Outside the Great Huang Mountain.

Rapid, heavy footsteps echoed continuously, like rain pelting on fallen leaves.

A burly human extraordinary with bulging muscles was dashing wildly through the forest.

At this moment, his behavior was quite strange. With a joyful expression on his face, his two sturdy arms were raised high, lifting a huge airtight metal box.

This metal box was immense, comparable to a regular shipping container.

If this strong man wasn't an extraordinary with physical enhancement abilities, there was no way he could move this box, let alone carry it while running frantically.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The metal box being held above his head was violently shaking, the sides bulging and then receding.

It continuously produced sounds like thunder, as if something inside was constantly striking against the walls of the box.

"Report to the captain, the mission is accomplished!"

Panting heavily, his muscles tensing all over, the strong man didn't forget to report the situation through his communicator while running.

"Understood, keep moving forward, we're coming to support you right away!"

A hurried response came through the earpiece.

"Understood!"

The strong man gritted his teeth, sweat pouring down like rain, persisting in his run.

No choice, he simply didn't dare to stop!

Who knew if the Black Demon Tiger was already hot on his heels.

After a short while, a buzzing sound came from the sky.

A helicopter quickly approached the strong man, descended in altitude, and landed.

"Captain!"

The strong man, as if relieved of a great burden, exhaled deeply, dropped the metal box onto the ground with a thud, and walked over with a broad smile.

"Haha! Well done, get on quickly, we need to leave immediately to avoid being caught by the Black Demon Tiger!"

The officer sitting in the helicopter was very satisfied, smiling as he patted the strong man on the shoulder, urging him.

Soon, the strong man boarded the helicopter.

After taking off, the metal box on the ground was swiftly hoisted up by special ropes.

"Phew!"

As the strong man leaned against the helicopter, breathing heavily.

"The Black Demon Tiger is already chasing us! It seems the Demon Insect is indeed very important to it!"

"This gamble paid off!"

The officer looked at the footage taken by a micro-drone below, with a smile on his face.

In the video, the Black Demon Tiger was frantically speeding through the forest, looking extremely agitated.

As soon as they captured the Demon Insect, the Black Demon Tiger rushed over in a hurry, indicating it held the Demon Insect in high esteem!

Thinking of this, the officer couldn't help but admire Dean Lin's brilliant decision!

Since discovering traces of the Black Demon Tiger, the Qin Army of West Spirit City had been ordered to monitor it.

Over time, they naturally discovered the existence of the Bloodthirsty Gu.

Upon realizing that the Black Demon Tiger often dispatched the Demon Insect.

They specifically assigned a micro-drone to monitor it.

It was found that the Demon Insect foraged in the Great Huang Mountain, draining countless fierce beasts, and would periodically return to the Black Demon Tiger's side.

Even though the role of the Demon Insect was unknown, the Qin Army reported the matter in full.

This lead immediately caught the attention of Dean Lin.

Previously, it was unclear how to lure the Black Demon Tiger into Changbai Mountain, but now a handle was finally found.

Dean Lin believed that this Demon Insect must be very important to the Black Demon Tiger, thus crafting a plan to capture the Demon Insect and lure the Black Demon Tiger.

As long as the gamble was right, the Black Demon Tiger would certainly be drawn into Changbai Mountain.

What if the gamble was wrong and the Demon Insect wasn't important to the Black Demon Tiger?

Then they'd think of other methods. Time couldn't be delayed any longer!

The mere thought of that Thunder Tiger made Dean Lin's heart pound. If things continued this way, the opponent might advance further, and the outcome would be uncertain then.

To successfully capture the Demon Insect, the Qin Army even used a special alloy as material, paying a hefty price to craft this metal box.

They aimed to lure the Demon Insect into this metal box and capture it.

This special alloy was recently synthesized by the Great Qin Empire, exceedingly precious, and harder than any known material in the world.

After countless experiments, almost no fierce beast could damage this alloy.

And indeed, it proved successful. Once that ferocious Demon Insect entered the metal box, it couldn't escape.

No matter its bronze teeth or iron mouth, it was helpless.

"Roar!"

Soon after the helicopter took off, a strong wind swept through the forest, and a massive figure emerged from the mountain.

Fang Yuan finally charged over, menacing and frenzied, letting out a furious roar toward the helicopter.

"Damn humans, I knew it was your doing!"

"Daring to snatch away my Bloodthirsty Gu, it's an unforgivable crime!"

Glancing at the metal box the helicopter was hoisting, Fang Yuan cursed inwardly, and with a thought, a blood-colored bone spear shot forth.

Whoosh!

The bone spear transformed into a streak of blood-colored light, cutting through the air, causing a whistling wind, aiming directly at the ascending helicopter!

But the humans were prepared!

Knowing that the Black Demon Tiger had long-range attack capabilities, the Qin Army naturally took precautions.

A wind attribute extraordinary took action.

As the blood light approached the helicopter, a cyan wind wall materialized, blocking it below!

Boom!

The blood-colored bone spear, due to the long distance, lost much of its force, and upon colliding with the wind wall, rebounded, while the wind wall dispersed upon impact.

The wind attribute extraordinary inside the helicopter grunted and turned pale, evidently not feeling well.

Fortunately, the attack was deflected.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the helicopter flew higher and higher, quickly moving out of Fang Yuan's attack range.

"Damn it!"

Watching the helicopter fade into the distance, Fang Yuan was infuriated.

This time, the humans had struck Fang Yuan right at his weak spot, knowing that the Bloodthirsty Gu was crucial for his progress.

Without the aid of the Bloodthirsty Gu, his cultivation speed would drop by at least fifty percent!

If he couldn't retrieve the Bloodthirsty Gu, Fang Yuan would be exasperated to the point of spitting blood.

Boom!

The next moment, black light swirled around Fang Yuan, who used his talent ability. With a fierce stomp of his limbs, dirt scattered, and he vanished into the forest as a shadow.

"Has the Black Demon Tiger given up?"

The strong man stuck his head out, looking back, and was puzzled when he didn't see the Black Demon Tiger chasing them.

Is it possible that the Demon Insect was not that important to the Black Demon Tiger?

"No, it's closing in on us, likely trying to conceal its movements, not wanting us to notice!"

An extraordinary who had kept his eyes closed spoke calmly.

"Did you sense it?"

The strong man was a bit surprised, knowing that the other was an extraordinary with sensing abilities.

"Yes, this beast is pursuing us closely, just below us. Don't lower the altitude, to avoid being ambushed!

The extraordinary with sensing abilities opened his eyes, nodded, and reminded the pilot.

"Understood!"

The pilot at the front gave a gesture to the back.

"The Black Demon Tiger has indeed taken the bait!"

Upon hearing this, the squad leader felt a surge of joy in his heart.
