After leaving the Martial Artist Supply Hall, Chu Mo went straight to the city gate.
The main reason he accepted this mission before was because the place he was going to train this time was in the same direction as the Two-Headed Python’s territory.
He also had some plans on the Two-Headed Python.
The Python’s gallbladder had the effect of enhancing a Martial Artist’s aptitude, although the effect was very weak and varied from person to person, but it was still a treasure. If he could slay it, he could take the gallbladder for himself. In this regard, he didn’t need the snake heart.
He could completely accept this mission and conveniently accomplish it. At the same time, he did pity the girl.
Although Chu Mo would not describe himself as kind-hearted, since he saw such misfortune, there was no harm in lending a helping hand if it didn’t affect him.
Moreover, he was a bit curious about that Ferocious Beast Egg that had not hatched after over a decade.
Half an hour later, Chu Mo smoothly walked out of the city gate and arrived outside the base.
Although Luyang Base was only a small base, it had a Grandmaster stationed there. Plus, there were many hunting teams inside the base, so within a twenty-kilometer range near the base, it was a relatively safe area.
To hunt even more powerful Ferocious Beasts, one had to go further.
Chu Mo’s goal in going to the wilderness this time was to break through his limits and advance to become a Martial Artist. Therefore, his target was Mount Dashu, a mountain range a hundred kilometers away.
A hundred years ago, Mount Dashu was just a small hill within Luyang’s jurisdiction. But later, after the world changed greatly and Blue Star expanded hundreds of times, Mount Dashu truly became a large mountain range spanning over a thousand kilometers.
In the mountain range, ancient trees towered and Ferocious Beasts ran rampant. It was an extremely terrifying area.
[It’s said that deep in that mountain range, there are Level 3 Ferocious Beasts, which are comparable to Martial Masters, and Level 4 Ferocious Beasts, which are comparable to Grandmasters. There are even rumors of traces of Ferocious Beasts above Level 4, but it hasn’t been verified!] Chu Mo thought this as he hurried along the way.
Level 3 and Level 4 Ferocious Beasts were all extremely terrifying. Even if Chu Mo encountered them, there was absolutely no possibility of escaping unscathed.
This time, he was only going to Mount Dashu to slay Level 2 Ferocious Beasts in the periphery to temper himself. If he encountered a Two-Headed Python, that would naturally be even better.
“Whoosh!” Suddenly, a piercing sound rang out, and then a black shadow crashed towards Chu Mo with a boom.
“A Level 2 Ferocious Beast!” Hearing the sneaky attack’s piercing howl, Chu Mo subconsciously became alert and quickly analyzed that this was the aura of the Level 2 Ferocious Beast.
He drew his saber when he sensed that a beast had approached in front of him. He also suddenly activated his Wind Element Talent and the Luo Yan Steps.
His figure flashed and turned into a dispersing wisp of smoke. When he appeared again, he had already arrived at the side of the beast.
With a sweep of his saber, the blade accurately chopped at the beast’s neck.
With a tearing sound of the blade entering flesh, and a gush of blood shot out.
The sneakily attacking Ferocious Beast didn’t even have time to make any noise before it was directly split in two and fell to the ground.
It was only then did Chu Mo see clearly what this beast was.
“Level 2 Low-Tier Ferocious Beast, Iron Thread Mantis!”
The Iron Thread Mantis could be considered the weakest of the Level 2 Ferocious Beasts!
It didn’t mean its strength was weak. The Iron Thread Mantis gained its name after being parasitized by Iron Thread Worms.
When the world changed, the two symbiotically fused, giving the Iron Thread Mantis the ability to devour metal and be unafraid of water and fire. Its pair of sharp raptorial claws could split rocks and hold boundless power.
The key to their strength was the poison in its claws. Once grabbed, if not dead, one would be heavily injured.
Although the Iron Thread Mantis was the weakest among Level 2 Ferocious Beasts, the number of Martial Artists who died at its hands every year was not small.
In short, in the wilderness, no Ferocious Beast could be underestimated.
“I need to store the Ferocious Beast Blood!” Chu Mo squatted down, pried open the mantis’ heart. He squeezed out the blood from its heart into a bottle.
He also took off the Iron Thread Mantis’ two claws – these were the most valuable materials on it. When he returned to base later, he could sell them for quite a few Spirit Stones.
After doing all this, Chu Mo continued forward.
On the way, Chu Mo encountered more Ferocious Beasts.
Some were easily slain by him.
Some were powerful Level 3 Ferocious Beasts, which Chu Mo knew he couldn’t handle. Thus, he used his Wind Element Talent to avoid them from afar.
In just a hundred kilometers, Chu Mo encountered no less than four Ferocious Beasts he couldn’t resist. It made him deeply understand how dangerous the wilderness was.
[No wonder Martial Artists go out to hunt Ferocious Beasts in groups. The wilderness is really perilous. Traveling alone makes it easy to perish under the attacks of Ferocious Beasts.] Chu Mo thought.
Two hours later, Chu Mo finally arrived at the outskirts of Mount Dashu.
Upon reaching here, the number of Ferocious Beasts suddenly increased by a big margin. The danger here was also even greater.
Chu Mo’s became more cautious. Although he had his Wind Element Talent and Luo Yan Steps, making his speed more terrifying than ordinary Martial Artists.
However, there were always higher cultivation realms and stronger foes. If he carelessly provoked an extremely powerful Ferocious Beast, even he didn’t have full confidence in escaping.
“Since I’ve arrived at Mount Dashu, I can settle down to focus on fighting and cultivating! I need to strive to become a Martial Artist in the shortest possible time! At the same time… fully master my Movement Technique and Saber Technique!”
After setting his goals, Chu Mo began searching for Ferocious Beast to fight against in the outskirts of Mount Dashu.
Ferocious Beasts were numerous here.
Before long, Chu Mo encountered a suitable beast – A wolf with a body three meters long, with dark green fur all over. Its fur was brushing against the wind as its ferocious teeth flashed with a cold gleam.
“A Level 2 Low-Tier Ferocious Beast, Wind Chaser Wolf!” A solemn look appeared on Chu Mo’s face. Although it was also a Level 2 Low-Tier Ferocious Beast like the Iron Thread Mantis, their combat power was incomparable.
At this time, the Wind Chaser Wolf had caught onto Chu Mo’s scent. It immediately howled and rushed up.
“Aooo!” The Wind Chaser Wolf ran with its four paws, its speed as swift as lightning, pouncing towards Chu Mo like a sharp blade.
“Luo Yan Steps!” Chu Mo used his Movement Technique while activating his Wind Element Talent. His entire body suddenly floated several meters away.
The Wind Splitting Blade surged out, with a layer of cold light lingering on the blade, reflecting dazzling brilliance. It soon chopped towards the Wind Chaser Wolf’s head.
Bang!
The saber fell with an unstoppable force, but the speed of the Wind Chaser Wolf was not to be underestimated. In that short span, it swiped out its claw.
The instant the two collided, Chu Mo’s body retreated a few steps, while the Wind Chaser Wolf was sent flying.
It fell to the ground and immediately stood up, growling in a low voice.
Chu Mo keenly discovered that the claw that had made contact with his saber just now was constantly trembling. It was even faintly oozing some blood.
“Your defense got broken! You are no match for me!” Seeing this, Chu Mo’s heart settled.
Although he was just a Martial Apprentice with physical strength of 9,900 kilograms, with the boost of his Low-Grade Lightning Element Talent, the max force he could exert now reached close to 50,000 kilograms!
In terms of strength, he could completely crush the Wind Chaser Wolf!
“Die!” Chu Mo’s confidence greatly increased. He used his Movement Technique again, charging towards the Wind Chaser Wolf at an unbelievable speed.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
In the blink of an eye, the man and wolf had already exchanged over a dozen moves.
A moment later, after continuously enduring the hard impacts, the Wind Chaser Wolf’s finally weakened. Chu Mo found an opportunity and directly brought his saber down and the Ferocious Beast’s head flew up.
The Wind Chaser Wolf was dead!
