Live Strong in the Wilderness
Chapter 489: Ling Qi’s Strength
However, the ’Spiritual Energy’ here is indeed much denser.
The trees are also much sturdier than those in a level 3 Fierce Beast Territory.
Soon, everyone got the camp set up and gathered a lot of firewood.
It was now just past three in the afternoon.
After setting up the camp, Xu Yi and the others began to rest.
After all, traveling for three days straight is quite exhausting.
After resting for several hours, everyone got up to prepare dinner.
"Xu Yi and his team’s speed is pretty fast, they actually moved near the level 5 Fierce Beast Territory?"
Inside the Spirit Race’s observation spaceship, Ling Qi, who had been in seclusion for a dozen days, commented.
She had previously used the sap of the Illusionary Flower Beast to advance to the level 8 Mage realm, but Ling Qi felt her state was unstable, so she went into secluded cultivation.
Upon hearing Ling Qi’s voice, Number 6 immediately stood up and reported, "They just arrived at this place, and it hasn’t been more than four hours."
"Have they had any encounters with level 5 Fierce Beasts?" Ling Qi asked casually as she sat down.
"Three days ago, a Fierce Beast that was nearing a breakthrough to level 6 flew over their heads," Number 6 replied truthfully.
"Oh?" Ling Qi immediately became interested. There is a huge difference between level 5 and level 4 Fierce Beasts. Moreover, a Fierce Beast about to break through to level 6 is an extremely terrifying existence for Xu Yi and his team.
In such a situation, they can still continue to advance?
It seems her sister really didn’t misjudge.
This Xu Yi indeed has the heart of a brave person.
Others might not be able to perceive the power of a level 5 Fierce Beast, but Xu Yi, being a Divine Master, definitely can.
Regardless of Fierce Beasts or other creatures, level 5 is a very special dividing line.
Your achievements become clear once you reach level 5.
Therefore, observing the state of humans entering level 5 has become one of Ling Qi’s most important tasks.
"How are the other humans doing? Have many advanced to level 4?" Ling Qi continued to ask, wanting to know the general situation after such a long period of seclusion.
"Besides Xu Yi’s team, 6 others have advanced to the level 4 Mage realm, and a large number of people are expected to advance to level 4 in 5 days," Number 6 promptly reported.
"Not bad, they’re not too far behind. How about the other Awakened ones? Anyone awakened?" Ling Qi was more concerned about those 499 people, curious to know if any of them had awakened.
"Unfortunately, not yet."
Ling Qi nodded, signaling Number 6 to sit down.
Ling Qi herself observed for a while and then left.
She needed to fight now.
An 8th-level Mage can only handle a level 7 Fierce Beast, and even then, only single combat.
However, Ling Qi was fairly stable; she teleported herself to the edge of the level 7 Fierce Beast Territory. Here, she would primarily encounter Fierce Beasts at the peak of level 6.
When Fierce Beasts reach level 5, as their power peaks and they approach level 6, they will enter the level 6 Fierce Beast Territory seeking a breakthrough.
Of course, many of them will be slain by level 7 Fierce Beasts.
However, some formidable ones will kill level 7 Fierce Beasts and successfully advance to level 7.
Thus, in this place, Ling Qi was relatively safe.
Currently, there are no level 9 Mages within the Spirit Race, and she wants to be the first.
Her sister has already become the first level 9 Divine Master, so she feels she cannot fall behind.
Unfortunately, the Illusionary Flower Beast is exceedingly hard to find.
Several laboratories have tried to cultivate them, yet it’s challenging to accelerate their growth. Research is ongoing, but no results have been achieved.
Moreover, on Planet Two, countless Flying Balls are searching for signs of the Illusionary Flower Beast, but so far no new ones have been found.
As for Planet One, the Fierce Beasts are too powerful, which limits the exploration range of the Flying Balls, making it hard to search. However, if found, the effects would undoubtedly be much stronger than those previously discovered.
Ling Qi hadn’t been at the location long before encountering a Fierce Beast.
A level 6 peak Fierce Beast still packed a punch.
However, Ling Qi, being an 8th-level Mage, already steadied against level 7 Fierce Beasts, not to mention a level 6 peak one.
In less than two minutes, Ling Qi’s Telekinesis Arrow pierced through the level 6 Fierce Beast’s head.
Then, a purple Brain Crystal was extracted by Ling Qi.
She did not process the Fierce Beast’s corpse. After all, she didn’t need to consume its meat to enhance her strength.
The Fierce Beast’s body was left to nature to handle.
She then entered the level 7 Fierce Beast Territory.
With her wearing Battle Armor, the night was as bright as day in her eyes, not hindering her actions in any way.
The night did not disrupt Ling Qi’s combat.
At this point, Xu Yi and his team were still training.
Here, everyone could sense significant effects from their training, so they made the most of their time.
After breaking through level 5, one can truly comprehend the might of level 5.
Time flew by, and the dawn arrived once more.
"System, log in."
After Xu Yi completed his 174th day of check-in, he proceeded to practice his daily Body Refining Technique regimen.
Tomorrow, Xu Yi would receive a new gift pack.
He’s curious about what could be inside, perhaps another Storage Space?
Before, Xu Yi never anticipated so eagerly to obtain a Storage Space.
"Xu Yi, do you have any plans today?" Lu Ke asked curiously after seeing Xu Yi finish his Body Refining Technique without immediately leaving the tent.
Since they were already near the level 5 Fierce Beast Territory, would Xu Yi dare to venture out?
"No plans, just training in the camp," Xu Yi replied.
Not yet reaching level 5, Xu Yi felt it wise not to rashly enter the level 5 Fierce Beast Territory. Better to be cautious, it’s always beneficial. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Lu Ke nodded, refraining from asking why Xu Yi had no other plans.
Xu Yi staying in camp for constant training felt reassuring to Lu Ke.
The strength of level 5 Fierce Beasts was unknown to everyone.
If they were immensely powerful, Xu Yi risking it might lead to injury. In serious cases, it could force him out of the expedition.
Losing Xu Yi would pose a massive challenge for Lu Ke and her team in the upcoming thirty-some days.
After Xu Yi walked out of the camp, the others had not yet risen.
They had stayed up late training the night before, so they hadn’t woken up yet.
The mounts were quietly lying in the camp, not causing any disturbances.
Lightning perched on a tree, watching its surroundings vigilantly.
Even White Feather, who usually loved to play, stayed still, resting at the entrance of Xu Yi’s tent.
Obviously, it sensed the danger here.
Suddenly, all of the Fierce Beasts stood at attention, focusing intently in one direction.
In the distance, a Fierce Beast about the size of Lightning appeared.
Is it level 4 or level 5?
