For the sake of food and survival, many demons developed the habit of migrating, which led to the encounters of many different species of demons along the way.

During the ascent up Green Mountain, the number of wild demons far exceeded the number at the foot of the mountain, and Li Changsheng’s omniscience detected more demons than ever.

The wild demons in Green Mountain were usually common demons, which included hedgehogs, arthropods, skylarks, and sharp-mouthed porcupines.

Unfortunately, all the demons Li Changsheng encountered throughout the way were inferior grade demons with no cultivation value. Naturally, he did not intend to form contracts with any of them.

Whenever he encountered a demon attack, Li Changsheng would command Ai Xi to fight so that it could improve its combat ability.

After trudging forward for some time, Li Changsheng finally made it to the foot of Green Mountain after half a day.

Green Mountain was not a very tall mountain and was around four to five hundred meters high. However, it had a large surface area that covered dozens of miles, making it feel like a vast mountain range.

Along the way, Li Changsheng did not gain much from his foraging. He only obtained a few low-tier demon cores and a few inferior grade Spirit Herbs.

The ratio of superior grade demons to inferior grade demons was astoundingly low. According to Li Changsheng’s analysis, he would have to meet hundreds of wild demons before he would stumble upon a superior grade demon.

At the foot of the mountain, there was a rugged dirt road that was only half a meter wide at most, surrounded by dense bushes and weeds, numerous wild demons lurking within.

Danger was everywhere in the mountainous forests!

As he looked at the winding dirt road, Li Changsheng was on high alert because he did not know what would happen next.

Compared to the hilly forest where Ai Xi was captured, the vegetation here was much denser and the number of wild demons was also greater, making the trip undoubtedly more dangerous.

In addition to that, there were also community-type wild demons such as the Wind Wolves that seemed to have migrated to Green Mountain for some reason.

Compared to ordinary demons, the individual strength of community-type demons was usually weak. However, their large numbers were such a great advantage that the threat they posed was much greater than solitary demons.

Unless one had sufficient power, nobody in their right mind would provoke community-type demons unless they had a death wish.

When the clans released the task of encircling the Wind Wolves, Li Changsheng’s goals were clear to him. If he encountered a small number of Wind Wolves, he would wait for an opportunity before attacking.

Otherwise, it would be best if he just ran the other way.

Unless they encountered a Middle Order Wind Wolf, Ai Xi’s speed should be capable of making a good escape.

It did not take them long before Li Changsheng was forced to stop. His expression dropped and he scrutinized their surroundings with uncertainty.

Nearby, a huge beehive with a diameter of three meters hung on a large tree with a trunk so thick that it would require several people to wrap their hands around. Occasionally, wild bees the size of a human head flew in and out of the hive.

“Oh crap! Those are Killer Bees!”

The moment he saw the hive and wild bees, Li Changsheng immediately recognized what they were.

Killer Bees had low individual strength but were extremely aggressive in a swarm and most powerful demons would avoid them.

Without hesitation, Li Changsheng immediately hopped onto Ai Xi and directed Ai Xi to stay away from that area.

However, the Killer Bees reacted extremely quickly. When Ai Xi turned around, dozens of massive Killer Bees fluttered out of the huge hive. They buzzed and swarmed toward Li Changsheng.

Most demons had strong territorial instincts. Among them, the community-type demons were the most territorial. The moment someone walked into their territory, they would be attacked. The Killer Bees were a model example
