Chapter 1032: Beasts Off
Beasts Off . . .
The twenty men behind Cha Xiao and Han Bingxue were all terrified. They were not as knowledgeable as Han Bingxue, but after all, they had come to the Mountain of All Medicines many times, which gave them essential knowledge about survival. They were not sure about the beasts' level, but they could tell from the sound that there were lots of beasts, at least a hundred!
According to their own experience, the beasts should all be in high levels, above level six.
A crowd of spiritual beasts that had such an overwhelming power was definitely not a bunch of Dream Origin Stage cultivators could handle.
Han Bingxue listened carefully and realized how bad it was. From the fierceness, he could feel many beasts beyond level eight. He had no idea exactly how many there were. He just knew that he was not able to handle this situation!
A few men of the Li Clan people, who were at the back of the group, still stood at the entrance. They heard the roar and got frightened, so they ran back to the second layer fast.
They got out of the door, yet those who were in the third layer couldn't get away anymore because the door was closed.
"As recorded in the history of Cha Clan, the door can only be opened two hours after it is closed." Cha Shangxin's voice seemed to be trembling. He was quite nervous as sweat permeated his hands.
"Prepare for a fights, guys. This is not going to go easy. Be careful!"
– Clang, clang… –
Sounds of weapons rang up.
People of Cha Clan stood in the shape of a triangle. Li Clan people seemed awkward. There should be ten of them, but the four of them at the back near the door fled away when they heard the sound of the beasts.
It was reasonable that they chose to save their own lives when the danger came, but their escape hurt the six men left inside the third layer.
The six of them were all pale on the faces!
"Traitors! Cowards! Disobedient!" Li Chongshan scolded angrily.
There was certainly anger in his voice, but there were also fear and regret. It seemed he was regretting it so much. [Why would I get so deep into this place… Now I can't go out no matter how much I want to.]
The beasts sounded closer and closer as a cold qi abruptly rose. It was Han Bingxue who was pouring his cold ice qi into his precious sword. His vigor greatly rose up as the spiritual qi rushed out from the sword. Apparently, he was ready to make the first move.
At this moment…
"Meow?" A weak voice of a cat suddenly sounded.
It was so abrupt. Everybody was quite tense and was surprised by the meow.
[Eh? How come there is a cat in such a dangerous place?]
[A cat wants to meow, then it meows. Since it can live in this place, it must have its own way to live. But it made a sound like this when we are feeling scared and frightened?]
[Fine. It meows. However, what does that help? That voice!]
[Scaring mouses?]
However, unexpectedly, after that meow, the wild roars stopped. It stopped all of a sudden, as if the beasts that were running over all stopped at the same time.
After that…
In the dense fog, a blasting shout sounded from the sky, "Ahh… oh?"
That sounded so overwhelming, as if it was the sound of the king of all animals. As the shout sounded, the fog in the entire place shook and rolled.
Cha Shangxin and his men heard the shout, and suddenly, their blood was like boiling in the veins. They couldn't stop staggering.
They were all stunned. [What level is this beast? That was just a shout. We actually couldn't handle it, even though we are all above level six of Dream Origin Stage?]
They all focused on the tremendous power of the shout but couldn't comprehend its meaning. Within that roar, there was a trembling quality.
It seemed as though the beast was inquiring about something?
It appeared to be frightened.
This was a terrified question from a lesser being to a superior one!
"Meow…" The cat's voice sounded once more.
– Puff, puff, puff, puff… –
– Boom, boom, boom… –
It appeared that several beasts had collapsed, and then the entire group of creatures descended into panic and chaos. After a while, numerous beasts began to flee.
They retreated in the direction they had originally arrived from, as if their lives depended on escaping swiftly. Something exceptionally powerful seemed to lie in the path they initially attempted to run from, as if they would meet their demise if they didn't vacate the area!
The formidable and savage atmosphere created by the group of powerful spiritual beasts suddenly dissipated.
The only thing left behind in the dense fog was the stench of urine…
It seemed that many of the beasts had urinated out of fear… or perhaps more than that…
This was a simultaneous front and back excretion!
After that, the multitude of beasts had vanished. They departed even more quickly than they had arrived. Evidently, the creatures were expending every ounce of their life force to flee, desperately attempting to escape this place!
It had only taken a few seconds, but it all ended in stillness. It was a truly shocking experience. The ten Cha Clan individuals and the six Li Clan individuals exchanged bewildered glances. Evidently, none of them comprehended precisely what had occurred.
However, they began to speculate from the lingering scent of urine left by the beast group… [Did a group of beasts come here... just to use this area as their toilet?]
[And then they simply departed?]
[Why is there such a strong odor if it isn't…]
[Why were they running so hastily... Was it the odor?]
[But... isn't this an absurd explanation?]
No matter how composed and resolute Cha Shangxin had been in the past, he was currently lost in confusion. He kept rubbing the back of his head as he said, "What... What is happening?"
Nobody provided him with an answer. They all stood in silence with their eyes wide open.
Even Han Bingxue was in a state of shock. He recognized the voice of a cat and knew it was Erhuo. He was aware that Erhuo was an extraordinary cat, but in his mind, it was merely a cat. He couldn't fathom the connection between a cat and a fleeing group of beasts in any way. He was perplexed as well!
"The danger has dissipated. Let's proceed swiftly. Standing here will not aid us," Cha Xiao's voice sounded indifferently. "This layer is exceptionally vast. Our visibility is restricted in this location. Let's disperse and seek the materials. I assume you possess certain methods to differentiate one herb from another even without sight... particularly some distinctive techniques to distinguish the Regeneration Ink Lotus from other plants…"
