Chapter 109: Chapter 109 Wind Wolf 1
Roar~
Upon receiving Blaze Regret's praise, Red beamed with satisfaction and let out a resounding roar that echoed across the sky.
Blaze Regret skillfully extracted the Spirit Beast core from the spiny porcupine and carefully collected any valuable materials from the creature, storing them in his Void Realm stone. Now, fully immersed in his adventure, he understood the necessity of earning his own money to survive and purchase essential items.
With unwavering resolve, he pressed on, making his way towards the mysterious Hiltan Town.
Many spirit beast have a migratory habit for food and survival, leading to a wide variety of Spirit beast species encountered along the way.
After entering Tall Mountain, the density of wild Spirit beast is far greater than that at the foot of the mountain, and Blaze Regret detect many wild spirit beast each time he went deeper.
The wild Spirit beast of Tall Mountain mainly consist of earth hedgehogs, crawling insects, larks, and sharp beaked porcupines, all of which are relatively common Spirit beast.
Unfortunately, throughout his journey, Blaze Regret encountered only low grade Spirit beast with no cultivation value, that make him feel down because he did not find any rare spirit beast.
Whenever he encountered aggressive Spirit beast, Blaze Regret would command Red to fight, enhancing Red's combat abilities.
As he continued on, after a small half day, Blaze Regret found himself at the end of the foot of Tall Mountain.
Tall Mountain isn't very high, with its highest point only about four to five hundred meters, but it covers a vast area, spanning dozens of miles, giving the impression of a mountain range.
Along the way, Blaze Regret's gains were not substantial; he only collected some low grade Spirit beast cores and a few low grade spiritual herbs.
The proportion of high quality Spirit beast is quite low. According to Blaze Regret's analysis, it often takes hundreds of wild Spirit beast to find one high quality Spirit beast.
At the end of the foot of the mountain, there is a rugged dirt path, at most half a meter wide, surrounded by dense shrubs and weeds, where many wild Spirit beast may be lurking.
In the forest, dangers abound!
Looking at the winding dirt path, Blaze Regret noticeably heightened his vigilance; no one knows what dangers lie ahead.
Compared to the back mountain forest behind Blaze manor, the vegetation here is denser, and the density of wild Spirit beast is even greater, making it undoubtedly more dangerous.
Additionally, there are also group wild Spirit beast, such as the pack of stone wolves that Blaze Regret detact with help from master magi.
Compared to ordinary Spirit beast, group Spirit beast often have weaker individual strength, but their sheer numbers make them a greater threat than lonely Spirit beast.
Without sufficient strength, no one would provoke group Spirit beast for no reason; otherwise, the consequences would be dire.
This time, his mission is go thorough this tall mountain first, if he encountered a small number of stone wolves, he would seize the opportunity to strike; otherwise, he would run as far as he could.
With Blaze Regret's speed, unless he encountered mid tier warrior grade stone wolves, the chances of escape were quite high.
Not long after setting off, Blaze Regret was forced to stop. His expression changed as he looked at the scene, which was shrouded in uncertainty.
Not far away, on a tree large enough for several people to embrace, hung a colossal beehive with a three meter diameter, swarming with wild bees the size of human heads darting in and out.
"Oh no, that's a first tier warrior level murder hornet nest!"
The moment Blaze Regret laid eyes on the hive and the menacing bees, he recognized the danger.
Murder hornets may lack individual strength, but they operate in aggressive swarms, striking fear into the hearts of even the most formidable Spirit Beasts, who tend to avoid of them whenever possible.
Without a moment's hesitation, Blaze Regret swiftly mounted Red and commanded it to retreat from the area.
The reaction of the murder hornets was lightning quick; as soon as Blaze Regret turned away, a swarm of giant hornets burst forth from the hive, their ominous buzzing echoing ominously as they lunged toward him.
Many Spirit Beasts possess a keen sense of territory, especially group ones. The moment an intruder encroaches, they respond with ferocity, and the murder hornet swarm is notoriously formidable.
To evade the hornet swarm, one must put distance between themselves and the nest; only then can they hope to escape.
"Red, run!" Blaze shouted.
As the swarm closed in, Red was clearly startled, bolting into the forest without regard for direction. Red sprinted straight ahead at full speed, knowing that if the murder hornets caught up, the consequences would be dire. Their venomous stings were lethal; even a few could spell death.
In the forest, Red moved like a fish in water, navigating the terrain with incredible speed and agility, deftly dodging obstacles as they raced forward.
In the blink of an eye, time seemed to blur, but once Blaze Regret was certain they had shaken off the relentless hornets, he reined in Red, bringing her to a halt.
After their harrowing escape, Red collapsed onto the ground, panting heavily from exhaustion.
"You've done well, Red!" Blaze Regret said, gently patting it head. He poured a bowl of water and spirit beast food, knowing he needed to restore it stamina as quickly as possible after such a perilous escape.
While Red drank, Blaze Regret began to survey their surroundings. Tall trees loomed above, with sunlight filtering through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the forest floor. In his haste, he had lost track of his exact location.
Wild Spirit Beasts generally fear humans and prefer the solitude of the wilderness. The more remote the area, the higher the concentration of wild Spirit Beasts, increasing the chances of encountering higher grade ones.
Of course, if he stumbled upon a low grade Spirit Beast of exceptional quality, Blaze Regret would capture it to sell later in Hiltan Town.
Once Red had recovered, Blaze Regret chose a direction that led deeper into the forest and continued his exploration.
