Chapter 299 - Chapter 299: Chapter 1: The Unknown Jungle (2/2)
Two giant tigers assumed attack postures, and it looked like a fight was about to break out.
At that moment,
a black shadow darted out at an extremely fast speed, arriving beside one of the giant tigers. As it swept past one of the tigers,
the tiger’s head exploded on the spot.
The other tiger, upon seeing this, lost all its previous momentum, tucked its tail, and was ready to flee.
However, the shadow was even faster.
Just as the tiger made a step, the shadow had already caught up.
Following that, the other giant tiger also “thudded” to the ground, silent.
Lin Jing watched this scene and fell silent at once.
He had recognized the black shadow as soon as it appeared.
It was the same ape-like Demonic Beast that had attacked him upon his arrival.
It seemed Lin Jing had been teleported into its territory.
Fortunately, Lin Jing had made some prior observations.
Otherwise, had he recklessly ventured out, it likely would have been another dangerous encounter.
Lin Jing then did not exit Observation Mode but continued to observe.
He saw the ape-like Demonic Beast fumble inside the battered skull of the giant tiger. Before long, it pulled out a black, spherical object.
Lin Jing recognized it.
It was indeed the Demonic Beast Inner Core of the giant tiger.
Following that, the ape-like Demonic Beast opened its mouth and tossed the Demonic Beast Inner Core into it.
It was at this moment, an unexpected change occurred…
A Golden Giant Eagle with a wingspan of several tens of meters cried out sharply and swooped down from the sky.
The ape-like Demonic Beast, upon hearing the cry, instantly became subdued.
It wanted to escape, and it was very fast…
In the blink of an eye, it had darted hundreds of meters within the dense forest.
Yet, the Golden Giant Eagle was even faster.
The ape-like Demonic Beast had only managed to escape this few hundred meters when the Golden Giant Eagle caught up.
The eagle’s talons were incredibly sharp, measuring over a foot long, and it pierced directly through the skull of the ape-like Demonic Beast with one swipe.
Then, with a flutter of its tens of meters long wings, it grabbed the ape-like Demonic Beast and flew up into the sky.
The ape-like Demonic Beast, after struggling for a while, hung limp and motionless beneath the eagle’s talons.
……
Lin Jing, having witnessed this scene, took a long time to recover his senses.
If he was not mistaken, that Golden Giant Eagle should be a Nascent Soul Level Demonic Beast.
This place was too terrifying.
Lin Jing couldn’t help but feel mixed emotions; he really wanted to ask Huang Qingling what place this was.
He just wasn’t sure if Huang Qingling knew.
Lin Jing speculated that Huang Qingling may not even be aware that his teleportation had gone awry, sending him to this incredibly dangerous forest.
Afterward, Lin Jing continued his observations and even tried to probe further into the distance.
However, even at the maximum range of Observation Mode, Lin Jing still did not obtain the information he desired.
After finishing his exploration, Lin Jing exited Observation Mode.
He then furrowed his brows to ponder his next strategy.
Firstly, he needed to figure out where this place was.
Whether it was part of the Eastern Spirit Realm or not.
Next, he had to find a way to leave this place.
The area was extremely dangerous; at the very least for Lin Jing, it was so.
Just the thought of the ape-like Demonic Beast, which had injured him with a single punch and was powerless under the eagle’s talons, made his scalp tingle.
Lin Jing knew the dangers here certainly extended beyond what he had seen.
In this unfamiliar dense forest, there were undoubtedly many more dangers awaiting him.
