Live Strong in the Wilderness

Chapter 384: Breaking Away from the Main Group



"Xu Yi, why are we leaving the main group? Everyone’s heading back to the camp, aren’t we going back?" Lu Ke asked, puzzled. An hour ago, Xu Yi suddenly said they should act independently.

So, Qin Fan’s team and his own team split from the group.

Jerry saw it and said nothing.

Lei Jie saw it and said nothing either.

"For hunting, for survival. We’ve searched such a large area without encountering any animals, indicating that animals in the jungle are actually quite scarce. Being with too many people inevitably leads to conflicts over food, at which point small groups become the ideal mode."

"The ones that attacked us before were mainly omnivorous creatures, not purely carnivorous. Carnivores are stronger, and the more powerful a creature is, the more likely it is to live alone," Xu Yi said directly.

"But we’re only 12 people, can we handle more than two Fierce Beasts?" Wang Jin asked worriedly. When Xu Yi proposed the idea, they immediately executed it. However, she still had some doubts in her heart, and now that Lu Ke asked, she took the opportunity to voice them.

"I can kill one by myself and hold off another," Xu Yi answered straightforwardly, completely revealing his strength.

"No way, that strong? Idol, you’re not lying to me, right?" Qin Chao was stunned; could Xu Yi really be this powerful?

They could manage to deal with one as a group, and Xu Yi could kill one and hold off another by himself?

Damn, is he even human?

"It’s not that I’m too strong; it’s that you’re too weak. But don’t worry, I feel you’ll improve quickly in the jungle. The deeper you go, the faster you improve," Xu Yi said with confidence, having sensed it with his Spiritual Power.

"Spiritual Power, can it really be this strong?" Qin Fan glanced at Xu Yi, asking enviously.

"Strong? No, I’m still weak. The organizers are truly powerful; I’ve seen one of them, who can slaughter these low-level Fierce Beasts, killing hundreds or thousands alone," Xu Yi said helplessly, having experienced it many times in his memory space. That Spirit God was incredibly strong.

"That’s no longer human; that’s godlike, isn’t it?" Zhou Mo widened his eyes, barely able to believe his ears.

"When your Telekinesis is strong enough, you can do it too. There’s a magical substance in the air on this planet that allows us to continuously get stronger," Xu Yi said with a smile, indeed like something godlike.

Flying, erasing earth, a long life, isn’t that quite fitting for the definition of a god?

For the Spirit God, these things are not difficult.

"Spiritual Power?" Wang Jin asked, her imagination running wild.

"It’s some magical element; the organizers are probably still researching it. You can call it Spiritual Power. Anyway, the deeper you go, the denser the Spiritual Power, and the more lush the vegetation. Whether plants affect Spiritual Power or Spiritual Power affects plants, I don’t know," Xu Yi explained, all perceived through his Spiritual Power.

Visible to the naked eye is that the trees are getting thicker, and the other vegetation is becoming more lush.

"Indeed, the trees here are thicker than the walls we built for the campsite," Lu Yao touched a big tree, looked up, and then said, "They seem taller too."

"Then didn’t the ones who went to the edge of the jungle earlier make the wrong choice?" Su Yan said sympathetically.

"Who knows about right or wrong? Perhaps the ones who are wrong are us? Besides, I hadn’t noticed these things back then. It was only after they left, having said those things, that I started paying attention," Xu Yi shrugged. After all, they were all adults, capable of taking responsibility for their actions.

"Xu Yi is too much; he clearly discovered these things and yet said nothing. Is he so afraid of others becoming strong, such a small-minded person."

"Ha ha, is his discovery necessarily accurate? If he’s wrong, won’t you accuse him of malicious intent in misleading others?"

"If he’s really wrong, that’d be too much of a trap, wouldn’t it? It’d trap his own team and Wanzi’s group!"

"It’s too risky; the jungle is extremely dangerous after dark. If they can handle one or two, encountering five or six would mean collective doom, wouldn’t it?"

"I think Xu Yi is a bit arrogant; doing this could endanger lives."

"I used to think Xu Yi was smart, but now I see I was wrong."

"Just wait for the person upstairs to get slapped in the face."

Xu Yi and the others moved forward for a distance, then discovered a small stream.

"There should be animals coming to drink here; there are footprints and droppings," Qin Fan observed some animal droppings and footprints and commented.

Xu Yi took a look and then said, "Not many, around two or three."

"Looks like they just left." Saying this, Qin Fan pointed at the droppings, confident Xu Yi could discern it too.

"Hmm, they haven’t gone far; they probably heard our noise. Maybe, they’re nearby, secretly observing us," Xu Yi said, glancing around.

Although he couldn’t see the figures, Xu Yi sensed some things and caught some scents.

The Black Qilin was also sniffing around, appearing somewhat uneasy.

"Xu Yi, you want to capture and tame them, right? That’s your real reason for leaving the main group. After all, if everyone knew you had this ability, they’d beg you to tame mounts for everyone. Then you wouldn’t have time for anything else in these hundred days," Wang Jin suddenly realized the key point and excitedly spoke.

Xu Yi rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "Read between the lines, and we can still be good partners."

"Hehe, great, we’ll soon have mounts," Wang Jin said, jumping up and down with joy.

"Not just mounts, but battle companions," Lu Ke said, petting the Black Qilin’s head, knowing its combat skills were decent.

Xu Yi could kill one and hold off another, and the Black Qilin could also restrain one.

That’s why Xu Yi dared to break away with them.

"I now understand your confidence," Qin Fan said with a slight smile. He had been a bit worried, but after Wang Jin’s words, his concerns disappeared.

"Alright, I’ll admit it. My real ace is the Thunder Strike Gun. Spiritual Power can coordinate with the Thunder Strike Gun to break through a Fierce Beast’s defenses, effectively wounding it. We have three Thunder Strike Guns, so dealing with ten or so Fierce Beasts isn’t a problem. However, using it strains my Spiritual Power, so if possible, I try not to use it," Xu Yi said, revealing another trump card with a shrug.

Everyone looked at Xu Yi, unsure of how to express their feelings.

With such a powerful trump card, he indeed could lead a dozen or so people to survive in the jungle.

In the live broadcast room, many felt their faces burning from Xu Yi’s revelation.
