Xu Ran felt completely at ease, displaying a joyful smile.
Violence is something that can make a man happy.
Just like hunting and fishing.
Many people havenāt experienced hunting, but once they do, they can never forget it. That joy of unleashing hounds on a hunt, aiming at prey and firing, chasing over several mountains, can make a man soar.
And fishing...
Thereās no need to mention it; fishermen persistently go out every day, even if they return with nothing, because the thrill fishing provides surpasses everything else.
Once youāve experienced the joy of returning with a full catch, nothing else compares!
Itās that highest sense of achievement and satisfaction engraved in the DNA of humans!
However.
The Paperman Legionās attack was just an appetizer.
Not stimulating enough!
He was preparing for the most thrilling huntā
After spending fifteen days.
The Paperman Legion had already reached its current kill limit.
Xu Ran laughed heartily. He put them away.
With the Paperman Legion, he didnāt have to worry about being surrounded and beaten. These papermen had raised the kill line to 2.5 million, and even if he were surrounded by a group of Yue Realm monsters, heād be fearless.
Unless he got into big trouble, causing the monster faction to deploy Divine Level creatures and a bunch of top Yue Realm powerhouses to hunt him down.
But heās so cautious.
Would he cause trouble in enemy territory?
Definitely not!
Even if he did, he wouldnāt be surrounded and beaten...
Xu Ran smiled faintly and continued moving stealthily through the vast wind and sand.
Fine sand, gale, and pollution flowed over the boy in an eerie manner, as if they never collided with him. Hidden and invisible, even when darting forward, he seemed to blend into the wind, undetectable.
In the boundless pollution, he was like a tiny grain of sand, a speck of pollution, drawing no attention from any existence.
Another half day of travel.
Night was falling.
Xu Ran saw the mountains, the peculiar trees standing straight, emitting a crimson glow. From afar, the treesā teeth-like arrangement, dense and grim, resembled blood-stained swords, or perhaps a giant beastās gaping maw, waiting for prey to walk right in.
The Heavy Pupil Treasure Skill observed for a while.
No insurmountable danger.
Xu Ran, like a weary bird returning to the forest, landed on the mountain ridge.
"Thereās a mountain king inside. Letās go greet him!"
Xu Ran murmured to himself, eyes calm, without any murderous intent. Crushing an ant brings no murderous intent, does it?
A plain, ordinary breeze slowly fell within the valley.
The filthy pollution flowed on the ground like oil, forming a huge pond, behind which a hundred-meter-tall tree towered into the sky.
The hundred-meter-tall giant tree was as tall as a fifty-story building, taller than some southern hills, looking immensely majestic from afar.
The treeās circumference required ten people linking arms to embrace!
The towering tree was naturally indestructible, its bark repeatedly scraped, revealing the fiery red heartwood inside.
Though the bark was stripped off several layers, you could see the tree slowly healing...
"Itās a peculiar tree; I wonder if it can be devoured to produce Venerable Golden Blood."
Xu Ran shifted his gaze downwards.
Beneath the giant tree, a giant python was coiled.
It was like a thick tree root.
Emitting a green glow, its scales were dotted with black and gold spots, densely covered, with a Qi Blood Value of 4 million.
It was a Crystal Beast, a snake with a human head.
Yet half of its face was only bare white bone, with red flames dancing in the eye sockets, the other half a ghastly female face, expressing alternately weeping and smiling, with a look of grievance and joy, its expression exceedingly obsessive.
Xu Ran thought of the beautiful snake in Lu Xunās writing.
Silently, a Seed of Faith shot out, striking the skull snakeās forehead.
After Xu Ranās Qi Blood Value reached 400,000 points, his Seed of Faith became stronger, more unstoppable!
Once hit by Xu Ranās Seed of Faith, even if someone were ten times stronger than Xu Ran, they would feel that Xu Ran is its nemesis, and thus develop an insurmountable fear.
This was terrifying!
Because in the laws of the Cosmos, such a nemesis naturally suppresses their bloodline! Instinctively inducing fear, impossible to dispel!
Unless they had immense determination, but those with immense determination were at the Divine Level.
A mere beautiful python with a Qi Blood Value of 4 million was not in that league!
The beautiful snakeās scales suddenly opened completely, and it frantically and hurriedly shot upward to flee.
However, Xu Ran had already "unsheathed his sword to help."
The beautiful python was torn apart.
"Thatās better. Now I wonāt have to be afraid anymore, hehe."
Xu Ran laughed fiercely.
At five years old.
He vividly remembered a little girl drawing dozens of little red flowers on his drawing paper...
Then.
The little girl died.
Though it was the work of Ghost creatures.
Yet in Xu Ranās eyes, whether they were Resentful Beasts, Crystal Beasts, or Ghosts, they all deserved to die!
He was exceedingly violent! And he did nothing to hide it.
"How smelly!"
After the beautiful snake died, it quickly began to rot, with bizarre insects crawling out from the gaps in its corpse.
Xu Ran shook his head.
He did not act to destroy the evidence; on one hand, he hadnāt mastered the Flame Talisman.
On the other hand, he intended to stay in a nearby mountain tonight, avoiding making too much commotion and attracting other monstersā attention.
He treated the elimination of the beautiful snake as a kind of warning to his opponents.
He glanced around.
"Can this tree be devoured?"
Xu Ran sensed the tree was unusual.
Flying up, he sliced the giant tree from top to bottom, cutting the massive trunk embraced by dozens in half, making a crackling sound as it fell.
Monsters in the distance scattered in panic, flying away in droves.
