Chapter 382 - An unusual event

Just as Xiao Qianhan's voice fell, a few spirit beast heads peeked out from within the bushes. They stared at Xiao Qianhan and the others with their eyes, but they were all extremely cautious, perhaps measuring their strength.

From the looks of it, there were quite a few spirit beasts.

Looking at the situation in front of him, Jue Sha rubbed his nose and said in a low voice, "I just remembered that there are a lot of spirit beasts that we enter, and they are all of high quality. If we want to go deep into the Infernal Forest, we have to walk past these spirit beasts. The corpses on the ground are probably the people of Celestial Fiend Sect.

"There are no shortcuts in this world, just focus on dealing with them." Xiao Qianhan nodded her head, her expression cold and her entire body alert. These spirit beasts were all at least Rank 8. If it was just any one of the three of them, they would be able to deal with them easily. However, what was in front of them right now was a horde of spirit beasts!

A group of spirit beasts had a terrifying fighting strength. Even if the three of them could be considered to be weaker than their opponents outside of Infernal Forest, they had to be careful when facing a high level fierce spirit beast.

Indeed, a shortcut was destined to be filled with thorns.

"I'm very curious, you have never been to the Infernal Forest before, are you afraid of encountering fierce spirit beasts?" Ye Jun asked Jue Sha in a low voice as he walked forward with Xiao Qianhan.

Hearing that, Jue Sha acted as if he had heard some huge joke, "I'm afraid of spirit beasts? Ye Jun, are your eyes being blinded? As a Sect Master Tian Sha, the thing that I am least afraid of is a spirit beast! "

Xiao Qianhan turned her head to look at the two of them, and with just a glance, she made the two of them shut their mouths.

These spirit beasts all seemed to have turned into spirits as they stared at Xiao Qianhan and the others with their green eyes, but they did not rush up. After a quarter of an hour, they had been following them, but they hadn't attacked. Just what were they waiting for?

"Are they afraid of something?" Ye Jun guessed.

Xiao Qianhan raised her eyebrows. Suddenly, she remembered that ever since Xiao Miao had levelled up, there seemed to be no spirit beast that dared to approach him no matter where she went. However, Xiao Miao was in the ten thousand ding imprint right now, and these spirit beasts were still able to sense her existence?

"He should have sensed Xiao Miao's existence." Xiao Qianhan said in a heavy voice. She did not plan to let Xiao Miao out. Xiao Miao was a Divine Beast, and after levelling up, the power of the Divine Beast would be even stronger. If she suddenly appeared in the Infernal Forest, it would cause a commotion among the spirit beasts in the Infernal Forest.

Ye Jun nodded, "No wonder."

"Why not take the initiative?" Jue Sha lazily suggested. Being watched by these spirit beasts the whole time made him feel uncomfortable!

Xiao Qianhan smiled, "Alright!"

The three of them immediately took out their weapons and started attacking the surrounding Spirit Beasts.

The horde of spirit beasts had never thought that Xiao Qianhan and the others would suddenly attack, but being in battle all year round, their reactions were extremely quick and violent, their sharp claws grabbing onto white light beams in the air as they roared continuously.

Compared to the past, when Xiao Qianhan and Ye Jun faced this group of Rank 8 and above spirit beasts, they were easy to deal with and were no longer as bedraggled as they were before.

Before long, the corpses of a dozen or so spirit beasts could be seen on the ground.

It was rare for them to exchange blows with so many spirit beasts, so it was a good opportunity for them to increase their spirit energy through experience. They killed their way in.

In Infernal Forest, there was no darkness, only a foggy daytime. It was unknown how long the killing intent from the three of them shook the spirit beasts who wanted to rush up to them, causing them to retreat step by step in fear.

However, the number did not decrease. One could still see the huge bodies of a huge number of Spiritual Beasts.

"This situation is somewhat abnormal, why do all these spirit beasts seem to be gathered at the borders of the Infernal Forest? Could it be that there was some sort of strange movement deep within the Infernal Forest? " Jue Sha's thick eyebrows slightly knitted, as he casually killed a spirit beast before speaking in a low voice.

Although he had never been to the Infernal Forest before, he understood that it was impossible for so many spirit beasts to appear at the outskirts of the Infernal Forest. Furthermore, these spirit beasts seemed to have some sort of fear towards the depths of the Infernal Forest, which prevented them from approaching it.

Xiao Qianhan nodded her head, "It is indeed extraordinary, it seems like we can only get an answer after we penetrate deep into the Infernal Forest." She also really wanted to know if her understanding of Su Qing had deepened after understanding the Infernal Forest a bit, or if she knew the reason why Su Qing had appeared in her dreams.

"Go!" Let's go investigate! " Ye Jun said in a heavy voice.

According to the time on the hourglass, it was already five days after Xiao Qianhan and the other two stopped to rest.

Five days later, the number of spirit beasts they had encountered was rather low. However, they would often encounter a few frightened spirit beasts that were scurrying about. At first, they were suspicious, but after a few days, they were more and more certain about it.

There must be some secret in the depths of Infernal Forest!

When the three of them stopped to rest, they caught a spirit beast and roasted it over the fire.

Some of the ingredients sprinkled on top were the Spirit Grasses of the ten thousand ding imprint. Many of the Spirit Grasses would crumble after drying in the sun, becoming edible spices. When sprinkled on the grilled meat, it would make the meat even more tender.

A burst of fragrance spread in all directions.

When they stopped to rest, they carried out a search of their surroundings, but no one came. Due to the unique weather and plants in Infernal Forest, it was always misty, and the towering trees beside them could completely cover up the smoke and firelight, allowing them to eat as they pleased.

"According to our current speed, if we wanted to enter the depths of Infernal Forest, we would probably have to travel for a month. This does not even include the possibility of some obstacles. " Ye Jun said while gnawing on the meat.

Jue Sha raised his eyebrows, "It's not really that long, and perhaps the deeper we go, the fewer obstructions there will be. Right now, I'm really looking forward to the situation inside, what exactly happened here that caused the Infernal Forest, which hadn't made any movements for thousands of years, to move?" On this trip to the Infernal Forest, it seemed like some interesting things had happened. Other than being able to see Xiao Qianhan everyday, she was also able to decipher it.

Suddenly, three more spirit beasts ran out of nowhere as if they were fleeing. When they saw that Xiao Qianhan and the other two had stopped, but just as they were about to charge over to attack them, they stopped. Instead of attacking them, they continuously retreated, and then escaped like a wisp of smoke.

The light in Xiao Qianhan's eyes flickered slightly. After a moment of thought, she softly said, "It was indeed an abnormal movement. Those spirit beasts from earlier definitely did not escape just because they felt Xiao Miao."
