Chapter 2329: Chapter 2329: Core Area

About ten minutes later.

A deep blue light flashed.

Liu Ye’s figure emerged.

At this moment, there were only slight bloodstains on the corners of her clothes.

Other than that, nothing seemed amiss.

Seeing this scene, Shi Xuan showed a look of admiration.

"Daoist Liu, it seems that among the three of us, you are the fastest. In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, you dispatched this Dark Night Wolf."

Faced with Shi Xuan’s compliment, Liu Ye smiled slightly.

"Daoist Liu, you’re too kind."

"It was thanks to watching you kill that Dark Night Wolf last time that I discovered its weakness."

"Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been this quick."

"Alright, let’s move on."

"By the way, next time we encounter a Demon Beast, it’ll be Daoist Zhou’s turn to act."

Beside them, Zhou Yu smiled faintly.

"No problem."

Then, three more days passed.

Zhou Yu and the other two were suddenly halted in their tracks.

Ahead of them appeared a dark attribute Demon Beast resembling a bull with a single horn.

Without Shi Xuan and Liu Ye needing to say anything, Zhou Yu’s figure instantly transformed into a Thunder Light and flashed forward.

In the next moment, countless Thunder Lights manifested.

They instantly enveloped the Single-horned Bull Demon Beast.

Subsequently, Zhou Yu flicked his cloak, and a deep blue radiance completely enveloped the surroundings.

Seeing this scene, Shi Xuan and Liu Ye both showed expressions of surprise.

"If I’m not mistaken, Daoist Zhou just used some kind of Thunder Array."

"That’s quite rare."

Liu Ye smiled slightly.

"Indeed, it’s a Thunder Array."

"This kind of Divine Skill is very rare in the Northern Domain of the Heavenly Origin World, but among the Human and Demon Clans, there are several such inheritances."

"However, these inheritances mostly come from those top-tier figures."

"It seems Daoist Zhou’s background is quite extraordinary."

Upon hearing this, Shi Xuan instinctively showed a look of contempt in his eyes.

In the view of cultivators from their Northern Domain, the Human and Demon Clans from the far south of the Southern Domain are indeed not worth mentioning.

In the entire Heavenly Origin World, they are just inconsequential small races.

Shi Xuan was just about to speak.

When suddenly a light flashed in the distance, and the next moment, Zhou Yu’s figure appeared.

The Single-horned Bull next to him had already disappeared.

Zhou Yu didn’t even have any bloodstains on him.

Seeing this scene, Shi Xuan and Liu Ye both showed expressions of shock.

Zhou Yu seemed to have killed this Single-horned Bull in just one-tenth of Liu Ye’s time.

This... is way too fast!

For a moment, the two were too stunned to speak.

Zhou Yu’s figure flashed, coming up to the two, and said,

"Lucky timing, I encountered an injured Demon Beast."

Hearing this, Shi Xuan and Liu Ye showed expressions of realization.

No wonder it was resolved so quickly.

This luck is indeed good.

"Daoist Liu, as we continue forward, we’ll reach the core region of the Dark Night Rainforest."

Zhou Yu suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Liu Ye was taken aback.

She then took out the Compass Magical Artifact, activated the spell, and began to check.

A moment later, Liu Ye put away the artifact, looking at Zhou Yu with a face full of shock.

"Daoist Zhou, you’re right, we’ve already entered the core region."

"Daoist Zhou, how did you know?"

In response to Liu Ye’s inquiry, Zhou Yu smiled faintly.

"I just felt that the Dark Primordial Power here seemed to suddenly become much richer. So, I just asked casually."

In fact, Zhou Yu didn’t just simply sense that the Dark Primordial Power had become richer.

It was that the Single-horned Bull he just killed, its strength had already reached the level of Upper Rank Elite Demon Beast.

Previously, what they encountered were either ordinary Demon Beasts or below Middle Rank.

Considering these factors, Zhou Yu made the judgment.

Of course, he didn’t reveal everything to these two because he was well aware that they, being of high birth, looked down on him, an Alien Race individual and especially one from the weak Human Race.

Zhou Yu naturally found no need to disclose everything to them.

Hearing Zhou Yu’s explanation, Shi Xuan didn’t react much.

But a flash of doubt appeared in Liu Ye’s eyes.

However, she didn’t say much further but continued,

"From now on, we need to be extremely careful."

"The Middle Rank Elite Demon Beasts and Lord Level Demon Beasts are in this area."

"Moreover, here, if we can avoid engaging, let’s not engage."

"Because those Lord Level Demon Beasts have incredibly keen perception. Once they detect us, we might find it impossible to escape."

Upon hearing this, Shi Xuan frowned deeply.

"If that’s the case, this will be really difficult."

"The number of Demon Beasts here has significantly increased."

Zhou Yu said calmly,

"If it becomes unavoidable to engage, the three of us can jointly use the Magic Array Divine Power given to us by Elder Cai."

"With this Magic Array Divine Power, we should have no trouble instantly killing any Demon Beast below the Lord Level."

Hearing this, Shi Xuan’s spirit immediately lifted.

"Right, I almost forgot about that Divine Skill."

"That makes things much better."

Liu Ye also nodded in agreement.

"Daoist Zhou is indeed meticulous in thought."

"By the way, Daoist Zhou, if you have any other suggestions, feel free to share them."

Zhou Yu smiled slightly.

"Nothing else in particular."

"However, we can spread out a bit during our journey ahead."

"If any danger arises, the other two can provide support."

"This way, it’s a bit safer."

Upon hearing this, a strange glint appeared in Shi Xuan’s eyes.

"I agree."

Seeing this, Liu Ye also nodded.

"Then let’s do as Daoist Zhou suggests."

Seeing these two agree so easily, Zhou Yu wasn’t surprised at all.

He knew very well that their agreement wasn’t because his suggestion was necessarily good.

But because, once separated, they would have much more autonomy.

For instance, should they encounter treasure, they could secretly take it.

Or if someone else encounters danger, they could decide whether or not to help.

Most importantly, being apart would allow certain means to be deployed.

This was the reason Shi Xuan agreed so readily.

The same went for Liu Ye.

Liu Ye laughed.

"Daoist Shi, your physical body is the strongest. How about you go ahead first?"

Shi Xuan laughed,

"No problem."

As soon as the words fell, Shi Xuan activated his movement technique and was the first to dash into the core region.

Afterward, Zhou Yu and Liu Ye followed behind, flanking both sides, forming an arrowhead formation, advancing continuously.

Over the next ten days or so,

Zhou Yu and the other two encountered quite a number of Demon Beasts, and the strength of these Demon Beasts kept getting stronger, but they all smoothly avoided them.

No incidents occurred.

However, about a whole day after, Zhou Yu and the other two didn’t encounter a single Demon Beast.

Zhou Yu’s expression gradually became grim, his eyes flickering with a gray light, probing around...
