Over the next few days, Lu Yuan and Ye Qingyue continued searching for ferocious beasts, killing them and collecting their beast cores.
Another five days passed.
Here were the beast cores Lu Yuan and Ye Qingyue had collected between them:
One beast core from a lower-rank ninth-order ferocious beast, four from upper-rank eighth-order ferocious beasts, three from middle-rank eighth-order ferocious beasts, ten from lower-rank eighth-order ferocious beasts, and several from seventh-order ferocious beasts.

The ferocious beast density here was far too low—so low it was downright outrageous.
He'd visited many Underground Worlds, but he'd never encountered anything like this in any of the others.
But then!
Lu Yuan's eyes lit up!
There seemed to be a ferocious beast about a hundred kilometers to the southeast.
His Spiritual Power had picked up a faint response.
And judging by the signal, the beast wasn't weak. It was middle-rank eighth-order.
"Sister Yue, something's up."
Lu Yuan sent Ye Qingyue a telepathic message with his
