Chapter 404 -281: The Powerful Heritage of the Ancient Beast Mountain Range
“Boom!”
In the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, towering trees collapsed, and Fierce Beasts like small mountains rampaged, seemingly intent on destroying everything in their path.
“First squad, hold the line!”
“Second and third squads, attack from the sides. The weak point of this Fierce Beast is its eyes!”
An officer in the army observed the Fierce Beast before him, giving orders in a calm and composed manner. The soldiers under his command attacked in an orderly fashion. Some were responsible for withstanding the beast’s attacks from the front, while others launched fierce assaults from the sides.
Whenever a soldier could not hold on, others quickly took their place, ensuring no casualties occurred.
As for injuries,
that was naturally unavoidable.
A quarter of an hour later,
the Fierce Beast let out a resentful wail and finally fell heavily to the ground.
“Good, extract the inner core of the Fierce Beast. Divide the remaining flesh, and treat the wounded on site!”
Li Chuan smiled upon seeing this.
The Fierce Beast before them was a Peak of Grandmaster level beast, and its inner core aside, its flesh alone was a great tonic.
According to the latest decree from the Divine Martial Dynasty, all soldiers who entered the Ancient Beast Mountain Range to slay Fierce Beasts could handle the beast’s flesh as they wished, though the inner core could not be consumed privately.
The flesh of a Peak of Grandmaster level beast was not only enough to significantly enhance one’s own strength but also improve the abilities of the soldiers under one’s command.
At this moment,
a faint rumbling sound reached Li Chuan’s ears, and then he saw trees ahead collapsing. The significant disturbance made his expression grow much more serious.
“Such a commotion, it must at least be a Divine Transformation Realm Fierce Beast!”
Li Chuan had no intention of joining the battle.
A Divine Transformation Realm Fierce Beast was not something he could contend with.
As a Centurion in the Divine Might Camp, Li Chuan was only at the Initial Tier of Grandmaster. Though he managed a hundred elite soldiers, dealing with a Peak of Grandmaster level beast was their limit. Facing a Divine Transformation Realm Fierce Beast would be a joke.
The difference between the Divine Transformation Realm and Grandmaster was just one level, but the disparity was astounding.
If they encountered a Divine Transformation Realm Fierce Beast, even a thousand elite soldiers would be useless.
Such high-level beasts were left to the senior officers in the army.
Therefore,
Li Chuan did not pay too much attention to it.
After half a day’s work,
large chunks of flesh had been cut from the initially massive Fierce Beast corpse. Most of the flesh was placed into Li Chuan’s storage bag, while the remaining portion was roasted directly on site.
As he consumed the roasted beast flesh, a powerful and pure energy surged through Li Chuan’s body. He silently closed his eyes, refining this force.
Time passed bit by bit.
After a long while,
Li Chuan opened his eyes, a look of joy on his face.
“The flesh of a Peak of Grandmaster level Fierce Beast is indeed remarkable. Just this piece is equivalent to a month of bitter cultivation for me!”
“If I could take all the flesh from this beast, it would be more than enough to support me in cultivating to the Peak of Grandmaster!”
But fierce beast flesh couldn’t be consumed too quickly; it had to be refined gradually. Otherwise, Li Chuan could confidently advance to the Peak of Grandmaster on the spot.
At this moment,
many soldiers under his command were also gradually refining the beast flesh. Their auras were becoming increasingly powerful.
Seeing this,
Li Chuan felt ever more satisfied.
Since the court decreed action against the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, various armies had entered one after another, commencing a full-scale hunt of Fierce Beasts.
Li Chuan had heard many rumors within the army, such as someone breaking a long-standing barrier through consuming beast flesh, or someone else stumbling upon Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, which enabled them to strengthen and nourish, making their path of cultivation smooth.
It could be said that,
the existence of the Ancient Beast Mountain Range provided many with opportunities to advance further.
Of course,
there were plenty of dangers as well.
Some squads, for example, would unexpectedly encounter powerful Fierce Beasts, ending in complete annihilation without a single survivor.
But any opportunity came with risks. Despite the great dangers within the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, the opportunities were significant.
Li Chuan had been on the path of cultivation for decades, having survived the chaos at the end of the previous dynasty. Anyone who survived that era of natural disasters, human calamities, and maddening Evil Spirits had a great thirst for power.
Later, when Emperor Gu raised his armies, Li Chuan joined the military, rising step by step from a lowly soldier to his current position.
Li Chuan was well aware that his own talent was limited. Without additional opportunities, the level of Grandmaster was likely his endpoint. Advancing further to the Divine Transformation Realm was nearly impossible.
In terms of military position, he had reached almost the end.
To be promoted in the military, one needed more than just seniority; battle achievements and strength were also crucial.
A mere Grandmaster was not considered outstanding in the Divine Might Camp.
Thus,
knowing that the court was to campaign against the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, Li Chuan volunteered to enter at the first opportunity.
For no other reason than to seek a way out of the current predicament in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range.
A day later,
the squad finished their rest.
Li Chuan said in a deep voice, “Take all the Fierce Beast flesh you can carry, then continue deeper to hunt more Fierce Beasts!”
“The Divine Might Camp records achievements through inner cores of Fierce Beasts. This is our chance.”
“As long as we slay enough Fierce Beasts, all of you will have the opportunity for promotion!”
