Forging The Path To Godliness

Chapter 178: Obtaining the Secret Treasure

 

Seeing that the ox-head horse-faced beast was heavily injured, the enraged Rasputin did not bother to hold back, he attacked while the enemy was incapacitated by magic.

Once the whip lashed out, Rasputin felt his vision turning blur as all the illusions vanished, everything felt more realistic to him now.

“Has the illusion been broken…” Rasputin let out a sigh as his expression turned ruthless.

“Time to teach you a lesson!”

…

Rasputin sat beside a charred corpse that was still emitting smoke.

“You whipped the corpse too?” Ye Feng could tell that this was the ox-head horse-faced beast.

He did not feel surprised that Rasputin was able to kill the enemy, after all, the Lightning Whip was very powerful.

But looking at his condition, Rasputin seemed to have suffered some injuries too, probably because he was attacked by the ox-head horse-faced beast and the illusions at the same time.

It seemed that this illusion was only effective on humans, the ox-head horse-faced beast was completely unaffected.

“How are you? Is your body alright?” Ye Feng walked towards him and sat down.

His impression of Rasputin had improved again.

“I’m fine, but my combat strength has fallen unavoidably.” Rasputin smiled bitterly as he pointed at his left arm.

“My left wrist is dislocated because of my secret skill, I also suffered some injuries caused by the illusions, as well from this beast.” While speaking, Rasputin seemed to have touched his wound accidentally as he winced and said: “This beast actually sneak attacked when I was fighting, it is so vicious.”

“Alright, drink the medicine.” Ye Feng took out a bottle of healing medicine and handed it to Rasputin.

This was left behind by Wien.

“An advanced healing medicine?” Rasputin recognized the traditional potion immediately, he looked at Ye Feng gratefully and drank the medicine without hesitation.

Ye Feng placed his hand at Rasputin’s wound and started to heal him.

He was an all-rounded Magician, he could use spells of all kinds, the only difference was whether they were stronger or weaker.

“Brother Ye Feng, you are amazing…” Rasputin could not help but feel grateful and blessed.

“That’s why you can’t be a burden to me.” Ye Feng shot a glance at him.

Due to both the medicine and healing magic, Rasputin’s wounds quickly healed, while the remaining injuries could not be fixed so easily.

“Let’s go, we’ll continue to move.” Ye Feng saw that Rasputin was lively again as he took the lead and left after stretching his body.

Possibly because of the sunlight, the blood fog was much thinner now. As for how it formed, that was still a mystery.

The two quickly went past the swampy area.

They were deep into the Demonic Dragon Island now as they saw a dense primitive forest.

In this dense forest, there was almost no blood fog.

“A dense forest… there should be many good things here.” Rasputin and Ye Feng had gotten closer during this period of time.

“That’s right, but good things are accompanied by danger.” Ye Feng reminded him before going inside without hesitation.

…

“Brother, you were right.” Rasputin’s lips twitched as he took out his Lightning Whip and looked at the surrounding mutated beasts vigilantly.

“Cut the crap, let’s kill them so we can continue on our exploration.” Ye Feng said lightly: “Are you okay by yourself? I’ll go ahead and kill them first.”

“Don’t worry!”

After hearing Rasputin’s reply, Ye Feng left him behind and pounced towards the black bear and silver wolf that were both covered in natural armor.

These mutated beasts were only at Bronze Knight level, Ye Feng decided to quickly kill them before going back to help out.

Rasputin had the Lightning Whip, even if he could not kill the beasts, he could stall for time.

But right when Ye Feng turned around after killing the two mutated beasts, the following scene shocked him.

A blood leopard pounced at Rasputin who was completely unaware of the attack.

Or rather, he could not react in time.

He had just swung his whip earlier, he could not retrieve it in time.

“Earth prison!”

Ye Feng waved his hand as an earth wall appeared immediately, blocking that blood leopard.

Next, he sent out a lightning bolt towards the mutated beast in front of Rasputin.

Using this chance, Rasputin quickly counterattacked.

Ye Feng had already returned now, working together with Rasputin, they managed to kill it.

“I’m sorry, brother, you saved me again.”

Rasputin sat on the ground, he was still a little shocked.

“What happened? You should not have a problem dealing with them.” Ye Feng frowned as he could not understand the situation.

He did not see the process of the battle, but Rasputin understood what had happened.

“This mutated beast has lightning resistance.” Rasputin smiled bitterly as he pointed at the corpse: “And because I am unable to use the full strength of the Lightning Whip, one of them fought against me openly while the other launched a sneak attack.’

“I am just too reliant on the Lightning Whip.”

Saying so, Rasputin fell into deep contemplation.

After a while, he raised his head and said solemnly to Ye Feng: “Brother, I’ll give this Lightning Whip to you.”

“Are you crazy?” Ye Feng did not have much of a reaction, this Lightning Whip could not significantly raise his strength after all.

He was a stage six Blacksmith, the one thing that he did not lack were weapons. Although the Lightning Whip was hard to forge, Ye Feng could make stronger weapons.

“I am serious.” Rasputin smiled and said: “Look, I can’t use the full power of the Lightning Whip. But brother, you can use lightning magic, this Lightning Whip suits you more, you can definitely display its full power.”

“Moreover, I am just too reliant on the Lightning Whip. Although it is strong, it is also restricting me from using my own strength.”

After a few battles, he understood his own situation. To speak the truth, the Lightning Whip could not allow him to grow much.

He might as well be like other Knights and raise his strength progressively.

He could not rely on the Lightning Whip forever.

“Isn’t this passed down in your family?”

He was giving his family’s treasure to someone else, wouldn’t they kill him?

Hearing Ye Feng’s question, Rasputin replied while laughing with tears: “I am the only person left in my family, I can make the decision on this.”

“Don’t reject it, you have saved me so many times, it is only right that I repay you. If not for you, my corpse would still be somewhere in the forest now.”

“Okay.” Ye Feng was silent for a while before nodding and accepting the gift.

If he rejected it any further, it would be too hypocritical.

After all, why would anyone reject a treasure like the Lightning Whip?
