Chapter 129 Leaving the Dragon's Nest

"Kunpeng Transformation!" As Ying Yue's clear and delicate voice rang out, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth, instantly condensing into an extremely large image of a Kunpeng in the air.

This Kunpeng is so lifelike, it seems to possess boundless power and majesty, inspiring awe in those who behold it.

The enormous Kunpeng swooped down on its opponent with overwhelming force, moving with lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, it had reached its opponent, spreading its broad wings to tightly envelop it, rendering it unable to move.

The creature enveloped by the Kunpeng was none other than the Level 3 Savage Beast that the group had previously tried to avoid—the Golden-haired Lion.

At this moment, despite the Golden Lion's desperate struggle, it seemed so insignificant in the face of the Kunpeng's immense power.

Not long after, the once majestic golden lion finally gave way and collapsed to the ground.

"Awooo..." With a furious and shrill roar piercing the sky, the golden lion finally closed its eyes in resentment.

If you look closely, you can see that there is a terrifying hole about one meter square in the chest of the golden lion.

Inside the cave, blood and flesh were mangled, and a mixture of red and white liquid flowed out continuously, staining a large area of ​​the surrounding land red.

Clearly, this fatal blow took the golden lion's life, leaving it with no chance of survival.

If Ying Yue, who had just entered the Fusion stage, were to encounter this golden-haired lion, which was of above-average strength among the third-level beasts, alone, she would probably only be able to flee in panic.

After all, there was a difference in their strength between them, and the other party was a very powerful being in the middle stage of the third level.

Fortunately, she was accompanied by two human powerhouses whose strength was comparable to that of a low-level fourth-grade savage beast.

The terrifying aura they exuded put unprecedented pressure and fear on the Golden Lion, to the point that in the battle, the Golden Lion could not even exert half of its usual strength, let alone go all out.

It should be understood that the difference between realms is like a chasm as vast as heaven and earth. Under such immense pressure, the Golden Lion was filled with nothing but fear, and had no will to fight.

In contrast, Ying Yue, protected by her companions, had no worries and could boldly unleash her full strength.

The difference is obvious when compared.

The golden lion ultimately died a miserable death at the hands of a human who was clearly weaker than itself.

As long as they don't encounter the three lords and their top experts, they can now roam freely across the wilderness!

Therefore, unless facing a level four beast, Kuang Zheng would always have Ying Yue take action to fight.

The benefits of doing this are obvious. Not only can Ying Yue become more familiar with the initial stage of Mind Fusion in actual combat, but she can also use combat to hone her skills and apply them at a new level.

Because of her tremendous increase in strength and her ever-improving mastery of combat skills, Ying Yue is now completely different from before.

The first move of "Phoenix Transformation" is "Kunpeng Transformation"!

Now she can do it with ease, and when she does it, it is as smooth and natural as flowing water, completely unlike the awkward way she used to have to exert all her strength to barely manage to do it.

This is what she has gained in the nearly one month since she left the dragon's nest.

Of course, Wu Ren and Kuang Zheng are not only protecting Ying Yue. When they encounter a level four beast, they will not hesitate to take action.

They knew that cultivation level was not the same as strength, and that in order to maximize the strength of a certain realm, they had to find a way to achieve it.

Besides external forces like magical artifacts and treasures, what's even more important is to comprehend combat techniques and tactics, as well as the precise control of the magical artifacts within the body, through countless life-or-death battles.

This is why cultivators at the same level can have vastly different strengths.

Only by constantly teetering on the edge of life and death can one continuously unleash their potential.

Only through constant combat can one master martial arts techniques and skills, until they become an instinct of the body.

Only by expending the spiritual energy within the body to the extreme can every bit of spiritual energy be used to its fullest potential.

These can only be obtained through constant battles. Meditation and cultivation all day long only improve one's cultivation level, and one can never unleash one's full potential.

That's why the three of them resolutely left the comfortable and peaceful dragon's nest.

Of course, challenges are meant to unleash one's potential, not to send oneself to one's death.

Kuang Zheng, a mid-level fourth-grade beast, could only manage one or two moves, but he struggled against anything higher.

If they were to encounter a powerful level-five beast, let alone rectify them, even if all of them were combined, they would only have one option: to flee in panic.

After all, the power of a level 5 beast is far beyond what ordinary people can contend with; its terror is simply beyond imagination.

Fortunately, in the current wilderness, level four beasts are already considered overlords.

As for the even more terrifying fifth-level realm, apart from those renowned generals belonging to the three major territories, the rest are extremely rare, and it often takes a long time to catch a glimpse of them.

The reason for this is that when a wild beast successfully breaks through to the fifth level, it means that it has the potential to transcend tribulation and take human form.

Therefore, these powerful beasts usually choose to hide deep within their own territory and cultivate diligently, while paying almost no attention to what is happening in the outside world.

As long as you don't rashly trespass into their territory, there generally won't be any problems.

The group's initial purpose in coming to the wilderness was to resolve the inheritance within their bodies and improve their cultivation. Therefore, unless they were in a desperate situation with no other options, they would not provoke those powerful alien beasts.

That is why, with their current strength, they can move with ease in the wilderness.

If it weren't for the enormous threat posed by Zhu Xian, the wilderness would practically be their second home.

With practiced ease, Ying Yue removed the beast core from the golden lion's body.

With just a thought, the glowing core of the third-level savage beast in her hand vanished instantly.

At the same time, in his mind, a brand new golden lion beast core appeared in the purple dragon ring on his finger.

More than a month has passed since I left the Dragon's Nest.

During this period, the three of them honed their combat skills.

Whenever they encountered a beast of similar strength along the way, they would attack without hesitation.

After this period of hunting, the harvest has been quite substantial.

However, what worried Kuang Zheng was that they hadn't encountered a single search team in all these days.

The teams that were supposed to be searching for them suddenly vanished without a trace, as if they had disappeared into thin air.

Wu Ren offered his opinion on this, suggesting that it was highly likely that Noguchi Ridge had withdrawn its forces after failing to locate the individuals for an extended period.

After all, more than a year has passed, and the other party might think that something happened to the three of them.

Because the vast wilderness is so immense, the more you learn about it, the more you will be amazed by its boundless expanse.

Compared to the human world, the wilderness is the true protagonist of Penglai Planet.

That is why there are so many unknown areas in it.

These places are not only beyond the effective management of the three major territories, but even the three lords themselves have never set foot in them.

After all, even Kuang Zheng couldn't say exactly how far the lake at the entrance to the Dragon's Nest was from the core areas of the three lords.

For this reason, Ying Yue agreed with Wu Ren's analysis.

She felt there was another possibility: that Zhu Xian's influence was difficult to extend to this area.

For this reason, they never encountered any search teams during this period.

As their understanding of the wilderness deepened, their knowledge of this vast and boundless land also became more profound.

Although the three lords claimed to have absolute control over the core area of ​​the wilderness.

However, in reality, the area they were truly able to effectively govern was limited to a radius of only tens of thousands of miles.

Once this range is exceeded, not to mention control, even awareness is severely lacking.

Although no wild beast dared to openly challenge the supreme authority of these three lords, their control over such remote areas was indeed quite limited.

Given this situation, both Ying Yue and Wu Ren believed that Zhu Xian was very likely to back down.
