57: Level 11 Iron Armored Dragon!

The forest was truly vast.

The scenery was beautiful.

But it concealed endless dangers.

Guo Feng and crew continued to advance, searching for the Lingxi Deer habitat.

The map given by the general store owner only showed this location in the forest.

The crew walked for over two hours.

They had already reached the depths of the forest.

Along the way, they had slain many spirit beasts blocking their path.

Boom—

A massive Level 7 Blue Lizard was riddled with wounds by Luo Juan’s dozens of fireballs, collapsing to the ground with a thud.

Qin Hao waved his hand, and his flying sword pierced through the Level 7 Lizard’s head, retrieving the beast bead within.

“Damn it, this Level 7 Lizard almost killed me!”

Liu Qiang jumped out from beside the Level 7 Lizard’s corpse, looking disgruntled.

It turned out he had used his Diamond Body to block the lizard’s attacks just now.

The three of them, working together, spent over ten minutes to finally take down this enormous lizard.

Meanwhile, on the other side, two Level 7 Lizards, two Level 7 Forest Wind Wolves, and four Level 6 Swift Leopards were entangled in battle with Guo Feng.

These Level 7 Lizards had very hard hides, and their combat ability was extremely strong, with excellent protection for their vital points.

Therefore, even with Guo Feng’s continuous slashes and instantaneous movements, in these ten-plus minutes, he only managed to heavily wound the two Level 7 Lizards.

The most terrifying aspect of spirit beasts was that they possessed stronger fur, sharper claws, larger bodies, and greater vitality than humans of the same level.

So, even if Guo Feng’s strength was comparable to Level 10.

Facing these large groups of powerful Level 6 and 7 spirit beasts, it was impossible for him to instantly kill them.

“Damn, Old Guo is so fierce! It’s so much trouble for the three of us to fight one Level 7 Lizard, but he’s fighting so many alone!”

“And their setup is excellent: two thick-skinned lizards for containment, while the other agile ones surround and attack!”

“Guo Feng is amazing!”

The three of them also felt their scalps tingle watching this.

“Alright, that’s enough, we can’t drag this out any longer!”

After an intense battle, Guo Feng’s comprehension of the secrets of using his blade techniques, movement techniques, and instantaneous movement had improved considerably.

However, seeing that Liu Qiang and crew had finished their fights while he hadn’t, wouldn’t that be a loss of face?

“Kill!”

His gaze sharpened, and he raised the Second-level Alloy Battle Blade in his hand: “Onefold Lightning Strike Slash!”

“Slash!”

“Slash!”

“Slash!”

In an instant, terrifying power erupted from him, and his body shot out like lightning.

The blade edge was like electricity!

With every loud shout, the blade edge, like thunder, struck a spirit beast.

The two Level 7 Lizards were already covered in wounds from Guo Feng’s previous slashes, their hides broken.

And now, Guo Feng’s blade strikes were divinely precise, once again striking the opponent’s existing wounds.

The ultimate skill erupted, with a one-time amplification.

The blade light of the sharp Second-level Alloy Battle Blade directly cut the lizard in half at the waist.

In the blink of an eye, the Level 7 Lizards and Level 7 Forest Wind Wolves were slain by his ultimate skill.

The Level 6 Swift Leopards were so frightened that they turned and ran.

“Can you escape from me?”

Guo Feng chuckled, his figure flashed, and he continuously used instantaneous movement, each strike severing a beast’s head.

In a moment.

Guo Feng had killed four Level 7 spirit beasts and four Level 6 spirit beasts.

Whoosh—

His stamina was still greatly depleted.

He took a deep breath and waved his hand: “Old Liu, Old Qin, clean up the battlefield!”

“Alright!”

Liu Qiang nodded quickly and rushed out with Qin Hao.

Guo Feng, however, sat cross-legged and circulated the Xuan Huang True Dragon Art, not to absorb spiritual energy.

But to recover his stamina and mental energy!

Both the Five Hearts Asking Heaven Guiding Technique and the Xuan Huang True Dragon Art had the function of restoring stamina and mental energy.

It was just that the Xuan Huang True Dragon Art was faster.

Moreover, he also discovered that the more fatigued he was, the easier it was to make progress in cultivating the Xuan Huang True Dragon Art.

Soon, his stamina and mental energy recovered to their peak.

Liu Qiang and Qin Hao had also finished cleaning up the battlefield and handed the beast beads to Guo Feng for safekeeping.

“Alright, we should have arrived at a hegemon’s territory. The spirit beasts are getting stronger and stronger, so we need to be careful.”

Guo Feng then looked at the crew and said, “I have a premonition that the Lingxi Deer are nearby!”

“Good!”

The crew also nodded quickly, raising their vigilance to the highest level.

They continued forward.

After walking for a while, Guo Feng heard the sound of flowing water ahead. He followed the sound.

He then saw a stream.

Though called a stream, it was actually four to five meters wide.

The stream water was clear.

They followed the stream upstream and slowly arrived at the base of a cliff.

“We’ve actually reached the foot of the mountain!”

Liu Qiang raised an eyebrow.

Beep beep beep…

Just then, the sensors on their chests flashed yellow, emitting an alarm.

“We’re at the edge of the first and second circles. The foot of the mountain belongs to the first circle, and the mountain itself belongs to the second circle.”

Luo Juan said quickly.

Chen Lingfeng had taught them this knowledge in class before.

A circle border meant that spirit beasts exceeding that circle could cross over at any time.

Because there wasn’t a strictly defined circle.

It was just an artificial division.

“It’s fine, we’ll just search for Lingxi Deer nearby. At most, if we don’t find them by noon tomorrow, we’ll leave!”

Guo Feng quickly told the crew.

He also didn’t dare to take too many risks.

Because based on the Level 7 spirit beasts, he could tell that fighting Level 10 spirit beasts would not be easy for him.

If it was a Level 11, he probably wouldn’t be an opponent.

“I’ll listen to you!”

Liu Qiang quickly said.

Qin Hao also nodded: “Me too!”

Luo Juan also quickly said: “Me too!”

“Alright, let’s search. Don’t separate too far. If you encounter a powerful spirit beast, the three of you stick together, prioritize survival, and escape if you can. Don’t worry about me.”

Guo Feng walked while instructing his teammates, “Because it’s very easy for me to escape!”

“Understood!”

The crew nodded quickly.

They weren’t worried about Guo Feng being unable to escape, but rather about holding him back.

After all, Guo Feng could use instantaneous movement!

Ooh-yo, ooh-yo…

After walking for a while, a pleasant sound came from the gurgling stream ahead.

“Deer cries?!”

The crew’s eyes lit up, and they quickly followed the sound.

Soon, they arrived in front of a large pool of water.

Peeking from behind a large boulder, they saw a group of deer, about one and a half to one and a half meters tall, with cloud patterns on their bodies and large antlers, drinking water by the pool.

Above the pool was a large waterfall stretching for dozens of meters.

Strangely, in the center of the waterfall, a large rock about ten meters wide extended out.

Inside the large rock, a cave was faintly visible.

“The spiritual energy here is very strong, have you felt it?”

Luo Juan said in a low voice.

“Mm, the concentration is several times higher than other places, even stronger than Old Guo’s spiritual energy villa!”

Liu Qiang also nodded quickly.

“About two spirit stones can gather here in a day!”

Guo Feng also said.

“Then this is truly a cultivation holy land!”

Liu Qiang looked excited.

Qin Hao shook his head: “It’s probably not that simple. Besides the Cloud Rhinoceros Deer, haven’t you noticed there are no other spirit beasts?”

Roar—

No sooner had Qin Hao finished speaking than a loud roar suddenly came from above the waterfall.

The roar shook the heavens.

Making their eardrums ache!

And at the same time, a massive spirit beast, resembling a Tyrannosaurus Rex in appearance, emerged from behind the waterfall with heavy footsteps.

Beep beep beep…

The sensors flashed red, emitting an urgent sound. Fortunately, they had lowered the volume, so only they could hear it.

“A Level 11 Ironclad Dragon!”

Guo Feng’s expression changed.
