The Eastern Wilderness Mountain Range was the general name for the eastern part of the Great Wilderness Mountain Range.
Strictly speaking, the Eastern Wilderness was represented by the Black Dragon Ridge. It was also known as the Eastern Wilderness Eighteen Ridges.
The ten human tribes of the Eastern Wilderness were all within the range of the Eighteen Ridges.
The Tielin Sect was located on the westernmost side of the Eighteen Ridges, closest to the Black Dragon Ridge.
It was already deep into the Eastern Wilderness Mountain Range.
Therefore, the Tielin Sect had the least population and was the most impoverished.
A few hundred years ago, the situation of the ten tribes was similar.
But after a few hundred years of development, the Tielin Sect had been left far behind.
If not for its remote location, it would have long been annexed by other large tribes.
Among the seven hunters who entered the mountain with Gao Zhengyang, there was one called Tie Gen, who was especially talkative.
Along the way, he had never shut his mouth.
Gao Zhengyang only knew about these things through his chatter.
According to Yue Qingxue, the world was so vast that the ten tribes of the human tribe were nothing. Gao Zhengyang was not interested in these things at all.
What he was really interested in was the Black Dragon Ridge, a name that Old Cang had mentioned.
If Old Cang did not lie to him, there should be a master living in the Black Dragon Ridge.
Maybe there were some crane tribe beauties.
"Where is the Black Dragon Ridge?"
Coincidentally, there was a quick-witted Tie Gen beside him, so Gao Zhengyang asked casually.
"The Black Dragon Ridge is a few thousand miles long. This whole area is the Black Dragon Ridge. "
Tie Gen drew a big circle with his hand, his honest face showing an exaggerated expression, emphasizing the size of the Black Dragon Ridge.
Tie Gen's face was dark red, his arms and legs were thick, and his face was simple and honest. Just by looking at his face, no one would have guessed that this person would be so talkative.
"There must be a main peak, right?" Gao Zhengyang asked again.
"Yes, there is. It is two thousand feet high, the tallest mountain in a ten thousand mile radius."
Tie Gen said as he walked a few steps to an empty space. He pointed to the west and said, "Look at that huge black shadow. That is the main peak of the Black Dragon Ridge. Follow the mountain all the way to the west, about three to five hundred miles, and you will reach the main peak."
"If it is only three to five hundred miles, it is not far. We can take a look on the way. "
Gao Zhengyang looked in that direction and already had an idea.
"The main peak of the Black Dragon Ridge has penetrated deep into the Eastern Barren Mountain Range. There should be strong demonic beasts living there. And the mysterious Barbarian Tribe. Especially dangerous. "
Tie Gen didn't know what Gao Zhengyang wanted to do, but he instinctively tried to persuade him. He was afraid that Gao Zhengyang would have a sudden impulse and want to go to the Black Dragon Ridge.
"Powerful demonic beasts? What kind of demonic beasts?"
"The strongest demonic beast in the Eastern Barren Mountain should be the rank four White Tiger King. It's said that it has lived for more than two hundred years, understands the human language, and is extremely intelligent …"
Tie Gen's small eyes blinked twice before he lowered his voice and said, "It's said that the White Tiger King lives on the main peak of the Black Dragon Ridge."
Gao Zhengyang laughed. This Tie Gen was really interesting.
When he lied, he had a sneaky look on his face, as if he was afraid that others wouldn't know that he was lying.
"Gao, you have to believe me. The White Tiger King could fly with the wind, and its body was impervious to swords and spears. I dare to say that even if the experts of the ten tribes of the Eastern Barren gathered together, they might not be able to defeat it. "
Tie Gen said confidently, as if he had seen the White Tiger King before.
With Tie Gen nagging at the side, time seemed to pass a little faster.
When the sun set, the group stopped at a river bank and set up camp.
Everyone walked very quickly. After a whole day, they had climbed more than ten mountains, and the total distance was more than two hundred miles.
Along the way, they had hunted a few rabbits, a small sika deer, and some unknown birds.
After setting up camp, the old hunters dealt with their prey.
The rabbits were roasted, and the other birds were smothered under the fire. Large pieces of venison and some wild vegetables were stewing in an iron pot.
When the wind blew, a rich fragrance spread in all directions.
"Is this okay?"
Gao Zhengyang was a little curious.
The smell of barbecue was so strong that it could be smelled from ten miles away. Weren't they afraid of attracting demonic beasts?
A few hunters got into position, as if they were here for a picnic in autumn.
Lin Yi said respectfully, "The Tielin Sect has been hunting here for thousands of years. There are no large beasts within a thousand miles. In another two days, we won't be able to eat hot food. "
Lin Yi was the leader of the seven. He had a stout body and an ordinary face. He rarely spoke. But he was a godly archer, and his arrows never missed. He was extremely powerful.
As for Gao Zhengyang, Lin Yi was also very respectful and polite, but also a little distant.
There was a lot of food, but the seven strong men could eat a lot.
Especially Gao Zhengyang, who needed a lot of energy. He was extremely ferocious when eating.
The amount of food he ate alone was more than that of the seven hunters combined.
Even so, Gao Zhengyang still felt that he was not full.
Such an appetite also made Tie Gen admire him from the bottom of his heart.
What surprised him even more was that even though Gao Zhengyang ate so much, his stomach was still flat.
Tie Gen couldn't help but sigh, "Gao is really amazing. Even his eating is so awesome!"
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, they chatted for a while and then went to sleep in their sleeping bags.
Gao Zhengyang couldn't sleep for a while. He sat alone by the river in a daze.
He had been waiting for Feng Yuan today. It was a pity that Feng Yuan didn't follow him.
Feng Yuan was calmer and more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
But it was nothing. If Feng Yuan didn't come in two days, he would leave the team.
Although Tie Gen was grinning and the others were respectful, he was still an outsider.
Gao Zhengyang believed that as long as Elder Sang gave the order, they would sell him out without hesitation.
"There are many mosquitoes by the river. Gao, this is the medicine we made ourselves. It can be applied to the body to protect against snakes and insects, and it can also cover the body's smell. It's very useful. "
Tie Gen quietly came over, and with a look of presenting a treasure, he stuffed a piece of medicine that looked like yellow sauce to Gao Zhengyang.
Gao Zhengyang smeared a little on his hand. The smell of the medicine was very pungent. But it was also very effective.
The mosquitoes that lingered around him soon dispersed.
Gao Zhengyang smiled. The Tielin Sect had been hunting in the mountains for generations. They really had some skills.
After Tie Gen went back, he quietly found Lin Yi and whispered in his ear, "It's done."
Lin Yi reminded him, "Don't be careless. Be careful."
"He's just a child. His martial arts skills are high, so he might know something. Don't worry."
Tie Gen and Gao Zhengyang talked for a day. Seeing that there was nothing special about him, he was no longer in awe.
"We have to keep an eye on him. Don't let Elder Sang find him when he needs him. "
"Don't worry. Just watch me."
The next morning, everyone packed up and set off again.
It was late autumn in September, and the mountains were dyed red. Red, yellow, green, and purple colors overlapped, and the scenery was picturesque.
Although the sun in the sky was strong, the mountain wind was extremely cool, and there were few mosquitoes. It was the most comfortable season of the year.
Gao Zhengyang treated it as a vacation. Along the way, he could always pick all kinds of mountain fruits.
The climate here was cold, and the fruits were small.
But because of the abundant sunshine and dry weather, the fruits were especially sweet.
Tie Gen knew almost everything. He didn't need Gao Zhengyang to ask, and he would automatically introduce them to him. He was more responsible than the most competent tour guide.
Because Gao Zhengyang wasn't in a hurry, the group didn't walk too fast. By sunset, they had walked about a hundred miles.
At sunset, Lin Yi came to ask for instructions. "Gao, let's set up camp here."
Seeing that Gao Zhengyang didn't say anything, Lin Yi thought he was dissatisfied. He quickly explained, "The slope here is very gentle, and the view is wide. It's also not far from a water source. We often camp here. If we go further in, there will be more monsters. "
"Okay, let's do it here. Let's cook first. I'm hungry. "
Gao Zhengyang thought for a moment, then said, "Open the fire and cook that little wild boar. We'll have a good meal."
Lin Yi was a bit embarrassed, but he didn't know how to dissuade him. He gave Tie Gen a look.
Tie Gen hurriedly said, "Gao, we're already deep into the Eastern Barren Mountain. If we open the fire, we'll attract monsters. It's very dangerous."
"I'm afraid the monsters won't come." Gao Zhengyang smiled.
Tie Gen was a bit flustered. Ever since Gao Zhengyang entered the mountain, he had been very obedient and cooperative. They were secretly proud of themselves. Although Gao Zhengyang's martial arts were high, he still had to listen to them in the mountains.
They didn't expect Gao Zhengyang to suddenly do this, and with such determination. Tie Gen wasn't used to it.
He wasn't a taciturn person. His face immediately showed displeasure, but he still spoke in a pleading tone. "Gao, you're not afraid, but us brothers are."
Gao Zhengyang didn't even look at Tie Gen. He casually said, "If you're afraid, then stay away."
Tie Gen still wanted to persuade him, but Lin Yi saw that something was wrong and pulled him back.
He bowed to Gao Zhengyang and said, "Gao, we'll do it right away."
After they walked far away, Tie Gen said reluctantly, "Boss, we can't let him be so willful!"
"You really don't know life from death."
Lin Yi sighed. "If you keep talking, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your life."
Tie Gen didn't believe it. "You want to kill me for such a small matter for no reason?"
"You're too proud. You don't know how much you're worth."
Although Lin Yi wasn't eloquent, he was better at reading people than Tie Gen.
Gao Zhengyang wasn't angry just now, but his attitude clearly showed that he didn't take them seriously. If they kept talking, they would definitely be unlucky.
The hunters were all unhappy, but they could only hold their anger and make a fire to cook.
Lin Yi led them to find another place to camp. It was a few miles away from where Gao Zhengyang was.
Since Gao Zhengyang had said that they would stay away if they were afraid. They wouldn't force themselves to stay here.
The hunters took yesterday's cold meat, and after hastily eating it, they all squatted in the bushes, watching Gao Zhengyang from afar.
The whistling mountain wind would bring the aroma of cooking meat from time to time. When they smelled it, their mouths uncontrollably drooled.
"Let's see how unlucky he is …" Tie Gen said angrily. "Such a fragrant smell, I can smell it from a hundred miles away!"
The others also nodded. There were many demon beasts hiding in this area. Even if their levels weren't high, they weren't easy to deal with.
Demon beasts of the same level were far more tyrannical than martial artists or sorcerers.
Gao Zhengyang was awe-inspiring on the battlefield, but it wasn't so easy to deal with demon beasts.
To their disappointment, even when Gao Zhengyang began to eat meat, no demon beasts came.
"This guy can really eat!" someone said enviously.
That small wild boar weighed more than a hundred pounds. Gao Zhengyang sat there and ate non-stop. In a short while, there was already a pile of bones under his feet.
"It's coming," Tie Gen suddenly said.
Sure enough, a huge black shadow slowly appeared on the hillside.
The last ray of the setting sun shone on its body.
Even from far away, one could see the tall hair on its body, like spear thorns.
"It's an Iron Spike Boar. With such a big head, it should be at level two!"
Tie Gen's voice was filled with irrepressible excitement.
Iron Spike Boars were low-level demon beasts, but they were extremely difficult to kill.
This was because they were especially strong, and their skin was rough and thick. The hairs on their bodies were like iron thorns. If they were angered, they could even shoot out like arrows.
Generally speaking, only when the tracks of an Iron Spike Boar were confirmed would one set a trap to hunt it.
Normally, if one encountered an Iron Spike Boar head-on, one should run as far as possible.
This one was taller than a human, which showed how strong it was.
Tie Gen and the others didn't believe that Gao Zhengyang could kill such a terrifying demon beast head-on!
