Divine Beast Adventures

Edited by Aelryinth

This time, Zhang Che worked until the sky was completely dark outside before the new tunnel was connected.

Similar to the old cave entrance, Zhang Che did some work to the entrance of the old tunnel, not leaving any traces of it behind.

From now on, the treasure cavern would belong to only Zhang Che himself!

——

With a splash, Zhang Che crawled out of the pond. He took off the Swamp Crocodile King armor, revealing a bright smile.

“Although there’s no way to transport all the purple-gold crystals in the cavern out in the short-term, I’ll surely have a chance to get my hands on a spatial storage item in the future!”

Zhang Che had made up his mind. In the future, he’d remain here at the outskirts of the mountain range and hunt three-star and four-star exotic beasts. He could return home once he obtained one or two three-star gold-quality beast cards and raised his beastmaster tier to Tier Four.

Although the university enrollment test would take place in the latter half of June, Zhang Che had to get back a few days in advance. Otherwise, if there were any changes, Teacher Han wouldn’t be able to find him, and he might miss this opportunity.

Zhang Che had a large amount of purple-gold crystal ore on his hands now, and could cure his mother’s illness by setting up a reward, thus whether he enrolled into university wasn’t an issue. However, he felt that this method should only be used as a last resort.

After all, Zhang Che firmly believed in one principle: if you didn’t have the ability to protect what you had, you should try your best to not expose it, or you’d be fraught with trouble.

Back on Earth, he had read countless cases of businessmen having everything taken away from them. Although there might be some fake news in there, there was still a lesson to be learned from them!

This was a world where strength reigned supreme. The so-called law and justice were nothing but empty words to those who were high up in the hierarchy. If they discovered any great benefits they could take, did anyone really think they would play nice and abide by the so-called law?

Perhaps only kids would believe in that!

Therefore, the matter about him having purple-gold crystals must not be casually exposed, unless he had no other choices left. It might not be safe even after using the Myriad Transformation Lizard card to change his identity!

——

Coming out of the cave, the sky had turned completely dark long ago.

Fortunately, Zhang Che had made preparations earlier and prepared a gutted exotic beast. He only needed to start a bonfire outside the cave and he could start roasting it.

Considering that both the frisky monkey and the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon had huge appetites, and that his food supply was only a single exotic beast, Zhang Che had very selfishly kept his pets contained in his spiritual sea. He worked by himself for some time, roasting the bull-like exotic beast over the fire until it was cooked and started feasting on it, taking huge mouthfuls at a time.

Regrettably, there were not much salt left in his bag of spices after his unrestrained roasting over the past few days. The meat was considerably less tasty.

“It looks like I can’t let those two gluttons have any roasted meat for the next few days, either. This little bit of salt isn’t going to last.”

As such, Zhang Che began fantasizing about how long it would be before he finally obtained a spatial storage item beast card.

Even so, this was still something left up to chance. One could only imagine the rarity of a spatial storage beast card. It was comparable to that of a healing-type beast card. It might be even rarer than that!

“I can only take this one step at a time. At the most, I’ll order a super large-sized backpack. I have superhuman strength now, anyway; it’s not like I can’t carry it.”

——

It was another night of good sleep.

Considering that he had no way of bringing the purple-gold crystal mineral out to the real world, Zhang Che didn’t continue mining. The entire cavern was his, anyway. There would be plenty of time for that in the future.

The next morning, Zhang Che slept in until he woke up naturally. After he woke up, he had the frisky monkey carry the Falling Star Model X and follow behind him, as he equipped the Swamp Crocodile King armor and used the Rotten Ent Prowler whip to pull him through the tunnel.

“I’d better widen the tunnel when I have time in the future. It’s not really a solution to slide my way out everytime…”

Today was the tenth of June.

Walking out of the cave, Zhang Che embraced the sunlight, his lips curled up into a smile.

He had everything planned out. He’d kill as many three-star or higher exotic beasts as required and return to Mercury as soon as possible, in case there were any changes to the enrollment test.

With that, the exotic beasts in the nearby mountains were in for a thoroughly bad time.

Although Zhang Che didn’t have any gold-quality beasts among his Original Combat Body fighters, the Purple Jade Condor and the Dark-Scaled Lizard Commander were both three-star dark gold-quality beasts.

The two of them were in control of both the land and air, akin to overlords of the outskirts of the mountain range. If they worked together, they had nothing to fear even if they encountered an exotic beast of the same level and quality, and could even slay it.

Moreover, Zhang Che still had an extremely capable pet: the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon!

With such a powerful team, they were simply unbeatable in the outskirts, destroying every exotic beast in their paths.

Currently, Zhang Che needed to kill several hundred more three-star exotic beasts to advance to Tier Four. It might sound like a lot, but it wouldn’t take more than a few days if he put his mind to it. The only thing he had to worry about was the lack of three-star exotic beasts for him to kill.

In the outskirts of this mountain range, the one thing that was the most abundant was three-star and four-star exotic beasts.

Zhang Che could employ the Scarlet Flame Drake once he advanced to Tier Four. Just thinking about it stirred him up.

Without a doubt, the Scarlet Flame Drake, whose specialty was wielding flames, was a top-tier existence among beasts of the same level and quality in terms of offensive power. Moreover, the Scarlet Flame Drake was also a beast that excelled in close combat.

“If I wasn’t in a rush to return for the enrollment test, I could really try venturing deeper into the mountain range when I advanced. Perhaps I might even come across some huge gains if I did…”

——

On this day, Zhang Che led his subdued beasts and pets, sweeping the three-star or higher exotic beasts in the surrounding dozen kilometers. The results of his conquest were illustrious, slaying close to two hundred exotic beasts, and obtaining around fifty beast cards.

Of those, there were four silver-quality cards, while the rest were black iron and bronze quality. It was a pity that there were no gold-quality cards.

The next day, Zhang Che renewed his efforts and expanded his hunting area. He swept over the surrounding fifteen kilometers, obtaining another few dozen beast cards, and finally got a three-star gold-quality beast card.
