In the end Qing Hu's tent completely collapsed on her sleeping self. Surprisingly, the girl did not wake up because of it. Or maybe you prefer to sleep in a collapsed tent rather than outside with all sorts of earth dwellers.

Huo Bing himself did not know when Qing Hu's tent had collapsed. To be sure, when he woke up Qing Hu's tent had already collapsed accompanied by Qing Hu's faint breathing sound.

The bird was looking for a good idea to wake Qing Hu up. A few moments later, he found her.

He looked for some worms, something easy for a bird, and then put them in Qing Hu's tent. It didn't take long, the worm had awakened Qing Hu well.

"YAHOO!!!!"

It was the first time for Huo Bing to hear Qing Hu's cry naturally, without being contrived. Qing Hu instantly got up and tried to get out as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, the girl instead looked like she was fighting with her own tent.

Huo Bing had wanted to add a few more jokes, but the surge of spiritual aura was again felt and came from the same place as yesterday.

He decided to stop joking and instantly killed a red spotted deer that happened to pass by. Unfortunately, he forgot that Qing Hu was still busy fighting with his own tent.

"Need help?"

"YES! Help me!"

A BLAR!

In an instant, Qing Hu's tent caught fire and left the girl with her messy appearance and a few strands of her hair on fire.

Before the girl could protest, Huo Bing handed over the freshly cooked venison and stuffed Qing Hu's mouth full-fledged.

"When you're done eating, leave quickly. It seems that the place you mentioned is not far away anymore."

Qing Hu had just gotten his first bite and Huo Bing had already asked him to hurry? But he did not have time to protest as Huo Bing seemed to really be leaving in a moment.

It was unbelievable, Qing Hu managed to finish her breakfast in less than five minutes. However, Huo Bing still found it slow. He had started to move even before Qing Hu had time to change clothes.

It seemed that Huo Bing already did not need Qing Hu too much anymore. The bird could figure out where the origin of the previous energy surge came from. So now Qing Hu had to hurry or Huo Bing was going to leave him. The girl couldn't laze around and use the excuse of 'If you want to go, just go alone. Do you know the place?'

Not yet an hour they walked, there were already hordes of Spirit Beasts blocking them. About 7 or 8 Necro-Monkey tails were blocking their way.

Huo Bing frowned. He could sense the various Spirit Beasts that were not far from them. This Necro-Monkey was only the lowest Spirit Beast. He cannot be disturbed by them. There were still other Spirit Beasts that were stronger and he had to watch out for them.

So this time he did not cast Qing Hu as usual. He just slapped the nape of the girl to close his eyes for a moment. When he opened his eyes, the monkeys were no longer breathing. Even though he was forced to close his eyes in shock, he was still faintly able to see the thin blades that glittered through the bodies of the monkeys.

Of course, Huo Bing did not give him the time to react. The bird rushed forward.

"Come on!"

What other choice did Qing Hu have? While grunting in annoyance he followed Huo Bing.

Behind a tree, Huo Bing knelt to hide himself. He signaled for Qing Hu to follow him slowly.

"What's wrong?"

"Sttt!"

Huo Bing poked her head out from behind the tree and looked at the two groups of animals that were being tense. Airblow Phanter and Bloodmist Deer were looking at each other. Huo Bing had no idea what made the two groups yet to fight, but each of them possessed abilities that should not be underestimated.

The Airblow Phanter had extremely fast movements, while the Bloodmist Deer was famous for its misleading fog. Both of them were equivalent to Qi 9 Forming stage Cultivators. Based on that alone was enough for Huo Bing to be careful. He was indeed stronger than them, but he had to pay a heavy price to kill the two groups. If he could, he would not want to find trouble with them.

And he knew, even if these two groups were strong enough, but there were still other more powerful Spirit Beasts waiting. He shouldn't waste time and energy here.

Suddenly, she felt something strange. These two groups of animals are not the kind that are at odds with each other. What caused them to face each other here?

At a certain level, Spirit Beasts possessed human-like intelligence. While at an even higher level, Spirit Beasts can transform into humans. Huo Bing and Heiliao were also able to turn into humans due to their former glory life. With their current strength, it should still be impossible to turn into a human.

Huo Bing widened his aura and tried to catch the conversation between the two groups of animals. Apparently the Bloodmist Deers were looking for their missing child. They felt the existence of their child not far from here. Or at least, the aura of their child.

Huo Bing suddenly remembered something. Bloodmist Deer's son? He glanced back at the group of deer and saw that they had the same motif as the deer he had eaten some time ago.

Gluey!

God fucking.

Hurry Huo Bing invited Qing Hu to run away. It was better he twisted a little than dealing with these animals.

BRUK!

Those Bloodmist Deers directly butted the tree where Huo Bing and Qing Hu were hiding. They examined Huo Bing and Qing Hu before realizing that this was where their son's aura came from.

And those deer are crazy. They tried their hardest to kill Huo Bing and Qing Hu. Some kicked, some gore, while some let out mist from their horns.

Huo Bing, as an extremely male bird, fled as fast as he could. A short while later he only realized that Qing Hu was still motionless.

He had to go back and hit the girl on the head,

"Run, fool!"

Huo Bing's remarks proved effective. Qing Hu immediately stood up and stepped out his feet as quickly as possible.

"Dam. How they were-" Huo Bing's speech came to a halt when he saw the corner of Qing Hu's mouth that was still a straw. "Stupid! Why don't you clean your mouth? At least wipe that stag smell out of your mouth."

Usually Huo Bing was not very sensitive with a mouth that was scornful. But this time the story is different because it concerns their lives.

"What?! Who hasn't given me time to clean up?!"

Huo Bing could only curse while continuing to run. He looked back to check, but there was no deer chasing. Bizarrely. There should be no way they get away with it that easily.

Then, Huo Bing looked at his surroundings and only realized the red mist that had surrounded them since earlier.

"What's that fog?"

"The origin of the deer. They used to use this fog to outwit their prey. Apparently this fog proved more effective when done in groups."

"Do you have to discuss the latter at a time like this? What are the side effects of this fog?"

"Eitherway. No one has ever lived after being surrounded by this fog. That's why they're called 'Blood-Mist'. Blood Fog. Because after this fog disappears it must leave a pool of blood."

"Hey."

Huo Bing looked over.

"What are you talking about?" qing Hu asked with a strange expression. "Why does your face suck anyway? I think I'm gonna kill you."

Huo Bing's brows furrowed. It was not usual for Qing Hu to talk like that. Then he realized this must be the effect of the fog. Rather than killing those bastards who had eaten their children, it was better to let the two fight to the death alone. Huo Bing guessed that was what the deer thought.

"The more you look, the more annoying your face becomes. I'll kill you, okay?"

"Damn. My face is handsome tofu!"

"Masa? But why would I want to kill you?"

"That's because you're crazy!"

Hearing Qing Hu who continued to say 'kill' Huo Bing became annoyed. That girl is so arrogant. Could he kill Huo Bing, this great Cygnix? He had to kill the girl to tell her his true strength. A girl just wants to kill him? Just yummy!

Just when Huo Bing was about to kill Huo Bing, he regained his senses. The fog almost affected him. A little careless then he would fight to the death with Qing Hu. Although the edges must have been Qing Hu who died, anyway. He's sure of it.

Whereas in his prime, a fog like this would not even be able to touch him in the slightest. He only had to flap his wings for a while and this kind of fog would disappear.

Unfortunately, he was hesitant to repel this fog even if it turned back into a bird given the large number of Bloodmist Deers attacking them. Surely the deer will continue to let out this mist until one or both of them die.

What should he do huh?

Suddenly something flashed through his brain. How could the deer not be affected by their own fog? Is there some kind of special defense? He begins to feel like he has found a plan, though he is still unsure what it is.

He saw Qing Hu trying to kill him because of this fog. What did this fog do to the point of being able to make Qing Hu intend to kill him? What was it stimulating Qing Hu's nerves so all he could think about was killing? Does this mist not give rise to any other illusions?

As he recalled earlier, when he felt the urge to kill, he did not see anything related to illusions. Wait up! How did he know that what he was seeing right now was not an illusion?

After studying Depth Illusion, he came to understand a little about illusions. That's her! He could use Depth Illusion here.

Huo Bing smiled.

Time to fight the illusion with the illusion.
