Divine Martial Saint

Although Shi Hao guessed that the person at the bottom of the cave was a Snake-type Goblin Beast, he had not truly seen it yet, so he was not entirely sure.

However, this did not affect him going into the cave to investigate. No matter what was at the bottom of the cave, it would at least be a third level demon beast.

Therefore, when Shi Hao felt that it was a third level demon beast, and had completely left the cave and reached the ground, he stood up and looked around the cave for the path that led to the bottom.

At this time, Shi Hao paid attention to the soil in the cave and discovered that many parts of the cave had been renovated. Some of the the soil was even soft, but there was no trade at all.

Shi Hao who had noticed all of this felt that the bottom of the hole was just a Serpentine. After all, in his knowledge, only snake shaped beasts did not have long legs and would not leave footprints.

Although the Serpentine had already left the cave, Shi Hao still searched very carefully. After all, he didn't know what was going on at the bottom of the cave, so who knew if there were any other beasts down there?

If a snake was like a human, living together with only one male snake, it was very likely that he would suffer.

Although Shi Hao had already recovered a portion of his strength, it could only be used to escape. If it was used in battle, he would not be a match for the third level demon beast at all.

Even if there were no more demon snakes at the bottom of the cave, demon beasts were generally sensitive to everything around them. Moreover, this snake-shaped demon beast seemed to be protecting something at the bottom of the cave.

As for why the Serpentine did not notice his question when they went back to the cave previously, Shi Hao could not figure out the reason either.

No matter what, it was not a bad thing to be cautious at this time. At least he could not let himself fall into the same predicament as when he first saw the monster.

Just as Shi Hao was exploring the underground tunnel, the battle on the ground had already started. Rumbling sounds came from the tunnel all the way to the ground and even Shi Hao who was a few hundred meters deep could feel the ground trembling.

The commotion caused by the third level demon beast was huge, it was just two beasts fighting, yet it was able to reach such a far distance.

Due to the fact that the soil beneath the ground was relatively soft and the sounds of the battle between the two demon beasts were quite loud, Shi Hao had almost fallen down several times on the path that led underground.

However, after Shi Hao walked forward for more than ten minutes, he finally felt a trace of light in front of him. When he continued to walk forward, he discovered a spacious area.

To prevent himself from appearing too suddenly, and to disturb the other life forms resting at the bottom of the cave, and in order to prevent himself from making any noise, Shi Hao laid on his stomach on the ground, and slowly moved forward through a hole.

The current Shi Hao was already very close to that empty place, it was just that he was still unable to clearly see the situation in front of him.

Shi Hao knew that this should be the third level demon beast's den. You were the most important person for him to explore.

This was precisely the place where the Serpentine must have wanted to protect, so this place could very well be extremely dangerous.

Regarding the demon beasts of this world, Shi Hao did not have a systematic understanding of them. After all, in this world, his identity was merely the Young Patriarch of a Affiliated Cities, and he did not even have a position of his own.

Since a young age, he had never gone outside to experience all kinds of mystical things. He was also not clear about what kind of things were on this continent, so Shi Hao was completely clueless about the habits of this world's demon beasts.

For example, why the third level demon beast that he had met at the beginning continued to chase after him, until now, was still a mystery in his heart.

Usually, third level demon beast would only move within their area of influence. Even if they went out to hunt, they would move around the area of influence. It was impossible for them to chase after him like this demon beast and run more than half the forest.

What was even more impossible, was that he was actually willing to offend a demon beast that was the same level as him, just for a person like Shi Hao who had no relation at all.

For normal demon beasts, this kind of situation usually happened when someone else did something that was completely impossible for him to forgive, or when someone took away something that he protected with all his might, or when something that it had been hoarding for a long time was destroyed.

But what Shi Hao was sure of was that from the moment he was teleported to this place until now, he had never provoked that monster. On the contrary, he was chased by that monster, running around the entire mountain.

That was why Shi Hao had always felt that the beasts in this place were extremely strange. However, after thinking about it, Shi Hao suddenly thought that he might have stepped on something when he appeared.

Shi Hao tried very hard to recall how he looked like when he was teleported here. Ever since he had appeared, he had been standing at his original position, and hadn't moved at all.

Only when he heard the sound did Shi Hao look around and finally walk towards the direction of the sound.

This meant that when Shi Hao first teleported over, the third level demon beast had noticed him. This meant that right after he teleported over, the third level demon beast had walked over to the third level demon beast.

Could it be that when he was teleporting over, he destroyed something that the third level demon beast was protecting?

Thinking about it here, Shi Hao felt that it was possible. Normally, these third level demon beast would guard extremely precious things, it was very possible that they were some kind of precious medicinal ingredient, or it was very possible that they were some kind of fruit that was about to ripen.

But to speak of the fruits, Shi Hao did not even see them when he appeared, to speak of the ingredients, it was hard to say.

After all, in this forest, there were many types of rare and precious herbs. If it wasn't for the monster chasing after Shi Hao, Shi Hao had planned to gather some herbs for himself to use in the city.

Combining all these years of Shi Hao's experience, Shi Hao suddenly remembered that there was a type of medicinal herb that all the beasts dream of, and it was something he had seen before when Shi Hao first appeared.

That was the Body Transformation Grass. To a pill refining master, a medicinal herb like the Body Transformation Grass was not very precious, so Shi Hao did not pay it any attention.

Normally, a demonic beast needed to reach level 7 or even level 8 to take human form. However, if a demonic beast was able to swallow the grass when it advanced to level 5, it could immediately take human form.

And it was very likely that the demonic beast chasing Shi Hao had coincidentally discovered this transformed plant, which was why it had been guarding the area all this time.

Although it was just a third level demon beast, something that could only be encountered by luck but not sought after, as long as he met it, he would definitely not give up.

Even if he failed to advance to level 5 after a thousand years, he would continue to stay there to guard it.

However, Shi Hao appeared out of thin air and stepped on the Manifestation Grass, causing it to instantly wither.

So that's how it is. If you didn't think about it, Shi Hao really thought the beasts here were crazy, and their eyes only contained their prey.

After thinking about why that Goblin Beast kept chasing after him, Shi Hao actually felt more at ease. After all, this meant that not every Goblin Beast would be envious of him and chase after him crazily.

This meant that when he walked in the forest in the future, once he felt the aura of a powerful demon beast, he only needed to avoid it.

Thinking about it till here, Shi Hao immediately relaxed, and focused all of his attention on the scene in front of him, paying close attention to the situation in front of him.

As Shi Hao crawled forward, although the passage he was in did not increase in size, the scope of his vision grew wider and wider. This meant that he was getting closer and closer to the third level demon beast's nest.

At this moment, he could already see the pool in front of him. The water in the pool was very calm, not a single ripple could be seen, and there was nothing in the water.

Shi Hao was a little disappointed. This trip might have been wasted, maybe when the Serpentine went out, it had already brought his most precious thing out, or perhaps it had moved it to a safe place.

However, Shi Hao was not disappointed. After all, he had not reached this place yet, so he was still unable to clearly see the situation inside.

Even if he went on a wasted trip, Shi Hao still planned to head inside to investigate. After all, things like this that could illuminate the bottom of the cave were rare outside.

Therefore, Shi Hao felt that if he did not gain anything in the end, it would be good to be able to bring out a few of these glowing stones.

Shi Hao continued to move forward, and at this time, his head had already reached out of the cave entrance, allowing him to clearly observe the entire situation at the bottom of the cave.

This was a very large, spacious cave. The area was roughly two hundred square meters. Around the walls of the cave, there was a bustling crowd of people, inlaid with glowing stones.

These glowing stones reflected light from the pool in the middle of the cave. Once again, they shone on the walls of the cave.

However, Shi Hao did not come here to observe whether this place looked good or not. His goal was to find a treasure, so Shi Hao's attention was not here.

After Shi Hao's attention wandered around the entire cave's bottom, it finally landed on a few black round stones at the side.

Rather than calling this a rock, it would be better to call this a black egg. After all, Shi Hao had never seen such a smooth, oval shaped rock before.

There was nothing good in the entire cave. Logically, the reason the third level demon beast went out was to face the battle, he could not possibly bring out his most precious thing.

Normally, demon beasts would place their most precious items in their nest. This snake-shaped demon beast was no exception.

But in the Serpentine's nest, Shi Hao did not discover anything else. The thing that was most likely to make this beast precious were those few black stone eggs.

"Could this be a Level Three Serpentine's egg?"
