"If you have the chance, you can ask that little girl, Dongfang Jinghong."

"Ask her, does she know where it is?"

Seeing Bai Ze's mysterious expression, Li Youan was very puzzled.

"Can't the riddle teller just die?!"

Bai Ze was amused by Li Youan's words and laughed while lying on the table.

"What I mean is, the Dongfang family must have information about this."

Although Li Youan heard Bai Ze's explanation, he still felt that this was not what Bai Ze had originally intended to say.

Before Li Youan could ask a question, Bai Ze continued.

"Moreover, these innate spirits have a very small chance of being born only in extremely extreme environments. For example, innate wind spirits only exist in places with strong winds; while innate fire spirits are only born in underground lava or where heavenly fire falls."

After a pause, Bai Ze sat on the coffee table. Although his hooves were a little uncomfortable, he still took a sip of water while holding his cup.

"I remember there is a Wind and Thunder Valley in the Forest of Ten Thousand Demons, where strong winds howl all year round and it is constantly surrounded by thunderstorms."

Bai Ze loosened his cup and looked at Li Youan with utmost seriousness.

"There's a good chance there are innate wind and lightning spirits there, but with your current strength, going to search for them is no different from courting death. Those gales and lightning could tear you apart in an instant, leaving not even ashes."

Li Youan rubbed the surface of the cup with his right thumb as Bai Ze introduced some places where innate spirits might exist—the Northern Cold Abyss, the Southern Volcano, the Western Golden Land… Each place sounded extremely dangerous.

Li Youan sighed inwardly, "It seems I still need to get some information from Dongfang Jinghong."

"Oh, right."

Bai Ze seemed to remember something and looked at Li Youan with a serious expression.

"If these innate spirits have already recognized a master, directly seizing them is useless. If the master is killed, the innate spirits will also dissipate and return to the world."

"Therefore, you can only seek out those unclaimed innate spirits and gain recognition before others."

Hearing about such a complicated process, Li Youan felt overwhelmed.

"Fine, I originally intended to rob the rich to help the poor."

"What kind of rich are you robbing, and what kind of poor are you helping? You're robbing yourself, aren't you?"

Bai Ze found Li Youan's somewhat arrogant demeanor rather amusing.

"Even ignoring everything else, just look at the spirit stones and storage rings your master gave you. Among your peers, few can compare."

This judgment was made by Bai Ze after observing Li Youan's teammates.

Previously at the front-line base, Li Youan had many peers to meet, but they came from all walks of life and had different backgrounds, so there wasn't much to refer to.

However, after arriving at the outpost, through contact with other team members, Bai Ze discovered that Li Youan's magical weapons and resource reserves were quite abundant.

Hearing Bai Ze say that, Li Youan felt a little embarrassed. "My master has indeed been very good to me."

"So, unless you find the right one, don't always think about taking shortcuts."

Bai Ze jumped down from the coffee table, walked a few steps to the door, pried open the door with its hoof, and then opened it.

"Get through tomorrow first, then we'll talk about other things. We're heading back to the outpost soon, so get some rest."

Li Youan nodded, stood up from the sofa, stretched, and walked to the bedside.

"I understand. Don't wander off."

"Okay, okay, I've been sleeping for too long. I'm going to stretch my body. You should rest too."

After saying that, Bai Ze's small body squeezed through the crack in the door a few steps and disappeared into the corridor.

Li Youan shook his head as he looked at the closed door, then lay down on the bed. He wasn't sleepy at all; he stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, replaying the battles of the past few days in his mind, trying to figure out what he could improve.

At the same time, at the Eagle Demon's lair.

"Monkey, calm down and listen to me. We need to be fully prepared. We haven't even found where they are yet, so where can you go if you set off?"

Yingxiang looked at Hou Er sitting opposite him and spoke up to stop him.

"My brother died right in front of me!" Monkey Two's voice was filled with rage.

"I watched it get surrounded and attacked by that group of humans, and it eventually exploded and died. Now you're telling me to calm down?"

As he spoke, Monkey Two slammed his fists down heavily on the stone table in front of him. The stone table shattered instantly from the impact, sending shards of stone flying everywhere.

Ying Xiang frowned, somewhat angry, but he held back. With a casual wave of his hand, demonic energy surged out, fixing the scattered pebbles in mid-air, then gathering them into a pile and throwing them out of the cave entrance.

"Don't forget how your brother died. If you don't change your temper, your older brother will have a lot of trouble in the future."

Upon hearing the words "Big Brother," the hatred in Hou Er's eyes did not diminish in the slightest, nor did his anger subside.

As Ying Xiang spoke, he suddenly noticed a key point, and his already small golden eagle eyes narrowed.

"We were just talking about your older brother. This is such an important matter, why are you coming to me instead of your brother? Does your brother not know about this?"

Seeing Monkey Two's guilty look and thinking about his relationship with Monkey Big, Eagle Soar realized what was going on.

"Luckily, your leader is your eldest brother." Eagle Soar said with a sigh, his voice full of helplessness, "It's only because we have a good relationship with the monkey tribe. Otherwise, who knows how long your monkey troop could have survived."

It's always like this.

Monkey Two has heard countless similar statements since he was a child.

He was always overshadowed by his older brother, who always said that Monkey was the boss, and that Monkey was much more steady, smarter, and more talented.

Monkey Two will always be the epitome of recklessness, stupidity, and impulsiveness, and will always need his older brother to clean up his messes.

"Just tell me if you're going or not." Monkey Two suddenly stood up and smashed the already shattered stone table in front of him into dust with one punch.

"If you can't do it, let's break up, and I'll find someone else."

Monkey Two glared angrily at Eagle Soaring, as if he would leave immediately if he said "no".

Yingxiang looked at the completely shattered stone table, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

"Look at your temper. I didn't say I wasn't going. We need to talk this over properly. If you keep acting impulsively, you'll go down and find Monkey Three."

Eagle Soared and flashed, walking a few steps to Monkey Two, who was more than a dozen steps away. He placed his hand on Monkey Two's shoulder, and a huge burst of demonic energy erupted from Eagle Soar's body, forcibly pressing Monkey Two back into the chair.

Monkey Two struggled a few times, but finding he couldn't break free, he could only sit down angrily.

Seeing that Monkey Two had stopped struggling, Eagle Soar withdrew his hand, walked to the center of the cave, and casually waved his hand. Dense demonic energy condensed in the air into a semi-transparent map of the Myriad Demon Forest.

This map marks the most basic mountains, rivers, lakes, and the boundaries of some demon clan territories, and even the locations of human outposts.

"The two of us, plus some lesser demons, should have no problem dealing with that squad," Eagle said while looking at the map.

"Why don't you take a few more capable men with you?"

Monkey Two was somewhat puzzled upon hearing Eagle Soar's words.

"Just the two of us?"

Upon hearing Monkey Two's words, Eagle Soar immediately turned and stared intently at it, his eyes filled with impatience.

"Are you stupid? I took all the True Spirit Realm cultivators out with me. Am I supposed to hand over this enormous eagle's nest to my enemies?"

Eagle Soar finally couldn't hold back any longer and started spraying Monkey Two.

"Although war between our demon race and the human race is imminent, there are no gentleman's agreements among us demons."

"That den of wolf demons to the east and that group of snake monsters to the north have been keeping an eye on me; they're my old nemesis."
