He Qi muttered in his heart, “I won’t awaken it for the time being.”
He didn’t choose to awaken his wind attribute ability right now. It was daytime, and he was still in the wild area.
If an ultra beast suddenly appeared during the process of awakening, he would suffer a backlash.
The time for awakening wasn’t long. Perhaps, he could awaken it in a safe place.
“It’s already dark. Let’s find a place to rest for the night.”
He Qi looked at the dark sky and said to Xu Shiying.
“Should we take this ultra beast with us?” Xu Shiying pointed at the Dark Blade Cat on the ground and said..
“Of course.”
After He Qi said that, he grabbed one of the Dark Blade Cat’s legs on the ground and looked for a place to rest with Xu Shiying.
The wild areas at night were much more dangerous than the wild areas during the day.
These ultra beasts liked to come out at night to look for food.
They would take advantage of other ultra beasts or humans when they were resting and not paying attention to them, kill them, and then swallow them into their stomachs.
The two of them walked for half an hour with the corpse of an ultra beast. They finally found a small cave that was enough for the two of them to rest in.
He Qi dragged the Dark Blade Cat’s corpse into the cave. He placed the corpse on the ground, walked out of the cave, and picked up the tree branches on the ground.
Seeing this, Xu Shiying, who was in the cave, grabbed the Dark Blade Cat and began to deal with it.
When He Qi lit the fire, Xu Shiying also finished dealing with the Dark Blade Cat.
He Qi took the Dark Blade Cat from her hand and placed it on the fire to roast it.
The sky outside was completely dark. The two of them were roasting the Dark Blade Cat’s meat by the fire in the cave.
Sparks flew everywhere, and the meat on the fire also made a sizzling sound.
He Qi sprinkled some seasoning on the meat and turned it over to roast it.
After roasting it for three minutes, the fragrance came out.
Xu Shiying took a deep breath and said, “It smells so good!”
Hearing her words, He Qi smiled and said, “We can eat it in a few minutes.”
Xu Shiying’s eyes were fixated on the meat roasting on the fire. She couldn’t help but swallow her saliva and replied, “Yes.”
The aroma of the roasted meat spread out from the cave.
It attracted the ultra beasts that were looking for food. The ultra beasts drooled as they walked towards the source of the aroma.
Meanwhile, the two people who had already eaten the roasted meat in the cave were completely unaware of this.
Right at this moment, on a tree outside the cave, an ultra beast was staring at the remaining roasted meat in the cave.
It stretched out its hand, grabbed the vine, and leaped forward. In a few moments, it arrived at the tree closest to the cave.
In the cave, He Qi said to Xu Shiying, “You sleep first. I’ll keep watch.”
“If an ultra beast appears, I’m afraid you won’t be able to deal with it alone. It’s better if we keep watch together.” Xu Shiying looked at He Qi and said.
Hearing this, He Qi smiled and said, “If the ultra beast comes, I can wake you up and deal with it together.”
Hearing He Qi’s words, Xu Shiying was stunned for a moment. That’s right. Why didn’t she think of this?
It seemed that she had really been overly vigilant.
She snapped back to her senses and saw He Qi smiling at her. Her face immediately turned red.
She immediately walked to the side and closed her eyes to sleep.
He Qi looked at her like this and shook his head with a smile. He turned his head to look outside the cave vigilantly.
An hour later, He Qi was standing up and stretching. At this moment, a burst of sound suddenly came from the entrance of the cave.
This made He Qi even more vigilant. He was prepared to immediately attack any ultra beasts that came in.
The noises outside grew louder and louder, as if several ultra beasts were snatching food.
Gradually, the noises got closer and closer, and He Qi woke Xu Shiying up.
Hearing the noises, Xu Shiying immediately stood up and prepared herself, just like He Qi.
At this moment, two ultra beasts walked in from outside.
Upon seeing the ultra beasts, the two of them immediately used their abilities to attack them.
The two ultra beasts were bound by the vines. They stretched out their hands and tore the vines apart.
One of the ultra beasts hammered the ground, and the ground cracked.
The two of them had no choice but to retreat. Xu Shiying once again used her ability to bind the two ultra beasts.
Seeing this, He Qi immediately used his ability on the vines tied to the ultra beasts.
The fire spread in an instant, causing the two level-one low-tier ultra beasts to fall to the ground and roll around.
They used their rolling to try to extinguish the fire.
However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t extinguish the fire.
Seeing this, Xu Shiying once again used her ability on the two ultra beasts. This was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire.
Suddenly, the two ultra beasts stopped struggling. Just as the two thought that they had been killed, they withdrew their abilities.
The two ultra beasts attacked them.
A strong wind blew in the cave, causing the ground to shake violently.
He Qi immediately pulled Xu Shiying to support herself against the wall, not forgetting to use his ability to attack the ultra beasts.
“We must kill them quickly, or we won’t be able to stay here any longer!” He Qi frowned and said loudly.
After hearing those words, Xu Shiying replied loudly, “Alright!”
Following that, the two of them used their abilities to attack the two ultra beasts.
These two ultra beasts were both level-one low-tier, while He Qi had already risen to level-one middle-tier. Although he didn’t know Xu Shiying’s level, He Qi was certain that she wasn’t a low-level-one.
Judging from her skillful maneuvers, it was unlikely that she was still at low-level-one.
The two of them had a tacit understanding when dealing with the two ultra beasts and knew how to work together to maximize the damage.
In less than twenty minutes, the two ultra beasts fell to the ground.
He Qi looked at the two ultra beasts, and the system’s voice appeared in his mind.
