As a tenth-ranked artificer, Zhu Yao was very confident in refining a mystic tool that could observe luck. Almost as soon as she figured out the principle, she had already thought of the prototype of the magic tool in her mind. Now, she only needed to find the materials to forge it.
"No!" Fa Yu rolled his eyes at her and went back to meditating to recover his spiritual aura.
"What?" Zhu Yao was startled for a moment, before continuing. "Just a palm-sized Rising Symbol Rock will do. Why are you being so stingy?"
Fa Yu still replied with two words, "No!"
"F * ck!" Zhu Yao grew anxious. "This is the only chance to find out Fan Zhishan's true strength. Even if it's for your Tiantian, can't you cooperate a little?"
He lifted his head and glared at her. "Do you think the Rising Symbol Stone is a stone that you use to pad your toilet? You can have as many as you want? "
"Uh …" Her house didn't have a latrine pit, only a toilet bowl. "Is Rising Symbol Stone very rare?" She remembered that when her master gave her the ring, there was a warehouse full of them. When she was learning how to refine weapons, she would often burn them for fun.
"The Rising Symbol Stone originates from the edge of the Regretless Crossing in the depths of Horizon Forest. It is rumored that only one is born every tens of thousands of years." He looked her up and down. "Do you think it's hard to find?"
"Then let's go to Regretless Ferry to find one."
Fa Yu looked at her as if she was an idiot. "Do you know what kind of place Regretless Crossing is?"
"I have no idea!"
The corner of his mouth twitched, took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice, "Horizon Forest is filled with high level beasts, I heard that it is often accompanied by all kinds of strange phenomena, even Demigod Venerables do not dare to rashly enter, not to mention the deepest Regretless Crossing, who knows what is waiting inside. No one has ever come out of it alive. Once you enter, there is no room for regret. That's why it's called Regretless Crossing! "
It sounded very powerful.
"I'm not fully prepared. Entering Horizon Forest is undoubtedly courting death! "
"Wait!" Zhu Yao turned around and left. A moment later, she once again ran back, carrying a six-winged demonic beast which was currently hugging onto an egg. "Enough, I'm ready."
Fa Yu was speechless. "You … you really intend to go?"
"Young people, you must have the spirit of adventure!" Zhu Yao patted on his shoulder. "Didn't you say that the Rising Symbol Stone was at the edge of the Regretless Crossing? We don't have to go in there. He took the materials and left. Sesame, on the other hand, was an eleventh-ranked demonic beast in the first place. Although it had dropped a rank, it still possessed the might of a tenth-ranked demonic beast. I don't think any Demonic Beasts would dare to come near Horizon Forest. "
"…" It seemed to make a lot of sense.
"Let's go, young man!" Zhu Yao said with a stern look. "For world peace!"
"I'm doing this for Tiantian." Fa Yu turned around and rolled his eyes at her. What did world peace have to do with him!
"Uh … Okay. For Tian Tian! "
Thus, a certain someone reluctantly followed along. They flew all the way to the sky above Horizon Forest.
Eh? Wait a minute!
If they could be safe with a tenth-rank demonic beast, then why did they call him along?
"…" Why do I feel like I've been scammed?
— —
Fa Yu was right. This Horizon Forest was simply a paradise for demonic beasts. How long had it been since they entered? He had already seen three rank eight monster beasts, five rank seven monster beasts, and more than ten rank five and six monster beasts. Just how nutritious was this forest? So many demonic beasts liked to join in.
Fortunately, he dragged Sesame along. Though Sesame was usually a little unreliable, dragging him along to act cool. Intimidating the other low rank beasties was still pretty useful. If only it wasn't carrying an egg that was even bigger than itself with a stupid look.
"Mistress!" Sesame suddenly scurried in front of her, and said with a joyful look. "The egg moved … It moved earlier. Did you see that? It's moving too. "
"…" Why did she feel as though it was the first time a husband saw a fetus move? She wasn't the one who gave birth to this egg, so what the hell was she supposed to look at it for!?
"Sesame …" Zhu Yao took a deep breath. "If you don't keep this nest, do you believe that I will find some chopped green onions and fry it right now!"
Sesame immediately leaped a few steps back while carrying the egg. With a complaining look, he said. "Mistress … You're so ruthless. No matter what, this beastie is infatuated with you. We've been through thick and thin together for several lifetimes, and I have no regrets. I will accompany you to the heavens and into the earth. You actually … actually … treat us lonely beasts like this. Wuuuuuuuu … "
"Three …"
"What happened to living and dying together, and never abandoning each other?"
"Two …"
"I'll keep it right now, right now! I'll keep it immediately. " Sesame's paw moved, and that gigantic white demonic egg instantly disappeared. "I'll go scout ahead." With a leap, it wobbled its buttocks forward to bully the beasties that were of a lower rank than it. Haah, the days of not being able to openly see my future wife are so lonely.
Only then did Zhu Yao put down her hand that was casting the incantation. When she turned her head, she bumped into Fa Yu's strange gaze. "What?" This gaze was rather horrifying.
He frowned, and after a while, he said. "Your true form can't be a demonic beast as well, right?"
"Ah?" Where did you come to that conclusion from?
"No wonder we look so alike."
"What do we look alike …" Speak clearly, hey. In what way do I look alike to that idiot Sesame?
Fa Yu did not have the intention to continue explaining. With a cold snort, he walked past her and walked in front. He had an expression that said that other than his Tiantian, everyone else in this world was trash.
He suddenly had the urge to take revenge on society!
The forest was Sesame's home turf. With it opening the path, they basically did not encounter any dangers along the way. Occasionally, one or two demonic beasts with bad eyesight would jump out, but they would be sent flying with a single slap of its paw.
Adding that its injuries had already recovered, the cracks on its Inner Core had disappeared as well. However, if it wanted to recover to the eleventh-rank, it would have to slowly cultivate on its own. Although Fa Yu's mouth was venomous, he was still rather reliable. Regarding the matter of familiarizing herself with using sword intent to heal injuries, she only had to explain it to him in detail once, and he was already able to understand it thoroughly. Although he spent more time than her, using an entire month, the result was still gratifying.
After entering Horizon Forest, they flew on their swords in the beginning, but as they went deeper in, they changed to walking. Using the Ground Shrinking Art to advance, they walked just like that for eight hours, when Sesame suddenly stopped.
As though it had sensed something, it no longer acted like a carefree husky. Its entire body tensed up, as it stared fixedly at the dense forest in front of them.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yao and Fa Yu stopped as well.
"In front …" Sesame raised one of its paws, and pointed to the front. "I sense the pressure of tenth-rank demonic beasts, and … there's more than one."
"Two?"
Sesame shook its head, and even the wings on its body had straightened. "A lot … A lot."
Zhu Yao was startled. Tenth-rank demonic beasts, and a group at that. This forest sure was rich in resources! Demonic beasts had a sense of territory. Recalling the demonic beast forests she saw back then, each forest would at most have a single tenth-rank demonic beast. Occasionally, she would encounter two, and they would definitely be a couple. Sesame actually sensed a lot of them. This didn't make sense.
What should she do? Zhu Yao turned to look at Fa Yu.
He frowned, and then coldly turned around, giving her a 'I knew you trash can't do anything about it' expression. With a wave of his hand, he tossed a talisman to her, and then took one for himself. Patting it on his chest, he instantly disappeared before her eyes.
Aura Concealment Talisman! Zhu Yao lowered her head to take a look. It was actually a high-grade Aura Concealment Talisman. She immediately patted it on her own body as well, and the disappeared Fa Yu once again appeared in front of her.
"This is the only tenth-rank Aura Concealment Talisman in Grandhall Sect. As long as we don't get too close, even Demigod practitioners will not be able to sense us." He coldly explained.
Tenth-Rank! Zhu Yao was a little excited. It seemed like it was pretty awesome!
Fa Yu pondered for a moment, and then added. "Remember to calculate the spirit stones when we get back."
"…" The hell. So there was still a need to calculate the spirit stones. Could it not be that Ling Tian girly's account?
"Tiantian is Tiantian, and you are you!" As though he had thought of what she wanted to say, Fa Yu immediately refuted.
Zhu Yao wanted to ask about his family's ancestral tree!
After pasting the talismans, the two humans and one beast entered the dense forest in front of them. They had only advanced a short distance, when they reached out to pull the lush branches in front of them. In an instant, Zhu Yao and her little companion were dumbfounded.
A small market actually appeared in front of them. It was a little similar to a practitioner's market, however, the ones coming and going were all demonic beasts. Some of them had turned into human forms, while some were still in beast forms. However, without exception, they were all tenth-rank demonic beasts.
This market was extremely simple and crude, and there were only a few simple sheds built using trees. Under every single shed, either a human or a beast was squatting down. Furthermore, the goods being traded were extremely simple and plain as well, to the point that … there were only fruits and spiritual herbs. Furthermore, they did not have any currency that could be used between them. Basically, they were bartering. Fruits were exchanged for spiritual herbs, and spiritual herbs were exchanged for fruits. However, without exception, those spiritual fruits and spiritual herbs were all things that practitioners yearned for even in their dreams.
This was basically an exhibition of the local specialties of the demonic beast forest with high quality yet low standards. Furthermore, these demonic beasts were not like practitioners. Basically, there was no such thing as haggling over the price. Most of the time, they were extremely honest, and would leave after exchanging for something. There was completely no sign of them taking more than what they wanted! It was no wonder when they did not enter earlier, they did not hear any commotion.
Zhu Yao suddenly recalled the tenth rank beastie that was extremely successful as a merchant back then, Chen Ning. It seemed like beasties had talent in business as well.
"What should we do?" Zhu Yao sent a voice transmission to Fa Yu next to her. There were too many tenth rank demonic beasts here. Even if they had Aura Concealment Talismans on them, they could not guarantee that they would not be discovered at all. "Should we take a detour?"
Just as Fa Yu was about to reply, he suddenly blanked for a moment. With a stern expression, he looked behind her.
"What's wrong?" Just as she was about to turn her head, Fa Yu suddenly pressed her down. In an instant, she was pressed onto the ground, and her mouth was filled with mud.
"Why are they here?" He muttered with a sunken voice. "Could they have followed us here?"
Zhu Yao, whose face was buried in the mud: "…"
The hell! Can you let go of my head first? The hell, this lady here isn't a potato, do I have to be planted in the mud? She continuously kicked him a few times, and only then did Fa Yu let go of her head without any guilt in his heart.
Zhu Yao wiped off the mud on her face. I'll endure it!
Turning her head, she followed his line of sight. When she saw the three men and one woman in the distance, Zhu Yao simply wanted to say one sentence.
The hell!
He's like a ghost that refuses to go away! (To be continued)
