Chapter One Hundred: Oath of Brotherhood in the Cave

  The electric current jumping on Li Xie's body did not cause any harm to him at all, and after jumping for a while, it flowed into the ground and disappeared.

  Art Young couldn't help but feel surprised at this situation.

  The electric current generated by the demon beast is different from the natural world, and it is triggered by the magic or aura of the mainland of the gods, and its lethality cannot be compared.

  To put it in perspective, if a 5th-tier Sword Saint were to be struck by lightning from the natural world, they might only feel a slight numbness and wouldn't suffer any harm. However, if they were to be struck by the same amount of lightning summoned by a 5th-tier mage or magical beast, they would likely be on the verge of death.

  And the flames, ice, poison, water and so on that are triggered by magic and Dou Qi have a killing power that far exceeds that of the natural world, as they contain magical and Dou Qi damage.

  The electric current of the Seventh-Order Thunderbolt Warhorse, amplified by magic, was powerful enough to electrocute a Seventh-Order Sword Saint until they were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Yet, Li Xie, this useless person without any magical or aura fluctuations, had no magic or aura to defend against such damage, but he wasn't affected in the slightest by the Seventh-Order Thunderbolt's attack. The only explanation was that his body was immune to magical damage!

  While immune to magic or Chi damage, only some special magical creatures are born with it. Humans can only rely on their own magic and Chi to defend against it. Only demigods can achieve immunity without triggering Chi or magic!

  Lixia's current situation naturally made Arte Ray wonder if Lixia wasn't a waste person, but a demigod! This is the only way to explain why he saw that Lixia had no magical aura fluctuations, yet was immune to seventh-order lightning, and also, a waste person who suffered a kick from a seventh-order Thunderhoof Warhorse could still speak, even if it were a fifth or sixth-order Sword Saint, they would have been killed instantly.

  "Don't be surprised, I don't have magic or aura, and I'm not a demigod either. If I were a demigod, you wouldn't need to catch demons." Li Xie had been on the continent of gods for a long time and knew about demigods. From Ate's astonished expression, he could also guess what was on his mind.

  However, as for the Immunity Magic, Li Xie himself couldn't understand why he didn't feel even a bit of sensation when the 7th rank Thunderbolt hit him.

  Can vampires be immune to the magic of the Gods' Continent? I don't know what level of magic they can be immune to. Also, I don't know if Dou Qi can be immune.

  Maybe I'll have to try it sometime!

  Immune magic was a good thing, Li Xie didn't pursue it in detail, just thinking that it was the special physique of this vampire. Adding to his own serious injury, Li Xie made some explanations, letting Arte and Brad Pitt not think he was a demigod, then took out a bottle of blood and started drinking.

  Now, the blood drawn from the guards who followed Li Xie into the spatial ring was all stored in wine bottles. This way, he wouldn't be afraid of drinking blood in front of others; after all, it looked just like red wine.

  Although various signs indicate that Li Xie is a demigod, as Li Xie said, if he were a demigod, it would be impossible for him to ask Arte Rayo for help in capturing the demon beast. Arte Rayo only thought of Li Xie as a strange person, and after expressing his admiration, confirmed that Li Xie was fine, then continued to put the demon beast into the capture device.

  "Hurry up. Who knows if a high-level demon has already spotted us, we still need to find a safe place to settle down before nightfall."

  Yat Yiu seems worried about this situation, and Lee Cheuk also hastily joins the ranks of installing Thunderbolt War Horse.

  The unexpectedness just now has made him realize that capturing high-level demons is no ordinary danger.

  Creatures of the fifth rank and above possess intelligence, with higher ranks being increasingly clever. Some special species are even as intelligent as humans. For example, Zha'thik, who can take on a human form, is almost indistinguishable from a person.

  Such a clever demon beast, and Li Xie and his group were on its territory.

  It's clear that the horse king was aware of something being off and pretended to sleep, just to launch a desperate counterattack against his enemy. Li Xie happened to be one of those who fell for it. If the horse king had kicked Li Xie in the head, with Li Xie's current strength, he wouldn't have been able to survive having his skull destroyed. The outcome would likely have been that Li Xie would have died instantly.

  This time I didn't die, it can only be considered a narrow escape!

  This also made Li Xie more cautious, and he listened more to the instructions of Aite Reiyao, this old hand. He didn't want to suddenly have dozens of eighth-level magic beasts jumping out around him, only to tragically discover that the people trying to capture the magic beasts had actually become a delicious meal in the mouths of the magic beasts.

  Soon, all 103 seventh-order Thunder War Horses were loaded into the Beast Capture Ring and then stored in Li Xie's Spatial Ring. Under the leadership of Arte Rayo, several people found a three-meter-deep, two-meter-wide cave to settle down.

  "You wait here, I'll go out and make arrangements. As soon as there's any movement, we'll rush out of the cave at the first opportunity, got it?" Yat Lei Yao said.

  A few nodded, while Brad Pitt piled up a stack of firewood and lit it on fire.

  Zayn sat on one side with his eyes closed, as if recalling his past life in the mountain cave.

  Dai Yat Lui Yeung returned, Li Xie took out fine wine and each poured a bottle: "Come, let's celebrate our great harvest this time!"

  "Cheers!"

  After drinking, Li Xie asked again: "Don't we go out tonight?"

  "It's no good going out at night. Our field of vision is limited, but the monsters' field of vision is much better than ours. Relatively speaking, it's really too dangerous at night."

  Li Xie actually wanted to say that he had "Dark Night Devil Eyes", and at night, he could see everything clearly. However, he definitely listened to the old hand, Aite Reiyao, because of the previous accident. Anyway, whatever Aite Reiyao said, he would do it, after all, his life was important.

  "War God is above!" Arte Rayo approached Li Xie: "Brother Xie, that..."

  He brought out the God of War again, and came over to be intimate with me, his face red with embarrassment!

  Li Xie glanced at him and had already guessed what he was thinking, shaking his head: "That medicine is called Shui Meng Xiang. To be honest, I only have one dose left, which is just enough to knock out a hundred people. Whether or not more can be made is still uncertain. If Brother Lei Yao wants it, wait until I return to Ju Hua City and see if I can get more. If I can make two more doses, I'll definitely give you one!"

  "Alright! It's settled then!" Arte Raveo raised his wine glass: "The value of this thing is not just in stunning magical beasts, but also in sometimes saving the lives of my subordinates. A mercenary's promise is worth a thousand gold coins; if I, Arte Raveo, use this Dream Incense to capture a magical beast, I'll unconditionally give it to the Evil Brothers!"

  "Haha... it's settled then." Li Xie still wasn't clear on what specific use Yate Rayo had for the Dream Fragrance, but with this statement, Li Xie would have to get him a few portions, free labor and all.

  "Evil brother......" Brad Pitt also chimed in: "That......"

  "Pete big brother also has a share! Brothers, sharing fortune and hardship together is what it means to be brothers!" Li Xie harvested over 100 seventh-tier magic beasts, feeling extremely pleased. He was the kind of person who never cared about material possessions, just like how he loved money but was very generous with it.

  "Brother, share the blessings and bear the hardships together! Haha! Well said, I acknowledge you as my brother!" Brad Pitt patted Li Xie's shoulder heavily. Mercenaries are like this, generous, unpretentious, and acting on impulse, as long as they take a liking to someone, their emotions can change in an instant.

  Li Xie looked at the two of them, and after getting to know them, found that Arte Raley was professional and trustworthy, while Brad Pitt was generous and refreshing. They were both people worth befriending. Moreover, Li Xie was also infected by Brad Pitt's heroic spirit, and laughed loudly: "We call each other brothers, but it's just a title. Why don't we become real brothers? What do you think?"

  "What does 'evil brother' mean?"

  "We'll die together like the Yellow Crane Tower! Let's make a pact!" Li Xie exclaimed, his emotions running high.

  "Good!" Brad Pitt also stood up.

  Yat Yiu Leung stood up and said: "Being able to be sworn brothers with both of you is a great fortune in life!"

  "Meow......" The little kitten lifted its front paws.

  Li Xie glanced at her and said, "Scram, this is only for human bonding, non-humans get out of here."

  "Meow!" The little kitten was furious, jumping up onto Li Xie's head and biting half of his ear!

  Art thou and Brad Pitt stared at each other: "She... she bit off half your ear!"

  "It's nothing, just a small matter, she's always like this!" Li Xie was often bitten by the kitten and had gotten used to it, losing a piece of flesh was just like being bitten by a mosquito.

  Art Ray and Brad Pitt both retracted their eyes at the same time, then bulged out: "Whoa! You... your ears grew!"

  "Oh, actually I lost my ears a long time ago. Those are fake, artificial ears." Li Xie said nonchalantly, picking up the kitten and tossing it to the ground. The kitten turned its head disdainfully and walked towards Zeinard.

  Zayn's eyebrows jumped, his cool face became somewhat bitter, he knew that his meow sister was in a bad mood, and he was going to be in trouble!

  Art Young and Brad Pitt rubbed their abnormally shrinking eyes, saying that strange things happen every year, but this is especially a lot! But also didn't go to entangle, only Brad Pitt said: "Evil brother, I don't have a curved chicken, nor do I have yellow paper, do you?"

  Uh...

  Essential equipment for becoming sworn brothers, yet there isn't any?

  Li Xie's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't! Looking at Ate Ray's awkward smile, it was clear that he didn't either!

  "We swear an oath of blood!" Arte Yatter sought another way.

  These words made Li Xie's mouth twitch twice; he was a vampire!

  "We'll make it more sacred with a divine oath! How's that?" Li Xie thought of a compromise.

  "Good!" The two agreed, and Li Xie said: "The generation will be divided by age."

  "Good!"

  And so, in this small cave, three giants from the future continent of Gods formally became sworn brothers.

  "Meng Da Shi is above! I, Li Xie, am willing to become sworn brothers with Arte Rayo and Brad Pitt, sharing fortune and hardship together, not betraying or abandoning each other. If anyone goes back on their word, the divine light will never shine again!"

  "God of war is above! I, Arte Rayo, am willing to make Brad Pitt and Li Xie sworn brothers of different surnames, sharing good fortune and adversity together, not betraying or abandoning each other. If anyone goes against this oath, the divine light will never shine again!"

  "God of war is above! I, Brad Pitt, am willing to make a sworn brotherhood with Art Ray and Li Xie, sharing fortune and hardship together, not betraying or abandoning each other. If anyone goes against this oath, the divine light will never shine again!"

  "Two elder brothers!" Li Xie grasped their hands: "Little brother is twenty-three this year, two elder brothers please take care of little brother from now on!"

  "I am eighty-one," Yat Yorath said.

  "I'm eighty, you're the big brother!"

  "Alright, you two brothers, come on, let's drink! Tonight we'll get drunk and then rest!"

  "Cheers!"

  The little cat next to them gazed at the three with disdain, letting out a cold hum from its nostrils. It looked at Zayn Nard with great displeasure and bit down on his finger, only to find that it couldn't pierce through his skin. Infuriated, she stretched out her claws and frantically scratched at Zayn Nard's arm.

  Zayn sighed and felt somewhat depressed: What's it got to do with me?
