Inside the small cave Ling Tian circulated his cultivation technique while sitting cross-legged.
After restoring himself to his peak condition, Ling Tian ate some roasted meat and stepped out of the cave entrance.
Looking at the small rocky hill in front of him, Ling Tian's heart was filled with complicated emotions.
He was excited because now he could finally explore this world but he was also a bit sad because he was going to leave this place.
To others, this ordinary cave might be worthless, but to Ling Tian, it was his home.
During the coldest nights, this cave provided him with warmth and comfort.
When he was weak, this small cave gave him the feeling of protection.
Inside this small cave, Ling Tian evolved from an ant to someone who could protect himself.
That's why this small and ordinary cave held a very special place in his heart.
But he knew that he couldn't stay here forever, Ling Tian has always been a man with great ambitions, he would never be satisfied with living an ordinary life, he wanted to stand at the peak of this world, that's why he has to leave!
After taking a look at the small cave one last time, he turned around and walked away.
Ling Tian decided to find a way out of this forest while looking for opportunities to become stronger at the same time, but although saying so was easy, actually doing so was not.
Ling Tian had no idea where he was at this moment, the whole forest was surrounded by tall green mountains from all directions which prevented him from seeing any further that's why he didn't even know in which direction he should go.
Suddenly Ling Tian came to an ancient tree with a height much taller than any other tree in his surroundings, after thinking for a moment, Ling Tian jumped and his body flew in the air, easily reaching a height of at least twenty meters and he landed on a sturdy branch of the ancient tree.
Pushing the sturdy branch with his feet, he once again leaped into the air, causing the ancient tree to tremble slightly, this time he was able to reach all the way to the top, Ling Tian suddenly extended his right hand and hugged the trunk of the ancient tree.
As he stood at the peak, Ling Tian finally had the opportunity to take a proper look at his surroundings as he tried to decide his next course of action.
When he looked around him, what entered his vision was a vast forest filled with tall green trees, surrounded by gigantic mountains of varying heights.
Some mountains were no more than a few hundred meters high while some were so tall that their peaks penetrated through the snow-white clouds in the sky.
'Whoever left me here most likely didn't come from the north, otherwise, there was no way he would leave the scarlet sun fruits behind!' Ling Tian thought in his heart, as he scanned the vast forest, suddenly when he looked towards the south he could vaguely see the outline of a river.
The river water reflecting the sunlight sparkled with a silver color. Emerging from the mountains in the west, the silvery river traveled winding through the forest like a giant snake, finally disappearing in the mountains of the east.
As Ling Tian observed the river, suddenly he remembered an old saying, that is, if you're lost in a forest with a river, then it is always best to follow that river because it is highly likely that you would come across some human settlement!
"That's it!" After deciding his next destination, Ling Tian loosened his grip on the trunk, causing his body to slide down and he landed on the ground.
He estimated that it would take at least 3 days to reach that river, thinking of this he decided to not delay any longer, with his eyes filled with determination Ling Tian started running towards the river and his silhouette gradually disappeared in the Woods.
....
Not Long After Ling Tian left, a few giant figures appeared near the ancient tree.
Their body was covered in a soft silver fur and they had a spear-like horn in the center of their forehead, they looked very similar to the silver wolves Ling Tian killed not long ago but only much bigger.
Especially the Silver wolf in the middle, his three meters tall body that was much larger than anyone else', stood out like a towering mountain in his pack, his silvery fur was also much brighter, with a hint of white, giving him a very noble aura and his blue eyes flickered with a hint of wisdom.
Just his presence alone caused the other wolves to feel suppressed.
As he walked towards the ancient tree in an incomparably proud manner, the other wolves instinctively bowed their heads and stepped aside to clear the way for him, these actions made it clear that he was the leader of this pack!
Ignoring his subordinates, the wolf leader quietly approached the ancient tree and sniffed its trunk.
Suddenly the wolf leader seemed to have noticed a familiar scent causing his expression to turn vicious and the wisdom in his eyes disappeared without a trace, replaced by a bloodthirsty murderous intent!
"Grrrr!!" The wolf leader let out a furious growl, causing his subordinates to tremble in fright, by the time they recovered their senses, the wolf leader was already dashing in a certain direction in the dense forest.
"Howl!!" Upon witnessing their leader's actions the smaller wolves let out a howl that echoed throughout the whole forest and without showing any signs of hesitation, they also started chasing after the wolf leader.
...
Above soaring mountains, the ocean of clouds surged silently.
On the ground, a small human silhouette was moving swiftly across the dense forest.
His clothes fluttered in the air as he jumped from one branch to another, his movements were as smooth as flowing water and as fast as Lightning.
Although Ling Tian looked calm on the surface, but his senses were always on high alert, his focus raised to the extreme and he was constantly paying close attention to his surroundings as he moved towards his destination.
At this moment he was like a half-seethed sword that would react to the slightest disturbance in his surroundings, ready to attack as soon an enemy shows up.
On his journey, Ling Tian intentionally didn't use the system to look for fierce beasts, he wanted to use this opportunity to accumulate more battle experience and hone his martial skills, of course, fierce beasts above the 3rd layer of the origin gathering realm and spiritual herbs were exceptions, Ling Tian was well aware of his own limits, he wasn't the kind of idiot who would risk his life just to become a bit stronger.
Suddenly Ling Tian's figure came to a stop and he looked down in front of him.
What entered his vision were a few grass blades that were about half a meter tall, the deep purple-colored grass blades were constantly swaying in the air even though the wind was still which made them look very creepy.
Its smell was also somewhat nasty, even though Ling Tian was a few meters away from the purple grass, he could still smell its foul odor.
"Name:- Demon Repelling Grass"
"Description:- When burnt, it produces a purple smoke that is unbearably irritating to fierce beasts but it has no effect on humans."
The description made Ling Tian's eyes lit up, this was exactly what he was looking for, once again scanned his surroundings to see if there was any fierce beast nearby.
After making sure that it was safe, Ling Tian jumped down and stepped forward to take the demon repelling grass, but suddenly something unexpected happened!
