The eerie roar of monsters came from the deep jungle.
"Boom! Boom!"
The sound of heavy footsteps came one after another in the quiet night. Judging from the heavy sound of the steps, there should be humans running quickly.
Chen Fan couldn't tell whether the warriors were hunting monsters or the monsters were hunting humans. Chen Fan couldn't tell the difference, but he didn't want to get involved in the melee. He said to Yalan: "Stop, don't interfere in this matter, remember the Phantom Troupe's Lessons from failure.”
Yalan nodded lightly and whispered to Mu Ge who was hiding in the tree hole: "Be silent and stay in the tree hole."
"Quickly, let's find a lush tree to hide in." Chen Fan thought for a moment and acted quickly. He soon found an ancient tree with dense branches and crouched down.
As soon as he squatted down, Yalan followed him and hid with him under the cover of leaves.
At this moment, Chen Fan was focused, monitoring the surrounding activities with all his concentration. He clearly understood that in this forest, even the slightest movement could turn into a scourge. Both he and Yalan must tighten their nerves at all times and be alert to their surroundings.
The two of them peeked around through the gaps in the leaves, calmed down their minds, and collected their auras, hoping that their existence would disappear in the quiet night in the forest.
Not long after, five panicked mercenaries ran past from a distance with messy expressions.
Their bodies were covered with scars. The leader had the cultivation level of Qi Condensation Realm, and the other four were all in the Qi Gathering Realm.
These five people seemed at a loss. Although both sides were injured, they still ran away with all their strength. They also looked back from time to time to check, as if they were afraid of being chased by some pursuers.
as expected!
Only five people broke into Chen Fan's sight, and he saw a "Cloud Fire Python" and two "Ice Lizards" galloping in the forest. There were as many as basins of "Silver-backed Poisonous Scorpions", and from those five People from the left swarmed out, surrounding the five people as if they had arrived.
The five people looked anxious and continued to move forward in the forest at a loss.
Chen Fan's expression changed and he felt depressed. They were in a crisis.
The five people seemed to be "safe" for the time being, but Chen Fan clearly saw that in front of the five people running away, there was a silver wolf with a strong body of four meters staring at Dandan!
There are two dazzling silver feathers about five or six meters long growing on the body of the silver wolf. The wings are covered with magical patterns, full of mysterious and eye-catching aura.
Although it was the first time he saw this silver wolf, Chen Fan had already heard its name. This was the "Thunder Wing Silver Wolf", a seventh-level monster. As the top master of the food chain in the Dream Dark Forest, its existence was unrivaled!
The moment he saw the "Thunder Winged Silver Wolf", Chen Fan immediately realized that this battle was not about mercenaries hunting monsters, but... the monsters were viciously preying on humans!
The bloody hunting quickly kicked off!
When the five of them stepped into the depths of the forest and witnessed the "Thunder Winged Silver Wolf" that they had been waiting for for a long time, they suddenly fell into deep despair, and piercing screams filled all directions.
The actions of the "Thunder Winged Silver Wolf" were not merciful at all. The silver wings spread out and a deafening thunder burst erupted in an instant. Three of the five people were tragically struck by lightning and disappeared into thin air!
The "Thunder Winged Silver Wolf" stood proudly on the spot, unmoving and no longer chasing.
However, the other demonic beasts that were chasing each other rushed forward one after another and instantly surrounded the remaining two people.
Under the joint attack of "Cloud Fire Python" and "Ice Lizard", the two people were trapped. One was poisoned by the "Silver Back Scorpion" and the other was bitten to death by the "Ice Lizard".
"Crunch!" "Crunch!"
A series of frightening sounds came from the silent forest. That was the sound of monsters enjoying their prey. They were enjoying this bloody feast.
Except for the "Thunder Winged Silver Wolf", the other monsters also approached the remains of the five mercenaries, gnawing at their bones hungrily.
Yalan looked horrified and turned her head quickly, not daring to look at that scene again. She had no fear of killing, but the scene of the beast's brutal cannibalism made her feel intolerable, deeply triggering her hatred and making her want to vomit.
Chen Fan, as if falling into an abyss, calmly observed these monsters through the cover of leaves, while silently calculating in his heart.
The five mercenaries died. The essence in their bodies will gradually dissipate and will eventually be scattered in all directions as time goes by. If he could take the opportunity to approach that area before all the energy dissipated, he might benefit from it!
However, the monster beasts in front of him were like wolves and tigers. He did not dare to act rashly and could only hope that those monster beasts would leave as soon as possible.
"Uh-oh..."
The desperate screams of humans could be heard in the distance, the sound was horrifying and heart-chilling. The "Thunder Wing Silver Wolf" who was standing still suddenly let out a deep roar and rushed out like lightning.
Several monster beasts that were enjoying the hunting feast immediately threw away the corpse after the low roar of the "Thunder Winged Silver Wolf" and quickly followed it out of the jungle. They seemed to be looking for another more abundant meal. prey.
Seeing the monster beasts leaving one after another, Chen Fan, who was waiting among the leaves, immediately jumped down from the tree and ran towards the messy corpses on the ground like a ghost.
Yalan was so frightened that she screamed. She shouted nervously from the tree: "What on earth are you going to do?"
"Go and take a look. I'll be back soon. Stay here and don't move." Chen Fan didn't look back, and quickly ran towards the remains of the deceased, walked into the place where the broken limbs were, and closed his eyes to feel.
Although it was a little late, there was still some left. Just as he thought, warriors in the Qi Condensation realm indeed had much more essence than ordinary people, and there was still about 20% of the essence remaining.
Streams of invisible essence, as if guided by magnetism, flowed through his pores and into the meridians in his body...
Feeling the power transmitted by these essences, Chen Fan's lips flashed with a satisfied smile.
Soon, all the energy that had not completely dissipated was integrated into Chen Fan's body.
Those foods were stained with thick blood, and the deadly poison of the "Silver-backed Scorpion" was probably among them. There was no doubt that they could no longer be eaten. Here, the value of crystal coins is greatly reduced, and carrying too much may even affect the speed of movement. Therefore, these mercenaries did not store too many crystal coins in their backpacks.
He tossed around for a while and only found some liquid coated with slaughtered monsters and some healing powder that smelled like grass.
What a bunch of poor poor people.
Chen Fan muttered to himself, carefully wiped off the blood in a mercenary's backpack, then stepped into the shadow of the big tree, and began to head towards the shelter of Yalan, the tree that carries history of ancient trees, move forward.
"Howl!" "Howl!"
In this nightmarish dark forest, the roars of the monsters kept coming one after another. Only at dawn did they start wandering around, as if they were systematically hunting human warriors and mercenaries in the forest.
Every time he heard a frightening roar, Chen Fan became very excited.
The actions of these monsters will definitely affect those who chase him. Those who dare not move in the dark will surely disturb the nocturnal monsters. The more people there are in the team, the more conspicuous the target. Maybe even the members of the Ghost Hall, the Yan family and the Phantom will be lost tonight, becoming the first prey of the monsters.
His guess was absolutely correct...
That late night, Yan Dongchen and his companions undoubtedly became the targets of special attention from the monsters.
While chasing Chen Fan and Mu Ge, they decided to continue marching in the dark night despite Hu Di's suicide, trying to find Chen Fan's footprints. This decision attracted the attention of the monsters until five people were lost. After losing their lives, they fully understood the seriousness of the situation, and quickly looked for the huge ancient tree and quietly hid in it.
"Where have you gone?" Yalan asked with a slight frown, "Are those people's relics worth taking such a big risk for you? If you are discovered by the monster beasts running back or other monster beasts, you will have no chance at all. There is a way to escape!”
"Didn't I come back safe and sound?" Chen Fan did not stop climbing up the ancient tree, nor did he explain to her where he was looking for something before. He said with a sullen face: "There is something strange tonight, I feel something is wrong. , the monster beasts burst out of thin air and attacked fiercely, like crazy, hunting the mercenaries and warriors in the forest. Maybe someone did something to make the high-level monster beasts angry, otherwise these monster beasts would not take the risk This risk."
"Then what should we do?" Yalan looked troubled, "Should we continue to move forward?" When Chen Fan was deep in thought, she continued to ask.
"Wait a minute." Chen Fan said calmly, "Those monsters have been busy all night, and it should be quieter during the day. We should wait until noon before setting off."
Yalan nodded, "Then let's do it."
