Chapter 36

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The few demonic beasts that appeared in front of Yu Guang had huge bodies. Other than the giant ant, the two behind them did not even care about these few pieces of meat. They did not even have the need to hunt for food.

To the Crimson Red Mantis and the Burning Red Falcon, he might be like an earthworm to a human. Thus, Yu Guang had never understood why in the giant beast movie, the monsters that were several stories tall would chase after a specific person. Such a small amount of meat wasn’t even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth. Why bother?

“None of them are what I want.” Yu Guang put away his Eye of Identification and hopped between the stone pillars.

The Eye of Identification showed that the Burning Red Falcon’s quality was indeed not bad. If he were an A rank, he might have chosen to tame it. Unfortunately, it was still far from his expectations.

He continued to shuttle through the stone pillar forest.

The center of the mystic realm was indeed a good place. The giant fire ants at the lower end of the food chain could be considered top-notch beasts in the outside world. However, not everyone had the opportunity to look for demon beasts in the mystic realm to sign a contract. Moreover, the beasts in the secret realm were very wild and were not so easy to tame.

He ran for an hour, and the lava in front of him became blurry. Yu Guang found a few more demon beasts of good quality, but they were still a little far from his expectations.

The glaring glow of the lava under his feet made his eyes uncomfortable. Eventually, he could not support himself to continue moving forward. Yu Guang rubbed his eyes and decided to go back first. Otherwise, he would have to stay here and become blind.

He returned to the edge of the mystic realm’s center. There was a cliff there, and Yu Guang left the igloo there.

Ice cubes had two effects, cooling and hydrating. It was something that the mystic realm’s demon beasts could not get enough of. When Yu Guang returned, the igloo was already surrounded by a circle of demon beasts.

A Sun-devouring Leopard was rolling around the igloo like a kitten, its barbed tongue lapping at the top of the ice structure.

Yu Guang’s talent was still there, so the ice cube would not turn into water. However, the cold temperature was also very attractive to the beasts. The leopard was like a domestic cat that was attracted by catnip, and its throat made a comfortable gurgling sound as it dominated the igloo.

Beside it, there were other weaker demon beasts squatting and waiting. They were like jackals and vultures waiting for a lion to eat its dinner so that they could pick up the leftovers. They stretched their necks and waited for the Sun-devouring Leopard to leave.

Yu Guang stood on the high ground and saw the food chain below clearly. The Sun-devouring Leopard’s strength was not bad, but seeing that the other demon beasts were afraid and did not dare to fight with it for the igloo, it could be seen that it was at least a king that dominated an area.

However, seeing that it licked the entire house full of saliva, Yu Guang’s interest in the Sun-devouring Leopard instantly decreased by half. He leaped over the surrounding demonic beasts and directly landed next to the leopard.

The ice house was about the same size as the sun-devouring leopard’s nose. No matter how sensitive it was, it would not react to Yu Guang who was next to the ice house. It might be like when a mosquito appeared next to a popsicle, whether it cared or not depended entirely on its mood.

Yu Guang easily dodged the leopard’s big tongue and returned to the house through the water curtain.

The light in the house flickered with each flick of the leopard’s tongue. It was like a light tube used in a horror movie to create an atmosphere. Yu Guang was speechless as he sat next to the bait solution and rolled his eyes at the tongue above his head.

Perhaps the Sun-devouring Leopard’s diet was very complicated, and its saliva dripped to the door, bringing with it a strong smell of rotten meat. Its oral hygiene was really worrying.

If it was just lusting after the light, he could still tolerate it, but throwing a biological weapon was unacceptable.

He picked up the bait solution on the ground, his slender fingers holding the mouth of the bowl. Beads of water the size of Buddha beads slowly floated up, condensing into an ice bead in Yu Guang’s palm.

He could not move on the magma from a long distance, so he would let the demon beasts report here automatically! At the same time, he could also get the Sun-devouring Leopard to give up on the igloo.

Yu Guang stood at the lookout. While the leopard was resting on its tongue, he quickly removed the ice on the surface. The ice bead was sandwiched between his two fingers, hitting the stone pillar at the edge of the cliff.

Pa!

The soft sound didn’t attract any demon beasts’ attention. The ice bead broke into pieces, and brown liquid splashed out onto the rugged stone pillar. The water vapor quickly evaporated, and only the solid god-tier bait was left attached to the uneven stone wall.

The smell burst out in an instant, more effective than any sound. The demon beasts surrounding the igloo turned their heads in unison, pouncing toward the stone pillar like crazy.

At first, there was only a slight tremor. The remaining bait solution rippled in the bowl. Yu Guang hurriedly picked up the thing to prevent it from spilling out. He knew that this was only a small movement. The real big movement was still to come!

Rumble!

Rumble!

The rolling sound came from afar and came closer. The ground trembled like thunder. Yu Guang held onto the wall of the igloo and looked out.

Thunder and lightning flashed in the depths of the magma. With a brief flash of lightning, a large wave of demon beasts was attacking. Each of them was flashing with a greedy red light. They were opening their bloody mouths and rushing over.

The cruel competition had already begun! The beast tide was carrying many demon beasts, and there were too many weak beasts that were pushed aside or fell into the magma. Only the truly strong could reach the other side.

The Sun-devouring Leopard left the ice house and also headed toward the stone pillar. It raised its thick paws and slapped away the demon beasts that were blocking its way. The scene was very chaotic.

Thousands of demon beasts were attracted by the god-tier bait and rushed over from all directions. Yu Guang was glad that he didn’t sacrifice all of the bait solution. Otherwise, the demon beasts would tear down the mystic realm during the fight.

As the demon beasts gathered, roars and wails rose and fell, and energy gradually gathered in one place.

At the same time, the other five people who were in different parts of the mystic realm sensed the terrifying energy and simultaneously raised their heads to look toward the east. Not only them, but Captain Lu and the others outside the mystic realm also felt it.

“What’s going on with this enormous energy? Is the mystic realm about to explode?” Ke Zhen said in surprise, clutching his head.

The powerful energy created a pressure that made his temples throb.

Le Tai looked at the screen. Other than the area where Yu Guang had turned black, the others were still within the surveillance range of the true eye bug. He said worriedly, “If the five children are fine, then isn’t Yu Guang the one who’s in trouble?”

Ke Zhen admired Yu Guang and said anxiously, “When will the technicians arrive? Didn’t they say it’ll only take five minutes? Where are they?!”

“Old Ke, it’s useless to be anxious. Before the technicians arrive, you’d better prepare for the rescue first,” Captain Lu said while holding his forehead.

Although he had emphasized that they would enter the mystic realm to rescue, no one organized it. Since the entrance to the mystic realm would teleport randomly, it would be hard to do it without communication. Death was only a matter of time.

“Hurry up! If we wait any longer, Yu Guang’s corpse will be gone!” Ke Zhen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He hated himself for being a rough man and not knowing anything about sophisticated equipment.

“Sorry for the wait! Hahaha!”

A hearty laughter interrupted the anxious crowd. A white parachute appeared in the sky with the words “Beastmaster Association” printed on it. The man with the cheerful smile was wearing a white coat and plaid pants, and he slowly landed in front of everyone.
