Xu Xiaolan and Xuanyuan Cheng's teams didn't come back to Ding'an City . Clearly, they planned on spending their night out in the wilderness .
People who were strong were naturally braver .
After all, with the power they possessed, there were already very few mutant beasts which could threaten them .
Resting in the wilderness meant that they could save the time needed to return back . As such, they would also be able to hunt more mutant beasts .
The only reason that Su Qianyun returned was in order to give An Lin the beast core .
The next day, An Lin's team set out again .
This time, they killed whatever beast they came across, sweeping away all obstacles in their path .
“Xiao Chou, dispose of this Thunder Leopard!” An Lin yelled .
Dashing at a speed faster than the Thunder Leopard, the Golden-Eyed Monkey King's body became a streak of light as his staff smashed down .
Boom!
Mutant beasts killed+1 .
“Xiao Chou, those two White-Boned Wolves are laughing at us, finish them off!”
The Golden-Eyed Monkey King's staff lashed out with ferocious power, shattering the bodies of the two White-Boned Wolves .
Mutant beasts killed+2 .
Behind An Lin, Miao Tian was humming a catchy tune, Zong Yongyan was yawning, and Sun Shenglian was holding a makeup mirror and combing her hair out .
Apart from Luo Ziping who was itching to do something useful, everyone else was completely bludging…
“Monkey Brother, you are so great . Wuxing mountains can't contain you, out leaped Monkey Sun… 1 ”
An Lin also started humming a tune .
As if finding a kindred spirit, Miao Tian's eyes lit up . She ran next to him and also started humming, “When there're troubles, we think of you~ Where there're dangers, we've got bro! Battle-seasoned, leading the charge~ Condemn evil, uphold virtue, heart of a Buddha! Your name is spread and known~ Your story is spoken and told…”
Hearing this tune, Xiao Chou's emotions surged, and he put even more effort into his battles!
Just like that, another day passed .
In this day, An Lin's team slaughtered thirty-six mutant beasts .
This was a pretty decent result . What more…
It was all done by Brother Monkey!
With Brother Monkey providing support, they didn't return to Ding'an City this night . Rather, they set up camp where they were .
Zong Yongyan and Miao Tian were skilled with spell formations, so they were in charge of setting up defensive and warning spell formations around the camp .
After setting up the spell formations, everyone sat around a campfire and started roasting meat .
Today's main course was the Six-Winged Bird which they caught at dusk .
Six wings… Just enough for six grilled wings .
Moreover, they were super large grilled wings, with each wing weighing a few pounds!
They sat around the raging campfire, and each of them held a massive wing which they kept flipping and turning over .
Xiao Chou was an expert at roasting meat, and he helped everyone add spices to their wings . At the very end, he also drizzled oyster sauce onto the wings .
The wings cackled in the scorching flames, and they slowly became golden brown . The tender and juicy meat started exuding a mouth-watering aroma, one that was unique to roasted meat .
Miao Tian couldn't hold on any longer and took a bite out of the fragrant wing .
Her eyes lit up . “The skin is charred and crispy, and the meat inside is tender and tasty . It's delicious!”
Hearing this, the others couldn't contain themselves anymore and started chewing on the wings .
An Lin bit into his wing . Because he added some chili powder, there was also a tang of spiciness .
He could taste the delicious flavor on the tip of his tongue . Being the meat of a mutant beast, it was also slightly chewier .
That taste… was absolutely amazing!
And thus, everyone sat around the campfire while chowing down on their wings .
Even Miao Tian—who had the smallest stature of them all—almost finished the entire gigantic wing by herself . What more, Xiao Chou even chowed on the bones .
After dinner, An Lin laid down in satisfaction and gazed at the starry sky .
The stars in this world were beautiful .
Looking closely, he could even make out a galaxy stretching across the skies .
“Big Brother An, are you gazing at the stars and thinking about life?” Miao Tian was licking the sauce off her fingers, and there was a look of craving on her face .
She was dressed in pink daoist robes, and with short black hair and an extremely pretty face, she appeared especially dainty and adorable .
For some reason, seeing Miao Tian right now reminded An Lin of Earth's Tian Lingling .
“I grew up on Earth and only recently found out that Earth was created byNuwa 2 . The reason that we need to descend into the mortal world is in order to maintain the stability of that world,” An Lin said slowly .
Hearing this, Miao Tian blinked at An Lin, unsure of why he suddenly started mentioning these things .
“Tai Chu Continent is gigantic, so gigantic that even till now, there's no complete map of it,” An Lin continued .
“The textbooks say that Tai Chu Continent is the cradle of all matter, created by Pangu when he separated the sky from the earth . There can be countless small worlds, and there can be countless mystic realms . However, there can only be one great world .
“I'm just thinking… who defined Tai Chu Continent to be as such? Is this definition truly the reality?”
Miao Tian yawned . She didn't expect him to be mulling over such boring questions . This question was as boring as asking 'where am I from, to where will I go' .
“Won't you know whether this definition is true or not if you just go and ask Pangu?”
An Lin: “…”
Sure, why not just tell him to go ask the heavens .
After pondering about life for a while, An Lin returned to his tent for some rest .
The night passed peacefully .
The next morning, they continued on their journey of hunting mutant beasts .
Today, Luo Ziping's fists craved blood . He partnered up with the Golden-Eyed Monkey King and together, they slaughtered the mutant beasts . The other four people remained as bludgers .
With the addition of Luo Ziping, they should have been able to slay more beasts .
After a day's work though, they only managed to kill twenty-six mutant beasts, a full ten fewer than the previous day .
They were wandering throughout the depths of the Myriad Mountain Realm, and logically speaking, they should have come across a lot more mutant beasts . For some reason though, it felt like there were even fewer mutant beasts here compared to the region earlier .
That night, they couldn't find the delicious Six-Winged Bird . Instead, everyone started chewing on the meat of a Savage Golden-Footed Ox .
“Sigh, why are we so down on luck today? Could it be that my choice to fight alongside Big Brother Chou was wrong?” Luo Ziping asked bitterly . He chewed on his beef miserably .
“If there's an extremely powerful beast nearby, then the density of mutant beasts will also decrease . Could it be that we entered the territory of some Spirit Beast or Soul Beast?” Zong Yongyan asked anxiously .
Hearing this, everyone fell deep into thought . It would be fine if they came across a Spirit Beast, as they were not fearful of such a beast .
However, if by any chance it was a Soul Beast of the Soul Formation Stage, then they would be in grave danger .
The next morning, An Lin and the others had a brief discussion and decided to take another route .
When noon arrived, they had only killed thirteen mutant beasts . At this rate, their results would be even worse than yesterday .
“What the hell? Have the mutant beasts all been frightened away?” An Lin was bewildered .
Right at this moment, however, Xiao Chou suddenly bent down and put his ear to the ground .
Then, he rode a cloud into the skies, his golden eyes blazing as he looked into the distance .
“What the hell indeed! It's a beast tide!” he yelled .
Seeing the stampede of beasts in the distance, the Golden-Eyed Monkey King's expression changed drastically .
