 Chapter 3140: Battle Beasts, Lightning Purple-Striped Tigers?

The arrival of the formal rewards gave Su Fengze another pleasant surprise.

From his expression, it was clear that Su Fengze was very happy, even excited.

Since joining the Divine Rune Army, Su Fengze had never received two rewards in one task. How could he not be excited?

Fortunately, Lin Moyu had told him earlier that there would be another reward after the task ended. The previous one was just an extra reward, giving Su Fengze mental preparation.

Within the rosy light, the 'hundred' on Su Fengze's seal changed to 'thousand'.

He was promoted again, from hundred-man commander to thousand-man commander.

Advancing two military ranks in one task was something Su Fengze had never dared to imagine, all thanks to Lin Moyu's influence.

The 'eight' on Lin Moyu's seal finally changed to 'seven'.

During the task, Lin Moyu had contributed the most and paid the most, so naturally he gained the most.

He also completed a promotion, changing from eighth-grade general at the start of the task to seventh-grade general.

Lin Moyu muttered to himself, "I might be the seventh-grade general with the lowest realm in the Divine Rune Army."

Su Fengze laughed, "Realm doesn't matter, true strength is king. With Friend Lin's strength, forget seventh-grade general, even second-grade general would be fitting."

Lin Moyu joked, "I'll accept that flattery."

Su Fengze said, "Fengze benefited from Friend Lin's light this time. I can't repay this favor for now, it will have to wait for the future."

Lin Moyu said, "No need to be so particular about it."

Su Fengze chuckled, "I understand."

A moment later, the rosy light disappeared, and the two retrieved their seals.

Su Fengze checked the tasks in his seal, then compared them with Lin Moyu's seal tasks, finding that their tasks were completely different.

Su Fengze cupped his hands to Lin Moyu, "Fengze won't hold Friend Lin back."

The two had different tasks to do, so naturally they couldn't act together.

Lin Moyu also cupped his hands, "Take care, Friend Su. We'll meet again if fate allows!"

"We'll meet again if fate allows!"

Su Fengze left, disappearing into the horizon.

Lin Moyu didn't leave. He felt the high-level area.

The land of the high-level area emitted a strong aura of the Great Dao.

Lin Moyu could feel that the being who reenacted the ancient battlefield and set the rules had expended far more effort in the high-level area than in other areas.

There were many battle beasts active in the high-level area. The battle beasts wouldn't stay in one place.

They would roam about in groups, like soldiers patrolling, attacking outsiders in the high-level area.

But the materials didn't say whether battle beasts would attack the Bloody Legion and Divine Rune Army.

Except for inside secret realms, it was rare to see Divine Rune Army and Bloody Legion in the outside world, so no one paid attention to this situation.

With experience from the low-level and mid-level areas, Lin Moyu had a general understanding of the ancient battlefield's situation.

In his mind, secret realms could be roughly divided into three categories.

The first category, which was also the most numerous, could be seen as various battlefields. Many secret realms reenacted battles that had occurred in the past.

The evolution of these secret realms should all be done by that rule-setter's methods.

The second category of secret realms, fewer in number, corresponded to various tasks.

The third category of secret realms, more numerous than the second but less than the first, were evolved by the Divine Rune Army soldiers who had died in the past.

Among the three categories, the first was the safest.

Ordinary cultivators rarely encountered the second category of secret realms, while the first category was where many cultivators were injured or killed.

But in terms of real danger, it still wasn't as bad as battle beasts.

Being targeted by battle beasts was real trouble.

Those Dao Venerables who entered the high-level area would choose nearby secret realms to enter in order to avoid battle beasts.

As for which type of secret realm they entered, that was up to luck.

No matter which secret realm they entered, it was better than being outside with battle beasts.

Lin Moyu looked at the map in his seal. After advancing two ranks, the map had expanded a lot, and the tasks had become eight.

Eight tasks were distributed across the map. Even the nearest one was quite a distance away.

Lin Moyu didn't consider much, directly choosing the nearest task.

At the same time, countless skeleton generals appeared beside him, then scattered to explore the high-level area.

Lin Moyu sent out a full ten million skeleton generals to explore the high-level area. In Lin Moyu's understanding, the high-level area was not only more dangerous, but also larger in range.

Ten million skeleton generals was just a base, not necessarily enough.

Moreover, using skeleton generals to explore here was far more meaningful than before.

Skeleton generals could not only clearly explore the terrain, but also search for battle beasts.

The location, number, and strength of battle beasts could all be explored clearly.

If battle beasts really could produce Great Dao crystals, their significance to Lin Moyu would be completely different.

He might even choose not to do tasks, turning instead to deal with battle beasts.

For Great Dao crystals, giving up tasks wasn't out of the question.

After all, completing tasks, apart from continuously raising military rank, didn't seem to have many other rewards.

As for whether there would be good rewards later, that was all unknown.

Comparatively, it was naturally best to grasp the immediate practical benefits. What could be obtained in hand was best.

If both could be taken care of, that would be even better.

The skeleton generals spread out more and more, gradually disappearing into the lush ancient forest.

Lin Moyu slowly flew up, heading towards the task point.

He didn't fly fast, moving unhurriedly, with the terrain map continuously being drawn in his mind.

Soon, the skeleton generals encountered battle beasts.

This group of battle beasts numbered only eighteen, belonging to a small group.

Eighteen battle beasts moved slowly between the dense forests in the high-level area.

Their shape and outline looked like tigers, but larger than tigers.

Because of the skeleton generals' vision, details couldn't be seen.

Through the soul fire, it could be seen that all eighteen battle beasts were seventh-level Dao Venerable.

In the high-level area, such a battle beast group was considered quite weak.

But even so, seventh-level Dao Venerables would have to avoid them.

Even eighth-level Dao Venerables would have to think twice.

Battle beasts' combat power was very strong, and there were eighteen of them. Although eighth-level Dao Venerables were higher in realm, they might also pay a price if not careful.

Even if they could win, it would be a hard fight.

Normally, except for some powerful eighth-level Dao Venerable powerhouses or ninth-level Dao Venerable powerhouses, no one would provoke them.

In the materials Lin Moyu had obtained, it was stated that upon seeing a battle beast group in the high-level area, one should immediately avoid them.

This was also the practice of most beast race Dao Venerables. Unless absolutely necessary, they wouldn't make enemies with battle beasts.

But Lin Moyu didn't think so. This group of battle beasts was right on his path to the task point. Lin Moyu immediately approached silently.

Suddenly, one of the battle beasts charged forward, lightning bursting from its body, smashing several ancient trees.

The skeleton general hiding behind the ancient trees was pulverized to death.

Lin Moyu was slightly surprised, "It was actually discovered."

The skeleton general had already suppressed its aura and was also hidden by ancient trees, yet it was still discovered.

This showed that these battle beasts had very keen perception.

Lin Moyu didn't let the skeleton general revive, and at the same time had nearby skeleton generals explore outwards in all directions, using the battle beast group's location as the center.

He wanted to see if there were other battle beast groups nearby. If battle beast groups were too close, once battle broke out, they might support each other.

This was also what made battle beasts troublesome.

Finally, Lin Moyu saw those battle beasts with his own eyes and couldn't help but exclaim softly, "Lightning Purple-Striped Tigers?"
