In the end, Li Yunqing and Zhong Li left Shi Village. During their time outside, the jade pendant given to Li Qinghu and Li Tianqi kept triggering, and unable to do anything about it, Li Yunqing had to return repeatedly, ultimately leaving behind a clone to accompany Li Tianqi and Li Qinghu.
They wouldn’t be gone for long; just a few days later, they would return. It wasn't far at all, but Li Qinghu missed Li Yunqing so much that he insisted on keeping him around, leaving only the clone behind.
As they exited Shi Village and left the Liu Shen protection zone, the absence of Liu Shen's aura allowed them to encounter numerous Wild Beasts. In the wilderness, aside from humans, all Wild Beasts were massive, with adult Wild Beasts generally exceeding ten meters in size. The larger the Wild Beast, the stronger its power was likely to be.
The purity of a Wild Beast's bloodline often correlated with its size; the more potent the bloodline, the larger the beast. Of course, there were exceptions. Some Wild Beasts had fully developed physical attributes without any bloodline enhancement and lacked real strength; they merely appeared fierce.
Li Yunqing observed these Wild Beasts and couldn't help but feel that they resembled exaggerated versions of animals from his original world. Zhong Li looked at the group of Wild Beasts before them and stroked his chin. They were indeed large in size, but their combat prowess seemed inferior to that of his old friend—the Ruo Tuo Dragon King.
Although the Ruo Tuo Dragon King was not as large as these Wild Beasts, its strength far surpassed theirs.
As Li Yunqing and Zhong Li watched the Wild Beasts engage in a fierce battle among themselves, they went unnoticed by the two small humans at their feet. Even if they had been seen, it was unlikely they would have drawn any attention. The Wild Beasts of the wilderness were powerful creatures that had rarely encountered humans; thus, they were unaware of the formidable strength that could reside within such small bodies.
The two groups of Wild Beasts continued to harm each other until only one remained—a creature resembling a giraffe. With its towering body and sharp teeth, its thick fur was torn apart by other Wild Beasts, blood flowing freely from its wounds. The giraffe lowered its head to feed on some of the fallen Wild Beasts' carcasses before collapsing heavily onto the ground.
Li Yunqing and Zhong Li approached the giraffe. The giraffe had never seen such small beings before and looked at them with curiosity. However, it merely regarded them with interest; it assumed that such tiny creatures could not possibly pose any threat to it and chose to ignore them.
The resilience of the Wild Beast was remarkable; before long, the wound on the giraffe had stopped bleeding and was slowly beginning to scab over.
Zhong Li glanced at the giraffe's injury. It seemed to be on the mend. Should he kill it now?
Li Yunqing observed the giraffe, reaching out to touch it. The giraffe showed little reaction, merely feeling a bit itchy.
Never mind, it was just a minor conflict with a Wild Beast after all, and there was no real reason to kill it.
Li Yunqing had no intention of taking the giraffe's life; its appearance reminded him of home, evoking a sense of familiarity.
"Let's go," he said, moving deeper into the wilderness. Zhong Li took one last look at the giraffe before following in Li Yunqing's footsteps.
The giraffe watched as what it considered a weak Wild Beast dared to venture into the depths of the wilderness, somewhat surprised but ultimately indifferent, thinking it was merely seeking its own demise.
As they continued deeper into the wild, the Wild Beasts here were much more cautious; after all, stronger Wild Beasts possessed greater intelligence. They valued their lives more and would not engage in combat unless they were certain of victory.
Of course, this did not apply when it came to competing for treasures or precious items.
Compared to steady cultivation, sudden opportunities were far more appealing to the Wild Beasts. Encountering a suitable treasure and consuming it could provide years' worth of cultivation benefits.
Li Yunqing and Zhong Li encountered many Wild Beasts fighting over treasures; they intervened without concern for whether these creatures resembled Earth animals or not. Nostalgia was one thing, but treasures were another matter entirely.
At this stage, it was still Zhong Li who took action. After all, since mastering bone manipulation, his strength had increased significantly; however, he had not felt much change while sparring with Li Yunqing—only that his defenses had become stronger.
It was only through battling Wild Beasts that he realized how much he had improved. Previously, he might have shattered his own Shield Attack; now, strikes against his shield barely caused a ripple.
With a casual wave of his hand, a flurry of Rock Spears shot forth, instantly piercing through the Wild Beasts. The Rock Spears were more penetrating and faster; combined with the large size of the Wild Beasts, even though they were quick, they could not escape Zhong Li's Rock Spears.
After dispatching them easily, Zhong Li felt considerably lighter in spirit. Although he was usually calm like a Rock God, being constantly overshadowed by Li Yunqing had affected his mood somewhat.
Zhong Li unleashed a flurry of attacks on the Wild Beasts, regaining his confidence. However, when he caught a glimpse of Li Yunqing watching with keen interest, he quickly averted his gaze.
He had forgotten that this pervert could replicate abilities; surely, Li Yunqing had mastered it by now.
Li Yunqing, on the other hand, had no particular thoughts about it. Zhong Li was still only a novice in using bones, and compared to Li Yunqing's proficiency, he was far behind. He was simply curious to see how Zhong Li's strength would change once he learned to manipulate bones. It seemed that mastering this skill could indeed lead to rapid improvement in power, although it was somewhat difficult to comprehend.
This wasn't a problem for Li Yunqing, as he possessed the Inheritance Ball, which allowed him to pass on his knowledge of bone manipulation to others. He had intended to share this with Zhong Li before, but Zhong Li had declined.
"I prefer to learn knowledge gradually rather than understanding everything in an instant," Zhong Li had said, and Li Yunqing respected his choice.
Li Yunqing collected the corpses and blood of the Wild Beasts; these would be quite useful for the people of Shi Village. Finally, he gathered the Bao Yao. The Wild Beasts had fought fiercely for this precious gem, yet they were swiftly defeated by Zhong Li.
Feeling around, Li Qinghu noticed that she hadn't used her jade pendant. It had been ten days since that day, and ever since she had been with Li Yunqing, she hadn't needed to use it again. With Li Yunqing always by her side, it felt as if the real Li Yunqing was there with her, so there was no need for the pendant anymore.
