C61 (1/2)
The night passed peacefully. The next day, when morning arrived, the three people of Cang Yun's group began their journey into the depths of the forest.
The deeper they went, the higher the grade of the Spiritual Beasts. Moreover, Cang Yun's plan was to hunt for Rank 5 Spiritual Beasts. Therefore, he was still quite a distance away from that area.
Fortunately, the three of them had quite a decent cultivation base and their speed was quite fast. After two hours, they had gradually entered the outer regions of the Northern Green Wasteland. The numerous fierce beast roars from around them also entered their ears from a distance.
They understood that this place was different from yesterday's resting place. Currently, the surroundings were filled with Spiritual Beasts that were at least Rank 4 and above. Their existence was already quite a threat to their group.
Roar!
Suddenly, the roar of a beast resounded through the air. When they felt the trembling sensation on the ground, the three of them suddenly stopped.
”There are spirit beasts ahead.” Cang Ling's expression changed slightly as she stared into the depths of the forest. An unconcealable nervousness could be seen in her eyes.
”Judging from the power just now, it should be of quite a high rank.” Cang Yue's expression was also grave, the tension in her heart was not any lower than that of the Blue Spirit.
Seeing their reactions, Cang Yun shook his head and smiled, ”No need to be nervous, let's go and take a look first.”
Hearing that, Cang Yue and Cang Yun both looked at Cang Yun and nodded. The latter had a gentle smile on his face that gave off a calm temperament, as if he possessed some sort of magic, causing others to unconsciously feel at ease.
And at this moment, Cang Yue finally understood how important training was to a martial practitioner. That kind of self-confidence and calmness, was something that 'well-behaved kids' like her, who had been cultivating in the Spiritual Academy, would never learn.
”No wonder he doesn't regret entering the Blood World's trial ground. Although he wasted two years of his cultivation time, what he obtained was an even more valuable asset!” Cang Yun softly muttered in his heart as he watched the tall and straight back of the young man in front of him.
In the next moment, the three of them carefully followed the direction of the beast roar and felt their way over.
Not long after, Cang Yun agilely dodged to the back of a large tree. With such a familiar agility, it was obvious that he had a deep understanding of the forest, causing the two of them to gasp in surprise. After which, they swiftly followed behind Cang Yun, concealing their tracks.
”We're here.”
Cang Yun lowered his voice and said to the two people behind him.
In the next moment, the three of them revealed their heads. Their gazes followed the area outside of the forest and immediately became focused.
In the middle of the forest, there was a tiger type Spiritual Beast, several tens of feet tall, moving stealthily. From the looks of it, it was in the midst of foraging for food, this Spiritual Beast's entire body was covered with fiery hair, and on its head, a pair of tiger eyes was filled with brutality and viciousness.
”Rank 5 Spirit Beast, Scarlet Flame Tiger!”
From the appearance and aura of this Spiritual Beast, Cang Yun was instantly able to determine its identity. A faint smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth. Rank 5 Spiritual Beast was the target of his hunt this time around.
However, Cang Yun was in no hurry to make a move. He looked at the two people behind him, who were clearly nervous, and spoke in a low voice, ”Tiger type Spiritual Beasts are much more powerful in combat. You decide if you want to fight or not, if you want to give up, we can choose another Spiritual Beast to kill.”
Hearing this, Cang Yue and Cang Ling looked at each other, and after a moment of silence, they gritted their teeth and nodded in unison.
”Then that's it. With a stronger combat ability, the effect of the experiential learning will be even better.” Cang Yue's expression was resolute as she replied. Behind her, the Blue Spirit gave an affirmative reply.
”Alright, prepare yourself. Listen to my orders and attack.” Cang Yun smiled faintly, he was satisfied with the two's choice. For a martial artist, their lack of battle experience could be made up for by battle, but if they had a timid heart, then their achievements would not be too high. Fortunately, the two of them did not belong to the latter.
