With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

The night was safer in terms of staying still since there was no knowing what was hiding in the forest at night. But when morning came, the spirit beasts that had been sleeping in the dark were now moving about.

It would only be a matter of time before spirit beasts stumbled onto their camp if they stayed here.

Perhaps they might be able to handle one or two, but if there were more spirit beasts that came, then it would be dangerous for them.

So the best thing to do was to stay moving to avoid these spirit beasts.

There was also something else that they had to do today…

They needed to find more rare herbs to boost up their points since right now, the Love Sect group didn\'t have anything. If they wanted to pass this first round, they really needed to find some more rare herbs that were worth a lot of points or they just wouldn\'t have any points to turn in.

So it was a bit of a crunch for the Love Sect group.

They had to avoid embarrassing not just themselves, but also the entire Love Sect.

That\'s why they were heading deeper into the Ten Thousand Beast Valley.

After a while, they finally stopped as they heard the sounds of fighting coming from in front of them.

This was similar to the sounds of fighting that they heard on their first day, but it seemed that the fighting was even more intense. However, that did make sense since they were deeper in the forest, where the stronger spirit beasts were.

But that also meant that the herbs that they were fighting over would also be stronger.

Stronger herbs meant more points…

As this thought passed through the mind of the Love Sect group, their eyes immediately lit up and they headed towards the sound of the fighting.

The Demon Palm Sect group revealed helpless smiles, but it wasn\'t as if they didn\'t follow along. After all, it wasn\'t as if they were done with just the White Jade Lotus.

They would also need more points if they wanted to pass the first round.

As they approached, they found that the sounds were getting louder and louder.

At the same time, it seemed like there were many different roars that were mixed into the fighting.

It was much more intense than the fight between the Sun Lion and the Steel Tiger.

It seemed like this wasn\'t just a simple fight…it seemed that there were far more than just two powerful spirit beasts that were fighting each other.

Finally, they came close enough to see what was happening in front of them.

There were many trees that had been knocked over and there was a pseudo clearing that had been created from the fighting. There were also many different attacks that were scattered all over the place.

From puddles of water, to large rocks, to patches of flames, to all kinds of different attacks.

It seemed that the fighting here really was intense…

But that made sense since there were so many spirit beasts that were gathered in this area.

It wasn\'t just three or four, there were over ten different spirit beasts that were still fighting. At the same time, there were over twenty different spirit beasts that were lying there on the ground.

This was more a battle royale than it was a fight.

It wasn\'t as if there wasn\'t a reason for this intense fighting.

It wasn\'t just a single herb that was growing there, it was an entire patch of different herbs growing there.

It was as if there was this strange patch of dirt there that was filled with spiritual energy that it was able to nourish all of those herbs that were poking out of the ground.

"Thunder Lingzhi, Blood Silk Mushrooms, Void Grass…This really is a treasure among treasures. It\'s hard to imagine just what is capable of growing all these different rare herbs."

The living encyclopedia of the Demon Palm Sect once again made his knowledge known to all.

Though they were already expecting the herbs that were in that patch of dirt to be rare, they didn\'t expect all of them to be this rare. It seemed like they had really hit the jackpot this time.

Though if one thought about it, these spirit beasts wouldn\'t be fighting this hard if that wasn\'t the case.

It was only because these herbs were so rare and filled with powerful medicinal essence that they would fight like this in the first place.

Now the only problem was…

"We can\'t fight them like this. It\'s a wonder that they haven\'t already destroyed that herb patch, but if we fight them…" Mo Sha said with knitted brows.

Huang Xie nodded in agreement before saying, "Not to mention, we can\'t do the same thing as before. There are just too many of them for us to lure away since we don\'t have enough people that can resist their attacks."

After all, most of these spirit beasts were actually stronger than the Sun Lion and the Steel Tiger.

Other than Huang Xie and Tie Yong, there was no one else who could lure them away like before. Even then, Huang Xie and Tie Yong wouldn\'t be able to lead them away for long if they used the same method as before.

So everyone was lost in deep thought as they watched the battle between the spirit beasts.

They also looked at the patch of herbs with anxious looks since they were afraid that these herbs would be destroyed by the spirit beasts during this time.

But to everyone\'s surprise, Xiao Ming suddenly said, "Well since we can\'t beat them, then we should run."

"Huh?"

Everyone immediately turned to look at Xiao Ming with confused looks when they heard this.

They had to take a moment to gather themselves to make sure that they had heard her correctly, but it seemed that they had heard her correctly based on the look that was on her face.

If so, then what did she mean by that?

Did Xiao Ming give up on these herbs?

Though if they thought about it, that did seem like the smart thing to do.

With how many spirit beasts there were, it didn\'t seem likely that they would be able to fight through them to take these herbs without hurting the herbs.

There was no doubt that they would be able to defeat the spirit beasts, it was just that it would come at the destruction of the herbs that they wanted.

Xiao Ming could see the look that was on everyone\'s faces, so she could tell what they were thinking.

So with a smile, she said, "Who said anything about giving up on these herbs? We\'ll run and take the herbs at the same time."

Everyone once again revealed confused looks when they heard this.

They looked at her as if they were trying to figure out what she was saying, but they just couldn\'t seem to understand what she was trying to imply.

How would they run away and get the herbs at the same time?

It didn\'t make sense at all.

"Our goal is just to draw them away while we take the herbs, right?" Xiao Ming slowly said this instead of answering the doubts that they had.

Everyone looked at her with a strange look before nodding in agreement.

With a smile, Xiao Ming said, "Then where does it state that we have to fight them to get the herbs? We just have to lure them away, there\'s no need for us to fight them at all. With our speed and endurance, we should be able to easily lure all of these spirit beasts away while some people from our group stay behind to gather the herbs."

Slowly, they realized that Xiao Ming was right.

There was no reason to fight to the death with the spirit beasts, all they wanted were the rare herbs for the points.

After a long silence, Mo Sha asked, "How do you want to do this?"

Xiao Ming gave an approving nod before saying, "It\'s very simple, all we have to do is…"

She slowly laid out her plan which caused the people listening to this plan to reveal surprised looks. However, those surprised looks also didn\'t remain on their faces for long as they were slowly convinced by what she said.

When Xiao Ming finished saying what she had to say, she asked the others, "What do you think?"

They were silent at first, but slowly Huang Xie and Yu Huang nodded in agreement before saying, "It seems like it could work."

They surprisingly said this at the same time, which made them glare at each other.

Mo Sha followed up by nodding in agreement as well before saying, "It certainly does have merit, but what if they don\'t act the way that you want them to? Stronger spirit beasts have their own intelligence, so they might not act the way that you want them to."

Xiao Ming gave a nod to show that she understood this before saying, "If they refuse to cooperate, then we retreat. There\'s no reason for us to risk our lives for this."

Mo Sha gave a nod of approval before saying, "Alright, let\'s do this then."

He had been worried that Xiao Ming might be too desperate to obtain these herbs, but it seemed like she was still calm.

Then there was no reason for them not to give this a try.
