53: Chapter 51 Beast Horde! Encounter [Second Update]

Fang Yu, Bai Chen, and the others advanced all the way, deliberately avoiding the water sources, so they encountered very few Vicious Beasts. Even when they did, they were basically low-level Vicious Beasts, posing little threat to them.

After parting ways with Zhang Tao and the others, they advanced another few kilometers, getting closer and closer to the base.

"Hm?"

Fang Yu, walking at the very front of the team, suddenly heard a faint sound coming from his ear. He gave a look of signal to Bai Chen and the others behind him, gently exerting force with his legs and leaping.

He jumped onto a large tree.

After several consecutive leaps.

"Hm? A beast herd?" Fang Yu's eyes lit up.

I saw that under the cliff hundreds of meters away, a small waterfall churned to form a small pool of water. Dozens of Vicious Beasts were playing and frolicking on the grass near the pool. The skin of these Vicious Beasts was mainly black with silver patterns, and their pupils were glowing with a golden color. They were precisely the Leiyin Leopard, a type of feline Vicious Beast, named because their roars sounded like thunder.

"Leiyin Leopard? So many Leiyin Leopards?" Fang Yu's eyes lit up.

The Leiyin Leopard belongs to the weaker side among feline Vicious Beasts. Adult individuals can generally reach Level 19 and above, and some with extraordinary talent and good Luck can even reach Level 25 and above.

With so many Leiyin Leopards, they definitely belong to an overlord-level beast herd in this area.

Just like human Martial Artists have huge gaps in personal talent and strength, Vicious Beasts are the same. Many Vicious Beasts with ordinary Bloodline genes keep growing and eventually grow into a 'Great Demon'.

Swoosh!

Fang Yu flashed a few times, returned to his teammates, and directly spoke: "Captain, it's a Leiyin Leopard herd..."

Hearing this, Bai Chen, Xia Yao, and the others all lit up. They successively leaped onto the trees. Martial Artists have extremely good vision. Standing on the large trees, they could see everything clearly even a kilometer or two apart.

After everyone saw it clearly.

The crowd descended from the trees and gathered once more.

"It's a Leiyin Leopard herd. Fang Yu's hearing is really good, hearing it from so far away." Xia Yao said pleasantly: "I just took a rough look, and preliminarily judged that there are three leaders at the head, which should all be around Level 22, at most Level 23. There are also about twenty around Level 20, and the rest are just small beasts, nothing to worry about."

"With so many Leiyin Leopards, and their strength generally above Level 19, which is much stronger than normal circumstances, some kind of Heaven And Earth Treasure must have been nurtured around this area." Xia Yao said solemnly.

Everyone couldn't help but nod.

Take Fang Yu for example; the reason he was so joyful after seeing so many Leiyin Leopards was because he guessed there should be treasures around.

Vicious Beasts like to gather near Heaven And Earth Treasures precisely because they eat them too. After eating the treasures, their strength will gradually improve.

"Shall we make a move?" Bai Chen asked.

"Let's make a move." Xiong Meng said quite excitedly: "There are no particularly strong Vicious Beasts. We can completely wipe out the majority of them. Previously, we couldn't find so many weak Intermediate Vicious Beast herds even if we wanted to."

"So many Leiyin Leopards are enough for us to get a large amount of primal points." Xia Yao said excitedly.

"Xiong Meng will also directly join the battle." Qin Yang slowly said: "I will strive to instantly shoot and kill two leaders."

"Can do." Fang Yu also nodded.

Everyone reached a consensus.

In the past few days, the Level 20+ Vicious Beasts they had been searching for were mostly single or in pairs.

It was hard to find.

If Vicious Beasts gather, like the Iron-thread Snake herd, they usually have powerful Vicious Beasts of Level 25 and above to lead them. Fighting with Vicious Beasts of this level requires taking huge risks.

A beast herd generally around Level 20, with the highest no more than Level 23? Such an opportunity is too rare.

Xia Yao and Xiong Meng both put down their backpacks.

Very soon.

Everyone in the Chiyan Team only carried weapons. Under Bai Chen's command, they hid in the grass and slowly passed through the grass to approach that Leiyin Leopard herd.

Vaguely forming an encirclement.

"Remember."

"Qin Yang attacks first." Bai Chen said in a low voice: "Regardless of whether we can kill them or not, Fang Yu and I will charge at the strongest Leiyin Leopard leaders."

"Qin Yang, you will subsequently target those ordinary adult Leiyin Leopards."

"Xiong Meng, you are responsible for containment."

"Xia Yao, pay attention to safety."

"Understood." Everyone responded one after another. In their team, although Xiong Meng's life level was slightly higher than Fang Yu's, his physical technique had not reached Micro-consummation, so in a real life-and-death battle, he was inferior to Fang Yu.

The only ones who dared to frontal charge the beast herd were Fang Yu and Bai Chen.

"Take the arrow as the signal!" Bai Chen ordered, and a group of people were quietly waiting.

Qin Yang raised the heavy bow.

Drawing the bow like a full moon!

Whoosh!

The metal arrow was like a rolling thunder, roaring across the sky, tearing through the air, and crossed more than sixty meters almost instantly, instantly hitting the largest Leiyin Leopard leader.

The arrowhead plunged fiercely into its skull!

"Boom~" A large amount of fresh blood instantly exploded and splashed from the Leiyin Leopard leader's head. Its figure staggered and bounced, but then it wobbled and fell to one side.

"Howl! Howl!" The Leiyin Leopard herd, which had been leisurely playing and resting, instantly blew up. A large number of adult Leiyin Leopards roared wildly, gathering towards the leaders, and at the same time looking in the direction where the arrow came from.

Almost at the exact same instant.

"Swoosh!"

It was another sharp whistling sound of metal tearing through the air. Another arrow fiercely plunged into the body of another Leiyin Leopard leader. However, although the interval between Qin Yang's two arrows was extremely short, there was still a slight time gap after all. This arrow only hit the hind leg of this Leiyin Leopard leader, which was not too fatal.

And Qin Yang's position was finally exposed.

"Roar~"

"Howl!" Both Leiyin Leopard leaders were completely enraged, letting out earth-shaking roars. In a split second, more than twenty adult and sub-adult Leiyin Leopards also let out angry roars at the same time, like bursts of thunder exploding, echoing across this wasteland, and then turning into streaks of black-and-silver flowing light, rushing toward Qin Yang's direction.

"Boom~" "Boom~" "Boom!" As the beast herd galloped, the ground faintly trembled.

"Make a move!" Bai Chen shouted violently.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The four of them instantly turned into afterimages, rushing straight towards that large group of Leiyin Leopards.

"Kill!" Xiong Meng roared. This time he didn't carry a shield, but instead held hammers in both hands, waving them to try his best to share the pressure for Qin Yang and prevent Qin Yang from being attacked.

Swoosh!

Bai Chen was the fastest. A large number of Leiyin Leopards charged and killed towards him, surrounding him.

"Die!" Bai Chen waved the long spear in his hand.

Whoosh!

The long spear was as fast as lightning, continuously stabbing out. Every stab caused countless blood to emerge in the air, resembling blooming red flower petals, appearing exceptionally bloody.

These Leiyin Leopards tried to resist, but their fur and claws simply couldn't withstand Bai Chen's hidden force.

"Swoosh~" One of the spears abruptly stabbed in from the eye socket, directly piercing through the skull of a Leiyin Leopard... It retracted in an instant, just like a poisonous snake spitting its tongue, making it impossible to guard against.

Bai Chen's attainment in spear technique was displayed beyond doubt.

However, accompanied by the two Leiyin Leopard leaders joining the battle, Bai Chen quickly fell into danger... Ordinary Level 20 Leiyin Leopards had thousands of kilograms of impact force with a single strike, which was enough to pose a huge threat to Bai Chen.

And there were so many of them.

"Kill!" Fang Yu's speed was slightly slower, but he finally arrived. Holding a shield in one hand, he rammed across like a big truck. The saber in his hand roared, heavily slashing towards that injured Leiyin Leopard leader.

"Roar~" That Leiyin Leopard leader's huge body dodged to the side, and at the same time waved a claw trying to block this saber strike.

"Swoosh~ Swoosh~ Rip!"

Under the eruption of hidden force, Fang Yu's instantaneous explosive force reached a terrifying five thousand kilograms. The terrifying force acted on the saber, fiercely cutting open a huge wound on the Leiyin Leopard leader's front limbs.

Fresh blood splattered!

"Boom~" "Swish!" "Puff~"

Under Fang Yu's eruption of hidden force, both speed and strength reached a terrifying level. The Streamer Blade Technique he executed was even slashed down in succession, one saber stroke connecting with another, continuous and endless. Not only did he hack the injured Leiyin Leopard leader to death alive, but he also hacked the last Leiyin Leopard leader into dodging repeatedly.

Amidst the encirclement.

Fighting two against one, facing the two Leiyin Leopard leaders, Fang Yu still occupied an absolute upper hand. This scene made everyone in the Chiyan Team feel thrilled.

Fang Yu was truly fierce and rugged.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!" Streaks of metal arrows cut through the air, fiercely hitting the bodies of those Leiyin Leopards that failed to dodge in time. Even if they didn't hit vital points, it was enough to injure them.

...

In another mountain forest less than a kilometer away, Fan Xing's Martial Artist team was originally advancing.

"That team just now really didn't know what's good for them." A tall and thin young man laughed: "However, Fan Xing, you are decisive enough. When the captain tells you to hack, you hack. You have potential."

"Breaking both legs just lets him exit the Primal Star, so as to avoid eventually dying here." Fan Xing shook his head and said: "Just like the captain said, I am doing it for his own good."

Everyone laughed.

Although their actions were ruthless, they rarely directly killed Martial Artists... This was not because of mercy, but because directly killing Martial Artists had a huge cost, which would deduct a large amount of points.

If it's just disability, as long as they don't die in the end, it won't affect them.

Suddenly.

"Hm?" The black-clothed youth who was the captain slightly moved his ears: "There is a situation. It seems someone is fighting. Follow me."

Swoosh! Swoosh!

This team quickly rushed toward the direction where the sound came from. Soon, through the mountain forest, they saw the Chiyan Team, whose battle with the beast herd was nearing its end hundreds of meters away.

"Leiyin Leopard herd?" The black-clothed youth's eyes lit up: "With so many Leiyin Leopards, there must be treasures in this area."

"It's Fang Yu." A trace of dread flashed through Fan Xing's eyes.

"Bai Chen? Qin Yang?" Another big man carrying a battle-axe also recognized the two.

"You know them?" The black-clothed youth asked in return.

"Captain, that saber-wielding expert is the senior-year newcomer on the freshman leaderboard whose coefficient is closest to mine, whom I mentioned to you." Fan Xing said in a low voice.

"Captain." The big man carrying a battle-axe said: "Bai Chen and Qin Yang are both elite students."

"Three elite students?" The black-clothed youth's eyes narrowed slightly: "Quite a capable team. No wonder they could completely slaughter the Leiyin Leopard herd that I had set my eyes on early on."

"However!"

"Daring to slaughter my prey, they have to pay a price."

"Follow me." The black-clothed youth turned into a streak of flowing light, rushing straight towards that piece of wasteland. Fan Xing, the big man carrying a battle-axe, the tall and thin young man, and others also followed one after another.

They knew.

The captain was preparing to snatch the monsters.
