Lu Hanmo walked along, surveying his surroundings, the forest here was thick with dense undergrowth. Ravines crisscrossed every which way, with clouds of smoke rising up from within them at times, swirling fog adding a mysterious oppressiveness amidst the silent woods.

Picking up the pace, Lu Hanmo moved quickly through the forest.

"Awoo!" A spine-chilling roar suddenly pierced the air.

Lu Hanmo looked in the direction of the noise, only to see a massive, two-headed beast with a pair of large wings on its back. It somewhat resembled the legendary pterodactyl, except it had an extra head.

Lu Hanmo's eyes narrowed, and he instantly became alert. He hadn't expected to encounter such a monster here.

The two-headed monster spread its wings and lunged at Lu Hanmo.

Lu Hanmo's figure flashed like lightning, dodging the two-headed monster's attack while the Attack Talisman he held was already thrown at it.
