Exiting the valley, David followed Viola to the edge of a forest. Viola halted and pointed to the woods, saying, “This forest is the Beast-Sight Forest. It houses various levels of exotic beasts, many of which are fierce and even possess enhanced intelligence.”
As Viola spoke, a hint of seriousness crossed her face, and the Kui tribe members behind her couldn’t help but swallow nervously. Their gazes toward the forest were filled with apprehension, indicating that they were well acquainted with the horrors within.
David observed the forest, where a large amount of black aura billowed into the sky, intermingled with strong malevolent energy. David realized he was in the right place,only the exotic beasts here could provide a challenge for him.
No matter how intimidating Viola’s words were, David’s expression remained unchanged. Viola, who was observing his reactions closely, hoped to detect a hint of nervousness, but to her disappointment, David’s face revealed nothing but ease and relaxation.
Viola’s admiration for David grew stronger. Even for her, the Kui tribe queen, venturing into this forest required careful consideration. Normally, they didn’t dare to hunt here; even a random exotic beast in this forest would surpass all the other exotic beasts in their appearance. Therefore, among the Kui tribe, this forest had another name: the Forest of Death.
“Are you going in?” Viola tentatively asked, though she found the question somewhat unnecessary. But David nodded decisively. He knew this wasn’t just about hunting; he was here to earn pronucleus.
If a high-level mutated crocodile could yield a fragment of The Wand of the Wasteland, then what treasures could be extracted from the terrifying exotic beasts here? Without hesitation, David stepped into the forest.
Seeing his actions, Viola clenched her teeth and followed suit. The other Kui tribe members gripped their steel knives tightly, their faces filled with fear, trailing behind. Just as they entered the forest, a terrifying roar that shook the heavens and the earth echoed in their ears!
“Purple-Gold Winged Tiger!” Viola froze upon hearing the sound, and the Kui tribe members behind her began to tremble.
“It’s just the sound of a beast. What’s there to be afraid of?” David cast a glance at the frightened tribe members.
Viola calmed down, manifesting an exquisitely wrought hollow iron fan in her hand. Cautiously surveying the surroundings, David recognized it as her weapon.
“The Purple-Gold Winged Tiger is the most ferocious exotic beast renowned in the wasteland world. Unlike regular exotic beasts, it has mutated with intelligence and even grown wings. Once it launches an attack, all enemies become food in its eyes. I’ve fought against it before; if not for the terrain advantage, I probably wouldn’t have survived until now,” Viola’s expression carried a touch of embarrassment. Her strength as the queen of the Kui tribe was undeniable. Yet, even so, she wasn’t a match for the Purple-Gold Winged Tiger, which spoke volumes about its terrifying power.
“Should we… find another place?” Viola started to regret bringing David here.
“No need. I want to see what the hype is about.” David’s face remained unchanged as he continued forward.
“But…” Viola wanted to say more, but David picked up his pace.
“For the base, for the delicious meat, we’ll risk it!” Helplessly, Viola leaped forward to catch up, instructing a few of her subordinates to stay behind. Otherwise, even if they entered, death would still await them.
David’s speed was astonishing. In no time, he had flown several hundred meters ahead, with Viola barely managing to keep up. Just as he touched the ground, a snake, about ten meters long with colorful scales, appeared before them.
“This is the Seven-Toxin Python. It attacks with venom and is incredibly fast,” Viola explained as she also spotted the snake. .
David nodded, observing the Seven-Toxin Rainbow Python. Their presence seemed to excite the snake greatly. It violently twisted its body, lifting its tongue high, repeatedly hissing and spewing out crimson snake venom from its mouth.
With a slight smile, David raised his hand and aimed at it, softly uttering, “Corrode!” A piercing sound followed, and a plume of white smoke erupted from a spot on the snake’s body. Within the smoke wafted a charred scent.
The Seven-Toxin Python seemed to have been hit at a vulnerable spot. Its body convulsed and rolled on the ground in agony. David didn’t give it a chance to recover. He tore open a spatial rift, wielded the Space Blade, and instantly appeared by its side. The blade sliced across the python’s head, emitting a faint sound of flesh being cut.
Having used both the spatial rift and the Space Blade simultaneously, David’s attack dealt 80% critical damage and the effect of super-heavy injury. The Seven-Toxin Python stopped convulsing, and its massive head slowly tumbled to the ground. Blood spurted out like a fountain. From the appearance of the Seven-Toxin Python to its death at David’s hands, the entire process took less than two minutes.
Even within those two minutes, Viola only saw David raise his hand once and swing the blade once. Other than that, there were no other movements. Seeing the dead Seven-Toxin Rainbow Python at David’s feet, Viola took in a sharp breath. She had witnessed the prowess of the Seven-Toxin Python—its attacks were relentless and its potent venom was lethal. Any contact with it would mean certain death.
Yet, such a formidable exotic beast, in front of David, hadn’t even managed to launch an attack before becoming a corpse. This made Viola understand why David’s expression hadn’t changed when he heard about the horrors of the Beast-Sight Forest. In this human, she saw strength,a power that crushed everything and transcended all.
“Is that all?” David looked at Viola.
Viola smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing the Seven-Toxin Python and obtaining one Advanced Pronucleus!]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering a one hundred times critical hit, obtaining one hundred Advanced Pronuclei!]
The system’s voice rang in David’s ears. Indeed, being a creature of the forest, this Seven-Toxin Python yielded advanced pronuclei.
David nodded to himself. He then placed his palm on the python’s corpse to extract something.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for extracting a vial of poison—Throat-Sealing Venom!]
[This venom can cause death in enemies below Level Twelve within three minutes!]
After tossing the vial of venom named Throat-Sealing Venom into the system’s storage, David stood up.
“Roar!” A violent roar echoed again, even closer this time and louder! Viola gripped her iron fan tightly, standing next to David. In the next moment, a terrifying aura rushed toward them!
