Hearing the commotion, everyone in the campsite stood up.
"Don't act recklessly. Zi Yu, Murong, take care of the students. Jiang Leng, Helian, follow me."
When Sun Mo was setting up the formation, he had already darted toward the west.
"I'll go take a look!"
Li Ruolan took out an Image Recording Stone and chased after Bai Xiqing. She did not want to miss such a big show. Bai Xiqing did not speak, but her speed was very fast.
Beside the stream, the monkey was standing on a rock, holding its stone spear, and roaring threateningly towards the upstream of the stream.
"Zhiruo, what's wrong?"
When Sun Mo rushed over and saw that Lu Zhiruo was fine, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"I saw a monster."
Lu Zhiruo pulled Xuanyuan Po. "Quickly persuade Xuanyuan Po. He insists on chasing after them."
"Xuanyuan, are you crazy?"
Sun Mo roared, "Do you still have a sense of the overall situation?"
"It's a new species. I've never seen it before."
Xuanyuan Po explained. After that, he roared at Lu Zhiruo who was hugging his arm, "Let go of me, he's going to run away."
The combat addict was still a little rational. He knew that Lu Zhiruo was doing this for his own good. If not, he would have given the papaya girl two punches.
"I can't go. That monster is injured. It will definitely put up a desperate fight."
Lu Zhiruo persuaded, "From the looks of it, it's currently fleeing, and we don't know who's chasing after it. What if you're implicated?"
"What monster?"
Li Ruolan was curious.
"It's a monster that's close to two meters tall. It has a leopard-like tail, pointy ears, big eyes, and a lot of braids on its head."
Lu Zhiruo gestured with her hands. Amidst her nervousness, there was also a hint of excitement and curiosity.
She had read some documents that said that on the Darkness Continent, there were some demi-humans. They were very similar to humans, but there were some differences. Hence, they were called demi-humans.
These demi-humans were extremely rare in number. Hence, each and every one of them was priceless. High-ranking great teachers would usually be willing to spend a huge sum of money to purchase them and conduct research on them.
There were also some top-notch nobles, such as a few kings, who also wanted to buy it. After buying it, they could show off their power and wealth.
Of course, there was also the pure desire to collect.
In short, those who didn't have a high enough status wouldn't even have heard of such demi-humans, let alone looking at them.
"Lush green? Pointy ears? Could it be a native in disguise? "
Li Ruolan frowned.
In the Nine States, there were still some remote mountains and forests. The natives who lived in these places had all kinds of customs.
They had feathers on their heads, colorful totems painted on their bodies, bone or stone ornaments, and so on.
Hence, the papaya girl might have seen wrongly.
"No, it's the subhumans."
The papaya girl was anxious and said it out loud. After that, she saw that Li Ruolan and the others had dumbfounded looks on their faces.
"Subhuman? What's that? "
Bai Xiqing did not understand.
"Ugh!"
Lu Zhiruo knew that she had let the cat out of the bag. After sneaking a glance at her teacher, she felt that since these two women were her teacher's friends, they were considered to be on the same side. Therefore, she explained, "It's a type of darkness species that resembles humans. You guys mustn't spread this out."
"Subhuman?"
Bai Xiqing had obviously never heard of this concept.
"What kind of family does this big papaya have? He even knows such a secret?"
Li Ruolan surveyed Li Ziqi in astonishment. As she was a reporter, Li Ziqi had come into contact with many people before. Hence, she knew that in any circle, there would always be some secrets that people at the bottom level wouldn't be able to know.
Seeing that her teacher didn't know either, Lu Zhiruo explained patiently.
"A few hundred years ago, there were still a small number of demi-human tribes in the lower levels of the Darkness Continent. However, due to various reasons, they were hunted down. They either went extinct or migrated to the higher levels. According to my father, if you want to see demi-humans now, you have to be at least in the fourth level."
Hiss!
Li Ruolan and Bai Xiqing gasped when they heard this.
After so many years in the great teacher world, everyone had already come up with a set of rules.
For example, if a great teacher wished to enter the fourth level of the Darkness Continent, they had to at least be a 6-star great teacher. Moreover, their cultivation base couldn't be lower than the sixth level of the Longevity Realm.
This requirement was only for him to protect himself and not become a burden to others.
"Teacher, there's no time to talk nonsense. Hurry up and chase after him!"
Xuanyuan Po urged.
"Where did it go? Zhiruo, go back and report. I'll go take a look. "
After Sun Mo spoke, he chased after the path the papaya girl pointed out.
"Teacher, I'll lead the way."
Xuanyuan Po fought bravely to be the first.
Sun Mo felt a headache. He knew that even if he asked Xuanyuan Po to return, Xuanyuan Po would still follow him secretly.
Sigh!
This student was really worrisome.
"Sun Mo, don't you feel that you're overly protective of them?"
The system criticized, "For an adventure like this, life and death are determined by fate. If they die or become crippled, it's their bad luck. There's no need for you to protect them so much."
Sun Mo also understood that if one didn't experience wind and rain, how would they see the rainbow? However, he really couldn't steel his heart to do that.
"I'll go too!"
Bai Xiqing chased after him. Li Ruolan naturally didn't want to be outdone either.
"You guys..."
Lu Zhiruo also wanted to go, but she didn't dare to go against Sun Mo's instructions. She paced around anxiously. "Oh right, let's look for eldest martial sister. She must have a solution."
Sun Mo went against the flow and chased wildly for five minutes, but he still couldn't see the figure of his target. He couldn't help but feel trepidation.
That aboriginal's speed was so fast. If not, he wouldn't be able to catch up to it at all.
Luckily, there was a blue liquid on the ground. It should be that aboriginal's blood or bodily fluids after he was injured. Sun Mo relied on this and didn't get lost.
Another 15 minutes later, Sun Mo heard the splashing sound of water. If there were no accidents, there should be a huge waterfall ahead.
There were also faint sounds of fighting and shouting.
"Don't let it escape!"
"What is that thing?"
"Haha, is this considered waiting for a hare?"
When Sun Mo dashed out of the forest, he saw a group of teachers and students surrounding a green-colored aboriginal. They didn't make a move. It wasn't that they couldn't win against it, but they were worried that they would kill it.
After all, a living species of darkness was more valuable than a dead one.
Swoosh!
The moment Sun Mo came out, the gazes of those teachers and students turned over, filled with wariness.
Sun Mo saw the aboriginal that was fleeing. As expected, it was the same as what Lu Zhiruo had described. It wasn't wearing any clothes on its upper body. Other than a large-scale totem tattoo, it only had accessories on its neck. There were exquisite beast horns, shells, and the foot bones of some ferocious beasts.
Its lower body was wearing a beast-skin skirt, and its feet were wearing straw sandals. It should have lost its weapon. There was only a bow and no quiver left.
At this moment, it was baring its teeth and letting out low growls. It was in a state like a trapped beast.
"Damn, this prey belongs to Sun Mo!"
When Huang Chao saw Sun Mo, he silently cursed at his bad luck.
"Sun Mo, what's wrong? No one can dream of snatching the battle spoils that have fallen into my hands! "
Zhang Shihua cursed. He even flicked the school emblem on his chest. There were five stars on it, and he could be considered a major character.
"Teacher Zhang is awesome!"
Huang Chao smiled and flashed a thumbs up.
Honestly speaking, this was a native of the Darkness Continent. How precious was it? Even if it belonged to someone else, he would want to snatch it back. However, Sun Mo's fame was too great.
Huang Chao was only a 3-star great teacher and was already 40 years old.
Although 3-star great teachers at his age could be considered outstanding, when compared to Sun Mo, he was trash. There was a gap of 20 years.
Hence, Huang Chao didn't dare to offend a new superstar like Sun Mo.
Although Zhang Shihua spoke tough, he was also wary of Sun Mo in his bones. He hesitated for a moment and lunged toward the green-skinned aboriginal.
He wanted to capture it first. If they 'fought', he would have the qualifications to get a share of the spoils.
"Attack together!"
Zhang Shihua called out to his colleagues to attack together.
The green-skinned aboriginal mumbled. He should be cursing. His bow had no arrows and could only be used as a rod.
"This fellow's skin is really thick!"
Huang Chao cursed. When he slashed with his sword, he would be able to cut open a little of the aboriginal's skin.
"Teacher, let's attack quickly!"
Xuanyuan Po urged.
"No hurry!"
Sun Mo pulled Xuanyuan Po back, wanting to observe the situation first. If not, even if they snatched the green-skinned aboriginal away, they would still have to deal with the people chasing after him.
"They are people from the Swallow Sea Academy."
Li Ruolan reported in a low voice. "The person in the lead is called Zhang Shihua. He's proficient in medicine and alchemy and is quite famous."
This aboriginal was tall and had long legs. He was as strong as an ox and had plenty of combat experience. Leaving aside the fact that he was able to withstand the attacks of these people, he even seized a long blade and chopped off the right hand of a great teacher when their cooperation wasn't good enough.
"Kill him, don't capture him alive."
Zhang Shihua was ruthless.
The great teachers were also angered. All of them unleashed their ultimate techniques. The aboriginal wasn't a match for them and could only retreat toward the bottom of the waterfall.
"This waterfall is so tall!"
Li Ruolan inclined her head and looked into the distance, involuntarily feeling rueful.
What did it mean to fly 3,000 feet straight down?
This was it!
One couldn't see the top of the waterfall at all. Only the splashing mist permeated the air, resembling an immortal realm.
Sun Mo took a glance in passing and frowned.
(Wait a minute, why do I feel as though I've seen this waterfall before?)
Sun Mo hurriedly glanced at the surroundings.
At this moment, an explosive bellow suddenly rang out.
"Lowly people from Swallow Sea, put down your granddaddy's prey and scram!"
A white-haired figure in golden robes floated over and landed among the crowd. His palms struck out repeatedly, forcing Zhang Shihua's group to retreat.
However, just as he was about to take down the green-skinned aboriginal, another figure blocked his attack.
"Teacher Ma, I was the first to see this aboriginal. How did he become your prey?"
The figure that came later had a mocking look on his face.
"Scram!"
Ma Hankang's face was gloomy as he attacked repeatedly.
"Teacher Ma, don't be so shameless."
Yang Xuecai was also angered.
"I told you to scram."
Ma Hankang felt very depressed. If it wasn't for Yang Xuecai, he would have taken down the green-skinned aboriginal long ago. Upon thinking of this, he decided to attack Yang Xuecai as well.
"You..."
When Yang Xuecai saw this scene, anger filled his heart. He couldn't win against Ma Hankang, hence, he wanted to reason with him. Now that he couldn't reason with Ma Hankang, he directly sent a slap toward the green-skinned aboriginal.
(If I can't get it, you can forget about it as well.)
He directly smashed the aboriginal into minced meat.
Bang!
The green-skinned aboriginal's chest was slapped, and he was directly flung through the air, landing in the water.
His chest caved in. Clearly, he wouldn't be able to survive.
"What are you doing?"
Ma Hankang was enraged and fought against Yang Xuecai.
Downstream, another two famous school groups caught up. When they saw Ma Hankang and Yang Xuecai fighting, they immediately joined in as well.
"Oh my god, I'm going to die!"
Huang Chao's scalp turned numb.
Sun Mo didn't care about this because he had a shocking discovery!
