Looking at the large block of text, Yi Tianchen suddenly realized, amidst a slight dizziness, that the Old Man before him was the only guiding light leading him to the Boundless Land!
Therefore, if Yi Tianchen wanted to find the Boundless Land, he had to first deal with him!
Suppressing his excitement and the chaotic feelings stirring within him, Yi Tianchen temporarily sheathed his weapon. Perhaps this would leave a good impression; after all, approaching someone with a weapon would inevitably evoke thoughts of violence, and he might be mistaken for a bad person.
That would be ominous...
“Old man, why are you all alone in this deep mountain forest?” Yi Tianchen approached amicably, feeling as if he were seeing an elderly person about to cross the street.
“Hmph! Kid, this desolate place is not where you should be; besides, the Old Man is nearing his end and doesn’t need outsiders to worry about him. Just go back where you came from!”
“…”
Yi Tianchen was taken aback, nearly choking on his words. He never imagined that the Old Man's first response would completely shut him down; it was so unexpected!
“No way, I must endure. If I lose my composure, it will lead to extreme words, which will inevitably result in extreme actions, and ultimately, I will lose this only clue!” Taking a deep breath, Yi Tianchen quickly sorted out the current stakes.
“Cough... Old man, you misunderstood me. I’m a very law-abiding citizen!” Ignoring the Old Man's harsh dismissal, Yi Tianchen stepped closer and stood inside the grass hut. He glanced at the small iron pot and asked, “Old man, do you eat only these wild vegetables?”
The Old Man suddenly stood up: “Are you looking down on those who eat wild vegetables?”
“Uh... I... I didn’t mean it that way! I absolutely did not mean that! I swear!” Yi Tianchen stared at the Old Man in shock, momentarily at a loss for words.
“Hmph!”
The Old Man snorted coldly and slowly sat down. He glanced at Yi Tianchen and said, “Fine, considering you are younger than me, I won’t hold it against you. It’s getting late; you should leave now. You are not welcome here!”
“Uh... Old man, what I meant was... what I meant was...”
Yi Tianchen stared blankly for a long time, unable to come up with a coherent thought. Just as he felt he was about to be looked down upon by the Old Man, a sudden spark of inspiration struck him. With a sigh, he said, "Old man, to be honest, seeing you struggle like this reminds me of my late grandfather!"
Sure enough, the Old Man's expression softened slightly, as if he had been touched. The disdainful look in his eyes was replaced by a hint of kindness.
Yi Tianchen felt a surge of joy in his heart; this wild fabrication had finally provided him with an opening. He thought to himself, how could he not handle this old man?
So he decided to press on…
"When I was very young, my grandfather passed away. I don't even remember what he looked like anymore. They lived in a time much like yours, eating wild vegetables and digging up roots; they consumed almost anything green. Seeing you eat wild vegetables makes me… makes me…”
"Ah… young man, you needn't be sad. Without the hardships of the previous generation, how could your generation enjoy happiness? Cherishing the present is the best way to repay those who came before you!"
"Yes, you are absolutely right!" Yi Tianchen exclaimed, tears streaming down his face as he approached the Old Man. "Please wait here; I will go find you something to eat!"
"What… you want to get me something to eat?" The Old Man's eyes widened in disbelief, almost resembling two light bulbs.
"Yes! You must wait for me!"
With that, Yi Tianchen dashed away eagerly—not because he was anxious to find food for the Old Man, but to prevent him from having a chance to refuse.
As the saying goes, it’s easier to accept help when one is already receiving it. If he could fill the Old Man's stomach with something delicious first, how could he possibly hide anything afterward?
Yi Tianchen felt secretly pleased…
Soon enough, he ran about a hundred meters away, his thigh cruelly scraped by thorns, oozing a bit of blood. Yet his heart raced with excitement; this slim hope was almost within his grasp.
Coming to a halt, he pulled out his weapon and wandered aimlessly through the forest. The weak moonlight filtered through the leaves above, casting fragmented shadows that danced with the rustling foliage. In the distance, occasional calls from nameless birds echoed through the woods, creating an atmosphere of desolation.
"Roar…"
Yi Tianchen couldn't help but feel a jolt of excitement, immediately associating the beast's roar with food. In the next moment, he was sprinting through the forest with the Wild Fury in tow, leaping over thickets and brambles as he stealthily approached the source of the sound.
In the underbrush, a large white tiger was leisurely walking among the bushes, its paws rustling through the grass. Its two eyes glimmered with a faint blue sheen, resembling two bright sapphires illuminated by the moonlight.
Not daring to act recklessly, Yi Tianchen carefully concealed his presence and then cast an Identification Technique---
Forest Patterned White Tiger: Common Monster (Beast)
Level: 32
Attack: 450-680
Defense: 380
Health Points: 7500/7500
Magic Points: 1800/1800
Skills: [Tiger Claw Tear Lv-3]
Note: This is a type of white tiger that prefers to be active at night. They often hunt alone in the dense forests under the cover of darkness, possessing formidable explosive power and endurance. Once they set their sights on a target, they will relentlessly pursue it, making them a fearsome species.
Primary Attack Method: With sudden and powerful explosive force, it charges at a single target and knocks it down, using its strong claws to tear into the target's flesh. There is a high chance of inflicting a continuous bleeding status effect that lasts for 5 seconds.
Primary Weak Points: Throat, abdomen, mouth, neck
...
A solitary hunter roaming at night indicated that its night vision would be exceptionally keen. However, being just a level 32 common monster meant that both its attack and defense were not particularly strong; capturing it would be well within Yi Tianchen's capabilities.
It was definitely it!
In the next moment, Yi Tianchen's gaze sharpened, and he thrust the Hundred Steps Flying Sword forward. The massive blade of Wilderness Fury shimmered with a layer of golden light patterns, surging through the air with powerful penetrating force, leaving a striking golden trail behind.
Hundred Steps Flying Sword Lv-1! -1413!
"Roar..."
Hit by the attack, the Forest Patterned White Tiger let out a piercing howl. At the same time, Yi Tianchen activated Savage Charge, propelling himself forward with a 500% Speed boost. He yanked Wilderness Fury sideways, causing the Forest Patterned White Tiger to wail in agony as its Health Points plummeted dramatically.
However, the Forest Patterned White Tiger was not one to simply take hits without retaliating. After being attacked, it swiftly launched a counterattack. One of its claws shot out suddenly, and with a flurry of slashes, it left four bloody gashes on Yi Tianchen's thigh, searing with pain.
Fortunately, the damage wasn't too high and didn't trigger bleeding, so Yi Tianchen paid it little mind. Quickly maneuvering to gain position, he took advantage of the Forest Patterned White Tiger's long body and cumbersome movements to circle around to its back and launched a series of successful strikes.
Thirty seconds later, the Forest Patterned White Tiger was brought down...
