Super Gene Hunting Ground

The next morning, a ray of sunlight shone in from a large hole in the cave’s stone wall.

This hole on the stone wall was about fifty meters above the ground.

Yang Xiao felt something pressing on him, and in his haze, he reached out, felt something was wrong, and then opened his eyes.

He didn’t know when Lan Xin had lain down in his arms, and the two were cuddled up together, sleeping.

A faint fragrance from Lan Xin wafted intermittently into his nose.

Lan Xin seemed to be sleeping soundly, with one hand around Yang Xiao’s waist, showing a sweet and peaceful smile in her sleep.

Yang Xiao looked down and thought that Lan Xin appeared as pure and holy as an elf.

Yang Xiao felt his thigh was a bit numb, so he gently shifted.

Lan Xin hummed in her sleep and hugged him even tighter with her right hand.

Yang Xiao gently pushed Lan Xin’s shoulder.

No response?

He pushed again, this time with a bit more force.

Still no response?

He pushed harder.

...

With a thud, Lan Xin fell to the ground.

Yang Xiao: ”@#￥%”

I didn’t think I used that much strength?

”Ouch!”

Lan Xin opened her eyes, saw Yang Xiao looking at her, and then realized she was lying on the ground, confused.

”What happened to me?”

”Ah, nothing, I saw you were sleeping so soundly, I was hesitating whether to wake you up.”

Yang Xiao laughed.

By then, the other junior sisters had also awoken.

Lan Xin quickly got up from the ground, muttering, ”How come I’m sleeping on the ground? I certainly wasn’t last night!”

Yang Xiao naturally would not admit that he pushed her to the ground, thinking, if I tell you it was me who pushed you down, would I get beaten to death?

”Let’s stoke the charcoal fire, eat roasted Tibetan Mastiff meat to fill up, then we can go out and hunt Tibetan Mastiffs.”

Yang Xiao stood up, stretched his limbs, and walked towards the cave entrance.

”Yang Xiao, where are you going?”

”I’m going to check out the entrance.”

”I’ll come with you.”

Lan Xin hurriedly followed, holding a Longsword while Yang Xiao also took out the Bronze Divine Sword.

The two girls on duty nodded to Lan Xin and Yang Xiao.

Lan Xin said:

”You’ve worked hard, go sleep on the bed for a while.”

”Okay, senior sister.”

Yang Xiao and Lan Xin slowly walked to the cave entrance, still about ten meters away, the Tibetan Mastiffs outside started to stir, barking fiercely, probably hearing the footsteps of Yang Xiao and her.

Tibetan Mastiffs have very keen hearing.

Since it was daytime, light from outside entered deep into the cave, allowing Yang Xiao and Lan Xin, standing about five to six meters from the cave entrance, to clearly see the situation outside.

A large circle of Tibetan Mastiffs surrounded the outside of the entrance, forming a dark mass, and there was no sight of the Tibetan Mastiff King, likely nearby.

”With so many Tibetan Mastiffs, how are we supposed to get out?”

”No big deal, I’ll punish the Tibetan Mastiffs outside to vent your anger.”

After saying that, Yang Xiao walked forward by two meters.

The group of Tibetan Mastiffs outside instantly started barking furiously, baring their teeth and claws, ready to fight.

Yang Xiao’s Divine Sense surged, and he immediately used Black Hole Swallowing.

With a loud bang, the huge head of a monster appeared in mid-air, and a huge air vortex appeared near the ground. The dozen Tibetan Mastiffs surrounding the cave entrance couldn’t dodge in time and were caught by a strong suction force, being pulled toward the direction of the vortex while the surrounding Tibetan Mastiffs scattered in panic.

”Arf, arf, arf.....”

There was a sudden chaos outside the cave, filled with incessant barking.

Yang Xiao changed his hand gestures and killed more than a dozen Tibetan Mastiffs, then tossed them down from mid-air.

After the Tibetan Mastiffs at the cave entrance were eliminated, the rest of them retreated, staying dozens of meters away from the cave entrance, fearing being sucked away by Yang Xiao’s Black Hole Swallowing again.

Yang Xiao took a few more steps forward, reaching about one or two meters away from the cave entrance.

From here, with a clear view, Yang Xiao and Lan Xin saw over a hundred Tibetan Mastiffs occupying the entire open area outside the cave, with the Tibetan Mastiff King surrounded by a group of them not far away.

Yang Xiao smirked, and continuously performed several One Finger Splitting Earth toward the distance.

Boom, boom, boom...

Several loud noises went off, giant spikes protruding from the ground, huge rocks on the ground cracked and flew about, and dozens of giant Tibetan Mastiffs were overturned.

The scene erupted into chaotic screams, and dozens of Ice Balls were hurled toward the cave entrance.

Bang, bang, bang...

The Ice Balls exploded, white mist enveloping the cave entrance. Yang Xiao felt a shiver as a chill instantly penetrated his body, making his body slightly stiff. He quickly retreated back into the cave.

He initially wanted to use Sweeping Void for a surprise attack, but now there was no chance.

Worried about Yang Xiao overexerting himself, Lan Xin hurriedly advised:

”That’s enough, you killed over a dozen Tibetan Mastiffs with one move. They won’t dare to lurk at the cave entrance anymore. Let’s go back for breakfast.”

Yang Xiao and Lan Xin returned inside the cave where Xiao Lan and others were busy barbecuing Tibetan Mastiff meat.

The overall temperature at Divine Mountain is still minus ten degrees, and the Tibetan Mastiff killed last night had already frozen solid, which was beneficial as there’s no need to worry about the body decomposing and it could be preserved for a long time.

A two-thousand-kilogram Tibetan Mastiff could feed Yang Xiao and about a dozen people for at least ten days.

This cave was clearly modified by The Day After Tomorrow to suit the seniors from Shenming Mountain Sect for another period of cultivation. In the deep corner of the cave, a recessed wall was converted into a simple toilet with a hole about ten centimeters wide that led to the outside for convenience.

A row of bookshelves was used as a screen in front of this recessed wall to make it look more elegant.

The large hole on the cave wall allowed some light to enter the cave, which, although not very bright, meant that during the day, there was no need for lights, but if reading was necessary, oil lamps would be needed.

If living in the cave for a long time, the only problem would be the water source.

Yang Xiao and the others talked while eating the roast meat.

”Did your masters previously cultivate here in seclusion, how did they solve food and drink problems?”

”We would arrange for someone to deliver food to Master’s cave every day.”

”It seems there is no water source here.”

”Will the Tibetan Mastiffs outside just go away on their own?”

”I don’t know, they can’t rush in; they probably won’t last much longer. After I finish eating, I’ll go and harass them again. Killing over a dozen Tibetan Mastiffs each time, I guess they will retreat.”

Yang Xiao said with a laugh.

After eating, Yang Xiao, Lan Xin, and Xiao Lan, several experts, walked back to the cave entrance, this time not seeing any Tibetan Mastiffs at the entrance, probably staying far away.

However, as Yang Xiao attempted to step out of the cave entrance, still about a meter away from it, dozens of Ice Balls flew towards the cave entrance.

”Damn, these Tibetan Mastiffs are ambushing us nearby!”

”They have no food; perhaps they will leave soon,” said Xiao Lan.

Yang Xiao glanced at the distance, frowned, and said:

”I thought that too initially, but now the situation has changed. The bodies of the dozen Tibetan Mastiffs I killed this morning near the cave entrance have all been dragged away and eaten by them.”

Lan Xin and the others were shocked and looked towards the distance. Indeed, on the ground, there were two Tibetan Mastiff bodies left with only bones, the rest were all gone.
