Chapter 2132: Running Out of Time

Zhao Hai lurked quietly in the woods. He didnt merge with the trees, nor did he dive underground. He wasnt hiding from demon beasts now; he was preparing to hunt.

It has been one month since Zhao Hai entered the Mountain of Demon Beasts. He still hasnt found out anything for the entire month. Now, Zhao Hai has determined that there were already seven groups of cultivators who came to the mountain. The total number of cultivators has reached around a hundred.

The target of Zhao Hais hunt this time was a group of seven. All seven cultivators were in the Soul Fusion Realm. Originally, Zhao Hai didnt want to kill them. But he didnt expect the group of seven to kill three rogue cultivators outside the nameless mountain. Zhao Hai knew those three rogue cultivators. The group of seven killed uninvolved people!

Because of this, Zhao Hai decided to eliminate these people. If he didnt kill them, Zhao Hai would have failed his friends from the nameless town.

Although Zhao Hai was only casual friends with the people in the nameless town, he still shared a connection with them. As for the people who went to find the seals, they had no connection with Zhao Hai. Therefore, Zhao Hai has to clean them up.

All cultivators who went to look for the seals have liquid silver dust on them. Zhao Hai was fully aware of their exact locations. Therefore, Zhao Hai knew that the group would appear near him after a while; and he was ready to ambush them.

Zhao Hai wasnt idle in the past month. Although he hadnt found the seal, he received plenty of beasts and plants from the Mountain of Demon Beasts. What surprised Zhao Hai was when he sent the beasts and plants to the s.p.a.ce, the s.p.a.ce prompted that they were genetically incomplete organisms. This made him feel strange.

Genetically incomplete lifeform? This was the first time Zhao Hai heard a prompt like that. In other words, the reason there were so many demon beasts in the Mountain of Demon Beasts might be because their genes were incomplete.

As Zhao Hai was thinking, a rustling sound was heard. Zhao Hai immediately concentrated, and he pulled his blade out. At the same time, he restrained his aura and his killing intent.

The rustling sound was getting closer and closer. Before long, several figures appeared in Zhao Hais sight. When the group was about 100 meters away, Zhao Hai made a command in his mind. The group quickly felt a pain in the soles of their feet, then their feet became numb.

The group were also cultivators with rich experience. Feeling a numbing feeling in their feet, they immediately knew that they were under attack. They responded quickly and sealed the acupuncture points in their feet. They immediately attacked the ground underneath them. However, they didnt sense any response.

The group of cultivators were attacked by small insects from Zhao Hais s.p.a.ce. The poison of the insects was very strong. Once one was bitten by them, the poison would immediately spread to the entire body. If the targets reaction was slow, they would die within the minute.

As soon as the cultivators sensed that they didnt hit anything, they quickly took out bottles from the spatial items. Then they poured out a pill and threw it into their mouths.

Seeing this, Zhao Hai knew that they should be eating detoxification pills. Detoxification pills werent extremely valuable pills. However, they were divided into levels according to certain poisons. Detoxification pills of higher levels could detoxify more poisons compared to pills of lower levels. Even if a poison couldnt be solved, the pill could still alleviate the symptoms. It would give the cultivator enough time to expel the poison themselves.

The moment the cultivators threw the detoxification pill into their mouth, Zhao Hai made his move. He wielded his long blade and attacked the group.

The group immediately discovered Zhao Hai. Their complexions couldnt help but change. They thought that they had run into an unknown demon beast. Now, that doesnt seem to be the case. They were deliberately ambushed.

The group immediately raised their weapons to fight back. At this time, Zhao Hais blade technique completely unfolded. The group was already poisoned, so their combat strength was a sixth of their peak. Although they have their own artifacts, Zhao Hais blade was too ferocious. They could only pa.s.sively defend. They didnt even have the opportunity to release their artifacts.

It didnt take long before pitiful yells were heard. Zhao Hai received his blade and then waved his hand. He sent the corpses of the cultivators to the s.p.a.ce and then immediately left.

Zhao Hai knew that demon beasts would arrive soon. Although the fight was relatively quiet, the demon beasts could still smell blood.

In the past month, Zhao Hai fought against demon beasts more than once. He was clear about the capabilities of the demon beasts. The more he fought against the demon beasts, the more Zhao Hai was surprised about their instincts. Their five senses went way beyond a cultivators.

Demon beasts had ten times more sensitive hearing compared to other beasts. This enhancement was truly astonis.h.i.+ng. These senses were what made the demon beasts terrifying.

Just as Zhao Hai thought, not long after he left, demon beasts began appearing at the site of the battle. They didnt leave the area until half a day pa.s.sed.

When Zhao Hai was in a relatively safe place, he immediately released the Undead that he had just gained. He asked the Undead about the situation of the mountain.

From the Undead, Zhao Hai became aware of the mountains situation. However, the information didnt matter a lot. Although they had returned to the mountain for several years, the group didnt actually go to many areas. They only lingered around a specific route. Their understanding of the mountain couldnt compare to Zhao Hai.

After receiving the Undead, Zhao Hai couldnt help but frown. Staying in the mountain for one month, he understood the state of the surroundings. He even mapped it and added the terrain to the s.p.a.ces map. After searching inch by inch, he still didnt discover anything.

Zhao Hai was convinced that if he followed the map given to him by Shopkeeper Chen, finding the seal would be impossible. Therefore, Zhao Hai was preparing to head even deeper into the mountain.

Although heading deeper into the mountain would increase the present danger, Zhao Hai doesnt want to break his promise with Shopkeeper Chen. Most importantly, if Shopkeeper Chen attains a higher position, the Blackwood Group would gain advantages. Zhao Hai might even be able to join the mysterious clan. Zhao Hai wanted to know what kind of family it was.

Zhao Hai hasnt heard of the clan. He thought that the strongest powers in the True Spirit Realm were the Great Sect. But this doesnt seem to be the case. This the strength of the mysterious clan absolutely wouldnt be bad. The fact that Zhao Hai hadnt heard of it was evidence of their power.

Zhao Hai wasnt the kind of person who quickly gave up. He will do the task if he thinks that he could. This time isnt any different. Up until now, people were present in the areas he explored. Therefore, he could collect information from them and a.n.a.lyze the situation of the mountain.

However, the deeper parts of the mountain were devoid of any presence of people. If Zhao Hai entered the deeper mountain, he wouldnt have the means to obtain additional information. He needed to go on his own.

Zhao Hai was very aware of the strength of the demon beasts. If he wants to head into the deeper parts of the mountain, he will need to be extremely careful. If he didnt hide from the demon beasts, he would be in trouble. Dont overestimate Zhao Hais current strength. Even cultivators in the Teleportation Stage or stronger have fallen in the deeper parts of the mountain.

The people looking for the seal in the mountain were also looking for more routes. Now that Zhao Hai had mapped the surrounding area, he knew that the seal wasnt on those routes.

With liquid silver leading the way, Zhao Hai carefully advanced. But because of the s.p.a.ces current level, liquid silvers dust couldnt fly too far. Zhao Hai was distressed about this. Otherwise, he wouldnt have gone deeper into the mountain. He would just send liquid silver and scan through the mountain.

Zhao Hai thought that his levels would no longer matter. But he didnt expect that leveling up would be his biggest desire right now. If he leveled up, the s.p.a.ces capabilities would improve. He needs more treasures of heaven and earth.

Since he needed liquid silver to advance, Zhao Hais speed wasnt fast. He continued to advance and mapped everything he pa.s.sed through. Even with the s.p.a.ce looking for the seal, Zhao Hai still achieved nothing.

Zhao Hai was alone in the depths of the Mountain of Demon Beasts. He cautiously moved forward. He didnt believe that a Clone Stage cultivator from the clan would reach this far into the mountain. But since the seal wasnt in the periphery, Zhao Hai could only head deeper.

Time progressed bit by bit, Zhao Hai spent another half a month in the mountains. Zhao Hai wasnt just blindly seeking. He knew the region where the clans cultivator was killed. From that place, there were several routes that branched outward. Even if the demon beast took the seal, it wouldnt go too far from the route. A demon beast has its own territory. They wouldnt willingly go and cause trouble in another demon beasts domain.

In other words, even if the demon beast took the seal away, they wouldnt be too far. Therefore, Zhao Hai didnt go too far from the known routes.

Even so, Zhao Hai still didnt discover anything. Although he was somewhat worried, there was nothing he could do. He could only push through slowly and patiently.

Time continued to pa.s.s, and it has been three months since Zhao Hai began looking for the seal. However, there were no traces of the seal. Zhao Hai became anxious. He felt that he may have overextended himself this time.
