(Please follow) Dawn Ridge.

Sounds of swift movement sliced through the air as Martial Artists converged from all directions toward this location.

Inside a mountain cave.

Jiang Lan, clad in white battle armor, sat cross-legged on the ground, training.

A moment later, she slowly opened her eyes, looking at the young girl in black armor not far away, gratitude flashing in her beautiful eyes.

After getting separated from Zhao Hongying, Jiang Lan encountered a girl named Li Ruoxi.

At the time, Ruoxi was also alone.

By coincidence, they formed a temporary alliance, taking turns keeping watch at night.

Jiang Lan initially thought she would be a burden, but to her surprise, once Ruoxi regained her strength, her combat ability was astonishingly strong.

Despite not having undergone a second Foundation Establishment, Ruoxi could single-handedly slay a first-tier level 4 mutant beast.

At present, Li Ruoxi was at a critical stage of her second Foundation Establishment, with Jiang Lan acting as her protector.

“Buzz!”

A wave of Qi-Blood energy burst forth from Li Ruoxi’s body as she attempted a second Foundation Establishment!

“Tap, tap, tap~”

At that moment, footsteps echoed from the cave entrance.

Jiang Lan frowned, picked up her spear, and headed outside.

“Brother Liu, I’ve tracked them down; they are nearby!” A voice came from outside the cave.

Moments later, two figures appeared at the entrance of the cave.

They were none other than Huang Yunxuan and Liu He, whom Jiang Lan hadn’t seen for days.

“Liu He?” Jiang Lan frowned, recognizing him.

“Jiang Lan?” Liu He was slightly taken aback.

He craned his neck to peer inside the cave, and upon seeing Li Ruoxi sitting cross-legged, his eyes lit up.

Beside him, Huang Yunxuan’s expression darkened slightly.

“Brother Liu,” Huang Yunxuan whispered, “Xu Zhou isn’t here.”

But Liu He wasn’t concerned about that; he only wanted Li Ruoxi.

As for dealing with Xu Zhou?

That was secondary.

The problem was Jiang Lan being here, making it difficult for him to act.

“Jiang Lan,” Liu He addressed her, frowning, “Aren’t you teamed up with Zhao Hongying?”

Jiang Lan replied calmly, “It’s none of your business.

You’re not welcome here, so leave quickly.”

Liu He smiled slightly, his tone gentle, “Jiang Lan, the person behind you is my friend.

She’s at a critical stage in her training.

Let me act as her protector.”

“Leave.” Jiang Lan reiterated.

Liu He frowned, his voice deepening, “Jiang Lan…”

“A worthless branch member of the Liu Family,” Jiang Lan coldly interrupted, “And you dare shout in front of me?

Are you overestimating yourself?”

Liu He’s face darkened instantly.

The Qi-Blood within him showed signs of surging violently.

“What?” Jiang Lan sneered, “Unconvinced?

Want to challenge me?”

Bang!

She suddenly thrust her spear, its tip vibrating fiercely, pointing directly at Liu He’s forehead.

“Defeat me,” Jiang Lan said coldly, “and I’ll leave here.”

“You…”

Liu He clenched his fist slightly, his body trembling a bit.

A moment later, he forced a smile onto his face, “Miss Jiang, apologies for the disturbance.”

With that, he turned to leave.

As he turned, the smile disappeared from Liu He’s face, replaced by a chilling and menacing expression.

Beside him, Huang Yunxuan didn’t dare speak, head down, skulking away.

Jiang Lan glanced at Liu He coldly and snorted, “The Liu Family?

Just a bunch of infamous shameless scoundrels.”

Inside the cave, Li Ruoxi slowly opened her eyes, speaking softly, “What’s happening?”

She had been immersed in her training and did not notice what happened outside.

“Nothing important.” Jiang Lan’s face broke into a smile as she approached, “Have you made a breakthrough?”

“Almost,” Li Ruoxi replied.

“Keep it up.” Jiang Lan smiled, “Once you’ve completed the second Foundation Establishment, we can go contend for the Beast King’s Heart.”

Li Ruoxi nodded lightly, her almond eyes showing a hint of anticipation.

She had heard that because of the Beast King’s Heart, Martial Artists from all over the Thousand Demon Cave were converging here.

Perhaps, she thought, she might see Xu Zhou.

Nearby, Jiang Lan sat down and glanced at the rankings on her wristband.

“First place.” Jiang Lan saw her name and a smile appeared on her pretty face.

A month ago, she had secured the top position, and she believed this ranking would hold until the end of this journey.

As for Xu Zhou?

Although initially, he gained good results relying on strong companions.

But that was just a flash in the pan; a month ago, she had already surpassed him.

From that moment, Jiang Lan believed Xu Zhou had no chance of redeeming himself.

And indeed, this was the case; a month had passed without him causing any ripple.

Now, Jiang Lan no longer paid much attention to Xu Zhou’s ranking.

Xu Zhou was unaware of the team-up between Li Ruoxi and Jiang Lan.

If he knew, he would probably marvel at the irony of fate.

The lost members of the two teams had coincidentally met!

At this moment, Xu Zhou and Zhao Hongying were sitting in a hidden place, each healing their wounds.

At the same time, the Golden Winged Tyrannosaurus was also quietly recovering.

Its healing method was straightforward: eating!

“Crunch, crunch, crunch~”

The Golden Winged Tyrannosaurus opened its massive jaws, biting into the carcass of the Croc Beast Leader.

In the next second, Xu Zhou felt like he had bitten into incredibly tough steel.

“So hard!” Xu Zhou was secretly shocked.

The flesh of a third-tier giant beast was unbelievably hard, even after death, it was still difficult to tear apart.

Subsequently, the Golden Winged Tyrannosaurus spent half a day before it could finally bite off a small piece of meat.

“Boom!”

The Croc Beast meat, upon entering its stomach, instantly transformed into a massive burst of energy.

Like a tsunami, it surged through the Tyrannosaurus’s body.

In that moment, the wounds on the Golden Winged Tyrannosaurus began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Not only that, Xu Zhou’s wounds also accelerated their healing.

“Hm?” Xu Zhou was slightly shocked, “The Avatar’s consumption can actually aid the Main Body’s healing?”

The next second, a look of delight appeared on his face.

He had sustained quite severe injuries this time.

He thought it would take days to improve.

But now it seemed, he might be almost recovered by tonight!

“Great.” Xu Zhou was pleasantly surprised, “Truly an unexpected joy.”

Now, there were several days until the energy Transmission Array was activated.

And the kill leaderboard would soon be finalized!

Xu Zhou was still in third place, but he didn’t want to stop there; he was determined to seize first place in a spectacular manner!

This required killing, lots of killing.

Originally, Xu Zhou planned to wait a few days until his injuries were healed before starting.

But now it seemed, he might not have to wait that long.

“I can probably set off tomorrow.”

Xu Zhou closed his eyes, quietly waiting for time to pass.

One hour, three hours, six hours…

Time flew by.

A day passed.

Just as dawn began to break, Xu Zhou picked up his Tang knife and headed outside.

Beside him, Zhao Hongying awoke, her voice soft, “Where are you going?”

“To the Blood Wing Flying Tiger Clan Territory,” Xu Zhou responded calmly.

He had decided on this yesterday.

The Flying Tiger Clan Leader was dead, but a large group of first-tier Blood Wing Flying Tigers remained there.

These were Xu Zhou’s targets!

Upon hearing his words, Zhao Hongying quickly got up, but a small flicker of pain flashed across her face.

“Your wounds aren’t healed yet, so don’t go,” Xu Zhou cast her a glance and said.

Zhao Hongying hesitated to speak, but in the end, she nodded, “Alright, be careful.”

“Mm.” Xu Zhou said calmly, “I’ll be back within a day.”

With these words, he strode outside.

“Whoosh!”

Moments later, the Golden Winged Tyrannosaurus lifted the young man, spreading its wings and flying into the sky.

On the ground, Zhao Hongying watched the figure disappear, her face showing a mix of complex emotions.

“Lanlan,” she silently mused, “If you knew his current strength, would you regret your previous decision?”

Blood Wing Flying Tiger Clan Territory.

A group of Blood Wing Flying Tigers lounged lazily on their respective territories, basking in the morning sun.

“Whoosh!”

At that moment, a sound of slicing through the air echoed.

The Blood Wing Flying Tigers didn’t care; outsiders seldom dared to invade their territory, as they were usually the ones doing the invading.

Of course, that was excluding those two foolish humans last time.

However, those two were probably caught and swallowed by their Clan Leader by now, right?

Many Blood Wing Flying Tigers pondered.

“Boom!!”

Suddenly, a dazzling blade of light slashed toward the ground, unleashing a force of Qi-Blood as powerful as a cannonball.

In almost an instant, several first-tier level 2 Blood Wing Flying Tigers met their demise.

“Roar!”

Now, the lazy Blood Wing Flying Tigers were alert, realizing there was an intruder!

They all looked toward the sky.

A dark golden Tyrannosaurus soared above, and immediately, a figure launched from its back like a projectile.

The figure brandished the long knife across their back, diving toward the Blood Wing Flying Tiger’s territory.

“Roar!”

On the ground, loud and violent roars erupted.

The Blood Wing Flying Tigers recognized him; it was that human who invaded last time!

He wasn’t dead!

Enemies meeting each other became intensely furious; instantly, many Blood Wing Flying Tigers let out a howling roar and charged at Xu Zhou.

“Kill!”

Xu Zhou landed, his long knife sweeping out, the blade light like a magnificent galaxy roaring forward, instantly severing the neck of a first-tier level 4 Flying Tiger.

Whoosh, whoosh!

The long knife traversed, piercing through one Blood Wing Flying Tiger after another.

“Roar!”

Suddenly, an intense roar erupted, releasing an incredibly fierce aura.

Soon after, a giant figure slowly approached, its tiger’s roar echoing through the forest, imposing terror across the land.

A first-tier level 5 Blood Wing Flying Tiger!

Xu Zhou remained expressionless, his knife still poised to kill.

A first-tier level 5?

I’ve dealt with third-tier giant beasts; there’s no need to fear a mere first-tier level 5!

“Whoosh!”

He charged forward with the knife, attacking the first-tier level 5 Blood Wing Flying Tiger.

After experiencing a life-or-death crisis, though his strength hadn’t grown, his determination had greatly strengthened.

At this moment, Xu Zhou’s Spirit was at its peak.

As if nothing could stop him!

One slash out, carrying an unstoppable momentum, the blade’s light as bright as the midday sun!

“Swish—”

The long knife swept through!

The head of the first-tier level 5 Flying Tiger was sent flying.

“Kill!” Xu Zhou shouted, his figure a specter sweeping across the battlefield.

More and more Blood Wing Flying Tigers surged forward, among them many first-tier level 4s, and even some first-tier level 5s!

Xu Zhou, like a war deity, continued his endless slaughter here.

Ten, twenty, fifty, eighty…
