Last night, a blizzard almost buried all the traces of the previous battle.
The biting mountain wind remained cold, the temperature must be around minus seventy to eighty degrees, but only the frightful Ice Spiritual Qi was missing from this wind.
Perhaps this is the biggest difference from the Great Snow Mountain area.
Over at the Great Snow Mountain, once winter arrives, it's a snowy storm all day long, uninterrupted, and hoping to see the sky or the distance is just dreaming.
But here, twenty thousand miles away, when the snow first stops, you can still admire the rare spectacle of a vast snowy night illuminating a solitary cold peak.
Wang Wu wedged himself in a crack in the rock, looking eastward, seeing an endless stretch of mountains, stretching beyond the eye's reach.
And looking west was pitch-black earth, but actually not, for it was all trees, so-called Black Forest.
Elsewhere, trees might grow to one or two hundred meters at most, but the ancient trees here could easily reach one or two thousand meters.
Each ancient tree was a mountain, with layers of branches spreading like a thick layer of earth, completely covering the ground, leaving it dark, whether day or night.
The Black Forest got its name for this reason.
Wang Wu gazed for a long time, and suddenly felt an inexplicable discomfort, as if the entire Black Forest had turned into an indescribable, unnameable maw, waiting to swallow him whole when he entered.
But when he withdrew his gaze and adjusted his breath with closed eyes for a while, the uncomfortable feeling soon disappeared without a trace.
"Could it be my illusion?"
"Is this Black Forest truly so bizarre?"
While pondering, he heard a distinct sound of something breaking through the air, very subtle, almost ninety-nine percent similar to the mountain wind, but Wang Wu immediately noticed it.
Looking up, sure enough, it was Ying Baiyu.
Only, why did it come?
This can't be so uninteresting, in such a dangerous place, as a sentinel, the last thing to do is to leave your post.
"Long nights are dreary, no sleep, do you not agree, Little Xiong Xiong?"
Ying Baiyu actually giggled, its form blurring, transforming from a great white eagle to a proud and graceful lady.
Wang Wu watched without blinking, but did not make a sound, operating the Inner Breathing Technique steadily, making his breath and heartbeat seem non-existent.
He watched for several minutes for free before a vexed voice sounded.
"That's odd, I clearly saw that little bear cub crouching right here before, the position is just right."
"Maybe it's some powerful Invisibility Technique, try feeling around."
As soon as the words were spoken, a hard, seemingly stone-like thing touched up, and Wang Wu remained motionless. Level 15 Passive Concealment already allowed him to blend perfectly with the surroundings, meaning his body felt as cold as the rock.
"Oh? This is really strange! I clearly saw it before, even heard it chatting with those two flashy little female demons! It must still be nearby."
"Shhh! Big Bro, calm down, don't get upset, maybe the little bear cub is eavesdropping on us nearby!"
"Eh, that's a possibility, but if I can't do anything about it, won't I just be angrier then!"
"Stay calm, stay calm, we can wait here. When that flashy little female demon returns, we'll eat it, let's see if the little bear cub won't come out."
"Oh, good plan, brother, you're really smart."
The conversation stopped, but Wang Wu was puzzled. Clearly, these two clever things were right beside him, even heard the conversation with Wolf Bu'er and Ying Baiyu, and even touched him, so why couldn't his Level 15 Danger Perception detect them?
They could even eat Wolf Bu'er.
What exactly are they?
Demon? Impossible.
Spirit? Impossible.
Could it be a monster?
Thinking this way, Wang Wu didn't dare to act rashly either.
He had too little experience.
After waiting for a while, those two smart creatures started whispering again, initially with the elder complaining, the second comforting, then as the second consoled, they started complaining and getting mad, so the elder comforted back, and after a few words, the elder began to complain again, with the second comforting now.
It was quite amusing.
Within their circular comforting, Wang Wu pieced together bits of information intermittently.
Firstly, these two smart beings came from a very far place, seemingly having parents at that time, but somehow lost them, with the elder blaming the second for losing the father, while the second blamed the elder for losing the mother.
Occasionally they would cry sadly, saying there's something bad in the Black Forest wanting to eat them, and then they would hold and comfort each other.
This kind of condition was rarely triggered.
But gradually, Wang Wu heard more startling information, the elder seemingly accidentally ate a Human Race Cultivator and gained unprecedented experiences, while the second particularly liked eating Demons, saying they tasted delicious.
Now they hope to reach Human Race territory to eat and drink their fill and enjoy women.
Their wish was quite pure.
Even the three Human hunters fifty miles away were their targets, and they had been lurking here for several days, but were pre-empted, so now these two had their eyes on Wang Wu's Monster Squad.
So Wang Wu did not dare to make any move. These two clever ones definitely have some strength, they even knew to use a beauty to tempt him just now; it's better not to provoke them.
While he was pondering, he heard a faint sound breaking through the air, coming quickly from afar, it was Wolf Bu'er, running while shouting in a low voice.
"Xiong Wu, Xiong Wu!"
Although it was clearly fake, Wang Wu was still scared stiff. How high is their intelligence? He was thinking, when suddenly another Wolf Bu'er appeared, and this Wolf Bu'er stood in the distance, activating the Wolf Gaze Divine Techniques, seemed to have seen something incredible, and without saying a word, turned around and ran back to the camp.
"Hey, why is this foxy little female demon running away? We didn't eat that little bear! How odd!"
"Maybe it discovered us, no, what are we doing standing here, let's catch it, I want to eat the little female demon!"
As they spoke, the ground trembled, rocks rolled down with a rumble, and the entire mountain seemed to suddenly come to life.
Wang Wu was even more terrified, luckily, he was wedged in that crevice from the start. It now seems he was standing right on top of this Stone Monster's head.
This guy is huge, most of the mountain range is its body, and it even has two heads, one big, one small, with no clear details visible. But Wang Wu watched as Wolf Bu'er fell and was stomped several times by a foot as large as a small mountain, as if a child was playing with ants, even twisting it a few times for good measure, afraid it wasn't dead.
Just as Wang Wu despaired, a flash of white light appeared, and Wolf Bu'er somehow used some method to escape, becoming faster, sprinting out of the range of the Stone Monster's movement, speed truly unmatched.
Anyway, if it were Wang Wu, he definitely couldn't outrun it.
At this time, over thirty miles away, at the camp, Xiong Shiliu, Tiger Vanguard, and others were also alarmed. Upon coming out and seeing, wow, a Stone Monster over a thousand meters tall was thundering towards them, with Wolf Bu'er fleeing desperately.
"It's a Stone Monster! The rarest of the rare! We hit the jackpot, Shi Liu, we need to lure it to Heavenly Dao Mountain, no, we must immediately inform the Mad Tiger King, once we kill this Stone Monster, the Human Race will have nothing to fear!"
Tiger Vanguard shouted excitedly, as if possessed, fearing that Wang Wu far away couldn't hear him.
"Calm down! This is not an adult Stone Monster, it's a juvenile, not so valuable, besides who knows where its parents are, can you bear the responsibility if it lures the adult Stone Monsters?"
Xiong Shiliu said solemnly.
"But, but we can't just watch and let this Stone Monster escape!" Tiger Vanguard was very anxious.
"Calm down, we can't beat it, besides, you and Unbreakable are still injured, forget it, let's meet up with Bu'er, lure this Stone Monster into the Black Forest, these Stone Monsters have always been the Kings of the North Wilderness, who knows how it wandered to the West Wilderness, but undoubtedly, it doesn't like the Black Forest."
Xiong Shiliu quickly made arrangements to meet up with Wolf Bu'er. Avoiding the pursuit of that juvenile Stone Monster by drawing a big circle is still very easy.
Especially when they tried detouring into the Black Forest, that Stone Monster began to curse fiercely, even mockingly sneering, calling them cowards and wimps.
When they saw Xiong Shiliu and others running farther away, it became more furious, cursing as filthily as possible.
Wang Wu truly felt ashamed, Earth's scolding grannies were probably at this level.
Clearly a clumsy Stone Monster, how did it end up with two foul mouths?
Creation is truly mysterious.
Only when Xiong Shiliu and the others all disappeared into the Black Forest did Wang Wu become anxious, realizing the situation was dire.
But what could he do?
Xiong Shiliu and their group were now either injured or weakened, even at peak condition, they couldn't beat these two stone brothers.
But now, stuck on the Stone Monster's head, running away wasn't an option, he couldn't outrun it, really couldn't, this Stone Monster could step a thousand meters in one stride, only a top agility player like Wolf Bu'er could escape.
Perhaps trying a Swift Movement Talisman?
No, too risky, unbeatable, really unbeatable.
How about climbing down silently?
Might be feasible.
But just as he was about to move, the small head of the Stone Monster reached out with a rocky arm, feeling around on top.
"Big brother, guess what, that little bear is scared, it can't help but come out, see if I don't smack it to death, tonight we'll have bear meat pie!"
Wang Wu was speechless, especially seeing the Stone Monster heading straight east, it seemed to be retracing its steps.
If it met Mad Tiger King at Heavenly Dao Mountain, that would be good.
If it dashed into the encirclement of Great Snow Mountain, how could he survive?
No, he had to take a risk.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Wu decided to climb down from the back, Xiong Shiliu and others had set a precedent, as long as he rushed into the Black Forest, the Stone Monster wouldn't pursue, dared not pursue...
Yes, that's the plan!
But just at this moment, Wang Wu finally sensed his Danger Perception howling, he was drenched in sweat.
Because, there was no Stone Monster, no Stone Mountain, but before him, there was indeed a Black Forest, only a few hundred meters away, he was about to step into it.
"You are lost in the Illusion Realm of the Great Illusion King Insect."
"But due to your Demon King Level resistance, thanks to your Ice and Fire Dual Spirit Roots' protection, and your Blood Qi Circulation, at the last moment, you have awakened."
"Your Hallucinogenic Poison Resistance has increased by 3 points, current is 4/100."
"Your Demon Soul was honed and fought in the Illusion Realm, becoming stronger."
"Because you once killed a juvenile Great Illusion King Insect, your chance of being attacked in the Black Forest has risen to 200%!"
