The peaceful valley erupted into chaos.
The Ice Bat swarm, previously pursuing the big man, sensed the danger of their kin and abandoned their prey, descending into the valley below.
"Damn, that was too close."
The big man breathed a sigh of relief. The black bird beneath his feet had injured wings, likely incurring a hefty medical bill.
"This is a total loss."
At this moment, the two overlords of the Frosty Valley, the fierce beast swarms, had engaged in a massive battle!
"Spectacular, absolutely spectacular!"
Chen Shu and the other two arrived at the mouth of a cave, listening to the roars echoing from a distance.
The trio couldn't help but applaud, fully enjoying the spectacle without any concern for the consequences.
The Zhen Ling Army members in the sky twitched their lips, surprised that Chen Shu and his companions had so easily thrown the Frosty Valley into disarray.
"Should we set up a blacklist in the future?"
He stroked his chin, contemplating. These three were merely intern beastmasters, yet they were this reckless.
If they were to truly become powerhouses, would the异空间 (Yi Kong Jian - dimension/otherworldly space) ever know peace?
Time trickled by.
The battle between the two fierce beast species finally subsided.
No one knew how many beasts had died; a pungent smell of blood wafted from the valley floor.
"It's over. No more show."
Chen Shu shrugged and looked towards the cave beside them.
Just as they were about to step inside, two deep blue lights suddenly appeared within the cave, floating in mid-air.
"Holy crap! There's a fierce beast! Old Xie, why didn't you sound the alarm?!"
Chen Shu's body jolted. He managed to get a clear look at the beast in the cave.
A Frost Giant Wolf, seven to eight meters tall, appeared, exuding an incredibly terrifying aura, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet!
"Damn it! It's a Lord!"
Chen Shu's reaction speed was incredible. His slime body suddenly expanded, instantly blocking the cave entrance.
"Roar!"
Blue frost surged forward.
The slumbering slime's body was covered in ice, freezing it solid.
"Damn it!"
Chen Shu and the other two got back onto the thunderbird. Chen Shu collected the slime, now turned into an ice sculpture.
A handsome-looking Frost Giant Wolf slowly emerged, its terrifying aura undoubtedly belonging to the Lord tier!
"Stop shaking your butt! Let's go!"
The mutated thunderbird, seeing that the other beast couldn't fly, began to shake its posterior again.
This wasn't just a dance on the edge of death; it was a full-blown rave!
"Roar!"
The Frost Giant Wolf Lord roared, and a stream of frost shot towards them.
The mutated thunderbird's wagging backside was instantly frozen.
"Screech!"
The thunderbird felt its hindquarters go numb. Panic flashed in its eyes, and its speed increased significantly as it fled into the distance.
"Your bird is really suicidal!"
Chen Shu's mouth twitched. The trio quickly left the scene of trouble.
"Damn, I'm going to have a heart attack!"
The Zhen Ling Army member above cursed. He had almost intervened just moments ago.
These three dared to provoke a Lord-level fierce beast.
The trio were audacious, and the thunderbird was equally fearless, continuing to shake its backside at the Lord.
He sighed, "Is this the seed player from Nanjiang Second High School?"
Chen Shu and the other two fled until they found a safe haven.
Inside a cave,
The glow of flames emanated, dispelling the darkness of the night.
Chen Shu reassembled the barbecue grill. No longer were there beast meats on it, but a large yellow sphere.
The slime's body was still encased in ice, yet to thaw.
"Incredibly powerful!"
Chen Shu's mouth twitched. A single skill from the Frost Giant Wolf Lord had incapacitated his slime, even causing it damage.
Flames burned with a sizzling sound, gradually melting the ice.
Beside the slime, a mutated thunderbird sat dejectedly, placing its backside on the barbecue grill.
Its backside was also covered in ice.
"Chen Pi, let's go up tomorrow. I feel it's a bit too dangerous."
Neither the Ice Bat swarm nor the Frost Wolf pack were opponents the trio could contend with; escaping had been extremely difficult.
"It actually froze my slime, I can't stand it!"
Chen Shu shook his head, holding a bottle of gray potion.
It was the Explosion Potion he had recently received as a system reward.
He said with a serious expression, "I'm going to blow up the Frost Wolf pack!"
The other two looked at him in unison, as if he were a terrorist.
"What is this thing?"
The two instinctively took a step back, looking at the potion in Chen Shu's hand.
Chen Shu said casually, "It's nothing, just a little thing."
"I suggest you move a bit further from the fire."
Xu Xingxing's mouth twitched. He felt an inexplicable unease, as if he were about to ascend to the heavens.
Chen Shu looked down. The potion in the bottle was emitting a large amount of white vapor, as if a chemical reaction was occurring.
"Holy crap! So easy to ignite?"
Chen Shu immediately put the potion back into his system space.
If it were accidentally detonated, it would be too ridiculous. The scene, just imagining it, was beautiful.
"Huh? Where did the potion go?"
The expressions of the other two changed to surprise, staring blankly at Chen Shu, who seemed to have performed magic.
"You mortals wouldn't understand. It's because my hand speed is too fast."
Chen Shu waved his hand dismissively and returned to the campfire, waiting for the slime to thaw.
The three spent a sleepless night. Without their contracted spirit beasts guarding them, they dared not sleep.
The next morning,
The trio had dark circles under their eyes, groggy and sleepy.
"Screech!"
A bird's cry sounded. The mutated thunderbird instantly spread its wings, its expression panicked.
"Little Xing, your bird is scorched!"
Chen Shu looked and burst into laughter.
Xu Xingxing instinctively retorted, "Your bird is scorched!"
He looked up and indeed saw that the mutated thunderbird's backside had turned completely black.
"Almost there."
The ice on the slime's body had completely melted, restoring its combat strength.
Xie Sunan yawned and asked, "Chen Pi, are you really going to bomb the wolf pack?"
"Nonsense! I, Chen Shu, always keep my promises!"
Chen Shu patted his chest and said, "Besides, don't you want to complete the mission?"
The two looked at him with doubt and asked, "With your potion, can it kill a Black Iron Lord?"
Chen Shu was unsure, but he replied, "Even if it can't kill it, it can deal with the other ordinary fierce beasts. Then, only one Lord wolf will be left!"
"If we let Old Shen make his move, won't we get four million for free?"
Chen Shu grinned slyly, as if he had already pocketed the four million bounty.
"Will Teacher Shen make a move?"
"You're stupid. He can't deal with a fierce beast swarm, but he can definitely deal with a single Lord fierce beast! If there's money to be made and he doesn't take it, do you think Old Shen is foolish?"
Xu Xingxing nodded and said, "That makes sense! Let's go!"
"Go where? I'm so tired. Let's wait until the wolves are asleep tonight and have the contracted spirit beasts guard us!"
Chen Shu yawned and entered his tent.
Xie Sunan and the other looked at each other, put on their pajamas, and began to sleep soundly.
Shen Wushuang, standing on the Ice Phoenix in the sky, had no idea how insane the trio's thoughts were.
And Chen Shu had no idea that the Explosion Potion from the system would be far more terrifying than he imagined.
