Yes, I became a god just by exercising.

Chapter 127 Hunting! Demigod-level Supernatural Creature!
"Hey, Xia Fa, you'll be following me from now on, you hear me?"

Auf crossed her arms and walked barefoot to Xiafa's side. Although she wanted to help, she still had an arrogant look on her face and spoke in a commanding tone.

Xia Fa, who had been pondering, instinctively looked around upon hearing this. Standing at 1.8 meters tall, he couldn't spot the 1.5-meter-tall Ao Fu and muttered in confusion:

"That's strange, who's talking..."

But as soon as he said it, he regretted it, because he suddenly remembered something.

"You! You! You! Ahhh!"

Oute screamed in anger, stretched out her little hand, and pressed it into the air.

Bang-!
As the smoke dissipated, the giant slime appeared, and Off's petite figure was already riding on it.

"You can see me now, right? I was the one talking to you just now, huh!"

Xia Fa turned his head and saw her fair little feet dangling in front of him. The skin on her feet was delicate and smooth, her toenails were as lustrous as porcelain, and her arches were perfectly curved. They were like works of art, making one want to hold them in one's arms and play with them.

He pinched his nose and took two steps back:

"I know, I didn't recognize it at first."

When Offe saw him pinching his nose, she almost went crazy:

"What are you doing? My feet don't smell. If you don't believe me... come and smell them!"

Xia Fa took another step back, but released his grip on his nose and laughed:
"Let's skip it. I trust you. If you say it doesn't smell, then it doesn't smell."

"Humph~"

Auf raised her chin slightly:
"That's more like it. Let's go then."

She was far too naive to notice the trap in Xia Fa's words.

Xia Fa asked in confusion:
"where to?"

Off said in a very natural tone:
"Mist God Hunting Grounds, I promised my father I'd take good care of you this time. You'll follow behind me, and we'll split the spoils I catch!"

Xia Fa was slightly taken aback, but then he couldn't help but chuckle to himself. He hadn't expected that this duke's daughter, despite her arrogance, was actually quite a nice person.

But of course he couldn't act with Auf. He planned to find a secluded place, activate his Silver Throne state, and train thoroughly, especially by utilizing the various secret abilities of the Silver Throne to greatly improve his comprehension progress.

By the way, hunt some whale-level supernatural creatures to make some money.

In addition, one must not be disturbed when divining about a young Mistscale Dragon.

Therefore, Xia Fa spoke quite seriously:

"Um...no need, but thank you for your kindness."

"What, you're not scared, are you? Well, you're only a mere Insect-level creature after all. Why don't you come and stay inside my Traveling Slime? Don't worry, it's absolutely safe."

As she spoke, Ofl was about to command the giant slime she was riding to swallow Shafa whole.

Seeing the dreamlike slime stirring restlessly, Shafa quickly raised his hand to block it in front of him:
"No, no need. I'll just stay in the outermost area of ​​the Mist God Hunting Grounds. There shouldn't be any danger."

Ao Fu stared at him intently with her seaweed-colored eyes for a long while before letting out a sigh of deep emotion:
"I understand, you must be shy, after all, you're facing a beauty like me. Fine, I'll give you a few days to adjust, but I'll be leaving in a few days."

Xiafa: ...

Seriously, can you stop being so narcissistic?
Besides, even if we're really talking about it, you should be considered a pretty girl, not a great beauty with your height!
However, Xia Fa didn't dare to complain this time, mainly because she found Ao Fu to be quite nice and didn't want to upset her again.

As Auf shook her head and sighed about the trouble her beauty had brought her, she directed the giant slime to turn around and hop away towards the Mist God's Hunting Grounds.

In the huge hall, Xia Fa was suddenly left alone.

"This slime is a bit strange. Could it be a traveling slime, which is extremely rare even among the Mystic Spirits?"

Both "Secret Texts and Divination" and "The Mystical Exploration Records of the Fog People" devote considerable space to introducing the spirits in the Celestial Spirit Realm.

Therefore, after only a slight examination, Xia Fa recognized this strange traveling slime with its dreamlike colors and the appearance of twinkling lights inside.

The Traveling Slime, being an extremely rare and unusual Mystic, not only possesses many strange abilities but also boasts considerable combat prowess.

Those extraordinary individuals who manage to capture it are truly lucky.

Come to think of it, from the moment Off jumped off the traveling slime to duel with Shafa, to when she entered the hall with the others, no one present noticed when the traveling slime disappeared.

Only now, when she summoned the traveling slime back from the Protoss Realm, did Shafa suddenly realize that the traveling slime had actually disappeared before.

This is the Mystic Spirit, which is born with the ability to make people ignore its existence and actions. Sometimes, this ability can be surprisingly effective in battle and in order to save one's life.

After calming himself down and briefly planning his hunting strategy, Xia Fa also started walking towards the entrance of the Mist God Hunting Grounds.

The Mist God Hunting Grounds, covering a full ten million acres, are enclosed by a continuous fence that stretches as far as the eye can see. This fence was brought with it when the Mist God Hunting Grounds arrived in the Kingdom of Augu. Outside the fence are iron stakes engraved with secret runes.

Just as they reached the entrance to the Mist God Hunting Grounds fence, the runes on the iron stakes suddenly lit up, and an invisible barrier seemed to appear for a moment, creating an extremely powerful resistance to prevent Xia Fa from entering.

Xia Fa already had the hunting license in his hand. He shook the platinum license, and instantly the invisible resistance disappeared, making the path ahead clear.

Xia Fa nodded secretly, pondering the mystical principles behind it, and stepped inside.

Then, in this boundless jungle, he witnessed a chaotic and dazzlingly intense battle.

Daponz crouched at the foot of a towering ancient tree. In front of him, gears, transmission belts, series circuits, cryptic inscription plates, magical metal blocks, and other mechanical components appeared one after another, instantly forming a magical cannon with a barrel five meters long.

On the magic cannon, dazzling blue and white light was lighting up segment by segment.

boom--!
A magic laser cannon, as thick as a water bucket, suddenly blasted out!

In the distance, there was a supernatural creature that looked like a crab but was a full ten meters tall. It was waving its huge pincers and baring its teeth and claws when a large hole was blasted into its sturdy armor, the edges of which were red-hot and shiny.

Before it could even let out a wail, it collapsed with a crash, and a high-level secret contract began to form on its shell.

Not far away, in another spot, Off suddenly clamped her long legs, which were perfectly proportioned to her height, and the travel slime she was riding suddenly leaped up and swallowed her in mid-air.

Hundreds of butterflies flitting about were swallowed up by its jelly-like body.

The butterflies all fainted and began to release wolf-level extraordinary essence.

Deeper into the misty depths, between two towering ancient trees, a sudden burst of violent flames erupted, illuminating the thick fog and turning it entirely red, followed by billowing lava.

Rear Admiral Poincaré descended from the sky, his fist blazing with intense flames and billowing black smoke, and slammed it into the four-armed, snow-white bear directly below him.
The bear's head was smashed to pieces, with brain matter, bone fragments, and blood flying everywhere.

Poincaré, expressionless, brushed the headless corpse of the four-armed giant bear and put it into his pouch.

Besides these three outstanding young people from the three academies, the other noble students also displayed their unique talents.
Their figures darted out from the air, the ground, and even the tree trunks, hunting supernatural creatures with a dazzling array of secret abilities. Fireballs and wind blades flew everywhere with tentacles, and many rag dolls screamed and ran around, while square-headed robots exploded all over the place.

Moreover, many extraordinary beings have also summoned the strange and mysterious spirits or secret spirits they had contracted in the Protoss Realm to fight alongside them.

At the same time, everyone moved steadily in all directions towards the Mist God Hunting Ground with great tacit understanding, and slowly dispersed.

Clearly, they were all planning to act alone.

The Mist God Hunting Grounds cover a full ten million acres, equivalent to the area of ​​a modern metropolis. With more than thirty people present, it would be easy for them to disperse.

This way, you won't have to worry about having your credit stolen or being confused when you encounter a Mist Scale Dragon cub if someone else is present.

Xia Fa didn't speak, but silently chose a direction and, trying not to attract attention, moved forward along the leaf-strewn ground, weaving among the towering trees.

As they walked, the sounds of battle and noise behind them gradually subsided, and after walking for a while, they could no longer hear them at all.

When Xia Fa looked back, he saw that the fog behind him had completely obscured the figures of the noble students.

Not only behind, but also in all directions, there was fog. Fortunately, the fog was not thick, and people could see things within a range of about twenty meters.

With a flick of his wrist, Xia Fa produced a yellow crystal with a pre-engraved secret inscription, which he had prepared on the four-wheeled carriage on his way to the Mist God Hunting Grounds.

This is the simplest divination tool; even those with basic supernatural abilities can make it themselves.

Its function is to detect whether there are people around, and it can be used multiple times, but there is a range limitation, which is about 200 meters around.

Furthermore, if the person is of too high a rank or possesses the ability to conceal themselves, they cannot be divined. As Xia Fa infused his extraordinary power into it, the yellow crystal glowed slightly before dimming, leaving only two cryptic runes within it lit up.

One of them is written in tadpole script, with the pointed and long tail pointing towards the six o'clock direction.

A character, scribbled like a child's drawing, is spinning continuously.

this means……

"There's no one around, but I might be in danger?"

Xia Fa was somewhat puzzled, because divination is based on oneself and then obtains information from the Celestial Spirit Realm.

In other words, even if the divination couldn't account for the burning sensation that surged in his heart meridian when he was in danger, it wouldn't account for the strange electric current at his tailbone.

But at the very least, it will include his insect-level rank, advanced secret contract etheric source, and overlord-level secret contract silver throne, and may even include the seal object in the shape of a horse-slaying sword.

In this situation, he could easily kill supernatural creatures of whale-level strength, but this divination yellow crystal predicted that there was danger?
"Could it be that……"

Xia Fa suddenly became alert, and the first possibility that came to mind was...

That is the demigod-level supernatural creature that Prince Justinian mentioned exists in this Mist God Hunting Ground!
Only demigod-level supernatural beings could pose a threat to him.

Seeing the surrounding fog, and how the twisted branches of the ancient trees looked like the outstretched claws of monsters, Xia Fa thought for a moment and decided to go a little further.

Perhaps, it's just that there are demigod-level supernatural beings inhabiting this area, and they haven't set their sights on us yet?
Since I accidentally stepped into its territory, the divination result naturally indicated that there was danger.

It should be noted that the information obtained from divination is not entirely accurate and must be interpreted by the diviner.

If the interpretation is correct, that's fine; but if the interpretation is wrong, you may fall into an abyss. This is also the first sentence at the beginning of "Secret Texts and Divination".

Of course, it's also possible that a heretic who has already reached the demigod level has infiltrated this Mist God Hunting Ground, which is why it foreshadows danger. However, the probability of this is too small, so we don't need to consider it for now, since the prince with the angelic level just came by.

Therefore, Xia Fa chose to boldly continue forward, walking several more kilometers.

He used the citrine to perform another divination.

This time, as the citrine shone and then dimmed, the tadpole-shaped rune's tail still pointed towards six o'clock, but the childlike doodle-like rune no longer rotated.

"There's still no one within a 200-meter radius, and I'm out of danger..."

Xia Fa breathed a sigh of relief, scanned the surroundings, and selected a towering ancient tree that was as large as a dining table.

He stepped forward, placed one palm on the rough, dark brown bark, and instantly melted a large hole, as big as a door panel, into it.

Xia Fa blew again, and the cold wind mixed with ice shards immediately cooled down the tree trunk that was about to catch fire. Then, he jumped in.

With another swipe of alchemical metal, he sealed the cave entrance. Xia Fa then took out new citrine, live iron powder, and pig iron pieces.

It must be said that the Etheric Source Secret Contract is quite useful, at least in terms of daily life and assistance, just like now.

With other secret contracts, he wouldn't be able to create a hidden, enclosed space so quickly for divination.

After quickly imprinting the secret text into the citrine, Xia Fa began to imagine all sorts of dangerous beings of extremely high status in his mind. Sure enough, he soon drew out a strange current from his spine.

This time, after fusing the living iron powder with the strange electric current, he chose to inscribe a secret text containing information about the Mist Scale Dragon's appearance, status, race, and so on.

Seeing the golden inscription seep through the cast iron sheet and merge into the citrine,
Wow——!
An endless starry sky descended, enveloping him in a deep purple, dark starry sky, as if he were not hiding in the heart of a tree, but suddenly found himself in the universe.

As for the yellow crystal, it blurred for a moment and then transformed into the shape of a mist-scaled dragon cub, leaping between tree trunks.

Xia Fa ignored the fact that he had turned into a glowing sphere again and focused all his attention on the mist-scaled dragon cub.

Slowly, it began to "spread" around it, like a drop of ink falling into water, and the divination scene around it expanded, revealing mist, land, and giant trees.

Despite being just a cub, compared to the giant tree, Xia Fa discovered that it was actually about seven meters long. It was hard to imagine how big it would grow to adulthood and what status it would reach.

As the area around the Mist Scale Dragon grew larger and larger, it was about to reveal the terrain it was in and pinpoint its exact location.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, the mist-scaled dragon trembled violently, and its seven-meter-long body began to gradually become invisible.

At the same time, strange, invisible fluctuations emanated from it.

As the waves rippled, the divination image also rippled violently, like the shimmering light of a lake about to shatter.

pat!

Before anyone could react, the divination image shattered, the surrounding cosmos rapidly reversed, and Xia Fa returned to the heart of that towering tree.

The citrine in my palm suddenly collapsed, turning into fine, translucent powder that flowed down my fingers like grains of sand.

Xia Fa was somewhat taken aback, not expecting that the way the Mist Scale Dragon cub avoided divination would be so drastic and so effective.

However, upon further reflection, he felt relieved. After all, even with the help of his father, the current Emperor, Prince Justinian, it was difficult to pinpoint the location of the Mist Scale Dragon cub.

When I used the strange electric current to perform divination, I was able to barely glimpse some of the divination images related to the ruler. In comparison, my divination abilities were about the same, but I was probably slightly better.

In this situation, it's normal for the larvae of the Mist Scale Dragon to avoid it.

Ultimately, divination as a method has many inherent limitations.

Or perhaps its own rank is too low, and it has too few exotic currents that it can mobilize.

If it were two or three strange currents, or even more... it might be completely different.

"Wait, there seems to be some residual information..."

Xia Fa thought the divination would be fruitless, but suddenly, his spiritual intuition received a vague and incomplete message from the Star Spirit Realm.

"Mist God Hunting Grounds...West...South..."

"southwest?"

Xia Fa narrowed his eyes slightly. If this speculation was true, did it mean that the Mist Scale Dragon was roughly in the southwest direction of the Mist God Hunting Grounds?

Although the southwest direction of the Mist God Hunting Grounds is still very vast and difficult to pinpoint, it at least indicates the general location, which is much better than wandering around aimlessly in this hunting grounds that is comparable to a large city.

Xia Fa was somewhat delighted and prepared to try his luck in the southwest direction of the Mist God Hunting Grounds.

After all, that's 300,000 gold pounds, plus a treasure worth 20,000 gold pounds!

Moreover, all he had to do was crush the distress candy the moment he saw the Mist Scale Dragon, summoning Prince Justinian; he didn't even need to lift a finger.

Therefore, Xia Fa is still willing to try his luck, especially since not many people are choosing to go in that direction now.

He placed one hand on the slightly damp, off-white heartwood inside the tree hole, just about to break it open.

But suddenly——

boom! ! !
A tremendous crash followed as the towering tree, which would take at least five people to encircle, was snapped in half. In the nick of time, Xia Fa ducked down, feeling a terrifying gust of wind carrying a strong stench of blood sweep over his head.

He felt fortunate; if he had reacted even a second later, he would probably have been broken in half like that giant tree.

Xia Fa stood up and looked at the distance not far ahead.

Two red lights appeared first in the mist, leaving long red lines in their wake.

That looks like... the eye of some kind of creature.

Then, a "deer" standing upright emerged from the mist.

At first glance, it looks like a deer standing up, but upon closer inspection, it is completely different.

No other elk has such a mouthful of sharp teeth, nor does any other elk have such bulging muscles all over its body. More importantly, its body is entirely cast iron in color, making it more like a steel statue than a living creature.

A hideous wound ran from its left shoulder straight down to its abdomen, burning with a holy flame, as if trying to prevent its powerful regenerative abilities from working.

It's unclear who gave it such a fatal claw strike; through the wound, you could even see its faintly beating heart and its broken, exposed ribs.

Xia Fa's pupils contracted slightly, and his vigilance suddenly rose to its peak, but at the same time, a strange sense of joy welled up inside him.

This is... a demigod-level supernatural creature!
Moreover... it was a severely injured demigod-level supernatural being!
