The Douluo Continent.

The core region of the Star Dou Great Forest.

At this moment, they saw the corpses of the Dragon-Horned Elephant, Kui Beast, Two-Headed Fire Rhinoceros, and numerous other Ferocious Beasts that had been brought back in the sky screen.

Even Ferocious Beasts like Di Tian, Xiong Jun, and the Scarlet King could not help but feel a powerful pressure and baleful presence. The bloodlines within them seemed to be suppressed.

For a moment, their eyes widened, and they all drew sharp breaths.

"What kind of Ferocious Beasts are those?!"

"They're only prey, so why do the pressure and baleful presence coming from every one of their corpses feel so oppressive?!"

"I'm a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear!"

"How come I feel like a bear cub in front of the Ferocious Beasts of that world?!"

Xiong Jun clutched his head with both bear paws, practically on the verge of tears.

Xiong Jun had always considered himself one of the most powerful Ferocious Beasts in the world!

Because of that, he had never let go of his pride, even before Di Tian.

But this time, he discovered that, in the sky screen,

the pressure and baleful presence coming from each of the slain beasts were enough to make him feel oppressed and afraid.

It was enough to make Xiong Jun break down.

At last, he understood what it meant: beyond men were greater men, and beyond beasts were greater beasts!

And as the entire Douluo Continent was shaken by the prey Stone Village had brought back this time,

The sky-screen world.

In response to an elder's question,

Shi Linhu laughed heartily and said,

"We were really lucky this time!"

"Maybe it's because a lot of truly powerful Primordial Remnants have passed through the nearby mountains lately. They trampled quite a few Ferocious Beasts to death or left them injured."

"So quite a few of the Ferocious Beasts we encountered on the way were badly injured."

"In the past, whenever we encountered Dragon-Horned Elephants, Kui Beasts, Two-Headed Fire Rhinos, or Mixed-Blood Pixiu, we had to steer well clear of them."

"But this time, because they were badly injured, we joined forces and hunted them down easily."

"That's why we came back with such a full haul this time, and not one of us was hurt!"

"Uncle Lin Hu! Uncle Lin Hu!"

"We keep hearing that powerful Primordial Remnants have been passing by our village, making the earth quake and the mountains shake at night."

"Did you see any traces of those powerful Primordial Remnants on the way?"

After listening to Shi Linhu,

a group of children around him, including Snot-Nosed Child and Skinny Monkey, all started asking questions at once, their eyes full of curiosity.

Shi Linhu hid nothing from them and spoke with wonder and emotion.

"Traces of those truly powerful Primordial Remnants?"

"We did see some on the way!"

"They were enormous footprints, very much like human footprints, but each one was a hundred meters long!"

"What?! Footprints a hundred meters long?!"

Gasps of astonishment instantly rang out from the crowd.

Hearing this, Shi Yan lowered his head, a thoughtful look on his handsome little face.

Those hundred-meter footprints should belong to Zhu Yan!

Zhu Yan is probably fighting the Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow, Qiongqi, and the Vermilion Bird for the Mountain Treasure right now.

In the end, Zhu Yan did snatch the Mountain Treasure.

But he was attacked on all sides and, in the end, could only disperse his true body to save his life. He became Hairy Ball and was picked up by Little One in the future.

If I can pick Hairy Ball up sooner,

I wonder if I can copy abilities like his Seventy-Two Transformations and Three Heads and Six Arms!

At the thought, Shi Yan rubbed his hands together, a trace of eagerness flashing in his eyes.

The Douluo Continent.

"What?! A single footprint was a hundred meters long?!"

When they heard Shi Linhu's words in the sky screen,

countless people were stunned, finding it simply impossible to imagine.

If a single footprint was a hundred meters long, wouldn't the creature it belonged to be a thousand zhang in length?!

A sky-pillar giant beast like that could probably destroy a city with ease!

Inside the imperial palace in Star Luo Imperial City.

"Gulp!"

Dai Tianfeng's face was also filled with shock as he swallowed with difficulty, his heart full of relief.

"That sky-screen world is far too dangerous. Giant beasts that enormous actually exist there!"

"In such a dangerous world, I wonder whether there are any human experts who can stand up to giant beasts like that."

"If not, I don't know how the humans in that world can survive."

"Could they all be living in primitive tribes like Stone Village?"

"Fortunately, we don't have Soul Beasts that enormous on the Douluo Continent."

"Otherwise, this world would probably still belong to the Soul Beasts."

The Far North.

"A single footprint a hundred meters long?"

Seeing this, the Titan Snow Demon King also sucked in a sharp breath and said blankly,

"I'm only a little over a hundred meters tall!"

"Wouldn't the creature that made that footprint in the sky-screen world be able to crush me to death with one step?"

"That's terrifying!"

"Against a being like that, even those legendary gods would probably be crushed to death with one step, wouldn't they?!"

The sky-screen world.

Their full haul from the hunt had filled the whole of Stone Village with laughter and joy.

Village chief Shi Yunfeng led everyone in carrying the corpses of dozens of Ferocious Beasts straight to the sacrificial altar at the entrance to the village, where they laid them down.

The entire village knelt respectfully before the altar, thanking the great Sacrificial Spirit for protecting Stone Village and blessing them with a bountiful hunt.

After the sacrifice, however,

the Ferocious Beast corpses were still butchered into meat and added to the village's food reserves.

That evening, after dinner,

eight large bronze cauldrons had been set out on the grass in the center of the village. Fierce flames burned beneath them, and the water inside bubbled and gurgled.

Several elders stood beside the medicinal cauldrons, occasionally tossing in herbs and fist-sized centipedes and spiders.

Soon, the water inside turned as black as ink.

Nearby, Qian Renxue sat beside a bonfire. Watching the scene, she could not help feeling a little afraid and asked,

"Shi Yan, what are those grandpas doing?"

"Are they making medicinal soup?"

Shi Yan shook his head and said,

"Medicinal soup? Yes and no!"

"I suppose it does count as medicinal soup."

"But it's not for drinking. It's for our medicinal baths!"

At that moment, an elder shouted,

"Children, come take your medicinal baths!"

"Just take a dip, and you're guaranteed a good night's sleep. Afterward, your bodies will be stronger than young Ferocious Beasts!"

"Ah! No!"

When they learned they had to take medicinal baths, the children screamed in fright and scattered in all directions.

But in the end, their parents caught them and brought them all back.

"Xiao Yan!"

Not far away, Shi Yunfeng called out to Shi Yan.

Another large bronze cauldron stood beside Shi Yunfeng, filled with medicinal liquid as black as ink.

Shi Linhu stood beside it, with all sorts of bones laid out at his feet.

Among them were a Dragon-Horned Elephant's dragon horn, a Kui Beast's single leg bone, and a Mixed-Blood Pixiu's horn.

Shi Linhu was crushing the bones one after another and throwing them into the medicinal liquid.

"Coming!"

Hearing Shi Yunfeng call him, Shi Yan stood up and walked over.

Qian Renxue followed him curiously.

"Xiao Yan, these are what the village brought back from the hunt this time."

"Didn't you say you were almost ready to break through to the Cave Heaven Realm, and that all you lacked was the final push?"

"This time, Lin Hu and the others hunted down so many mixed-blood Primordial Remnants. A medicinal bath made with their precious bones and true blood should help you take that final step!"

Shi Yunfeng spoke as he looked at Shi Yan.
