Night had come.
Ji Tianxing had reached the halfway point of Boundless Mountain and was traversing through the dense forest.
The roars of beasts could be heard all around him, and the rustling of leaves could be heard from the forest.
He knew that the beasts in the mountain had begun to hunt for food.
Boundless Mountain at night was a paradise for all kinds of beasts, demon beasts, and spirit beasts, but it was a dangerous forbidden zone for humans.
Ji Tianxing traversed through the forest. Not only did he have to be on guard against the attacks of beasts and demon beasts, he also had to be on guard against the poisonous snakes and insects hidden in the bushes and trees.
He remembered a few months ago when he had not yet recovered to the True Energy Realm and was searching for the Red Star Flower in Tai Ye Mountain Range.
At that time, he was only in the Body Refining Realm, but he was attacked by many demon beasts in Tai Ye Mountain Range and almost lost his life several times.
Now that a few months had passed, he once again ventured into the mountain range where demon beasts ran rampant, but he was not as scared as before.
With his current strength, he could ignore low-level and mid-level demon beasts. Only high-level demon beasts could pose a threat to him.
Suddenly, in the forest not far ahead, there was a deep roar of a beast.
Ji Tianxing's gaze pierced through the darkness of the night. He could vaguely see a pair of green eyes a hundred steps away from him.
Those green eyes were staring at him, revealing a cruel and bloodthirsty chill.
"Haha, I met a dozen demon beasts on my way up the mountain, but they all retreated. I didn't expect this demon beast to target me!"
Ji Tianxing sneered in his heart and silently drew out the Black Dragon Sword.
After a while, the demon beast in the forest finally could not hold back its bloodthirsty desire.
It roared in a deep voice and rushed over as fast as the wind.
When it was close enough, Ji Tianxing could see clearly that it was a Wind Patrol Wolf.
The Wind Patrol Wolf was one of the stronger mid-level demon beasts. It was extremely fast, cruel, and cunning, and usually acted alone.
Its strength was equivalent to a fifth or sixth level True Energy Realm martial artist.
"Swoosh!"
Under the cover of the night, the Wind Scout Wolf rushed to within ten steps of Ji Tianxing and pounced at him.
Its huge body, which was four meters long, carried a strong pressure and strong wind as it pounced down from above Ji Tianxing's head.
Ji Tianxing did not dodge. His eyes were fixed on the incoming Wind Wolf, and he instantly pulled out his Black Dragon Sword.
Clang!
A crisp sound of a sword rang out.
The Black Dragon Sword flashed with a dazzling cold light, carrying an incomparably violent power as it slashed towards the Wind Wolf.
When the Wind Wolf sensed the terrifying power and aura of the Black Dragon Sword, its eyes suddenly became panicked.
However, it was in midair, and it was impossible to avoid it.
"Boom!"
With a muffled sound, the three-meter-long golden sword light split the Wind Wolf into two halves.
It didn't even have the time to let out a scream before its head was separated from its body and fell to the ground, sprinkling a puddle of dark red blood.
Ji Tianxing put away the Black Dragon Sword and left with an expressionless face.
With his strength, a mid-rank demonic beast would basically be killed in one strike.
He did not continue on his way, and stopped a hundred steps away from the forest.
With a leap, he jumped onto a towering tree and sat on the branch, waiting quietly.
A hundred steps away from him, the Wind Scout Wolf's corpse was lying in the grass. Blood was constantly flowing out, emitting a thick smell of blood.
The thick smell of blood would attract many demonic beasts and spirit beasts.
Ji Tianxing had to wait for the spirit beasts to appear.
Time passed by quietly. In the quiet forest, the rustling of footsteps and the roars of beasts rose and fell.
Soon, a few demonic beasts smelled the smell of blood and quietly rushed to the Wind Scout Wolf's corpse.
They were three mid-rank Red Flame Tigers. They looked around for a moment, and after confirming that there was no danger nearby, they quickly devoured the Wind Scout Wolf's corpse.
In just a short time, the Wind Scout Wolf's corpse was completely eaten, and the three Red Flame Tigers quickly left.
Although, there were still a few demonic beasts that rushed over.
But these demonic beasts acted alone. When they saw the three Red Flame Tigers, they hid in the dark and did not dare to show their faces, or quietly retreated.
Ji Tianxing hid on the branch of a towering tree and witnessed the whole process.
He could not help but frown, somewhat disappointed.
"These demonic beasts devoured the corpse too quickly, and the other demonic beasts were also very cautious, hiding in the dark and would not easily show themselves."
"It seems that my idea of using demonic beasts' corpses to attract the target will not work … I have to think of another way."
He frowned and thought for a moment, then took out the Psychic Astrolabe from his interspatial ring.
The Psychic Astrolabe was the Ji Family's ancestral treasure, a top-grade profound artifact. It could be said to be priceless and incomparably precious.
When Ji Changkong gave this astrolabe to him, he said that this astrolabe could be used to detect the aura of spirit veins, rare treasures and spirit objects.
Therefore, Ji Tianxing had been carrying the Psychic Astrolabe with him.
Since he obtained the Red Star Flower, this Psychic Astrolabe had not been used.
Now, he wanted to use the Psychic Astrolabe again to detect the aura of spirit beasts.
Ji Tianxing jumped down from the treetop, walked in the dark forest, and continued to rush into the depths of Boundless Mountain.
He held the Psychic Astrolabe in his left hand, and pressed his right palm on the astrolabe, injecting True Essence into it to activate the array on the astrolabe.
When he was looking for the Red Star Flower in the past, he was only in the Body Refining Realm, and did not understand the mystery of the Psychic Astrolabe at all, so he could not exert much of its effect and power.
Now, it was different, with his strength and array attainments, he could exert 60 to 70 percent of the Psychic Astrolabe's effect.
Ji Tianxing traversed through the night without making a sound, just like a phantom.
The Black Dragon Sword also turned into a small black dragon, following him closely, vigilantly observing the surroundings.
Along the way, many demonic beasts found Ji Tianxing's trace and were eager to attack.
However, those demonic beasts were basically low-rank and middle-rank demonic beasts.
After they sensed the aura of the small black dragon, they were frightened and did not dare to show up.
About two hours later, Ji Tianxing walked 30 miles through the forest and finally came to the depths of Boundless Mountain.
In the process, although he encountered dozens of demonic beasts, none of them dared to take the initiative to attack him.
Suddenly, the Psychic Astrolabe reacted and lit up with a pale silver brilliance.
"I finally detected the aura of spirit beasts!"
Ji Tianxing's eyes showed a touch of joy, and he quickly carefully checked the lines and patterns on the Psychic Astrolabe.
After a moment of observation, he identified the direction and quickly rushed to the left.
Under the guidance of the Psychic Astrolabe, he found a beast cave in the jungle on the top of the mountain.
When he got into the beast cave, he could clearly sense the Spiritual Qi fluctuations coming from the depths of the beast cave without the guidance of the Psychic Astrolabe.
