Gu Qingshan picked up the blood-colored Jade Plate. After carefully inspecting it, he filled the plate with Spirit Power and gently started it up.

A strange, otherworldly voice rang out from the Jade Plate immediately.

“Target is moving toward the south, east 726, south 94. Instruction: Faceless Giant, Blood Drinking Demon army to chase and attack target.”

Gu Qingshan immediately understood what was happening.

This was a dispatch order for the demon army, and it was a message to guide the direction of the army’s movement.

So this strange bird was really a messenger for the demon army, and it was here both to send a message as well as to move them in the right direction.

This messenger was moving at an extremely high speed and could fly at the speed of lightning when it went at full speed. If it hadn’t been so severely injured, Gu Qingshan wouldn’t have been able to shoot it down.

Without the information and instruction from this strange bird, the demon army was definitely going to end up going way off from the target they were chasing after.

Gu Qingshan pressed the blood-colored Jade Plate in his hands, then put it into his storage bag.

He hadn’t expected himself to coincidentally ruin the movement of a demon army.

Since the demon bird was dead, the Faceless Giant and the Blood Drinking Demons would probably be hampered for the time being.

His cultivation level was too low, so that was the most he could do. Gu Qingshan sighed quietly.

He couldn’t go on like this. He had to find a way to change his situation as quickly as possible.

Power! He needed more power!

Gu Qingshan’s eyes were filled with determination and desire.

He washed away the mud on himself, then went to look at Zhao Liu, who was still unconscious. Gu Qingshan then grabbed a whole bunch of arrows, slung the bow on, and left the camp.

Gu Qingshan finally dragged a demon back to the camp in the evening.

Actually, he hadn’t gone very far. His cultivation level had been too low, so he’d had no choice but to use all the stealth moves he had to take a walk around the camp, narrowly dodging several fierce demons and finally killing a few small and low-level ones.

All these demons were at the lowest level among the demons, so they were very suitable for refining Qi in the early stages.

Since he was only at Qi Refiner Level 2 and was fairly weak, he’d had to use all the arrows in his quiver as well as sustain more wounds on himself before managing to kill a few demons.

It was hard to blame him for being in this state. In his previous life, players had formed large teams and used all their might to kill off one demon when they’d first started hunting demons.

Even a small demon could weigh nearly 200 kilograms, so it was hard for an ordinary person to move that sort of weight by himself.

There was limited space in the storage bag, so in order to allow freedom of movement, Gu Qingshan had only brought one of the demons back.

He’d just given up on carrying the rest of them.

There were dangers everywhere in the forest. The stench of the blood on the demons’ dead bodies quickly attracted several predators.

The War God system didn’t seem to care for low-level demons. After spending the entire day hunting, the system only awarded Gu Qingshan with 1 point of Soul Power.

Now he had a total of 4 points in his Soul Power. But his XP side was doing well and had finally hit 10 points.

He could advance in level now.

That small demon he’d brought back was enough for him and Zhao Liu to eat for several days.

The two of them could stick around for another two weeks if not for the fact that there weren’t enough Spirit Stones at the Concealment Magic Formation.

By the time Gu Qingshan had returned to the campsite, Zhao Liu had woken up.

Zhao Liu stood at the entrance of the camp and looked out despairingly until he saw Gu Qingshan and the dead body of the small demon behind him. He was immediately filled with life again.

Zhao Liu bent down and stared intensely at that small demon without being able to look away at all.

He then said, “Bro, thanks for everything you did earlier. You’d better go take a rest, I’ll deal with this beast and I promise you’ll enjoy tonight’s dinner.”

“You can take it.”

Gu Qingshan left the demon there and went back to the room. He sat down cross-legged and shut his eyes.

“XP is now 10/10. Confirm level up?”

“Yes.”

Once Gu Qingshan had made his choice, the breath and blood flowing within his body started rushing, and even his Spirit Power started to move, but there were parts of his body where Spirit Power was stuck and didn’t allow anything to pass through.

Since he could feel where it was stuck, it meant that it was time to break through these barriers.
