Yang Zhen was certain that he had never heard such a loud roar before; it was deafening and filled with endless ferocity.
Could there be some kind of creature on this road, or perhaps Demon Beast?
Yang Zhen dared not be careless and walked forward, carefully observing his surroundings. No matter how strong he was, he had to be cautious. This was Yang Zhen Yang Zhen's consistent style. There were countless examples of people who had been caught off guard and had no intention of becoming a negative example.
Before long, Yang Zhen was stunned. A group of golden, ferocious beasts were roaring and howling not far ahead. When they suddenly saw Yang Zhen, they all paused for a moment. There were more than a hundred beasts. They all turned their heads and stared at Yang Zhen, not recognizing each other.
These ferocious beasts came in all shapes and sizes, yet they seemed to live in groups and did not conflict with each other. There was even a rat-like beast lying on the belly of a cat-like beast, basking in the sun. However, both the rat and the cat were quite large, about the size of a small calf.
To Yang Zhen's surprise and dismay, the power fluctuations emanating from these ferocious beasts were all extremely terrifying. After a quick glance, Yang Zhen realized that most of them were at the Void Refinement Realm, and there were even more than a dozen at the Spirit Wandering Realm, staring at Yang Zhen with wide eyes and curious expressions.
roar--!
A deafening roar rang out, and hundreds of ferocious beasts charged towards Yang Zhen. The thunderous footsteps shook the ground, making it undulate and rumble.
Seeing this, Yang Zhen's eyes flashed with a dazzling golden light. He roared, his eyes narrowed, and power surged through his body... He took off running!
What a joke! These things can survive in the Spirit Road, and they're all golden and dazzling, plus they're powerful enough to be at the Void Refinement Realm and Spirit Wandering Realm. Yang Zhen would be crazy to risk his life against these things.
At the same cultivation level, ferocious beasts are inherently stronger than human cultivators. In other words, for an ordinary Void Refinement Realm ferocious beast, killing an ordinary Void Refinement Realm human cultivator is as easy as a cat catching a mouse.
With so many Void Refinement Realm ferocious beasts eyeing them covetously, charging at them as if Yang Zhen had stewed their children, and mixed in with a dozen or so Spirit Wandering Realm cultivators, it would be truly foolish for Yang Zhen not to run away under such circumstances.
Rumble!
Yang Zhen's footsteps barely touched the ground before the clouds beneath his feet flashed, his speed as fast as lightning.
Phew--!
A piercing, earth-shattering cry rang out, and Yang Zhen suddenly felt an aura of world-destroying power coming from above. Startled, he looked up and saw several large, Void Refinement Realm birds that had appeared in mid-air. Their eyes looked as if Yang Zhen's flesh was delicious.
Yang Zhen was so angry he wanted to curse. Everyone said that the Spirit Road was a place where nine out of ten people died, and he didn't really believe it at first. Now, he had just entered and was facing this deadly situation. How did those guys who rushed to the Spirit Peak manage to get through?
Yang Zhen, who had mastered the Soaring Through the Void Movement Method, was incredibly fast when he used the Traversing the Void in Midair Tathagata Cloud-Dispelling Palm. However, no matter how fast he was, he couldn't outrun the large birds. Four or five large birds swooped down, their cries echoing throughout the universe, and pecked at Yang Zhen.
Seeing its golden, hooked beak, Yang Zhen had no doubt that even if he had mastered the First Dragon-Elephant, this thing could still peck him until his head bled.
Oh shit!
Seeing that there was nowhere to escape, Yang Zhen became furious.
I'm always the one Sage of Saunter; when did it become your turn to be so arrogant?
As the large bird swooped down, Yang Zhen's eyes widened, and he roared fiercely at the bird, his voice deafening and powerful, like a dragon or an elephant.
The four or five large birds were clearly taken aback by Yang Zhen's Yang Zhen cry, leaving them completely bewildered.
Yang Zhen laughed heartily, "Who's afraid of who's loudest?"
Instead of retreating, Yang Zhen leaped forward and unleashed a powerful punch at one of the large birds. Even if he couldn't kill it, he would blast it away, leaving it unable to find its way home for a long time!
boom--!
Caught off guard, one of the large birds was punched right through by Yang Zhen's fist, letting out a mournful cry before dying instantly.
Did you pierce through it?
Yang Zhen was stunned, staring in disbelief at the large bird still hanging on his arm.
"So easily defeated?" Yang Zhen's expression was strange, and he didn't react for a moment.
The ferocious beasts are known for their incredible physical strength. Let alone a battle between equals, even a human expert in the Spirit Wandering Realm would find it unlikely to punch through a ferocious beast in the Void Refinement Realm.
Although Yang Zhen can kill Spirit Wandering Realm expert with one punch, he definitely cannot kill a Void Refinement Realm ferocious beast with one punch... he might need two punches!
Now, he had actually punched through a Void Refinement Realm ferocious beast and killed it. How could Yang Zhen not be astonished?
However, what happened next left Yang Zhen even more bewildered.
The ferocious beast that Yang Zhen killed with a single punch suddenly exploded with a "pop," transforming into countless golden rays that then coalesced into a small, glittering golden ball, about the size of a thumb, which landed in Yang Zhen's hand.
Yang Zhen stared blankly at the small golden ball in his hand, muttering to himself, "This isn't a real ferocious beast, but... it actually dropped equipment?"
Next, Yang Zhen completely transformed into a ferocious beast-slaying maniac.
Yang Zhen quickly slaughtered all the hundreds of ferocious beasts and collected hundreds of small golden orbs, a dozen of which had a silver Yun Duo on them, formed by the dozen or so ferocious beasts at the Spirit Wandering Realm.
Although Yang Zhen didn't know what this thing was for, it was clearly no ordinary item, so he quickly put it away close to his body.
He had already tried biting into it before, and apart from almost breaking his teeth, he didn't feel anything special. It was very hard and probably inedible.
Just as Yang Zhen was searching everywhere for those ferocious beasts and feeling that he didn't have enough to kill, a familiar ghostly wailing came from the sky.
"Damn it, I told you to stop chasing me, didn't you hear me?" The Shameless Cat's voice was filled with exasperation. "Still chasing me, huh? Believe me or not, I'll kill you all with one punch each!"
Yang Zhen looked in the direction of the Shameless Cat and immediately burst into laughter, her eyes sparkling with delight as she rushed towards Shameless Cat.
Behind the Shameless Cat, there were actually two hundred or so ferocious beasts, rushing towards them like a golden torrent.
The Shameless Cat running ahead howled incessantly, but a smug expression lingered on its face, as if it were something to be proud of that these ferocious beasts couldn't catch it.
Upon seeing Yang Zhen, the smug expression on the Shameless Cat's face instantly turned into panic. It charged towards Yang Zhen, yelling, "Help! Kid, help! Run! There are so many ferocious beasts here!"
Yang Zhen curled his lip, staring at the Shameless Cat with a strange look. This bastard's face was getting more and more expressive, a complete drama queen. Damn it, I'll have to be careful in the future. This panicked and scared-to-death expression looks so lifelike. If Yang Zhen hadn't seen this bastard earlier, he would have almost believed its evil.
" Shameless Cat!" Yang Zhen cursed inwardly, but on the surface, he put on a righteous and indignant expression and shouted, "I'm here to save you!"
The Shameless Cat was taken aback by what it heard and looked at Yang Zhen suspiciously. Before it knew it, it was bitten on the mouth by a dog behind it.
"Holy crap!" The Shameless Cat leaped three feet high, dragging the dog into the air. "Quick, quick, quick, I'm injured!"
boom--!
Yang Zhen unleashed his power, charging into the horde of ferocious beasts, killing them almost one with a single punch, killing them with unbridled abandon.
The Shameless Cat, dragging a dog along its tail, stared at Yang Zhen in disbelief. "Damn it, when did you become so fierce?"
