CHAPTER 107: CHAPTER 69: PATTERNED TOAD

With a swift movement, he rushed towards the outskirts of the beast’s roar.

By the time he returned to Songyi City, it was already past six in the evening.

Lin Zheyu freshened up and called on Jia Yanrong and others to relax at Baihua Tower.

Today, deep within Beast Roar Mountain, he battled fierce beasts all day. Although exhausting, he felt his blood boil, experiencing the exhilarating feeling of battle.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

Every day, Lin Zheyu would go out to Beast Roar Mountain and engage in fierce combat with powerful beasts.

Over the days, he planted seeds of confidence and dominance in his heart, cultivating an invincible belief that would slowly take root and grow.

Afternoon.

Lin Zheyu charged out from the depths of Beast Roar Mountain, the roar of beasts echoing behind him.

Boom

Rumble.

The ground shook with tremors, countless beasts fleeing in panic.

"How could such terrifying beasts suddenly appear in that place!"

Lin Zheyu cursed under his breath, using all his strength to run wildly.

His shirt on his back was torn by the sharp claws of a beast, revealing smooth muscle lines and a few small scars.

Just now, while searching for beasts, two terrifyingly powerful beasts fought and fled from the depths of Beast Roar Mountain.

Lin Zheyu was inadvertently caught in the chaos.

He was casually clawed by a strong beast resembling a fox as mighty as a lion, tearing his shirt on the back.

Luckily, Lin Zheyu was skilled in Lightweight Skill, or else a piece of flesh might have been torn out.

"I almost got caught in that." Lin Zheyu shuddered at the thought.

If not for the beast being engaged with another, Lin Zheyu feared he might have been in real danger.

After running a great distance, Lin Zheyu finally stopped, gasping for breath.

"Those two beasts must have reached the level of Qi Blood Three Transformations, or even Four Transformations!" he murmured to himself.

"That’s enough for today; luck wasn’t on my side. I’ll come back tomorrow."

Lin Zheyu muttered as he turned to leave.

At this moment, the sky was still bright, the forest filled with light.

Leisurely walking through the mountains, he hadn’t gone half an hour before a group of people dressed as hunters rushed past from afar.

Lin Zheyu took a closer look and, by chance, the leader was Ma Wangcheng, whom he had met once.

"Mr. Ma, what happened?"

Lin Zheyu quickly approached, asking curiously.

Ma Wangcheng, true to his name, was straightforward and had helped him significantly before. If there was trouble within his capabilities, Lin Zheyu wouldn’t mind lending a hand.

"It’s you!"

"Quick, don’t go that way; there are traces of undead activity." Ma Wangcheng pointed to the direction they had just fled from.

"Undead appeared?"

"No."

"But there are traces of undead activity, meaning they’re likely hiding nearby." Ma Wangcheng said solemnly.

Undead indeed avoid activity by day, but if prey comes their way, they wouldn’t mind a quick meal.

"I see."

"How do you recognize traces of undead activity? Can you tell me?" Lin Zheyu asked.

"Around where undead appear, the vegetation looks scorched, and bodies nearby seem corroded by some poison, their skin blackened."

"If you see such a scene, you must immediately get away!" Ma Wangcheng warned gravely.

"Thanks for the heads-up, Mr. Ma. I found something in the forest, and I’d like you to have it."

Lin Zheyu said with a smile, taking out a colorful toad from his package.

"A patterned toad!"

Ma Wangcheng exclaimed. This type of toad is poisonous, has medicinal value, and is quite valuable.

At current prices, just one could sell for at least three taels of silver.

"Mr. Lin, I can’t accept this." Ma Wangcheng insisted.

"It’s fine; I caught quite a few. Mr. Ma helped me a lot; this is rightfully yours." Lin Zheyu replied with a smile.

Today, luck was on his side as he had caught three patterned toads.

This toad can be made into a rare Psychedelic Medicine, capable of making Martial Artists in the Qi Blood Gauze Realm faint for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

"I have things to handle, so I’ll take my leave now."

Lin Zheyu handed over the patterned toad, then disappeared into the forest with a swift movement.
