Live Strong in the Wilderness

The meat of an 8th-level Fierce Beast is very useful for Lu Ke and Xu Yi, so naturally, it cannot be wasted.

It’s not only beneficial for them, but even more so for others.

Even the mounts need to consume high-level Fierce Beast meat to enhance themselves. This method is the quickest way for the Fierce Beasts.

After tidying up, Lu Ke took a moment to recover and then began searching for the next 8th-level peak Fierce Beast.

Even though it wasn’t yet dawn, for them, a world seen through Spiritual Vision needs no light; perception is enough.

Xu Yi did not use the Devouring Spirit because he felt he didn’t need it.

Lu Ke was different; she had just broken through to level 8 and wasn’t very familiar with utilizing the power of level 8.

Thus, Xu Yi suggested stabilizing her realm before taking her into the territory of a 9th-level Fierce Beast.

After all, dealing with a 9th-level Fierce Beast and an 8th-level peak Fierce Beast are entirely different matters.

Xu Yi didn’t consider entering the 9th-level Fierce Beast territory without enhancing his strength to its peak.

The best way to enhance one’s strength is through combat.

In life-and-death battles, one can best improve combat skills and gain experience.

Furthermore, there are many 8th-level peak Fierce Beasts here.

Approximately every 10 kilometers, there’s an 8th-level peak Fierce Beast, a distance that would take them only about ten minutes to fly.

Lu Ke and Xu Yi barely rested, hunting one beast after another, regulating their breath, and restoring their Spiritual Power before immediately pursuing the next 8th-level peak Fierce Beast.

The two kept hunting.

One Fierce Beast after another fell before them.

The brain crystals of these beasts are humanity’s gateway to Spirit Blue Star.

Brutal?

For one species’ survival, it’s considered brutal for other species.

Because they get hunted and consumed.

However, it’s the law of nature.

No species can defy the law of nature.

Defy it, and nature quickly weeds you out.

After hunting for a total of five days, Xu Yi contacted Lu Ke using the Star Chart.

Xu Yi told Lu Ke to stay put while he piloted the shuttle back to her location for a rendezvous.

Xu Yi has a Space Movement B-level Device capable of a 10-kilometer displacement.

Even though he hadn’t used it yet, he knew that it could function with the energy of brain crystals.

So, Xu Yi took out that space movement device and activated it.

Xu Yi felt a sudden drop in temperature around him and some strange ripples formed.

Then, he was at a different location.

The process was quick, taking only about 5 seconds to move 10 kilometers.

Then, Xu Yi continued to move.

Although the path wasn’t entirely straight, it was much faster than flying.

After using it 11 times, Xu Yi returned near where the shuttle was parked.

Then, Xu Yi flew back to the shuttle’s location, piloting it toward Lu Ke’s direction.

Three hours later, Xu Yi’s shuttle landed at the spot Lu Ke had cleared.

After marking the shuttle’s position, Xu Yi and Lu Ke moved toward the territory of the 9th-level Fierce Beast.

The distance wasn’t far, not even 500 meters.

Mists were swirling, a crucial marker of the boundary point.

Reaching the boundary, they felt a pressure.

After all, neither of them was yet at the 8th-level peak. Although they had the capability to hunt 8th-level peak beasts.

"Lu Ke, don’t blindly insist. If it doesn’t work, withdraw. We’re here to challenge ourselves, not to throw our lives away," Xu Yi cautioned Lu Ke, fearing she might push herself too hard and get severely injured.

If you don’t know how to protect yourself, you could truly lose your life.

"Mm, I understand. I will definitely be a bit timid," Lu Ke smiled at Xu Yi.

Then, Lu Ke reached out her hand to Xu Yi.

Xu Yi hesitated for a moment, then took Lu Ke’s hand.

Together, they stepped into the territory of the 9th-level Fierce Beast.

Breathing felt like knives cutting their lungs; their bodies felt as though pierced by countless needles.

Xu Yi continuously mobilized his Spiritual Power to heal his injuries.

Lu Ke was doing the same, her expression equally serious.

After two minutes, Lu Ke only managed to hold on for two minutes before retreating.

After retreating, she coughed a few times.

Blood spilled from her mouth.

Because her lungs were injured.

Although Spiritual Power can quickly heal wounds, there’s a limit to it. Beyond that, it can’t continue healing.

Lu Ke had surpassed that limit, hence she retreated.

Spiritual Power nourished her body, repairing her wounds.

Xu Yi managed to hold on for two more minutes than Lu Ke before retreating.

He did not use the Body Rapid Repair Liquid but instead used Healing Hand on himself.

The special 100-day package, Xu Yi rarely used it, because it heals those non-material injuries.

However, Xu Yi thought Spiritual Energy should also be a material.

The result surprised Xu Yi; the effect of Healing Hand was much stronger than using Spiritual Power.

In five minutes, Xu Yi had fully recovered.

This result made Xu Yi very happy.

So, he immediately applied it on Lu Ke.
