They went to the center of the campsite, below the space crack.
"Follow me."
Lin Mokong didn't even look back as he leaped straight into the spatial rift vortex above, his body disappearing into it.
Fan Ganglie said to Fan Yujing, "It's Brother SU's first time here. Take care of him."
With that said, he jumped into the space crack as well.
Li Ying was right behind him.
Fan Yujing said to Su Ping, "You go first."
Su Ping took a closer look at the space crack. After making sure that there was no danger, he jumped in.
The moment he entered the space crack, Su Ping felt that the space around him was changing. It was the same feeling he had every time he entered a cultivation plane.
Su Ping could finally see his surroundings clearly when he landed on the ground. Behind the space crack, there were people walking back and forth. They were explorers from other teams.
Su Ping looked up. Above his head was a clear star field. Beyond the atmosphere, there were outlines of planets of different sizes. Clearly, this was the unknown star field that Fan Yujing had mentioned.
The surrounding environment was rather gloomy. It was also night time.
Fortunately, Su Ping was a battle pet warrior with better vision than the average person. He could see things within a range of thirty meters. But further away, he could not see clearly.
Whoosh!
After a flash of light, Fan Yujing appeared.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Fan Ganglie took out a map from his backpack. "This is the latest map that we've explored so far. The area we explored last time was here. The Blood Fox was also lost here. Let's search around here first."
Their gazes fell on the map, and they quickly recorded the information on the map.
Su Ping knew that the map would not be cheap. He took a closer look and memorized all the lines on the map.
For the time being, no one knew how vast the space inside the space crack was. If it was not necessary, Su Ping did not want to get close to the unexplored dark areas on the map.
"Li Ying is in charge of scouting, right?" Lin Mokong asked.
Li Ying nodded slightly and summoned the scouting bird from before, allowing it to fly into the night sky in front of them.
"What is the furthest you can scout?" Lin Mokong asked.
Li Ying said, "The furthest is about 15 miles."
"Fifteen kilometers …" Lin Mokong frowned. That was a far cry from the scout in their team. That being said, Su Ping was just a middle-rank battle pet warrior; he couldn't ask for too much.
He turned his head to look at Fan Ganglie and said, "Shall we lead the way?"
"Yes." Fan Ganglie had the same idea. He summoned a huge black wolf. This was a Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf with a seventh-rank bloodline. It was suitable for fighting at night and was very aggressive. Judging by its size, it was obviously an adult, not a grown-up pet used by the students in the academy.
Lin Mokong took a look at the Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf. He raised his hand and summoned a python that was more than a dozen meters long from the space. This was a Codson Python, a seventh-rank pet. While it was a Codson Python, it was highly toxic. Among the seventh-rank pets, Codson Pythons were the most difficult to deal with.
Upon seeing the giant python, Fan Ganglie and the others revealed a hint of seriousness in their eyes. This was especially so for Li Ying and Fan Yujing. They were somewhat fearful and were unwilling to approach the giant python.
Generally speaking, such ferocious and bloodthirsty pets could easily lose control. Given their strength, if this giant python lost control, it could kill them in an instant.
Although they didn't think Lin Mokong could make a seventh-rank pet lose control, this was a matter of life and death. Who would dare to be careless?
They had to admit that the Codson Python was a strong deterrent. The moment it came out, the explorers from the other teams subconsciously made way for it.
"Let's go!"
Fan Ganglie said in a low voice.
The Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf and the Codson Python set off side by side. The wolf and the python soon rushed into the darkness ahead.
The farther they were from the exit of the space fracture, the deeper the darkness. The flames could no longer be seen.
After arriving at the space fracture, Su Ping had become extremely serious. He was even more focused than when exploring the cultivation planes. He extended his senses to a large extent and sensed the movements around him. He didn't completely rely on Li Ying's scouting.
"There is an unknown Astral Pet up ahead," Li Ying suddenly said.
He could only know the number and size of the Astral Pet from the information sent back by the birds, but he didn't know what kind of Astral Pet it was.
Fan Ganglie didn't want to complicate matters. He said, "Is there a way around it?"
Li Ying closed his eyes and opened them after a while. "There are Astral Pets on other routes nearby, and there is more than one."
"Then let's go and take a look. We'll retreat if it's an advanced Astral Pet," Lin Mokong said at once.
Fan Ganglie had no objection. He had the same idea as Lin Mokong when it came to such a simple judgment.
Soon, they got closer. They saw an Astral Pet the size of an elephant drinking water by a lake by the forest.
Fan Ganglie took out something that looked like a night-vision device from his backpack. He was relieved after taking a look. "It's a sixth-rank Tiger Scale Tapir."
"Kill it." Lin Mokong made a prompt decision.
Fan Ganglie nodded and was about to take action. Su Ping frowned. All of a sudden, he felt something was wrong. Seeing that they were about to take action, he said, "Wait."
"What?"
Fan Ganglie turned around and looked at Su Ping in confusion.
Lin Mokong frowned and looked at Su Ping as well. He didn't have a good impression of this newbie who had no experience in exploring. If Su Ping didn't say anything important, Lin Mokong would suggest that he keep quiet.
Su Ping said to Fan Ganglie, "Did you see it clearly just now? Was that really a Tiger Scale Tapir?"
Fan Ganglie frowned and said, "It was night but I saw it clearly."
"Let me have a look." Su Ping asked for the night-vision goggles.
"Are you being unreasonable? Or are you afraid of death?" Lin Mokong pulled a long face and glared at Su Ping.
Li Ying was unhappy as well. Su Ping was obviously worried that it wasn't a Tiger Scale Tapir, but some other pet. That was too cowardly! Besides, he knew that the captain never lied or said anything that he wasn't sure about. Otherwise, they would have died many times over!
Fan Yujing was embarrassed. He whispered, "Brother SU, the captain can't be wrong."
"That's right." Fan Ganglie trusted what he saw. He didn't think that his vision was worse than Su Ping's. If he was wrong, then Su Ping couldn't have seen it clearly!
Su Ping's face fell when he heard their words.
He wouldn't be polite when it came to his life.
He looked at Lin Mokong with cold eyes and said emotionlessly, "Afraid of death? Don't tell me all the pioneers are like you, charging forward mindlessly? "
Lin Mokong's expression changed. "What did you say?"
If it weren't for the fact that he saw Su Ping's eyes, which made his heart tremble, he would have drawn his sword and attacked.
Su Ping's eyes were cold without a trace of warmth. "Feel the temperature carefully. If I remember correctly, Tiger Scale Tapirs don't come out easily in this season.
Besides, Tiger Scale Tapirs rarely drink water. They mainly eat small insects to replenish their water. When they are very thirsty, they will also eat plants to replenish their water. They are omnivorous Astral Pets. "
They were stunned.
Feeling the cool breeze around them, they were both surprised and puzzled.
Fan Ganglie stared at Su Ping. "Are you serious?"
"Do you think I would joke with you?" Su Ping looked at him coldly.
