"This Longhu, can you open a path to the outside world?" The old tortoise asked after a slight hesitation.
The suppression of a Supreme Beast was too strong. Even though Longhu's voice sounded like a child's, the old tortoise was still hesitant.
The old tortoise could clearly feel the suppression coming from the soul.
Following the words, everyone's gaze landed on Longhu with excitement, anticipation, and various expressions.
This was a very important question. Even Zi Chen's expression was extremely serious.
If Longhu could open a path, there was no need for him to go against the rules. Besides, Zi Chen had a bold and crazy idea in his mind.
If Longhu could really open a path to the outside world, he would bring a bunch of ancient beasts with him.
The ancient beasts here were stronger than humans in terms of overall strength. The emperor-level ancient beasts could even slay a late-stage Primal Core existence. As for the ancient beasts, they could easily dominate the Chaos City.
Moreover, Zi Chen didn't believe that there were only eight ancient creatures in the Fringe. He believed that there must be more. If he were to bring all of them out, the thought of how the Fringe would be swept clean by the myriad of beasts … Hehe, the corners of Zi Chen's mouth curled into a smile.
"Hey, wake up, you're dreaming." The monk's words woke Zi Chen up from his dream.
"I'm not sure about the details. I need to investigate further." Longhu's voice was immature. He did not give a definite answer.
"There's no rush, let's leave this place first." Zi Chen said.
This time, Longhu did not say a word. The path ahead was opened, and the group left the place.
In the ancient battlefield, the news about the ancient beasts being slain had long spread. Besides, many ancient beasts had sensed the presence of their emperor, thus the ancient battlefield was no longer peaceful.
"Longhu, do you think it's easy for us? We've spent so much effort to come here to search for treasures, ancient herbs, successions, and ancient beasts, but until now, we've found nothing. Once we leave this place, we won't be able to move a single step without any resources." The monk went up to Longhu and complained while touching his dragon head.
"This damned monk, he never changes his greedy nature." Zi Chen cursed in his heart, but he did not stop the monk.
Whether or not he would be able to leave this place alive was still a question. If he gave his friends more resources, their achievements would be higher and they would naturally live better lives.
"Oh, I devoured all of your gains earlier." There was a hint of guilt in Longhu's tender voice. He was indeed very innocent.
"Sigh, let's not talk about this anymore. We're willing to do this because we're friends. This has nothing to do with you, it's all our fault for not being able to kill more beasts." The monk patted Longhu's head and shook his head with a sigh.
"What should we do now?"
Longhu lowered his head and said softly, "Didn't many ancient beasts die before? Didn't you collect them?"
"Sigh, let's not talk about it anymore. The more we talk about it, the more tears we will shed." When the monk heard those words, he shook his head and sighed again.
"Then let's just kill a few more Ancient Beasts. They're all nutrients anyway," Longhu finally said. Clearly, he did not care about the Ancient Beasts here.
"Isn't this too embarrassing? Making a supreme being like you hunt down an ancient beast?" The monk raised his head, his eyes shining.
"Do I have to kill them as well?" Longhu stared at the monk in confusion.
"Sigh, let's not talk about it anymore. The more we talk about it, the more tears we will shed."
Before the monk could finish his words, Longhu nodded his head, "Alright then, I'll do it."
The excited monk suppressed the wild joy that was about to erupt out in his heart and retreated back bitterly. As for the others, they looked at the monk with weird expressions. It was as though they were saying, 'Why do you look so heartless no matter how I look at you?'
The gains this time around were almost enough to break the Heavens. Even the overlord factions would be envious and want to start a war. However, this damned and greedy monk claimed that he did not have any gains at all. He even said that the more he talked about it, the more tears he would shed. Everyone had an urge to rush up and slap this heartless monk to death.
Following that, spring arrived for the monk.
Longhu hunted down the ancient beasts in a simple, direct, and violent manner. Under the might of a supreme being, the ancient beasts were killed before they could even put up any resistance.
At the back, the monk collected the ancient beasts until his hands were cramping.
"Did you see that? Did you see that? This is a real supreme beast. The ancient beasts just stood there and let him kill them without any resistance." The monk exclaimed in a boastful manner.
Compared to the Spirit-Devouring Rats, Longhu who had mastered the rules of cultivation was more sensitive to the ancient battlefield. Apart from killing the ancient beasts with ease, Longhu could clearly sense the ancient ruins and ancient herbs through the force of the rules of cultivation.
As a result, spring arrived for everyone.
In the following journey, Longhu led the group and discovered at least three powerful successions. They also discovered a few powerful ancient battle skills.
After a few days of exploration, the group had a great harvest. Wang Xian 'er, Wang Qiong, and the others had also benefited a lot. There was nothing left for them to stay.
Following this, the group began to make their way back. On their way back, when they passed by the place where they discovered the Sword Stele, Zi Chen signaled the group to stop. He then took out the Sword Stele and showed it to Longhu. At the same time, he asked Longhu to check if there were still any Sword Steles in the area.
He had a feeling that the Sword Steles were a bunch of powerful sword skill successions that represented the pinnacle of the Sword Arts, thus they were quite extraordinary.
The group stayed at the place for two days. During this period, Longhu continuously unleashed the force of the rules to sense the surroundings. In the end, they found another Sword Stele buried deep in the ground a thousand meters away.
Previously, they had found four Sword Steles, and now they found another one. There were a total of five Sword Steles, all of which were kept by the monk.
The group had obtained an unbelievable amount of loot. If they were to sell everything they found after leaving the place, their wealth would be comparable to any faction below the Ruler Faction.
That being said, the wealth of the sect might even surpass the Ruler Faction.
As such, before they left the place, Longhu tore open a rift and discovered a small pool of Primary Liquid. The group was slightly surprised.
The pool contained more than two thousand drops of Primary Liquid. If it were before, the group would be extremely excited, but now, they were only slightly surprised.
This was the third pool of Primary Liquid that Longhu had discovered, and it was the one with the least amount of Primary Liquid.
This time, the Primary Liquid was directly devoured by the Demonic Ape.
In addition to that, Longhu also discovered quite a number of Crystal Ores, which contained pure Qi, which could be used to refine extraordinary weapons of high quality. Besides, they were useful for the Spirit Devouring Rats too. Considering that the group had obtained a great amount of loot, the Crystal Ores were given to the Spirit Devouring Rats.
The latter was extremely excited and expressed its gratitude continuously. It was obvious that even after a few days, it still could not relax in front of Longhu.
Five days later, they returned to the outer area and arrived at the Black Pool.
A year ago, Zi Chen and Tyrant were still being hunted down. They were extremely excited after discovering a Groundhog Rat and slaying it. Tyrant even held onto the excrement of the Spirit Devouring Rat and gnawed on it. Now, a year had passed, and the group's loot had multiplied by a few thousand times, causing Zi Chen and Tyrant to exclaim in astonishment.
It seemed like the only thing left for them were the baptisms and transformations. Apart from Shangguan Bingxi and Wang Xian 'er, the others had joined in the process of dissecting the ancient beasts and retrieved their blood for the baptisms.
During this period, Zi Chen did not waste his time either. He was even more diligent in dissecting the ancient beasts. In his spare time, he would bring Wang Xian 'er around the place, enjoying the rare time they had together.
Longhu had thoroughly familiarized himself with the place, and gave Zi Chen an affirmative answer.
It could open up a path to the outside world, but the condition was that it could only leave on its own. It could not force other ancient beasts to pass through.
Despite being excited, Zi Chen felt helpless at the same time.
Wang Xian 'er was not in a good mood after learning the news. Every time she went out with Zi Chen, she would hesitate to say something.
"You don't have to say anything. Senior has saved my life a few times, I have to bring him away." Zi Chen had made up his mind.
"I'm not stopping you, I just want you to stay alive." Wang Xian 'er's eyes were already red.
The two of them hugged each other, their shadows elongated until the sun set.
The process of dissecting the ancient beasts lasted for a few days. Apart from the first day, Zi Chen was chased away by Tyrant and the others for the next few days. It was obvious that they wanted Zi Chen to spend more time with Wang Xian 'er.
Wang Qiong turned a blind eye to it, as he had already approved of Zi Chen.
Every time Zi Chen returned with Wang Xian 'er, everyone would look at him with strange gazes, which left Zi Chen speechless. What made him even more speechless was that Tyrant was the first one to find him.
"Kid, you won't get another chance like this. If you were to die under the rules, Miss Xian 'er would be …"
Before Tyrant could finish his sentence, he was sent flying with a kick from Zi Chen.
"How indecent."
Shangguan Bingxi, who was passing by, happened to hear Tyrant's words. She glanced at Zi Chen and snorted softly. She had a good relationship with Zhang Haotian recently.
When Zi Chen returned, Wang Xian 'er, who was chatting with Shangguan Bingxi, blushed. Lv Peng looked at him and laughed. Zhang Haotian's cold expression was also holding back his laughter. As for Wang Qiong, who was not far away, his face was dark.
"Brother-in-law, your choice this time is very dangerous. You should at least leave yourself a legacy." Wang Shan quietly came up and whispered.
Zi Chen's face also darkened.
After five days of dissecting, they had dissected many ancient beasts and placed all kinds of materials neatly in front of them.
"With so many materials, if we hand them over to some factions that know how to refine weapons and armor, we can create a legion. Brother-in-law, you will be the legion commander then." Looking at the materials on the ground, Wang Shan, who knew that Zi Chen was going to create a faction, said.
Of course, all of this was on the condition that Zi Chen was alive.
The baptism was imminent. Everyone stopped joking about Zi Chen and started to choose the items for the baptism.
This time, everyone was well-prepared. Other than the Ancient Herb King, they even had spiritual items.
There was no choice. With Longhu around, they had to get spiritual items even if they didn't want to. These things were rarely seen, but with Longhu, spiritual items in the Ancient Battlefield were like cabbages.

PS: I suddenly realized that this book has almost sold for two million, but it still hasn't pushed down the female lead. This makes me reflect. Could it be that the book's results are not good because these factors are not included?
Compared to other books that have three to five chapters of pushing down a woman, and it's not even the female lead, this book is simply too weak in terms of pushing down.
So, I hope everyone can give an honest opinion on whether to push down the female lead or not.
