CHAPTER 336: CHAPTER 208: SAINT ALARMED, THE TIME IS APPROACHING (4700 WORDS)_3

"There’s a Crystal Core!"

"We’ll divide the loot later! Let’s take out the rest first!"

"..."

The talents brimmed with enthusiasm, unanimously setting their sights on the next target and swarming it.

They repeated the one-sided slaughter.

"I never imagined that hunting Void Beasts could be this easy..."

From above, Chu You watched the scene below, her beautiful eyes filled with emotion. She had witnessed similar scenes many times on their journey, but it was still hard to fully believe.

"Everything has a pattern. I just observed a little more closely than others," Wang Xiu said with a modest smile.

Upon hearing this, Chu You’s mouth twitched, and she shot him a reproachful look.

Isn’t that kind of talk just demoralizing?

The Void Ancient Path had existed for eons. Over millennia, countless talents had entered it to battle Void Beasts. It wasn’t that no one had guessed that Void Beasts had fatal flaws in their physical structure. The problem was that every Void Beast was structured differently. There were no universal patterns, and even the most powerful talents could hardly summarize any useful principles during the brief time the Void Ancient Path was open.

The next group of talents to enter would have to start from scratch all over again.

Yet, Wang Xiu seemed to possess a divine eye, easily discerning the fatal weaknesses of each and every Void Beast.

The talents followed Wang Xiu’s directions.

The efficiency with which they killed Void Beasts was terrifyingly high.

They surged forward like locusts. In an instant, dozens of Void Beasts were wiped out without a trace.

Nearby, Li Xuanqi said nothing, covering her mouth to hide a giggle.

What was this, really? During the days she spent alone with Wang Xiu, she had witnessed him perform even more exaggerated feats, like the time he shattered a Void Beast with his chest. A Void Beast had charged him madly, only to break apart on impact while Wang Xiu remained completely unharmed. Since that day, Li Xuanqi knew that Wang Xiu’s physical strength was astounding, enough to be called a human-shaped Fierce Beast. If not for the complete absence of any demonic aura about him, she might even have suspected that he was some pure-blooded Divine or Fierce Beast in human form.

She gazed at Wang Xiu beside her, her beautiful eyes flashing with wonder. The mysteries surrounding this young man were almost too numerous to count. Every time she thought she finally understood him, he would pull out a new trick that left her dazzled and bewildered.

...

All the talents were excited and filled with fighting spirit.

The deeper they traveled into the Void Ancient Path, the stronger the void energy became, and the more powerful the Void Beasts born from it became. Even run-of-the-mill Void Beasts grew significantly more formidable.

The Void Crystal Cores inside them also became larger, contained richer energy, and were of higher value.

Of course, there were also more high-rank Void Beasts and Void Beast Kings in this area.

Normally, even if the talents from the various Great Immortal Sects banded together, their efficiency at hunting Void Beasts in this land wouldn’t be particularly high.

But now, as they swept through the area, they faced almost no obstacles.

They hunted down the Void Beasts, slaughtering them by the pack and by the nest.

Normally, with so many people in one team, there wouldn’t be enough spoils to go around. But things were different now. Thanks to their high efficiency, nearly everyone received a share.

"Hahaha, this young master took down another ten Void Beasts today! It feels great..."

[DING!]

[The System has detected bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining +99 Mana!]

"Cut the crap! Do you even think before you brag? I landed the fatal blows on at least eight of those beasts; you just delivered the finishing touches!"

[DING!]

[The System has detected bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining +99 Mana!]

"Both of you, stop blowing your own horns. If I hadn’t cleared the way at the front, could you have dealt damage so comfortably? If you ask me, all these achievements should be credited to me..."

[DING!]

[The System has detected bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining +88 Mana!]

"I used to think these Void Beasts were such a big deal, but now... as long as you find their weak spot, can’t you suppress them with just the flick of a finger?"

[DING!]

[The System has detected bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining +123 Mana!]

"You make it sound so easy. If it weren’t for Brother Wang Xiu, you’d have been trampled to death by a Void Beast without ever finding its flaw..."

"..."

Soon, all the Void Beasts in the area were cleared out.

The talents happily divided the spoils, chatting and bantering all the while.

Wang Xiu sat on high, watching the scene and listening to the System notifications in his ear, a smile forming on his lips.

My Mana is becoming more and more complete. The pace of my Cultivation Level’s advancement is a bit frightening!

Ji Zidian sat nearby, her hands propping up her chin. As she gazed at Wang Xiu’s genuine smile, her eyes twinkled like stars. Brother Wang Xiu’s magnanimity is truly impressive. He’s letting all the junior brothers share the spoils from so many Void Beasts without taking a single piece for himself...

...

The group set off once more.

「On this day.」

The scene before them made the nearly 10,000 talents stop dead in their tracks.

Their hair stood on end, and a chill crept down their spines.
