The saint starts out by traveling around the world with a group of elves.

"Brother Shitou, it's time for you to wake up!"

Shi Tou slept very deeply and he didn't know how long he slept. When he was half conscious, he heard someone calling him.

He opened his eyes, but it was dark around him and a pair of small hands were tightly holding her palms.

"Great, Brother Shitou, you finally woke up!"

Xiaoying cheered in surprise, and memories flooded into her mind like a tide, and Shitou reacted immediately.

Did I survive this?

Shi Tou heaved a sigh of relief, and then quickly asked into the darkness:

"Xiaoying, how long have I been unconscious? Have you encountered any wild beast attacks?"

"Brother Shitou, you slept for almost a whole day. The wild beasts can't find me. Xiaoying is very smart!"

Lei Ying's tone was full of confidence. Shi Tou could even imagine the proud expression on the little girl's face. He couldn't help but smile.

"Xiaoying, let's go out first."

"Ok!"

Shi Tou and Lei Ying crawled out of the crevice. They felt nothing when they came in, but when they came out, Shi Tou found that the crevice was really deep. Perhaps because of this, the smell on Shi Tou's body was not discovered by the wild beast.

After staying in the dark crevice for too long, the dark red ground actually made the stone feel a little brighter.

"Brother Shitou, do you want to visit my tribe?"

As soon as she came out, Lei Ying couldn't wait to invite Shi Tou. She looked at Shi Tou eagerly, obviously hoping that Shi Tou would agree.

"Xiaoying, wait a little longer. I need to prepare some water to drink on the way."

Shi Tou did not agree directly. He had already realized that water was more important than food in the abyss, so he needed to prepare some water to drink on the road.

"Oh, okay."

Xiaoying felt a little disappointed, but she quickly recovered. After all, Shitou was not not going, he just had to wait a while before going.

Shitou doesn't have any water container on him now, but that's not a problem. All he needs is the skin of a wild beast and he can make a water bag, which doesn't take too much time.

Shitou didn't plan to look for the two beast corpses. He just stood there and waited quietly.

"Roar~!!"

Not long after, the ground began to shake, and a level 40 beast over meters tall, was leading a group of level beasts to surround them.

"Xiaoying, find a place to hide!"

"Okay, Brother Shitou, keep going!"

In fact, Xiaoying didn't even need the stone to remind her. The little girl moved very quickly and immediately hid back in the crevice where she had been before. She only poked her little head out and looked at them with a pair of big black eyes.

Shi Tou closed his eyes, recalling the feeling from before, the confidence and excitement in the battle. His intuition told him that this was the key to the advancement of the Secret Hunter Battle Dance!

After a moment, Shi Tou opened his eyes, and the aura emanating from his body changed completely. Looking at the oncoming tide of wild beasts, a smile appeared on Shi Tou's face at some point.

He stepped hard on the ground and rushed forward in an instant like an arrow.

What Shi Tou chose was a head-on confrontation!

There weren't too many surprises in the battle. As I said before, although there were many wild beasts, they didn't know how to cooperate. Even half of the second-level wild beasts were accidentally injured, causing them to lose all their combat effectiveness.

After being hit on the skull for the fifth time, this level three beast, whose name Stone could not remember, finally let out a mournful howl and fell heavily to the ground. After dealing with the remaining level two beasts, Stone did not take a rest and immediately cut off a piece of fur stained with blood and flesh and wrapped himself up.

If it doesn't conceal its breath, Stone will soon face endless attacks from wild beasts.

"Wow! Brother Shitou, you've become even more powerful!"

Xiaoying ran out from the crack in the rock and said admiringly. Shitou adjusted his disordered breathing and asked with a smile:

"Oh? How did Xiaoying know that I've become stronger again?"

"Because I can see it!"

"Brother Shitou, your movements are becoming more and more smooth and natural, and your judgment of timing is becoming more casual and confident. This is progress!"

Shi Tou was stunned. He looked at Xiaoying with an innocent face and suddenly felt that this little girl was really extraordinary.

Shi Tou thought about what Xiaoying said, and he suddenly realized that this was indeed the case, something he himself had not even realized yet!

"Brother Shitou, stop being dazed, we need to hurry!"

"It's very dangerous here, we can't stay here for too long!"

Xiaoying didn't notice anything unusual about Shitou. Her current behavior was similar to that of an 8-year-old girl, except that she was more sensible.

"Yes, Xiaoying, you can rest for a while, I'll be fine soon!"

Shi Tou was confused for a moment but didn't think about it deeply. The current situation did not allow Shi Tou to have any wild thoughts.

"No, Brother Shitou, I'll just watch."

Xiaoying shook her head slightly. The stone did not force it, but immediately began to separate the essence of the flesh and blood of this third-level beast.

Shi Tou couldn't eat much and didn't plan to pack anything up to take away. Except for some water, Shi Tou wouldn't take anything with him.

There was no fire, which was not realistic, so Shi Tou could only eat raw. He took big bites of the essence of flesh and blood in his hands, and soon filled his stomach to 80% full.

Stone discarded the remaining flesh and blood without hesitation. He used the iron axe in his hand to cut a part of the beast's skin and made a simple water bag. After filling it with water, he secretly memorized the surrounding terrain and left without hesitation.

He planned to go to Lei Ying's tribe. No matter what, he had to send Lei Ying back safely.

In the white snow, a team was trudging along with difficulty. It was a team of twenty people, led by Xia Li.

Their original team of fifty people had split up. One group continued to move north to notify the tribes along the way to relocate, while the other group, led by Xia Li, headed directly south back to the Xia tribe.

After all, if it was just to notify the tribes along the way to relocate, so many people would not be needed. Xia Li himself mentioned at the beginning that his main task was to investigate the traces of the fourth-level beast - the King of the Mountains.

A golden bounty order has solved all the problems, even related to ironware, so Xia Li chose to return and pass the news back to the Xia tribe as soon as possible.

And, bring his sister home.

"Xiao Qian, I promise you, I will tell my father when I get back."

During this journey, Xia Qian only spoke one sentence to Xia Li. The rest of the time, he was like a puppet, remaining silent.

The only words she said were to ask Xia Li to persuade the witch of the Xia tribe to allow her to accept the engraving of the witch pattern and officially join the Xia tribe's hunting team.

"you swear."

Xia Qian's voice was a little hoarse. Xia Li didn't know whether his sister had cried alone at night, but it should have been the case.

"Well, I swear to my ancestors!"

Xia Li sighed inwardly and made his own vow.
