The Great Swamp after nightfall was even more dangerous than daytime.

Many demon beasts had the habit of going out at night and day. They would hide in their nests during the day to sleep, and at night they would hunt for food. They also excelled in using the cover of the night to sneak attack their prey.

As a hunter, Nie Feng shouldn't be walking around in the dark, as it would be easy for him to provoke attacks from demon beasts.

In addition, he was also prepared to fight at any time!

Perhaps it's because of the Star God's blessing. Nie Feng searched for more than four hours and was able to find traces on the ground one after another without interrupting the search. Moreover, there weren't any powerful demon beasts that suddenly rushed out to attack him.

But that luck ended around midnight.

This was because the Hidden Fog Swamp was once again foggy.

No matter how bold Nie Feng was, he still didn't dare to explore the swamp in the middle of a fog-shrouded night. Therefore, he was forced to find a relatively safe place to hide and quietly wait for the arrival of dawn.

It took them a long time to reach dawn.

After hurriedly eating a few mouthfuls of rations and drinking some fresh water, Nie Feng started his journey again.

Due to the thick fog, his search had become very difficult. He was able to find less and less clues, and his chances of finding his way back to the team had become slim.

However, Nie Feng did not give up. As he slowly searched, he would occasionally whistle like a bird — this was the signal that was previously agreed upon in the team. It was convenient for everyone to contact each other while they were unintentionally scattered.

Squeak ~ ~ Squeak ~ ~

Tshh Tshh!

Time slowly passed. Just when Nie Feng was losing his confidence, he suddenly heard screams coming from a short distance away.

Found it!

Nie Feng was suddenly enlivened. The voice that came from the other side was the team's communication signal!

He quickly responded with the same whistle and quickly advanced in the direction of the voice.

"Nie Feng, are you brother Nie Feng?"

After a short while, Nie Feng heard Peng Yi's familiar voice, which was filled with both surprise and expectation!

"It's me!"

Nie Feng couldn't help but loudly answer, his heart was also filled with joy.

The next moment, two figures rushed out from the mist. They were none other than Peng Yi and Hong Lingtong!

"Hahaha!"

Upon seeing Nie Feng, Peng Yi laughed out loud and said, "I knew you'd be fine!"

Nie Feng raised his fist and heavily bumped it against him. Everything was within his heart!

After a short while, Nie Feng and Peng Yi and Hong Jiu returned to the temporary campsite together. There was only one injured person left to guard the campsite. Seeing Nie Feng was also a pleasant surprise.

After another six hours, Wei Liangcai and the other three warriors returned to the camp in two batches.

The team originally had a total of ten members. Two of the members died in the battle that day, so even including Nie Feng, there were only eight left.

The mission of the Fire Clan's assessment was very dangerous. Honestly speaking, it was very lucky to have so many people alive. It was normal for the whole team to be wiped out while taking risks in the Hidden Fog Swamp.

Nie Feng's return caused the atmosphere in the team to become very heated.

Peng Yi told Nie Feng about the incident after he lured away the giant eagle demon bird. After losing two members, the team went back to the camp and tried to find Nie Feng.

During this period of time, they encountered danger several times, and even bumped into other teams. However, none of them managed to locate Nie Feng.

If he didn't meet Nie Feng within the next two days, Peng Yi would be ready to evacuate.

He had to consider the safety of all his members.

Luckily, Nie Feng was safe and sound!

Finally, he asked, "Brother Peng, how many Demon Crystals does our team have now?"

The eight members would need at least eighty demon crystals to complete the mission — without abandoning any of their companions.

As he spoke of this, Peng Yi's expression was somewhat dejected. "There are only 39 of them."

He had no other choice. For the sake of the team's safety, he couldn't go too far from the camp. The difficulty of hunting demon beasts had greatly increased. It was already difficult to obtain 39 demon crystals.

Nie Feng said, "Enough!"

Peng Yi was stunned. "What's enough?"

Nie Feng smiled and said, "There are enough demon crystals. We can go back now!"

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a beast skin pouch, tossing it to Peng Yi. "This is my harvest. Count it in."

Peng Yi took the heavy bag and opened it. He was immediately dumbfounded!

There were dozens of colorful demon crystals inside it!

Nie Feng said, "There are a total of fifty demon crystals here. I told you that my luck isn't bad!"

Actually, his own gains weren't that great, and he had also used up some of his spoils of war. Most of them had been plundered from the bodies of the five young nobles.

Peng Yi was overjoyed. "That's great!"

With these fifty demon crystals and the thirty-nine in his hand, he would need more than eighty of them.

He put all the Demon Crystals together, picked out the best nine, and put them back into the pocket Nie Feng took out. Then, he returned them to Nie Feng.

Nie Feng was puzzled. "What are you doing?"

Peng Yi said in a deep voice, "You risked your life to get it back. You deserved it. If you're a brother, then don't waste your breath!"

The other team members nodded in unison, clearly agreeing with Peng Yi's words.

Without Nie Feng, they didn't know how many of them would have survived the battle with the giant eagle demon bird a few days ago.

Now that Nie Feng had taken out so many Demon Crystals, it was only natural that he would have more than half of them.

The best ones were naturally left to him!

No one objected!
