The realm of gods.
Having been in this world for almost a month, Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao finally cleared out the small villages around Yuanshan Town on their route northward.
"When we get back to Blue Star, Lin Bai and Brother Qing will definitely be in for a big surprise!"
Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao walked on a narrow path with weeds that were half a person tall on both sides.
Feeling the solidification of his soul body, Chi Chen was also somewhat delighted. In the past month, Chi Chen had gone from the initial stage of the Ascension Realm to almost reaching the peak of the Ascension Realm. If such a speed of improvement were to spread, it would surely astound everyone.
Even Chi Chen himself felt slightly dazed. This speed of advancement was something Chi Chen had never dared to imagine before.
"We're going into that mountain tonight, so we need to speed things up and find a place to rest!"
Looking at a tall mountain peak in the distance, Chi Chen had a vague sense of unease, but there was nothing he could do. If they wanted to head north, they had to cross the mountain called Duan Tian Peak. If they took a detour, it would take Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao at least another month.
Now, there isn't much time for them to take detours.
Therefore, even though there might be dangers within that Broken Sky Peak, Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao had no choice but to bite the bullet and go in.
After all, in the current God Realm, apart from the north mentioned by the God Realm mutant in Yuanshan Town, where is there any safe place?
Therefore, after careful consideration, the two decided to go directly through Broken Sky Peak.
During this time, in the darkness of the God Realm, even outside the village, Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao encountered several waves of attacks from the God Realm's mutants. Fortunately, these attacks were still within their tolerance range, and the two managed to survive one ordeal after another without any real danger, finally arriving at the foot of Broken Sky Peak.
Three hours later, night fell once again in the realm of gods. In Broken Sky Peak, the wind howled, and the tall trees rustled constantly. Under the moonlight, Broken Sky Peak revealed a desolate and eerie atmosphere.
Inside a cave in a rocky cave, the firelight flickered in the cold wind blowing in from the cave entrance. The firelight on the rock wall resembled a ferocious monster, constantly extending its tentacles.
Fortunately, both Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao were experienced in big events, and their determination was beyond doubt. Naturally, they would not be afraid because of this slightly strange scene.
"Alright, we can eat now!"
Chi Chen sprinkled various seasonings on the soul beast meat beside the campfire and handed a huge roasted leg to Hu Miaomiao.
Hu Miaomiao took it with a gleam in her eyes and began to eat it in small bites.
Under the firelight, Hu Miaomiao's face appeared somewhat rosy. Her face, which usually carried a cold and aloof air, now seemed to be filled with a happy smile.
This scene left even the simple-minded Chi Chen somewhat stunned.
Of all the women Chi Chen had ever seen, Hu Miaomiao was definitely one of the two most stunning. The other one, of course, was Nuwa, who was like the most perfect work of art sculpted by heaven and earth.
Hu Miaomiao's face was already as delicate as jade carving without any makeup, especially her bright almond eyes. However, Chi Chen had seen them several times, and each time he saw them, he felt a sense of novelty.
"How come I never noticed how beautiful it was before?!"
Chi Chen mechanically tore off a piece of soul beast meat from his hand and put it in his mouth, muttering something indistinctly, completely unaware of the aggressive gaze he was being directed at.
"What did you say?"
Hu Miaomiao suddenly looked up, her bright, watery eyes meeting Chi Chen's gaze, as if she hadn't clearly heard what Chi Chen had just said.
"Oh? It's nothing. I was just saying there's still plenty of soul beast meat left, eat more!"
The moment their eyes met, Chi Chen felt as if he had been struck by lightning, stiffening for a moment before hastily averting his gaze. Whether it was because he was too close to the campfire or because the cave was too stuffy, Chi Chen felt his cheeks burning hot.
Huh?
Something's not right.
Something seems off about this role. Did they get the wrong script?
Chi Chen was suddenly startled, and then suspiciously glanced at Hu Miaomiao again. Then, Chi Chen saw the slight upturn of the corners of Hu Miaomiao's mouth as she lowered her head to eat meat.
Once again, Chi Chen was mesmerized by the sight. At this moment, Chi Chen felt that the best scenery in the world was the view before him.
It was just a pity about the lizard-like soul beast's corpse that was gradually dissipating inside the cave.
This is absolutely terrible.
It's one thing to be slaughtered and eaten by two strangers who suddenly barge into your territory.
Why should I suffer like this?!
Inside the cave, a deep resentment seemed to be gathering, causing Chi Chen to shiver inexplicably. However, this did not stop Chi Chen from secretly going to see Hu Miaomiao.
Late at night.
Hu Miaomiao leaned against the stone and drifted into a light sleep.
Chi Chen sat down away from the cave entrance and began his night watch.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
Suddenly, Chi Chen's ears twitched as he heard a strange sound coming from outside the cave.
Although the sound was similar to the sound of wind blowing through fruits and leaves, Chi Chen could still tell the difference; it was clearly the sound of an object moving on the ground.
The other person was stepping very lightly on the ground, which is why Chi Chen initially thought it was the sound of leaves falling in the wind.
"What's wrong? Have any mutants appeared?"
Hu Miaomiao's sleep was not deep to begin with. As the sounds outside gradually approached the cave, she sensed them instantly, woke up from her sleep, and came to Chi Chen's side almost without making a sound.
"I don't know, but it doesn't seem like a mutant!"
Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao exchanged a glance, already having a guess in their hearts. This was probably the enemy they would face in the God Realm besides the God Realm mutants, as mentioned by the powerful mutant from Yuanshan Town.
"Let's stay put for now. Before we figure out what it is, it's best to wait for them to come to us!"
After a moment's hesitation, Chi Chen activated the Cloak of Night, instantly enveloping himself and Hu Miaomiao.
Yes, the Divine Night Robe can not only shield Chi Chen's own aura, but under Chi Chen's control, it can also isolate the auras of others, only the other party cannot be too far away from him.
"Swish...swish!"
Outside the cave entrance, the approaching sounds suddenly stopped. The unknown beings outside seemed to be wondering why, although they had clearly sensed two auras inside the cave, they had now completely disappeared.
"Have they left?"
Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao waited for a while, but nothing appeared at the cave entrance, which was a bit strange. Could it be that the other party just left like that?
However, Chi Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. If possible, Chi Chen really didn't want to encounter those unknown beings before reaching his destination. After all, when the God Realm mutant in Yuanshan Town talked about those things, his face was solemn. Therefore, Chi Chen couldn't judge whether he and Hu Miaomiao could fight against them.
But just as Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao relaxed slightly, a dark figure suddenly emerged from the flickering flames on the stone wall behind them and pounced on them like lightning.
"!!!careful!"
When Chi Chen sensed the danger behind him, it was too late to dodge. Just as Chi Chen shouted, the black shadow split in two and pounced on Chi Chen and Hu Miaomiao.
This might be the only chapter today. I'm too tired and can't finish it. Smear me!
