Five Finger Peak Lotus Pond

In the Beast Wilderness, wild beasts are quite few in number, and even fewer will actively attack.

Of course, those that take the initiative to attack are all mutated beasts that are confident in their own strength and have a Berserk temperament.

Bai Xiaowen walked for another hour, covering more than ten kilometers, and only encountered two Thickback Rhino, both Elite Tier individuals. Moreover, they showed no intention of attacking and kept their distance.

With the speed they move thanks to their thick, long legs, Bai Xiaowen would have a hard time catching up.

"That's strange. I clearly recalled all the other summoned creatures, so why are these monsters still so timid and afraid to attack?" Bai Xiaowen, riding on the back of the Rageclaw, felt a little strange, but he didn't care and continued to advance towards the Dragonbreak Cliff in the center of the treasure land.

After walking for a while, the ground ahead suddenly began to tremble slightly. Gradually, the tremors became stronger and stronger, as if a group of large monsters were walking in formation.

"Could this be the overlord race of the Beast Wilderness mentioned in the documents...?"

Bai Xiaowen retracted his Rageclaw and crouched down under a low tree. The lush grass around him concealed his figure.

Step, step...

Many chaotic and heavy footsteps sounded, the Earthquake, and a herd of elephants appeared from afar, strolling leisurely across the open field in front of Bai Xiaowen.

This herd consists of more than ten woolly elephants, including two calves. Even the calves are larger than Rageclaw, and the other adult elephants are larger than Thickback Rhino. Their tub-sized hooves cause slight tremors every time they land.

The leading elephant was as tall as a three-story building, and looked like a majestic mountain.

Bai Xiaowen was terrified. He didn't need to use his Insight; he could roughly guess the strength of this elephant herd simply from the faint sense of the Psychic Field.

The weakest baby elephant, Elite Tier.

Adult elephants, unless they are sick or weak, are all Leader Tier.

And the leading giant elephant was definitely Lord Tier creature!

"Fortunately, the information included a warning, so I hid in advance. Although this Beast Wilderness is on the outskirts of the Great Rift Valley Treasure Land, the presence of this Mammoth Herd makes it no less dangerous than the depths of the rift valley."

Bai Xiaowen also understood why the Thickback Rhino was so timid. Living in the territory of such a group of giants, if you weren't obedient, you wouldn't survive long.

Bai Xiaowen waited quietly for the elephant herd to pass by. He had no intention of attacking the herd; that would be suicide.

Only after the elephant herd had gone far away did Bai Xiaowen breathe a sigh of relief. He then circled around in the opposite direction from the herd, and only continued forward after he had created enough distance between himself and the herd.

After leaving the elephant herd's territory, Bai Xiaowen encountered a few Wasteland Wolf on his journey. During the fight, he also attracted a Mutated Golden-Scaled Leopard lurking in the shadows.

The Wasteland Wolf was just Standard Template monster, while the Golden Leopard was an Elite Tier monster. However, its level was low, only level 4, and it was quickly lured out by Bai Xiaowen, who then summoned a swarm of creatures to overwhelm and beat it to death.

The Golden Leopard did not drop a treasure chest after it died; it only gave 400 Psionic Points.

Bai Xiaowen found a piece of Treasure Meat from the Golden Leopard's carcass. After eating it, he didn't gain any attribute bonus, but instead received a temporary "Agility +3" buff that lasted for 4 hours, which was not bad.

The enhancement effect granted by this Treasure Meat food is not stackable. Within 4 hours, consuming Treasure Meat will not grant new enhancements unless the old enhancement effect is replaced.

In addition, some spiritual herbs also grew in the Beast Wilderness, all of which Bai Xiaowen picked.

"Judging by the time, six or seven hours have passed. The energy intensity of the Spatial Rift should have reached level 4, and a new batch of awakened individuals has entered."

Bai Xiaowen gradually walked to the end of the Beast Wilderness. On the horizon ahead, several mountain peaks of varying heights appeared vaguely, looking like the fingers of a giant.

"Five Finger Peak."

Bai Xiaowen mentally flipped through the map of the Treasure Ground Space and finally determined his exact location.

"The information says there's Lotus Pond at the foot of Five Finger Peak where you can pick ' Green Lotus Seed.' These are essential items for Awakened Ones!"

Bai Xiaowen quickened her pace.

"Looking at a mountain makes a horse run itself to death." Although the Five Finger Peak was not far away, it took Bai Xiaowen Bai Xiaowen nearly an hour to reach the foot of the mountain. Then it took him another half hour to find the water source and follow the water flow to find the Lotus Pond.

Beside the Lotus Pond stood two Awakened Ones and the corpse of a Blue-Patterned Python. A faint stench of blood wafted through the air.

Bai Xiaowen glanced at the two awakened individuals and realized he didn't recognize them; they weren't from Jinghai University.

"Bai Xiaowen?"

Surprisingly, the two recognized Bai Xiaowen. But thinking about it, it made sense. Bai Xiaowen's current global World Fame was at C-Tier, and at one point even reached B-Tier. Moreover, as the new captain of Jinghai University Team and a Hero Class, students from other universities in the Jianghai Division must all have a copy of his information.

Bai Xiaowen smiled and nodded slightly, "How should I address you two? Which school do you go to?"

"My name is Zhou Ze, and his name is Wang Kai. We are both from Tongjiang University," said one of the tall, thin boys.

The tall, thin boy's expression held a hint of hostility as he said, "We were here first, and we even killed a Green-Striped Python. You just come in and take what's already there, how easy for you."

Bai Xiaowen laughed and said, "The rules of this Treasure Ground Space don't follow the order of arrival. It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Even without you, do you think I can't handle a mere Green-Striped Python?"

Wang Kai, standing to the side, tugged at Zhou Ze's sleeve, a helpless expression on his face, and said to Bai Xiaowen, "Since you're Hero Class, you can pick them first. Hopefully, you can leave some for the two of us."

Bai Xiaowen looked at the Lotus Pond.

The water was murky, and amidst the lotus leaves, lotus pods swayed in the breeze, seemingly nodding in greeting.

The Lotus Pond wasn't large; there were only seven or eight lotus pods.

Bai Xiaowen raised his hand and summoned all the summoned creatures.

Zhou Ze and Wang Kai immediately tensed up. Wang Kai said, "What are you doing? It's just picking a few lotus pods, is it really necessary to make such a fuss?"

"Do you two think I'm easy to fool?"

Bai Xiaowen chuckled, "There are Mutated Blackfish inhabiting this Lotus Pond; the water is their domain. If I were to go into the water myself, I would definitely be besieged by these mutated fish. This will attract their attention, allowing you to easily pick the lotus seeds."

The Lotus Pond blackfish is one of the danger factors listed in the data booklet. It's a bit presumptuous for that boy named Wang Kai to use this to scheme against Bai Xiaowen.
