The darkness in the forest and the roar of wild beasts terrified everyone.
"Catch up, guys! Our targets are high-level beasts that aren't accustomed to walking around at night. However, many wild beasts prefer to hunt at night. We must be careful now!"
It was a big risk to walk into the Barren Wasteland at this time of the night, but it was also the best time to hunt high-level beasts, as they preferred to rest at night.
"Whoosh!"
After a while, several figures jumped out of bushes and stared at the cultivators with green eyes.
With the light of the luminescent stone, they recognized the figures to be Spectral Wolves.
"Deal with them quickly!" As soon as Jared Qi gave the order, Kyle Zhang and Phil Li rushed toward the two Spectral Wolves and killed them in a flash.
"They are only at level three. It's not a big deal!" In a blink of an eye, they had fulfilled their task.
"You! Remove their cardiac cores and put them in this bag. Their fur is worth nothing. That saves you a lot of trouble, pal," Marvin Zhou ordered Darren.
Darren remained silent as he walked to the dead beasts without hesitation. Two balls of yellow light flew into Darren's head.
'Got it! It's much better to assimilate the talent of a level three beast than a level one cultivator of the Yellow Degree. Way to go, Darren!'
Darren was delighted.
After Darren absorbed their talent, he took out a knife to cut open their chests. In a few minutes, he had removed their hearts. And soon, he packed the two cardiac cores into the bag.
"He's not a talented cultivator, but he is a diligent man."
The team restarted their journey in the forest. They were cautious about their every movement for fear that they would wake fierce beasts or step on snakes or poisonous insects.
Kyle Zhang and Phil Li, two cultivators of the fifth stage of the Primary Realm, had killed a dozen level three beasts in two hours.
The main beneficiary, of course, was Darren. He could absorb the dead beasts' talent without any effort. He could also feel that he was closer to level three of the Yellow Degree.
"Jared, why are all the beasts we've met low-level ones? None of them are any worth."
"Be patient! Cheer up, guys! We will make a fortune if we find a Nebula Beast. They are at least at level six. What's more, they are in a deep sleep at this hour."
All the members whispered among themselves while walking, except the girl named Elsa Gongsun. She had been silent all along.
"Be careful, guys! We've come across a level five beast this time," Jared stopped and warned the others.
"Come on! It's just a level five creature. What's the big deal? Phil and I can handle it easily." Kyle Zhang was a bold cultivator. Actually, a level five beast was much stronger than a cultivator at the same stage of the Primary Realm.
