Chapter 213 - I Want to Eat It! (1/2)

It was another bright day.

Zhang Che laid on the platform on the mountain summit, sleeping without any shelter, and was woken up by the glaring light. He blinked his eyes, slowly sitting up, stretching himself.

Without a sleeping bag and a tent, the quality of his sleep was truly lacking.

Even though Zhang Che’s physique far exceeded any normal man’s, it wasn’t like he could just sleep soundly anywhere. The basic requirements for a sleeping environment applied to him, too.

When his groggy mind slowly cleared up, Zhang Che summoned the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon with a wave of his hand, then mounted him and headed towards the stream at the mountain’s foot. That area was almost as good as Zhang Che’s private plot of land now. His daily washing up and cleaning of exotic beasts was all done along this stream.

However, it wasn’t wrong to say that this area was indeed his private land, either.

Let alone the fact that there weren’t any notable strong exotic beasts in this area due to the pressure emanating from the skeleton, the exotic beasts had gone through some terrible times during the last few days. Other than some trash beasts that Zhang Che couldn’t care less about, the remaining exotic beasts he encountered were all wiped out.

Now, the difficulty of hunting exotic beasts around here had risen greatly!

After a simple wash up, Zhang Che took bites out of the fruits the Purple Crystal Tortoise spat out as he lamented to himself, “Looks like I have to go even further out to hunt now. God knows how many more exotic beasts I have to hunt to reach Tier Five. If I don’t work harder, who knows when I can ever return to the real world?”

After filling his stomach, he dragged the Purple Crystal Tortoise along and mounted onto the back of the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon, flying deeper into the mountain range.

If it was in the past, Zhang Che definitely wouldn’t dare to ride on the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon so ostentatiously. If some powerful exotic beast set its eyes on them, they surely wouldn’t be able to escape.

However, now that the Purple Crystal Tortoise housed that pile of a hundred and eight bone spikes with astonishingly high penetrative strength, which could even heavily injure a legend-quality exotic beast with just a single shot, Zhang Che no longer had anything to fear.

If his luck was truly bad and they encountered an even stronger exotic beast, the Purple Crystal Tortoise could still shoot all the bone spikes in one go. He didn’t believe that he still wouldn’t kill a strong enemy that way.

As for the divine-quality exotic beasts from the legends, Zhang Che didn’t think his luck would be so terrible as to bump into one of them. Unless he was looking for death and ran to the ocean shore when he first arrived, the chances of running into one were even lower than striking the lottery.

As the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon flew along, the mist surrounding him gradually thinned out. Zhang Che had him stop and descend towards a valley ahead with a thin layer of fog in the skies above it.

Zhang Che didn’t choose this valley at random.

When he was still high in the sky earlier, he vaguely saw silhouettes of a large group of exotic beasts moving around in the valley through the fog. It just so happened that the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon could no longer continue flying, so Zhang Che decided that it was good to come down and gain some experience while they waited for the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon to recover.

As the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon drew closer to the valley, Zhang Che saw the the group of exotic beasts more clearly.

They were large crawling creatures that resembled Chinese giant salamanders. Their bodies were around six to seven meters long, their skin brownish-black in color, giving off a smooth luster. Seeing the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon descending from the sky, every one of them raised their heads warily, cautiously sizing up this creature.

“Hmm? There’s actually water in this valley!”

It was only now that Zhang Che realized this wide valley covered in a layer of thin fog actually had an extended lake in its inner section, like several ponds of various sizes connected together.
