The rogue cultivators still reluctantly paid the one thousand taels and continued following behind the Iron Bones Clanging Sect to scavenge what they could.

This was because while they were resting, the rogue cultivators had mustered the courage to enter the passage leading to the spider nest, where they saw spider corpses piled throughout the vast tunnel.

Good heavens!

All the spiders had been killed?

Continuing deeper, after seeing the corpse of the Great Poison Spider King, they became convinced that the Iron Bones Clanging Sect was truly powerful!

Not continuing to follow them, not going deeper to scavenge—that would absolutely be a loss!

Moreover.

While Jun Changxiao was leading his disciples to kill spiders, some people had searched the first gourd-shaped opening and found quite a few valuable medicinal herbs and ore.

The rogue cultivators eagerly anticipated entering the next area, where the Iron Bones Clanging Sect would exterminate all the fierce beasts inside, allowing them to scavenge safely without worry.

Jun Changxiao, leading his disciples into the canyon-like tunnel, was thinking that it would be best if the next area had fierce beasts even more impressive than the Crimson Flame Wolves.

…

Passing through the windless tunnel entrance, what appeared before their eyes was a dense forest, with the occasional smell of feces in the air.

Jun Changxiao raised his Type 88 sniper rifle and scanned once with the see-through function, discovering that this area concealed twenty to thirty fierce beasts of various forms, whose strength should be no weaker than the Mountain-Bearing Bear.

Killing them one by one would definitely be slow.

So he ordered Xiao Ziji and Li Yuhua to continue acting as meat shields, entering the forest to lure a few out.

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

Before long, four massive fierce beasts were attracted out.

From the aura they emanated, their strength should be between peak Wutu and first-rank Wushi.

Because they were ugly, Jun Changxiao didn’t use the Sect Master Ball and ordered his disciples to kill them directly.

Boom!

Boom!

In a few moments, the several fierce beasts that had been lured out fell dead under the encirclement and killing by the Iron Bones Clanging Sect disciples.

Facing wolf packs and spider swarms, because the numbers were too great they would be somewhat troublesome, but dealing with this kind of individual fierce beast was quite easy.

Xiao Ziji and Li Yuhua continued entering the forest, luring out fierce beasts one by one.

Among them were even two great gorillas. After dealing with them, the count for hunting this beast type increased from one to three.

Half an hour later.

All the fierce beasts in this area had been completely killed, and the disciples began collecting crystal cores and hides and bones.

The rogue cultivators standing at the tunnel entrance all had their mouths twitching violently.

Twenty to thirty fierce beasts, the weakest comparable to peak Wutu, were completely exterminated by the Iron Bones Clanging Sect without breaking a sweat—truly terrifying!

Swish! Swish!

After Jun Changxiao led his disciples away, they swarmed forward to begin butchering the beast meat. Due to spatial ring limitations, some even threw out gorilla meat.

Lucky rogue cultivators could still find medicinal herbs and ore in rock crevices and tree hollows. Although the good ones had all been taken by the Iron Bones Clanging Sect, at least they could sell what remained for some small money.

…

No one knew how many gourd-shaped openings there were in Death Valley.

However, as long as the Iron Bones Clanging Sect entered, the fierce beasts that had lived there for years would suffer calamity.

“Boom!”

Another great gorilla crashed to the ground with a thunderous sound, announcing that this area had been cleared.

“Ding! Hunted Great Gorillas 10/10.”

“Ding! Host has completed one fierce beast prey count. Epic quest completion 40%. Host receives 200 contribution points.”

“Ding! Contribution points: 925/1000.”

Jun Changxiao didn’t plan to continue grinding, but first bought 4 bottles of aptitude modification liquid suitable for mid-grade spiritual roots.

Being able to modify disciples’ spiritual roots, this item was worth buying even if he purchased all of it.

Jun Changxiao said: “It’s getting dark. Let’s rest here for the night.”

“Yes.”

Everyone began using spider silk to construct temporary tents, then had several disciples take responsibility for keeping watch.

“Whoosh, whoosh!”

A campfire was lit, flames rising upward.

Jun Changxiao once again demonstrated his roasting meat skills to his disciples.

The rogue cultivators in the distance, seeing the Iron Bones Clanging Sect dared to light fires and roast meat in Death Valley, were immediately filled with admiration to the point of prostrating themselves.

The night passed without incident.

Early the next morning, Jun Changxiao led his disciples to continue searching for tunnel openings and continue slaughtering fierce beasts.

Of course, not everything went smoothly.

Occasionally they would intrude into the territory of fierce beasts comparable to Wuzong level. Fortunately everyone ran fast and were able to escape with some danger but no harm.

“Go, Sect Master Ball!”

In a certain gourd-shaped opening, Jun Changxiao threw out the Sect Master Ball, hitting the head of a majestic tiger beast.

The result was that it failed to subdue it, instead further enraging the other party, who directly roared and charged over!

Damn it!

Why didn’t it work!

The system said: “Low-grade Sect Master Ball can only capture low-level fierce beasts.”

“Crap.”

With no other choice, Jun Changxiao could only order his disciples to kill this tiger beast.

“Good heavens, that’s a fierce beast comparable to peak Wushi!”

“The Iron Bones Clanging Sect disciples are too amazing!”

“Especially that Xiao Ziji, he actually fought the tiger beast in close combat with just a pair of fists!”

The rogue cultivators following behind were shocked beyond self-control by the powerful performance displayed by the Iron Bones Clanging Sect disciples.

…

As they continued deeper, the fierce beasts in each gourd-shaped opening became increasingly higher level, and their numbers became fewer.

Powerful fierce beasts all had their own territories and would often occupy an area alone.

Of course.

The medicinal herbs and ore levels were also increasing.

For example, after clearing one area, Su Xiaomo found a piece of obsidian weighing a full ten pounds.

With this, they now had the materials for forging a low-grade Overlord Spear.

Swish!

Jun Changxiao opened the Forging Pavilion. Once the ore and fire source were automatically matched, forging began.

Half an hour later.

A pitch-black long spear was forged.

The low-grade Overlord Spear’s base also had a small groove opening. By infusing a crystal core, activating the function, it would shoot out an energy wave at the moment of thrusting.

…

Entering another area, Jun Changxiao took out the Overlord Spear and thrust it toward an attacking fierce beast, shouting: “Spear Strikes Like a Dragon!”

“Bang!”

The spearhead flashing with light, upon thrusting out, immediately shot forth a stream of flowing light, directly killing on the spot that fierce beast comparable to mid fourth-rank!

Everyone’s eyes widened in unison.

“Good heavens.”

Su Xiaomo walked over and exclaimed: “Sect Master, your weapon can also unleash energy similar to spiritual power martial techniques?”

“Impressive, right?” Jun Changxiao said.

“Impressive!”

“Take it and play with it.”

Su Xiaomo, receiving the Overlord Spear, looked stunned for a moment.

“Swish!”

Shortly after, holding the spear she charged into another tunnel, her entire body emanating an aura of even if the enemy outnumbers me, this general can still take the enemy general’s head from among ten thousand troops!

“Ah ah!”

“Sect Master, quickly save me!”

However, having just gone in for a short while, Su Xiaomo was seen running back out holding the spear, with over a dozen wolf beasts with purple fur instantly charging out behind her, wind spirals swirling beneath their feet.

“Not good!”

“It’s Swift Wind Wolves!”

“We’re finished, finished. We’re all going to die here today!”

The rogue cultivators were terrified beyond measure.

But no one fled backward, because Swift Wind Wolves were renowned for their speed. Once targeted, there was simply no escape.

At this moment they could only place their hopes on the Iron Bones Clanging Sect being able to exterminate them all!

“Aooo!”

The dozen or so Swift Wind Wolves were truly fast. Even with Su Xiaomo using Ghost Vertical Steps, the distance was still being closed infinitely.

Jun Changxiao’s gaze, however, grew fervent.

These wolf beasts were not only quest targets, but judging from their build and fur, they were much more handsome than the Crimson Flame Wolves.

If he could capture one with the Sect Master Ball, it would absolutely be awesome!

“Get out of the way!”

Sect Master Jun pulled out the Sect Master Ball and shouted.

Su Xiaomo, running, twisted her body.

“Go, Sect Master Ball!” Jun Changxiao infused spiritual power into his arm, then threw it forcefully.

“Whoosh—”

The Sect Master Ball shot forth explosively, flying toward the Swift Wind Wolf at the very front. Just as it was about to hit, the wolf opened its large mouth and spewed forth a gust of fierce wind.

Sect Master Jun, afraid of killing the target, hadn’t used much force. The Sect Master Ball was immediately blown away, then landed in the distant mountain forest.

“Ding! Capture successful!”

What?

It could capture even when blown away?

Jun Changxiao hurriedly looked over, and saw a plump little thing carrying the Sect Master Ball in its mouth, its gaze flashing with humanized worship as it came running over.

Large ears, a long snout…

What the hell!

This is a little wild boar?!
