Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 385 Ambush
Chapter 385: Chapter 385 Ambush
Xiao Zhan had come across an introduction to the Ten Thousand Demon Forest during his time in the Southern Barbarian Lands on the map.
He did not pay much attention to it then.
Now, hearing what Liu Xin said, Xiao Zhan also decided to take a trip there.
"It just so happens that the Ten Thousand Demon Forest is on our way back. We’ll pack some things from Barbarian City to take back for the others, rest well tonight, and set off early tomorrow," Xiao Zhan consulted Liu Xin’s opinion.
Liu Xin shook her head, "That works for me, I have no objections."
The matter was settled.
Xiao Zhan immediately had Wan Lv arrange for people to fetch the good stuff.
Room number one contained the most concentrated wealth of resources in Barbarian City, and Xiao Zhan didn’t even need to go out – just by collecting in this room, he could fill his Dimension Space to the brim.
The next day.
Xiao Zhan left Barbarian City after filling his Dimension Space to the brim.
Of course, ’to the brim’ is just a figure of speech; the Dimension Space was no longer as it was, especially after being tutored by the fake Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan had experienced a qualitative improvement in the use of space, and the capacity of the Dimension Space had expanded several times over.
What it contained were all the things he valued and was able to store.
A group of three set out from Barbarian City.
And the moment they left Barbarian City, a pair of eyes had already reported their movements to someone above.
The Ten Thousand Demon Forest was only thirty kilometers away from Barbarian City; this distance was not far, as driving there would only take about half an hour.
Once there.
The three of them were somewhat shocked.
The entire Ten Thousand Demon Forest was located in a basin, but it was more like a giant crater than a basin.
The outside of the crater was just as barren as the rest of the Southern Barbarian Lands, while inside was another vibrant paradise.
It did not blend in at all.
"The Ten Thousand Demon Forest is not a natural landscape. It was born from the fusion with a Secret Realm and is home to an extremely rich source of Spiritual Medicine. It has always been controlled by Barbarian City, and it’s only with your current identity that you can enter freely," Liu Xin explained.
Of course, by ’freely’, she didn’t mean that only Xiao Zhan could enter.
As they spoke, they came to the entrance.
At the entrance, Barbarian City’s soldiers stood guard, but upon seeing Xiao Zhan, they opened up the path without needing anything else.
It was a joke, who in Barbarian City didn’t know the reputation of number one?
Who dared to be ignorant of it?
After entering the Ten Thousand Demon Forest, it was like stepping into a primeval forest; the air was slightly moist, breathing it felt like it cleansed the lungs, making one feel refreshing from head to toe.
It was completely different from the dry air outside.
Liu Xin led the way, explaining as they walked, "According to previous guidance left by others, the Ten Thousand Demon Flower grows in the very center of the Ten Thousand Demon Forest. There is a sea of flowers there, and after they wither, only one remains alive. The surviving one is the Ten Thousand Demon Flower."
"However, a Sixth Grade Holy Medicine is also guarded by a Demon Beast, so we need to be a bit cautious while acting. Moreover, along the way, the occasional unruly Demon Beast may pop up."
While talking, a rustling noise suddenly came from the nearby jungle.
Following that, a figure resembling a black panther swiftly pounced towards the trio.
Liu Xin’s eyes gleamed as she immediately locked onto this figure, "A Third Grade Demon Beast, Black Cloud Leopard, known for its speed, quick as the wind and shadow. Its weakness is on the third vertebra from the back."
In just a moment, she had identified the data of this black shadow and even pointed out its weakness.
Xiao Zhan acted upon hearing this and, as the Black Cloud Leopard leaped towards him, he too swung a furious punch, using his fists directly without invoking an Artifact Spirit.
His fist slammed into the head of the Black Cloud Leopard.
Instantly, the Black Cloud Leopard became motionless as if struck by lightning, and then the next second, its body exploded into a mist of blood with a bang.
This straightforward and brutal scene stunned Liu Xin.
After a two-second pause, Liu Xin came back to her senses, pulling a stiff and awkward smile on her face.
"I forgot, with your strength, you don’t need any weaknesses."
Her words carried a bit of loss, but she hid her emotions well, and Xiao Zhan did not catch on.
Turning around, she continued to lead the way.
At the same time, at the bottom of her heart, she was more determined to enter into a Contract with Xiao Zhan.
Now that Xiao Zhan was almost beyond needing her weaknesses, and she could no longer keep up with Xiao Zhan’s growth, it was her only chance to Contract with him.
If she missed this opportunity, she would never have another chance again.
They continued on the path.
As the three delved deeper, they encountered several more Demon Beasts.
However, these Demon Beasts were seeking death in front of Xiao Zhan; they were effortlessly crushed to pieces with a single punch, quite like the sense of a War God descending the mountain, very fulfilling to read.
And these effortlessly elegant battles, in Liu Xin’s eyes, only added weight to her mood.
Because every fight where Xiao Zhan dealt with a Demon Beast, he did not exploit the weaknesses she pointed out.
Even though she mentioned them every time, Xiao Zhan seemed to ignore her, acting on his own will and obliterating the Demon Beasts from start to finish with a single punch.
This indifference from Xiao Zhan was a sting to her heart, making her more resolute.
No matter what, she had to successfully Contract with Xiao Zhan.
After about half a day of walking, they arrived at a resting spot.
Liu Xin was slightly nervous, because the area where they were resting was actually where the Su Family had set up an ambush.
She was somewhat worried that the Su Family might kill Xiao Zhan here.
Although she believed more that with her present, Xiao Zhan could survive, it was, after all, a very dangerous thing. If not handled well, not only Xiao Zhan but also she herself might end up dying here.
While she was contemplating, suddenly, Xiao Zhan’s calm voice rang out.
"Come out, stop hiding."
As soon as Xiao Zhan’s words fell, eighteen figures immediately jumped out around them, encircling them in a circle.
All twelve of these people were masked, and Xiao Zhan couldn’t see their faces.
But the aura they emitted was very sharp.
"Three Sixth Grades, three Fifth Grades, twelve Fourth Grades, that’s quite a lineup. Who sent you?" Xiao Zhan looked at one of them.
However, they did not answer Xiao Zhan’s question, instead choosing to act directly.
The twelve Fourth Grade Spirit Masters made the first move, channeling the Spirit Manipulation Energy Power within their bodies while forming hand gestures, linking the energy of the twelve together.
Then, mysterious runes appeared beneath their feet.
The runes connected, expanded, and spread out to Xiao Zhan’s surroundings, forming something like a prison, trapping him inside.
