Time is like sand through fingers, passing in the blink of an eye, and another half day has passed.
Wutan discovered a strange phenomenon. After a whole day, the white object in the sky did not move at all. The light was as bright as ever, without any sign of dimming, as if endless.
"Is there no darkness here?"
With doubts, Wutan continued on his way. When he walked a hundred miles, he stopped on a low hill.
Ahead was a dense forest stretching for hundreds of miles, with ancient trees and thick wild grass. However, there was not a single monster or beast around, not even a flying insect.
The reason is that this is the territory of a ferocious beast. According to the color marked on the map, this is a ferocious beast in the early stage of maturity. It is entrenched here and dominates the area.
Standing on the hill and staring ahead, Wu Tian asked, "Little guy, do you want to meet this lord?"
"No, I'm not interested in anything. Let's go directly to the Holy Land."
Ever since the Beast God and Beast King were mentioned, the little guy has been unhappy and depressed. He no longer chased monsters along the way and seemed to have lost interest in everything.
Wutan shrugged, feeling helpless, so he bypassed this area and slowly walked towards the center.
After two hours, Wutan stopped again and hid carefully in the grass, because there were two monsters blocking the way ahead, and the aura they exuded was far greater than that of the previous ferocious beast in its early stages.
Obviously, these two are ferocious beasts in the early stages of maturity.
"Golden-eyed beast, jade lion!"
Wutan frowned. These two ferocious beasts were actually rare ancient species.
The golden-eyed beast is shaped like a wild bull, with a huge body that is more than ten feet tall. Its entire body is covered with palm-sized scales, leaving only a pair of golden eyes exposed, like two lanterns, shining with dazzling golden light!
According to legend, the golden-eyed beast is extremely powerful, makes a sound like a cow's mooing, and has amazing defense. It is difficult for a cultivator of the same level to break its scales.
However, the most powerful thing about it is its pair of golden eyes, which can emit sharp golden light, like sword energy, capable of splitting mountains and cracking rocks. It is really powerful!
The other jade lion is also a powerful being, with a body of five meters long and three meters high, as if carved from top-grade jade. Although not as huge as the golden-eyed beast, its strength is no less than it.
Moreover, the jade lion is very fast, and is stronger than the golden thunder leopard next to Shishi.
Wu Tian asked in confusion: "What are they doing?"
The two beasts faced each other, roaring continuously, but they didn't look like they were going to fight. It seemed more like they were discussing something.
The little fellow jokingly said, "Mr. Frog has an extraordinary status and noble bloodline. They are just the lowest-level beasts. I don't understand what they are saying. Why don't you go and ask them?"
Wutan's face darkened. What a joke! These two ferocious beasts were both in the Hundred Dynasties Minor Success Stage. Going to ask them would be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth, seeking death!
"Huh?" Suddenly, the little fellow's pupils shrank, and then he suddenly became energetic and said excitedly: "Little Emperor, Grandpa Frog has a hunch that we are very likely to encounter treasure this time!"
"Treasure?"
Wu Tian was puzzled. The surroundings were covered with ancient trees, with vigorous vines and overgrown weeds that were several meters deep. It was obvious that this was a barren forest where few monsters and beasts had set foot.
A hundred feet in front of the two beasts, there stood a low mountain, almost a hundred feet high, and it was bare with only a few small trees swaying in the wind. Apart from these, there was nothing strange to be found.
The little guy smiled mysteriously and said, "Just wait and see."
The two beasts confronted each other for a moment, then suddenly turned around at the same time and walked towards the low hill with great force. With every step they took, the ground shook. Moreover, Wutan could see a strong sense of vigilance in the eyes of the two beasts.
The little fellow urged: "Little Emperor, follow them, be careful, don't let them find you."
Wu Tian was quite confused, but the little guy had always had a keen nose, and he didn't know if there was any treasure ahead, so he followed quietly.
The weeds, which are several meters deep, are perfect for hiding. As long as you don't release any scent, you won't be discovered at all.
When the two beasts came to the front of the low hill, they stopped and stared at each other again, roaring as if they were saying something.
Looking at this scene, Wutan became even more confused, but the little guy didn't seem to want to speak at all, which made him helpless.
"boom!"
Suddenly, the golden-eyed beast crashed headfirst into the small mountain. The powerful force caused the mountain to shake violently, but did not break the mountain wall.
Wutan's pupils contracted. The strength of the golden-eyed beast was at least over 300,000 pounds. According to common sense, the mountain should have been knocked down immediately after a full-strength attack, but only a tiny crack appeared at the impact site.
“There is a mystery!”
There is something a little unusual about this short hill. Maybe the treasure the little guy mentioned is inside.
"boom!"
As soon as the golden-eyed beast retreated, the jade lion stepped on the ground and rushed forward ferociously. The mountain shook violently again, and the crack suddenly became several inches larger and gradually spread to the surroundings.
Seeing this, both beasts roared in excitement, and then collided madly and continuously. The ground shook continuously and the sound spread in all directions!
The more Wutan watched, the more frightened he became. This was totally against common sense. Two monsters that had reached the Hundred Dynasties Minor Success Stage were unable to crash into a small mountain in such a short period of time. It was truly unbelievable.
Half an hour later, with a loud bang, a hole finally appeared on the mountain wall that was just big enough to accommodate the golden-eyed beast, while the rest of the place was intact.
"Hey, this is the moment I've been waiting for!"
The little fellow chuckled, turned into a ray of golden light, and rushed out.
The two beasts looked excited and were about to go in.
At this moment, a powerful aura suddenly erupted behind him. This was the pressure of the king of beasts, like a divine beast descending to the world. The huge bodies of the two beasts couldn't help but tremble.
"Roar… "
"Moo..."
The two beasts roared and burst into ferocity, which alleviated a lot of the pressure brought by the pressure, and then turned around at the same time.
The little fellow sneered, opened his mouth, revealing two rows of golden teeth, and flew away like a magic arrow.
Before the golden-eyed beast could turn around, the golden divine arrow transformed by the little guy pierced through its head with a "puff" sound, leaving it bright from head to toe, and blood spurted several feet away!
"Moo..."
The golden-eyed beast howled, and its huge body slowly fell down, hitting the ground with a bang. Its whole body twitched continuously, and there was a bloody hole in its head, and its brain matter mixed with blood spurted out!
"Roar!"
Seeing this, the jade lion became angry and frightened. It roared and ran away without looking back.
"Want to escape?"
The jade lion was very fast, but the little guy was even faster. In the blink of an eye, he caught up with it, turned into a ray of golden light, and passed directly through its head.
Moreover, after breaking open the heads of the two beasts, there was not a trace of blood on the little guy's body, and it was still so dazzling!
Clean and neat, the little guy is simply a violent wild beast, killing two small-stage ferocious beasts in seconds.
"Phew, that was a close call. I almost ran out of energy. I need to take it easy next time."
The little fellow let out a long breath, his eyes dimmed. In order to kill the two beasts with one strike, he had put in all his strength, and almost consumed all his power in just two strikes.
Wu Tian was really speechless watching from the side. After swallowing the Taotie, the little guy's strength increased significantly again. The distance between the two of them, which had been narrowed with great difficulty, was widened again. It was really frustrating to compare oneself with a frog.
Walking to the cave, Wutan grabbed a handful of soil. The texture was no different from ordinary soil. Then he punched with all his strength. As a result, the mountain wall just shook a few times without even a crack.
"Let's go and see what's inside."
After collecting the corpses of the two ferocious beasts, the little guy jumped onto Wutan’s shoulder and urged him to go in quickly.
With a slight frown, Wutan walked in. It was pitch black inside and nothing could be seen. The footsteps echoed and lingered for a long time. It should be an empty space, and not very big.
The little guy's body shone with brilliant golden light, illuminating the place brightly.
What I saw was a cave more than ten feet long and about five or six feet high. The walls and the ground were pitch black and very solid.
"Hey, little emperor, there seems to be a skeleton in the corner."
There was nothing in the cave, not even a bed, just a pile of bones piled up in a corner.
Wutan walked forward, bent down, and grabbed a hand bone, but as soon as he touched it, a large amount of ashes fell off and scattered all over the ground.
"The bones have become like this. This person must have been dead for a long time, at least a thousand years."
The little fellow was puzzled and said, "It's strange. How could there be such a cave in the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave? And judging from the solidity of the hill, it must be someone who used great magic power to turn decay into magic. This person must have had a very high level of cultivation when he was alive."
Wu Tian nodded and said, "Yes, the Cave of Ten Thousand Beasts is the holy place of Shura Palace. Logically speaking, if someone died in there, someone should have come to collect the body long ago."
"What's going on? There's nothing but a pile of bones. It doesn't make sense. If there were no treasure, why would the Jade Lion and the Golden Eyed Beast go to so much trouble to break open the mountain wall?"
The little guy looked around, then jumped to the ground and rummaged through the bones. Finally, he found a pitch-black mustard bag in the corner.
"Uncle Frog said there must be treasures. He lived thousands of years ago, so there must be a lot of good things in his mustard bag." The little guy twisted the mustard bag, grinning from ear to ear.
"Little Emperor, please move aside and see what treasures are inside."
Wu Tian shook his head speechlessly, stepped aside, and watched curiously. He was also very much looking forward to it.
As soon as he thought about it, the mustard seed bag began to glow, and sparkling essences flew out one after another, thousands and thousands of them, flashing with light. The rich essence immediately filled the place, and there was no need for the little guy to glow, the cave was illuminated like daylight.
However, the two did not look happy at all, but rather a little disappointed.
Suddenly, a fiery red light flew out, like a burning flame, and in an instant an extremely hot heat wave came towards me.
Both of them exclaimed: "The essence of the fire element!"
It’s not over yet, one, two… ten…
Fiery red light continuously flew out from the mustard seed bag, and the temperature in the cave was getting higher and higher. If it were not for the protection of the essence, the clothes would have been turned into ashes.
In the end, there were fifty fire element essences!
"Haha, fifty fire essences, I'm rich, I'm rich!"
The little fellow was so excited that he threw himself directly onto the essence of the fire element, drooling and his eyes shining, which was even hotter than the temperature emitted by the essence.
