Zhang Yuan's

Dangers in Travel

Right now Zhang Yuan with elder Xia was running not too slow and not too fast.

“Chairman Xia right now I want to hide my identity, so from now on I will act as your son and you as my mother.” Zhang Yuan said as he looked at her.

“Alright my master, if it is like that then we do.” Elder Xia's.

After that they occasionally discussed in the middle of the journey. Their destination was the bamboo curtain mountain range, one of the mysterious places that existed on the continent. Even the residents in that place are mysterious. So they have to prepare several scenarios for everything that will happen.

Amidst the journey precisely in the forest outside the City, they met a herd of tier 3 spirit beasts. Not just one group, but until meeting with 5 groups. This is quite strange because it rarely happens.

After defeating the herd of spirit beasts, Zhang Yuan occasionally strayed the corpse of the boss of the herd. Maybe it will be very useful. Then they continued their journey.

“Sir, there seems to be something strange. We always encounter a herd of spirit beasts that are seen in a rampaging mode. It is very strange.” Elder Xia said.

Zhang Yuan turned his head to look at elder Xia and said “You're right, I also feel a weirdness. But leave it alone and keep going.”

Then they accelerated the speed and sped away. Passing through mountains, lakes and valleys. A day passed, a week, a month and did not feel 3 months passed and they finally reached the border area.

The border area was an extremely hot desert area before they could get to the bamboo curtain mountain range. As they walked into the desert, the sand around them moved.

Not long after from within the sand appeared a level 4 spirit beast. That spirit beast was a fire scorpion. His body was large and he reached 3 meters in height with his six legs. With both an enormous claw and a tail that resembled a spear covered in poison. It was an extremely terrifying spirit beast.

As Zhang Yuan and elder Xia began to set foot in the desert, they entered the area of fire scorpion power. Since this was their first time, it was obvious that the two of them did not know about it.

“Sir, please be careful.” Said elder Xia who was on standby in front of Zhang Yuan.

“Groaaaaaa..”

The fire scorpion let out an extremely loud roar, then it immediately shot closer to Zhang Yuan and elder Xia. The fire scorpion was about to attack with its tail and they immediately dodged it.

Booms!

The sound of an explosion due to the tail of a fire scorpion that hit the sand earth. The area around the attack was hollow and green mucus from scorpions filled the hole.

“My master be careful, he has a strong attack and is very poisonous.”

A moment after elder Xia said that, the mouth of the fire scorpion opened and an extremely hot burst of fire came out about to hit the two of them. Quickly they then avoided.

“Damn it, this scorpion is really dangerous.” Zhang Yuan Mumbled.

Then Zhang Yuan turned into a black mist and darted slashing at the foot of the fire scorpion.

“Ting. ting..”

The sound of Zhang Yuan's sword strike hitting the foot of the fire scorpion. Instead of being injured, the foot of the fire scorpion still seemed fine. The moment Zhang Yuan's sword hit the leg was the same as Zhang Yuan slashing an iron rod. Though the sword used by him was a tier 4 spirit heirloom.

“That's a foot or not a heck.” Zhang Yuan said furiously.

“My master, let's attack again together with our soul force.” Shouted elder Xia.

On the other hand, elder Xia clenched his fists and gathered a large amount of soul energy and darted also toward the fire scorpion. He struck the body of the scorpion and Zhang Yuan slashed the leg of the scorpion.

The scorpion seemed to let out another roar very loudly. But Zhang Yuan and elder Xia still continued to attack the fire scorpion with all their might. Not staying still, the scorpion wagged its tail towards elder Xia.

Not having time to avoid making Elder Xia exposed to the flaming scorpion tail. Elder Xia was thrown far enough to hit a huge rock. Now Elder Xia spewed out a mouthful of blood and coughed.

“Tua Xia!” zhang Yuan shouted from a distance.

Zhang Yuan's eyes reddened with emotion. He then unleashed his soul force again into the sword and darted out to attack the fire scorpion. After a lot of slashes.

Now the fire scorpion began to roar in pain. Zhang Yuan who saw this smiled and began to feel a sense of victory. Soon a fire aura came out from the body of the scorpion and he entered a rampaging mode. The effect of the burst of fire aura caused Zhang Yuan to crash by several meters.

Currently the fire scorpion was seen enveloped by the aura of red flames surrounding his body. The elder Xia who had been injured was now approaching near Zhang Yuan.

“My lord, this fire scorpion is really weird. How can we both have trouble fighting it.” Elder Xia said.

“You're right, but let's attack him again.”

After saying that, Zhang Yuan and elder Xia darted again attacking the fire scorpion with all their strength. The scorpion that was in a rampaging mode of strength was comparable to a tier 5 spirit beast. Of course it was a very difficult power for them to fight.

But with the determination of both of them, for 2 days in a row. They continued to attack the fire scorpion until he started to get tired. Now the aura of fire around the scorpion was slowly beginning to extinguish.

“My lord, this scorpion is really great. Now he is exhausted and it will be very easy for us to kill him.” Elder Xia said.

“Let's knock him out and you'll have to make a master and pet contract with the beast. In the future he will greatly help us.” Zhang Yuan said with a grin.

“Hah? Are you sure, sir? Don't you want to have it yourself?”

Elder Xia looked at Zhang Yuan in astonishment. Zhang Yuan sighed and waved his hand.

“I don't really fit the beast, I have my own target.”

After saying that elder Xia nodded. The two of them then launched yet another powerful attack towards the fire scorpion. Due to exhaustion in the rampaging mode made the scorpion start to weaken and then elder Xia launched an extremely powerful fist towards the scorpion.

The scorpion roared in pain from the attack and just then elder Xia immediately injured the tissue to drip blood on the fire scorpion and formed a pet contract seal.

Now the fire scorpion of a tier 4 spirit beast whose strength equaled level 5 was successfully paralysed and became their comrade.

Zhang Yuan laughed and said “Congratulations elder Xia, now you have your own pet. What's more he has a very strong power in the rampage mode.”

“Thank you, this is all thanks to you.” Elder Xia's.

When they are in that happy state. The sand beneath them began to shake again.

“What's this!” zhang Yuan said in surprise.
