With Zhao Mu's speed, it would take him less than ten minutes to cover the distance of two hundred miles.

The moment he saw the coastline, Zhao Mu heaved a sigh of relief.

For some reason, he felt very uncomfortable with the Sea of Corrosion. It was not because of the strong toxicity of the sea, but because of the aura it emitted. It made Zhao Mu feel nauseous.

Zhao Mu guessed that it might have something to do with his Sacred Crimson Sun Constitution.

Zhao Mu's Yang Qi was too strong, and the Sea of Corrosion was a place of extreme Yin. It was the perfect counter to his constitution.

Moreover, although there were many Demonic Beasts in the Sea of Corrosion, most of them were Earth-level Demonic Beasts and were not worth hunting.

This place was more like a beginner's area, suitable for those Devil Sect disciples who were not strong enough to hunt.

If Zhao Mu wanted to earn a lot of points in these five days, he would have to go deeper inland and hunt for Earth-level or even Heaven-level Demonic Beasts.

After landing, Zhao Mu roughly checked the road ahead.

There was a dense forest on his left. It was gloomy, and there were howls coming from time to time.

There was a huge canyon in front of him. In the middle of the canyon was a desert, and many Demonic Beasts could be seen moving around in the desert.

There were endless mountains on his right. These mountains were not tall, and they were bare without any vegetation. However, there were one or several caves on each mountain. It was very likely that these were the nests of Demonic Beasts.

Zhao Mu also saw from afar that a few demon cultivators were walking together toward one of the nests of Demonic Beasts. It seemed that they wanted to catch all the Demonic Beasts in the nest in one fell swoop.

Logically speaking, there should be the most Demonic Beasts in the mountains. However, the other cultivators also knew this. The resources of the Demonic Beasts would be divided among the cultivators. Zhao Mu acted alone and could not surround the entire nest of Demonic Beasts. Obviously, it was not suitable for him to go there.

In the end, Zhao Mu chose the canyon in front of him as his target.

The canyon was narrow, but it was clear from the front to the back. Once he fought with Demonic Beasts, the Demonic Beasts from both the front and back would be attracted, forming a pincer attack.

Cultivators who were not strong enough would be at a great disadvantage if they rashly entered the canyon.

However, because of this, there should not be many cultivators who chose to enter the canyon to hunt.

It was a suitable place for Zhao Mu to hunt.

He rode on his sword and headed straight for the canyon. He did not conceal his aura at all, attracting the attention of the surrounding Demonic Beasts.

Demonic beasts were very aggressive. When they saw someone, they immediately rushed over.

However, Zhao Mu was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he continued to fly forward for a distance.

When he turned around, there was already a black mass of Demonic Beasts behind him. There were more than three hundred of them, and most of them were at the Mystic Rank. There were also two Earth Rank beasts, which added up to more than five hundred points.

"It's about time to close the net."

Zhao Mu returned like a swallow, arriving at the center of the Magical Beast army. Purple electric arcs flickered continuously, and a wave of Purple Electric Entanglement paralyzed and bound the three hundred Magical Beasts.

The Demonic Beasts that were entangled by the purple lightning were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered for Zhao Mu. He activated his flying sword and smashed the heads of the Demonic Beasts one by one. The battle was over in less than five minutes, earning him more than 530 hunting points.

At the same time, a new line of information appeared on the disciple nameplate.

He had entered the top 100.

"If I had not been delayed for a while in the Sea of Corrosion, I would have killed my way into the top 10 by now."

Zhao Mu did not rest and continued to ride on his sword forward.

Luring the beasts, gathering the beasts, and controlling the area.

The entire process could be described as smooth as flowing water.

It was a pity that there were no additional rewards other than points from killing the Demonic Beasts.

Otherwise, it would have been even more satisfying to see a ground full of equipment and materials.

Zhao Mu had a great time killing monsters, and several hours passed before he knew it.

After wiping out another wave of Demonic Beasts, Zhao Mu successfully entered the top ten of the rankings.

At this time, Zhao Mu's points had reached more than 16,000.

"The top ten are all monsters. My efficiency in hunting monsters is already crazy enough. How did they get so many points?"

It could only be said that the disciples of the Demon Sect were indeed full of hidden talents.

"Buzz!"

Just as Zhao Mu was resting, he heard an ear-piercing sword hum from afar.

He immediately flew out of the canyon and looked toward the sky. He saw a golden sword mark left in the sky.

"What a terrifying sword intent!"

Zhao Mu was shocked.

The aura emitted by this sword was very familiar.

It was very similar to the sword intent released by Niu Ao that day, but it was sharper.

This sword was definitely from Long Tianxiang.

He was not far away.

Zhao Mu immediately became alert.

Although the other party might not dare to make a move in the Magical Beast Secret Realm, he still had to be careful.

"Master!"

Suddenly, Zhao Mu heard an extremely coquettish voice coming from afar.

Before he turned around, Zhao Mu knew that his little heifer was here.

He turned around and saw that it was indeed Niu Yulan.

They had not seen each other for a long time. He did not expect to meet here.

"How did you know I was here?"

Niu Yulan ran to Zhao Mu, panting, and explained, "I saw Senior Brother Long's sword aura just now, so I came to check on the situation. I didn't expect to meet Master halfway. This must be fate given to us by the heavens!"

"You know Long Tianxiang?" Zhao Mu asked curiously.

"I'm cultivating under the Grand Elder's Hanging Sword Mountain. I'm an inner disciple of Hanging Sword Mountain. I've seen Senior Brother Long a few times before. Although I'm not familiar with him, I think we're from the same sect. Maybe he can guide me. But now that I've met Master, I don't have to look for Senior Brother Long anymore."

The little heifer probably did not know about the conflict between Zhao Mu and Long Tianxiang. She did not avoid mentioning Long Tianxiang in front of him.

Zhao Mu didn't mind. He smiled and said, "That's good too. It's quite boring for me to hunt alone. Come and chat with me to relieve my boredom."

Niu Yulan grinned like a silly big sister and said, "Master, don't underestimate me. After all, I am a completion level-five cultivator. Dealing with a few demonic beasts is a piece of cake for me. I can help you hunt demonic beasts and all the points will belong to you."

"You can do that?

Is this cheating? "

Niu Yulan said, "Isn't it the same for everyone? After all, if you don't enter the top 100 of the rankings, you won't get any extra rewards. The disciples under the various elders will gather together with the personal disciples and give the points obtained from hunting Magical Beasts to the personal disciples to maintain the ranking of the personal disciples and fight for the top 10 spots."

"Master, you'll be at a disadvantage if you fight alone. Let me see your ranking on the scoreboard."

As she spoke, Niu Yulan took out her disciple nameplate and glanced at it. The result was that she was dumbfounded.

"This, this, this … Master, you're so amazing. You killed your way into the top 10 of the scoreboard alone and have 16,000 points. I've also killed a lot of demonic beasts. How come I've only accumulated 5,000 points?"

As she spoke, Niu Yulan gently shook her disciple nameplate. Immediately after, Zhao Mu's disciple nameplate vibrated. Her 5,000 points all landed in Zhao Mu's hands. This caused his ranking on the scoreboard to rise to ninth place.
