Chapter 299: Chapter 1: The Unknown Jungle

Pain…

Especially pain…

Especially in the chest, the place where he was attacked, Lin Jing couldn’t stop breaking out in a cold sweat from the intense pain.

Lin Jing distinctly felt that at least seven or eight ribs in his chest had broken.

In addition to that, there were some injuries on his arms and legs, some wounds were so deep they reached the bone.

The reason for this was…

…an accident occurred during teleportation.

Lin Jing didn’t know what had happened; he found himself teleported to this place.

And as soon as he was teleported, Lin Jing was attacked.

It was a Demonic Beast in the Golden Core Stage with the form of an ape that attacked Lin Jing the moment he appeared.

The freshly teleported Lin Jing had not even had a chance to see what was in front of him when the suddenly appearing ape-shaped Demonic Beast struck him in the chest with a punch.

Fortunately, his reaction was timely, and he managed to condense several layers of a Spiritual Shield.

Otherwise, that strike would have been enough to pierce through him.

After being sent flying by the attack, Lin Jing quickly regained his senses.

Before the ape-shaped Demonic Beast could charge at him again, he entered the System Space; facing an attack from a Golden Core Demonic Beast, Lin Jing would have undoubtedly died had he not hidden within the System Space.

At this moment, Lin Jing looked at the wounds on his body and couldn’t help but shake his head and bitterly smile.

He was unclear about where he was.

He didn’t even know if he was still in the Eastern Spirit Realm.

However, Lin Jing felt a violent shaking in the middle of his teleportation, and next, he found himself here.

Lin Jing felt…

…that there might have been a slight accident with this teleportation.

However, now was not the time to ponder these things.

Lin Jing used his Spiritual Power to stabilize his injuries and then immediately went to the Alchemy Room where he sat down cross-legged.

Next, he pulled out a top-quality Rejuvenation Elixir from his Storage Bag, swallowed it directly, and then started to meditate for recovery.

Lin Jing needed to recover his injuries as quickly as possible and then explore to ascertain his location so he could make plans.

…

About four hours later, Lin Jing ceased his meditation and opened his eyes.

The effect of the top-quality Rejuvenation Elixir was certainly not as good as that of the Pure Elixir, but it was still quite evident in healing Lin Jing’s current injuries.

In less than four hours, the injuries on Lin Jing’s body had mostly recovered.

Seeing that his injuries were no longer serious, Lin Jing got up and after a moment of contemplation, he summoned the system.

“System, enter Observation Mode.”

As Lin Jing’s words fell, his vision began to blur, and in a short while, his perspective appeared outside.

As soon as he emerged, he saw lush verdure.

It was clearly a dense forest.

Lin Jing quickly turned his viewpoint to look around; the ape-shaped Demonic Beast was nowhere to be seen.

Lin Jing then raised his perspective to try and see the overview of the area he was in.

As his perspective rose higher and higher, the area Lin Jing could observe also expanded.

The full extent of the dense forest was revealed to him, and it was unlike any forest Lin Jing had seen before.

There were mysterious trees hundreds of meters tall, flowers the size of a house whose names he didn’t know, and colorful and splendid vines covering a large area…

Lin Jing even noticed many Demonic Beasts moving through the dense forest.

It was as if this was a paradise for Demonic Beasts.

“Couldn’t this be a teleportation to a secluded mountain area within some Demonic Beast tribe’s territory?”

Seeing this scene, Lin Jing couldn’t help but think to himself.

Because the dense forest looked far from ordinary, not the kind where humans would commonly visit.

Just then…

A beast’s roar drew Lin Jing’s attention, and he quickly changed his observational perspective to look in the direction of the roar.

He saw two gigantic tiger-shaped Demonic Beasts, several meters tall, facing off against each other. Both tigers were in an attacking stance, growling deeply, with their gazes firmly fixed on each other.

Two giant tigers assumed attack postures, and it looked like a fight was about to break out.

At that moment,

a black shadow darted out at an extremely fast speed, arriving beside one of the giant tigers. As it swept past one of the tigers,

the tiger’s head exploded on the spot.

The other tiger, upon seeing this, lost all its previous momentum, tucked its tail, and was ready to flee.

However, the shadow was even faster.

Just as the tiger made a step, the shadow had already caught up.

Following that, the other giant tiger also “thudded” to the ground, silent.

Lin Jing watched this scene and fell silent at once.

He had recognized the black shadow as soon as it appeared.

It was the same ape-like Demonic Beast that had attacked him upon his arrival.

It seemed Lin Jing had been teleported into its territory.

Fortunately, Lin Jing had made some prior observations.

Otherwise, had he recklessly ventured out, it likely would have been another dangerous encounter.

Lin Jing then did not exit Observation Mode but continued to observe.

He saw the ape-like Demonic Beast fumble inside the battered skull of the giant tiger. Before long, it pulled out a black, spherical object.

Lin Jing recognized it.

It was indeed the Demonic Beast Inner Core of the giant tiger.

Following that, the ape-like Demonic Beast opened its mouth and tossed the Demonic Beast Inner Core into it.

It was at this moment, an unexpected change occurred…

A Golden Giant Eagle with a wingspan of several tens of meters cried out sharply and swooped down from the sky.

The ape-like Demonic Beast, upon hearing the cry, instantly became subdued.

It wanted to escape, and it was very fast…

In the blink of an eye, it had darted hundreds of meters within the dense forest.

Yet, the Golden Giant Eagle was even faster.

The ape-like Demonic Beast had only managed to escape this few hundred meters when the Golden Giant Eagle caught up.

The eagle’s talons were incredibly sharp, measuring over a foot long, and it pierced directly through the skull of the ape-like Demonic Beast with one swipe.

Then, with a flutter of its tens of meters long wings, it grabbed the ape-like Demonic Beast and flew up into the sky.

The ape-like Demonic Beast, after struggling for a while, hung limp and motionless beneath the eagle’s talons.

……

Lin Jing, having witnessed this scene, took a long time to recover his senses.

If he was not mistaken, that Golden Giant Eagle should be a Nascent Soul Level Demonic Beast.

This place was too terrifying.

Lin Jing couldn’t help but feel mixed emotions; he really wanted to ask Huang Qingling what place this was.

He just wasn’t sure if Huang Qingling knew.

Lin Jing speculated that Huang Qingling may not even be aware that his teleportation had gone awry, sending him to this incredibly dangerous forest.

Afterward, Lin Jing continued his observations and even tried to probe further into the distance.

However, even at the maximum range of Observation Mode, Lin Jing still did not obtain the information he desired.

After finishing his exploration, Lin Jing exited Observation Mode.

He then furrowed his brows to ponder his next strategy.

Firstly, he needed to figure out where this place was.

Whether it was part of the Eastern Spirit Realm or not.

Next, he had to find a way to leave this place.

The area was extremely dangerous; at the very least for Lin Jing, it was so.

Just the thought of the ape-like Demonic Beast, which had injured him with a single punch and was powerless under the eagle’s talons, made his scalp tingle.

Lin Jing knew the dangers here certainly extended beyond what he had seen.

In this unfamiliar dense forest, there were undoubtedly many more dangers awaiting him.
