Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 658 - 615 Stepping onto the Summit 24

However, Tan Shuangshuang was wealthy and didn’t care about a Spiritual Pearl. She ca for training, not to hide in safe zones for safety, and only ca to the safe zone to spend a night.

So, Tan Shuangshuang spent only one thousand gold coins for her stay, as Fei Hu, being a Magic Beast, did not require additional paynt to accompany her inside.

These so-called safe zones really are just safe zones, providing only security. Inside, apart from alchemy tents for those guarding the safe zone, there is nothing else.

Visitors have to bring their own food, drink, and accommodation, although they can opt to buy them at high prices from others who have already entered the safe zone.

Where there’s demand, there’s a market. No matter the place, sharp-sensed rchants will find business opportunities. The items not provided by the safe zone are sold by rchants who pay sufficient Spiritual Pearls for a place in the zone and set up stalls selling food and various survival gear inside.

These rchants sell everything, from various survival tools to weapons, even Yellow Rank Lower Grade weapons for sale. Of course, these are sold at extrely high prices, far exceeding outside costs. Ordinarily, no one would buy them, but inside the Long Mountain, anyone who lost their weapons or tents to Magic Beasts would be willing to pay up.

Tan Shuangshuang and Fei Hu spent a night at the safe zone, leaving early the next morning. Tan Shuangshuang had a detailed map of the Long Mountain Range, recorded on a Jade Scroll, an alchemy product priced at three Spiritual Pearls.

Of course, the high price ensured high quality. Once the map in the Jade Scroll is activated, the holder can know their location.

You can point where you want to go directly on the map, and it will provide a route. If you go wrong, it will even prompt you, making it perfect for those who are directionally challenged, like Tan Shuangshuang.

Tan Shuangshuang journeyed with Fei Hu, collecting herbs along the way, fighting Magic Beasts around her level, and fleeing from higher-level ones. It was a hectic journey of leaping tigers and dashing humans.

Staying in the alchemy tent at night wasn’t very safe either. Tan Shuangshuang’s tent, being rely Interdiate, did not perfectly hide their presence.

It could deter Magic Beasts below Level 10, but those above could easily detect them, so Tan Shuangshuang and Fei Hu took turns watching at night to remain vigilant, lest a High-level Magic Beast suddenly attack and destroy the tent.

Such days can last ten days or more, but prolonged tension leads to ntal fatigue, a condition not easily regulated by the cultivator but a natural bodily response that can’t be resisted, only adapted to gradually. Hence the necessity of safe zones.

However, such intensive training and ntal strain have benefits. In one short month of training, Tan Shuangshuang perfectly advanced through three small stages, upgrading from warrior to Third Rank Warrior.

Breaking through three small stages in a month, Tan Shuangshuang’s cultivation speed was enough to surpass many gifted prodigies, though she was not fully satisfied. Her goal was to advance at least five small levels on this journey.

On the other hand, Fei Hu, although a Magic Beast, adapted well to mountain life on his first outing and broke through to beco a Level 6 Magic Beast at a speed comparable to Tan Shuangshuang’s breakthrough. Such speed is extraordinary for a Magic Beast, showing Fei Hu’s exceptional potential among Winged Tigers.

During the midday rest, while stroking Fei Hu’s fluffy fur, Tan Shuangshuang thought proudly that it was her excellent care, feeding it various Spiritual dicines since it was young and raising it lovingly herself, that contributed to Fei Hu’s impressive growth.

While Tan Shuangshuang was taking the mont to happily pet Fei Hu, she keenly heard what seed like the clash of weapons not far away, mixed with desperate cries for help.

Tan Shuangshuang frowned. The sound of clashing weapons clearly indicated it wasn’t a battle with Magic Beasts but rather human infighting. Only humans use weapons, as Magic Beasts’ bodies are their weapons.

Tan Shuangshuang hesitated for a mont, then stood up, intending to sneak over quietly to assess the situation. If those calling for help were good, she’d lend a hand; if it was infighting or black-on-black violence, she’d leave it alone.

It wasn’t that Tan Shuangshuang was overly suspicious, but such occurrences were frequent. Long Mountain held countless treasures, high-level Spirit Grass, high-grade Spirit Jade, high-level Demon Cores, even legacies of powerful cultivators’ dwellings, leading people to betray each other out of greed.

Since mastering the Three Turn Body Sculpting Technique, Tan Shuangshuang’s five senses far exceeded those of a warrior, comparable even to a Great Martial Artist, so although she heard the commotion, she had to walk a considerable distance to reach the scene.

She approached stealthily, hiding her presence along the way, so when she arrived and saw another group secretly watching, they hadn’t noticed her.

What surprised Tan Shuangshuang even more was she recognized Hua Qingcheng among this group of onlookers.

However, this ti Hua Qingcheng looked different from the last ti they t. Previously, Hua Qingcheng’s attire was exquisitely beautiful, though cumberso, with long-sleeved, flowing dresses.

This ti, Hua Qingcheng was in a more neutral and practical outfit, with her hair tied up high and no accessories. Her aura had completely transford from the frail flower-like deanor to the resilient temperant Tan Shuangshuang was familiar with.

Tan Shuangshuang frowned. She could never fully understand Hua Qingcheng, unsure whether she was good or bad because in her past life, Hua Qingcheng always appeared as an innocent party.

For instance, she seed unaware that her suitor Liang Ziqian had Tan Shuangshuang as a dedicated fiancée, and although she agreed to be with Liang Ziqian, it was only after he vehently rejected Tan Shuangshuang, making it clear things wouldn’t work out between them.

Although it seed Hua Qingcheng had no direct conflict with Tan Shuangshuang, the tensions between Tan Shuangshuang and Liang Ziqian were exacerbated by her actions. Did Hua Qingcheng truly not know? Tan Shuangshuang doubted it because the issues she caused over Liang Ziqian were significant and horribly embarrassing.
