The Immortal Emperor Returns-Chapter 542 - A Carrot

Chu Xun ranked first.

It wasn’t long before Zu Si had caught up with him and ranked second.

Zu Si killed six Green Wolves at the Immortal Level and obtained six Heavy Prison Tokens.

“That bastard is so competitive,” Ge Zhan muttered. He did not expect that Zu Si would meet a wolf pack as well.

Zu Si killed two wild boars at the Immortal Level and acquired two Heavy Prison Tokens.

On the ranking list, Zu Si surpassed Chu Xun and ranked first.

“Brother Chu, we have to hurry up,” Ge Zhan said.

Even though he still had no idea what Heavy Prison Tokens could do, he knew that the more of them, the better.

“There’s no rush. Let’s find Brother Gao and Jingchou first.”

The Suspended Mountain was too large, but they had lost their cultivation, so they could only walk.

Chu Xun didn’t deliberately go to look for fierce beasts. He only killed them after meeting them.

The number of Zu Si’s Heavy Prison Tokens continued to increase.

“This bastard is going crazy,” Ge Zhan said sullenly.

Zu Si actually got fifteen Heavy Prison Tokens.

Chu Xun, however, only had ten.

On a hill, Zu Si killed a pangolin.

“Brother Xie, if we have enough Heavy Prison Tokens, can we really control the Suspended Mountain?” Zu Si fiddled with the Heavy Prison Token in his hand.

Xie Qingyun nodded. “That’s right. According to the records of my race, the Suspended Mountain is actually a Sacred Relic.”

“So, as long as we take control of the Suspended Mountain, we can easily kill Chu the Devil,” Zu Si murmured.

Xie Qingyun said, “Moreover, according to the ancient records of my race, there are countless treasures on the Suspended Mountain.”

“The treasures are yous, and I’ll just take Chu the Devil’s life,” Zu Si sneered.

Xie Qingyun nodded. This was what they had agreed on before. f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

“Some people are coming.” Zhang Tianyou looked at the group of people coming not far away.

“Young Master Zu, make your move and snatch their Heavy Prison Tokens,” Xie Qingyun said.

A greedy glint flashed in Zu Si’s eyes. “Can the loot be mine, too?”

Xie Qingyun nodded. “The Heavy Prison Token belongs to the person who gets it.”

Zu Si smiled. If that was the case, he was hell-bent on obtaining the Suspended Mountain.

This group of people also saw Zu Si and his partners. Their expressions changed slightly, and they wanted to avoid them.

“Since you are here, why are you in such a hurry to leave?”

As Zu Si spoke, he walked forward to block their way.

“Those who have different beliefs should not work together.” The leaders of the group were two experts at the Immortal Level.

“In that case, why did you enter the Suspended Mountain?” Zu Si sneered.

“Chu the Devil has given us permission to enter the Suspended Mountain to search for treasures. What do you intend to do?”

“Are you threatening me with him?!” Hissed Zu Si wickedly.

“Don’t go too far, you guys from alien races and the Assembly of Immortals! Now that everyone’s cultivation has been suppressed, if you really start a fight, we can fight to the death.”

“You’re right.” Zu Si nodded. “Actually, I can give up resorting to violence. Hand over your Heavy Prison Tokens, and I can let you go.”

“In your dreams...” An elder said.

“Such being the case, don’t blame me for being ruthless.” Zu Si threw himself forward like a bolt of lightning.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Their fists collided, making muffled noises.

Zu Si’s physical strength was great. The two elders weren’t his match at all.

After only a few blows, they were badly injured by Zu Si.

Zu Si looked fierce and cruel. He ruthlessly punched at the head of one of the elders.

“Young Master Zu, stop it!” Shouted Xie Qingyun.

Zu Si suddenly stopped his attack and turned around to look at Xie Qingyun in confusion.

“If you kill them, you will be sent out of the Suspended Mountain and lose the right to compete,” Xie Qingyun said.

Zu Si was shocked. He had not expected such a rule.

“Chu Xun, look,” Ge Zhan said.

Chu Xun looked up.

Zu Si succeeded in his snatch and obtained two Heavy Prison Tokens.

“Can we even get Heavy Prison Tokens this way?” Chu Xun was surprised.

“Brother Chu, why don’t we rob those from alien races and the Assembly of Immortals? If we rob Zu Si, we can get Heavy Prison Tokens much faster than just hunting ferocious beasts.”

Chu Xun’s eyes lit up as well. Since he could rob others, he would not bother hunting fierce beasts anymore.

Chu Xun and Ge Zhan searched everywhere for Zu Si and his companions.

Meanwhile, Zu Si’s group was looking for human warriors everywhere.

Not many people were from alien races and the Assembly of Immortals. Most of the adventurers were human warriors.

Zu Si had already acquired 30 Heavy Prison Tokens.

Yue Jingchou and Gao Mohan joined forces to hunt a few wild beasts.

At this moment, the two of them were chasing after a carrot.

Yes, it was a carrot that could run. It was 40 centimeters tall and had hands and feet.

Suddenly, the carrot stopped moving.

Subconsciously, Gao Mohan and Yue Jingchou stopped in their tracks as well.

The carrot babbled and looked at the two of them curiously, as if it was wondering why they were chasing after it.

“Brother Gao, have you ever seen such a strange carrot?” Yue Jingchou asked.

Gao Mohan shook his head and replied, “I suspect it’s a ginseng spirit.”

“Whatever it is, catch it first.”

But just when Yue Jingchou’s voice died away, he heard a whistle and a stone came hitting him on the head.

He yelped with pain, and a lump emerged on his forehead.

Gao Mohan was stunned.

At this point, the carrot raised its short and fat leg and kicked up a stone.

Swoosh!

The sharp sound of the stone breaking through the air was heard. The stone was coming at Gao Mohan.

Gao Mohan quickly dodged, and the stone hit the tree behind him.

The trunk of the tree, which was as thick as a bowl, was cut in half at the waist.

Yue Jingchou and Gao Mohan looked at each other, thinking, “Heavens, what a powerful blow!”

“Little carrot, I’ll catch you today and make some soup out of you,” hissed Yue Jingchou through gritted teeth as he felt the pain on his forehead.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The little carrot kicked up two stones and attacked Yue Jingchou. Then it waved its short arms and ran away quickly on its short legs.

“Chase.”

Yue Jingchou avoided the stones and chased after the carrot.

Although the carrot was small, it was fast.

No matter how hard Yue Jingchou and Gao Mohan tried, they could not catch up with it.

Suddenly, the little carrot stopped again. It turned around and blinked its bright, jet-black eyes at the two of them.

“No...” Yue Jingchou waved his hand carefully.

On a giant rock not far from them, a four-meter-long tiger was dozing off.

From a hundred meters away, they could feel the fierceness of the tiger.

Swoosh!

The little carrot kicked up a stone and smashed it on the tiger’s head. Then it hid behind a tree quickly.

The tiger felt the pain and suddenly stood up. Its sheer size could frighten people a hundred meters away.

Roar!

The tiger spied Yue Jingchou and Gao Mohan. It let loose a bestial roar in the woods, and it looked intimidating.

“Run.”

Gao Mohan bellowed and grabbed Yue Jingchou’s arm, turning to flee.

The tiger was not something that they could hunt at the moment.

The tiger covered a hundred meters with one leap, crushed rocks, and smashed ancient trees.

The two of them used all their strength and ran as fast as they could.

The fierce tiger kept chasing after them while they fled desperately.

Fortunately, this was a dense forest. Due to the ancient trees, the tiger could not immediately catch up with them.

Yue Jingchou was running with all his might when he suddenly realized that the little carrot had appeared beside him and was running with them.

“D*mn you, you little carrot!” Yue Jingchou seethed with rage. He was on the run and had no time to deal with it.

The little carrot ran so fast that it overtook them.

Swoosh!

The sound of something piercing through the air rang out, and the tiger pounced on them.

Yue Jingchou looked back and was scared out of his wits.

“Brother Gao, we’re done for.”

The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They were really screwed this time.

Unexpectedly, the tiger jumped over them, leaving a big pit on the ground. Without even looking back at them, it leaped again and ran wildly.

Unable to stop in time, the two of them fell into the big pit created by the tiger and looked at each other in dismay.

“It must be a blind tiger,” Yue Jingchou muttered.

Gao Mohan nodded in agreement. It seemed that there was something wrong with this tiger’s eyes.

“Brother Gao, do you feel the ground shaking?” Yue Jingchou asked. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

Gao Mohan instantly sensed that the ground was indeed shaking.

“It’s not an earthquake, is it?” Yue Jingchou chuckled.

Rumble!

All of a sudden, the ancient trees halfway up the mountain collapsed. Smoke and dust covered the sky and the sun, as if a great army was rushing down. The ground shook more and more violently.

Roar!

At this time, a bestial roar sounded from the peak of the mountain like a thunderclap, causing their faces to turn deathly pale and their blood to churn violently.

“D*mn it, it’s a beast tide.” Gao Mohan was so frightened that his voice changed.

Yue Jingchou saw it too. The waves of dirt rolled down from the mountain peak like tidal waves, and countless fierce beasts galloped down.

“Run!”

Gao Mohan howled. They would definitely die if they failed to avoid the beast tide.

At this instant, the little carrot’s babble rang out. When they subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice, they saw it waving to them.

When the little carrot saw the two motionless, it pointed to the ancient tree beside it.

It was an ancient tree with a diameter of more than ten meters, and its canopy was colossal and dense.

“Is it telling us to hide behind the tree?” Asked Yue Jingchou, puzzled.

“Let’s hurry there,” said Gao Mohan, dragging Yue Jingchou toward the ancient tree.

When they approached the ancient tree, they found a tree hole under it. The space inside was not big, but it was enough to accommodate them.

The two of them hid in the tree hole with the carrot.

As soon as they were done, the beast tide approached, and countless fierce beasts rushed down the mountain.

Huge rocks exploded, ancient trees were destroyed, and the earth rumbled.

Yue Jingchou and Gao Mohan were terrified. With their Internal Breath being suppressed, such a massive stampede of beasts would reduce them to minced meat if this ancient tree was destroyed.

Luckily, this ancient tree was sturdy and unmoving.

“What’s going on?” Yue Jingchou stared at the little carrot and asked suspiciously, “You’re not the one behind this, are you?”

The little carrot understood him. It shook its head to say no and tried its best to stretch out its short arms to make a gesture.

“What do you mean?” Asked Yue Jingchou, confused.

Gao Mohan muttered after some thought, “You mean there’s a nightmarish beast on the mountain?”

The little carrot nodded.

The duo exchanged a look, recalling the terrifying roar from earlier. It looked like some horrific creature had appeared.

“We have to find my Second Uncle quickly or we’ll never be at ease,” said Yue Jingchou.

Gao Mohan nodded in agreement.

The beast tide alarmed everyone on the Suspended Mountain.

“How could there be such a sudden beast tide?”

Ge Zhan’s eyes were wide open. He couldn’t help but click his tongue as he gazed at the massive beast tide.

“The roar just now was definitely made by a bloodcurdling creature. Someone alarmed it,” Chu Xun said.

“Brother Chu, should we go take a look?” Ge Zhan asked.

Chu Xun nodded. The many fierce beasts running down the mountain were equivalent to countless Heavy Prison Tokens. Of course, he had to have a look.

Not only Chu Xun and Ge Zhan, but almost everyone was rushing toward the direction of the beast tide.

The stampede went on for half an hour before it finally stopped. Yue Jingchou heaved a sigh of relief, wiping the cold sweat off his forehead.

“We’re finally safe.”

Unexpectedly, the little carrot was babbling and gesturing.

This time, Yue Jingchou and Gao Mohan understood what it meant.

It was telling them to leave as soon as possible because the nightmarish creature on the mountain was coming down.
