Chapter 714 - 714 Wind Barrier at Night
714 Wind Barrier at Night
The sky was already dark, and they needed to return to the territory barrier as soon as possible.
According to his experience, there were no fierce beasts on the outskirts of the forest. There was no danger at night.
Although there were fierce beasts in the Whirlwind Turtle’s habitat, there were not many of them at night. It might be dangerous to the ordinary members of Team Origin, but to top experts like Liu Yan, it was not the case.
But even so, they still had to be careful. Liu Yan felt they should return to the territory barrier as soon as possible.
The territory barrier was the safest.
Then, Liu Yan led Allen Smith, Hans Wilson, and the others to backtrack their path into the forest.
Along the way, they also encountered some Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, but not many of them. Hence, Liu Yan and the others could easily take them down.
Allen Smith, Hans Wilson, and the other four were even fighting to make a move. It was because these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers were too easy to deal with when they held their breath. It was simply killing one fierce beast with one strike. However, these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers provided a lot of combat experience, so they also fought to make a move.
Liu Yan did not snatch it. He naturally did not care about this little bit of experience points.
Liu Yan’s storage ring was still filled with the corpses of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.
When Liu Yan extracted the corpses of these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers, he would obtain the same amount of combat experience as when he killed them. Besides, he would also get additional attribute points, which would increase his strength. Naturally, the benefits were much higher than killing these Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.
Liu Yan estimated that there might be thousands of Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers in his spatial ring.
Liu Yan was currently level 55 and could use Divine Extraction 550 times a day.
If Liu Yan wanted to use up all the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers in his storage ring to increase his strength, he would need to use up at least two days of Divine Extraction.
However, Liu Yan felt it would be better to spend more days. After all, this was an increase in strength!
Very quickly, Liu Yan and his group left the forest and returned to the habitat of the Whirlwind Turtles.
Allen Smith, Hans Wilson, and a few others immediately sighed.
Xu Han felt relieved. “We’re finally back to the familiar place.”
Allen Smith said, “I still feel that the habitat of the Whirlwind Turtle is better. That forest is too strange.”
Hans Wilson agreed. “Yes, the trees in that forest are so tall that we can’t even see the sun. It’s depressing. Although we can’t see the sun now, I feel much more comfortable seeing the vast sky and the bright moonlight.”
Ye Yifan replied, “I did feel a sense of pressure in the forest just now.”
Luo Wei said, “There seems to be the aura of fierce beasts in the surroundings. The habitat of the Whirlwind Turtles at night is not safe. We should return to our territory as soon as possible.”
Liu Yan nodded in agreement. “Luo Wei is right. Let’s hurry back to the territory barrier to ensure our safety. As for relaxation and whatnot, once we’ve confirmed our safety, we’ll have plenty of time to relax.”
Then, Liu Yan set off with Allen Smith, Hans Wilson, and the others.
After leaving the forest, the Whirlwind Turtle’s habitat was vast. After all, it was all flat land.
Liu Yan and his group increased their speed and moved forward quickly.
It was much easier to increase their speed on the plains.
In addition, if they were faster, they could avoid danger. Staying less in the Wind Barrier at night would reduce the danger.
Liu Yan’s group of six were all top-notch experts. After they unleashed their full speed on the open plains, their speed instantly increased.
During this period, they seemed to have passed by some fierce beasts. Some fierce beasts had ordinary strength, while others were powerful. Even Liu Yan felt a sense of threat from them.
However, Liu Yan and the others didn’t take the initiative to provoke them. They didn’t even look at them and directly rushed over.
Not long after, Liu Yan and the others arrived at the barrier of Origin Territory and stepped in.
After Liu Yan and the others entered the territory barrier, they finally heaved a sigh of relief. They were safe.
No matter how dangerous it was outside, it was safe inside the territory barrier.
“We’re finally safe! We’re finally back at Origin Territory,” said Xu Han.
“It’s nice to come back to Origin Territory,” said Allen Smith.
Hans Wilson laughed. “Haha, it’s the security sense that the territory’s barrier gives us. With the territory barrier, no matter how dangerous it is outside, it’s safe inside.”
Ye Yifan said, “With this territory barrier, it is safe. Unfortunately, the territory barrier will disappear after a month. Today is already the seventh day.”
Luo Wei said, “In the remaining 23 days, we have to make the best use of the time to increase our strength. We hope we will have enough strength after the territory’s barrier disappears. We have to at least be able to protect ourselves.”
Hearing this, Liu Yan nodded his head slightly, thinking that it made sense.
Although the territory barrier was safe, it was only temporary. It was more important to increase their strength.
Time passed quickly. After Liu Yan and the others entered the sixth level, they cleared out the Whirlwind Turtles outside and inside the territory barrier. It was to ensure the team members could leave the territory barrier to collect materials, increase their strength, and develop the territory.
After that, they went to explore the forest.
They realized that he had only done these two things, but time passed quickly. It had already been seven days.
They only had 23 days left.
Just as Liu Yan and the others were sighing, one of the team members, who were in charge of guarding the area, discovered Liu Yan and the others.
“Who’s being sneaky over there!”
“Captain?”
“Captain? It’s you guys. You’re finally back!”
A man approached from afar. At first, he was still in a vigilant attacking posture. When he recognized Liu Yan and the others, he immediately walked over with an excited expression.
Liu Yan recognized this member. It was Shi Hao from the First Squad, and he was also a student from the Gifted Academy.
When Liu Yan sensed Shi Hao’s strength, he immediately felt a bit surprised.
Shi Hao’s strength had already reached 7-star.
7-star combat strength was insignificant to Liu Yan, who had 14-star combat strength.
It was also insignificant to people like Allen Smith and Hans Wilson, who had 9-star and 10-star combat strength.
However, they were experts to those ordinary team members.
When they first entered the sixth level of the Tower, the ordinary members had combat strength between 4-star and 5-star.
As they continued to develop and improve their strength on the sixth level of the Tower, the strength of the ordinary members of Team Origin naturally improved a lot.
The number of team members with 4-star combat strength gradually decreased, and most were now at 5-star combat strength.
There were even some ordinary members who had reached 6-star.
However, with 7-star combat strength, Shi Hao was still considered an expert among ordinary members.
Liu Yan had some impression of Shi Hao.
Back then, on the central rest platform of the third-and-a-half level of Tower, Liu Yan met Shi Hao on the first day of his trip to Gifted Academy as an exchange student.
Liu Yan still remembered Shi Hao was being bullied by Zheng Tainan, Liu Qing, and Liu Ning.
Zheng Tainan and the other two were all quite powerful, so they could naturally bully Shi Hao, who had ordinary strength.
At that time, Liu Yan still had a deep impression of Shi Hao because Shi Hao chose to endure the others’ bullies.
Liu Yan could tell that Shi Hao wasn’t terrified or scared at that time. Instead, he chose to endure and keep this hatred in his heart so that he could take revenge later.
Initially, Liu Yan would not have had any impression of such an ordinary member. After all, his strength was very mediocre.
However, Shi Hao’s success in the trial on the fourth level of the Tower made Liu Yan surprised, but Liu Yan didn’t pay much attention to it.
Liu Yan had always remembered that Shi Hao was an ordinary member of the First Squad.
When Liu Yan met him a few days ago, his combat level was only 4-star. Among the ordinary members, Shi Hao was considered below average.
However, after not seeing him for a few days, he had suddenly broken through from 4-star to 7-star.
Liu Yan felt that something must have happened to Shi Hao’s body. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be like this.
An ordinary member with 4-star combat strength would only be able to reach 5-star when they received resources and rewards on the sixth level of the Tower.
Even if this team member was talented, it was impressive if he could reach six stars in such a short time.
However, Shi Hao’s combat strength suddenly broke from 3-star to 7-star. It was unusual.
