What do you mean by my awakened profession being Monster Hunter?

Huo Ling'er was quite annoyed and wanted to slap it, but after thinking about it carefully, she smiled and decided to take it back to the palace and train it slowly. What would such a small wolf know? It would definitely rebel.

Seeing that the little wolf had fallen into the hands of the Fire Kingdom princess, the surrounding creatures quickly retreated, for they knew that they could no longer seize the young god and would rather seek another opportunity.

Shi Hao loudly instructed the little wolf, "Little Gray, you must eat a lot and grow fat quickly. If I can't catch any ancient ferocious beast cubs in the future, I will take you back to guard the village."

Upon hearing this, a group of creatures that had not yet gone far stumbled. This was a young god! Did you really think it was a wolf or a fierce dog? You actually wanted to take it back to guard your home and village entrance.

What's even more speechless is that the little gray wolf flapped its wings, nodded earnestly to him, and then turned around to ask Huo Ling'er for food.

This infuriated Huo Ling'er even more, and she wished she could slap them to death. She yelled, "How come you're just like them? You're all gluttons and scoundrels!"

Qi Shi'an's lips twitched, and he silently mocked in his heart: "How come even I am suffering? This little one really is good at ruining reputations."

With their business concluded, the two rode on the nine-headed lion and departed to seek more opportunities for breakthroughs.

In another area, a group of people gathered together, raindrops carrying the glow of the sunset falling on them and creating wisps of smoke.

"So, have you found any trace of those two boys?"

"Not yet, but we captured a creature yesterday. It said that it saw two ferocious youths at the Divine Cave who killed the Feather King and others, and also subdued a lion."

"They have already left."

"Then let's wait for them to come out of that area, and we'll lie in wait here for them to appear."

This group of people is the Rain Clan. They possess a powerful aura. They brought several sealers with them to Hundred Broken Mountains, intending to kill the two little children in one fell swoop.

At this moment, the two boys mentioned by the Rain Clan were riding a nine-headed lion, traversing the mountains in search of the Fountain of Immortality.

The nine-headed lion was cast entirely in gold, strong and awe-inspiring, with an extremely dazzling golden mane, like an ancient deity, walking through the mountains and causing countless creatures to tremble.

"I'm not seeing things, am I? That's a nine-headed lion, a legendary remnant species, incredibly powerful. How could it have been reduced to a mount?"

"Who are those two boys? How could they make such a powerful and proud nine-headed lion willingly become their mount?"

"Even an invincible king has moments of weakness?"

Countless creatures in the mountains were shocked. They refused to believe what they were seeing. The majestic nine-headed lion, known as the king of the ancient species, with the divine blood of its ancestors flowing through its veins, was renowned far and wide.

Now, a nine-headed golden lion with terrifying bloodline and strength has actually been subdued by a human youth. This is absolutely astonishing news.

"Wow, little brother, you're really something. Just a stroll through the mountains and forests is enough to terrify all the beasts and birds," Shi Hao praised.

During these days of running around, the nine-headed lion was forced to become a subordinate because Shi Hao disliked being called "master".

He wanted to use the reputation of the Nine-Headed Lion to infiltrate the ancient species circle, so that he could freely choose his ingredients.

The nine-headed lion was living under someone else's roof and had no way to resist. If it did resist, it would inevitably be beaten up, leaving it bruised and battered, which would damage its kingly reputation.

However, it was filled with resentment along the way; it had once been a king who dominated all directions and looked down upon the world.

Now, however, it is being used as a mount by two little children, which makes it ashamed and feel that it has disgraced the divine power of its ancestors.

"These mountains are truly paradise! So much delicious food, it makes me a little hungry."

Shi Hao's eyes swept around, and many creatures kept their distance, not daring to approach the nine-headed lion even slightly.

"However, it's been unusually quiet along the way, which is a bit strange."

"Hey, has anything unusual been happening here lately?"

As they were about to leave this area and enter another unfamiliar environment, Qi Shi'an casually asked a question.

Qi Shi'an felt that the journey had been unusually peaceful. It was understandable that other creatures feared the nine-headed lion, but the humans should have already received news of the divine cave.

Knowing their location, he should have ambushed them, but there was no sign of them, which made him uneasy.

He didn't believe that those powerful forces would let the two of them off easily, especially the Rain Clan and the six great clans.

They were surprised to learn that they had received a piece of news that made their hearts skip a beat.

Chapter 41 Encounter Battle

As Qi Shi'an and his group entered another area, they learned some news from a ferocious bird.

In recent days, humans have been constantly coming and going, seemingly waiting for someone, and have also set up some unknown things on the other side.

Qi Shi'an knew without a doubt that it must be those forces that hated him to the bone, who wanted to ambush and kill them the moment they stepped into the area.

"You two are infamous, and now so many human experts are going out to capture you. I'm going to be dragged down with you."

The nine-headed lion was in despair, unable to escape. If it crossed to the other side, it would be implicated by the two men and ambushed and killed on the spot. It was caught in a dilemma.

"Nonsense, it must be a powerful human who wants to capture you to refine that sixth-grade spirit pill, causing us to suffer as well."

"However, don't be afraid. Your brother will lend you a hand and kill them all without leaving a single one alive."

Shi Hao patted his chest and said righteously.

Qi Shi'an, who was standing to the side, felt a little ashamed upon hearing this. He admitted that he couldn't compare to Shi Hao when it came to lying without blushing, as Shi Hao could come up with lies so easily.

What kind of Six-Turn Elixir is this? I've never even heard of it.

Even if such a thing existed, who would openly proclaim it everywhere? Wouldn't they be afraid of being united by ferocious beasts and being surrounded and killed?

The nine-headed lion rolled its eyes at Shi Hao, finding his words rather unreliable.

However, it was not entirely at ease, because it had indeed heard similar rumors about elixirs before coming in.

"Here's what we'll do: you guys go through the other passage and circle around to their rear, while I'll go in from here. We'll attack from both sides and have a good fight."

Qi Shi'an proposed an idea, but it was immediately refuted by Shi Hao: "No! It's too dangerous. We have no idea how many of them there are."

“Let’s go through another passage together and outflank them from there.”

"That's the decision."

Shi Hao didn't give Qi Shi'an a chance to speak at all, and immediately ordered the nine-headed lion to take a detour.

There are two passages leading to the outside world in this area. They quickly changed direction and headed towards the other path.

Before the other passage, a misty haze hung in the air, dappled with the glow of sunset. Behind it lay a vast, watery kingdom, devoid of any living creatures, for it was far too remote.

Qi Shi'an and his group ventured over and found the spiritual energy in this area to be incredibly rich, but the dampness made them feel quite uncomfortable.

The golden lions galloped onward, and when they encountered ferocious beasts, they tried to leave as quickly as possible to avoid being discovered by the human powerhouses.

Suddenly, as they stepped into a mountainous region, runes flashed and various divine lights pierced through them, slashing at them like sharp swords. They had no choice but to fight back with all their might.

This was a large array of runes. They stepped into it, activating the ancient array and turning this place into a land of calamity. Streams of divine light swept across, leveling the mountains and forests.

"What a powerful formation!"

The three fought with all their might, unleashing their respective treasures in an attempt to force their way out, otherwise they would be discovered if they delayed even a little.

Qi Shi'an offered up a precious bone, which he had obtained from the passage to the Void God Realm. He had already comprehended its mysteries and used the Myriad Dao Tree to transform the rune culture into a more primitive rune.

He then infused these primordial runes into a precious bone, forcibly transforming it into a rune bone containing endless primordial runes, thus altering the runes within it.

This piece of talisman bone can now affect some ancient formations, making them unstable and creating a slight flaw. Although the interference doesn't last long, it's still somewhat useful.

Qi Shi'an summoned the talisman bone, and the runes flashed, turning into a radiant light. The endless runes impacted the great formation, causing it to tremble and become unstable, and a crucial part of it was forcibly broken open.

The three acted swiftly, launching a fierce attack on the opening. The sky was filled with countless magical techniques and runes that flashed across the heavens.

In the end, the three of them fought their way out, covered in blood and with minor injuries.

"Who ambushed us?" the nine-headed lion roared.

Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao, holding their magical artifacts, stared intently into the distance, where a whooshing sound came from, indicating that five rune-based killing arrays had been activated, alarming those in the distance.

"The killing formation has been broken?!"

Ten people arrived, each one extraordinary, all young powerhouses, and their faces showed surprise.

"Nine-headed lion!"

They gasped in surprise as they saw two people and a horse emerging from the dust, their eyes widening in astonishment.

The fact that someone could subdue a nine-headed golden lion shocked them all. This was originally one of Shi Yi's goals; he wanted to come in and find a few mounts.

But at this moment, there were two unfamiliar faces on the back of the nine-headed golden lion. After a careful look, they recognized the two as the baby and the fierce child from the Realm of the Void God.

"Who are you, and why did you set up a magic array to ambush us?" Shi Hao's voice was somewhat cold.

A light drizzle fell on the ten people, causing them to emit bursts of precious light. Each of them became more powerful, and their eyes turned icy cold.

"The Rain Clan? What a small world."

Qi Shi'an recognized the identities of these ten people. Legend has it that when the Rain Clan bathes in heavy rain, their divine power will increase significantly.

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao felt a chill run down his spine, his expression turned serious, and he looked at them with icy eyes.

"Eight years ago, our clan dispatched experts to intercept Shi Ziling and his wife. Although many powerful individuals perished, they also stained the western frontier with blood and suffered severe injuries, making it difficult for them to survive."

One of them spoke, but he didn't reveal the identities of his group. He just said something inexplicable and then stared intently at Shi Hao, wanting to see his reaction.

"So they're just a bunch of wicked creatures, stealing human bones and killing humans. How dare they show their faces?"

A cold glint flashed in Qi Shi'an's eyes, a sneer appeared on his lips, and an intense killing intent emanated from his body without any attempt to conceal it.

Shi Hao remained indifferent, not uttering a single word, but simply raised the Suanni Treasure Mirror in his hand.

Upon hearing this, the group's expressions turned grim. The overwhelming killing intent was so pure that it chilled them to the bone.

Moreover, they realized that the crystal bone mirror in Shi Hao's hand was no ordinary item, but a powerful treasure.

"kill!"

Qi Shi'an took out his precious spear and charged forward first.

"Attack!" someone shouted.

Without saying much, the group acted decisively. In an instant, each of them radiated light, which then became incredibly intense, eventually producing a sound like a tsunami.

With a loud "boom," the ten people moved in unison, and wave after wave of azure waves surged in, submerging the entire mountain area.

The torrential rain from the sky was like a continuous source of energy and vitality for them.

In that instant, the ten people connected with heaven and earth, their essence as vast as the sea, their runes dense, transforming into dozens of massive waves that swept in.

"rise!"

With a low roar, the nine-headed lion produced a string of golden prayer beads that soared into the sky, dodging the dozens of waves of runes. Even a creature as powerful as it was could not withstand the impact.

"Little brother, protect yourself, leave the rest to us!"

Shi Hao spread his five fingers wide, unleashing golden lightning that stirred the entire water realm. He also fully activated the treasure mirror in his left hand.

At the same time, a black hole condensed at the tip of Qi Shi'an's spear, swallowing the surging wave. Blood-black demonic lightning surged wildly, erupting with a deafening roar.

With a deafening roar, golden and blood-black lightning pierced through the rain curtain, countless bolts of electricity danced in the water, and blazing lightning snakes darted about at high speed.

The stronger the power of water, the stronger the lightning becomes, and when the two meet, they create a vast expanse of thunderous swamp.

Qi Shi'an thrust out a spear, and the black hole rushed out rapidly, its powerful devouring force attempting to engulf all ten people.

"what!"

In an instant, four people screamed and flew through the air, sucked into the black hole and strangled, their limbs falling to the ground, blood mixed with the rain.

The other four were struck by lightning and their bodies were charred black, wisps of smoke rising from the rain, completely obliterated.

The two remaining men coughed up blood, their bodies charred black, their eyes filled with terror. They pointed trembling fingers at the other two, "You..."

"It actually contains the Thunder Clan's most powerful profound technique, and that Suanni treasure bone, which is specifically designed to counter my Rain Clan! How hateful!"

They fled in terror, hoping to escape alive and warn their people, but Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao were not about to let them go.

Qi Shi'an rushed towards one person, grabbed his head, and forcibly devoured his memories in an attempt to extract them. Another person was struck by lightning, his limbs pierced, and he was unable to move.

"what......"

The Rain Clan member whose memories were being devoured screamed incessantly, his soul suffering extreme torment, his brain churning, his expression slowly becoming blank, his mouth and eyes wide open.

The person lying on the ground trembled involuntarily upon hearing this horrific scream.

"Tch, useless trash!"

Qi Shi'an sneered, tossing aside the dead Rain Clan member in his hand and grabbing another Rain Clan member from the ground.

"No, please, no..."

The boy wept bitterly, begging to be spared, but Qi Shi'an showed no mercy.

The screams rang out again, and soon another corpse lay on the ground with its eyes rolled back and saliva dripping from its mouth.

"Alas, it's all useless information. It died before I could explore it further."
