Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
Chen Shu did not cause any more major disturbances like "Killing the Legendary" this time.
It wasn't because he was low-key; it was mainly because he had run out of Beast Emperor Medicine...
To produce the elixirs, he had been collecting resources from various异空间 (yì kōngjiān -异空间) without making much noise, so as not to alert the major Beast Emperors.
However, this naturally lowered his efficiency. After all, he had previously plundered the territories of major Beast Emperors.
It was equivalent to transforming from a notorious bandit into a petty thief...
Still, Chen Shu gradually calmed his mind, not rushing too much.
The two major fierce beast factions were currently in conflict, and he didn't want humanity to be noticed by either side, especially with them preparing to open a relic soon...
Due to Chen Shu's disappearance, humanity's presence had naturally continued to decline, even fading from the sight of the fierce beasts.
Of course, some Beast Emperors remained vigilant...
Over the past six months,
The Beast Emperors of both sides continued to erupt in battles, though they were only small-scale skirmishes, far from the initial clashes between them.
The Great Fierce Beast faction was desperately collecting resources to recover from their injuries and strength,
While the New Era Beast Emperor faction was continuously suppressing them, initiating battles from time to time to further worsen their injuries.
"Golden-grade Mars Flower..."
Chen Shu, clad in a black trench coat, was harvesting the golden-grade medicinal herbs before him.
"I've actually fallen to the point of collecting Golden-grade resources... what a descent..."
As he was diligently foraging, a low roar suddenly came from behind him.
"Hmm?"
Chen Shu turned his head slightly, his expression completely calm.
A giant tiger, entirely golden in color, glared at the intruder with fierce eyes.
Chen Shu smiled faintly and said, "I see your place is quite messy, let me tidy it up for you..."
Roar!
The giant tiger emanated a blazing light, exuding the might of a King-grade beast, its eyes filled with icy killing intent.
"You don't seem satisfied?"
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow and said, "Then I'll send you on your way."
As soon as he finished speaking, a spatial imprint appeared on the giant tiger's forehead.
The imprint pulsed with a faint glow, instantly transforming into a sharp spatial blade!
Hiss!
The giant tiger's eyes widened in terror. Before it could even let out a mournful cry, its body was forcibly torn in half!
What was even more shocking was that,
Its core material and the beast-taming pearl within its body were not harmed at all.
At this moment, the Spatial Rabbit instantly appeared beside the giant tiger and scooped up the spoils of war.
Clearly, it was already accustomed to this...
It had even killed Legendary beings, so instantly killing an ordinary King-grade beast offered no sense of achievement.
"That's about enough..." Da Feng Novel Network.
Chen Shu glanced at the now bare fierce beast territory, clapped his hands, and left with the rabbit.
"Half a year, and I've only collected hundreds of billions in resources..."
He arrived on Blue Star, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
While that sounded like an astronomical figure to others, at least half of it came from the Monarchs he had slain, and that portion of resources naturally could not be used for preparing Beast Emperor Medicine.
Furthermore, the cost of a single bottle of Beast Emperor Medicine was trillions. After working for so long, he hadn't even gathered enough for one bottle...
"I still have to rely on the relics..."
Chen Shu was not disappointed. Searching for resources outside was merely a way to earn some extra income and keep abreast of the current situation.
His primary target remained the relics!
After all, they were inheritances left by human powerhouses of the past, and they were expected to contain abundant resources.
"It should be about time..."
Chen Shu murmured to himself and instantly teleported back to the relic.
The Starry Sky Relic was no longer as radiant as it once was. A significant amount of energy had been expended to allow everyone to participate in practical combat.
However, this had also enabled everyone to truly master their own strength, leading to an increase in their overall combat power.
"Brother Roughneck!"
At this moment, nearly two hundred people stood in neat formation before Chen Shu, all radiating spirit and emanating powerful auras.
These were the King-grade Beast Tamers of the younger generation!
The five major relics that the old man had instructed were primarily aimed at the advancement of King-grade and Golden-grade Beast Tamers.
And the relic set to open today, due to its limited quota, could only prioritize King-grade participants.
"Everyone..."
Chen Shu looked at the crowd with a smile. Most of them were familiar faces,
Such as Ji Feng and Wang Sheng, who were of his generation, as well as students he had taught at the training camp.
"I believe you have all fully grasped your combat capabilities, and today is the day to test them."
He spoke calmly,
"A top-tier, large-scale relic is about to open. How much reward you receive will depend on yourselves!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression stirred.
Even at this stage, relics were still something beyond the reach of many. Most people had never even seen one.
"Let's go!"
Chen Shu's expression shifted, and he spoke.
The next second, the Spatial Rabbit's expression changed, and it tossed out over a thousand spatial imprints.
The imprints, like dancing sprites, landed at everyone's feet, converging to form a vast expanse of light.
Chen Shu said, "Don't resist..."
The light surged upwards, enveloping each person's body, shimmering with spatial energy.
Then, the light dissipated, and everyone vanished from their original positions.
To prevent the fierce beasts from detecting the location of the Starry Sky Relic, people could only travel using Chen Shu's teleportation ability, leaving no trace.
"We're out?"
"Finally out!"
"Are we in a异空间 (yì kōngjiān -异空间)?"
At this moment, the nearly two hundred people found themselves at the foot of a mountain peak, gazing at the surrounding scenery, their excitement soaring.
These were scenes they had seen everywhere before, but today they felt a sense of unreality.
They had not seen them for three and a half years...
"..."
Chen Shu watched everyone's reactions with a smile, not telling them to quiet down.
Among humans, only he frequently went out.
The others had indeed been in seclusion for too long.
"Alright, everyone can move around freely, as long as you don't leave this 异空间 (yì kōngjiān -异空间)."
Chen Shu smiled and said, "The relic will officially open at midnight tonight."
"Won't this alert the fierce beasts?"
Fang Si asked, though his heart was also pounding with excitement, he maintained his vigilance.
"It's fine. Although this 异空间 (yì kōngjiān -异空间) is Nightmare-grade, it was affected by the past battles. The fierce beasts are almost all dead or injured, and there's not much in terms of resources."
Chen Shu shook his head, a strange smile in his eyes, and said,
"Besides, this place is controlled by the Great Fierce Beast Zhu Yan. It's probably fighting tooth and nail with the Six-Winged Centipede Emperor right now..."
"How do you know?"
"I stole the Centipede Emperor's excrement and dumped it all on Zhu Yan's head."
