Deities: Starting From Goblins

Chapter 842: Chapter 496: Spirit Wings_2

Little White blinked its eyes, seeming not to understand its owner’s intention.

Logan stopped in his tracks too, standing in place, waiting for that thing to draw near. However, when it really approached, Logan’s figure was like the wind, swiftly dodging aside.

Seeing this, the Spirit Bear who had failed in its sneak attack let out a frustrated and angry howl.

Logan looked at it, a bit surprised, but not overly so.

“So it’s you, you accursed beast. I really hadn’t expected you, such a monster, to have your heart in a different place.”

He was incredibly clever, seeing through the trickery at a glance, as well as the true nature of the Spirit Bear’s return from the dead.

The Spirit Bear, after being one-sidedly beaten just now, clearly wasn’t as violent anymore and even regained some rationality, even considering a sneak attack.

Unfortunately, he, as a human, always had sharp senses and strong perception of his surroundings.

Especially when something was approaching him, his perception became even more formidable, and thus, he saw through the Spirit Bear’s trajectory and foiled its scheme.

Having suffered such serious injuries, the Spirit Bear knew it was no match for the human before it. After the failed sneak attack, its first reaction was to flee.

However, how could Logan possibly allow something that threatened him to escape?

“Run? You managed to run once from my hands, do you really think you can escape a second time?”

Afterward, he directly conjured an array, trapping the Spirit Bear.

Taking advantage of the Spirit Bear’s inability to escape, he commanded his Flying Sword, killing it outright. This time, to be extra cautious, Logan made sure every area was covered.

The Spirit Bear could be said to have been shot through the heart by a thousand arrows.

Its body was directly pierced by the array, creating a cavernous hole, and it fell to the ground with eyes wide open in death.

Logan leaped down from mid-air, looked at the Spirit Bear and thought, even if it’s a powerful Spirit Beast, and even with great coincidence, surely it couldn’t come back to life again, right?

Logan let Little White sniff around, and the little fox sneezed and covered its nose with a look of disgust, but it also conveyed a message.

The Spirit Bear was indeed truly dead.

Logan then set a fire, personally burning the Spirit Bear’s body to ashes, ensuring everything was turned to dust, before he felt at ease to leave.

It wasn’t that he was overly cautious, having been bitten once, he naturally had to be more vigilant. After dealing with the Spirit Bear, he once again stepped into the cave.

He had held great expectations for this place, entering and immediately searching carefully.

But after really getting inside, Logan still couldn’t help but feel disappointed.

It turned out to be just some ordinary Spirit Grass, not really ordinary either, somewhat rare, but he had seen plenty upon entering the Secret Land and had collected quite a bit, which by now was no longer special to him.

“Sigh, such a pity, Little White thought it was something good, but it turned out to be some Spirit Grass. Although somewhat precious, it’s not exceptionally so. Let’s collect these and leave.”

Having said that, even a mosquito’s worth of meat was still meat, and so he still collected the Spirit Grass.

After speaking, he planned to leave, but Little White refused to go, throwing a tantrum on the ground.

It threw a fit and called out, as if trying to convey some message.

As Logan looked at it, Little White ran down to the base of the cave.

It pointed to a direction below the cave, its urgent demeanor almost like it was about to cry.

“What does it mean? You don’t want to go, is there something under this cave?”

Logan was in perfect harmony with his pet, quickly grasping something, and Little White eagerly nodded its head, confirming his guess.

Logan thought that he might have underestimated this cave and even Little White.

Little White kept pointing down below the cave, with an increasingly urgent attitude.

Apparently, there must be something down there that attracted Little White, something good.

This time Logan was even more cautious, suspecting there might be an obstructive array.

He directly used his own array, “Two Yi Breaking Infinite Forms”, to get a glimpse of the Great Law within.

After clearing the mist to see the clear day, the true face of the mountain cave finally revealed itself.

It turned out that beneath the cave was a Spirit Vein.

No wonder so many Spirit Grasses grow here, no wonder even an ordinary bear could possess consciousness and even become the Guardian Beast of this place.

All the questions had answers.

It was all because of the Spirit Vein beneath this cave.

Logan’s eyes lit up, fixating on the Spirit Vein, unwilling to look away.

“Spirit Vein, Little White, this time you really did a great service. This is something that everyone outside fights over, but we can’t let outsiders see this. With this vein here, I don’t care for anything else. Let’s rest here peacefully for a month.”

After all, a Spirit Vein couldn’t be consumed in a short moment; it needed to be absorbed gradually. Moreover, considering the length of the Spirit Vein, the absorption process would be quite laborious.

Logan decided not to leave and properly practiced absorption there.

After a month, the cave he was in suddenly erupted in a blinding light.

The next moment, an oppressive power broke through the cave’s restrictions. Logan had made a breakthrough; his strength had reached the Saint Seat Third Level.

Reaching the Saint Seat level, advancing even a minor level was extremely difficult. Not only that, but the gap in strength between levels after a breakthrough was vast. Despite being just one minor level, Logan felt an endless surge of power.

He clenched his hand tightly, feeling the spiritual power converging within.

“This is a breakthrough, is this the strength after reaching the third level?”

The Saint Seat level was terrifying.

Merely breaking through one minor level had brought him so much gain.

Logan was very happy, and he knew it was all thanks to the Spirit Vein, and naturally, Little White deserved the credit for finding this vein.

Little White was still so young but had already achieved such a great feat.

Logan was extremely gratified.

He picked up Little White and hugged it in his arms, giving it a good rub.

“Little White, thank you. It was all thanks to you this time. If you hadn’t sensed the Spirit Vein, I wouldn’t have gained such a substantial increase in strength from the breakthrough.”

Receiving praise from its owner and showered with affection,

Little White could tell it was loved. Being naturally close to Logan, it was even more delighted at the moment.

“Alright, Little White, we’ve stayed here for quite a while, it’s time to head out.”

Little White responded joyously. After all, staying in the cave for so long had made it feel quite bored.

It had only been born not long ago and was at the time when it was most curious about the outside world.

Plus, with its lively nature, managing to endure for so long was already a rarity.

After leaving the cave, Logan looked at the sunlight outside and felt as if he was living in a different world. He shielded his eyes with his hand, and then, suddenly remembering his advancement, he couldn’t help but curl up the corners of his mouth in a smile.

But shortly after walking out, Stella Hime’s vast open space suddenly came alive with a vast swarm of venomous insects, snakes, and birds. The venomous insects circled in the air, flying straight towards him.

Different species of birds circled in the sky, their patterns strikingly beautiful, emanating a strange sense of danger. They also seemed to see Logan as an enemy or prey, attacking him.

Almost as soon as all the venomous creatures closed in, he summoned an Array, wrapping himself up securely, preventing the animals from getting close.

However, defending indefinitely wasn’t the solution; he had to find a way to eliminate them.

Firstly, he broke the initial Array, then used another, larger Array to encapsulate the Spirit Beasts. The next moment, he was outside the Array, activating the fire inside it.

Whether snakes, bugs, rodents, or ants, all Spirit Beasts naturally fear fire, and realizing they couldn’t escape, they emitted shrill, pitiful cries.

But Logan showed no mercy, burning them to ashes.

Suddenly hearing rustling noises, he rushed over and captured the sneaky culprit who had been trying to flee.

It was a woman, one adorned with silver decorations, and beautiful.

He held her wrist tightly, his gaze sharply demanding, “Tell me, who are you? Why did you release these venomous creatures to attack me, what’s your purpose?”

“I, I, let me go! It wasn’t on purpose. I just stumbled upon this Secret Land by chance, and I’ve been here a long time. Your sudden appearance made me think you were a threat, so I ordered the beasts to attack in self-defense,” she said.

Logan looked at her, half in doubt.
