Chapter 471: Just Want to Play, Not Intending to Die
Lin Moyu noted down the direction and let the dragon clan warships leave.
He continued towards the direction of the Burial Thunder Valley.
Antares had said that it was better not to enter the Burial Thunder Valley after level 80.
Lin Moyu had reason to believe that the lower the level when entering the Burial Thunder Valley, the better.
Analyzing problems by piecing together clues from scattered words and phrases, Lin Moyu was quite skilled at this.
In the blink of an eye, he had crossed this mountain range.
From above, this mountain range was over a thousand kilometers deep, like a huge dragon coiled on the ground. Thunder Trees covered the entire range.
There were both newly grown and ancient ones.
If he provoked any of them, he might face an attack from all of them.
As Lin Moyu crossed the mountain range, he happened to witness a shocking thunderbolt strike into the mountains.
The entire mountain range lit up at that moment.
An astonishing aura rose from the mountain range, startling Lin Moyu.
For a moment, Lin Moyu felt like a divine-level being had descended.
The aura was stronger than the pseudo-divine Angelic Spirit.
However, Lin Moyu knew that it couldn't be a divine-level being.
It should be at the level 89 limit. Although not yet divine-level, with the power of countless Thunder Trees gathered in this mountain range, even a true divine-level expert might not necessarily prevail.
As for the pseudo-divine level, they would have no chance of survival.
"Truly a case of provoking the small and angering the great."
"No wonder no one dares to harvest these superior Thunder Trees."
After crossing the mountain range, Lin Moyu felt slightly relieved.
He was also afraid that the Thunder Trees might target him, which would be troublesome.
Fortunately, nothing happened, and he passed through safely.
The thunderous roars gradually faded into the distance, and the vast amount of lightning was left far behind.
Ahead, no more lightning struck down.
The Wind and Thunder Continent was filled with mountains, marshes, and valleys.
These three types of terrain were basically all there was.
Undulating continuously, with few flat areas.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, followed by a flurry of petals appearing before his eyes.
These petals danced freely in the air. Originally, there was no wind, but as the petals fluttered, they stirred up quite a breeze.
Wind Flowers.
The second type of plant monster on the Wind and Thunder Continent.
The Wind Flowers were not on the ground but in the air.
They drifted with the wind, making them difficult to track.
According to the information, except for the areas with Thunder Trees, Wind Flowers could appear anywhere at any time.
Encountering Thunder Trees was fine as long as you didn't provoke them, but Wind Flowers were different - even if you didn't provoke them, they would come after you.
Lin Moyu was already being very careful, but he still ran into the Wind Flowers head-on.
There was no warning before the collision.
These Wind Flowers flew extremely fast, much faster than Lin Moyu.
And they moved silently, so by the time Lin Moyu noticed, it was too late.
Then, a raging wind howled, and a large number of petals swept towards Lin Moyu.
At the same time, a floral fragrance began to permeate the air.
As a plant monster, the Wind Flowers were also a decent material for alchemy.
When attacking, the petals would release a fragrance that could cause hallucinations, making people lose themselves in the illusion.
However, the bewitching floral scent had no effect on Lin Moyu.
The Wind Flowers' wind slammed into Lin Moyu, and his skeletal armor flickered brightly, deflecting the attack. Lin Moyu's finger lit up with white light.
Just because the Thunder Trees couldn't move didn't mean the Wind Flowers couldn't.
According to the information provided by Yao Yiming, Wind Flowers generally acted in small groups.
There wouldn't be a BOSS among them, only when a large number of Wind Flowers gathered would a BOSS appear.
Compared to Thunder Trees, dealing with Wind Flowers was much simpler.
Skill: Bone Spikes!
It had been a long time since he used this skill.
3,120 bone spikes at level 52 whistled out, covering a large area.
The petals dancing in the air simultaneously dodged to the sides, moving at an extreme speed, almost like teleportation.
All the Bone Spikes missed their targets.
Lin Moyu was startled, "Their speed is so fast."
He tried a few more times, but the result was the same.
The Bone Spikes couldn't hit the Wind Flowers at all.
The information mentioned that Wind Flowers were very fast, but he didn't expect them to be this fast.
He used a detection spell on one of the petals.
**[Wind Flower]**
**[Level: 72]**
**[Strength: 100,000]**
**[Agility: 300,000]**
**[Spirit: 150,000]**
**[Constitution: 180,000]**
**[Skills: Bewitching Fragrance, Whirlwind, Pollen Explosion]**
**[Traits: 70% Wind Element Immunity, Extreme Speed Enhancement]**
The total attributes were only 730,000, not particularly high.
But the agility attribute alone was 300,000, giving the Wind Flowers a speed far exceeding other monsters of the same level.
Combined with their innate wind elemental attribute and the Extreme Speed Enhancement trait, it was no wonder their speed was so fast.
There were over a hundred Wind Flowers in front of him, so using the Soul Flames was impractical.
"Then let me slow you down."
Lin Moyu's finger pointed out, and red light flashed everywhere.
Since there were no Thunder Trees on the ground, he had no reservations.
Within the red light, the Wind Flowers' speed immediately slowed down.
Lin Moyu smiled, as the Curse skill was extremely effective against ordinary monsters.
These Wind Flowers now moved as if in slow motion, drifting slowly.
Not only him, even a level 20 professional could accurately hit them.
But in the next second, he could no longer smile.
Countless red swords appeared in the air.
Not just in the air, but also on the ground, there were countless red swords.
The clouds parted, revealing a dense cluster of Wind Flowers above his head.
These Wind Flowers must have appeared silently, hidden in the clouds, undetected by Lin Moyu.
And the ones on the ground were hidden in the grass, completely unnoticeable.
The Curse was three-dimensional, covering a range of 12,600 meters, enveloping who knows how many Wind Flowers - Lin Moyu couldn't even count.
If they were just ordinary Wind Flowers, it wouldn't matter how many there were.
The problem was that among them were a few Wind Flowers with unusual forms and powerful auras, clearly lord-level BOSSes.
Moreover, one Wind Flower slowly descended from the sky, its massive petals over a hundred meters in diameter.
Needless to say, it was a world-class BOSS.
Lin Moyu felt himself being targeted.
The raging wind had already started howling, and a terrifying attack was imminent.
"Damn it!"
Lin Moyu didn't even think, taking out a random teleportation scroll and activating it.
Accompanied by a flash of light, he disappeared.
The raging wind swept through where Lin Moyu had been standing, and the Wind Flowers hovered there, unsure of what had happened.
Hundreds of kilometers away, Lin Moyu reappeared.
"That was a close call."
He muttered to himself, never expecting to encounter so many Wind Flowers.
Now he understood why the information said that Wind Flowers were more dangerous than Thunder Trees.
After all, Thunder Trees were out in the open - as long as you didn't provoke them, they wouldn't attack you.
But Wind Flowers were hidden, and they could come after you at any time.
He thought there wouldn't be many, but with one counterattack, he realized they were everywhere.
If he had been even a second slower, trying to escape would have been difficult.
Being entangled by a world-class BOSS of that level, even a teleportation scroll might have failed.
He could have won the battle, but it would have come at a significant cost.
His current priority was still to deal with the matter of the Burial Thunder Valley first, so he could proceed without any worries.
After that, he could have a good fight, even if it lasted until the world went dark.
If he couldn't win, he could just teleport directly to the Abyss.
He took out the map and checked the direction.
Compared to before, he was now a bit further away from the Burial Thunder Valley.
After adjusting his direction, he continued on his way.
This time, Lin Moyu flew lower and paid closer attention to avoid any more Wind Flowers.
This journey was much smoother, and after flying for half an hour, covering over a thousand kilometers, he didn't encounter any more Wind Flowers.
He did come across some Thunder Trees, but they were only small patches, and the trees were young, having been struck by lightning only a few times at most, making them at best platinum-grade materials.
Lin Moyu didn't waste any time on them and simply flew over, not stopping.
Soon, Lin Moyu arrived in front of a valley.
Above the valley, raging winds howled, and visible whirlwinds spun in the air.
Inside the valley, the winds were even more intense, with countless massive boulders swirling around.
"According to the map, this is the Whirlwind Valley."
"On both sides of the Whirlwind Valley are the more dangerous Thunder Marshes. If I take a detour around them, it would add over 5,000 kilometers to the journey."
"Not only would it waste time, but there would also be other dangers. Relatively speaking, passing through the Whirlwind Valley is the most appropriate choice."
Lin Moyu analyzed the situation before him.
Looking towards both sides of the valley, he could vaguely see lightning illuminating the sky.
Those were the Thunder Marshes marked on the map.
The Thunder Marshes were like a crescent moon, and the Whirlwind Valley was the sword piercing through it.
Moreover, the map clearly stated that there were two world-class BOSSes in the Thunder Marshes, both at level 85. Defeating one would attract the other.
After considering, Lin Moyu decided to pass through the Whirlwind Valley.
He encased himself in a layer of skeletal armor, and his Lightning Undead Wings fluttered slightly as he charged into the valley.
Just as Lin Moyu entered the Whirlwind Valley, a spatial rift appeared somewhere on the Wind and Thunder Continent.
A group of demons rushed out.
Mina sensed the direction and pointed towards the Whirlwind Valley, "I can sense him there..."
