Divine Beast Adventures Chapter 424 - Brilliant Use For the Spiritual Honey. Desert

Edited by Aelryinth

Perhaps finding that hive full of honey had used up all of Zhang Che’s luck.

For the rest of the day, Zhang Che didn’t find any other good spiritual herbs. As such, the promise he made to the frisky monkey naturally went unrealized.

“Hey, it’s not that daddy didn’t let you eat, but that you didn’t find any. You can’t blame me for that.”

——-

Night fell. Zhang Che found a mountain and had the Purple Crystal Tortoise dug out a cave, resting there for the night.

The man and monkey sat in front of a pile of roasted meat. Zhang Che felt a little regret.

After all, if they managed to find another high-grade spiritual herb, perhaps the frisky monkey would rank up in level. Then, the range of his spiritual sense would surely expand a little more.

“Baba, honey, honey…”, the frisky monkey suddenly stammered while looking at the roasted meat before him.

Ever since he got a taste of that spiritual honey, the frisky monkey seemed to have temporarily forgotten the matter of the spiritual herbs. Saliva started drooling from the corners of his mouth at the mention of the spiritual honey.

“You glutton!” Zhang Che rolled his eyes back. This fellow was indeed worthy of being called a Gluttony Monkey. He would always want to eat whatever good stuff they came across.

-Hmm? Right, I wonder how it will taste if I spread a layer of honey on the roasted meat?- Zhang Che was suddenly struck with the idea. He immediately scooped out a ladle of honey and applied a layer of it on the soon-to-be-cooked meat.

Immediately, a thick scent spread out, filling the whole cave.

Another string of saliva flowed out from the corners of the frisky monkey’s mouth, but it was sucked back in with a loud slurp.

Even Zhang Che felt himself salivating.

After applying the honey, not only was the roasted meat even more fragrant, its color changed to golden-yellow, looking like a piece of art.

When the roasted meat was finally cooked, Zhang Che and the frisky monkey could no longer wait and immediately dug in, wolfing down the meat like the incarnations of hungry ghosts.

Zhang Che’s eyes lit up when the roasted meat entered his stomach.

“Unexpectedly, not only does the roasted meat with honey taste especially delicious, there is also a burst of pure energy in my stomach. Such good stuff!”

Zhang Che needed to eat at least a few dozen kilograms of roasted to satisfy himself. Now, he would feel full after eating only half that amount.

“Not bad, not bad. With that, I can eat a lot less.”

A surprised smile crossed Zhang Che’s face. Actually, eating that much every meal used up a lot of time, and he had to prepare large amounts of food in his spatial storage. Those were all troublesome matters.

Now, he only had to apply a thin layer of spiritual honey, and a miraculous reaction would occur between the roasted meat and honey, greatly reducing Zhang Che’s appet.i.te. It was definitely good news.

Not only did Zhang Che eat a lot less, even the frisky monkey only ate a few dozen kilograms before he stopped, much sooner than other times.

In the end, a few large pieces of roasted meat were left skewered on the ferocious beast’s bone spikes, continuing to emit a tempting fragrance.

“Hah, we’ll leave it for breakfast tomorrow, then!”

As Zhang Che waved his hand, the Purple Crystal Tortoise at the side drew the roasted meat into its spatial storage.

Admittedly, the Purple Crystal Tortoise’s unique dimension was truly a good place. No matter how long the roasted meat was kept in there, it would still be at the same temperature when he took it out again. It was simply a first-cla.s.s thermal box!

The next morning, Zhang Che and the frisky monkey continued exploring deeper into the beast world after eating their breakfast. This time, Zhang Che wasn’t planning on returning immediately.

First, he had yet to find a high-grade spiritual herb capable of levelling up the frisky monkey. Second, Zhang Che wanted to find another mid-tier epic-quality exotic beast or two to increase his combat strength.

Under such circ.u.mstances, naturally he wouldn’t leave this area just like that.

Zhang Che summoned the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, then jumped up on the dragon’s back along with the frisky monkey. They decided on a direction and sped off.

The further they went, the more Zhang Che felt like the number of exotic beasts in the area was getting increasingly scarce.

“Did I enter the territory of a powerful exotic beast?” Zhang Che narrowed his eyes slightly.

Of course he’d be happy to see such a situation. It’d be best if he encountered a mid-tier epic-quality exotic beast. That way, he’d be able to achieve one of his two objectives.

Of course, even if he accidentally barged into the territory of an overwhelmingly powerful exotic beast, Zhang Che wasn’t afraid.

He could transform into a weak exotic beast any time he wanted; he didn’t have to worry about drawing the attention of those terrifying exotic beasts.

Why would a fierce tiger care about an ant that came into its territory?

Of course, to prevent any unwanted accidents, Zhang Che ordered the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to slow down. That way, they could stop immediately even if they came into the territory of a powerful exotic beast and he would have time to transform and hide himself.

The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon flew about a dozen kilometers further. There weren’t any more decently powerful exotic beasts to be found in their surroundings. Even if any silhouettes appeared, they belonged to small low-tier exotic beasts, hiding in the mountain forests. They were nothing out of the ordinary.

Zhang Che grew excited. Whether he could obtain a mid-tier epic-quality exotic beast depended on what showed up next!

However, when the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon flew over another spread of mountains, Zhang Che’s expression suddenly froze.

“d.a.m.n, is this real? I was happy for nothing!”

Looking into the distance where the horizons met, it was actually a barren desert!

The desert spread without end, covering everything in his sight, completely blocking Zhang Che’s way forward.

It was only now that he realized it wasn’t that there was a powerful exotic beast ahead. Instead, the topography had suddenly changed. There wouldn’t be exotic beasts resting where two completely different terrains met.

But, this was too odd…

The lands under him were still that of a rich jungle, but the area not far ahead directly became that of a barren desert, with no transition area.

Something must be off when there was an anomaly.

Zhang Che immediately ordered the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to stop, no longer continuing forward.

“But, there shouldn’t be any powerful exotic beasts where the lands intersect with the desert. No matter which direction I change to, it won’t be easy to find a mid-tier epic-quality exotic beast.”

Zhang Che really wanted to turn around and leave, but he was already deep into this area. If he turned back just like that, he’d waste a lot of time.

His gaze shone for a long while. In the end, Zhang Che grit his teeth and directed the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to continue flying into the desert ahead. Since he was already here, he might as well go take a look!

Perhaps there would be the mid-tier epic-quality exotic beasts he was looking for in this extreme terrain…

As he entered the desert, Zhang Che felt a wave of heat suddenly sweeping over him.

“Strange. It’s like the two terrains were forcibly pieced together, with not one bit of transition.” Zhang Che knitted his brow slightly. He didn’t retreat and continued flying deeper…
