The golden ape ran back and forth beside Mu Chen, provoking him from time to time. However, it did not dare to rush forward.
This golden ape was also a type of low-grade spirit beast. It was called the gold-plated ape. Its entire body was golden. If it was under the sun, it would emit a golden brilliance.
Their strength was slightly weaker than the Bloodboar Tiger, but their agility and speed far exceeded the Bloodboar Tiger.
These gold-plated apes would not attack people casually. Their greatest hobby was to pick all kinds of fruits and petals and then make delicious wine.
Mu Chen quietly looked at the three Gold-Plating Apes in front of him. In the past month, he had encountered all kinds of Spiritual Beasts. Some were slightly weaker than the Bloodpig Tiger, while some were slightly stronger.
The most dangerous thing was that ten days ago, he encountered a mountain bear. This spirit beast had a huge body and was extremely strong. Ordinary attacks on its body were no different from scratching an itch. Even the defense that the Bloodeartiger was proud of paled in comparison to the mountain bear.
Mu Chen had spent a few days fighting with the Mountain Bear. He had even activated his Time Stop, which was almost activated. However, he had managed to use the power of time to disrupt the Mountain Bear's pace. He had used the Dragon's Shadow to pierce through its eyes and minced its brain into a paste. Only then did he obtain victory.
However, the benefits brought by the Mountain Bear were self-evident. The energy of the Spiritual Beast's Soul Essence was much more than that of the Bloodboar Tiger. Unfortunately, even so, it did not allow the template to reach 0.1% charging.
Sigh, it seemed that the road to restoration was still far away.
This was the so-called long road of cultivation. I will search up and down.
The blood-colored token had its own space. All the spiritual beasts that were killed were separated by their strength and recorded.
Mu Chen felt the dozens of Spiritual Beasts in the token and recalled the past month. It had been too difficult, and this was only the beginning. He did not know what kind of danger awaited him in the future.
However, this was also good. After a month of life and death battles, Mu Chen's originally abnormal mentality had become more stable. His observation had become more acute, and his combat awareness had become faster.
All in all, he had transformed from an ordinary person into a wilderness survival expert.
At the same time, the fighting ability that was originally just a good external skill could now be considered to have reached a higher level. The benefits brought by the thousand magic tricks were greater than the other gifts. At least for Mu Chen, who was originally an otaku, it was really useful.
During this period of time, he had tried a lot of new moves. Many moves that he could only imagine in his mind in the past had been created by him. Although some of the effects were not satisfactory, there were still a few that surprised him.
Well, he had tried many times with the time ability, allowing him to figure out some ways to use it.
"Jiji!" The gold-plated monkey made a shooing motion, but it did not attack Mu Chen.
"It's not like we haven't met before. I just want you to order some wine. Why are you so stingy?”Mu Chen smiled as he looked at the monkeys that were jumping around and waved at them.
Seemingly able to understand Mu Chen's meaning, the burly ape continuously waved its hands and bared its teeth, its face filled with anger.
"How stingy. If I didn't help you kill the mountain bear, your wine would have been drunk by it.”Mu Chen smiled as he walked over.
The gold-plated monkey was furious, but it had no other choice. It could only watch as Mu Chen walked over.
Suddenly, the gold-plated monkey stopped Mu Chen and gestured at the slightly smaller monkey behind him.
The mountain monkey was stunned for a moment, then it quickly ran into the forest. After a while, it took out two gourds.
The gold-plated monkey handed the gourd over and stuffed it into Mu Chen's hand. Then, it pointed at the mountain peak in the distance and squeaked.
Mu Chen pulled out the cork from the gourd, sniffed it, and took a deep sip.
He only felt a warm current flowing into his throat. In an instant, he felt extremely comfortable, and the fatigue in his body quickly dissipated.
"Fortunately, I met you two half a month ago. If I didn't have this wine that can quickly recover my strength, I might have really used some trump cards.”Mu Chen looked at the nervous gold-plated monkey and smiled. He looked into the distance and said," You are right. I am indeed leaving. The Spiritual Beasts here are no longer a big challenge to me. Perhaps I can meet Spiritual Beasts of a higher level on the other side of the mountain.”
The gold-plated monkey saw Mu Chen looking into the distance. It was unknown if it really understood, but it nodded repeatedly and pointed at the mountain in the distance, continuously squeaking.
"Alright, I won't stay here. Goodbye, Monkey. To be honest, we like you.”
Mu Chen smiled and slowly walked towards the mountain.
Over the past month, Mu Chen had killed all the Spiritual Beasts within a radius of a dozen miles. The only ones left were the low-grade Spiritual Beasts that did not have much offensive power and ferocity, as well as the three gold-plated monkeys.
The energy provided by the spirit beasts here was already of little help to the template. Next, it was time to hunt for high-grade spirit beasts.
"…I feel like something is missing.”
Mu Chen muttered to himself.
Right, level.
Although he was not clear about the level evaluation standard, there was something similar to an experience bar behind the level of Mu Chen's information card.
[Level: Level 1 (0/1)]
If he was not mistaken, the (0/1) at the back should be an experience bar. However, Mu Chen could not understand why there was only 1 point. After killing so many Spiritual Beasts, he did not gain any experience at all.
After thinking for a while, he found that there were no clues at all. Mu Chen decided to give up on thinking about this for the time being. After all, he did not know what benefits there would be if he increased his level.
"For the past month, other than meeting Wu Yingying, I haven't met anyone else. If I wasn't an otaku back then, I would have found it hard to endure this loneliness. However, it's not bad that I didn't meet anyone. At least, it makes me feel relaxed. I don't need to disguise myself.”
Mu Chen placed the two gourds of wine into his storage pouch. How could he bear to casually drink such a fine wine that could quickly dispel fatigue and restore physical strength? Who knew how many dangers awaited in the Spiritual Road ahead?
When he had the chance in the future, he would definitely get more of this wine. Of course, he was not snatching it. He was not so shameless. He felt that it was better to exchange for such a simple spirit beast. If there was a chance...
Standing on the top of the mountain, he looked into the distance. The mountains stretched endlessly, and he could not see the end of them.
Mu Chen turned around and looked at the place where he had stayed for a month. Then, he walked towards the other side of the mountain.
It was extremely quiet along the way. This place seemed to have been swept clean. Not to mention encountering people, they did not even encounter a single spirit beast.
However, Mu Chen was not in a hurry. He believed that as long as he continued forward, he would eventually encounter humans or Spiritual Beasts.
Two days later, Mu Chen walked out from a stretch of mountain ridges. In front of him was a vast grassland that was lush and green, with no end in sight.
Suddenly, two black shadows appeared a few thousand meters away from the left. They slowly walked over. It was actually two human figures.
Mu Chen was startled. After more than a month, he had finally met another youth who had entered the Spiritual Road?
However, he did not take the initiative to go up to them. Since the blood-colored token had already reminded him that the final evaluation depended on performance and the number of tokens, then the two people walking over from the opposite side might become friends, but there was a greater possibility that they would become enemies in a life-and-death battle.
That was because each token might contain the records of dozens of spirit beasts.
Moreover, most importantly, he was a supporter of the " human nature is evil " theory. He never minded guessing something with the greatest malice. He had been able to live until now because he never expected the enemy to show mercy. He had always used his greatest malice to guess all the actions of the enemy.
In a dangerous situation, Mu Chen would never expect the enemy to be merciful, nor would he weaken the enemy and force them to be mentally retarded.
He wasn't King Arthur of Fate Zero, whose IQ had been forcefully pulled down to the level of a retard. He didn't insist on some stupid chivalry all day long.
"Hello, brother in front, how are you?”
Just as Mu Chen was considering whether he should retreat or take a look first, the two of them also discovered Mu Chen's existence. Their speed suddenly increased by several times, and they quickly flew over.
Of the two youths, one was dressed in black and had delicate features. The other was carrying a spiked club. He was tall and sturdy, and his face was red.| She was topless.
"Hello!" Mu Chen shrugged his shoulders. Since he did not want to avoid it, he responded with a frivolous smile that did not seem close or cold.
The two of them instantly appeared in front of Mu Chen. The handsome young man in black clothes took the initiative to introduce him."My name is Zhan Cheng, and this is my brother Zhan Xiong. Oh, that's right, we're from the Northern Heavens Continent.”
"Mu Chen, Hundred Spirit Continent." Mu Chen spoke very little. This was not because he was putting on airs, but because he knew that his social skills were poor. If he spoke too much, he might cause trouble. Therefore, he did not say much based on the principle of saying more and making fewer mistakes.
"It's been a month, and you're the fourth person we've met. It's really not easy to cultivate in the Spiritual Road!”Zhan Cheng sighed. He walked forward and patted Mu Chen's shoulder.
Mu Chen's eyes narrowed, but he did not dodge.
They met three people along the way, so there was a few pieces of information: First, it was very likely that these three people had been killed by them and had taken the token. This meant that these two people were very powerful and were brothers. If the two of them joined forces, it was indeed not something that ordinary people could resist.
Secondly, the two of them did not have any ill intentions. They just met three people.
However, the three of them did not have any ill intentions and did not attack them.
The chances of that happening seemed a little small.
"Brother Mu Chen, how many people did you encounter?”Zhan Cheng had no idea what Mu Chen was thinking and asked eagerly.
"One, and it's a girl." Mu Chen did not hide anything and replied with a smile.
"Oh, we met three guys. We're all brothers and we had a good chat.”Zhan Cheng smiled and patted Mu Chen's shoulder.
Have a good chat?
Mu Chen almost revealed a mocking smile on his face.
What was this place? It was the Spiritual Road, known as the most difficult Spiritual Road, and the rules of the Spiritual Road also determined that most people would not be able to have a good chat.
Since the two brothers Zhan Cheng and Zhan Xiong were able to chat happily with three people in a row, there was only one possibility. They were the first type of people. Those three people were basically killed by them or robbed of their tokens.
They came with ill intentions!
"The sky is about to turn dark. Spiritual Beasts appear at night, which is more dangerous. Brother Mu Chen, why don't we go together?”Zhan Cheng looked at the sky and invited him with a smile.
"I'm not interested.”Mu Chen shook his head. He did not intend to attack them, so he decided to leave first.
However, sometimes, even if you don't look for trouble, trouble will find you. This was the situation now.
"How could that be? They were all youths who had entered the Spiritual Road. It was very likely that they would walk together to the end and become brothers of the same academy. How could they disturb them? Brother Mu Chen, by saying such words, you are not giving me face and not trusting me!”
Of course, why would he give face to someone he had just met? How much trust would he have?
"Since you've already said so, if I still don't agree, it'll indeed be too disrespectful. Then let's spend the night together so that we can resist the night attack of the spirit beasts. However, we agreed that we would take turns on duty at night. However, there are two of you, so I'll be on duty for an extra two hours.”
"How can that be? The two of us will take care of each other along the way. On the other hand, Brother Mu Chen, you definitely won't have a good rest. You don't have to be on duty for the first night.”Zhan Cheng patted Mu Chen's shoulder and said with a smile.
"This isn't good, right?"
Mu Chen frowned. Of course, he was not being hypocritical. It was just that he was not used to accepting the kindness and enthusiasm of others, even if it was hypocritical.
"What's not good about it? It's settled!”Zhan Cheng's face deliberately darkened." It's fate that we meet on the Spiritual Road. Everyone should work together and challenge the Spiritual Road together until the end. If you say anything else, I'll get angry.”
"Oh, alright!" Mu Chen shrugged his shoulders and nodded.
Zhan Cheng smiled and turned around. He looked at Zhan Xiong and winked at him.
Mu Chen did not see this scene, but he had never trusted them from the beginning, so it did not matter.
On the other hand, Zhan Cheng was secretly laughing in his heart.
He had been patting Mu Chen's shoulder repeatedly just now to see how Mu Chen would react. If he was very vigilant and refused to pat him, it meant that this kid was very cautious.
But now, it seemed that it was as easy as flipping his hand for a hothead to snatch the token from him!
This was the true face of the Spiritual Road. As soon as they met, they began to scheme cruelly!
