An Lin immediately shook his head.


No! I refuse to go back! If one doesn’t even dare to dream, then how are they different from salted fish? We’ve obtained so much information and are the closest to the Kirin Blood Jade! How could we give up now?!
he interrogated in a vehement voice.


But… I’m a cow, not a person, moo!
Ao Niu retorted with a serious expression.

The Divine Poison Frog spoke with an earnest expression,
And I’m just a frog, ribbit!



And my only dream is to return home, ribbit!
the Divine Poison Frog added, as if it was afraid An Lin would still be unconvinced.


An Lin stared speechlessly at these two cowardly beasts.

It made sense though. After all, if they weren’t cowards, they would have chosen death before surrender.

There were even Spirit Nurturing Stage spirit beasts that could set aside life and death to challenge Soul Formation Stage soul beast.

However… These two were clearly not the same!

An Lin didn’t really expect much from them anyway. Instead, he turned his attention back to devising a feasible course of action.

Could they just cop everything?

Xu Xiaolan wouldn’t be able to, but his skin might be thick enough.

Also, he had his two trump cards to help everyone, so perhaps they could…

But the risks were quite high, and if they couldn’t pull it off, they would suffer the same tragic fate that the Gluten Lord had suffered.

He shuddered slightly as he thought about what it would be like to be shredded into countless pieces before being crushed by the Oppressive Stars.



Let’s get down to think about this for now.
An Lin heaved a resigned sigh.

Thus, everyone arrived back onto the ground, where they looked up at the red floating continent.

Xu Xiaolan tucked a few stray strands of hair behind her ear before speaking,
So… all the beasts that have come here have died. Just what kind of danger was it that could wipe all of them out? From our situation, it appears that all the hazards here actually have to be triggered in order to take effect. As such, beasts like the two cowardly ones with us should be able to flee the scene and survive, so how did they all die?


Ao Niu and the Divine Poison Frog felt as if they had just been insulted again.

But that didn’t matter. They could take any verbal abuse as long as they could get out of this place!

Xu Xiaolan’s words indicated that there were other hazards around. Not just the passive hazards on the floating continent that had to be triggered to take effect, but also the active hazards that could wipe out entire teams of beasts.

An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were still undecided about whether they should just take a risk.

This was the Kirin Blood Jade that the Divine Bat Emperor sought after, and the Celestial Thearch was willing to pay fifty million spirit stones to purchase… And it was so close to them!

How could they just give up on something like this?

Thus, they continued to think of ways to get past their predicament.


The idea proposed by the two beasts were taken into consideration by An Lin and Xu Xiaolan, but with such a brilliant opportunity laid out before them, it was simply too much for them to pass up.

Just as they were struggling for ideas, the sound of pounding feet and hooves sounded in the distance.

An Lin and the others turned to discover more beasts approaching, and there were quite a few of them too!

An Lin unleashed his powerful divine sense, which swept outward for several dozen kilometers, engulfing the entire group of beasts.


Six Soul Formation Stage soul beasts and sixteen Spirit Nurturing Stage spirit beasts…



Hmm? There’s a soul beast that was able to detect my divine sense with its own! And it’s trying to disrupt me!
A hint of astonishment appeared on An Lin’s face.

His divine sense was more powerful than the majority of Return to Void Stage mighty figures.

For a divine sense as powerful as An Lin’s to be detected and disrupted, it suggested that there was a soul beast with an extremely powerful divine sense among the group of approaching beasts.

The group of approaching beasts gradually slowed down. They were clearly quite cautious of An Lin and his group and refrained from charging in recklessly.


How interesting…
A slight smile appeared on An Lin’s face.
This is the first time I’ve seen such cautious beasts.



It looked like their enemies this time were unlike any beasts they had faced before.

The group of beasts had slowed down, but they were still approaching. All of them pulled out their weapons and unleashed their domains, upon which an extremely vast aura swept forth, indicating that they were ready for battle.

The Divine Poison Frog’s legs almost gave out from under it when it saw the beast at the forefront of the approaching group.
It… It’s here!


An Lin turned to the frog with a curious expression.
Who is that?



The leader of the Divine Bat Emperor’s Divine Guardian Squad, the Peerless Saber Demon,
the Divine Poison Frog replied in a trembling voice.

An Lin nodded upon hearing this. That beast was most likely the one that had detected his divine sense. As expected of the Divine Guardian Squad leader, it was indeed quite powerful.

However, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan’s expressions became a little peculiar upon seeing the Peerless Saber Demon.


It… It’s so cute!
Xu Xiaolan remarked in a surprised voice.


Hmm, it is indeed very adorable.
An Lin nodded in agreement.

The Peerless Saber Demon at the forefront of the group of beasts was a groundhog about half as tall as a grown man!


Its fur was golden and luscious, and it appeared extremely soft.

Terrifying might exuded from its adorable, golden eyes, and it held two huge snowy white sabers, from which extremely powerful energy fluctuations could be detected, giving it a valiant, ferocious look.

Even though it did look quite ferocious, it was extremely adorable compared to all the menacing beasts around it…

No, it was extremely adorable even without those beasts in comparison!

An Lin was initially a little intimidated by the surging aura sweeping toward them, but a strange emotion welled up in its heart upon seeing the Peerless Saber Demon.

He was very fond of eating groundhog meat in the past…

He was wondering if a groundhog this big would be more delicious…

The Peerless Saber Demon drew closer and closer, and it finally caught sight of the human who he detected a certain sense of pressure from. However, what was a little frightening to it was that it could see a hint of scorching desire on the human’s face, along with some sort of translucent liquid dripping from the corner of his lips…

This…

Could this be a hallucination?

The Peerless Saber Demon’s golden eyes widened. It simply couldn’t shake the feeling that that human wanted it!

That’s right, he either wanted to own it or to eat it!

This was an animalistic instinct… But its instincts were uncannily accurate.


Stop!


The Peerless Saber Demon suddenly instructed the group of beasts behind it to halt in their advance.


What is it, team leader?
a Soul Formation Stage soul beast asked.

Suddenly stopping like this would affect their morale, so all the beasts were a bit curious about why this decision was being made.

The Peerless Saber Demon looked at the human male in the distance, and its mouth twitched involuntarily.

The man had pulled out a sword, which wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. But why the fck had he also pulled out a frying pan?!

Was he afraid that his intentions weren’t being made clear enough?!


Something’s a little off… Let’s not charge in recklessly!
the Peerless Saber Demon said with difficulty.

The groundhog was sure that the man was the owner of the powerful divine sense it had just detected.

As such, it was not going to evaluate his strength based on his cultivation base, as that terrifying divine sense had already cautioned it against judging a book by its cover.

The groundhog was not going to get careless. It could even see the disappointment in the human male’s eyes as the group of beasts paused in their advance…

Humans were much more terrifying than beasts when they went mad!
