The hunting group sped up again, and they didn't take the route that Shao Xuan knew.
They traveled at a speed that was two to three times faster than the other hunting groups. It was a long journey, and they only took a short break to eat, and then continued their journey. In the evening, they spent the night in a cave, which was also the resting place of Ta and the others when they were hunting.
On the first day, Shao Xuan didn't get used to the new environment. Even though he had better endurance and speed than his peers, he was only a junior totem warrior who had just awakened this year. In the original advance group, the weakest one was only one step away from becoming a middle-level warrior. Shao Xuan was not good enough compared with them.
Therefore, when they finally arrived at the cave on the first night, Shao Xuan was exhausted. He lay there, unable to lift his legs. His muscles were twitching, and his mind was a little muddled.
The other members were tired, too, but they were used to it. They weren't as tired as Shao Xuan. Seeing Shao Xuan like this, they all thought that this kid finally realized the gap between them. Not everyone could join the advance group. Even if the weaker ones tried their best to get in, they still couldn't keep up. However, Shao Xuan was already very good to be able to keep up on the first day.
Therefore, some people in the advance group had a better impression of Shao Xuan. In their eyes, Shao Xuan was just a kid, and the tribe was always more tolerant to kids. Ta and the others, who were more powerful in the advance group, discussed that they would take turns to carry Shao Xuan tomorrow. After all, Shao Xuan wouldn't be able to keep running tomorrow.
But the next day, when the others got up, they found that Shao Xuan, who was still half-dead last night and couldn't even move his toes, was now alive and kicking, as if nothing had happened to him! Shao Xuan didn't need Ta and the others to carry him, and he kept up with them in high spirits.
Almost everyone in the advance group showed the same expression.
Damn, didn't that kid come out of the cave?
What did he eat to grow up?! Wild animals? Ferocious beasts? Or was it a beast king?
That was impossible. The food distributed in the underground cave was all low-energy meat and plant tubers. How could it grow like this?
Thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out.
No matter how he thought about it, he still couldn't figure it out.
Could it be that he was really protected by the ancestors?!
Therefore, the next day, the advance group kept glancing at Shao Xuan while they were on their way. Then, they glanced at him again after a while.
Tsk, looking at that brat's spirited appearance, he really wasn't pretending!
…
Unlike other hunting groups, who would hunt in one foothold and then move on to the next foothold, Ta's hunting group was on a continuous journey. After spending the night in the first cave, they would continue the journey the next day.
Sometimes, they had to climb over the mountains, over the dangerous peaks covered with white snow. Sometimes, they had to take a detour, passing through dangerous areas such as swamps and asphalt pits.
Shao Xuan saw a lot of unknown ferocious beasts. Some were huge and ferocious, and some were colorful giant snakes. Any one of them would attract the attention of the people in the tribe. However, the group didn't stop. Even if they killed ferocious beasts, they didn't bring them back. As long as they had enough food, they would just leave the rest behind. They didn't want to burden themselves.
Hurrying on, hunting, hurrying on, and hunting again!
They did the same thing every day. The huge consumption of physical strength also meant that they needed more energy, and the meat of high-level ferocious beasts was the best supplement.
The people in the advance group were worried that Shao Xuan wouldn't be able to absorb the energy and would feel sleepy after eating the meat of high-level ferocious beasts. But it turned out that they thought too much.
After hunting a Thorn Black Wind, Shao Xuan had already gotten used to eating meat of that level. He had already adapted to the energy in the meat. Even if the level of the ferocious beast was higher, Shao Xuan would still be able to absorb the energy.
As a junior warrior who had just awakened this year, he ate as much as the others, and recovered faster than anyone else. Seeing Shao Xuan's performance, the people in the advance group were stunned at first, then slightly surprised, and then numb. In the end, no one dared to laugh at Shao Xuan anymore.
Sure enough, those who could be recruited by the team leader in advance were not ordinary people.
After walking like this for five days, Shao Xuan followed the hunting group up a mountain, and rested in a cave there. They had already arrived at their destination. However, Shao Xuan couldn't tell what was different, except for a strange feeling.
After a night's rest, Shao Xuan was woken up in the morning. He took his equipment, and followed Ta and the others out.
They continued to climb up the mountain, and stood on top of a cliff.
Yang Guang gradually came out.
Facing the morning sun, Shao Xuan stood beside the cliff. As far as the eye could see, it was endless green. There were also some other colors, but 99% of them were dark or light green.
This was the destination of their trip, a kingdom of plants. And the sun rose from the border between this endless kingdom of plants and the sky.
The cold air warmed up again.
Shao Xuan could clearly feel that everything on this land was waking up.
Crack! Crack!
Crack! In the green kingdom of plants, the pillar-shaped plants that stood like tall buildings made cracking sounds, like the pressing of heavy planks. Occasionally, some creaking sounds could be heard, like the sound of a giant wooden boat swaying in the waves.
Along with these sounds, the top of the pillar-shaped plants unscrewed their tightly coiled leaves, and spread them out layer by layer like buds.
Those bean-sprout-shaped giant plants, which had been lowering their "heads", gradually lifted up, facing the direction of the morning sun, and spread out their two huge wings like leaves …
The sun rose higher and higher, and the light of the morning sun had already passed the peak, shining on the other side of the mountain. Like an alarm, it spread from one side of the mountain to the other, waking up the sleeping creatures.
Shao Xuan took a deep breath, took a step forward, and looked at his feet.
This was a cliff. If he jumped down, he would definitely die. It would be worse than being smashed to pieces.
"How do we go down?" Shao Xuan asked. If they wanted to go down the mountain, why did they have to climb up? There was only a steep cliff here, almost perpendicular to the ground. It would be difficult to climb down directly, and they didn't know if they would be attacked by other creatures. That would be more difficult and dangerous.
"Of course we can't jump directly!" Someone laughed.
"Look at the pool over there. You'll know." Tuo turned and pointed somewhere on the other side.
Shao Xuan looked in the direction Tuo pointed.
Where was the pool? There was only darkness.
No!
It wasn't like that!
Shao Xuan looked carefully and found that there was something moving in the darkness over there. It was just that it was too far away, so it wasn't easy to see it.
But soon, the darkness lost its original stillness and began to disperse.
Black dots rose one by one. At first, there were only a few, but after a few breaths, a large number of black dots rose into the air.
And the pool that was originally covered by these black dots was finally exposed to Shao Xuan's vision.
It was a wide pool, and there seemed to be many different colored plants growing in the pool. Yellow, green, brown, and red. Combined with the shape of the pool, at first glance, it looked like a pair of compound eyes of an insect.
The mountain over there was much higher than where Shao Xuan was, reaching straight into the clouds.
The rising black dots didn't fly up vertically. Instead, they flew towards them like a black cloud.
"Everyone, get ready!!" Ta said to everyone, "Xuan, follow me."
The black cloud was getting closer and closer. Shao Xuan could hear the sound of wings flapping, and he could see clearly what those black dots were.
Dragonflies?!
Shao Xuan didn't feel it because he was too far away. But now, when he saw the group of dragonflies, his heart thumped wildly.
Shao Xuan had seen dragonflies before, but he had never seen so many of them!
It was a huge fleet of airplanes!
The small ones had a wingspan of three meters, and most of them had a wingspan of more than five meters, and some were even larger. Seeing so many giant dragonflies gathered together, Shao Xuan could imagine how shocked he was.
They were going to fly from one side of the mountain to the green area on the other side.
When the "fleet of airplanes" glided over their heads, Shao Xuan could still see the web-like veins of their wings.
They were like gliders!
"Let's go!"
The people of the advance group skillfully jumped off the mountain wall and landed on a giant dragonfly when they fell.
Before Shao Xuan could move, Ta lifted him up and jumped on the back of a slightly larger dragonfly.
It was the first time in his life that he had experienced a giant dragonfly glider.
