Chapter 239 God-Hunter Bow - Thunderous Strike! (33)

Thanks to the intelligence that Xiao Yue had gathered beforehand, the two deliberately bypassed the location of Cliff City.

Therefore, after a journey without wind or danger, Wu Yi and his companion finally arrived at the border between the Guifang Kingdom and the Hundred Mountains, where they saw a magnificent canal.

"That's the Grand Canal of a Hundred Locations!"

Staring in awe at the Grand Canal, which showed clear signs of human intervention, Xiao Yue couldn't help but let out a gasp of amazement.

"The last time I came here, this was still a narrow passage."

"The prophet, with the grace of a demon god, severed the earth's veins with his sword, drawing a forbidden zone between the Hundred Lands Mountains and the Ghost Kingdom."

"At that time, I didn't have the ability to fly, so I took a lot of detours in order to get around this 'narrow passage'."

After a slight pause, Xiao Yue's eyes were filled with nostalgia.

That journey through a hundred mountains and valleys transformed Xiao Yue, giving him a qualitative leap and upgrading him from a low-ranking official to the personal bodyguard of the supreme ruler.

Even if it was just a temporary escort for this trip, it was enough to show Xiao Yue's current status in the Great Xia.

"To use ghosts and spirits to dig canals and serve as the vanguard for the invasion of Wuzhiqi's army, this is clearly the style of that eldest prince."

Wu Yi didn't have many feelings, but he also looked at the Grand Canal with a slight surprise.

"Unfortunately, this time, Moji chose the wrong opponent."

"Not only that, even the great river he dug eventually became the spoils of war for the mountain people."

Looking into the distance, Wu Yi could clearly see many strange ships emerging from the Bai Di Mountains and then sailing along the Grand Canal towards the outside world.

Compared to the canoes and sampans of this era.

The boats built by the mountain people were clearly much more advanced.

They are not only larger than ordinary ships, but also have a complete keel, ribs, hull, mast, sails, watertight compartments and rudder structure.

When Wu Yi used a spell that enhanced his vision to carefully observe the ships.

He even saw the bow positions of those ships and the complete navigation route map.

Of course, the mountain people nowadays usually call it "Hetu".

In fact, these ships were not designed by Li Boyang.

These were all invented and designed by the mountain people themselves by studying the various marvelous devices recorded on the "Luoshu".

Therefore, those ships did not have a unified style.

The designer's ingenuity is evident in every detail.

Some were propelled by windmills, while others were propelled by pedal-powered waterwheels...

Some ingenious mountain villagers even used a fish-scale-like edge-stitching method to painstakingly piece together countless small pieces of wood to form a large ship.

Even Wu Yi, who was known for his skill and daring, couldn't help but feel a sense of dread when he saw those unique fish-scale boats.

He didn't know what the mountain people used to glue those small pieces of wood together.

But Wu Yi knew that a ship cobbled together like this wouldn't last long if it encountered strong winds and waves.

Are those... ships?

Just then, Xiao Yue, who was straining to open his eyes wide, also saw the boats on the canal.

Those boats each carried dozens of people, and even Xiao Yue, who had traveled all over the country for many years and considered himself to be very knowledgeable, had never seen them before.

"What are these mountain people doing? Are they going to leave the Hundred Mountains?"

Upon hearing Xiao Yue's question, Wu Yi smiled and began to explain.

"The mountain people are not leaving here; they intend to travel to other countries to trade."

"Don't be fooled by the fact that these ships are full of people on deck; they're hiding cargo underneath."

"Grain, salt, brocade, paper, and some other things I don't even recognize..."

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, it would be hard to imagine..." "Just a few years ago, these people were just a group of mountain people and barbarians struggling to survive."

Just as Wu Yi was feeling this way, his expression suddenly changed, and he abruptly turned his head to look in the direction of the Hundred Mountains.

"how……?"

Just half a beat slower than Wu Yi, the unorthodox primordial spirit within Xiao Yue's body also issued a warning to him.

The next second, a surge of primordial energy burst forth from his body, transforming into a fire dragon that firmly protected the two of them.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

"what?"

Almost at the same moment that Wu Yi and Xiao Yue changed their expressions.

Dozens of kilometers away, on a relatively flat hill in Zhenhe Peak.

A giant over ten meters tall with four arms suddenly raised an eyebrow.

"Such a quick reaction?"

"It seems either they've come with ill intentions, or they're a powerful force crossing the river!"

This four-armed giant is none other than the mountain god, Gao Yao Jun, who fought against the flood alongside the seventh child.

Now, Takao-kun has long since regained his freedom.

However, it is unclear whether it was to commemorate the flood or simply to stay away from Li Boyang.

Ultimately, Gao Yaojun chose to come to Zhenhe Peak near the Grand Canal and became the new mountain god stationed here.

Whenever a foreign deity or powerful being tries to enter the Hundred Mountains, Lord Gaoyao will take the initiative to probe, just as he always has.

"In that case, let me test your capabilities first!"

Suddenly, he stretched out an arm and slammed it into the ground beneath his feet. At that moment, Kouyao-kun's voice became exceptionally excited.

Rumble…

In an instant, the mineral veins buried beneath the earth actively converged and condensed.

When Lord Gaoyao pulled his hand out of the ground, a large metal bow, almost as tall as him, was suddenly formed.

Unlike ordinary hunting bows of this era.

This large metal bow is not only extremely rare in its material, but also has an unusually complex structure.

It is obvious that this large metal bow was a murder weapon that Kouyao Jun specially made for himself, based on the mechanical structure in the Luoshu.

In terms of pure structure, this metal bow might not even be as good as the composite bow that Li Boyang remembered.

However, in order to maximize their own strength advantages.

The enhancements made to the other aspects of the Gōyō-kun have absolutely reached the limits that mechanical structures can achieve.

This is God!
A higher-dimensional life form that far surpasses ordinary beings in both strength and intelligence!
All it takes is for someone to knock on that door called "technology" first, and they can turn it into their own at an unimaginable speed.

"Actually, I've wanted to do this for a long time!"

As the two hands of the Lord of the Piercing Mountain assumed the posture of drawing a bow and shooting an arrow, his other two arms drew a lightning magic talisman in mid-air.

Using the vital energy of life as a guide and the vital energy of heaven and earth as a source...

They forcibly summoned the thunder and lightning of heaven and earth, which then transformed into arrows to attack the enemy.

This is an attack method that Gao Yao Jun simulated in his own way after witnessing Li Jing Shu's Thunder Magic Bullets.

Apart from putting in some effort when learning thunder magic talismans, everything else came naturally and effortlessly.
