The Ice Fire Wasteland was about one-tenth the size of the Holy Domain. Even to Sovereign Personages, it was vast.
The Ice Fire Wasteland was divided into the periphery, the inner area, and the core. After passing the core, there was a boundless lightning sea. Even Faux Gods would not be able to traverse the entire lightning sea.
Xiao Chen did not have much ambition. For the past few days, he had been killing Faux Beast mastiffs in the Ice Fire Wasteland's periphery. After one month, he had already killed more than one thousand mastiffs.
This was a horrifying number. On average, Xiao Chen killed thirty-odd mastiffs every day.
Even Mu Yunzhu would have to put in a lot of effort to kill thirty-odd mastiffs when they attacked together.
Of course, it was more likely that Xiao Chen did not know how to kill mastiffs at all.
The mastiffs' strength was still acceptable. The main thing was that they moved in packs. Most importantly, they had a berserk nature in their bones. Compared to the crafty and intelligent Faux Beasts, the mastiffs would not rest until one of them died. Killing mastiffs was a waste of effort.
Since that was the case, Mu Yunzhu might as well enter the inner area or the periphery and take the risk to kill those high-ranked Faux Beasts.
Xiao Chen was different. Right now, he could kill one hundred mastiffs in one go. If he used all sorts of means, the mastiffs would not be able to run even if they wanted to.
"In the past month, I refined one hundred and fifty kilograms of Primeval Divine Liquid. The bottleneck has loosened significantly. Compared to closed-door cultivation, I have improved a lot. However, I still have not broken through this bottleneck! "
Outside the Ice Fire Wasteland, Xiao Chen, who was currently hunting a pack of mastiffs, frowned slightly, feeling somewhat dissatisfied with his progress.
Xiao Chen obtained one hundred and fifty kilograms of Primeval Divine Liquid in one month. Furthermore, he was only a Great Perfection Sovereign Personage. If others found out about this harvest, they would feel envious. Xiao Chen's friends had to work together in this Ice Fire Wasteland to obtain such a harvest.
However, Xiao Chen was very strict with himself.
"Time in the Faux God World is too precious."
After casually knocking away a mastiff that pounced over, Xiao Chen split his attention and thought about something else.
During the battle between the Demon Blood Vulture and the mastiffs, Xiao Chen happened to discover that the Demon Blood Vulture could consume Faux Beasts.
The mastiffs' ferocious might was extremely compatible with its nature, allowing it to grow quickly.
"Eh?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows. Suddenly, he noticed that the hundred-odd mastiffs that he had been hunting suddenly began to run away when they saw that they were about to fall into a desperate situation.
He ran away!
The mastiffs ran amok in the periphery of the Ice Fire Wasteland due to their frenzied and ferocious nature. A large part of the reason people ran when they saw them was that they would not rest until they were dead.
But now, this group of mastiffs that were the size of small mountains actually ran away when they were on the verge of death.
Don't tell me you're scared of me …
Xiao Chen had hunted more than a thousand mastiffs, but this was the first time he had encountered such a situation. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
"Chase!"
Xiao Chen gently leaped up and landed on the Demon Blood Vulture's back, frantically giving chase.
Seeing that the harvest was about to begin, the hundred-odd mastiffs actually began to flee. There was no reason to let go of a cooked duck.
Thunder Monarch Spear!
On the Demon Blood Vulture's back, Xiao Chen waved his hand, and nine short spears containing the Daos of the five elements — metal, wood, water, fire, and earth — shot out.
Each half-meter-long Thunder Monarch Spear was like a Treasure Weapon, flickering with light and bursting with electric light. When they connected, they looked like a five-element world, exuding an extremely strong pressure.
"Bang!"
When the nine Thunder Monarch Spears landed, they immediately killed nine mastiffs. Then, they exploded, killing another ten-odd mastiffs.
Xiao Chen gently pushed off with his feet and hovered in the air, getting the Demon Blood Vulture to continue giving chase. He landed and waited for the mastiffs' corpses to scatter and the Primeval Divine Liquid to appear.
When the Primeval Divine Liquid appeared, Xiao Chen waved his hand and collected it into a jade bottle.
"Divine Firmament Nine Variations, Everlasting Thunder Shadow!"
The instant Xiao Chen landed, he executed the Divine Firmament Nine Variations, leaving a purple mark. In the next moment, he reappeared on the Demon Blood Vulture's back.
When one-hundred-odd mastiffs fled at the same time, the commotion they caused was incredibly huge.
When the other trial-takers saw this scene along the way, they were all frightened silly. Some of them could not dodge in time and even got injured by the mastiffs.
"Am I seeing things? Why is there someone chasing after mastiffs?! "
"The mastiffs that are like mad dogs actually fled … I'm not hallucinating, right?"
"This is my first time seeing someone chasing after mastiffs. In the past, we always ran when we saw mastiffs."
"It's him! The Dog Killing Frenzied Demon!"
"No wonder. It turns out to be the Dog Killing Frenzied Demon."
At first, when the cultivators along the way saw the hill-sized mastiffs fleeing wildly, they were all startled. However, when they saw Xiao Chen wearing the Alloy Battle Armor on the Demon Blood Vulture's back, they all revealed expressions of understanding, no longer feeling surprised.
Everyone in the Ice Fire Wasteland's periphery already knew about the Dog Killing Frenzied Demon.
Some people even took the initiative to lead the mastiffs to where Xiao Chen was when they had nowhere to run. However, Xiao Chen did not say anything.
"Who is this person?"
When a group of cultivators in black clothes with flaming clouds hurried along the Ice Fire Wasteland's periphery saw this scene, they marveled at it and stopped.
The one who spoke was a youth with an extraordinary aura. He actually surpassed a heaven-defying Sovereign Personage, a half-step Sovereign Emperor.
"Senior Brother Fang, this is the Heavenly Alliance's Xiao Chen, the Heavenly Alliance's youngest member. Back then, he was the one who broke the records of the first and second floors. "
"How incredible! To think that he chased after a group of mastiffs!"
"How strong? I heard that he said that he would not fear Mu Yunzhu after half a year on the Comprehension Platform. However, Mu Yunzhu avoided him after half a year."
"I heard that he did not break the record back then. Furthermore, what is so great about killing these mastiffs? They are just some rabid dogs that no one is willing to offend. The true experts are like Senior Brother Fang, charging into the Ice Fire Wasteland's core. "
The Universe Origin Sect disciples felt disdain for Xiao Chen. After the man with the family name Fang listened for a long time, he lost interest. He only looked at Xiao Chen's Alloy Battle Armor in a somewhat distracted manner. "How unfortunate. To think that he went to kill dogs while wearing the Alloy Battle Armor … If it were me, I would be fully confident in this trip."
The Alloy Battle Armor!
This was the foundation of the Heavenly Alliance's members. If they did not have sufficient accumulations, they needed resources. Any member of a super faction would covet the Alloy Battle Armor. However, that was just that. Even if non-Heavenly Alliance members snatched the Alloy Battle Armor, they would not be able to activate it; they could only look at it.
"Let's go. We still have something to do."
The man with the family name Fang withdrew his gaze and led the Universe Origin Sect disciples to the depths of the Ice Fire Wasteland.
The appearance of this group of people attracted some attention in the Ice Fire Wasteland's periphery.
This immediately incited discussions, guessing what they were going to do.
"It's Fang Shaobai, one of the Universe Origin Sect's top ten disciples. He is a half-step Sovereign Emperor. I wonder why he is here?"
"The Ice Fire Wasteland has been very lively recently. It seems like some of the top ten disciples of the various super factions are here."
"Could it be the Ice Fire Divine Origin in the core?"
"That might really be possible. Looking at the time, the Ice Fire Divine Origin should be about to appear. Should we go and take a look?"
"Never mind. Every time the Ice Fire Divine Origin appears, there will be people dying. As long as we can safely survive ten years in the Faux God World, it will be a great opportunity. There is no need to risk our lives. "
"That's right. Many outstanding talents did not know how to restrain themselves and ended up dying. We do not have the lives of outstanding talents, so there is no need to worry about the hearts of outstanding talents. We just do what we need to do. "
These words were very true. Compared to outsiders, being able to enter the Faux God World was a great opportunity. There was indeed no need for ordinary people to get greedy. It was important to understand one's own strength.
Even so, there were still some people in the Ice Fire Wasteland's periphery who felt tempted when they heard that the Ice Fire Divine Origin was about to appear, so they quietly flew to the inner area.
At this moment, Xiao Chen did not know about this. He continued his great task of killing the mastiffs.
After a chase, only a few of the hundred-odd mastiffs remained. Only ten-odd were still running wildly.
If not for waiting for the corpses to scatter and collecting the Primeval Divine Liquid, which took some time, these mastiffs would not have wasted so much time.
As Xiao Chen gave chase, he thought to himself, Faux Beasts are intelligent as well.
Although the mastiffs have a crazed, reckless spirit in their bones, it is not strange for them to wake up after being killed for more than a month.
However, hunting mastiffs in the future would be somewhat problematic.
If Xiao Chen had to chase after them for half a day every time, it would be a waste of time. The gains would not make up for the losses. It looks like I will have to enter the Ice Fire Wasteland's inner area in advance.
The mastiffs have become smarter. I cannot continue this business.
"How tiring!"
Xiao Chen finally dealt with the final ten-odd mastiffs. He had chased them for more than six hours. It was not very tiring, but it did take some time.
"Ga!
Ga! "Just at this moment, the Demon Blood Vulture suddenly turned wary. It seemed to sense some danger, and all its feathers swelled up.
Master, I feel that something is wrong.
Xiao Chen did not sense anything wrong. However, the Demon Blood Vulture was a ferocious beast. Compared to humans, it had an instinctive sense of unknown danger.
"Let's go!"
After carefully looking around, Xiao Chen leaped onto the Demon Blood Vulture's back and returned the way they came.
After flying fifty thousand kilometers calmly, rows of mastiffs appeared at the limits of Xiao Chen's vision. Their chaotic and lifeless eyes flickered with a scarlet light as they looked coldly and emotionlessly at him.
"Boom!"
Large patches of black clouds appeared in the sky above these mastiffs. When Xiao Chen looked around, the churning black clouds charged at him from all directions.
Soon, the demonic clouds gathered in all directions, and the sky instantly turned dark.
"Clatter! Clatter!"
Heavy footsteps resounded. The seemingly densely packed mastiffs blocked off all directions, encircling Xiao Chen step by step.
It turned out that during the chase, Xiao Chen had arrived at an extremely desolate place in the Ice Fire Wasteland's periphery.
The Demon Blood Vulture under Xiao Chen's feet trembled slightly. Clearly, it felt afraid of so many mastiffs.
Master, what should we do?
The Demon Blood Vulture had never seen such a large formation before. Despite its demonic nature and fearless nature, it actually felt somewhat timid.
The Demon Blood Vulture looked around and saw the densely packed mastiffs. There were at least four or five thousand of them.
All the mastiffs in the entire Ice Fire Wasteland were probably here for Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen's expression did not change as he muttered to himself, "Even the dogs are scheming like humans. How much hatred do they have?"
