The next morning, Lin Huang felt refreshed when he woke up.
He washed up and ate some snacks that he had prepared beforehand as breakfast. He then put away the tent and left the cave.
As soon as he got out of the cave, he saw a horde of monsters.
The monsters were running towards the northwest at the bottom of the cliff while the monsters were climbing up the cliff walls. They looked like a massive colony of ants that were migrating on a large scale.
Many of the monsters noticed Lin Huang and leaped towards him.
Seeing that, Lin Huang summoned Bai, Lancelot, Thunder, Bing Wang, and Kelly.
As soon as Bai was summoned, Thunder attacked without hesitation when he saw the monsters charging towards Lin Huang.
His Vampire Particles turned into a few sharp blades. As he moved, a few monsters were sliced in half at the waist. They did not even have a drop of blood before they fell to the ground.
Lancelot, Thunder, and Bing Wang landed on the ground one after another. They began a new round of killing.
Bai joined the hunting party immediately.
The four monsters that were good at killing monsters in groups were like tigers entering a flock of sheep. The mortal transformation-level monsters were killed instantly.
Seeing that, Kelly summoned the Nephilic Judge Army to collect the corpses.
Lin Huang turned around to look at the monster horde behind him with a strange expression. The monsters that had passed by him and Bai did not turn around to attack them. Instead, they continued running towards the northwest. The monsters that were climbing up the cliff walls did not jump down to attack him and his summoning beasts. Instead, they continued to climb up.
"These monsters are behaving strangely." Lin Huang frowned and said softly, "If it's a normal monster horde, no matter where I am, they'll treat me as their target as long as they can see or sense me. They won't stop until they kill me. However, the monsters that passed by us ignored me. They didn't turn around to attack me. Instead, they continued to move forward. Only the ones who saw me from the front attacked me. "
"There are two possibilities for this to happen," Bloody explained to Lin Huang.
"The first possibility is that they are migrating or fleeing and have no time to deal with you. Those who saw you directly attacked because you blocked their path, not because you are a human. "
"The second possibility is that they received powerful instructions. Compared to their orders, you are not important at all. That's why they chose to ignore you and continue with their orders. "
"It's actually not a bad thing. At least, it means that we don't have to kill all the monsters along the way to move forward," Bloody added.
"You mean, shrink the hunting area and speed up?" Lin Huang raised his eyebrows. "But in that case, the pressure on Ravenous Wolf and the others will increase a lot."
"They don't have any monsters to kill at all now …" Feeling helpless, Bloody could only tell Lin Huang about how Tan Lang and the rest had been bored from the afternoon to the night since Lin Huang intercepted them.
"Not only Tan Lang and the rest, but the few government residences in the northwest and the Luotian Sect also didn't have any kills yesterday afternoon and night because we intercepted them.
"Moreover, the Luotian Sect could not help but send two teams to investigate the situation last night. Fortunately, the monster horde returned to normal after we rested last night. The two teams encountered the monster horde not long after they left, so they retreated.
"There's Li Jia too. He sent a couple of bugs to investigate. Fortunately, his bugs have a limited range of detection. They didn't find anything since they were less than 300 kilometers away. "
"Alright, I neglected this point." Lin Huang thought that he would kill as many monsters as he could so that Tan Lang and the rest would have less pressure. Never had he thought that he would bring them doubts instead.
"Let's go forward as fast as we can and get to the center of the gully as soon as possible. Then, we'll officially start hunting there. That way, we can relieve the pressure from the outside world without cutting off one of the branches. "Lin Huang soon came up with a new plan.
"We can do that before advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters appear." Bloody nodded. "However, as soon as advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters appear in the monster horde, it'll be difficult for us to survive in the center of the gully with our abilities. We'll have to retreat to one of the gullies."
"Sure, it's decided then." Lin Huang understood what Bloody meant.
As soon as the monster horde leveled up to advanced-stage ascendance-level monsters, their combat strength would be equivalent to immortal-level rank-6 to rank-9. It would be difficult for Bing Wang and the rest to kill monsters of such a level as soon as they had a stronger defense. Some triple mutated immortal-level rank-9 monsters even had the ability to fight Bing Wang and the rest head-on. As soon as Bing Wang and the rest were entangled by one of the monsters, it would be difficult for them to break free from the monster horde. They would most likely die by then.
After giving Bai and the rest a new order, Lin Huang and the rest sped up and headed towards the center of the gully.
The closer they were to the center of the gully, the lower the terrain was and the wider it was. It was like a narrow fan-shaped slope.
The deeper Lin Huang went into the center of the gully, the more monsters they encountered.
Bai and the rest worked together and went deeper into the monster horde like an arrow. They no longer bothered about the monsters on their left and right.
The monsters that passed Lin Huang and the rest did not turn around to attack. Instead, they proceeded to head northwest.
After changing their hunting strategy, Lin Huang and the rest traveled much faster. They could travel up to 1,000 kilometers per hour.
When the sky was turning dark, Lin Huang finally saw the center of the gully from far away.
It was a gigantic bowl-shaped sunken area that looked like a gigantic meteorite crater. There was a gigantic hole in the center of the 'meteorite crater'.
To Lin Huang, the eight gigantic gullies looked like eight thin legs of a giant spider that had extended out. Meanwhile, the sunken hole looked like the spider's heart.
Lin Huang got Bai and the rest to fight their way into the bowl-shaped 'meteorite crater'. He stood at the edge of the sunken hole and looked down. It was pitch black. Apart from the various monsters that were climbing tens of meters away from the edge of the hole, he could not see anything further down.
"This is the center of the abyss …"
Lin Huang probed with his Divine Telekinesis out of curiosity. However, he could not sense anything as if his Divine Telekinesis had entered a void.
"Bloody, release a few Leech Pods to take a look," Lin Huang said to Bloody after a fruitless exploration.
Bloody immediately released a couple of Leech Pods and sent them to the center of the abyss slowly.
However, it only took a moment before Bloody shook its head. "The connection between the Leech Pods and me has been cut off. I'm not sure if they've been destroyed or if they've drifted into another dimension."
Lin Huang stared at the center of the abyss for a while and shook his head. He gave up the idea of jumping into the abyss to explore.
Lin Huang was elated when he turned his head to look at the giant bowl-shaped area that had a diameter of hundreds of kilometers. "This is a great place to farm Glory Points!"
