“…”

In the storage space, Zuo Yu sat on the sofa and glanced at Hai Wen outside the bracelet speechlessly.

"I remember you were very brave before, why are you so cautious now?"

"The past was the past, and the present is the present."

Hai Wen shook his head and said calmly: "After you appeared, I understood a truth, that is, talent and potential are not equivalent to future strength. No matter how strong a person's talent is, if he cannot turn his potential into strength, it is just vanity."

"Yulan Continent has a history of nearly ten thousand years, and there are countless geniuses, but only a few have finally reached the pinnacle."

"The remaining geniuses either eventually faded into obscurity for various reasons, or died early and were completely lost in history."

"And now that I know that I am extremely talented, I must not repeat the mistakes of my predecessors. I must move forward steadily and turn my potential into strength in the most reliable way..."

Zuo Yu chuckled when he heard this, and asked without comment: "So, you don't plan to go to the Monster Mountain Range for training?"

Hai Wen shook his head: "I still have to go in, but I hope you can help me and warn me before I get close to the real danger. You should be able to do something of this level, right?"

"Hey, do you trust me that much?"

"No, so I will make my own judgment. Just remind me."

"Really?...Interesting!"

Zuo Yu said with great interest: "Okay, it's rare to see you begging me so much, so I'll help you out with reluctance!"

Haven nodded slightly, then took a step forward and stepped into the endless Monster Mountain Range ahead.

As a Warcraft territory comparable to the Dark Forest on the Magnolia Continent, the area of ​​the Warcraft Mountains is not much smaller than that of a human empire.

After entering the mountain range, you will see ancient trees of hundreds or thousands of years old scattered all around. The thick trunks are like pillars supporting the continuous treetops that block out the sky.

In the ecological niche below the tree canopy, there are also weeds and thorns everywhere.

Countless withered fallen leaves are piled up on the ground. The bottom layer has long been rotten and emits a strange smell, while the top layer is still dry and brittle, and all kinds of rustling sounds will be heard when stepping on it.

"Is this the Monster Mountain Range?"

Haven was wearing a fiery red armor, holding a staff in his left hand and a long sword in his right hand. He was scanning the surrounding environment with a frown.

Suddenly, he raised his left hand and gently waved his staff. A breeze immediately spread out in all directions with him as the center.

Wind magic——Wind of exploration!

Generally speaking, a magician who has been promoted to level three can release the Wind of Detection, but the range of the Wind of Detection at that time is only a dozen meters. For the Warcraft Mountain Range where the forest is too dense and the visibility is no more than ten meters, it can be said to be better than nothing.

But now, the wind of detection released by Haven as a ninth-level magician has a range of ten miles.

In an instant, the shapes of all the wild beasts and monsters within ten miles appeared clearly in his mind.

"Well, within a ten-mile radius, there are thirty-two level one to level two magical beasts, including bubble rabbits, brown squirrels, and earth scorpions, six level three magical beasts, unicorn pigs, and a group of twenty-one wind wolves ranging in level from four to six."

"Now, this group of wind wolves are gradually approaching the six unicorn pigs. They should be planning to surround and hunt them, right?"

Haiwen muttered to himself, restrained his breath, and walked over silently with the shiny long sword in hand.

Soon, Haven appeared on top of a thick tree trunk, standing on a sturdy branch, silently overlooking the hunting scene below.

More than twenty wind wolves surrounded the six unicorn pigs from all directions. The leading one, the level six wind wolf king, stood on a huge rock, staring coldly with his dark green eyes at the six level three unicorn pigs shivering in the center.

Suddenly, the Wind Wolf King tilted his head and growled.

The seven smaller wolves in the wind wolf pack suddenly jumped out, crouched down, landed on all fours, and walked slowly forward, staring at the six unicorn pigs in front of them with bared teeth.

Seeing this scene, Haven suddenly understood.

"So they are training the wolf cubs' hunting abilities. I was wondering why they would mobilize the entire tribe to deal with just six level three monsters."

"However, we can actually see level 6 monsters in such a remote place like the Monster Mountain Range. It seems that the knowledge of the academy about the distribution of monsters in the Monster Mountain Range is still flawed..."

"Well, we must not be careless. The Holy Land monsters are not necessarily all in the depths of the Monster Mountain Range. We may encounter them in the outskirts."

As Haven thought about this, he put the staff in his left hand into the storage bracelet, and jumped down with the long sword in his right hand.

“Puff——”

In an instant, a fiery red figure fell from the sky, and the sharp blade instantly pierced through the forehead of a wind wolf.

Blood splattered everywhere. The young man, who was only about 1.6 meters tall and wearing fiery red armor, drew out his long sword. Ignoring the blood on his cheek, he glanced calmly at the wind wolves around him who were unable to react for a while.

"Come on, let me taste the blood!"

As Haiwen's light words came out, the Level 6 Wind Wolf King was the first to come to his senses and roared angrily.

The twenty wind wolves around all came to their senses, opened their bloody mouths, and attacked Haven angrily. At the same time, hundreds of dark green wind blades appeared in the sky and shot towards Haven.

For a moment, there were dull collision sounds, whistling sounds of air currents, the sound of wind blades cutting through trees, the sound of blades slicing through flesh, and the roar of wind and waves and screams...

All kinds of sounds rang out in this not-so-spacious open space.

But just one second later, all the noise disappeared, leaving only the monotonous and pure sound of the blade entering flesh.

“Puff——”

Another sound of a blade piercing through flesh and blood was heard.

Haiwen drew out the long sword in his hand and looked silently at the level 6 Wind Wolf King lying on the ground in front of him.

Around him, more than twenty wind wolves were lying on the ground in a mess. Most of them had only a penetrating wound on their foreheads, and only a few had their hearts cut. Blood was oozing out of them, gathering into a large pool of blood on the ground.

Haiwen stood in a pool of blood with a knife in his hand, and sighed as he looked at the blood flowing to both sides at his feet due to the breeze.

A group of wind wolves, which are at most level six magical beasts, are naturally nothing to Haven today, but no matter how weak a magical beast is, it is still a living being.

Apart from his great strength, Haiwen is just a child in his early teens in other aspects.

He needed to integrate his own strength through experience and completely adapt to combat and the feeling of being deprived of life.

Otherwise, no matter how powerful he becomes in the future, he will inevitably make low-level mistakes like the one just now.

Thinking of this, Haven turned his head to look at the corpses of several wolf cubs in a pool of blood. They were obviously smaller in size and had their hearts pierced.

It was precisely because he had a moment of hesitation in his heart when dealing with the wolf cub that the stab that was originally intended to pierce through the head turned into a second best option of cutting through the heart.

If not for this, this group of wind wolves should have been dealt with by Haven more cleanly and efficiently, instead of the bloody mess that is now.

"I still need some experience..."

Haiwen murmured a few words in a low voice, then he turned around, looked at the six unicorn pigs crawling on the ground and shivering, and sighed with a complicated expression.

"Sorry, I don't really like wolf meat, so..."

Hai Wen said this regretfully as he walked over with a knife in hand: "I'm sorry to inconvenience you for a while."

…

…

In the blink of an eye, a month passed.

During this month, Haven was active within a hundred miles of the outer periphery of the Monster Mountain Range, successively killing a large number of monsters ranging from level four to level eight, and experienced hundreds of battles of varying sizes.

Although almost all the battles were one-sided, thanks to these monsters, Haven finally adapted to the blood and finally gained the awareness of being a warrior.

His temperament had undergone a drastic change, with a hint of iron and blood.

Not only that, in the process of fighting with the monsters, Haven's understanding of magic and fighting skills is also rapidly improving.

Because his realm had improved too quickly in the past year, Haiwen had only had a cursory look at many intermediate-level magic and fighting skills.

But now, he has integrated his past knowledge in battle. Not only have the four elements of earth, fire, wind and water all been promoted to the ninth level, but he has also taken a further step on the path of a warrior and comprehended a wonderful power called "momentum".

According to Zuo Yu, in this world, there are two conditions for breaking through the holy realm.

One is the accumulation of sufficient fighting spirit, and the other is this state called "momentum".

Now, Hai Wen has mastered his own "momentum", and all he has left to break through the Holy Land is the simple accumulation of fighting spirit.

"Well, it's a great harvest!"

Looking at the magic crystals and monster furs piled up like a mountain in the storage bracelet, Haven couldn't help but smile.

Zuo Yu sensed a hint of his intention to leave from Hai Wen's sigh, and immediately asked in surprise: "You are not planning to go back now, are you?"

Hai Wen said as a matter of course: "I have already mastered the situation. As long as I practice step by step, I can successfully advance to the Holy Realm."

"In that case, of course I have to go back and become a Saint Domain expert first, and then continue exploring this Monster Mountain Range!"

Zuo Yu was disappointed and said, "Isn't this too unambitious?"

Hai Wen said calmly: "You know you can become stronger by following the steps, but you still take the risk alone. This is not ambition, what kind of competition is this!"

"...To be honest, if someone else said this, I would definitely agree, but you?"

Zuo Yu said unhappily, "He is clearly at the peak of level nine. If he plays all his cards, he can even fight against a Saint Realm beginner. This strong man has been wandering in the Magic Beast Mountain Range for a month, but he has only killed a level eight Magic Beast at most."

"If this kind of thing gets out, wouldn't you feel ashamed?"

Hai Wen said without hesitation: "I don't think so."

"..." Zuo Yu frowned, "What about the dragon blood? Don't you want it too?"
