Chapter 787

A drop of ancient beast blood essence didn't bring much change to Man Hu, but it wasn't completely useless. Judging from Man Hu's expression when he digested the blood essence, the ancient beast blood essence should have helped him a lot.

After giving Man Hu some benefits, Zi Chen was able to sit on Man Hu's back without any qualms. Man Hu also wanted to get some benefits from Zi Chen, so he decided to let Zi Chen do whatever he wanted.

Because of the drop of blood essence, the relationship between man and beast became much closer. Therefore, when Zi Chen was roasting meat at night, Man Hu would also come over when he smelled the aroma.

It was worth mentioning that when Zi Chen roasted meat at night, no savage beast dared to monopolize it even when the flames were blazing. In the past twenty days or so, Zi Chen, who rarely killed, had subdued almost all the savage beasts in the vicinity.

As the king of this area, Man Hu sat beside Zi Chen and enjoyed the food.

Zi Chen was still roasting ancient beast meat. He still had a lot left in his Purple Gold Gourd, so it would be hard to finish them all in a short time. He was happy to share with Man Hu. It was boring to cultivate alone, so it was good to have Man Hu as a companion.

However, Man Hu wasn't just a friend, he was also a good training partner.

In the pitch-black night, the flame flickered. A man and a tiger were eating barbecued meat. Zi Chen also took this opportunity to take out a small bottle of wine to drink. The Barbarian Dragon Mountain Range was extremely dangerous to the Barbarians, but Zi Chen was passing by very leisurely.

After eating and drinking, Zi Chen rubbed Man Hu's head and said, "Little Tiger, how about following me in the future? When I leave, I'll bring you to the outside world to experience it."

Man Hu raised his head and looked at Zi Chen. He was quite intelligent, so he naturally knew that Zi Chen wanted him to carry him. However, Man Hu also had a request. After hesitating for a few seconds, he nodded.

"Haha, not bad. Reward."

With a peak Rank 0 Man Hu as a mount, Zi Chen was in a good mood. He took out a drop of ancient beast blood essence and gave it to Man Hu.

Man Hu swallowed it with a face full of enjoyment.

Suddenly, Zi Chen sensed a familiar aura between heaven and earth.

Zi Chen turned his head, stood up, and looked into the distance. Man Tiger, who was lying on the ground, also stood up and followed Zi Chen's gaze. Apart from the darkness of the night, there was nothing else. He looked at the sky, then turned his head to look at Zi Chen. Man Tiger's eyes were filled with doubt.

Zi Chen looked up at the sky, his expression constantly changing. After a long time, he murmured, "It's here. It's finally here."

Just now, his spiritual thoughts had sensed a familiar aura. This aura originated from the laws of heaven and earth, from the seal of the laws.

Clearly, another outsider had arrived here.

Zi Chen could coexist peacefully with the barbarians in this world, but not with the outsiders. All outsiders were enemies.

Zi Chen felt a strong sense of danger when the outsiders suddenly arrived. The aura of the seal of laws quickly disappeared, and Zi Chen's spiritual thoughts were unable to determine the direction. It was unrealistic for him to immediately go and kill the outsider.

When Man Tiger regained his senses, he noticed that Zi Chen's gaze had turned hostile. Just as he was about to run away, Zi Chen pounced on him.

Beside the fire, the man and beast began to wrestle. Even though it was night time, Zi Chen did not give up on cultivating.

The arrival of the outsider made Zi Chen feel an unprecedented sense of danger. Therefore, he had to take advantage of the fact that the outsider had yet to grow and break all the seals to increase his strength as much as possible.

For the next five days, although Zi Chen had made progress, it was not as obvious as before. He seemed to have reached a bottleneck. Moreover, because he was in a hurry, Zi Chen's increase in strength had slowed down.

Zi Chen knew that it wasn't that his cultivation speed was slow, but that his mentality wasn't right. He was too anxious and hasty.

In order to correct his mentality, Zi Chen gave up on cultivating and focused on refining high grade primeval stones. Zi Chen finally calmed down after a day and a night. But when Zi Chen went to find Man Tiger the next day, he found that Man Tiger had disappeared.

"He's not here? Where did he go?" Zi Chen was stunned when he saw that Man Tiger was not here.

Without Man Hu, there would be no sparring partner. Moreover, in this region, Man Hu was the only powerful sparring partner. Since his sparring partner was not here today, Zi Chen could only look for another sparring partner. In this region, Man Hu was a good choice.

Once he found Barbarian Bull, Zi Chen rushed towards Barbarian Bull and smashed him until Zi Chen exhausted all his strength and Barbarian Bull became dizzy from the smashing.

When the sky turned dark, Zi Chen returned to Man Tiger's place and barbecued meat while waiting for Man Tiger to return.

That night, Man Tiger did not return and Zi Chen felt the law of nature once again. He had just adjusted his mood, but because of the law of nature, he became gloomy again.

On the second day, Man Tiger still did not return and the law of nature appeared again.

On the third day, it was still the same.

Zi Chen's expression became more and more unsightly. Could it be that staying at Man Hu's place was really bad luck, causing outsiders to come every day?

Fortunately, Zi Chen did not feel the law of nature on the fourth night. On the fifth night, Zi Chen, who was sitting cross-legged, heard a sound.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Man Tiger rolling down the mountain. Even though it was night, Zi Chen's eyesight was good and he could see that Man Tiger's body was covered in wounds.

Those wounds looked like they were made by claws. They were very deep and blood was constantly flowing out. Moreover, there were a few fatal wounds on Man Tiger's forehead.

Man Hu seemed to have run all the way back. After rolling down the mountain peak, he stopped moving and breathed heavily.

When Man Tiger heard footsteps, he struggled to move his head. When he raised his head and saw Zi Chen, a trace of astonishment appeared in his eyes.

Seeing Man Tiger's injuries, Zi Chen frowned and asked, "Who injured you?"

Man Tiger growled and his aura became weak.

Looking at the hundreds of wounds on Man Tiger's body, Zi Chen's frown deepened. It seemed that a few Blood Healing Pills wouldn't be enough to heal such heavy injuries. Only a high quality Treasure Pill would be able to heal him.

Man Tiger could be considered Zi Chen's friend and Zi Chen was never stingy with his friends. So Zi Chen took out a Treasure Pill and gave it to Man Tiger.

"Here, swallow it."

The Treasure Pill emitted a dazzling light. After Lin Yun took it out, a rich vitality began to fill the air. Man Hu's eyes widened in surprise.

"Swallow it quickly." Zi Chen took the Treasure Pill and placed it in Man Tiger's mouth.

When a human swallowed a Treasure Pill, it would melt in their mouth and Man Tiger would naturally do the same. A rich vitality spread out from Man Tiger's stomach and flowed through his body, healing his injuries.

Under the naked eye, Man Hu's injuries were recovering at a visible rate, especially the few fatal wounds that were recovering at an even faster rate.

Man Tiger's eyes were filled with shock and disbelief. In less than fifteen minutes, Man Tiger's injuries had basically healed. However, Man Tiger's body was too big and the Treasure Pill couldn't spread throughout his body. That was why there were still a few superficial wounds on his body.

After that, Zi Chen took out a Blood Healing Pill and applied it on his wounds. The Blood Healing Pill was comparable to a small Treasure Pill and Man Tiger's injuries were completely healed.

Man Tiger's eyes were filled with gratitude as he was saved by Zi Chen from the brink of death.

After that, Zi Chen asked Man Hu what had happened. He was so powerful that he had almost been killed.

Man Tiger stretched out his claws and gestured at Zi Chen, but Zi Chen didn't understand. So, Zi Chen guessed and Man Tiger answered.

"Was it a barbarian that injured you?" Zi Chen asked. Man Tiger shook his head.

Zi Chen naturally knew that Man Tiger's injuries were not caused by a barbarian. He was just testing the waters. Then, Zi Chen said, "It was a savage beast."

Man Tiger nodded.

"A Level 0 savage beast."

Man Tiger shook his head.

"A Level 1 savage beast."

Man Tiger nodded.

Zi Chen's face changed when he guessed that it was a Level 1 savage beast. He thought to himself, 'Man, you even dared to provoke a Level 1 savage beast.'

The next step was to guess what kind of savage beast it was. Zi Chen said, "It's a female savage tiger."

Man Tiger rolled his eyes. There was a trace of disdain in his eyes.

After that, Zi Chen started to guess between dogs, lions, wolves, cows, and other savage beasts. However, Man Tiger rejected all of his guesses. Moreover, Man Tiger gestured a lot.

"Isn't a pack of barbarian wolves? If it's not a barbarian wolf, then is it a barbarian rat?"

Man Tiger shook his head and gestured. Zi Chen couldn't guess, so he said, "Could it be a Barbarian Monkey?"

Man Tiger nodded his head and his eyes lit up. Then, he bit Zi Chen's clothes and signaled Zi Chen to go with him.

"You provoked a group of monkeys and got beaten up by their king. Now, you want me to help you get back at them?" Zi Chen asked.

Man Tiger nodded his head, but he quickly shook his head and gestured at Zi Chen again. He stretched out his claws and drew a circle in the air. Then, he opened his mouth and tried to eat the circle.

"You want to eat a monkey's head and drink a monkey's brain." Zi Chen guessed again.

Man Tiger continued to disdain Huang Xiaolong and drew an even bigger circle to show that the monkey's head was this big.

Zi Chen guessed that it was a small monkey, but Man Tiger continued to shake his head.

Suddenly, Zi Chen's eyes lit up. "Fruit, you're talking about a fruit, a Monkey Fruit."

Man Tiger nodded his head and signaled Zi Chen to follow.

When he was in the outside world, Zi Chen knew that there was a tree called the Monkey Tree where the monkeys lived. There were Monkey Fruits on the Monkey Tree. These fruits were very useful in increasing one's Yuan Li and were extremely rare.

There was no Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi in this area, but it actually produced Monkey Fruits. This made Zi Chen very curious. Moreover, there was a Level 1 Monkey King overseeing this place. Since Man Hu wanted to go there, it was obvious that the Monkey Fruits were extraordinary.

Zi Chen didn't say anything and jumped on Man Tiger's back. Man Tiger quickly carried Zi Chen.

They ran for hundreds of miles. Along the way, Zi Chen saw many traces of battle. There were also bloodstains left behind by Man Tiger. It was obvious that Man Tiger fought with the Monkey King.

Of course, although it was called a battle, it was actually Man Tiger running away and the Monkey King chasing after him.

When the sun was about to rise, Man Hu and Zi Chen arrived at the territory of the Monkey Race. But after arriving, Man Hu became a lot more careful.

Zi Chen relied on his powerful spiritual sense and discovered that there were many powerful beasts nearby.
