Chapter 67 - 67: The Mysterious Trail Ground!
Robert grilled skewers for everyone after they entered the cave. He already has eaten that and has no plan of eating anymore
Just as he was grilling skewers for everyone on the east side at White Blaze Lake.
This region was overflowing with spiritual energy that produced a mist that blanketed the surrounding place. As shadows flicker inside the fog, this location seems otherworldly.
There was a shadow laying on the ground within the thick fog. It's a horse with a body covered in deep green feathers.
The horse, tragically, only has three legs because one of his hind legs is severed.
Although the wound is already healed his leg could not regrow. At this moment the horse was looking at his wounded leg with a bitter gaze and his face was hideous.
"Damn… That bastard dared to injure me, That crazy dog, what benefits that Taotie restaurant gave him that made him fight me so fiercely? And that idiot Leo said that Taotie restaurant only has one foundation realm master inside because of him I lost so much… That snake is a pervert batting against the three peak foundation realm. master at the same time…"
The horse is the Green feathered dragon-horse that attacked Taotie restaurant that day. After Valor chased and fought with him fiercely. In the end, he was frightened by Valor's crazy fighting tactic and escaped but he was still seriously injured.
He hated Valor and Taotie restaurant but he hated that stupid Leo the leopard more. If not for his wrong information he would not have landed in such a condition.
"Damn… And don't let me find that lord he mentioned. That idiot said he would join the battle in the middle but he never came…If I meet him then ...." The green feather dragon-horses said bitterly, his face filled with hatred.
"Then what? I am listening." Just as he was talking to himself he heard a calm and unhurried voice behind him. The green feathered dragon horse's body was chilled hearing this voice and his body stiffened.
He did not know when the person appeared behind him. Is it an enemy?
The horse gulped and looked back after some hesitation.
Behind him was a terrifying behemoth with a height of 50 meters. In front of him was just a child both of their aura and size are incomparable.
The behemoth is the hyena, the lord of Numb Skull peak. At this moment his aura was stronger than before and his size has increased as well.
His eyes were pure red like a precious gem but those eyes were like black holes sucking everything that looked into it.
The horse looked at it for a moment and almost lost his soul. He hurriedly withdrew his gaze and looked at the beast in front of him.
From the aura alone he knows that this is a Core formation realm beast.
'My God! How can my luck be so bad? Didn't they say that this place is a gathering place of weak beasts? How come there is a terrifying guy like him here?'
The horse thought to himself as he wanted to cry. These days he is super unlucky. At first, he lost his leg and now he is likely to lose his life.
'No… I don't want to die' The horse thought of himself as he gritted his teeth and stood up.
Then he looked at the hyena with a flattering expression and said, "Lord it's nothing, I am just talking nonsense."
No way he is no match for this person and he is not sure if he can escape under his perception. So pleasing this guy is the best thing he could do now. As long as there is an opportunity he will escape.
"Oh? Weren't you blaming me for not attacking along with you guys?" The lord Hyena looked at the horse with interest and there was a playful smile on his face.
The Horse's heart went cold after hearing him. Is he the lord that Leo mentioned….?
Thinking of this his completion changed several times and finally, he squeezed a smile and said with a pale face, "Lord I am wrong to blame you. To redeem me, I am willing to provide the lord with a treasure."
He knew his current situation and if he did not give him a satisfactory answer then he would die. That is why he did not say any nonsense but directly mentioned the treasure to redeem himself.
"Hm? Do you think I lack treasure? Why would I need a treasure from trash like you?" The hyena's face went cold after hearing him as killing intent emitted from his body. It seems that horse words displeased him so he is ready to end this farce and kill him.
"Wa-Wait Lord don't kill me! The treasure I am talking about is trail ground. It's a very precious one at that. I obtained a dragon bloodline from that place…." At first, the green feathered dragon horse was stalling for the right opportunity by telling about treasure. Now seeing his killing intent he directly vomited all the information.
He was to live if exchanging a treasure can help him live then he was more than willing to exchange it.
All of a sudden surrounding temperature dropped and he was enveloped by a murderous aura. He shivered and looked up and saw the hyena was looking at him with a hideous face unlike before his ey3s are completely black and a wisp of black air is emanating from his body.
"Are you telling the truth!?" The hyena looked at the green feathered dragon-horse with a severe face.
"Yes! I am telling the truth, my lord!" The horse's body twitched as he replied to the hyena in fear.
"Jié Jié Jié Jié if you are telling the truth then I will spare your life. Not only that, I will reward you by restoring your leg." The hyena laughed as he said this. He was very happy now, he didn't expect that he would find another mysterious trail ground.
Till now what he has achieved is due to the opportunity he found inside the mysterious trail ground.
Now looks like his strength will upgrade even further and he will most likely get a dragon bloodline.
After saying this he used the spiritual energy to wrap the horse and disappear from the place. There is no time to waste.
Not long after he left the lake surface that had always been calm fluctuated wildly. A two-meter head popped out of the lake. Two lantern-like golden eyes looked in the direction where the hyena left with glee.
"Hey, I do not expect to encounter an opportunity like this! He is happy but he doesn't know I will take the opportunity. Truly like the idiom mantis stalks the cicada hm? What comes next? … I forgot anyway I will be the one who will take this opportunity." A muffled old voice sounded near the lake and a shadow flashed and then disappeared and the lake was calm again.
After the creature inside the lake left. On one of the trees, a short silhouette emerged and said disdainfully, "Mantis stalks the Cicada, unaware of the oriole behind' Don't pretend if you are ignorant!"
After that, the silhouette flashed and flew into the dense jungle in the direction of Cloud Peak.
…..
Cloud Peak.
At this time inside the cave Slither and Celli, we're cultivating and only Robert is idle.
He looked at two who were refining their blood boringly while making more skewers for them. Both White Fang and Snowball have gone outside to play after having their stomach full.
Both of them were not cultivated because of their situation. White Fang is too strong that this second-grade spiritual food does not increase her cultivation. As for Snowball, his body is very weak he can't intake too much spiritual energy in one go otherwise he would be injured.
So only Slither and Celli are cultivating and they are at a critical period of breakthrough.
Celli cultivation is now at the sixth layer of the Foundation realm and now her aura is rising rapidly. It won't be long before she will enter seven lathe years of foundation realm.
Slither cultivation is at the second layer of the foundation realm and he is about to enter the third layer.
He is making skewers for them to provide food with more spiritual energy. After all, they are not like him who can cultivate with the help of plugins.
They need to invest time to upgrade their cultivation. Unlike him who's cultivation van increases while he is asleep.
As he was bored he opened the system panel. Everything was the same as before. Just his cultivation has increased.
Since he has nothing to do he opened ten Universal Stores. He did not have a hope to get anything because it's been a long time since something good appeared here.
After opening the store he noticed that the first two things were useless as always. One is a palm-size mysterious wood and the other is a knife.
He curiously opened the description of the mysterious wood and his mouth twitched in annoyance.
Item: Mysterious wood.
Grade: Unknown.
Description: A piece of mysterious wood.
Price: 10,000 Energy points.
Is the system taking me as a fool? How dare it scam me again?
Robert thought disdainfully as he felt that the system was playing another joke on him. In the past month, there were many items similar to this but with no exceptions everything was useless.
Be has already learned the lesson and would not dare to purchase this unknown stuff.
Robert scoffed as he ignored the item and his gaze moved downward. There is a knife that is useless to him because he already has one but White Fang wanted one so it's good to purchase one for her.
-50 Energy points.
After getting the knife he looked at the last item and was stunned.
It's a skill that costs 20,000 Energy points! And this skill is very useful to him. He decided to take this skill after reading its description.
Just as he decided to purchase the skill there was a burst of noise outside and White Fang rushed inside the cave in a hurry.
"Robert! Robert! When we were digging the ground for fun we discovered a Trail Ground!"
