C11 Difficult past

Everyone was in high spirits as they advanced with indomitable will. Their spirits had reached their highest point.

A trace of bitterness also flashed through Ling Haotian's heart. He secretly nodded, but didn't feel too happy. Instead, his mood gradually turned heavy.

He knew that the hunters were all working hard to exhaust the last bit of their strength. Even though they were in a state of high spirits, once they weakened, it would be the time for everyone to be annihilated.

This was just like before death, he was energetic and completely cured. Everyone thought that he had completely recovered. How could he not know that he had spent the last bit of his energy to recover?

Everyone was currently facing such a situation.

After scanning their surroundings, the Fierce Beasts still surged forward like usual. As they roared, they rushed forward. Although a lot of them died, they could not stop them in the slightest.

Seeing this scene, Ling Haotian's heart became heavier and heavier. He felt that the entire night had become much deeper.

Turning his head, he looked at the front of the group. At this time, the Chief Hunter was covered in blood, and his movements had become a lot slower, as if he was also at the last moment.

However, his eyes were still as sharp as ever, fiercely sweeping his gaze forward. His body, which was not tall and sturdy, had an unparalleled imposing aura, and was incomparably majestic.

Although everyone was very excited, and the last bit of their power was released without restraint, it was as if Ling Haotian had seen the dirge of death.

"Kill!" Shaking his head, Ji Hao threw out those bad thoughts. He was trying his best to kill these beasts, and each one of them was beaten to death by him.

His fists quickly became blurry. There was the blood of a vicious beast, but there was also his own. The blurry flesh didn't affect his firm will in the slightest.

KILL, KILL, KILL...

Everyone silently charged, pressing on the last bit of energy in their bodies, treading on the bloody mud as they headed towards their unknown destination.

As they got closer to their destination, the energy within their bodies disappeared faster. The fatigue engulfed them once again.

Bang!

One of the soldiers fell to the ground, unable to move anymore. He panted heavily, staring at the sky above the forest, not a single ray of starlight flashing in the night sky.

Everyone was startled and immediately looked back. They shouted out his name but there was no response.

He did not die, but he was too weak. He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

"Carry him on your back and continue on our way. Don't stop!" The Hunter's slightly hoarse voice quickly woke everyone up, and one of them silently carried the person on his back.

Their hearts were heavy, and they were extremely tired. But since they were both brothers and teammates, leaving any of them behind was intolerable. Even if they knew that it would be a burden, they would never give up.

Surrounding the man on his back, the rest of the men continued their slaughter, leaving behind a trail of blood.

Suddenly, as if he had noticed something, the Huntress' hoarse voice rang out once again. This time, it was filled with excitement and joy as she shouted, "It's right in front of us. Everyone, follow me!"

With that said, everyone's eyes lit up, but they quickly dimmed down and didn't answer him.

To them, every word they said was a waste of physical strength.

They would rather kill more vicious beasts than to waste their energy on useless things. This was the only thought in their minds at the moment.

Obviously, the chief hunter also knew everyone's condition, so he didn't say much. He raised his broken blade and charged forward, as if he could see the light in the darkness.

The others silently followed behind him. Some of them fell down, and some of them even carried him on their backs. Needless to say, they had a tacit understanding with each other.

Together in life and death, brother!

Finally, not long after, Ling Haotian and Yu Meng, who had fallen at the back of the group, also saw the pitch-black cave. It was as deep as the mouth of a vicious beast, constantly devouring the darkness.

However, in their eyes, it was no less than the scorching sun in the sky. It represented light, it represented hope. The dark cave became their last refuge, the place where life was entrusted to them.

Although everyone had already lost a great deal of energy, their eyes could not help but light up. Their hurried footsteps could not help but speed up a little.

As long as they could get to the cave, they would have a chance at survival.

After experiencing so much, everyone had traveled a hundred miles and killed countless vicious beasts. This was an absolutely difficult challenge, no less than walking back and forth on the dangerous battlefield.

It was a miracle, an extraordinary miracle that no one had died yet.

Those men who had been carried on their backs and felt their entire bodies go numb, and even their spasms, could not help but shed tears at this moment. They muttered something that was perhaps due to excitement or pain.

He silently charged forth. The roars of the vicious beasts had long since disappeared from his ears. Only the dark and deep cave was getting closer and closer …

With a bang, Ling Haotian killed the berserk beast. Without caring about his injuries, he glanced at Yu Meng. A smile appeared on her pale face. It was so enchanting.

This smile caused Ling Haotian to nearly stop breathing; it was so beautiful that it was suffocating. However, a formidable strength flowed out from his heart, giving him an unprecedented level of ambition.

Bang Bang...

His heart was beating in his ears, and the sound of his blood vessels was reverberating. However, in his eyes, there was only a smile, as if that smile could give him strength.

"Big brother Haotian, what are you looking at?"

Noticing Ling Haotian's gaze that was full of aggression, Yu Meng's pale face blushed a little. Her delicate face became more and more crystal clear, and her tone was full of reproach.

After being awoken, Ling Haotian could only giggle, turn around and attack the berserk beast beside him.

Glancing at his back, a sweet smile appeared in Yu Meng's beautiful eyes. Her steps were light, yet her short sword was full of energy.

The two didn't seem to have lost any strength as they continued their slaughter.

After killing their way out, the group was finally led to the front of the mountain by the chief hunter. A pitch-black cave was right in front of them. Tears welled up in their eyes, but they were in no hurry to enter.

After ordering everyone to form a defensive circle to protect themselves from the berserk beasts, the chief hunter's torch lit up and he jumped into the cave.

He wanted to first go down and find out if there were any vicious beasts here, and if there were so many of them.

The pitch-black cave was illuminated by the fire in his hand. It was so deep that one could not see the end of it. However, after a moment, the chief hunter quickly came back.

"The vicious beasts inside have all been cleaned up by me. Everyone, come in. The cavern is wide enough for all of us to enter." His voice sounded.

Hearing this, everyone went crazy with joy. They carried the exhausted people and walked into the hall in an orderly manner.

It was still Ling Haotian and Yu Meng who made a break. The two of them waited until everyone had entered the cave before ruthlessly killing the fierce beasts at the cave entrance. Then, they turned around and entered as well.

However, they did not go deep because some Fierce Beasts felt the smell of blood and threw them over.

So, for the sake of everyone's safety, they could only stand guard at the entrance of the cave. Every time a Fierce Beast pounced towards them, they would kill them with lightning-like methods.

Gradually, a mountain of corpses was piled up at the entrance of the cave. Blood was flowing out, and the two of them were fighting until their hands were weak.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the chief hunter led a middle-aged hunter to replace the two of them.

After entering the cave, the two of them panted heavily and leaned against each other. They felt extremely exhausted, and even moving their fingers was extremely difficult.

If not for the support of their faith, they would have collapsed long ago.

The others were also lying down and sitting, eating some rations and drinking some water, constantly recovering their physical strength.

That night, everyone had made a trip to the gates of hell. Although they hadn't died, this sort of experience was unforgettable.

What was there to be afraid of after death?

In this pitch-black cave, the sound of heavy breathing was the only melody. However, everyone felt very close. It was even more comfortable than lying on the brick bed at home.

The wounded were self-governing. As they carried ointments with them, they also bandaged themselves up.

After recovering a bit of strength, Yu Meng's face turned red. Struggling to get up from Ling Haotian's embrace, she retrieved some medicinal juice from her cloth bag and evenly smeared it on the flesh on Ling Haotian's hand, as well as the other parts of the injury.

"Yu Meng, I'll do it myself!" Ling Haotian also recovered a little bit of energy as he spoke with a smile. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to take the bottle from Yu Meng.

However, Yu Meng gently shook her head and did not give it to him. Instead, she continued to daub on it carefully.

Her cultivation was relatively high. Although she was exhausted, she wasn't injured. However, looking at the injuries all over Ling Haotian's body, she felt even more heartache than if she were injured.

Seeing her expression, Ling Haotian also retracted his hand. He didn't persist, but looked at her with a gentle gaze, as if he was carefully examining a precious artifact that was passed down. He was extremely serious.

When Yu Meng finished smearing all of the medicine and put away the bottle, she couldn't help but be hugged by Ling Haotian again.

Sensing Ling Haotian's powerful arm, she panicked. She wanted to struggle, but her heart was moved. She didn't make a move and instead gradually relaxed.

Gently, she leaned into his arms again.

Seeing Yu Meng close her eyes with her eyelashes trembling like a frightened fairy, Ling Haotian breathed a sigh of relief as they naturally snuggled together.

When the others saw the two of them, although they felt a bit embarrassed, they seemed to have thought of something and became silent in the end. Even their heavy breathing gradually relaxed.

Even they couldn't bear to disrupt the beautiful scene before them.

Just like this, the shift changed overnight, but it was not Ling Haotian's and Yu Meng's turn to guard the cave. When Ling Haotian opened his eyes, there were many people all over the cave sleeping.

Smiling faintly, he glanced at Yu Meng who was sleeping soundly like a baby and did not move, afraid that he would wake her up.

After a tiring night, he should really take a break.

However, not long after, the sound of clear footsteps rang out. Ling Haotian's ears moved, and a trace of doubt appeared on his face. He lightly shook Yu Meng, waking her up.

"Big brother Haotian, what's wrong?" Yu Meng's eyes were hazy and sleepy. She wiped her eyes and stretched her body lazily. The way Yu Meng woke up was especially seductive and seductive.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Ling Haotian couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Only when Yu Meng stopped to look at him did he slowly say: "There seems to be a stranger coming, let's get up!"

"Strangers?" Yu Meng was puzzled. Her beautiful eyes blinked, showing that she did not understand.
