Chapter 156 - 156 Heading to the High-level Area
Qian Hai, Gu Xuan, and the others had also obtained their desired spirit light monsters.
The monster tide finally stopped, but unfortunately, Lu Benwei did not get a general-level spirit light monster.
After circling the valley a few times and confirming that there were no more general-level spirit light monsters, Lu Benwei sighed in disappointment.
“Brother Lu, don’t worry. We’ll go to other places.” Dugu and the others suggested.
Lu Benwei shook his head. “Forget it. We’ve wasted too much time in Clear Light Valley these past few days. The general-level spirit light monsters in the mid-level area should have been completely captured by now. Even if there is, we students have caused such a big commotion these few days. They should be hiding and not coming out.”
Hearing this, everyone sighed in disappointment.
“What do we do now? Brother Lu, it can’t be that you don’t have a spirit light monster, right?” someone asked.
Lu Benwei frowned and pondered for a while. “The way I see it, we can only head to the higher-level regions.”
A high-level area?! Dugu and the others were shocked.
“So many days have passed, and only the second class elites are left in the high-level areas. The elites of the Heavenly God Temple are among them. Brother Lu, you’re sending a sheep into a tiger’s mouth!”
Lu Benwei did not mind. “The spirit hunt secret realm only opens once every five years. I’ll leave Zhejiang Hunter University five years later. This is the only chance I have in my life. I’m more or less regretful that I didn’t leave a footprint in every corner of the spirit hunt secret realm.”
When Dugu and the rest heard this, they scratched their heads in embarrassment. “Brother Lu, you’re so smart.”
Then, they laughed at themselves. “We can’t do it. We’re not strong enough. Even if we have the intention, we’ll be robbed when we go to the high-level area.”
“It doesn’t matter. As long as you calm down and continue to improve yourself, you’ll grow to an unparalleled height one day!” Lu Benwei comforted them.
Lu Benwei paused and turned to ask, “Chu Yan, do you want to come with me?”
“No, I’ve been running around in the secret realm for the past few days. I didn’t get a night of good sleep, and my face is already wrinkled.”
Lu Benwei understood Chu Yan’s meaning and no longer insisted.
“Then, everyone, I’ll see you at school!”
“Brother Lu, take care. I’ll apply to join the God Slayer’s Club when I get back!”
…
Lu Benwei came to the high-level area alone. When he reached there, the terrain had a huge change.
The low-level and mid-level areas were mostly plains and few valleys, while the high-level areas were full of mountain peaks that reached the clouds.
One by one, the mutant pine trees took root in the cracks of the rocks. It was a very strange sight.
Lu Benwei had just stepped into a mountain when a roar sounded. The mountain trembled and huge rocks rolled down.
A violent wave came, and Lu Benwei retreated.
A golden spirit light leopard roared and opened its mouth, ready to swallow Lu Benwei.
He did not dare to be careless when he came to the high-level area. He circulated the power of his five bloodlines and released a terrifying aura.
The golden spirit light leopard immediately shuddered and spat out several mouthfuls of blood.
Lu Benwei threw a punch, and the golden spirit light leopard fell to the ground.
‘As expected of a high-level area. I had to activate my bloodline power to kill a spirit light monster,’ Lu Benwei cursed in his heart.
However, if this sentence was heard by others, the corners of their mouths would twitch for a long time. It was unknown whether the golden spirit light leopards were located in the periphery or the center of the high-level regions, but they were the kings of the spirit light monsters.
After absorbing the golden spirit light leopard’s spirit light, Lu Benwei continued to move forward.
At the same time, on another mountain.
The fourth-year senior Hou Yuanhua spat on the ground and said, “Damn it, I’ve been waiting for half a day and I still don’t see any third-year students coming back.”
“Sigh, if it wasn’t for the fact that we can’t go to the mid and low-level areas, we would’ve made a fortune long ago,” a fat man beside Hou Yuanhua said.
His name was Wei Ren, and he was a scoundrel friend of Hou Yuanhua.
Two days ago, Wei Ren had suggested setting up an ambush at the periphery of the high-level areas and robbing the sophomores who were curious about the high-level areas or the third-year students who had returned from trading at the junction of the mid-level areas.
“Why didn’t they go to the border area, or to the depths of the high-level area to rob students of the same grade?”
The former was the sudden appearance of two fourth-year students, and everyone knew what they were thinking.
The latter was because there were too many monsters in the depths of the high-level area, and the two of them could not beat them at all.
The two of them waited from morning to night for two days in a row, but they only robbed a curious second-year student. Although he had a lot of spirit light power, it was not worth it for the two of them to share it.
At this time, Lu Benwei slowly walked over. Although he was surprised to see the two, he did not want to pay attention to them and continued to walk in front of them.
As the other symbol on Lu Benwei’s chest was too conspicuous, Hou Yuanhua and the other two were in a daze.
“Old Hou, I’m not seeing things, right? He’s a freshman?” Wei Ren rubbed his eyes.
“Nonsense, I’m not blind.”
Clearing his throat, Hou Yuanhua said sternly, “Stop!”
As an assassin, Wei Ren took out a ceramic dagger and said fiercely, “I opened this road and planted this tree. If you want to pass through, leave some money here!”
When he saw Lu Benwei again, he was already in front of him.
“Boom!”
The next second, Lu Benwei punched Wei Ren and sent him flying. Then, he turned to Hou Yuanhua and said, “Senior, do you need something from me?”
Hou Yuanhua was speechless. He knew very well what kind of person Wei Ren was. He was 1.6 meters tall and heavy, yet he was sent flying by a freshman just like that.
He swallowed his saliva and asked, “Junior, we just want to ask what your name is.”
“Lu Benwei!” Lu Benwei’s expression was very indifferent, which made Hou Yuanhua’s heart tremble. At the same time, he felt that the name Lu Benwei was very familiar.
Just then, Wei Ren crawled back, covered in mud.
A fourth-year student being sent flying by a first-year student, how was he going to survive in the school if word got out?
“Junior, I only wanted you to leave some money to pass through, but you attacked me when I was unprepared. Without a few hundred bottles of spirit light power, this matter won’t be over!”
“A few hundred bottles of spirit light power?”
Lu Benwei’s expression became playful and the two people muttered in their hearts at the same time.
“Pa!”
Lu Benwei swung his arm and slapped Wei Ren’s left face.
“You dare to hit me?”
Wei Ren was stunned, and he flashed the dagger in his hand and stabbed at Lu Benwei. However, Lu Benwei’s speed was so fast that he slapped Wei Ren’s right face.
Wei Ren’s strength immediately dissipated. His wrist shook violently, and the dagger fell off. The next second, there was another “pa” sound as Lu Benwei attacked from the left and right.
