Chapter 168: Traces of Warcraft
Their eyes are sharp and they are always alert to their surroundings, knowing that in this unknown land, any negligence could be fatal.
"Brother Xu, the goal we are looking for still seems out of reach."
Shangguan Jiannan finally couldn't suppress his anxiety and asked Xu Dakai beside him softly.
"Haha, don't worry, Brother Jiannan."
Feng Bowen laughed heartily, interrupting the dullness. "The Mighty King Kong Bear is a nearly sixth-level overlord. How could he show up so easily? Besides, we have only been here for a few days. Be patient, the best is yet to come."
Upon hearing this, the other team members also started to joke in a relaxed tone, and the atmosphere became lively for a while.
After several days of walking together, they have gone from strangers to familiar people, and the tacit understanding and trust between them have quietly grown.
Shangguan Jiannan's anxiety gradually subsided when he heard this, and was replaced by a stronger belief.
He knows very well that in this mountain range full of unknowns and challenges, only unity and persistence can illuminate the way forward.
So, the group set out on their journey again, with steadier steps and more determined eyes.
They shuttled through the dense forests, taking every step carefully and concentrating every moment, just for the unknown opportunities and challenges.
Broken Cloud Mountains, this ancient relic, is quietly waiting for them to unveil its mysterious veil.
Deep in the vast Duanyun Mountains, there are hidden relics of ancient sects such as the Netherworld, but what the world knows is only the tip of the iceberg.
Here, every inch of land may hide amazing treasures. The key lies in whether you have a pair of discerning eyes and rich exploration experience.
Feng Bowen, a seemingly ordinary young man, has become a key figure in the team with his outstanding jungle survival wisdom.
Although his eyes are a little cloudy, he can always capture extraordinary things in the details. Even the inconspicuous weeds on the roadside may be precious medicinal herbs.
Feng Bowen took every step carefully and meticulously, not missing any possible opportunity.
Among his fellow travelers, Shangguan Jiannan felt a spontaneous admiration for Feng Bowen.
Although Feng Bowen's cultivation is not outstanding, his deep understanding of nature and his adaptability are difficult to replace by any other skills.
Over the past few days, under the leadership of Feng Bowen, they had reaped a rich harvest, and the herbs they collected were enough to make everyone feel happy.
One day, the team took a short rest in an open area, and their tired faces could not hide the hardships of the long journey.
Fortunately, ample supplies and occasional game meant they didn't have to worry about food.
However, after a long period of exploration, there were no powerful monsters to encounter, which made power-type warriors like Lu Chuan feel a little dissatisfied.
The heavy shield on his shoulders is a symbol of his strength, but also a heavy burden on his shoulders.
Even so, he still maintained the same marching speed as the team, and his strength was astonishing.
Shangguan Jiannan secretly compared them. Although Lu Chuan was not as strong as Shidong, the difference in strength between the two was almost the same. This kind of talent was beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Seeing this, Xu Dakai could only smile bitterly and shake his head, lamenting that everyone was extremely anxious.
He reminded that the Broken Cloud Mountains were a place where many warriors gathered, and there were many explorers who went deep into it. The magical beasts around them might have been hunted down long ago.
In this mountain range full of unknowns and challenges, every step is full of variables.
But it is these unknowns that stimulate their desire to explore and make them cherish the cooperation and trust between each other even more.
If you want to encounter higher-level beings, in-depth exploration is imperative.
Xu Dakai's words echoed softly, and everyone fell into deep thought after hearing them.
The mountain wind was howling, but the surrounding atmosphere added an unusual tranquility.
The Yingfeng team's training in the Duanyun Mountains is not just a taste of the past. When Xu Dake said this, Feng Bowen's expression changed slightly.
This is the limit of our exploration. Going further is full of dangers.
Feng Bowen's words broke the silence. Normally, everyone would wander around here, occasionally encountering monsters of mediocre strength, and the gains would be limited.
As soon as these words were spoken, the air seemed to freeze and everyone fell silent.
Huh——Xu Dakai took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind. The path of a warrior is full of thorns.
Now that we have come this far, why should we be afraid to go further? He glanced at everyone one by one, his tone calm but full of power.
Before he finished speaking, new waves began to surge in the silent air.
"That's it! I'm actually looking forward to it."
There were no voices of opposition, but instead expectations and determination were quietly growing in everyone's hearts.
Seeing this, Xu Dakai raised his lips unconsciously, and then said firmly: "Okay, let's keep going!"
He stood up suddenly, his eyes flashing with the long-lost passion.
Years of conventional hunting career had almost wiped out the warrior blood in their hearts.
Now, a few simple words, like a spark that sets a prairie on fire, have reignited everyone's fighting spirit.
"Master Feng, you have the most experience, please give me more guidance."
Xu Dakai turned to Feng Bowen and spoke earnestly.
Feng Bowen blushed slightly, nodded in agreement, and assigned Lu Chuan to accompany him for protection.
Lu Chuan was sitting not far away, leaning against a heavy shield, and nodded slightly when he heard this.
At this moment, everyone's face was filled with excitement.
After a brief discussion and preparation, they embarked on a new journey, their hearts full of desire and anticipation for unknown challenges.
Without hesitation, everyone went straight into the heart of the dense forest.
Xu Dakai led the way, holding the broadsword tightly, moving forward cautiously and being vigilant of his surroundings.
Lu Chuan followed closely behind, with a huge shield across his chest, ready to defend against any attack at any time.
Shangguan Jiannan was at the center and was protected by everyone.
Lu Jing was at the rear, long stick in hand, guarding the rear of the team.
The target of this trip is a fourth-order monster, which is still a manageable challenge.
The mad bear has left the country, fortunately we were able to avoid its attack.
"If we encounter a fourth-level monster, this trip will be worth it."
Everyone pondered in their hearts, their expressions became more cautious, their eyes were sharp, and they did not miss any movement around them.
The five men walked slowly in the dense and deep forest, never letting down their guard.
Suddenly, the roar of the monster passed through the forest, low and shocking. Shangguan Jiannan showed surprise and walked more cautiously.
“Roar——!” A deafening roar suddenly arose, the jungle in front suddenly became chaotic, and the sound of trees falling down continued, echoing in the forest, extremely clear.
Everyone instantly became more alert and looked around, afraid of missing the slightest danger.
The loud noises continued, shocking everyone, and Shangguan Jiannan looked solemn.
After walking a few more steps, the ground was in a mess, a dark fire purgatory, and a crushing mark about half a meter wide was clearly visible, stained with blood, which was shocking.
"Traces of Warcraft!" Xu Dake exclaimed. Although his voice was soft, it could not hide the excitement in everyone's hearts.
After half a month of searching, they finally encountered the monster. Judging from its destructive power, its strength must be extraordinary.
