Extraordinary Awakening, starting with Samadhi True Fire

The next day.

South gate of Luojiang Academy.

"Beep! Beep!"

"Xiao Weiqing, over here!"

A gigantic armored vehicle, enormous in size, estimated to be two stories tall, lay sprawled on the ground like a steel fortress.

Fei Xiaobao was in the driver's seat.

Xiao Weiqing walked in; the space was very large.

There were already 4 people at this point.

Qin Tian, ​​Duan Shuyu, Xue Cheng, and a girl named Yin Tiantian.

Including Xiao Weiqing, there are a total of 6 people.

Qin Tian said, "Xiao Weiqing, have you looked at the mission?"

"Um."

Qin Tian sent him the task last night.

Qin Tian and his team had a series of team missions.

It is located 300 kilometers away from Luojiang Academy.

They discovered the trail of a pack of wolf-like monsters, and their mission was to wipe them out.

Xue Cheng said, "Although it's only a level two mission, we can't let our guard down. Usually, a wolf pack has fewer than 20 members, but I don't know why this pack of wolf demons has more than 50 members."

Fei Xiaobao said, "Don't worry, with our team's setup, it'll be a piece of cake. As long as we find those monsters, we'll capture them easily."

Fei Xiaobao's words made sense. A level two mission meant that the monster's strength was at most at the second realm, and their team originally consisted of five people.

Melee combat, ranged attacks, mental control – the setup is maxed out. Now, with Xiao Weiqing added to the mix, Fei Xiaobao has no idea how he can lose.

"Sit tight, let's go!"

Rumble!

Fei Xiaobao stepped on the gas.

The steel behemoth started moving instantly, and everyone felt a tremendous push against their backs.

"Fei Xiaobao, slow down, or you'll crash."

Fei Xiaobao: "Don't worry, I spent two and a half hours practicing yesterday, now I'm a pro."

"..."

Xiao Weiqing was speechless. "Are you sure it's okay to let him drive?"

Xue Cheng laughed and said, "It's alright. Duan Shuyu and I will take turns with him later. This section of the road is relatively flat, so let him have some fun."

Xue Cheng, Duan Shuyu, and Qin Tian are all from prominent families, and these transportation skills are essential for them to learn.

Xiao Weiqing felt relieved and closed his eyes.

An hour later.

Xue Cheng replaced Fei Xiaobao.

Fei Xiaobao seemed to still have some lingering interest.

"Holy crap?"

"Xiao Weiqing, you're not cultivating, are you?" Fei Xiaobao exclaimed.

Xiao Weiqing opened his eyes; he had indeed just been refining essence fire.

"Anyway, I'm just idling around."

Fei Xiaobao asked, "Impressive, how do you manage to calm down?"

Everyone was puzzled; they simply couldn't do it.

Xiao Weiqing didn't explain. He was refining the essence fire, and watching it grow little by little gave him a great sense of accomplishment, so he became even more focused.

As the armored vehicles moved away from Luojiang.

The wilderness slowly unfolded before everyone's eyes.

"So this is what the wilderness looks like. The scenery isn't bad at all." Fei Xiaobao curiously peered out the window.

Xiao Weiqing looked outside and thought it was an apocalyptic scene, with everything in ruins.

Xue Cheng asked, "So what do you think it will look like?"

"Now humans are highly concentrated in cities, and the outside environment is no longer damaged by humans, so development is too good."

"Only these dilapidated roads under our feet still retain traces of a hundred years ago, indicating that we were once the masters of this place."

Fei Xiaobao said happily, "Yes, it has indeed developed well, becoming a paradise for monsters."

"..."

"Look, a blood deer."

A herd of deer, nearly two meters long, ran freely on the grassland.

It's not much different from the deer of old, except it's a size larger, entirely red, and doesn't qualify as a deer.

As you move further away from the city center, the number of monsters increases.

However, faced with the mobile fortress, all the monsters that did not enter the territory avoided it.

These monsters pose a limited degree of danger.

"Hold on tight."

The sun was shining brightly in the sky.

Six hours later.

The group finally arrived at their destination.

"Let's take a break, eat something, and scout out the surrounding area before dark."

Just then.

Boom!

There was a loud crash outside.

"What the hell?" Fei Xiaobao exclaimed in surprise.

Xue Cheng glanced at the monitor and said, "A Black Wind Tiger."

No one paid any attention.

The Xuanfeng Tiger, a first-tier creature, is a close relative of the Jifeng Tiger and poses no threat to them.

"Damn, that scared the hell out of me! Open the window and let me spray it to death!"

Xue Cheng said, "Forget it, it was probably attracted by the sound of the car. We don't need to worry about it, it will leave in a while. Killing it will only attract other monsters with its bloody smell."

"Alright, consider it lucky."

The group ate dry rations.

Qin Tian asked, "Which of you has killed a demon beast?"

"I didn't. I was just about to kill that tiger," Fei Xiaobao said.

Xiao Weiqing also shook his head, "I don't have any either."

"You've never killed anyone either?" the crowd couldn't help but ask curiously.

Xiao Weiqing shrugged. "Is it strange?"

Xue Cheng slapped his forehead. "I suddenly remembered, you came from an orphanage."

"Have you all killed anyone?"

Qin Tian, ​​Duan Shuyu, and Xue Cheng all nodded, as did Yin Tiantian.

"Starting when we were ten years old, we had to kill a few monsters every year, of course, the cubs."

Qin Tian then said, "Wait a moment, I'll be in a group with Yin Tiantian."

"Xue Cheng and Xiao Weiqing are in the same group."

"Duan Shuyu and Fei Xiaobao are in the same group."

"Let's split into three groups and explore in three directions. We'll also have Xiao Weiqing and Fei Xiaobao find some first-tier demonic beasts to practice on and see some blood."

Remember to come back before dark.

The group nodded in agreement with Qin Tian's arrangement.

Half an hour later.

The six people split into three teams and dispersed in three different directions.

Xiao Weiqing and Xue Cheng are on the same team.

"Hey Xiao Weiqing, why didn't I see you playing in the ranked matches yesterday? We won't be back until next month."

"With your skills, entering level 20 should be a piece of cake, after all, you even defeated level 6."

Holding the Crimson Dragon, Xiao Weiqing walked forward with Xue Cheng and replied, "There's no need. Ranks 11 to 100 all grant 2000 resources."

Xue Cheng was surprised, "You're so optimistic. I'm still struggling in the top 150. I wish I had your mindset."

Xiao Weiqing was surprised, "So what if I have this mentality?"

"Can you make it into the top 20?"

Xue Cheng: "?"

"屮!"

The scene fell silent instantly.

The two walked for a while longer.

Xue Cheng stopped in his tracks. "Something's getting closer."

"Whoosh~"

"Whoosh~"

"..."

The sound of leaves rustling came from the bushes, and a dark shadow rapidly approached.

"Awoo..."

A black panther suddenly leaped out.

The Shadow Leopard is a first-tier demonic beast, known for its speed and ability to hide.

Xiao Weiqing took a step forward, the crimson dragon in his hand enveloped in flames.

"Pfft!"

The shadowy leopard's head was severed from its body.

Xiao Weiqing waved his hand, and two flames flew out, burning the wound, stopping the blood flow, and emitting a fragrant aroma of flesh.

Xue Cheng was surprised by Xiao Weiqing's decisiveness.

"Xiao Weiqing, is this really your first time in the wild?"

"Um."

"Impressive, even their handling of corpses is so skillful."

If they don't stop the spread of the bloody smell, they might encounter other monsters when they return.

Xiao Weiqing continued walking forward, "I checked the forum before coming out, and the seniors' experiences were very helpful."

The two walked for an hour.

They encountered several ignorant first-realm demonic beasts, but they didn't waste much time and were all killed by Xiao Weiqing with a single strike.

"Let's go, let's take a detour and go back to see if there are any traces of the moon wolf pack."

"it is good."

On the way back.

The two encountered two Black Wind Tigers in the bushes.

Just as Xiao Weiqing was about to kill the two Xuanfeng Tigers, Xue Cheng spoke up to stop him.

"Xiao Weiqing, etc."

"What? You're here?"

"No, there are cubs."

Xiao Weiqing looked closely and saw two Xuanfeng Tigers wary of them, with three cubs beneath their massive bodies.

"Very valuable?"

Xue Cheng shook his head. "A first-tier one isn't worth many points. What I find strange is that this doesn't look like a Xuanfeng Tiger's lair. Why would they appear here, especially when they're nurturing their cubs?"

"And look, doesn't the wound on that Black Wind Tiger on the left look like wolf claw marks?"

Xiao Weiqing asked, "You mean they were driven out?"

"Yes, very likely. If we just search in the directions they haven't been active in, we might find something."

Xiao Weiqing nodded.

The two bypassed the Black Wind Tiger and explored in another direction.

We walked for another half hour.

"Found it, the Moon Wolf's droppings, and there's more and more of them."

Xue Cheng crushed a handful of feces and smelled it.

Xiao Weiqing frowned. "You found it, so why did you hold the feces in your hand and smell it?"

They are all cultivators, so their eyesight, hearing, and sense of smell are much more sensitive; they can smell it even without holding it in their hands.

"Cough...cough..."

"Isn't that how it's portrayed in movies and TV shows?"

Xiao Weiqing was speechless for a moment.

"Let's go back first."

The two did not continue forward, but turned and left.

But little did they know.

A pair of eerie blue eyes watched the direction the two had left from the shadows before disappearing into the forest.
