Chapter 59: Heartlessness
After ten days like this, the two of them didn't know how many mysterious beasts they had killed, from the panic at the beginning, at a loss, to the later calm observation, looking for a breakthrough, and exerting their strength.
With the continuous fighting, the cultivation of the two of them has risen even higher, coupled with Sun Xiaosheng's guidance from time to time, it can always make the two of them have a sense of openness, and the level of the mysterious beasts that can be defeated is also getting higher and higher, and later the two even killed a 'unicorn' of the fifth-order unified realm.
You must know that the fifth-order unified realm of the mysterious beast is difficult for ordinary martial artists in the early stage of the Spiritual Realm to deal with, not to mention the more powerful unicorn among them, but the two of them joined forces to successfully kill it, which can not be said to be a huge progress.
With the rapid improvement of the strength of the two, they also admired Sun Xiaosheng more and more, although Murong Feifei still talked back to Sun Xiaosheng, but once Sun Xiaosheng made a decision, she would also seriously do what she said.
Because along the way, although Sun Xiaosheng did not kill any more mysterious beasts, and only meditated and cultivated on the side every time, but under his leadership, he did not encounter that kind of irresistible mysterious beasts.
After slashing all the way, he actually collected hundreds of beast cores, of which the fourth-order beast cores accounted for most of them, and the fifth-order beast cores also had nearly ten.
However, the two of them still didn't dare to ask for the sixth-order beast core, after all, it was a Spiritual Realm level Mysterious Beast, and generally the same level of Spiritual Realm martial artists were all just fleeing from the wind.
Now that Long Renming's cultivation has stabilized at the early stage of the Enlightenment Realm, and Murong Feifei has reached the peak of the Returning Realm and has a chance to break through the Enlightenment Realm.
At the same time, the strength of the two of them has risen sharply, and at the same time, it is also strange, why didn't Sun Xiaosheng take this opportunity to kill the mysterious beast to improve his strength, but he just meditated and cultivated on the side.
They didn't know that Sun Xiaosheng's physical body had reached the peak of the mortal realm at this moment, and he could no longer break through with ordinary methods, so he could only break through his own Xuan Qi cultivation.
Otherwise, if Sun Xiaosheng needs to fight to improve his physical cultivation, I am afraid that the Xuan Beasts along the way will not have a chance for them to kill, Sun Xiaosheng will be able to kill them directly, and the strength of the Xuan Beasts that Sun Xiaosheng will deal with will definitely not be so simple.
In the past ten days, Sun Xiaosheng has been holding a Xuanjing in his hand every day to cultivate, although in order to reach the Enlightenment Realm, he can't take the initiative to absorb the Xuan Qi in it, but he can still absorb the Xuan Qi that escapes from it, and his cultivation speed is still much faster, at this moment he is already at the peak of the Bone Casting Period, and he is about to break through to the One Realm.
When Murong Feifei and Long Renming collected the beast core of a fifth-order red-blooded leopard in the cloth bag, Sun Xiaosheng on top of a giant tree opened his eyes, and now that the fighting skills of the two of them were becoming more and more proficient, he didn't need to remind him anymore, he was cultivating every minute and every second.
"Your strength has increased a lot, so let's go to the depths of the outer periphery of the Sunset Forest, find more fifth-order mystical beasts for you to experience, and at the same time encounter weaker sixth-order mystical beasts, you can also give it a try." Sun Xiaosheng jumped down and said to the two of them.
"Okay, cousin, do whatever you say!" Long Renming immediately nodded in agreement, and now he was absolutely unconditionally obedient to Sun Xiaosheng's words.
"Okay, Miss Ben just has some itchy hands, these mysterious beasts are too weak to be enjoyable at all. Murong Feifei held the hilt of the sword in her hand and said with a smug expression, the countless successful killing of the Xuan Beast these days had made her confidence soar.
"Little girl, don't get carried away. Sun Xiaosheng raised his eyebrows and said.
"Hmph, Sun Xiaosheng, my strength is much stronger now than before, you are not necessarily my opponent anymore, I don't believe you can give it a try, and don't call me a little girl, I am older than you!" Murong Feifei looked dissatisfied.
However, before she finished speaking, Sun Xiaosheng was already walking away, completely ignoring it, and the angry Murong Feifei gritted her teeth, eager to go up and bite Sun Dashao.
Despite the noise, Murong Feifei still honestly followed Sun Xiaosheng towards the depths of the outer periphery of the Sunset Forest, and this meant that they might not only encounter more and more powerful Mysterious Beasts, but also people who participated in the trial.
Especially those who have formed a team, a strong team, they may hunt down more powerful beasts in the depths of the periphery.
The three of them walked forward, the forest was still so dark, the soil under their feet was mixed with rotten leaves, and it was very soft to step on, except for the rustle of broken leaves, there was no sound.
At this moment, the three of them have come to a hilly area with uneven terrain, full of strange rocks, and at the same time, they are also overgrown with all kinds of strange flowers and plants, and the three of them have opened their eyes.
Several people turned over a hill, suddenly a breeze blew, flowers and plants swayed, Sun Xiaosheng's nose moved slightly, and suddenly Sun Xiaosheng's expression changed.
"Get down!"
Sun Xiaosheng let out a low shout, and Murong Feifei and Long Renming subconsciously immediately leaned over and lay down in the dense grass, completely covering their figures.
A moment later, there was a hoarse and dry cry of "quack......" from the sky.
Immediately, the top of the three people's heads turned dark, and they quietly looked up, only to see a huge fiery red cloud blowing in the sky.
"This ......"
The three of them took a closer look and realized what kind of dark clouds were there.
It is actually a bird with fiery red feathers, a sharp beak and sharp claws, which looks a little like a crow, but the size is much larger, and it flies from the sky in flocks, looking like at least tens of thousands.
The fiery red cloud moved extremely fast, and in an instant, it had already swept over everyone's heads.
"Huh......" The three of them all breathed a sigh of relief.
"This ...... Wouldn't this be the 'Fire Crow' on the Mysterious Beast Record?" Murong Feifei patted her full chest and said with palpitations, she had also seen this fire crow in the book.
"It must be a fire crow, exactly the same as described in the book, the book says that this fire crow is a fourth-order mysterious beast, and it is also a social mysterious beast, their body temperature is very high like a fire, and what is even more terrifying is that they like to eat human flesh. ”
"Once you are surrounded by a group of fire crows, I am afraid that you will not even have bones left, unless you reach the flying sky of the agile realm, and wave your hand like a mountain, to the point of extraordinary power, you will not be afraid of the fire crow swarm. ”
Long Renming was also frightened, and then he was puzzled: "But shouldn't this flock of fire crows be in the middle of the Sunset Forest, and ordinary high-level mysterious beasts will not be easily provoked, how could they fly to this periphery?"
Sun Xiaosheng didn't say a word, and also frowned and thought.
"Sun Xiaosheng, how did you find this group of fire crows? Why didn't we notice it at all. At this time, Murong Feifei asked curiously.
"Hehe, the mountain people have their own tricks. Sun Xiaosheng just smiled and didn't answer.
Murong Feifei muttered a few words but didn't say anything, Sun Xiaosheng didn't know how many crises he had taken them to avoid along the way.
Often once he encountered a group of beasts, or encountered a mysterious beast with a powerful aura of more than the sixth order, Sun Xiaosheng was always able to lead them to avoid it very accurately, and Murong Feifei didn't know how many times he asked Sun Xiaosheng the same question.
Looking at the curious looks on their faces, Sun Xiaosheng was amused in his heart.
Speaking of these mysterious beasts, although Sun Xiaosheng had never been in contact with them before, and his current understanding was also seen from the Sun family's collection, these mysterious beasts were actually not much different from the mountain spirits and monsters in the Three Realms at the beginning, and their habits were the same.
Sun Xiaosheng was the first to dominate the seventy-two cave demon kings, and he knew the habits of all kinds of mountain spirits and monsters, and it was also applicable to coming to this other world, and he could easily explore the types and strength of these mysterious beasts through some details.
Avoiding the fire crow, the three of them continued to move forward, and on the way they encountered some mysterious beasts, most of them were between the fourth and fifth levels, but they did not encounter the sixth order of the mysterious beasts.
As they went deeper, they finally saw some of the same contestants who had come to participate in the Sunset Trial, but unfortunately they were left with only corpses left in the forest.
They saw at least ten corpses along the way, some of them were torn by wild beasts, some were slashed by blades, some were bruised all over their bodies, and some were directly left with a pile of white bones.
Seeing this scene, Murong Feifei and Long Renming both turned pale, their stomachs turned upside down, and they fell around and vomited.
But Sun Xiaosheng looked at all this indifferently, his countless years of life experience have been seen a thousand times or ten thousand times more bloody than this scene.
Seeing that Murong Feifei and Long Renming had recovered a little, Sun Xiaosheng looked at them and said, "Are you done vomiting? ”
"Ahem...... Sun Xiaosheng, don't you feel disgusting and terrifying?" Murong Feifei asked with a pale face.
"Disgusting, terrible? You think too much, they are just victims of this trial, and death is a kind of destination. Sun Xiaosheng said lightly.
"You're so cruel! They were brutally murdered. Murong Feifei looked at Sun Xiaosheng with an angry face.
"Hehe, you say I'm cruel, then let me ask you, did you ever think you were cruel when you killed the Xuan Beast?" Sun Xiaosheng suddenly smiled coldly and looked at Murong Feifei.
"I'm ......," Murong Feifei's face stiffened when she heard this.
"You don't feel it, do you, because they're beasts, not humans, but aren't beasts alive?
Why do we still kill them, is it fair to them? Aren't we cruel?" Sun Xiaosheng's voice was so sonorous and powerful with every word, like a morning bell at dusk, striking heavily on the hearts of Murong Feifei and Long Renming.
"What I want to tell you is that everyone is cruel, because they will unknowingly hurt others in order to improve themselves, this is inevitable, because there is no justice in this world, we must be cruel if we want to be strong, otherwise you are cruel to yourself!"
"Of course I don't mean you want you to hurt others, I mean, for those who have bad intentions, you must have a heart that is ruthless to the enemy!"
"A heart that is ruthless to the enemy!" Sun Xiaosheng's words made the two of them completely shocked, and they stood in place.
And Sun Xiaosheng's gaze became a little blurred at this moment, he seemed to have seen himself in the sky, traveling in the galaxy, and floating in the sea of blood.
After being silent for a long time, the three of them finally hit the road again, and they didn't talk much on the way, and they were silent a lot.
It wasn't until the early morning of the second day that they finally saw a team participating in the trial, not Shangguan Lie, Murong Feiyun, and Red Eyebrows.
This is a team from outside the imperial capital, organized by a large group of people.
