The spot where Chu Chen and the others were located happened to be in the middle section of the Earth Dragon Forest, and if they continued forward, they would enter the central area of the forest.
Therefore, they could only take a detour, but taking a detour would take at least half a day more, and in doing so, they might miss the opportunity to enter the Secret Realm this ti.
Lu Hongfei looked up at the sky. The Wild Force Golden Eagle was still circling overhead, showing no intention of giving up.
This left Lu Hongfei quite speechless. If it weren’t for the trouble caused by the Wild Force Golden Eagle, they could simply fly over.
Now, they could only hurry along the road, hoping the other party would leave soon.
In the middle section, with the strength of the Burning Fla Fierce Tiger, it wouldn’t say they could walk rampant, but no Star Beast would dare provoke them.
The Star Beasts of the tiger kind live up to being the King of the Forest. It moved through the forest without any hindrance, leaping over a dozen ters in a single bound, and sitting on its back, one would not feel a bump at all.
At such speed, they could reach the forest’s periter within an hour. By then, if the Wild Force Golden Eagle still doesn’t leave, they would have no choice but to fight it.
Soon after, a low roaring sound ca from the central area.
Though the roar was low, it was extrely penetrating, so even Chu Chen and the others in the middle area could hear it clearly.
Lu Hongfei’s expression changed upon hearing the roar, cursing his bad luck under his breath.
"What is that sound? Could it be the Molten Earth Dragon?" Chu Chen asked with so uncertainty.
Upon hearing this, Lu Hongfei’s face turned dark. He raised his hand and gave Chu Chen a slap on the head, grumbling, "Shut your crow’s mouth," before urging the Burning Fla Fierce Tiger beneath him to flee.
At that mont, the Burning Fla Fierce Tiger also disregarded the issue of stamina consumption, imdiately accelerating to its extre speed.
Its efforts weren’t entirely due to its owner’s urging; it also felt the terrifying pressure from the roar. This kind of oppression from a superior to an inferior was seemingly ingrained in its bones, and just hearing the roar made it tremble with fear.
At this ti, the Star Beasts in the middle area began to riot, abandoning their habitats and rushing toward the forest’s periter.
Chu Chen was puzzled by this, unable to comprehend why these Star Beasts residing in the middle area would flee, as the Molten Earth Dragon resided in the central area, and its foraging range should also be in the central area.
He wanted to ask Lu Hongfei; however, seeing his urgent deanor, he feared he wouldn’t pay him any mind.
He then looked toward Zhang Yuyan but shook his head right after. Her experience was not even on par with his own, so how could she possibly know?
Chu Chen stroked his chin thoughtfully.
A mont later, Chu Chen’s mouth curled into a slight smile, as he had found the answer.
The forest could be roughly divided into three parts: central, middle, and periter.
Guardian Beasts residing in the central area were the overlords of the forest and Star Beasts with slightly lower strength, essentially standing at the top of the food chain.
Guardian Beasts residing in the middle area were the backbone of the forest, with dium strength.
Star Beasts residing in the periter area were the foundation of the forest, an indispensable part of the ecological chain.
In essence, it’s big fish eating smaller fish; the central area is the center of power. When foraging, they typically target the Star Beasts in the middle area, while the Star Beasts in the middle area, when foraging, target the Guardian Beasts residing in the periter area.
Thus, when the Molten Earth Dragon forages, its first choice would be the middle area, which is the cause of the Star Beasts’ upheaval in that region.
At this ti, the Molten Earth Dragon let out another roar. This ti, Chu Chen and the others heard it even more clearly, indicating that its distance from them had gotten closer.
Lu Hongfei looked up at the sky to see the Wild Force Golden Eagle still circling in mid-air, which made him extrely irritated.
Speaking of it, they had no enmity with the Wild Force Golden Eagle; Zhang Yuyan’s Golden-eyed Fire Eagle had rely strayed into its territory, and during the chase, only received a slap. You’re a golden eagle without even a face, why cling on so tightly?
Soon, a rumbling sound suddenly ca from behind, the ground began to undulate up and down as if it was a magnitude ten earthquake.
Even before Lu Hongfei could urge it, the Burning Fla Fierce Tiger bolted like a cat whose tail was stepped on, its speed unexpectedly increasing further, leaving all the Star Beasts running alongside it far behind.
At this mont, the ground suddenly burst open, instantly covering the surrounding area with a cloud of dust.
Chu Chen turned his head to see a colossal black shadow erging from the ground, followed by the terrified screams of Star Beasts.
There wasn’t the slightest sense of post-disaster relief in the Burning Fla Fierce Tiger, its speed showed no sign of slowing.
At this mont, it had only one thought: escape. It seed to hover on the brink of death once, triggering its latent potential to be unleashed, its escape speed grew ever faster, leaving even so of the race-specialized Star Beasts behind.
Lu Hongfei saw this but wasn’t the slightest bit happy, showing an extrely grave expression instead.
As the owner of the Burning Fla Fierce Tiger, he was very familiar with his Guardian Beast.
Though the Burning Fla Fierce Tiger had terrifying explosive power, its endurance was extrely poor. Running at this speed, its stamina would be exhausted quickly; when that happened, they would be in danger.
If the Molten Earth Dragon gets full, they still have a slight chance of survival.
But if the other party isn’t full, then they are dood.
By this point, the swirling dust had gradually dissipated, and the blurry dark shadow in Chu Chen’s eyes was becoming clear.
When Chu Chen saw the full form of the Molten Earth Dragon, his eyes filled with intense fear.
The Molten Earth Dragon’s appearance was similar to an earthworm, yet its size was terrifying, and it had snake-like eyes and mouthparts.
It was about twenty ters long, with a width of about one ter. Its body was very slender, covered in lava-like fiery red armor, and its massive mouthpart was filled with densely packed teeth, which were extrely sharp. A re touch could easily tear through a Star Beast’s defense, the Star Beast caught in its jaws would instantly turn into a heap of minced at.
Having swallowed several Star Beasts, the Molten Earth Dragon showed no intention of leaving, clearly not yet satiated.
However, it did not continue to chase the fleeing Star Beasts, instead raising its head to the sky and letting out a roar.
The Wild Force Golden Eagle circling in the air felt a terrifying aura envelop it; if it dared to resist, it would face a catastrophic strike.
After uttering a low, mournful cry, the Wild Force Golden Eagle swiftly flapped its wings and flew towards the forest where the Bursting Flying Locust was located.
The Molten Earth Dragon seed satisfied, lowering its head to gaze at the fleeing prey, its eyes filled with a mocking expression. It let out a low growl and resud the chase after its food.
It really enjoyed the feel of hunting, each ti it foraged, it deliberately slowed its kill speed, slowly savoring the thrill that the hunt brought.
Lu Hongfei had been keeping an eye on the Wild Force Golden Eagle hovering overhead, and its sudden departure did not escape his notice.
