Ants of Gold get more and more restless .

Reddish and creepy moonlight from the blood moon comes through branches of the towering trees and falls in this dangerous dense forest . Lin Luoran’s face is illuminated by the moonlight and it looks unusually pale .
Lin Luoran will never discourage herself before she meets her opponents . She just feels a little weird . Ants of Gold are restless so she looks around . However, she finds no trace of monsters with her eyesight .
High-rank monsters have always been troublesome . What she is facing are also good at hiding . This is really not good news for Lin Luoran .
She frowns slightly and knows that it is time to give up the ant army . However, what lies ahead is still unknown so now she cannot act rashly .
The ant army messes up just when Lin Luoran is in a dilemma .
Ants of Gold behind suddenly stop avoiding the stinky mushroom and rush into the five-meter radius zone together . Lin Luoran sets up a magical shield immediately but it is a little late . Even though she responds quick, her body is splashed by some formic acid . The pain in her wrist is sharp . She lowers her head and finds a few holes caused by the formic acid . Red slough occurs at the wound site in her white wrist like jade .
In the past six months, she has suffered numerous injuries . If cultivators’ metabolism is not different from that of ordinary people, Lin Luoran’s body will be covered with all kinds of scars . It’s said that prolonged illness makes a patient become a doctor . Lin Luoran is very experienced in wound treatment now . Formic acid is troublesome . She is decisive and covers her fingertips with the Gold Wakan to dig out the slough .
The most difficult thing to overcome is not physical pain but psychological feeling when it comes to self-harm . Lin Luoran makes it quick and ruthless . She digs it out and splashes the spring water from space over her wrist to wash away the formic acid thoroughly . As the last step, Lin Luoran crushes the Circulation Bolus and applies it to the wound .
The medicine brings a cold comfort to the wound and her pain gradually eases . Lin Luoran does it quickly while she keeps alert to her surroundings .
The magical shield is covered by lots of ants of Gold . These ants suddenly bursting out are not for attacking her . Looking through the magical shield, Lin Luoran finally glimpses what the high-rank monster hiding behind the ant army looks like .
That thing is about the size of an ordinary ox with a long tail . Covered with ants of Gold, it can’t be seen clearly . Lin Luoran thinks it must be a high-rank monster covered with scales as its armor so that even ants of Gold can do nothing about it .
Ants of Gold grab the monster’s scales tightly . However, it suddenly shakes violently and many ants on its body drop down . Lin Luoran finally sees some black-purple color covered by golden-yellow ants .
This is a monster covered with black and purple scales . After it shakes off ants of Gold, it takes the opportunity . This monster raises its two-or-three-meter long tail high and then slashes it down . Many ants of gold are killed by a blow! Lin Luoran is vigilant . When the long tail slashes down, the whole ground is shaking . No wonder ants of Gold can’t stand it .
This scaled monster slashes dozens of times and it kills all ants of Gold around itself . Ants’ bodies are piled up on the ground, like a pile of harvested wheat… Lin Luoran finally sees the whole monster .

This monster’s body is as big as an ox with short and powerful limbs . It has sharp mouth and it is covered with black-purple hard scales . There are scales even on its eyelids . It is literally “armed to the teeth” .
It opens its mouth and rolls in many corpses of ants of Gold . The monster chews deliciously with a loud sound .
The appearance of this monster reminds Lin Luoran of pangolins of the outside world . This thing is certainly not a pangolin but a high-rank monster with thick skin and no fear of being sieged by ants of Gold . Before showing some other abilities, it has smashed these ants only by its mighty physical strength .
Staying in place is definitely not a good choice for Lin Luoran .
She is not in danger when trapped in the middle of the ant army . The real danger is the monster like a pangolin feeding on ants of Gold . What’s worse, there is another unknown monster not yet to launch attacks but tightly locking its eyes on Lin Luoran .
Where can she run off to?
Lin Luoran makes the decision immediately . To the rear!
For the first time, she summons a flying sword in this monster forest . Passing by the black-purple pangolin, it subconsciously slashes her with its tail but Lin Luoran avoids it flexibly . The pangolin hesitates for a while . Eventually, it doesn’t choose to catch up . It looks down and enjoys its ants of Gold cuisine .
Lin Luoran breaks into a cold sweat and directs the flying sword through the dense forest of ancient trees .
She is right! The black-purple pangolin monster comes for those ants of Gold and she is not its main target!
However, Lin Luoran feels worried about the monster chasing after her . It is obviously not interested in ants of Gold .
That thing seems to be locking her and it decides to put her in its belly . It will not give up until she becomes its dinner tonight .
Lin Luoran’s flying speed is severely affected by the dense trees in the forest . She almost gets caught by the ubiquitous vines and branches for several times . Lin Luoran feels so gloomy . It is a vast sky over ancient trees which is the best place for flying on a sword .
But she knows it cannot work .

The unobstructed sky belongs to flying monsters like pterosaurs .
If Lin Luoran dares to cross the mountain in the air, she will be surrounded by various flying monsters and becomes their delicious food . Flying in the air on a sword is simply like telling those hungry monsters that there is a snack in the sky . Come on, everybody!
Lin Luoran has been flying in the opposite direction far away from the mountain she dreams of . She is tall but can still gain an extra advantage compared with most of the gigantic monsters in terms of size . Lin Luoran escapes for a while in the dense forest . She can clearly feel the blazing eyes locking her behind are a little far away .
She seems to gain some distance between them .
Lin Luoran smiles faintly when she sees some red flowers blooming brightly in the reddish moonlight and a large tree without canopy blocking the road .
She thinks she has found a way to get rid of that monster .
It’s very risky . The method is good but may put her in danger . She needs to plan it well .
Lin Luoran looks at the red flowers and bald tree . She has an idea immediately .
The monster chasing behind her has to take a while to come here . Lin Luoran takes this chance and hacks randomly at flowers with her sword . She also casts some Fire Ball spells . Later on, she hears something coming from the front .
Lin Luoran leans against the bald tree and hides into space .
Without external support, the glowing sacred pearl falls on a branch . But compared with fire, its light is insignificant .
Fire phoenix and others are reproaching her for being so reckless . Lin Luoran is checking the wound on her wrist . It has stopped bleeding and become a scar . She doesn’t even raise her head .
“Do you three have a better plan?”
These three mighty of the past can only hide in space and tell her what to do now . They feel a little embarrassed because of Lin Luoran’s question so they just shut up .

Lin Luoran hides in space herself and leaves the sacred pearl outside on branches . It is definitely very risky and will be really troublesome if a monster accidentally swallows the sacred pearl .
But this time, Lin Luoran is somewhat confident .
She looks at the wound and feels very thirsty after the jungle journey today . The smell on her body has faded out a lot . Now she is not in the territory of low-rank monsters so the stinky mushroom can’t work . Lin Luoran returns to her room on the second floor of the wooden hut . She takes quick bath and changes clothes . It is only eight minutes after she entered space .
Lin Luoran takes a small jar of monkey fruit wine downstairs and drinks it . She finally feels the burning feeling in her throat disappears and the exhaustion of a day is washed away by the warm spirit wine .
She has a pleased hiccup . It has been ten minutes . The two of them should be fighting fiercely now .
The third party benefits from the tussle . Now she can go out and have a look .
A human suddenly appears among branches . The two monsters are so involved in fighting that they do not have time to pay much attention . Lin Luoran hides behind the tree and looks forward . One is a big centipede with a hundred feet and the other is a weird gigantic cockroach .
Lin Luoran only takes a glance . It seems that everything is going well as she plans . She knows she can’t be greedy at this moment . The materials of the high-rank monsters are very unique but she has to survive if she wants to get them . She can’t escape whether the winner is the centipede or the cockroach . Now it is the best time for her to escape .
Lin Luoran jumps down the tree and continues to go deep into the forest .
The monster like a cockroach seems to be kind of intelligent . It is annoyed that Lin Luoran plots it with a trap . The cockroach sees Lin Luoran disappearing in the dense forest quickly and it wants to chase her . However, the centipede is so troublesome that it is stuck in the fighting .
Lin Luoran runs swiftly all the way . Now it is about eleven or twelve o’clock at night . High-rank monsters in the deep forest all go to the edge of the forest for food . This is the best time for her to reach the mountain .
There are countless exotic trees and flowers in the forest . They are going out of Lin Luoran’s sight quickly .
She is finally close to where ants of Gold were . Regardless of other dangers, now she may have gotten rid of the cockroach monster chasing after her all the way?
Everything is such a coincidence .
The centipede is the Rank Seven monster which Lin Luoran fought a few days ago . That day, she stepped on the red flowers living in company of the centipede so the centipede was annoyed and wanted to kill her .
Although she cut off a few feet of that centipede with her flying sword, she was still in a dangerous situation at that time . If there had not been two Rank Eight monsters fighting nearby, Lin Luoran could have not escaped last time .
She cut off the red flower and hid in space . The centipede was startled and then the cockroach monster arrived . It was the only one around so the centipede would naturally regard it as the “murderer” . There are so many connections . The Rank Seven monster which almost killed her last time actually helps her stop the pursuer now . This world is full of coincidence .
Lin Luoran’s mind is still not peaceful as she runs quickly .
Things go well all the way . At the first faintest glimmering of the dawn, she has been already standing under the high mountain .
Months of effort is all for getting closer here and then crossing this mountain . Lin Luoran doesn’t have the time to express her mixed feelings now . The sky will be bright which means hunting monsters will come back at any time .
She has to hide under cover for a while .
Lin Luoran looks around and sees a gigantic tree at the foot of the mountain .
