I was reborn as a young master in an invincible family of immortals
Chapter 4: Misty Forest Adventure
After Lin Yun decided to go to the Misty Forest to search for the thousand-year-old spiritual herb, he began to make preparations. He knew that this trip was extremely dangerous and he must not take it lightly.
Lin Yun first took inventory of his existing magic weapons and elixirs. He exchanged several elixirs from the family treasury for quick spiritual energy recovery pills. He then carefully selected a piece of armor with strong defensive power and donned it. While the armor wasn't a rare treasure, it could still protect him from some attacks in a critical moment.
After making these preparations, Lin Yun did not disclose his whereabouts. He just quietly left a letter to tell Lin Wan'er that he was going out to gain experience and asked her not to worry. Then he set out on the journey to the Misty Forest alone.
Along the way, Lin Yun tried his best to avoid crowded places and chose to take some secluded paths. He knew that he was probably being secretly watched by many people. If his whereabouts were exposed, he might attract unnecessary trouble.
After several days of trekking, Lin Yun finally reached the edge of the Misty Forest. Standing at the forest entrance, a gloomy and damp atmosphere hit him. The pervasive mist was like a white veil, shrouding the forest interior in mystery.
Lin Yun took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and resolutely stepped into the misty forest.
As soon as he entered the forest, Lin Yun felt the surrounding spiritual energy become chaotic, and the fog became thicker, reducing his visibility to a minimum. He moved forward cautiously, always alert to possible danger.
"Roar!" Suddenly, a deafening roar came from the left, and then a gigantic monster leaped out of the woods. This monster resembled a black bear, but was much larger than an ordinary black bear. Its muscles bulged, and it exuded a fierce aura.
Lin Yun was startled and reacted quickly. He dodged and took a few steps back, while quickly forming seals with his hands and launching a spiritual attack towards the monster.
The monster did not dodge, but simply waved its thick front claws to easily disperse Lin Yun's spiritual attack, and then continued to pounce on Lin Yun.
Seeing this, Lin Yun did not dare to delay and quickly mobilized more spiritual power in his body, gathered it on his feet, and suddenly jumped high, avoiding the attack of the monster.
"Goodness, this monster is quite powerful," Lin Yun thought to himself. He knew that if he fought the monster head-on, he might not be able to gain the upper hand, so he had to find a way to outsmart it.
After Lin Yun stabilized his body in the air, he quickly took out a smoke bomb from his storage ring and threw it towards the location of the monster.
"Bang!" The smoke bomb exploded instantly, and a cloud of thick smoke spread around the monster, completely blocking its vision.
Lin Yun took the opportunity to land on the branch of a big tree, held his breath, concealed his breath, and quietly observed the movements of the monster.
The monster rushed left and right in the smoke, looking very anxious and roaring continuously. After a while, it seemed to realize that Lin Yun was no longer nearby and slowly walked towards the depths of the forest.
Seeing the monster go away, Lin Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief. He jumped down from the tree and continued to move deeper into the forest.
On the following journey, Lin Yun encountered several attacks from small monsters, but with his wit and existing strength, he resolved them one by one.
As he went deeper into the forest, Lin Yun felt that the spiritual energy around him was becoming increasingly dense. He was delighted, knowing that he was getting closer and closer to the thousand-year-old spiritual herb.
However, at this moment, Lin Yun suddenly heard a slight sound of fighting and people shouting. Curious, he quietly moved in the direction of the sound.
Through the dense woods, Lin Yun saw a scene: several immortal cultivators were besieging a spiritual bird that was emitting colorful light. Although the spiritual bird was not big in size, it was extremely fast. It could cleverly avoid the attacks of the immortal cultivators every time, and it would counterattack from time to time, making those immortal cultivators a little embarrassed.
Lin Yun observed carefully and found that he actually knew one of those cultivators. It was a disciple of a branch family named Lin Hui whom he had met before during the family spiritual power test.
Lin Hui's face flushed red as he attacked the spirit bird with all his might, shouting, "Everyone, work harder! Catch this spirit bird! It'll definitely fetch a good price!"
Lin Yun frowned, feeling somewhat disdainful of the act of capturing spirit birds for money. But he also didn't want to get involved, so he was about to quietly leave when the spirit bird, seemingly sensing his presence, suddenly flew towards him and hid behind him.
This attracted the attention of Lin Hui and others.
"Lin Yun, why are you here?" When Lin Hui saw Lin Yun, he was stunned at first, and then a hint of jealousy and dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.
Lin Yun sighed helplessly, knowing that he could not escape this time. He had to face this sudden situation and prepare to deal with new troubles that might arise.
The cultivators beside Lin Hui also stopped what they were doing and looked at Lin Yun with unfriendly eyes. One of them, a burly man, said in a gruff voice, "Kid, if you know what's good for you, hand over that spirit bird, or you'll be in big trouble!"
Lin Yun frowned slightly and responded coldly, "This spirit bird has nothing to do with me. It flew behind me on its own. I have no intention of interfering in your affairs."
"Hmph, stop talking nonsense! It's hiding behind you, so it's yours. Hand it over quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being rude!" Lin Hui also echoed from the side, and the jealousy in his eyes became more and more obvious.
Lin Yun sneered inwardly. These people were truly unreasonable. Although he didn't want to cause trouble, he wasn't afraid of it either. He immediately mobilized his spiritual energy and prepared for a conflict.
"I'll say it again, I won't hand over this spirit bird. If you want to do it, then come on!" Lin Yun's voice was full of determination.
Seeing Lin Yun's toughness, the cultivators exchanged glances before charging at him, shouting furiously. Lin Yun dodged the attacks of the first two who charged at him, quickly forming hand seals and deploying a spiritual shield in front of him.
"Bang, bang, bang!" Several attacks landed on the shield, making a series of noises. Lin Yun seized the opportunity to counterattack, a sharp spiritual blade shooting out from the shield, heading straight for one of the men. The man couldn't dodge in time, and the blade sliced his arm, causing him to scream in pain.
Seeing this, Lin Hui became even more angry. He took out a magic weapon from his storage ring, which was a long sword emitting a cold light. He muttered something, and the long sword instantly shone brightly and stabbed towards Lin Yun fiercely.
Lin Yun didn't dare to neglect his actions, maintaining his shield with all his strength while simultaneously dodging the longsword's attack. The longsword brushed past the edge of his clothes, bringing with it a gust of cold wind.
The two sides were caught in a fierce melee. Lin Yun was outnumbered and although it was a bit difficult, he was still able to cope with it with his combat experience in his previous life and his own wit.
At this moment, the spirit bird hiding behind Lin Yun suddenly took flight, letting out a crisp cry. The colorful light surrounding it grew increasingly dazzling, and then a beam of light burst from its mouth, charging straight towards the cultivators besieging Lin Yun.
Those immortal cultivators were caught off guard by the sudden attack and retreated one after another. Two of them were even hit by the light and fell to the ground.
Lin Yun took the opportunity to escape. He looked at the spirit bird and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. This spirit bird seemed to be quite spiritual and had helped him just now.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lin Hui and others did not dare to continue to pester him. After glaring at Lin Yun, they left in shame.
Lin Yun watched them depart and shook his head slightly. This unexpected encounter had made him realize even more clearly that danger abounds in this misty forest, not only from ferocious monsters but also from greedy and selfish cultivators. But the purpose of his journey was the thousand-year-old spiritual herb. No matter what, he had to continue on his journey, searching for the herb that could bring him immense opportunities, advancing on the path of cultivation and unlocking the mystery of rebirth.
