[But its body is covered in plate-like scales, and when it coils into a certain posture, its life force completely disappears, making it impossible to tell that it is a snake; it is simply a rocky hilltop.]

[Until a winged demon spotted you, it shrieked excitedly and began gliding and swooping down from dozens of miles away, as proud as a petrel battling the sea.]

It glided over an unremarkable rocky hill.

Then the rocky hill deformed and twisted, transforming from a mountain into a snake, as if it had snatched a small sparrow in its jaws and bitten it, with half a feather peeking out from the corner of its snout.

That feathered demon, barely at the late-stage of the Innate Realm... is gone!

That snake was definitely at the Celestial level, an extremely powerful one!

You have begun your wilderness survival challenge on the battlefield of a hundred races.

Two weeks later, you arrived at the meeting point mentioned by the velvety-faced man, Qi Luoer, just in time. It was still over a hundred li away, which wasn't an exaggeration.

Then you encountered an armored demon.

"Little armored demon, watch me capture you with ease!"

[Judging by its size, this armored demon is only in the mid-to-late stage of the Innate Realm. It is covered with layers of iron-like scales. Their characteristic is high defense, but at the cost of reduced agility and low attack power.]

To compensate for their lack of offensive capabilities, they are all equipped with weapons—a gauntlet-like device that transforms into a cone-shaped lance when worn.

[You think killing this guy will guarantee a windfall of rewards? Three hundred years ago, you could easily defeat the Otherworldly Demons, but this Armored Demon is at most a fraction stronger than a newly descended Otherworldly Demon.]

【Bang!】

[As a test, the giant blade of qi slashed out, sending the armored demon flying hundreds of meters before crashing into a ditch.]

[You pressed your advantage... and you saw demons emerging from all around.]

[Additional warning: There's an ambush!]
