Chapter 359: Chapter 178: Distress Signal_2

Everyone had brought food and water in their storage spirit tool, having made preparations before coming for this training. They were all aware that the preparation training for a reserve demon hunter wouldn’t be easy, so everyone made sure to prepare adequately.

During the night rest, Tao Linlin’s role was fully displayed. She released her summoned birth sign beast, the Demon Suppression Tree, which rooted itself in a relatively high position. The tough branches of the Demon Suppression Tree hung down, forming a natural outer barrier to shield everyone. The Demon Suppression Tree could nourish itself from nutrients in the soil which was quite different from normal summoned beasts that couldn’t last for long. There was no issue with its prolonged existence.

Moreover, Ling Menglu’s Luminous Angel Spirit Furnace was also present! Now, the Luminous Angel Spirit Furnace sat atop of the Demon Suppression Tree. Its gentle golden halo descended, merging into the Demon Suppression Tree which in turn amplified the life energy fuelling the Light Element Angel. They complemented each other splendidly.

In front of everyone, Long Dangdang and their team couldn’t practice with the Wisdom Spirit Furnace, as everyone only just started their cooperation. Their core secret had to be retained. Nonetheless, Long Dangdang released the Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace, allowing the Vast Ocean, Elemental Vortex, and Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnaces to merge, creating a Celestial Abyss Ocean.

This was a cultivation method slightly second to the power of the Icy Moon Angel’s moon spirit. The spiritual power in this great forest was extremely abundant. The vast amount of spiritual energy, especially those with an element of life, poured in from all sides. Everyone felt somewhat suffocated by the overwhelming spiritual power.

This method of cultivation was something the other four had never experienced. Facing the surge of massive spiritual power, their ecstatic entrance into a meditative state was even delayed.

The feeling was simply splendid. A night’s cultivation left everyone feeling as though their meridians were swollen. Wang Changxin reaped the most benefits. As her outer spiritual power reached the 6th Rank, the upper limit of her inner spiritual power changed to 7th Rank. With a high external spiritual power level of 4000, her physical endurance was very strong, far surpassing the others. Thus, in absorbing the spiritual power brought by the Celestial Abyss Ocean, she could accommodate the most. After a night, she clearly felt that her inner spiritual power had increased several times more than usual.

Although focusing on training both the external and internal was a very painful cultivation direction, it must be said that physical endurance truly exceeded that of the same-level professionist. But before, Wang Changxin could only follow the routine for cultivation. Having a mighty physique without enough spiritual power to absorb was of little use. However, the Celestial Abyss Ocean was as though it was custom made for her. Without testing, she felt that her inner spiritual power may have increased over twenty points after a night. Following this pace, in at most a year, her inner spiritual power could touch the boundaries of the 7th Rank. Although there was a need to spend a lot of time improving her outer spiritual power, the quick improvement of her inner spiritual power could save her much time.

Therefore, when she woke up in the morning, her gaze at Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong had clearly softened and become friendlier.

Everyone else also benefitted greatly.

Ming Xi came over to Long Kongkong, her gaze somewhat strange as she looked at him.

"What’s up? You’re pretty good-looking too, but I’ve already got someone I like, no need to obsess over me, I’m just a legend," Long Kongkong arrogantly said.

"Ugh, who’s obsessing over you? Don’t be so narcissistic. I just think, your cultivation method is somewhat unfair, no wonder you could become a demon hunter at such a young age," Ming Xi said pensively.

Long Kongkong replied, "Unfair? So you won’t participate in the future?"

Ming Xi immediately righteously said, "Of course I’ll participate! I’m a messenger of justice, a future warrior. To uphold justice and eradicate the evil in the world, I must become stronger."

Tao Linlin, who had awakened from the realm of cultivation just in time to hear her speech, slapped her forehead, here we go again...

Long Kongkong rolled his eyes at Ming Xi and said, "Then why are you questioning me? I’m your teammate, the man helping you maintain world peace, your companion."

Ming Xi blinked, "That does seem reasonable."

Long Kongkong chuckled, "Of course it does!"

Tao Linlin approached Ling Menglu, who was already eating breakfast, bent down slightly to greet her, saying, "Thank you."

Ling Menglu looked up at him, smiled, and said, "We’re just helping each other out. The life force brought by the Demon Suppression Tree makes my spirit furnace feel very good."

Long Kongkong looked at Tao Linlin and said, "Sister Peach... uh, Peach, why didn’t you thank me?" He had always suspected that Tao Linlin was a woman disguised as a man, but the presence of his Adam’s apple left Long Kongkong somewhat conflicted.

Tao Linlin glared at him and, without even acknowledging him, turned to eat his breakfast.

"Buzz—" Suddenly, a buzzing sound caused everyone to look up simultaneously. Ming Xi was the first to take to the air, followed closely by Long Dangdang.

Everyone reached the top of the tree canopy and looked up to the sky. Indeed, the halo that had appeared yesterday was visible again.

It was the same color as it had been when it first appeared, and this time, the halo still expanded to a great distance. Unfortunately, they still couldn’t see the starting point of the halo’s expansion. The only thing they could be sure of was that they hadn’t moved away from the area covered by the halo.

"Should we continue onward?" Ling Menglu asked Long Dangdang.

Long Dangdang thought for a moment and said, "Today, let’s not venture further in, but move sideways instead. We’ll continue to search for magical beasts. Judging from yesterday’s observations, the contraction speed of this task area isn’t too fast! Without a doubt, the closer we get to the core area, the more likely we are to encounter powerful magical beasts. Therefore, it is best not to enter the core area too early, but to approach it step by step. We need to constantly observe the starting point of the halo dividing the area and gradually move inwards."

Long Kongkong gave a sly smile and said, "Safety first."

Long Dangdang nodded and said, "Exactly, safety first. The purpose of this training is to improve our team’s cooperation and enhance our survival skills. This is just the beginning of the month, and more challenges are bound to appear. It’s better to be cautious."

"I agree." Ling Menglu nodded.

No one else objected, and they set off again, with Ming Xi scouting ahead and the rest following at a distance.

Tao Linlin was the most enthusiastic one right now. Being able to tame multiple contracted magical beasts would undoubtedly greatly boost his strength. While it would strain his mental energy, this also provides an excellent training opportunity for summoners. Each contracted magical beast is equivalent to a fixed summoning spell! He couldn’t wait to acquire more beasts. If he could get his hands on a Level 7 magical beast, he could instantly elevate his power as a 5th Rank summoner to the 6th Rank.

As they walked, everyone suddenly trembled, and the next instant, they each took out their seed spirit crystals.

The seed spirit crystals of everyone were glowing red at the moment, emanating a somewhat eerie red light. A map-like image appeared on the surface of each crystal, with clear lines pointing in one direction.

What is this?

Long Dangdang suddenly looked up, a flash of light in his eyes, "A demon hunting squad is asking for help, they must be in mortal danger. Let’s go!"

Without hesitation, everyone immediately took off in the direction indicated by the seed spirit crystals, racing towards the source of the distress signal.
