In the following days, Wang Xiao led the team on a forced march, stopping only to eat and rest, and spending the rest of the time traveling!
Along the way, they often encountered various magical beasts!
But under Wang Xiao's orders, they didn't engage with the magical beasts at all. They avoided them whenever possible, and if they couldn't avoid them, they used spirit蛊 to lure them away, and everyone continued on their way!
After a week of forced marching, Wang Xiao's little brothers were starting to reach their limit.
When they stopped to eat and rest again, the little brothers said one after another: "Boss, we've been rushing all the time, how much longer until we reach our destination? If this continues, we won't be able to hold on!"
Wang Xiao said: "Hold on for two more days, and we'll reach our destination in two days!"
"Two more days?"
The little brothers all wore mournful expressions!
Wang Xiao's face darkened: "Before we came in, I told you that as long as you follow me, you have to listen to my command!
I told you that there are very precious resources waiting for us ahead!
If you can't even endure this little bit of hardship, I advise you to go back as soon as possible! Anyway, the high-level magical beasts along the way have been cleared by the experts from Sky City, so the return journey isn't too dangerous!"
A group of little brothers quickly waved their hands: "No, no, no! We're not going back! Since we've followed you, Boss, of course we'll follow you to the end!"
Wang Xiao nodded: "In that case! Don't complain to me anymore. If I hear anyone grumbling again, I'll kick him out of the team and let him fend for himself in this world!"
"Boss, we won't dare to do it again!"
"Hurry up and eat, then rest. We'll continue on our way in half an hour!"
On the road ahead, the sound of complaining completely disappeared!
The team advanced for another day. When passing by a fiery valley, a little brother suddenly exclaimed: "Heavens! Look at the valley, it's full of fire绒grass!"
"Wow! It really is! So much fire绒grass!"
"Wahahaha, we're going to get rich! One fire绒grass is worth thousands of spirit stones, there must be tens of thousands of them here!"
"Charge, let's go collect it!"
A group of people rushed towards the valley!
Suddenly, a croaking sound rang in their ears, like thunder exploding beside them, stunning them and making them dizzy, and they all stood rooted to the spot!
Wang Xiao, standing in front, said with a cold face: "Did I allow you to collect it? You actually acted without permission. Do you even have me, the team leader, in your eyes!"
"But… Boss, there's a lot of fire绒grass here!"
Wang Xiao sneered: "Fire绒grass is nothing! Did I bring you here to collect fire绒grass? If it was just for this little bit, why would I bother bringing you so far? There are many things more valuable than fire绒grass along the way!"
A group of little brothers looked at each other in dismay!
In their opinion, the total value of the fire绒grass in this valley was tens of millions, which was simply a huge treasure!
However, their team leader, Wang Xiao, didn't seem to care at all!
Wang Xiao said in front: "Everyone, keep following me! I'll say it again, if anyone stops without my order and goes to collect resources privately! Then I will leave him here. I think the magical beasts in the Land of Flames will be happy to have a chat with him!"
After saying that, Wang Xiao continued to lead the way forward!
Although the little brothers were reluctant, they had no choice but to follow Wang Xiao.
Tao Jun asked in a low voice: "Wang Xiao, where are we going?"
Wang Xiao responded: "If we go forward for another day, there is a Scarlet Fire Mulberry Forest, where a large number of Fire Weaving Silkworms live, and there are also Flame Mushrooms produced in the forest…"
Fire Weaving Silkworms are a kind of fire-type spirit insect!
The silk spun by this spirit insect can be woven into silk with super fireproof properties. In short, it is expensive and much more valuable than fire绒grass!
However, compared to the Flame Mushrooms, the Fire Weaving Silkworms are nothing!
Flame Mushrooms are a high-end material for raising 蛊. Fire-type spirit 蛊 can promote evolution and improve quality by eating this stuff.
For example, a golden-quality fire-type spirit 蛊 has a certain chance of transforming into a Purple Jade Spirit 蛊 after eating Flame Mushrooms!
Therefore, the price of Flame Mushrooms can be said to be astronomical. The previous fire绒grass is simply garbage in front of Flame Mushrooms!
This time, even Tao Jun became excited!
Tao Jun came from one of the top ten wealthy families, and he generally didn't care about ordinary things.
But Flame Mushrooms are different. This is the most top-level resource.
As long as he can get a few, he can cultivate a fire-type Purple Jade Spirit 蛊, and his strength will increase exponentially. The attention and treatment he receives in the family will also undergo earth-shattering changes!
An hour later, Wang Xiao, who was leading the way, suddenly slammed on the brakes. He raised his hand: "Everyone, stop!"
Everyone stopped quickly, wondering what he was going to do!
Tao Jun asked: "Wang Xiao, what's wrong?"
Wang Xiao quickly said: "A powerful magical beast is coming, very powerful! Everyone, collect your spirit 蛊 and gather around me! Su Momo, use the wax statue insect to turn all of us into wax statues, covering up our life aura! Yan Ruoyun, use illusions to disguise us as stones!"
Hearing Wang Xiao's words, everyone didn't dare to neglect and followed his instructions!
Wang Xiao had the two Mountain Demon Bears shrink their bodies, and then released a khaki toad. The toad opened its mouth and swallowed the two Demon Bears.
This toad is Wang Xiao's Earth King Golden Toad!
Mountain Demon Bears are magical beasts, and their aura is difficult to restrain. In order to avoid attracting the attention of powerful magical beasts, Wang Xiao put them into the Earth King Golden Toad's dimensional space.
Soon, everyone collected their spirit 蛊 and gathered together!
Su Momo used the wax statue insect to spray out a mass of wax candle raw liquid, turning everyone into wax statues.
Inside the wax statues, all life characteristics were sealed inside.
Then Yan Ruoyun's Phoenix Tail Illusion Butterfly flew out, releasing rays of light and using illusions to turn the wax statues into stones.
In this way, if other creatures passed by here, they would see a pile of stones.
Everyone was in the wax statues, but it didn't prevent them from observing the outside world.
Several minutes passed, but the powerful magical beast that Wang Xiao mentioned still hadn't appeared.
Just as some people were getting impatient, a long roar suddenly came from a distance, and a chill rose in everyone's hearts. This was the murderous intent naturally emitted by a powerful creature to the outside world!
Immediately afterwards, a powerful pressure descended, and fear enveloped everyone's hearts!
Fortunately, this pressure was emitted unconsciously and was not directed at Wang Xiao and the others. Otherwise, this magical beast could drive people crazy with its pressure alone!
Many people had a question in their hearts: What exactly is this? What level of magical beast is it?
Level six?
Level seven?
Or level eight?
No one knew except Wang Xiao!
At this moment, Wang Xiao had already sent a message to someone through the Dream-Eating Worm: "1,600 kilometers northwest of the Land of Flames, an injured level eight magical beast 'Flame Flying Dragon' was discovered, and it is flying south…"
