Chapter 78: Searching for the Blood Fur

It wasn’t an exaggeration. Even if there weren’t any in the mystic realm, there would definitely be some in the Sunset Mountains.

Jiang Yifan nodded, his eyes bright.

At this moment, everyone had already entered the mystic realm. The two of them quickly entered the halo.

They held their hands tightly to prevent themselves from being separated from each other during the teleportation process.

With a flash of light, the two of them disappeared.

When she opened her eyes again, she was already in the depths of the Sunset Mountains. There were trees that were more than 20 meters tall everywhere, much taller than the trees that surrounded the mountains.

She turned around and realized that Jiang Yifan had disappeared.

Xia Muqing frowned. This was bad.

That boy, Jiang Yifan, had no combat skills.

Just as she was about to think of a way to find him, a weak voice sounded. “Sister, I’m here.”

Xia Muqing looked around. She even looked into the bushes but she still couldn’t find any traces of him.

The voice sounded again. “Sister, I’m on top.”

Xia Muqing looked up and saw him hanging on a tree branch. She couldn’t help but laugh.

Jiang Yifan didn’t look too happy. He helplessly said, “Sister, can you put me down first?”

Xia Muqing suppressed her laughter and leaped up to save her.

“How did you get up there?”

Jiang Yifan was also very depressed. “When I opened my eyes, I was already hanging on a tree.”

Without mentioning that again, the two of them quickly surveyed their surroundings.

With Jiang Yifan, a walking encyclopedia with her, it really saved her a lot of effort. Basically, the next second after she spotted something, he would be able to give it a name, effect, and purpose.

Xia Muqing was getting more surprised. So what he said was true.

The two of them quickly found a cave nearby and prepared to settle down here today.

Xia Muqing carried Gungun out from her bag carefully. Fortunately, its body was relatively light. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to carry it.

Jiang Yifan came over and asked curiously, “Is that the nightmare beast?”

Xia Muqing asked, “Don’t you know everything? Have you never seen a nightmare beast before?”

Jiang Yifan quipped, “Nightmare beasts have always been very mysterious. Every one of them takes on a different form, so very few people know what they look like. In addition, their numbers are far too few, and it’s been nearly a hundred years since they last appeared.”

Xia Muqing nodded and said, “I don’t know what it is either. I guess it doesn’t know either.”

Jiang Yifan nodded in understanding. “That’s right. Nightmare beasts have always lived alone. Even if they have children, they will leave them behind. A cub doesn’t know its identity before it matures. When it matures, it will accept its family inheritance.”

Xia Muqing fed Gungun the Soul Returning Pearl.

Gungun’s throat moved, but its small body remained the same.

Xia Muqing frowned. Jiang Yifan observed it and said, “This nightmare beast is in the midst of receiving its inheritance now, but it hasn’t reached adulthood.”

Jiang Yifan thought that it was strange, but Xia Muqing knew the reason. It must have something to do with the attack it had blocked for her previously. However, she didn’t want to elaborate, and her heart swelled with even more pity for it.

Jiang Yifan was puzzled for a moment, but then he stopped thinking about it. He carefully thought about which route he should take tomorrow to find the blood fur.

The next day when they woke up, Xia Muqing glanced at Gungun as usual before putting it back onto her bag.

Jiang Yifan took out a compass and continuously tested it.

He pointed the compass in the southwest direction, and his eyes lit up. “Sister, let’s go this way.”

Xia Muqing had no objections and followed him.

Their goal was clear: the blood fur.

Jiang Yifan explained, “The blood fur is rare because its living environment’s conditions are very harsh. It needs to grow in hot magma, but its surroundings have to be covered in ice before it matures.”

These two extreme environments had caused the blood fur to be labeled as a legendary item.
