Chapter 424 - Brilliant Use For the Spiritual Honey. Desert (2/2)
The next morning, Zhang Che and the frisky monkey continued exploring deeper into the beast world after eating their breakfast. This time, Zhang Che wasn’t planning on returning immediately.
First, he had yet to find a high-grade spiritual herb capable of levelling up the frisky monkey. Second, Zhang Che wanted to find another mid-tier epic-quality exotic beast or two to increase his combat strength.
Under such circumstances, naturally he wouldn’t leave this area just like that.
Zhang Che summoned the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, then jumped up on the dragon’s back along with the frisky monkey. They decided on a direction and sped off.
The further they went, the more Zhang Che felt like the number of exotic beasts in the area was getting increasingly scarce.
“Did I enter the territory of a powerful exotic beast?” Zhang Che narrowed his eyes slightly.
Of course he’d be happy to see such a situation. It’d be best if he encountered a mid-tier epic-quality exotic beast. That way, he’d be able to achieve one of his two objectives.
Of course, even if he accidentally barged into the territory of an overwhelmingly powerful exotic beast, Zhang Che wasn’t afraid.
He could transform into a weak exotic beast any time he wanted; he didn’t have to worry about drawing the attention of those terrifying exotic beasts.
Why would a fierce tiger care about an ant that came into its territory?
Of course, to prevent any unwanted accidents, Zhang Che ordered the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to slow down. That way, they could stop immediately even if they came into the territory of a powerful exotic beast and he would have time to transform and hide himself.
The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon flew about a dozen kilometers further. There weren’t any more decently powerful exotic beasts to be found in their surroundings. Even if any silhouettes appeared, they belonged to small low-tier exotic beasts, hiding in the mountain forests. They were nothing out of the ordinary.
Zhang Che grew excited. Whether he could obtain a mid-tier epic-quality exotic beast depended on what showed up next!
However, when the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon flew over another spread of mountains, Zhang Che’s expression suddenly froze.
“Damn, is this real? I was happy for nothing!”
Looking into the distance where the horizons met, it was actually a barren desert!
The desert spread without end, covering everything in his sight, completely blocking Zhang Che’s way forward.
It was only now that he realized it wasn’t that there was a powerful exotic beast ahead. Instead, the topography had suddenly changed. There wouldn’t be exotic beasts resting where two completely different terrains met.
But, this was too odd…
The lands under him were still that of a rich jungle, but the area not far ahead directly became that of a barren desert, with no transition area.
Something must be off when there was an anomaly.
Zhang Che immediately ordered the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to stop, no longer continuing forward.
“But, there shouldn’t be any powerful exotic beasts where the lands intersect with the desert. No matter which direction I change to, it won’t be easy to find a mid-tier epic-quality exotic beast.”
Zhang Che really wanted to turn around and leave, but he was already deep into this area. If he turned back just like that, he’d waste a lot of time.
His gaze shone for a long while. In the end, Zhang Che grit his teeth and directed the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to continue flying into the desert ahead. Since he was already here, he might as well go take a look!
Perhaps there would be the mid-tier epic-quality exotic beasts he was looking for in this extreme terrain…
As he entered the desert, Zhang Che felt a wave of heat suddenly sweeping over him.
“Strange. It’s like the two terrains were forcibly pieced together, with not one bit of transition.” Zhang Che knitted his brow slightly. He didn’t retreat and continued flying deeper…
