Chapter 640: Virtual world (2/2)

Jin Luo explained to the empress, “This is the hunting area of the southern outskirts.The wilds of the Miracle Continent can be divided into hunting areas and wild areas. The wild area has an ecosystem like the real world, with a normal biological chain.The hunting areas doesn’t have a biological chain. After the monsters die in the hunting area, as long as a period of time pass, they will naturally respawn. It is a special place for us to hunt.”

“We’ll use this region as a starting point and we’ll begin to explore the continent.”Nangong Yun raised her giant axe and charged forward like a ram, “I’ll kill one first before talking!”

Wild sheep were the weakest monsters.

If a wild sheep in the real world saw an orc raising a giant axe charging at it, it would run away without even thinking about it.But this hunting area was for people to hunt prey, so it couldn’t be filled with creatures running around, right?

“Ba, ba!”

The sheep called out and raised its horn to attack.

Although Nangong Yun’s cultivation was very weak now, it wasn’t like she couldn’t beat a sheep.She quickly knocked the sheep to the ground, but her body was covered in several wounds.

After the sheep died, its corpse scattered into balls of light and there was only a pair of sheep horns left on the ground.Nangong Yun picked up the horn and happily said, “Ha, ha, there’s loot!”

The Wind Moon Empress felt this was very novel.

The monsters would drop loot as soon as they died.

These things could be taken to the city to exchange for resources or used to create equipment or medicine.This kind of method of slowly increasing one’s strength, even if an emperor wanted to become stronger, they could only use this method.So, each person needed to spend the same amount of time, there was no shortcuts at all.

“Let’s go!”

They began to hunt prey, killing sheep, bulls, wolves, and alligators.The more monsters they killed, the more loot they had. These monsters would mainly drop refining items, but they also dropped herbs, which was a very precious resource in the beginning.

But when they went deeper into the grasslands.

There was suddenly a powerful roar that swept over them.

Vivian’s expression fell, “This is bad, a big monster has appeared!”

Before they could get their guard up, there was a golden lion that jumped out of the grasslands.It was over two meter tall and had a powerful body, releasing a mighty aura.

“Damn!Everyone run!This is an elite 9th Body Refinement Layer monster!”

Everyone quickly turned to run.

The Wind Moon Empress knit her slender brows, “Just a trivial 9th Body Refinement Layer monsters and you want this empress to run?Where would this empress’ prestige go?”

Chu Tian said to her, “You are only a little cultivator of the 1st Body Refinement Layer!Is dying better than not having any face?”

The Wind Moon Empress felt this was reasonable, running was better than being killed, but it was already too late.The golden lion sent a beam of energy out its mouth that landed on her body. The empress was shattered to pieces with a cry of shock and disappeared without a trace.

The respected empress was actually killed by a level one demon beast!

The others couldn’t escape either, after all, the difference in strength was just too big.The golden lion caught up and with a single slap for each person, they were all sent to heaven.

There was no true death on the Miracle Continent, but when a character died, they could only revive after seven days.Of course, one could use source stones to quickly revive and the amount was based on the character’s cultivation. A character in the 1st Body Refinement only cost five source stones to revive, so everyone revived without hesitation.

The Wind Moon Empress appeared in front of everyone with a face covered in embarrassment and anger, “This weak level one demon beast, if this was the real world, even if there were ten thousand of them, this empress could destroy them with one finger!I never thought that I would be killed by them here!”

“Empress, don’t be angry!”Vivian quickly comforted her, “We have gathered large amounts of resources, we can exchange them for pills later that can increase our strength.”

“Right, right, right!”Nangong Yun also said, “We don’t have to go to the wild, there are over a hundred trial towers in the Sacred City.We can go try out the trial towers, that way there will be a greater chance of getting herbs and we might even obtain rare cultivation techniques.When we become stronger, it won’t be too late to take revenge!”

The empress’s anger had already disappeared and it was replaced by interest for the continent, therefore she had a large interest in trying out the trial tower.She looked at Chu Tian, “City Lord, come with us.”

“I won’t participate this time.”Chu Tian gave a helpless shrug, “You all know, my wedding isn’t over yet, I don’t have that much time to play with you.Isn’t that right? Yingying!”

The empress was very disappointed.

Forget it, one or two people won’t matter.

The empress directly ignored him and impatiently said to the others, “Then let’s go!”

“Alright!”Vivian and Nangong Yun were people who loved to play.Meng Qingwu, Jin Luo, and the others had nothing to do right now.This group of people formed a small exploration team and headed to the closest trial tower.
