"It's the Jungle Guardians. As long as these monsters appear, it proves we're very close to where the Lord of the Jungle is located!"
Deep in the dense forest, a group of people hid behind a towering giant tree, peeking out.
The speaker was Zong Muxue, who instantly recognized the identity of those half-human, half-deer monsters ahead.
These monsters are called Jungle Guardians, resembling centaurs, but their lower bodies are deer, as can be distinguished by the antlers on their heads.
Once you see these monsters appear, it indicates that we're almost at the location of the BOSS, the King of the Jungle.
"We've already been searching for five days. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid we won't be able to complete Lin Ye's instructions within the agreed time."
Li Fei frowned slightly.
Lin Ye wanted them to lead the BOSS to the edge of the forest by around the eighth day.
But unexpectedly, their luck was so bad that they just found the BOSS's location now.
"Let's give it a shot. Three days is actually enough time to lead him to the edge of the forest, especially since we've cleared the way of monsters," Zong Muxue said.
"Yes, as long as progress is smooth, our time is still sufficient." An Ying calculated a bit and felt that although the time was tight, it wasn't completely impossible to fulfill the task as agreed.
"Alright, let's begin!" Li Fei nodded in agreement.
Since this is what Lin Ye needs them to do, she will make sure to help Lin Ye succeed!
...
In another world completely different from the forest of perpetual daylight, Lin Ye was moving through the darkness. With each flash, he left a blazing white flame wherever he went.
These clusters, merely fist-sized, scattered countless across this woodland.
After five days of preparation, Lin Ye had almost placed the Undying Holy Fire in every corner of this mountain.
Standing on a dead tree, Lin Ye looked around. In every visible spot, there were flickering dots of flame.
These flames brightened the originally dark and silent mountains.
However, because they were too dispersed, the overall brightness was still insufficient.
"Keep going!"
Lin Ye took a deep breath and then flashed away from his position.
The flames were basically enough, but to be on the safe side, Lin Ye decided to add more flames.
Anyway, Li Fei and the others had just found the BOSS, so there was still plenty of time left for Lin Ye.
"Boom!"
At that moment, a loud noise echoed. Lin Ye did not even glance back; he simply tossed a flame and flashed away immediately.
A moment later, a blade swept across where Lin Ye had previously stood.
A huge shadow appeared at Lin Ye's former position, human-bodied with goat-like hooves, wings on its back, wielding two massive crescent battle blades, emanating a fierce aura.
Having failed to land an attack, he looked up and saw Lin Ye not far away, waving at him.
This provocative gesture further enraged the Dark Night Monarch, who immediately leaped and charged at Lin Ye again.
Yet, it was all in vain.
The Dark Night Monarch's mobility was sufficient to instantly kill an ordinary lord but was like nothing before Lin Ye.
With the flexibility of the Space System, unless Lin Ye deliberately allowed it, no one could possibly hit him.
"Indeed, he's the BOSS. The aggro range is so large, once you get involved, you can't shake him off." Lin Ye remarked.
He had been leading around the Dark Night Monarch for about a day. During this time, no matter how far Lin Ye teleported, this guy would follow the scent and come over.
There's no way to shake him off, so persistent that it's just exasperating.
But this played right into Lin Ye's hands. If the aggro were lost after a while, it would be difficult to lead him to the edge.
Now, Lin Ye basically just needed to ensure he didn't stray too far from the Dark Night Monarch to keep the aggro intact.
This was quite convenient, not requiring Lin Ye to constantly kite and maintain the aggro.
As for Lin Ye, the most important thing right now was still to spread the Undying Holy Fire everywhere.
If the distance is too close, they will cluster together, so he must control the spacing well to deploy as many flames as possible.
He had his reasons for doing this, to kill two BOSSes simultaneously—the preliminary preparations were indeed indispensable.
Yet, the Dark Night Monarch chasing Lin Ye had no clue about what Lin Ye was doing; all he thought of was capturing and smashing this fleeing waste!
...
Three days swiftly passed.
At the junction of the wilderness and the forest, there were earth-shaking sounds and some furious roars, even the sound of trees breaking and collapsing.
Utter chaos!
"Almost at the edge! We're almost successful!" Zong Muen looked at the wilderness not far away with a joyful expression.
During these three days, they were almost chased by the King of the Jungle and his minions all the way.
They could be said to be running for their lives!
Actually, killing this BOSS wasn't difficult for them.
With Lin Ye's Holy Shadow support, the four of them killing a Five-Person Secret Realm level BOSS was ridiculously easy.
However, the difficulty lay in the fact that not only could they not kill the King of the Jungle, but they also had to lead him to the forest edge.
Such an anti-human operation was indeed troubling for them.
Yet, there was no alternative.
Because even if they killed the King of the Jungle, it would be of no use.
Without the Dark Night Monarch being killed at the same time, the Lord of the Jungle would revive.
So even if they attacked the King of the Jungle, it was meaningless, as they couldn't fully kill the King of the Jungle by themselves.
"So what do we do next?" Zong Muxue asked after avoiding the crazily sprouting vines from the ground.
This left the group, including Li Fei, somewhat bewildered.
Yes, what do we do next?
Lin Ye only told them to lead the BOSS to the forest's edge but didn't inform them of what to do next!
But just then, the Holy Shadow, which had been following at the back of the group, suddenly sped up and rushed to the front.
Seeing this, Li Fei immediately understood and shouted, "Follow the Holy Shadow!"
The few people snapped out of it and began to follow the Holy Shadow's lead.
