Chapter 959: Beast Tide
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Star beast king? No way!” Paine exclaid loudly. “Do you know that a star beast king is as powerful as a high-level cultivator? Even a heavily injured one can wipe us all out with a lift of its finger!”
“It is heavily injured... It’s nothing more than a sitting duck now!” Wu Sanhuai rubbed his brow. “Anyway, we’re just investigating its whereabouts. Once we’ve confird it, we’ll contact Sir Wu Wudi imdiately. With him around, nothing will go wrong!
“Anyway, I’m not afraid of telling you guys. This ti, our Wu family has put everything into this operation to track the beast down. The region I’m in charge of is Moon Jaw Lake!”
“Moon Jaw Lake?” Lu Qiming frowned. “That’s really deep into the Wasteland, and we haven’t been there before!”
The deeper they went into the Wasteland, the more dangerous it was!
“With Green Leaf Squad’s abilities, reaching Moon Jaw Lake won’t be a problem. Moreover... I’m here with you.” Wu Sanhuai sounded quite proud.
Beatrice pretended to pause for a mont, but she agreed quickly. “No problem. Let’s head out imdiately!”
“We’re heading to Moon Jaw Lake!”
However, Sun ngng was very worried. After all, this was her first ti in the Wasteland, and she was going to travel deep into it, leaving her terrified.
“Relax, I’m here!” Wu Sanhuai laughed heartily. “I’ll escort you, and you can kill so star beasts on the way to gain extra credits and experience!”
...
After they reached the forest region, they could not use the tank anymore and could only travel on foot.
“Junior, there’s sothing strange!”
Fang Yuan was using the Featherweight Body Spell and trailing behind the squad. Sun ngng approached him and said quietly, “A star beast king is a terrifying monster that’s equivalent to a level fifteen Mystic or above, and it has the intelligence of a human. Why is Wu Wudi obsessed with it?
“There’s only one possibility. This star beast king has sothing imnsely beneficial to others!”
...
“Your analysis is very logical. But now that we’re here, there’s nothing we can do other than follow them,” Fang Yuan replied sowhat nonchalantly, leaving Sun ngng absolutely speechless.
Soon, it turned dark, and the entire party set up their military tents. After eating so canned food, they retired to rest.
Lu Qiming and Paine saw Wu Sanhuai enter Beatrice’s tent and ground their teeth silently.
Fang Yuan could not be bothered with their relationships. When it was late at night, he used his Breath Holding Technique and left the campgrounds alone deeper into the forest.
“Sure enough, the freedom between the vast heaven and earth is the best!”
A jet-black, giant shadow appeared behind him. It opened both arms wide and grabbed at the sky.
Rumble!
A terrifying amount of energy particles accumulated, extending for over a hundred kiloters at once. It turned the surroundings into a vacuum as the spiritual energy turned into a long lake that flowed straight into the black shadow.
On the stats window, his power recovered began to accelerate rapidly.
“Absolutely... thrilling!”
In the school, even the smallest commotion would attract the Undead Immortals’ attention, leaving Fang Yuan quite irritated.
Now that he could absorb as much as he liked, he felt liberated. He was not going to pass up this opportunity!
He channeled Scientific Cultivation’s most basic technique at full power, greedily absorbing the universe’s dense energy.
Crack!
Within his dantian, a crisp sound resounded. The concentration of energy particles increased rapidly, turning into mist and then condensing again before turning into flowing liquid.
Spiritual power liquefying! This was the trademark of ancient cultivation’s Foundation Establishnt stage!
With only one session, he used the most basic technique to break through the bottleneck of level five Mystic, entering level six!
Moreover, Fang Yuan did not stop using the technique at all, indulging in this feeling for a long ti.
Soon, a light rumble resounded again, and his cultivation broke through to level seven Mystic!
In one night, he raised his level by two! Compared to Fang Yuan, Wu Wudi was nothing more than dirt in the mud.
“Breath Holding Dao Art!”
The energy particles within hundreds of kiloters were enough to form an energy tide and create a huge commotion. Without hesitation, Fang Yuan used his newly-obtained Breath Holding Dao Art, restored his state as a level two Mystic, and quickly returned to the campsite.
“What’s happening?”
The campsite was stirring.
Sun ngng and the others ran out of their tents. Looking ruffled, they gazed at the sky.
“This is... an energy tide?” Wu Sanhuai stepped out of his tent and looked at the sky. “Did you realize that the spiritual energy around us has suddenly dipped? This ans that either a special treasure or a great beast has erged!”
“Treasure? Great beast?”
Beatrice’s eyes flashed with greed and fear.
“Cough cough...” Fang Yuan suddenly coughed as if it were not his fault. Instead, he reminded them. “For a tide of this level, will it attract the star beasts in the forest?”
“Damn it! We have to go now!” Wu Sanhuai’s expression changed. “This level of change will attract the star beasts!”
Kaboom!
As if he had sounded the alarm, loud rumbling noises started echoing as though the sky were falling.
Dark shadows rustled in the distance like a mirage, seemingly charging straight toward them.
“That’s... the star beast, snow-shadow leopard. It’s equivalent to a level five Mystic, and there are actually five of them!”
“There’s also the raging bear. It has tough skin and thick flesh, giving it very high defense. I can’t believe there’s such a large group!”
...
As Lu Qiming and Paine identified the star beasts in the beast tide, they felt their scalp go numb.
“Dragon lizard?”
However, Wu Sanhuai stared at a huge, lizard-like figure in the center. Suddenly, he turned and began dashing away.
“Dragon lizard? A star beast at Foundation Establishnt?”
Beatrice was not concerned with Sun ngng and the others as she followed close behind.
“Run!”
Lu Qiming and Paine did not have the intention to save anyone. Instead, they used their techniques and quickly disappeared.
Thankfully, it was just a small star beast tide. As long as they ran in a different direction, it would not be a huge issue once the star beasts cald down.
Sun ngng ran hastily while asking breathlessly, “Why... aren’t you flying away?”
“If you fly, it’ll be easy for you to turn into the star beasts’ target. In any case, the sky in the Wasteland is much more dangerous than land!” Fang Yuan replied casually, looking unfazed.
Luckily, they escaped in ti, leaving the beast tide without any problems.
After running a certain distance, Fang Yuan regrouped with Beatrice and the others. However, they suddenly heard a series of fighting noises and imdiately exchanged worried looks.
“They’re probably university students who ca to practice!” Beatrice affird.
Within Planet East Dragon’s Wasteland, if soone was not a Mystic, it would be impossible to survive.
“It seems like they’re in trouble. It sounds like they’re up against so star beasts.”
Sun ngng looked around the surroundings.
“According to the rescue guidelines, we should take a look at the situation regardless...” Beatrice sighed.
This was expected of the human elites. If it were the ancient demon sects, they would encourage battle and killing one another.
Within the cultivation universities, there were compulsory ethics classes that explained various regulations. For instance, a cultivator could not interfere with ordinary people’s lives and have personal battles. When they t soone in danger in the wild, they had to do everything within their power to save the other...
“Hmm!”
Fang Yuan traveled through so cover and stood on a large tree. Glancing about, he spotted the situation.
There was indeed a small squad on the ground. They were fighting with two snow-shadow leopards.
“Judging from their uniforms, they are a mixed university squad. There are people from Vajra ditation and Fengwu Nine Heavens Academy!” Beatrice explained. “However, they look like newbies. There’s only a level five Mystic leading them. I can’t believe they dared to explore the Wasteland like this. Of course... they’re pretty unlucky to have t a beast tide!”
Hearing this, Fang Yuan could not help but rub his nose.
In reality, he was the culprit behind it.
In particular, he got people he knew caught up in it, making it a little awkward.
“Marianne, you go first! I’ll fight them!”
Huang Tianba’s upper body shone with a tallic glow, making him look like a copper statue. The snow-shadow leopard slashed at his body with its claws. However, only several streaks of blood appeared, while his vitals remained intact. He held a snow-shadow leopard down securely.
“Are you dumb? With my cultivation, running away and encountering any star beast is death!”
Marianne waved the green vine in her hands and quickly healed Huang Tianba’s wounds. “We’ll only survive if we work together!”
Poof! Poof!
Suddenly, a soft rustling noise ca from the air.
A mont ago, it was still blustering. But the snow-shadow leopard suddenly fell to the ground, and a pool of blood gathered under its body.
“We’re saved!”
Seeing the human figures before them, Huang Tianba cheered. He stepped forward and saluted respectfully. “I am Huang Tianba. Many thanks for your help, benefactor...”
All of a sudden, he glowed with surprise, staring wide-eyed at Fang Yuan “Boss Lin ng, you’re here too?”
“Yep!” Fang Yuan laughed. “Congratulations on becoming a Mystic. However, your levels are too low to be out here...”
“Er... since I needed credits, I had no choice but to co! Anyway, we only intended to hunt on the outskirts, and we brought a lot of people. Theoretically, nothing should have gone wrong, but we were unlucky enough to have t a beast tide...” Huang Tianba complained.
While he was complaining, on another battlefield...
Wu Sanhuai retracted his palm and looked at the mountain of corpses on the ground. He sneered. “At least I could let off so steam!”
“I am Li He. Thank you all for helping us. After we return, I will definitely report this matter to the school!” said the level five Mystic solemnly.
Lending a hand in the wilderness like this would yield great benefits. This was also a part of the regulations.
“It’s great as long as you guys are all right!”
At this ti, Beatrice was sent out to socialize. With a smile, she chard the little fatso, Huang Tianba.
Li He paused for a long ti before asking abashedly, “However, we’ve lost one of our juniors from Fengwu Nine Heavens Academy, Ling Fei’er. I wonder if you could help us search for her.”
