Peerless Fierce Beast

Every single old man in this carriage was an existence with great strength. The aura they emitted was comparable to the vicious beasts in the forest.

Under normal circumstances, not a single movement could escape their notice.

However, Gu Qi was currently too weak. His tiny aura was probably not much stronger than an ant's, and these elders seemed to be preoccupied with their own matters, so they didn't pay attention to his uninvited guest.

Gu Qi obediently lied down in the corner of the carriage. He didn't even dare to breathe out, as he was deeply afraid of attracting the attention of these old fellows. With just a casual kick, he would be trampled to death.

Along the way, these few old men rarely spoke, but Gu Qi more or less heard some useful information.

Now, he already knew that the world he resided in was called the Sky Fantasy Continent. It was a vast and boundless continent, and the region humans explored was only a tenth of it.

But even this tenth of it was still enormous. It opened cities, built countless powerful empires, and created many martial dao sects.

The people here could use all kinds of cultivation methods to increase their own strength so that they could resist the magical beasts in the wilderness and deal with other dangers.

In the beginning, humans had to use Spirit Enlightenment, Summoning, and Wisdom to cultivate. After that, there were two main directions: one was the Soul Warriors who specialized in cultivating the Spirit Power, and the other was the Soul Warriors who specialized in using powerful techniques.

From the lowest level of Profound Practitioners, to the legendary realm of Profound Soldiers, Mysterious Masters, Profound Kings, Mysterious Sovereigns, and Mysterious Sovereigns, there were even more profound legends.

There were many types of demon beasts, and other than a small number of docile species like Gu Qi, which didn't have much harm, most of them were vicious and extremely powerful existences.

Some magical beasts even possessed an ancient bloodline that could devour the heavens and devour the sun.

Unless there was a human martial artist as powerful as him, even if he sent out an army, he wouldn't be able to do anything.

During this process, Gu Qi also understood a very important piece of information.

It was that Magical Beasts could also become as powerful as humans. They could take human form, and they could even possess intelligence not inferior to humans.

After the birth of each magical beast, a monster core would be born in the body, which would also give birth to two primordial abilities.

After that, the magical beasts could use these two abilities to obtain various resources, profound strength, cultivate a Monster Core, and strengthen themselves.

Magical beasts were born to be Beastmen, and their strength was equivalent to a human's profound practitioner. They did not need to go through the same primary stage as humans, but this was also a path that determined a magical beast's physical body.

"Innate ability? Great! Right now, what I lack the most is my ability to protect myself. I wonder what abilities my Slime will awaken? "

Gu Qi muttered to himself as he willed it in his heart. He noticed that he'd already entered the state of inner sight, and everything within his body was clearly displayed before his eyes.

Inside his round body, there were a few silk-like tiny meridians crisscrossing. In the center of the network of meridians, there was a milky-white crystal that looked like a grain of rice, glimmering with a faint light.

Then, it should be a monster core.

Gu Qi attempted to approach the Magic Core and instantly felt a trace of a faint and imperceptible strength. Following which, the details of the two innate abilities appeared in his mind.

The first innate ability was called regeneration. Simply put, this could be considered a biological characteristic.

Slime's body had an extremely strong regenerative ability. If he cultivated it to the extreme, he could even regenerate his body and even split it into two. It was extremely terrifying.

Gu Qi sincerely admired this innate ability. At the very least, with this characteristic, he wouldn't need to fear being injured, and it would be even harder for him to die.

However, he wasn't happy at all when he saw his second ability.

This innate ability was called Acidic Breath. To put it bluntly, it was like spitting out saliva, acid with corrosive properties, but it was not strong enough. With his current physique, he probably wouldn't even be able to corrode a single blade of grass.

This ability was his only attack.

Strictly speaking, this ability can't even be considered as an attack. At best, it should just be considered as a taunt, right?

Could he still hope to drown those powerful magical beasts?

Gu Qi laughed bitterly in his heart. However, since he knew he could cultivate, this meant that he still had a chance to transform into his human form. This undoubtedly caused his mood to be much better.

At this moment, the car seemed to have entered the forest and its speed slowed down.

The elders who had been chatting with each other suddenly stopped talking.

There was silence in the carriage.

This caused Gu Qi to feel extremely pained. He thought to himself, "You can say whatever you want, but if you don't, how am I supposed to know where you're going?"

Perhaps the heavens had heard his prayers.

One of the oldest old man suddenly asked, "Have you arranged the matters of your family?"

When the other elders heard this, they raised their heads and expressionlessly nodded their heads.

Their expressions were always solemn. It couldn't be said that they were sad, but they also had a feeling that they were about to die generously.

"That's good. It was almost July, and the beast tide was about to arrive. After the great battle in Blackrock City, many experts had died and had not recovered their strength even now. With our current strength, we won't be able to block this wave of beasts. "

The old man's words revealed slight helplessness.

"Big brother, you don't need to say anymore. Blackrock City is our home. We old bones won't be able to live much longer anyway. We don't blame you for your decision. "

"That's right. Using our dying bodies to exchange for a short period of peace for our descendants, we will die with no regrets."

"Even if we can't kill that Demon Ape after entering the Dawnshroud Mountain Range this time, it would at least cause their essence energy to be greatly damaged. For a short period of time, we cannot organize any more beast tide to attack Blackrock City! "

"With this period of breathing space, I hope that one or two genius experts who can truly shoulder the heavy responsibility will emerge from our clan. That way, even after death, we will still be full of smiles! "

Gu Qi, who was hiding in the corner, couldn't help but feel deep veneration towards these old men when he heard these words.

From the looks of it, it seemed as though they knew that a beast tide would arrive soon. As for their city, due to its lack of strength, it was unable to withstand it.

Therefore, they decided to take the initiative and take the risk of certain death. They would consume the strength of the demonic beasts, thus denying the time for the beast tide to erupt and winning the chance for their own juniors to catch their breath!

"Wait! In other words, these old fellows were going to the Magical Beast Lair deep within the Dawnshroud Mountain Range. Were they going to throw their lives away? "Then if I go with them, won't I …"

Thinking up to this point, Gu Qi was instantly startled and subconsciously wanted to quickly leave this "death train."

However, before he could react, the car had already stopped. Terrifying beast roars came from all directions!
