Chen Chu paused as he looked at the three people approaching, a little surprised: "Squad leader, Lin Yu."

Similarly, Lin Xue, who had not expected to run into Chen Chu, was surprised and asked, "Chen Chu, didn't you just enter the mountain range this morning? Why are you back so soon?"

Chen Chu smiled and said, "I'm lucky today. I encountered a level 4 mutant beast a few hundred kilometers away. I killed it easily, but it was a bit troublesome to bring it back."

"It took me almost half a day to drag the mutant corpse back, and then I used the contribution to exchange for a few anti-gravity disks, which will be much more convenient for me next time."

...The fourth-level mutant beast was killed easily. Lin Xue looked up at the sky and didn't want to talk to Chen Chu for a while.

At this time, Lin Yu smiled gently: "Chen Chu, let me introduce you, this is the third-year senior sister Lin Mei, senior sister, this is my sister's classmate Chen Chu."

"...Lin Mei, the senior sister Lin Mei who is ranked 35th on the third-grade genius list." Chen Chu was a little surprised and turned to look at the smiling woman beside him.

This senior schoolmate was at least 1.8 meters tall wearing combat boots. She had a tall and well-proportioned figure and a delicate face, especially her beautiful phoenix eyes, which were narrow, long and bright, making people unable to help but take a second look.

She was wearing a set of extraordinary armor made mainly of tiny black scales. It had a handsome shape, mysterious patterns flowing on it, and emitted a circle of black and gold halo.

The most important thing was that when Chen Chu noticed her, he keenly felt a hidden, heavy and terrifying aura from her.

This senior is very strong! Chen Chu's eyes narrowed slightly.

Lin Mei smiled and said, "I finally meet the real person. Brother Chen Chu, you are so amazing. You have already made it to the thousandth place on the performance list on the second day after arriving at the Alien Beast Battlefield."

Chen Chu said politely: "No, my grades are far behind those of my senior sister."

Lin Mei is not only on the third-grade genius list, but is also in the top 50 on the battle record list. Although her cultivation is only in the late fifth level, her combat power has definitely reached the sixth level.

However, Chen Chu was not familiar with her, so he prepared to leave after saying hello.

"Class monitor, classmate Lin Yu, senior sister, I have something else to do so I will leave first. See you later."

"Goodbye, junior."

Watching Chen Chu leave, Lin Mei said thoughtfully, "This junior seems to be going down the mountain. He's ready to enter the mountain range again right after he came back?"

Lin Xue nodded: "It should be out."

"Although this guy usually looks quite stable, he is actually determined and full of adventurous spirit. He must want to kill more mutant beasts to accumulate contribution points when he first comes in."

"Xiaoxue, you seem to know this junior very well." Lin Mei smiled.

"...What, what do you mean by understanding? We are classmates. It's normal to know his personality, isn't it?" Lin Xue explained calmly.

Lin Mei smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's normal."

As for Lin Yu who was standing aside, he had a gentle smile on his face and said nothing.

…

Speeding at a subsonic speed of 200 meters per second, Chen Chu quickly crossed more than 500 kilometers and arrived at the longitudinal end of the Jiuhuan Mountains before dark.

The footsteps stopped at the edge of the cliff.

On the opposite side is the even more dangerous Misty Mountains.

It stretches for more than 2,000 kilometers in depth and thousands of kilometers in width, and is located in the middle and rear part of the alien beast battlefield.

This cliff is like a dividing line. On the opposite side are continuous mountains, canyons and gullies, towering ancient trees hundreds of meters high, and countless mutant creatures hidden everywhere.

In addition, with clouds and fog surrounding it and magnetic field fluctuations in space, even the space-based eye cannot monitor it.

Therefore, ordinary students of the third and fourth levels will not cross this line.

Chirp!

In the sky, a black bird with a wingspan of more than 40 meters pierced through the clouds and descended from the sky. In an instant, it fell into the distant forest leaving an afterimage.

Immediately afterwards, the ancient tree shook, and a mutant beast's roar and scream sounded. Then Chen Chu saw the mutant giant bird soaring into the sky.

In its thick and sharp claws was a mountain-pushing beast that was nearly ten meters long and shaped like a wild boar, but with a thick layer of armor on its back and fangs several meters long.

However, the mutant beast had its skull pierced by its sharp claws and was killed instantly.

Chen Chu narrowed his eyes slightly when watching this scene, because these winged mutant creatures are very troublesome. They have the advantage in the air and can leave when they want to and stay when they want to, unless their wings are broken in the first place.

Just as Chen Chu stood on the edge of the cliff, overlooking the Yunwu Mountains opposite, a team walked out of the woods opposite the cliff.

This is a five-member team, three men and two women.

The two men were dragging the corpse of a huge mutant beast, one in front and one behind, which was more than 28 meters long, shaped like an ancient Tyrannosaurus Rex and covered with red scales.

Judging from its size and the aura it emanated after death, the mutant beast was either at the peak of level five or the early stage of level six.

Similar to the mutant creatures in the ocean, many mutant beasts on land also have large differences in body length between the same levels due to different biological species, just like snakes.

Suddenly Chen Chu's expression became a little solemn. This team is very strong.

At this time, six anti-gravity disks were placed in front and behind the mutant beast's corpse. The flashing black halos offset half of its body weight.

In addition, as they were suspended half a meter above the ground, those people were moving very fast and soon they rushed up along the slope of the nearby ridge.

When they saw Chen Chu wearing dark red armor on the edge of the cliff, several people ignored him and continued on their way, dragging the mutated dragon beast with an astonishing aura.

But just after they walked a short distance, the black-haired young man in the lead suddenly turned around and said loudly: "Student, it looks like you are planning to set up camp nearby?"

"...I have this plan." Chen Chu paused, not expecting the other party to speak, and then nodded.

The black-haired young man kindly reminded: "We are close to the Cloudy Mountains. There are dangers lurking everywhere at night. I suggest you find a cave or a hidden place to rest, and try not to light a fire."

Chen Chu nodded politely: "Thanks for the reminder."

Seeing this, the black-haired young man nodded kindly, then continued walking forward.

After the group walked a few kilometers and came to the foot of the mountain, the girl in red armor couldn't help but wonder: "Changkong, why did you remind that person just now?"

Ji Changkong smiled slightly: "We are all students, it's okay to give a kind reminder."

The burly young man holding the dragon beast's head laughed and said, "Changkong, Zhang Ling means why did you notice him?"

The other girl nodded: "Yes, we have been in the Alien Beast Battlefield for more than a year, and we have encountered so many cultivators when we go in and out of the mountains. This is the first time you have taken the initiative to remind others."

Facing this question, Ji Changkong smiled and said, "Because the people I met before all traveled together, they would arrange people to keep watch when they set up camp at night, so there is no need to remind them."

"As for the student just now, he hasn't been tainted by the scent of the wild forest yet. He must have just arrived at the alien beast battlefield and may not be very familiar with the situation here, so I gave him a friendly reminder."

"Besides, when you go out, you have more friends and more paths to take. Maybe the good relationship I made today will bring me other benefits in the future, such as helping me out when I'm in danger one day."

puff!

Zhang Ling, who was wearing red armor, couldn't help laughing: "Changkong, you are the most evil genius in our Nantian Martial Arts High School, the number one in the second grade, and your strength is stronger than most of the third graders."

"If you are in danger in this situation, how can that person who is supposed to be a freshman catch up with you and help you?"

Ji Changkong shook his head slightly: "Zhang Ling, your idea is not right. The so-called evildoers are just cultivators who are one step faster than humans in the early stage."

"Maybe one day our cultivation will stagnate and we will be stuck in one realm for ten years without being able to break through."

"Besides, we are all human beings. Who can be sure that none of our classmates will make great progress in ten years and eventually surpass us?"

"Besides, that classmate dared to go deep into the mountains alone, so he must be very strong. Maybe he is the demon freshman of this class, so he should not be underestimated."

"For example, the junior student named Li Hao whom I met a few days ago, if his crazy and domineering power breaks through the fourth level, you, Zhang Ling, may not be his opponent."

When Zhang Ling heard Ji Changkong mention the crazy 'young man' who was as burly as a giant and carried a steel pillar to smash a late-stage fourth-level mutant beast to death, the smile on her face paused.

The most important thing was that the young man was covered in blood and was seriously injured, but the crazy and devilish aura on his body made her, a person in the late fourth level, frightened.

Zhang Ling smiled awkwardly and said hesitantly, "That person just now can't be that strong, right? There are so many evildoers now, right?"

"Who knows?"

Ji Changkong smiled, but he didn't say out loud what was in his mind: "It's not that he may be as strong as Li Hao, but that he is stronger than Li Hao," for fear of discouraging these good friends.

Perhaps it was the induction between geniuses. When Ji Changkong saw the figure standing on the edge of the cliff, he vaguely felt that the classmate was very strong.

Although his approximate level of cultivation could not be sensed because he had not released any true energy, the "power" radiating from within could not be concealed.

That is a kind of "spirit" that only the strong have, the invisible power accumulated by killing opponents time and time again with invincible force.

Just as the group of people going down the mountain were talking about Chen Chu, Chen Chu on the cliff was also watching them go away, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

The young man just now was very strong!

With his keen perception, Chen Chu felt that only the young man among the five people gave him a slight sense of danger, which meant that his fighting ability was at least not weaker than his current one.

As for the other four, there was no reaction, indicating that their strength was average.

Chen Chu sighed: "It's worthy of being a battlefield for exotic beasts, there are geniuses everywhere." After saying that, he leaped up and jumped directly off a cliff hundreds of meters high.

And this time he did not grab the rock wall to slow down his fall, but fell directly from a great altitude.

boom!

Chen Chu, surrounded by black and red true energy, fell to the ground like a meteorite. In an instant, a deep pit several meters in size was created in the ground, and his legs sank into the ground.

Chen Chu pulled out his legs, looked up at the cliff above his head as if nothing had happened, and a smile appeared on his face.

Under normal circumstances, not to mention the fourth level, even a fifth level cultivator wouldn't dare to just jump off a cliff that's hundreds of meters high, otherwise he would be injured by the shock if he didn't die.

But Chen Chu is different. Just this morning, his physical fitness broke through one thousand due to the growth of his clone, and the density of his body became even more terrifying.

Coupled with the defense of the armor and the dragon elephant power, jumping down just now only made his blood boil.

Whoosh! Chen Chu's figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye he turned into a black shadow and rushed into the Yunwu Mountains and disappeared.

night!

Chen Chu found a dry 'small' cave to live in, and by the way, he crushed the cave owner, a seven-meter-long mutant creature, to death and threw it out.

Chen Chu sat cross-legged in the dark cave, placing the Eight Desolations Battle Halberd on one side, and then devoted half of his mind to sensing the surroundings and began to practice.

With his current strength, it won't be a problem if he is careful in the Yunwu Mountain Range.

Especially with an agility of over 800, his speed is no less than that of advanced practitioners who major in agility and speed. Even if he encounters danger and cannot defeat it, he can still escape.

However, Chen Chu was awakened after practicing for only a short while, and he opened his eyes to look outside.

In his perception, a powerful mutant creature just "walked by" a hundred meters away. Although it restrained its breath, Chen Chu still sensed the invisible sense of danger it emanated.

Soon, the screams and wails of a mutant beast were heard in the distance.

Compared to the daytime, the mountains at night are home to mutated creatures.

A meter-long centipede crawled through the bushes, and was suddenly held down by sharp claws that shot out from above its head, and was swallowed by the huge creature in one gulp.

A fist-sized flying insect landed on a basin-sized flower. As it sucked nectar, the flower suddenly contracted, wrapping the flying insect and slowly corroding it.

In the forest, several gray wolves, each more than six meters long, slowly approached a spiny-horned boar that was feeding under a tree.

As biological mutations occur, plants are also mutating, so even if their bodies become larger, these omnivorous creatures can still grow by eating fat roots or plants to fill their stomachs.

Of course, they prefer to eat the flesh and blood of other mutant creatures because it is more nutritious.

At this time, the three forest gray wolves were already more than ten meters away. They suddenly let out a ferocious howl, and their figures shot out from behind the big tree and pounced fiercely on the spiny-horned boar.

But just as the mutant boars screamed and wailed, a larger mutant creature set its sights on them...

The forest in the dark night seemed to have awakened, with screams and roars everywhere. The power emitted by some mutant beasts at the end of the sky even made the mountains shake, the sound was terrifying.

In addition to these powerful mutant creatures, there are more first and second level mutant creatures.

These creatures crawled out from their hiding places during the day, some foraging for food, some hunting, forming a complete low-level mutant ecological chain.

As for the advanced mutant creatures, they rarely eat and one meal lasts for a long time. They mainly absorb energy from heaven and earth.

The clones that digest what they eat and grow rapidly by eating crazily are just exceptions.

At the entrance of the cave, Chen Chu, holding a halberd, looked at everything happening in the forest in the distance with a calm expression.

There seemed to be a terrifying and ferocious dragon aura emanating from him, and his invisible power made many mutant beasts and creatures that had originally targeted him choose to retreat in the end.

Soon a night passed, and when the sunlight from the sky penetrated the invisible fog and shone through, the forest, which had been noisy all night, returned to silence again.

Chen Chu also set out again, restraining his breath and wandering around the outskirts of the Yunwu Mountains. After crossing a small mountain range, he finally found his prey.

In the morning, on the hillside, a mutant fox with a body length of more than 20 meters, a blue body and three tails was lazily lying on the grass basking in the sun.

A faint ice-blue halo circulated around it, and wherever it passed, the grass and trees within a few meters around it were covered with a layer of frost.

The mutant beast with the ability of ice actually likes to bask in the sun, and its mutation method is becoming more and more strange.

With a sigh, Chen Chu, wearing armor and holding the Eight Desolations Halberd, slowly walked out of the forest in the distance.

Suddenly, the three-tailed blue fox raised its head slightly, its soft blue fur moving without wind, and its eyes looked cold and cruel as it approached Chen Chu.

Roar! The mutant beast roared and stood up suddenly.

Because a black and red light gradually emanated from Chen Chu's body, a heavy and terrifying aura of power spread out, pressing the surrounding air to solidify and the ground to sink.

Just as Chen Chu approached within fifty meters of it, the three tails behind the three-tailed blue fox danced and a strong blue halo burst out from its body.

The blue halo contained astonishing coldness. Wherever it passed, the ground within a radius of more than ten meters was frozen, and the grass and trees solidified, instantly forming an icy world.

This mutant beast is showing its strength in this way, warning Chen Chu, who exudes a dangerous aura, not to come any closer.

Talented energy type?

There are many directions of mutation for mutant beasts. Some have strong physical bodies, while others evolve into other forms or have creatures with ordinary physical bodies but the talent to control energy.

Unfortunately, this early level five mutant beast was not enough to stop Chen Chu.

Looking at Chen Chu who still didn't stop, the three-tailed blue fox showed a ferocious look in its eyes. In an instant, blue light flashed on its body, and more than a dozen ice spikes several meters long condensed in the air.

The icicles were like ice spears, shooting out at terrifying subsonic speeds in an instant, and appeared above Chen Chu's head in the blink of an eye with a piercing scream.

boom!

Chen Chu swept the halberd in his hand, and a circle of black and red light burst out in an instant. Wherever it passed, it was like an expanding wall that crushed all the attacking ice.

After sweeping across the world with one strike, Chen Chu took a deep breath, and in an instant, the endless terrifying power in his body was released.

boom!

The fusion of physical strength and dragon-elephant true power transformed into a flaming black and red domineering aura that surrounded the body. The invisible breath exploded the surrounding air and set off rolling air waves.

Boom! The ground exploded.

roar!

The moment Chen Chu disappeared, the three-tailed blue fox's fur instantly stood up. Sensing the strong breath of death, its three tails emitted a dazzling blue light.

Whoosh! The materialized blue cold air rushed in all directions like a gust of air, freezing the air wherever it passed, covering an area of ​​dozens of meters.

Under the all-round and indiscriminate large-scale attack, Chen Chu, who was approaching the mutant blue fox by ten meters at supersonic speed, was unable to avoid it.

Even though he had black and red energy protecting his body, the chill still penetrated the energy and formed a layer of frost on the surface of his armor, and even seeped through the armor and invaded his body.

Bang!

Surrounded by black and red light, Chen Chu was extremely domineering. The hot blood in his body instantly shattered the frost on the armor, and then he soared into the sky.

At the moment when Chen Chu jumped up a hundred meters, a three-dimensional iceberg covering an area of ​​more than thirty meters and more than twenty meters high appeared below.

In the center of the iceberg is the mutant blue fox emitting a cold blue light.

However, the explosion of its power did not freeze Chen Chu, but instead locked itself in the iceberg.

At this time, a large area of ​​black and red light surrounded Chen Chu in the air, like a demon god. The black and red light on the halberd in his hand flickered and fell down with a bang.

In an instant, the world in the eyes of the three-tailed blue fox changed color.

boom!

The moment the halberd wrapped in black and red light fell on the iceberg, sharp black and red halberd edges exploded, instantly forming a crying, hideous ghost face.

Then there was an explosion of power.

Boom! Instantly, the entire frozen world collapsed, the ice exploded, and the terrifying halberd pierced through everything with terrifying power, like a rainbow of light that smashed the skull of the mutant beast inside, killing it instantly!

Bang! Chen Chu's heavy figure fell on the ice several meters high. He was surrounded by black and red light, holding a halberd, exuding a terrifying aura.

At his feet, the corpse of a three-tailed blue fox, which was huge in size and almost thirty meters long including its tail, lay quietly in the ice. Blood gushed out of its head, dyeing the surrounding ice red.
