heavenly powers, go to the location where the original Shanhai realm was, and wait there for your eldest brother's news."As soon as your eldest brother sends a message, you will immediately lead them...As soon as Ginger Cloud crossed this red line, he felt like entering another world. Not only did his surroundings suddenly grow dark, but a chill wind started blowing from somewhere, carrying the stench of blood and decay. It swirled around him, accompanied by a strange, mournful sound.

This sudden change did not cause Ginger Cloud the slightest fear. At this moment, although he looked expressionless, his bright eyes flickered with light. His whole body was slightly arched, and his breath was completely gone, like a beast poised to strike.

Although Ginger Cloud spent three days constantly searching for Lu Xiaoyu's whereabouts, she also found several kinds of medicinal herbs and fruits, even hunted down a ferocious beast, which finally allowed her physical strength to recover to its peak.

As for the injuries within his body, they had already healed for the most part. Nobody knew that besides being incredibly tough, his flesh had a healing ability that was frighteningly fast. Of course, this was all thanks to sixteen years of soaking in medicinal baths.

Maintaining such a posture and state, Ginger Cloud's figure seemed to transform into a wisp of light smoke, continuing deeper into the Tiger's Den.

The number of ferocious beasts here was noticeably less than within a hundred miles, but the level of the ferocious beasts Jiang Yun encountered was all above the seventh rank.

Naturally, this situation verified his previous guess. Within this trap forest, indeed all ferocious beasts above the seventh rank were confined within a hundred-mile radius.

Of course, Jiang Yun wouldn't fear these beasts. Let alone a seventh-rank beast, back when he was in Mangshan, he had even killed ninth-rank beasts. If not for the fact that he always kept Lu Xiaoyu in mind, perhaps he would have killed several more ferocious beasts, because beasts above seventh rank were treasures all over.

Especially after a ferocious beast reaches the seventh level, it might condense a beast core within its body, and the beast core is a necessary material for refining some elixirs.

Now he certainly wasn't in the mood to collect beast cores. He was still desperately searching for Lu Xiaoyu's whereabouts, so he avoided dangerous beasts as much as possible.

Unknowingly, Jiang Yun had crossed the red light boundary for a whole day. Before his eyes appeared a wetland of no small size.

Just like before, Jiang Yun's gaze casually swept over the swamp. However, at this moment, his body trembled violently because in the decaying leaves covering the swamp, he saw something!

Such a thing thoroughly shattered the last sliver of hope in his heart, and even made his body tremble uncontrollably.

That's a sachet!

Although it was dilapidated and still bore traces of blood, Jiang Yun recognized the sachet at a glance. It belonged to Lu Xiaoyu, and she had even worn it herself once.

"Smile Yu!"

With a gesture, Jiang Yun grasped the sachet tightly in his hand. His eyes were closed, as if he had become a stone statue, standing motionless.

Jiang Yun viewed death lightly, but that only applied to himself. It didn't mean he was indifferent to the deaths of others; in fact, quite the opposite was true. He took the deaths of those close to him more seriously than anything else.

In the mountains, death is inevitable. You never know if you leave the village today, whether you'll even make it back alive tomorrow.

Over sixteen years, Ginger Cloud had personally witnessed the deaths of many people in Ginger Village. Every time he saw this, his heart would be filled with sadness.

The more he sees, the less he can accept it. That's also why he's trying so hard to become a pharmacist.

He wanted to use his insignificant power to reduce the deaths of the ginger village people as much as possible.

Now, within this desperate situation, the reason he still refuses to give up searching for Lu Xiaoyu's whereabouts is because he cannot accept Lu Xiaoyu's death either.

But the sachet before him, and the gray scraps of clothing scattered around, were enough to prove that Lu Xiaoyu had died, killed by the beast, becoming its prey!

Above the swamp in front of Jiang Yun, several fist-sized bubbles suddenly emerged. And beneath those countless decaying leaves, a pair of blood-red eyes quietly peeked out, staring at Jiang Yun who stood there motionless.

After a brief silence, countless decaying leaves suddenly surged into the sky, like a whirlwind had been whipped up beneath the swamp. And within this whirlwind, a figure about a foot long was hidden, its bloody maw wide open, biting viciously at Jiang Yun.

"Bang!"

Like a stone statue, Jiang Yun suddenly made his move. He grabbed the figure's neck with one hand and slowly lifted its head. His blood-red eyes flashed with ferocity, and the hundreds of wounds on his body trembled violently. A powerful bloody aura emanated wildly from his being.

What Ginger Cloud held in her hand was a ferocious beast shaped like an alligator. Ginger Cloud knew this was a Mud Lizard, a seventh-order ferocious beast that liked to live in swamps.

Although I don't know what beast killed Lu Xiaoyu, since her sachet remains here in the swamp, this mud lizard certainly can't escape responsibility.

"Death!"

As soon as Ginger Cloud uttered that word, the hand that was gripping the mud lizard's neck suddenly tightened. With a sickening "crack," the seventh-rank mud lizard's neck snapped clean in two.

Another dull sound arose, and Ginger Cloud's other palm directly stabbed towards Mud Lizard's belly.

The palm sliced through the mud lizard's belly like a razor-sharp blade, effortlessly. A heap of colorful internal organs spilled out, including a bead the size of a lychee, the beast core.

Ginger Cloud did not look at the beast pill, but carefully examined the internal organs flowing out of the mud lizard's body. He even reached out and touched them without hesitation, pulling them until after a moment he frowned and said, "This mud lizard hasn't eaten in at least three days, it wasn't it!"

"Bang!"

Throwing the mud lizard's body aside, Jiang Yun suddenly sat down cross-legged, reaching out to grab his own arm. He slashed with all his might, five vicious wounds appearing, from which blood flowed freely.

Jiang Yun ignored the wounds on his body. Instead, he gathered his energy and closed his eyes slightly, murmuring, "Xiao Yu, I'm sorry! I'm late, but don't worry, I will avenge you. Starting with these beasts!"

The scent of fresh blood flowing from Jiang Yun's wounds began to spread in all directions. Gradually, ferocious beasts started appearing around him, but when they saw Jiang Yun sitting there, they didn't immediately charge forward. Instead, they each crouched in place, silently observing him.

Behemoths at the seventh level and above, though their intelligence cannot be compared to that of humans, possess some rudimentary sentience. They all naturally saw that the current situation was amiss, so none rushed forward.

The ferocious beasts stood still, and naturally, Jiang Yun didn't move either. He knew these beasts too well. He understood that if he lost his composure and attacked now, he could at most kill two or three of them. The rest would definitely flee without hesitation.

So he waited, waiting for the beasts to lose patience, waiting for them to make the first move.

First release percentage

Finally, when the number of beasts around had gathered to nearly thirty, suddenly, a faint, ghostly wail arose. All the beasts, as if possessed, charged furiously towards Jiang Yun together.

This scene caused a slight change in Jiang Yun's expression.

He wasn't afraid of all these beasts attacking at once. What concerned him was the strange sound just now, it was clearly an order, telling all the beasts to attack immediately.

It is not unusual for a pack of the same kind of beasts to exhibit such behavior, just as there is an alpha wolf among a wolf pack. Every kind of beast will have a leader.

Once the leader gives an order, the ferocious beasts naturally obey.

But, with almost thirty ferocious beasts surrounding them, at least twenty different species were represented, and several were even eighth or ninth rank. They actually obeyed the commands issued by this voice. But what was issuing the commands

Man, beast, or Beastmaster

This situation was completely beyond Jiang Yun's expectations, something he had never encountered before.

Suddenly, a sentence from Sha Jing Shan popped into Jiang Yun's mind: "Even the beasts in a trapped beast forest are not simple!"

But he didn't have time to think deeply, because a seventh-order ferocious beast had already charged towards him.and, really exceeded her expectations, and made her heart even heavier, afraid that someone would bid again and raise the price of this bloodline pearl.Looking at Jiang Yun again, he seemed calm and c...
