it either.

"Let’s just take it back with us and see, I refuse to believe no one will recognize it!"

Ling Feng said, retrieving the stone.

Then, turning to Yu Linglong, he added: "Shall we go? Once the next one is done, all the maps will be unlocked!"

"Okay."

Yu Linglong had no objections, so the two teleported back to the Second Layer Heaven.

Afterward, the fifth map was unlocked.

This time, Ling Feng and Yu Linglong arrived in a mountainous area.

They were flanked by steep mountains, appearing in a gorge only a dozen meters wide, where the mountain winds whistled past, bringing a chill.

Seeing Yu Linglong shiver, Ling Feng removed his jacket: "If you don’t mind the sweat, you can wear this!"

"Don’t you have other clothes in your bracelet?" asked Yu Linglong.

"Uh, let me see."

Ling Feng hesitated for a moment before opening the Space Bracelet.

And indeed, he found a thicker jacket, though he wasn’t sure when he had put it in there.

After taking it out and handing it to Yu Linglong, Ling Feng couldn’t help but chuckle and ask, "What, you don’t want to wear my clothes because they smell of sweat?"

"Of course not. If I wear your clothes, you’ll only be left with a tank top. Can you handle that?" Yu Linglong glanced at him.

"Is that the case? Actually, with my constitution, I wouldn’t be affected by this bit of chill!" Ling Feng said with a smile.

Yu Linglong looked at him: "Don’t speak too confidently; you’ll see after we walk a while."

After saying that, she put on the jacket and headed deeper into the gorge.

Ling Feng followed her, eyeing the surrounding mountains as they walked and couldn’t help but say: "I wonder where this place is. We can’t be on Earth because it’s only autumn outside now. Why is it so cold here?"

"..."

Yu Linglong didn’t reply, striding forward as if in a hurry.

Seeing that she didn’t want to talk, Ling Feng didn’t press further, and they both continued one behind the other towards the heart of the mountains.

The gorge was deep and winding. They had walked for who knows how long, having turned corners seven or eight times, yet the end of the gorge was still nowhere in sight.

So Ling Feng couldn’t help but suggest: "Shall we climb to the mountain top to have a look? This gorge seems as if it has no end."
