"Let's work together to kill the break-out creature. After the matter is done, the benefits given by the Lu family will belong to you. If the break-out creature drops anything, it will belong to me. If nothing drops, I'll just blame it on my bad luck," Bida said.
"From the looks of it, there's no way we can cooperate." Zhou Wen was mainly here for the Companion Egg that might drop. He wanted to help An Sheng. Obtaining the Fiend Dust was just in passing, so it was naturally impossible for him to agree to such conditions.
Bida couldn't help but be taken aback. "Aren't you satisfied with obtaining the Lu family's Fiend Dust Mine and the right of first refusal?"
Zhou Wen didn't explain as he constantly scanned the island with Truth Listener. Apart from Zhou Wen, the Zhang and Xia families and the freelance hunters were also using their own methods to search for the break-out creature.
Unfortunately, they found nothing like Zhou Wen. Some people were already beginning to suspect that the break-out creature wasn't on the island at all.
Zhou Wen thought for a moment before carrying Ya 'er towards the volcano. If the break-out creature could really be on this island, it could only be inside the volcano.
"Zhou Wen, are you really not going to consider it? The chances of a break-out creature dropping a Companion Egg are very low … "Bida persuaded Zhou Wen.
"Since the chances of a Companion Egg dropping are very low, why are you trying your luck?" Zhou Wen said casually.
"I don't have the ability to kill a break-out creature. I can only try my luck," Bida said.
"Then there's no other way. I also want to try my luck." As the two of them spoke, they had already approached the volcano crater. There were already quite a number of people gathered at the volcano crater. Zhang Xiao and the Xia family were also here.
From the looks of it, their judgment was the same as Zhou Wen's. They believed that the break-out creature might be hiding inside the volcano.
"Don't tell me you think that the break-out creature is inside the volcano like them?" Bida whispered to Zhou Wen, "Please forgive me for being blunt. Now that they believe that the break-out creature is inside the volcano, it's the best opportunity for us to kill it. If we waste too much time, I'm afraid another accident will happen.
"I can't agree to your conditions." Zhou Wen stopped a distance away from the volcano crater.
The Zhang family and the Xia family had already used fire-elemental Companion Beasts to enter the volcano to search. Zhou Wen used Truth Listener to scan the volcano, but he didn't find any traces of break-out creatures. Instead, he saw a lot of magma inside the volcano. This place was an active volcano, making it very unstable.
That break-out creature should be spatial, not fire-elemental. It shouldn't live in magma, right? Zhou Wen thought.
It was very difficult for Truth Listener to hear the situation in the magma clearly. Unless a Companion Beast went down, it would be very difficult to obtain an outcome.
When Zhang Xiao and company saw Zhou Wen, they were somewhat nervous. Zhou Wen was famous, and they knew how powerful he was. Among so many people, Zhou Wen had the highest chance.
Seeing that Zhou Wen wasn't moved at all, Bida gritted his teeth and said to Zhou Wen, "How about this? The items dropped by the break-out creature will be yours. The Lu family's Fiend Dust will also be yours. I'll only take 30% of the Fiend Dust as a reward. What do you think?"
"In that case, I can consider it," Zhou Wen said after some thought.
"There's no time to lose. Let's hunt the break-out creature while they are still searching the volcano," Bida said.
"Alright, we'll do as you say. Apart from 30% of the Fiend Dust, everything else will belong to me. Do you have any objections?" Zhou Wen asked Bida.
"There's no other way. It's my fault for not having the ability to kill that dimensional creature. I'll just treat it as selling information," Bida said helplessly as he spread out his hands.
Zhou Wen nodded and left the volcano with Bida.
After Bida led Zhou Wen down the volcano, they passed through the forest and arrived at the other side of the coast.
Bida walked along the coast for a while before stopping at a spot. He pointed at the coast below and said, "There's a karst cave below. We have to pass through the seawater. Are you fine with swimming? Also, what about this child? "
"I'm from inland, so I'm not very familiar with water. Does that break-out creature live in the water?" Zhou Wen asked.
"That's not it. However, the underwater part of the karst cave is a little long. If you're good at swimming, it won't be difficult to pass through. If you don't know how to swim, you can only hold your breath and walk over," Bida said.
"Then there's no problem. Let's go." Zhou Wen carried Ya 'er and walked towards the sea.
Bida went into the water first. Zhou Wen used the Black Tortoise Seven Mansions' Protection Essence Energy Skill. After entering the water, the seawater was isolated a foot away, preventing it from touching Zhou Wen's body.
Zhou Wen carried Ya 'er and sank to the bottom of the seawater. Indeed, he saw a black cave below. Bida had already swum in.
Zhou Wen walked along the bottom of the karst cave and followed behind Bida.
Bida was rather good at swimming, but Zhou Wen walked too slowly. All he could do was control his speed and lead Zhou Wen into the karst cave.
The underwater world was extremely magical, especially in the karst cave. There were all kinds of creatures and fish.
The Black Tortoise's Protection Essence Energy Skill had a certain ability to avoid water. Ya 'er curiously sized up the fish. When she saw fish approaching, she extended her hand out of the Black Tortoise Barrier and wasn't obstructed by it.
Although the twenty-eight Lunar Mansions' protection wasn't of a high level, it was somewhat different from ordinary Essence Energy barriers.
The biggest difference was that he could control it freely. Ordinary Essence Energy barriers were forcefully formed Essence Energy barriers, but the barrier formed by the twenty-eight Lunar Mansions' Essence Energy Skills wasn't like that. He could control it as he pleased. Furthermore, it wasn't a simple barrier, but a liquid that enveloped his entire body.
Furthermore, the barriers of different Lunar Mansions had different attributes. For example, the Black Tortoise had the water attribute, the Vermilion Bird had the fire attribute, the Azure Dragon had the wood attribute, and the White Tiger had the metal attribute.
Now, Zhou Wen still lacked an Essence Energy Skill. Without gathering the twenty-eight Lunar Mansions' skills, he didn't know if he would have other special abilities in the future.
The underwater karst cave was winding and bizarre. As they didn't advance in a straight line, they often had to pass through narrow gaps. Furthermore, Zhou Wen wasn't walking fast. After more than half an hour, the two of them passed through the underwater karst cave and emerged from the water.
There was still a karst cave beyond the water surface. However, this karst cave was somewhat different from before. The karst cave here was like a crystal mine, filled with blue crystals.
Zhou Wen quickly discovered that in a cave surrounded by crystals, there was an egg that was half the height of a person.
"Could it be the egg of that break-out creature?" Zhou Wen said as he looked at the egg in surprise.
"I think it's very likely. Your luck is really good. I never expected that break-out creature to lay an egg. This is a Mythical egg. Although it's not a Companion Egg and can't be incubated as a Companion Beast, such a dimensional creature can be easily tamed if it's tamed from a young age," Bida said enviously.
