60 "Inside Dragon Valley"

After collecting the monster core, Ling Tian lowered his head to look at the body that was now a dark shade of green. However, his body wasn't injured at all. Since he had been refining his body with Golden Immortal Body Skill, his physique was really strong. So even though the poison caused his body to feel some pain, it couldn't get past his skin and enter his body. The majority of the damage was being counteracted with his beginner's poison body. So while his entire body was tainted with a green poison, the only symptom he felt was a slight burning sensation.

Ling Tian looked around himself and listened attentively, "There probably isn't a water source here, so I won't be able to wash this off. I guess I'll have to handle this roughly." Plucking a few tree leaves, he began to wipe off the excess venom while pulling out a new change of clothing from within his Inventory. Although this place was extremely large and there wasn't be anyone around, Ling Tian had no hobby of walking around naked.

After changing his clothes, Ling Tian walked away from where the carcass of the Red Snake lay without a care at all for it. Although magical beasts had many important parts that could be harvested and sold off for a high price, this Red Snake was just a Class pseudo 5 Magical Beast. If he were to sell this, he would be getting much since it wasn't a precious type of material if he was class 5 magical beast then he could make big time money. plus, Ling Tian had plenty of gold Coins to spare, so he today did not care for such a little sum of money.

While the beasts that were born and grew in the Dragon Valley of Magical Beasts were much more powerful than those in Raikou Forest, they were much rarer than the ones in Raikou Forest. After all, while the dragon valley of Magical Beasts may not be the largest in the Tian Yuan Continent, it was still vast in its own right. The magical beasts in the dragon valley were all scattered about, so meeting a magical beast was not impossible, but rather quite rare.

Ling Tian slowly walked deeper into the dragon valley. he had only seen two magical beasts, excluding the previous Class pseudo 5 Poisonous Red Snake, these two were both Class 3 Magical Beasts.

The moon was hanging high up in the sky and basked the earth with its lunar glow. However it did not reach into the forest where darkness reigned supreme, so one couldn't even see their fingers if they stretched out their hand in front of their faces. With the abundant amount of leaves covering the forest, the weak lunar lights wouldn't be able to penetrate through onto the ground below.

Meanwhile, on a flat piece of ground, a large bonfire burst into life and lit up the night with its dancing flames.

Ling Tian knelt by the bonfire with a stick in his hand as he slowly cooked a piece of meat that was speared through. Slowly, the meat began to caramelize as the fat began to slowly drip off onto the fire below, sputtering it out.

After eating his fill, Ling Tian pulled out a unique smelling herb from his Space Ring and sprinkled it on the surroundings. This herb was one of the few things that every mercenary entering the forest would need to prepare. Before resting, if one were to sprinkle this herb in his surroundings, it would be able to repel the majority of poisonous creatures from disturbing him. Of course, this medicine was only useful towards normal animals and had no effect on magical beasts.

After using the herb, Ling Tian immediately leaped onto a nearby tree. Sitting cross-legged on a slightly flatter branch, Ling Tian took out another faintly sweet smelling herb from within his Space Ring and started to sprinkle it on his body. This white colored herb was very effective in suppressing one's Qi, preventing his qi from escaping which might attract any kind of wild beasts while he was sleeping at night. After all, both the wild animals and the magical beasts in this dragon valley had extremely acute senses of smell. Although this powder wouldn't be able to completely hide Ling Tian's Qi, it could at least conceal it from the senses of normal animals.

The dragon valley had many magical beasts as well as wild animals. The reason why wild animals were called because they had no monster core within their bodies. Wild animals were also not as strong as a Class 2 Magical Beast, similar to humans that hadn't yet manifested their bloodlines.

Although the wild animals weren't strong and anyone who dared to enter the dragon valley of Magical Beasts could easily kill them, when it came to cultivating or sleeping at night, no one would want to be bothered by a wild animal. Therefore, practically every mercenary who entered the dragon valley or slept outdoors overnight would be prepared, and bring a good amount of this type of herb.

Ling Tian Heard a Metallic Voice in his head

"Eh?"

(I can unlock profession this way too?)

After eating some food to fill his stomach, Ling Tian once again continued on his journey.

-----------------------------------------------

Time quickly passed by. In the blink of an eye, night had already passed. at the foot of the dragon valley, a youth wearing an Azure set of clothing was currently facing a pitch-black, panther-type magical beast that was a meter tall and three meters long.

The youth held a long, thin, silver sword. He stood tall and straight, seem to be as immovable as a mountain. His face was brightly colored by mud and dust, making it impossible to make out any of his facial features.

The cat-type magical beast was glaring at the youth opposite of it with a ferocious glint in its eyes. It roared deeply and began to fall into a crouching position. Its hind legs firmly planted into the ground, preparing to attack at any moment.
