Carefree Path of Dreams

Chapter 1029: Solo Kill

“Hehe... who would have thought that a trip would have such a harvest!”

Outside the youth’s battlefield, a pair of long and narrow eyes glowing in green blinked delightfully. “Three-tailed spiritual fox, that horned dragon totem, jade rabbit... are all pretty decent. Since the king wants to refine a ‘Ten Thousand Beast Banner’, bringing these back will make the perfect materials!”

At the thought of this, he immediately acted. A dark green fog surged toward the battlefield.

“Hmm?” Fang Yuan caught this with the corner of his eye, so he turned and ran.

“Bold!” A thunderous voice resounded!

The lightning beast roared, and lightning danced, breaking through the fog.

Brutal Arrow and Brutal Thunder finally came out to help when they saw these youths were about to be obliterated. “Fey, why are you here? How dare you act against our Flybarb tribe?”

“Keke...” A human figure gradually appeared from the fog.

Although most of his body was human, he had a weasel’s head, looking pretty horrifying. “I serve His Majesty King Pengze, and my king wants to refine the Ten Thousand Beast Banner. The people from your tribe seem decent, so quickly offer me some, and I’ll forgive you for your offense just now!”

“No way!” Brutal Thunder and Brutal Arrow looked ice-cold.

“King Pengze?” Fang Yuan ran a bit before turning around to listen to their conversation. “That Great Fey in Pengze?”

Within the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there were not only barbarian tribes but also a variety of dangerous places and even Fey!

Pengze was a massive swamp lake, and rumor had it that ‘Great Fey Pengze’, who loved eating the hearts of young children, lived there. He was always used by parents to scare their children.

Additionally, Great Fey Pengze had many Fey under him. Together, they were definitely formidable and sufficient to match up to the biggest tribes within the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

“We are under the protection of the Beichen tribe and have already offered this year’s tribute. Are you trying to stir up conflicts between the two sides?” Brutal Arrow shouted.

“Do you really think I care...”

The weasel roared as he charged forward.

A half-human Fey like him was strong even in this form, comparable to the barbarian’s Materialization realm.

“Damn it!” Brutal Thunder wielded his saber and charged forward as battle tattoos covered his body. “Splashing Wind!”

Swoosh!

Saber light flashed, and the lightning beast in the air roared even more ferociously. A thunderbolt landed on the blade. “Kill!”

This Fey cried out as he revealed his actual body, and a cattle-sized weasel extended his sharp claws.

Clang!

The saber and claws clashed, and both parties took a few steps back.

“How dare you...” The weasel raged when he saw a small cut on his paw.

Poof!

Suddenly, a sharp arrow arrived in a flash, striking the ground right in front of him.

“Get out of our sights, or we’ll join forces to kill you right here!” Brutal Arrow threatened while holding a bone longbow.

“Good! Very good! I’ll remember this!”

The weasel was smart and knew that he might really die against these two if he continued. He instantly turned into dark green fog and disappeared into the jungle.

“Phew... So risky!” Brutal Arrow put down the bow and arrow in his hands and looked at Brutal Thunder with a smile. “If it wasn’t for Instructor, I fear we might have suffered severe consequences today!”

If not for the appearance of a third-grade totem, Brutal Thunder would not have revealed himself as a nanny.

Without him, Brutal Arrow was not a match for that weasel at all.

“All right. Come here!” Brutal Thunder called.

“Instructor!” Dark, Moon, Fang Yuan, and the others walked over.

“Although that Fey left, we can’t be sure that he won’t come back. It’s very dangerous here. Dark, Youjie, Qi, and Fang Yuan, follow me back to the tribe since you’ve completed the test.”

Brutal Thunder looked around. “As for the others, continue the test. You can only return once you’ve reached the mid-stage!”

“Teacher, that three-tailed spiritual fox!” Dark was reluctant to give it up.

“Tsk! Didn’t you say something about might makes right? Since you lost to Fang Yuan, the three-tailed spiritual fox belongs to him!” Brutal Thunder snorted, thinking that giving Dark a setback now might be greatly beneficial to his future growth.

“Uh... that three-tailed spiritual fox escaped long ago!”

Fang Yuan walked up to the trap and shrugged his shoulders helplessly. “Instructor Brutal Thunder, I want to stay here for a while longer!”

“Oh? Why?” Brutal Thunder narrowed his eyes.

Fang Yuan smiled and said, “I promised Moon that I would help her reach the mid-stage.”

In reality, he could not bear to let this mutated beast go.

The most dangerous place was the safest place. Even that weasel would not think that he would stay in this place, right?

Moreover, the other party’s target was clearly a genius like Dark and would not be interested in an ordinary totem.

“Up to you!” Brutal Thunder nodded and then disappeared with Dark and the rest into the jungle.

In his eyes, Fang Yuan merely had a ninth-grade totem and was just slightly more skillful at martial arts. He was not of too much value.

If he could be of help to Moon, that would be even better.

“Spread out and continue hunting!” Brutal Arrow carried his bow and disappeared into the darkness. A voice echoed in their ears. “According to the tribe rules, I won’t step in even if you die!”

After the other youths left, Fang Yuan turned to Moon. “Moon, wait for me by the river!”

“What are you going to do?” Moon shivered.

“Of course... try again!” Fang Yuan’s eyes flashed with cold light. “So? Do you want to accompany me into the cave?”

“Hmm, forget it! I’ll only be a burden!”

At the thought of the illusion earlier, Moon shook her head with a lingering fear.

...

“Peace at last!”

Fang Yuan was very satisfied when he saw Moon’s disappearing figure.

After all, Brutal Arrow was certainly going to watch over Moon and would not stay around to watch over a ninth-grade trash like him.

Now, he was by himself.

After some thought, he held his saber and entered the cave.

“The three-tailed spiritual fox is merely adept at illusions. Its physical attacks aren’t much better than ordinary wild beasts. It just so happens that I restrain it!

“And... regardless of how timid it is, it’d be surprising if it didn’t attack me when it sees that I’ve entered alone!”

...

Fang Yuan sneered as he walked through the cave while holding a torch. He wanted to use himself as bait to lure and kill the three-tailed spiritual fox.

After all, how knew how long he would have to wait to find another mutated beast that matched his totem and that he restrained.

“According to my inference, it’s best for a totem to absorb bloodlines and spirit essences with a common origin. Previously, the fish I absorbed were all of the water element, so the three-tailed spiritual fox’s illusion and psyche attributes are exactly what I need to form a complementary balance!”

Fang Yuan thought silently, and after a while, he arrived at a cave.

“Eh? Why is there such a giant cave inside this mountain?”

He rubbed the rock wall and was slightly surprised. “Seeing how smooth it is, it seems like it isn’t natural?”

Not only that, but there was also a stone above the rock wall emitting fluorescence that lit up the entire place.

There was a slight foul smell in the air, and Fang Yuan realized that the three-tailed spiritual fox must have stayed here for quite some time.

“Fang Yuan, die!”

Suddenly, Dark emerged from the darkness, and the horned dragon materialized, baring fangs and brandishing claws.

“You’re finally here!” A sneer appeared on Fang Yuan’s face as his battle tattoos appeared, and fog spread.

“You...” Dark was shocked as his body blurred and transformed into Moon. “S-save me please!”

Poof!

The next moment, Fang Yuan swung his saber and beheaded Moon.

“Not a single drop of blood! What a poor illusion.” Fang Yuan shook his head. “Illusion, break!”

Behind him, the clam totem spat out fog as though it were breaking a barrier.

A sharp voice sounded, and the three-tailed spiritual fox appeared in front of him.

However, this mutated beast moved forward instead of retreating, and its claws were already almost touching Fang Yuan’s eyes.

Fang Yuan retreated violently and chopped with his blade. “Splashing Wind!”

He used nearly all of his strength on this single strike, making it incredibly fast as it landed right on the three-tailed spiritual fox’s head.

Poof!

Blood splattered everywhere as the fox’s corpse fell to the ground.

“Ha!”

He sat cross-legged and immediately began absorbing the spirit essence.

The cave regained its original tranquility, and only the light emitted from the stone continued flickering.

After some time, Fang Yuan opened his eyes. “I’m only one step away from the late stage? Moreover...”

As soon as his thoughts moved, clouds and fog converged into the figures of Brutal Thunder, Brutal Arrow, and that weasel.

Presently, their appearance, expressions, and even the pressure they emitted were remarkably lifelike, and it was difficult to tell whether they were genuine or fake.

“After absorbing the three-tailed spiritual fox’s bloodline and spirit essence, there is indeed a huge increase in the illusion ability of the clam totem!”

Fang Yuan wielded his saber and started skinning the three-tailed spiritual fox. After all, its fur was worth a lot back at the tribe.

“Huh? What is this?

Moments later, he dug out a grey, blood-stained item from the fox.

“This looks like... a stone talisman?”

After cleaning it and looking at the runes on it, Fang Yuan’s eyes lit up. “Great! The person who carved the inscription on this talisman is definitely not weak. This can serve as a guide for me!

“But it seems as though there are other meanings within these runes!”

His fingers gently stroked the runes. “Why was this inside the fox? And what do these runes represent?”

After a slight analysis of this, he suddenly had a realization. “This should be something like a magic artifact? According to the customs of the barbarians, blood is required to see the effects!

“I have no idea where the Abominable Lord is in this world and what kind of opportunities he’s managed to grasp. I have to try harder to catch up, and I can’t afford to waste any time!”

At the thought of this, he no longer hesitated and bit his finger. A drop of blood fell onto the stone talisman.

Bloop!

It was weird to say that the drop of blood fell onto the stone talisman since the talisman absorbed it like a sponge, and it disappeared without a trace.

“This is...”

A message transmitted to him, causing a change in Fang Yuan’s expression.

The next second, a radiance flashed, and his figure disappeared.
