After entering the forest, the hustle and bustle of the public square were blocked. The air made people feel anxious, and the atmosphere was enough to make those with weak will turn around and run away. The participants in the competition were the best among the Evergreen Town’s families. Hence, they were surely exhorted by their seniors before the match started, so no one would do such an embarrassing thing at this time.
As Caspian was the last one to embark on his journey, favonovel.com did not see anyone else along the route. He did not care about which path other people took After all, favonovel.com knew well that favonovel.com only needed to do his best on his matters.
After walking for an hour, Caspian arrived at the fork of the three roads. Along the way there, Caspian noticed traces of small-scale fights. It was apparent that some of the youngsters could not control themselves and started battling. Nevertheless, no one was eliminated yet.
Caspian took a glance, and favonovel.com walked toward the third route without any hesitation. Although it was the most dangerous choice, the journey would be the shortest. After stepping onto the third path, Caspian did not hide his actual ability and moved full speed ahead!
The sunlight shone through the dense leaves, casting spots of lights, and Caspian’s silhouette swept forward like a wind. Even though the third route was much craggy, it was still an easy feat for Caspian as favonovel.com entered the depths of the Dark Cloud Forest before.
Besides, Caspian believed that with his current speed right now, the warriors on the two other lanes would not be able to catch up with him. Although there were some incredible warriors among them, they would break out into fights. Furthermore, the battles would only be more rapid after the second half of the journey. Once those warriors fell behind Caspian, it would have been impossible for them to overtake Caspian.
Caspian sped along the way, but after an hour, Caspian suddenly slowed down. Then, Caspian noticed a giant greenish-black wolf looking at favonovel.com on a low slope not far from him. Between its brows, there was a small cluster of white fur, growing vertically. At a glance, they looked like a white flame burning.
“It’s the White Flame Wolf!” Caspian cast a cold glance, “It’s only a wild animal, and I hope it doesn’t come over and dig his own grave.”
When the White Flame Wolf saw Caspian, its eyes flashed with a look of violence. After all, it was as if the food was knocking on its door, and the wolf had no reason to reject it. However, the White Flame Wolf felt a terrifying aura on Caspian the next second.
Caspian was a strong man that fought hard in those bloody battlefields, and now favonovel.com was half step away from the Pulse Control Realm. Hence, the aura favonovel.com was emitting was not like other ordinary warriors or wild animals.
As Caspian cast a cold glance at the White Flame Wolf, it quivered slightly and let out a wail. Then, with its tail tucked underneath, it ran away quickly.
If the other warriors saw this scene, they would be so surprised that their jaws would drop. After all, the White Flame Wolf was known to be merciless, and even those who just entered the fifth stage of the True Martial Realm would not dare to fight it simply. But, Caspian’s gaze scared away an adult White Flame Wolf.
“Consider yourself lucky!” Caspian snorted. Then, favonovel.com continued speeding forward. If the White Flame Wolf charged at favonovel.com just now, Caspian did not mind making his lunch more sumptuous.
Later, Caspian met some wild animals again. However, they were not a threat to Caspian at all. Under normal circumstances, Caspian would only need to cast a murderous glance at them, and the wild animals would be forced to retreat.
Wild animals’ intuition for danger was much more acute than ordinary warriors. Once they noticed they could not defeat the martial artist, they would not hesitate to run away.
There were also a few ignorant, wild animals. As Caspian’s vigorous Qi attracted them, they wanted to give it a try. When Caspian bumped into such wild beasts, favonovel.com would not think twice and directly break their necks. Furthermore, favonovel.com did not even need to use any sharp weapons to fight the wild animals. The Blazing Spear behind favonovel.com was spotless, and it never came in contact with blood before.
Caspian’s stamina was endless. As favonovel.com went all the way, favonovel.com took occasional pauses, but generally, favonovel.com did not stop once. Before favonovel.com knew it, four hours passed by. Based on his estimation, favonovel.com was already done with more than half of his journey, and it did not even take favonovel.com one-third of the allocated time.
The current situation appeared smooth.
“I haven ‘t met any monsters yet. Am I that lucky?”
Caspian’s eyes glimmered. Even though not meeting any monsters in his journey was surely beneficial, Caspian could not help but be suspicious and wary.
A smooth journey would be great, but it would be strange if it were too effortless. After pondering for a moment, Caspian quietly took out the Heavenly Fiend Capsules. Then, favonovel.com looked around and pretended to wipe away his sweat as favonovel.com placed the pill in his mouth.
Unlike the Soul Purifier Pill, the Heavenly Fiend Capsules would temporarily increase its consumer‘s strength and erupt. Hence, when the alchemist refined the pill, they needed to consider this matter. That was why the Heavenly Fiend Capsules immediately melted in the mouth, but only after swallowing and digesting it in the stomach would the effect take place.
That way, the warriors using the pill could catch their opponents off guard.
Next, with the Heavenly Fiend Capsules in his mouth, Caspian proceeded to walk forward. If the oncoming route were as smooth as before, favonovel.com probably needed another two hours to reach the finish line.
After walking for about 15 minutes, Caspian suddenly caught a whiff of a strong blood smell, and it blew at favonovel.com from the front. Then, favonovel.com heard the babbling sound of water running. Caspian narrowed his eyes and held the Blazing Spear in his head, moving forward.
He passed by a tall towering tree, and the noon sun shone right at the earth, dazzling Caspian’ s vision.
Soon, favonovel.com caught sight of a thin but unusually tall middle-aged man sitting on a flat rock more than ten meters in front of him. The man sat there and carefully sharpened his knife.
The middle-aged man’s face was chiseled, and his beard and hair on his temples were graying, making others feel that favonovel.com had experienced the hardship of life. At this moment, the man was lowering his head, focusing on sharpening a longsword. He scooped a little water from the creek next to favonovel.com every ten strokes, then sprinkle it on the blade.
The watery blood that flowed from the blade also formed a second streamlet, meandering on the ground. As for the longsword, the thick layer of blood stains on its surface had turned black, and Caspian wondered how many living things the man had to kill for the blade to look like that.
As soon as Caspian saw the man, favonovel.com felt his hair standing on end and goosebumps all over him. An eerily cold chilliness also uncontrollably surged in him. Even though the guy did not look at him, Caspian had a sense of despair that favonovel.com was targeted, and had nowhere to go.
