Since that time, Li Zhirui and Qing Si not only failed to acquire more Spiritual Objects but frequently encountered Chaotic Fierce Beasts, resulting in fierce battles.

Initially, the two did not find this unusual and simply considered themselves unlucky.

But as time passed with no change, they realized it could not be just a matter of luck.

There might be secrets hidden behind this situation that they were unaware of!

"Qing Si, you also originate from the Chaotic Fierce Beasts. Do you know what’s going on?" Li Zhirui asked the local native beside him immediately, hoping to learn something from him.

He shook his head, equally puzzled, and said, "There is nothing about this in the inherited memories I received."

"You don’t know either?"

Li Zhirui was not too disappointed, considering Qing Si and Chaotic Fierce Beasts were essentially different species despite their origin.

Just like the Devil Race and those wild beasts, they might look similar or even have close blood ties, but they are entirely different races.

If possible, he wanted to capture a Chaotic Fierce Beast and ask it what was really happening.

Unfortunately, they lack Spiritual Intelligence, so even capturing one would not yield any answers.

"Whatever, we’ll take it one step at a time." Li Zhirui sighed helplessly.

Although he was confident in his own strength, he was not arrogantly complacent, thinking he could easily defeat all Chaotic Fierce Beasts.

In this period, both of them had encountered Chaotic Fierce Beasts they could not possibly defeat.

If it wasn’t for the space offering him a safe haven, who knows what huge price he’d have had to pay to escape.

The continuous battles were exhausting for Li Zhirui, draining his spirit significantly; he could feel tired too.

Thus, he hoped to figure out why the Chaotic Fierce Beasts had suddenly become so active instead of remaining within their own territories as before.

"If worst comes to worst, let’s hide in the space and come out after a while." Qing Si, having personally experienced it too, knew how exhausted and overworked Li Zhirui had been lately.

"We’ll discuss it then. It hasn’t reached that point yet."

Subsequently, the two continued on their journey of training.

Shortly after setting out, they encountered a violently furious Chaotic Fierce Beast, which charged at them without hesitation upon sight.

Roar!

What came faster than the deafening howl was the shadow it transformed into.

Its speed was such that Li Zhirui didn’t react in time, only managing to hastily deploy defense, resulting in a loud crash that sent him flying backward.

Luckily, he managed to send Qing Si into the space at that moment; otherwise, he couldn’t have taken care of him.

"Cough, cough..."

Fortunately, the Divine Power he deployed absorbed most of the damage, leaving him uninjured despite being impacted with tremendous force, causing his Qi-Blood to surge internally.

Compared to other enormous-bodied Chaotic Fierce Beasts, the one Li Zhirui faced now was much smaller, covered in green feathers, resembling a bird.

"Is it a Fierce Beast skilled in speed?" He coldly eyed the beast a short distance away, considering that if so, the first step was to restrict its space to maneuver!

His hands moved swiftly, countless Spirit Light flying out from them, and upon contact with the Chaos, rapidly expanded into a dense forest.

Almost simultaneously, several tall ancient trees and numerous vines interwove into a cage, trapping the beast.

Having successively exerted two Divine Powers, Li Zhirui’s Mana was greatly depleted; he immediately took a top-grade elixir to expedite its recovery.

His strategy indeed limited the beast’s speed, preventing it from showcasing its advantage.

The beast could only frantically maneuver within the confined space to dodge continuous attacks amidst the forest, further handicapped by Li Zhirui’s assistance from the side.

Before long, wounds appeared across the beast’s body, its aura drastically weakening.

Screech!

The beast screamed in anger and pain, emitting dazzling green light, surrounded by terrifying Gang Wind.

Wherever it passed, even Li Zhirui’s strongest Starlight Vines couldn’t withstand long.

The cage he set up could no longer confine the beast.

However, due to the energy expenditure during its earlier outburst, the beast now appeared excessively depleted.

So upon breaking free, its first instinct wasn’t to continue attacking but to flee into the distance!

A flash of green light passed, disappearing completely in an instant.

Li Zhirui didn’t have time to stop it.

Moreover, he didn’t plan to intervene; he’d rather let it escape if it wanted to.

The sudden battle sparked more curiosity in him as to why at the start, the beast was extremely fierce, seemingly intent on killing and devouring him.

Yet later it calmed down, unwilling to fight further, choosing to flee?

"Is it due to a threat of death?" Li Zhirui felt something was amiss.

Although Chaotic Fierce Beasts tend to escape when sensing mortal danger, the situation wasn’t that dire; it hadn’t reached such a level yet.
