Live Strong in the Wilderness

Chapter 556: Sleepless and Restless

After breakfast, Xu Yi began searching for Fierce Beasts.

Since he had the Martial Technique: Shaking Mountain, Xu Yi didn’t need to pick only those that were alone.

When encountering a group, he would charge straight in.

With a flurry of punches, Xu Yi left only one with ordinary attacks, killing the others with Shaking Mountain.

Then, slowly depleting the telekinesis of the remaining one, he captured it.

By the end of the day, Xu Yi had captured four level 5 peak Fierce Beasts.

He then took them all back to the temporary camp, preparing to start the taming process.

Wanting to tame them all at once was quite difficult, after all, Xu Yi himself had not yet reached the level 5 peak, so the success rate of using Taming Skills wasn’t very high.

After returning to the camp, Xu Yi did nothing but repeatedly use Taming Skills.

Repeated failures did not dampen Xu Yi’s enthusiasm.

After all, before he started, Xu Yi already knew that level 5 peak Fierce Beasts were hard to tame.

Without a mindset of rushing for quick results, Xu Yi wasn’t anxious at all.

After a day and night, Xu Yi unexpectedly managed to tame two. This result actually made Xu Yi quite satisfied.

After a sleepless night, Xu Yi stretched lazily and moved his body.

Although there were no more Basic Gift Packages to claim, there was no way he could interrupt the routine. Otherwise, he would have to start all over again.

"System, check in."

After completing the 253rd day’s check-in, Xu Yi cooked breakfast and began practicing Body Tempering.

When breakfast was ready, Xu Yi stopped practicing Body Tempering.

After breakfast, Xu Yi continued to tame the remaining two Fierce Beasts.

By around ten at night, Xu Yi had tamed the two Fierce Beasts.

Four level 5 peak Fierce Beasts, plus the one he tamed before, Xu Yi now had five level 5 peak Fierce Beast mounts.

With this kind of armed force, it’s enough to protect a base.

After all, they only need to deal with regular level 5 Fierce Beasts, and they’re there to guard the Meteorite Crater Base, not conquer anywhere.

After taming them, Xu Yi used liquid metal to make five bracelets.

He let these five Fierce Beasts remember this scent, so they would obey the person wearing the bracelet. After all, Xu Yi wouldn’t be returning and couldn’t command these Fierce Beasts himself.

Metal also has its unique scent. Humans may not be able to smell it, but Fierce Beasts can.

And only Xu Yi had the liquid metal, so there was no worry of anyone else faking it.

Quickly, it became daylight.

After completing the 254th day’s check-in, Xu Yi, as usual, cooked, practiced Body Tempering, and ate.

Finally, Xu Yi packed up his tent and took these Fierce Beasts to find the previously tamed one.

The White-backed Giant Lizard tamed by Xu Yi was still waiting in place for him.

After taking out the metal bracelet and letting it remember the scent, Xu Yi established a Spiritual Link with it. This way, it would obey the bracelet-wearer.

Next, Xu Yi recorded a video and placed it with the metal bracelet, putting it into the Star Chart worn by Thunder.

Then, Xu Yi tore a piece of white cloth, wrote some words on it, and tied it to Thunder’s leg.

After completing these tasks, Xu Yi instructed Thunder to take the level 5 Fierce Beasts back to the Meteorite Crater Base and deliver these items to Lu Ke.

This task wasn’t difficult, as Thunder was smart enough to complete it.

So, at noon, after a hearty meal, Thunder set off on the road back to the Meteorite Crater Base.

Xu Yi entered the Fat Tree Forest and sat at the top of a tree to begin his intense training.

Next, Xu Yi’s main task was to train, continuously train.

"Old Qin, is Xu Yi not coming back?"

Looking at the punctuation marks on the Star Chart in her hand, Lu Ke actually knew in her heart that Xu Yi was not returning. But she still hoped Xu Yi would come back.

After all, it’s almost been 50 days.

If Xu Yi doesn’t return, there’s a high chance he won’t come back for the next 50 days either.

Thinking about not seeing Xu Yi for so long made Lu Ke feel very lost.

So, she especially hoped Qin Fan would say otherwise.

Qin Fan nodded and said, "He probably isn’t. Xu Yi wouldn’t leave Thunder behind and come back himself. I guess Xu Yi sent Thunder to bring back some message for us."

"Yeah, with such speed, it’s definitely Thunder. I wonder what message Xu Yi brought us this time, will it tell us to rendezvous with him?" Wang Jin looked up at the sky, with a touch of expectation in his eyes.

Not only Wang Jin was looking forward, but so were others.

After all, they hadn’t been together with Xu Yi for almost a month.

Time flew by quickly, and it was soon late at night.

After finishing her training, Lu Ke, ready to sleep, took one last look at the Star Chart.

She found that the dot was still moving.

Traveling non-stop?

If so, they should be able to return to the Meteorite Crater Base in three or four days, right?

Do Fierce Beasts have such stamina?

Actually, they do.

After all, they are different from ordinary animals now.

Not to mention traveling non-stop for three or four days, even seven or eight days, Fierce Beasts can endure it.

However, they usually wouldn’t do this without reason.

Now it’s because Thunder is eager, wanting to return to Xu Yi’s side early, so it’s choosing to do so.

Xu Yi didn’t notice, after all, once Thunder took the other Fierce Beasts away, he found a Fat Tree, sat on its top, and began training. He didn’t open his eyes until daylight the next day.

Without any disturbance from Fierce Beasts, Xu Yi seemed to merge with the surrounding environment.

The next day, Xu Yi felt the warmth of the sunlight and realized it was daylight.

"System, check in."

Having completed the 255th day’s check-in, Xu Yi leaped down from the top of the Fat Tree and began to cook breakfast.

While cooking, Xu Yi began practicing Body Tempering.

Martial techniques actually don’t have many ’moves’.

However, Xu Yi added some moves himself to make it have a form.

This was naturally for viewers to see, and for the Spirit Race to see.

After practicing several times, Xu Yi stopped to eat breakfast.

Before eating breakfast, Xu Yi glanced at the Star Chart.

Initially, Xu Yi didn’t think there was anything unusual. After all, Thunder kept moving.

But later during the meal, Xu Yi suddenly realized something was wrong and opened the map function on the Star Chart, finding that the distance seemed a bit off.

"Could it be that Thunder didn’t sleep at all last night and kept running?" Xu Yi muttered to himself, enlarging the map a little.

Xu Yi felt that at this speed and circumstance, in three days, Thunder might bring the other five Fierce Beasts back to the Meteorite Crater Base.

He didn’t suspect that Thunder had left the other Fierce Beasts behind and returned on its own.

After all, Thunder has always been able to execute his orders perfectly.

If Thunder could return early, Xu Yi’s message could be delivered sooner.

After breakfast, Xu Yi continued with his training.

The earlier he breaks through to the level 5 peak realm, the sooner he can enter the territory of level 6 Fierce Beasts.

In the future, he will no longer be able to bring underpowered individuals into more advanced territories.

You must survive in a place that matches your strength. If your strength is inadequate and you enter recklessly, without the Fierce Beasts even needing to attack, the ’Spiritual Energy’ there can kill you.

The logic is straightforward: do things that match your capability, don’t do things beyond your capacity.

Otherwise, you not only fail, but you also lose your life.
