The darkness in the forest covered by night seems even thicker and heavier.
There were at least fifty or sixty teams entering the Myriad Beasts Mountains that day, and at first they could still encounter other teams.
When the teams met in the Myriad Beasts Mountains, both sides remained on high alert, fearing that the other side would suddenly attack and kill and rob.
Mo Huanyan and the others had a very clear goal. They just picked up any medicinal herbs they encountered along the way and had no intention of looking for them.
Jiang Zhao led the way and picked some spiritual herbs along the way. Although the five-person team members did not urge them, their faces were filled with anxiety.
On the way, they encountered two huge ferocious beasts. After the six people worked together to kill them, Jiang Zhao put them into the storage bag.
As the night grew darker, Jiang Zhao suggested finding a cave to spend the night.
In the five-man team, the young man named Yan Zichen said impatiently, "Friend Lu, can't we travel overnight? We still have the energy."
Mo Huanyan spoke first, "Junior Brother Yan, traveling at night in the Myriad Beasts Mountains is ten times more dangerous than during the day."
Yan Zichen opened his mouth, lowered his head, and muttered softly, "But I'm really worried about Senior Brother Qin."
Mo Huanyan patted Yan Zichen on the shoulder and said, "I am also worried about Junior Brother Qin, but I am also responsible for your safety."
Jiang Zhao said nothing and led a team of five to find a small cave.
Pushing aside the weeds covering the cave entrance, Cang Cang stood up from beside Jiang Zhao's neck, stretched his body, shook his furry hair, bent down and jumped down, then dived into the cave.
The five-member team was frightened by the black hair on Jiang Zhao's neck that suddenly stood up, thinking that Jiang Zhao was going to kill them.
Especially Tang Xiao, the only female in the team, screamed in panic.
Kong Ji'an, who was beside Tang Xiao, came to his senses and quickly covered Tang Xiao's mouth with his hand. Screaming in the Mountains of Ten Thousand Beasts and attracting powerful and ferocious beasts was not a wise move.
"Don't be afraid, Junior Sister Tang, it's Fellow Daoist Lu's spirit pet." Mo Huanyan reminded.
He was standing next to Jiang Zhao and could see most clearly a spiritual pet coiled around his neck.
Monks who have spiritual pets often have double combat power, and the bonus brought by the spiritual pets is no worse than that of monks of the same strength level.
Tang Xiao's eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Mo Huanyan eagerly, feeling extremely aggrieved.
"I'm sorry, Brother Lu, I didn't mean to offend you. I'm just... just afraid of furry things." Tang Xiao explained to Jiang Zhao.
This was the first time Jiang Zhao had seen a woman who was afraid of soft and cute creatures. After all, furry creatures were more popular.
"Maybe my pet is too dark and ugly, so it scared you."
Recalling the black ball and its true appearance, Jiang Zhao smiled apologetically. There was nothing he could do about it being ugly. After all, it was his spiritual pet, and he couldn't throw it away no matter how ugly it was.
“Roar…”
Cang Cang, who quickly emerged from the cave, growled in displeasure when he heard Jiang Zhao's words.
Jiang Zhao laughed and stretched out his hand to catch Cang Cang who was rushing towards him. He exerted force with his hands and rubbed the furry black ball fiercely.
Tang Xiao shrank back behind Kong Ji'an in fear, but her eyes were fixed on Cang Cang in Jiang Zhao's hand, fearing that the other party would suddenly attack her and open his bloody mouth.
Cang Cang grinned at Tang Xiao and stretched out a furry little paw to scare Tang Xiao, but was slapped away by Jiang Zhao.
"Stop messing around. Are there any other ferocious beasts in the cave?" Jiang Zhao stopped Cang Cang and asked about the situation in the cave.
Cang Cang shook his head and roared twice. Jiang Zhao nodded and understood that it was an abandoned cave.
After clearing away the weeds near the cave, Jiang Zhao entered the cave first.
The dark cave was a little damp, and the walls were covered with vines, on which grew bright red fruits.
Soon a bonfire was lit in the cave, and several people sat around it. Cang Cang lay on Jiang Zhao's lap, looking at everyone with his round eyes.
Gao Leiyi, who had been silent in the team, stood in front of the vines, looking at the red fruits hesitantly.
"Senior Brother Mo, can these fruits be eaten?" Gao Leiyi asked in a low voice.
Mo Huanyan glanced at the vines and said, "Both the vines and the fruit are extremely poisonous."
Gao Leiyi seemed frightened. He jumped back and hurried back to the campfire. He asked nervously, "Will we be poisoned to death here?"
Jiang Zhao looked at the five-member team with some amusement. Why did each of them act like rookies, so anxious and clueless?
Mo Huanyan sighed and said, "I usually tell you to read more books and identify objects, but you don't listen. Now you ask such questions. If Master finds out, he will punish you again."
Gao Leiyi snorted twice with a look of dissatisfaction on his face, but didn't dare to say a word more.
"I will keep watch tonight. You should quickly recover your consumed spiritual energy and strive to enter the depths of the mountains tomorrow."
Mo Huanyan looked at everyone and spoke.
Jiang Zhao had no objection and closed his eyes to enter the Juntian Tower to practice.
Cang Cang lay on Jiang Zhao's lap very consciously, continuing to stare at everyone with his bright eyes.
Tang Xiao was afraid of the furry Cang Cang, who was the farthest away from the campfire. When Cang Cang's eyes fell on Tang Xiao, Tang Xiao couldn't help but shudder.
When the entire cave fell into silence, the roars of beasts coming from the distant mountains and forests became clearer.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
Heavy footsteps sounded outside the cave, causing the entire cave to shake violently.
Immediately afterwards, dozens of long and sharp beast roars were heard outside the cave.
Apart from the silence inside the cave, the forest outside is extremely lively.
