The silver moon hung in the sky, covering the forest with a cool light. The beasts howled, and the wind blew.

Mo Wen walked out of the forest step by step, his shadow stretching a long way behind him.

He had decided to complete the task. Even though it was very dangerous, there were many opportunities to be gained.

Earlier, the tower spirit had given everyone a message. There were endless opportunities in this place, as long as you were lucky and had the ability to grasp them.

Accepting the task given by the tower spirit might be one of the ways to take advantage of the opportunities that Mo Wen knew were here.

He did not know what the prize hidden in the task might be, but he knew getting his hands on it would not be easy.

Mo Wen believed that even if he did not manage to defeat the four monstrous beasts that were all at the peak of the seventh rank, as long as the beast king did not awaken, then he would still be able to get away.

Furthermore, he had four allies. Those who had accepted the task would definitely have a bit of skill.

As soon as he had accepted the task, a map had appeared in Mo Wen's mind. His location and the location of the abandoned city were both marked on it. He could reference the marks in his mind to find the abandoned city.

The ancient city was not far away. It was about 30 kilometers from the forest he was in. As he emerged from the forest, Mo Wen could see the ancient city from in the distance.

The ancient city seemed especially desolate in the moonlight. No humans lived in the city—it was inhabited solely by monstrous beasts.

Whoosh!

Mo Wen had reached the edge of the ancient city when a dark figure flashed by him. The ferocious figure rushed at him from the dark before Mo Wen had even been able to enter the city.

Mo Wen flung his palm out, killing the seventh rank illusionary beast instantly. There was a flash of light that quickly became a shower of starlight, entering Mo Wen's body.

A ball of red light floated in mid-air. It was another low-grade Healing Light.

Mo Wen now possessed a dozen Healing Lights. They were all low-grade healing lights but in Mo Wen's view, one could never have too many healing lights. Earlier on, a Saber-Toothed Tiger Demon had snagged Mo Wen with its claws, seriously injuring him. Mo Wen had used a low-grade healing light and had been completely healed.

Mo Wen continued to walk into the city, not attempting to hide. He knew that he would not be able to conceal himself from the illusionary beasts in this space.

All of a sudden, roars could be heard coming from the beasts of the city, all of them joining in one after another. This was followed by a large crash. It seemed as if numerous armies of beasts galloping.

"Eh? What's that?" Mo Wen narrowed his eyes and stretched out his sense of perception. He discovered that the beasts in the ancient city were all moving in large droves towards an area.

Mo Wen glanced at the city thoughtfully. "Has someone already entered the ancient city?" Such a kerfuffle would not occur amongst the monstrous beasts in the city unless a human warrior had already arrived there.

He knew that there were four human warriors who had accepted the task, but he did not know who had arrived in the ancient city first.

Mo Wen tapped his feet gently and he soared upwards. He flew towards the ancient city at the speed of lightning.

The monstrous beasts discovered him the moment he entered the ancient city. Droves of monstrous beasts surrounded him.

Mo Wen twisted his wrist and flung his hand out. A gray light glowed and a small mountain peak flew into the air. It grew bigger and fell to the ground forcefully.

There was a loud crash and many monstrous beasts died beneath the mountain peak. A shimmer of light flowed out from beneath the mountain peak and flooded into Mo Wen's body.

The monstrous beasts at the periphery of the city were not strong. Seventh rank monstrous beasts were a rarity here. Mo Wen could kill many of them with just a strike.

The gray mountain peak was a top grade spiritual weapon. It was extremely powerful in this space, more than doubling its original strength here.

Mo Wen charged through the outskirts of the city because he knew that the treasures of the beast king would definitely be in the center. He would only be able to steal the treasure if he could reach the center.

A large number of monstrous beasts surged up to Mo Wen like a tidal wave. However, the monstrous beasts could not withstand Mo Wen's casual strike. Shimmering starlight kept flowing into Mo Wen's body, increasing his strength. At the peak of his attacks, starlight gathered and flowed like a vortex beside Mo Wen.

It took Mo Wen 15 minutes to reach the center of the city.

This part of the ancient city had been completely abandoned. It was littered with fallen walls. However, there were several tall and large buildings in the middle. Some of them stretched up into the clouds, looking dignified and elegant.

It was clear that, in the past, the city must have been extremely prosperous.

Mo Wen discovered that there was a large number of monstrous beasts surrounding the northwest corner. He could vaguely make out a person taking out the monstrous beasts.

It was possible that the person Mo Wen could see had attracted the attention of a large number of monstrous beasts because he had been the first to enter the city. As the next to arrive, Mo Wen had not encountered as much resistance.

However, any human warrior who entered the ancient city would become a target for the monstrous beasts. Many monstrous beasts had already surrounded Mo Wen on his path into the center of the city.

As he ventured into the city center, the monstrous beasts he encountered became more powerful. There were seventh rank monstrous beasts everywhere.

His expression frosty, Mo Wen killed the monstrous beasts one after another. His gaze swept over the ancient city, searching for where the beast king treasure could be.

Mo Wen found his target moments later. On a square a thousand meters away, he could see a very large altar. There was a pillar of light in the middle of the altar, and in the middle of the pillar of light a rectangular jade box was suspended in the air. It glistened and shimmered, looking highly expensive.

The white jade box was only about the size of a medicine case. There were strange ripples on it. If Mo Wen was correct, he had found the beast king's treasure.

However, there was a large figure perched under the altar. It was more than 70 meters long, and even when it was crouched on the ground, it looked like a little mountain. It was the beast king!

Mo Wen's pupils shrank. The creature guarding the treasure was the beast king that ruled over the entire ancient city. Even though it was slumbering at the moment, its aura was still terrifying. Almost none of the monstrous beasts dared to go near it.

The knowledge that the beast king was crouched under the treasure box made Mo Wen's expression turn grave. How would he ever be able to steal the treasure box without alerting the beast king? This was a problem.

Crash! Suddenly, a nearby house collapsed and a tall and large figure emerged from the billowing smoke and dust. The figure was 10 meters tall and walked on two legs. It was an ape-like monstrous beast. The monstrous beast was bright blue and exuded rays of cold blue light. The ground which the creature walked across was immediately frozen and the air around him stilled.

The monstrous beast was obviously approaching Mo Wen. It bent its knees and sprung up into the air. It flew about 100 meters and descended with its fists targeting Mo Wen.

Mo Wen harrumphed and pointed his finger at the beast. The Dark Mountain Peak that was suspended above his head glowed. Then, it released a gray light which swept viciously at the ape demon.

The gray light collided with the blue ape demon and forced its enormous body down by several dozen meters. The ape demon was almost pressed onto the ground.

Roar! The beast roared angrily, releasing a blinding icy blue light from its body. A rush of cold wind swept down and a layer of ice appeared on the surface on everything in a thousand-meter radius. The water vapor in the air froze into beads of ice and rained onto the earth.

The terrifying cold air swept through the area and the gray light froze for a moment. The ape demon attacked, and there was a crackling sound. It sounded like blocks of ice shattering. The gray light that was pressing the ape monstrous beast down started to crack and then, it collapsed entirely.

The gray light shattered and the ape demon furiously beat its chest. Then, it bounced up again and rushed toward Mo Wen, who was suspended in mid-air. A terrifying cold air gushed out from its enormous body as if it wanted to entirely freeze heaven and earth.

"It's another odd monstrous beast." There was a flash of surprise in Mo Wen's eyes. He did not know whether the tower spirit had intentionally created a large number of extremely powerful monstrous beasts to increase the difficulty of this game.

The ape demon had cultivation levels that were above the seventh rank. Its combat abilities were also beyond that of the Saber-Toothed Tiger Demon that Mo Wen had encountered earlier.

Mo Wen did not know that such extremely powerful monstrous beasts were common in ancient times when the tower spirit existed. In fact, the tower spirit had intentionally reduced the appearance of such powerful beasts to decrease the difficulty of the game.

No matter how powerful the post seventh rank monstrous beast was, it could not pose any threat to Mo Wen.

There was a flash of light in the sky. The gray mountain peak suspended above Mo Wen's head suddenly became larger. It smashed down with a loud crash.

The ape demon was forced back onto the ground in a similar way to how the Five Fingered Mountain had pinned down the Monkey King.

Roar Roar! The ape demon had an extremely strong body. It did not suffer much damage from the attack. Instead, it struggled incessantly under the mountain peak, causing it to start shaking.

Mo Wen harrumphed and waved his hand. A black light flashed and the flying dagger spiritual weapon shot out. It curved with a dark glint and flew towards the ape demon's exposed head.

The ape demon finally showed signs of fear when it felt the terrifying killing aura from the flying dagger. It struggled madly. However, the gray mountain peak released rays of gray light. No matter how much the ape demon struggled, it could not escape from the confines of the mountain peak.

Roar! A shocking roar suddenly sounded in the sky. In the next instant, a powerful aura covered both heaven and earth, enveloping half the ancient city in a mere moment.

A flash of blue light appeared in the night sky. The blue light was like the light emitted by a blue-colored rising sun that released an endless brilliance.

Mo Wen's expression froze. He looked at the blue light in the distance gravely.

A blue colored gale started, whooshing past him and colliding forcefully onto Mo Wen's gray mountain peak. The mountain peak went flying.

The ape demon took the opportunity to bounce up. It moved quickly and evaded the attack by the flying dagger.

The ape demon glared at Mo Wen but did not attack again. It seemed to realize that it was no match for Mo Wen and had become much warier.

It took a few steps back slowly until he reached a spot where it felt that Mo Wen's attack would not reach it. Then, it turned around and made a gesture of respect and subservience to the blue light.

The winds billowed in the sky. A large figure cast a shadow above the ancient city, blocking the light of the moon.

A monstrous beast at the pinnacle of the seventh rank!

Mo Wen looked up at the sky. There was an enormous blue light monstrous beast in the air. It shimmered with blue light. It was a blue male eagle. It was 50 meters long and its wingspan was more than 100 meters. The aura radiating from it was more powerful than that of an ancient martial arts practitioner at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm.
