Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse-Chapter 641 - 434: Dance of a Myriad Demons! (4800-word mega - , Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!)_2
Behind him, the cluster of vines showed no reaction.
In front of him, a few insects lay on the ground, reluctant to move.
When they saw Xu Xin appear, they merely turned their heads slightly and then remained motionless.
He continued moving forward.
Heading towards the towering vine cluster in front.
This time, Xu Xin was not as cautious.
He realized that the other creatures here had no desire to attack him, so he grew progressively bolder.
He picked up his pace.
Of course, caution was still necessary. Utilizing his enhanced hearing, he avoided areas with loud disturbances and moved swiftly ahead.
Within these few kilometers, the scenery of the underground world had not noticeably changed.
The vines remained abundant, giant beasts roamed freely, and giant insects were everywhere.
As a human, he seemed like a tiny ant navigating through the grass.
Keke occasionally called out, warning Xu Xin where not to go and where to detour.
Xu Xin had great faith in Keke and always took the detour.
Thus, apart from being suddenly attacked by an insect, which forced him to retaliate and kill it, nothing else occurred; everything proceeded smoothly.
It’s noteworthy that the insect he slew was the giant millipede he had previously seen hiding in the vine cluster.
Killing them gave 120 points, already equivalent to a mid-level mutated beast, even higher than ordinary mid-level ones.
Yet their strength was even lower than low-level mutated beasts.
Thinking it over, Xu Xin understood.
The blood markings on the millipede indicated it was unlikely to be a mid-level mutated creature; the high points gained from killing it should be due to its giant beast bloodline.
Despite its intimidating appearance, a crawling millipede’s combat power remains low, so growing to three meters in length is of little use.
Its body was quite hard, but Xu Xin’s spear made of purple-grade steel was much sharper than its shell.
Thus, the insect was easily slain by Xu Xin’s spear.
Now he squinted at the vine cluster, which was very close to him.
His landing spot was ten kilometers away from the central vine cluster, and he had been advancing for over an hour rapidly.
Despite the thorny vines and bypassing giant beasts costing him time, he was now less than two kilometers from the vine cluster.
This area was quite different from where he had initially landed.
Firstly, the closer to the vine cluster, the brighter it was around.
If the vicinity of his landing spot was like the light of a rainy dawn, now it was like normal daylight.
Above, the gap a thousand meters off the ground steadily emitted light, illuminating this area.
Secondly, the density of giant beasts here was significantly greater.
Before, a giant beast appeared every half kilometer, each remaining within its territory peacefully.
But here, the giant beasts were less restrained.
Here, the beasts seemed not to have defined territories.
About three to four hundred meters to his left foreground, a giant antelope faced off with a wild bull, each over twenty meters tall, with menacing horns.
About five hundred meters in his direct foreground, two giant pythons were entangled in a fierce battle, with blood and scales flying everywhere.
Even from this distance, Xu Xin could see the scattered blood and scales.
Hmm...
The scales are purple-grade...
These two giant pythons seem not as robust as the Lake Giant Python was before its enhancement, yet their materials were purple-grade too!
When passing by, perhaps he could pick up some scraps.
On his right foreground, about four to five hundred meters away, a giant bear and a giant tiger had just concluded their battle, both withdrew defeated, battered and bruised.
Further away, such beast battles were everywhere.
Yet, much like the bear and tiger, while they fought, they didn’t risk their lives, retreating once the fight ended in a draw or a victor emerged.
What was happening here?
"Huh...?"
Keke suddenly let out a puzzled noise, looking toward the right foreground, tilting its head.
"What’s up Keke, did you find something?" Xu Xin promptly inquired.
"Huh..." Keke withdrew its gaze, shook its head, and snuggled back into Xu Xin’s arms.
Alright then.
Let’s continue ahead.
Just circumnavigate the fighting giant beasts.
The cloak of stealth he wore gave him great peace of mind, though it had seldom been used.
If unsure, just stay put.
Up ahead, the two giant pythons finished their confrontation, slithering away in opposite directions.
Their battle had cleared a large area of vines, creating a smooth ground path.
Xu Xin took advantage of the cleared pathway to speedily move forward.
However, this time, the surrounding giant beasts seemed harder to deal with.
Perhaps due to his swift pace, like a mouse scurrying beneath someone’s foot, he immediately drew the attention of the battling giant beasts nearby.
