The 19th chapter - Wind of Detection

The Demonic Beast Mountain Range was boundless.

Entering it, one would not know if it was hundreds of years old or thousands of years old. Ancient trees covered the sky and the earth, and all kinds of weeds were everywhere. Thorns were also growing everywhere. The withered leaves fell all over the ground, and the sound of footsteps would naturally sound when one stepped on the ground. The surrounding old vines and weeds were densely packed together.

"This kind of ancient forest that has existed for countless years, the weeds and vines are also dense. I reckon that even if there is a magical beast hiding ten meters away, its eyes would not be able to see it." Lin Feng's heart was filled with fear.

De Linkewote was also beside him.

"Don't talk about ten meters away, Lin Feng, in this patch of weeds in front of you, there might be a big python hiding in it." De Linkewote said with a smile.

Lin Feng couldn't help but look at the weeds in front of him. The weeds were extremely dense and almost half the height of a person. There might be a python hiding in such dense weeds. Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng stood where he was and silently chanted a spell.

Suddenly, a light wind spread out in all directions with Lin Feng as the center, and finally disappeared between heaven and earth.

Wind-style magic - Wind of Detection!

Generally speaking, when one reached the level of a Level Three Magician, they would be able to use the Wind of Detection. However, the stronger one was, the wider the range of the Wind of Detection. The Level Three Wind of Detection was only ten meters in radius, while the Level Five Wind of Detection was over a hundred meters in radius.

"Within this two hundred meters, there are only Level-1 magical beasts, Bubble Rabbits, and a few Level-2 magical beasts, 'Scorpions'." Lin Feng said confidently.

The Wind of Insight could sense the shape and aura of living creatures.

"Don't be too confident. Powerful magical beasts can enter the ground, and some Saint-level magical beasts can even disguise themselves." De Linkewote reminded him, then smiled and said, "Of course, you are just a small character. Those powerful magical beasts don't need to disguise themselves or sneak in when facing you."

When Lin Feng heard this, he became even more careful.

From Lin Feng's experience in the original book, Lin Feng knew very well how dangerous the Magical Beast Mountain Range was. Although his current strength was a little stronger than the Lin Feng in the book, he still had a Level-2 Magician, Di Liya, with him. The strength of a Level-2 Magician in the Magical Beast Mountain Range was negligible.

Lin Feng quietly walked into the Magical Beast Mountain Range, carefully observing his surroundings. The little Shadowmouse on Lin Feng's shoulder also paid attention to his surroundings. The two little eyes of the little Shadowmouse also looked around carefully. As for Di Liya, who could not even use the Wind of Insight, she could only lean against Lin Feng's side. The two people and one magical beast gradually entered the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

"The Magical Beast Mountain Range stretches for thousands of miles, and the width is usually around seven to eight hundred miles. In the outermost hundred miles, there are mostly low-level magical beasts. If you go deeper than a hundred miles, there will be many Level-5 and Level-6 magical beasts. If you go deeper, there will be many Level-7, Level-8, and Level-9 magical beasts. There might even be Saint-level magical beasts."

De Linkewote once again explained some information about the Magical Beast Mountain Range to Lin Feng. Although Lin Feng knew most of the information, it was not as clear as what De Linkewote had explained.

"Of course, this is not absolute. Maybe a certain level 9 Magical Beast would be bored and would wander around the outer perimeter." De Linkewote said with a mocking tone, "Maybe you would encounter a pack of over ten thousand large Magical Beasts. If that happens, you can only blame your bad luck."

Hearing De Linkewote's words, Lin Feng couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

Nonsense!

Because of the existence of Di Liya, Lin Feng was not in a hurry to enter the inner part of the Magical Beast Mountain Range. This place was the outermost part of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, and there were only a few level 1 and 2 Magical Beasts. It was just right for Di Liya to train her combat strength.

"Di Liya, I will leave the dinner tonight to you. There are three Bubble Rabbits fifty meters ahead. Go and kill them."

"Oh!" Di Liya nodded obediently. At the same time, she followed the direction Lin Feng had pointed out and approached the Bubble Rabbits. Lin Feng and Bebe also quietly followed behind Di Liya.

When Di Liya saw the three Bubble Rabbits quietly eating grass, she suddenly turned her head and said to Lin Feng, "Lin Feng, they are so cute. Can you not kill them?"

Lin Feng rolled his eyes and almost fainted. In such a dangerous Magical Beast Mountain Range, he actually had sympathy for the Magical Beasts. It was not so easy to find a death.

"Remember, in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, other than me and Bebe, all the other creatures are enemies, including all the demonic beasts and the humans who come here to hunt demonic beasts." Lin Feng said with a serious expression.

Lin Feng knew that if he was careless in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, he would be in danger of his life. He did not want to die in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range because of Di Liya's sympathy in the future. Therefore, it was better to kill Di Liya's sympathy as soon as possible.

"Humans? Could it be that even humans cannot be trusted in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range?" Di Liya widened her eyes.

Hearing that, Lin Feng could not help but sneer and said, "The most dangerous thing in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range is not the demonic beasts, but the humans of our race. Although the demonic beasts are fierce, they are not greedy. They only attack us to fill their stomachs. Moreover, they don't use schemes, and they basically attack us directly. In comparison, the cunning humans need to be more careful."

Di Liya nodded her head as if she understood something. With a wave of her hand, a small wind blade flew towards one of the three Bubble Rabbits.

Although the Bubble Rabbits were only level one demonic beasts, they were still much stronger than wild beasts. Feeling the danger, they immediately fled. The other two frightened Bubble Rabbits also jumped into the grass and disappeared.

"Boss, according to the way Sis is fighting, we will be starving today." Standing on Lin Feng's shoulder, Bebe looked dejected.

Lin Feng was also speechless. With Di Liya's strength as a Level 2 Magician, killing these three Level 1 Magical Beasts should be very easy. However, the small wind blade that Di Liya had released earlier, rather than killing these three magical beasts, it was more appropriate to say that it had scared them away.

Seeing that it was already late, Lin Feng knew that if he did not make a move, he would probably be starving today.

After using the Wind of Insight to find a few Bubble Rabbits, he killed them casually, skinned them, and roasted them.

Lin Feng killed one, Di Liya killed half, and the rest were eaten by Bebe. He did not know how Bebe's small body could contain the meat of the Bubble Rabbits that were several times bigger than him.

The next day, Lin Feng and the others still did not go deep into the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Today's mission was only to let Di Liya personally kill a Bubble Rabbit.

The fourth day!

Di Liya finally made up her mind and killed a Bubble Rabbit with her own hands.

The ninth day!

Killing the Bubble Rabbit was no longer difficult for Di Liya. Lin Feng gave Di Liya a new mission — to kill a Level 2 Magical Beast, the Earth Scorpion.

Although the strength of the Earth Scorpion was slightly higher than the Bubble Rabbit, its appearance was not good enough to arouse Di Liya's love, which directly led to Di Liya completing the mission very quickly.

Although Di Liya could personally kill the Earth Scorpion, there was still a gap between her and Lin Feng's requirements to instantly kill the Earth Scorpion. Therefore, in the following month, Di Liya fought with the Earth Scorpions every day. As the Earth Scorpions were killed by Di Liya one after another, Di Liya's fighting skills became more and more proficient, and her speed of killing the Earth Scorpions also became faster and faster. From the beginning when she was struggling to kill one Earth Scorpion, to being able to deal with the attacks of five Earth Scorpions at the same time.

Bei Bei, who was lying lazily on Lin Feng's shoulder, looked at Di Liya, who was killing the earth scorpions, and said to Lin Feng in his soul, "Boss, how long are you going to let Sister-in-law kill the earth scorpions? If we keep killing like this, I think the earth scorpions in this area will all be extinct."

Today was the twenty-ninth day that Lin Feng and the others had entered the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts. In the past month, there had been no less than eight hundred earth scorpions that had died in Di Liya's hands.

Lin Feng spread his hands and said, "This is something we can't do. You also know that Di Liya is soft-hearted. If we don't let her train, it would be equivalent to harming her in the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts. Moreover, with her strength as a Level Two Magician, only the earth scorpions that are not fast and have low attack power are suitable for her training."

"I think that in about half a month, Di Liya will be able to level up to a Level Three Magician. At that time, she can change her training targets."

On the forty-seventh day, when Di Liya casually killed an earth scorpion with a Wind Blade, she suddenly felt refreshed. She had leveled up. After fighting with the earth scorpions for more than a month, Di Liya had finally leveled up from a Level Two Magician to a Level Three Magician. However, the price she had paid was the lives of thousands of earth scorpions.

Feeling that she had leveled up, Di Liya immediately threw away the opponent in front of her — the earth scorpions, and ran to Lin Feng's side, saying excitedly, "Lin Feng, I've leveled up. I've finally leveled up."

Di Liya's excitement was beyond words. Although she had been fighting with the earth scorpions every day for more than a month and was already tired of it, compared to the increase in her strength, all of this was not worth mentioning. Back then, she had spent a whole year to advance from a Level 1 Magician to a Level 2 Magician, but now, she had only spent two months to advance from a Level 2 Magician to a Level 3 Magician.

Battle was indeed the best way to break through.

"Congratulations, Di Liya." This was all within Lin Feng's expectations. After all, although Di Liya's talent was not as good as his and Di Kexi's, she was still an official student of the Ernst Institute. Her talent was naturally not bad.

"Wuwu, boss, sister-in-law has already leveled up to a Level 3 Magician. In the future, don't kill these earth scorpions anymore. Bebe, I have been bored of these earth scorpions these days." Bebe, who was lying on Lin Feng's shoulder, transmitted his voice to Lin Feng with some grievance.

"Haha, don't complain. From tomorrow onwards, we will set off towards the inner regions of the Magical Beast Mountain Range." Lin Feng laughed loudly and announced their journey.
