In the darkness.
Two fiends with scarlet eyes and pitch-black bodies bared their fangs and looked towards the wooden house.
They emitted low whimpers from their mouths.
Chen Nan had seen fiends on Earth before.
However.
The fiends on Earth were like children's play compared to those here.
Because the aura emanating from these two fiends made even him feel a palpitation and unease.
To be honest.
Even if he went all out now, even using spells, he might not be able to defeat these two fiends.
Just then.
Quinn took out four yellow talismans and distributed them to the three of them.
Then, he formed a hand seal.
The figures of the four instantly turned transparent.
Invisibility Talisman.
This was a type of item that could conceal one's form and aura.
It was also the best choice for evading fiends.
Just as the four became invisible.
The door of the wooden house was broken open by the fiends outside. They bared their fangs, staring at the empty wooden house, at the steaming snake stew, their saliva dripping down.
Hiss hiss hiss!
The saliva of the fiends was highly corrosive. It landed on the wooden floor, and the wood immediately emitted wisps of smoke, accompanied by a pungent odor that spread.
Although Chen Nan and the others were invisible, they felt dizzy upon smelling that odor.
The two fiends entered the wooden house and quickly devoured the snake stew.
Then.
A scene that made their minds explode occurred.
The two fiends did not leave. Instead, they curled up inside the wooden house and fell asleep.
"Boss, what should we do?" Zhou Li transmitted his thoughts, feeling somewhat broken.
The reason was simple.
The Invisibility Talismans could only keep them invisible for the duration of one incense stick.
And at this moment.
The two fiends were blocking the door.
They had no way to get out.
If the effect of the Invisibility Talismans wore off.
They would undoubtedly become birds in a cage, to be devoured by the two fiends.
Quinn's expression was solemn.
He was a hunter with extensive experience.
But he had never been in such a predicament, having his escape route blocked by fiends.
After a moment of hesitation, he said, "I'll force my way out. Once I'm out, you find a way to escape. When the Blood Vermillion Fruit ripens, you can come back to pick it. No matter what, you cannot let Shi Wu get that fire poker from Uncle Yu!"
Before the three could reply, he stepped on the head of the fiend by the door and charged out.
Roar!
The fiend sensed someone stepping on its head, its scarlet eyes snapped open fiercely, and it roared as it charged out.
The other fiend also followed.
Quinn's strength was formidable.
His movement technique was swift.
He could practically move without leaving a trace.
But.
Wherever he passed, a faint footprint was still left on the thick snow.
This became the clue for the fiends to track them.
"Once the fiends leave, they shouldn't return for a while. I'll go and lend Brother Quinn a hand!" Chen Nan immediately darted out. He affixed the Invisibility Talisman onto the wooden house.
The next moment.
The wooden house vanished into the icy wilderness.
And he was exposed under the night sky.
Exposed to danger.
However, even so, he could not stand by and watch Quinn meet his end.
Although he had imparted cultivation to Quinn in his dream last night.
However.
He did not believe that Quinn could have mastered the Hunyuan Creation Technique in just one night.
Roar!
Just as Chen Nan was exposed in the snowy night.
A fiend instantly spotted him, let out a roar, opened its gaping maw, and charged towards him.
The other fiend sensed its companion's call, abandoned its pursuit of Quinn, and also changed direction, charging directly at Chen Nan.
The two fiends advanced with imposing momentum, causing apprehension and unease.
"Come on!"
A cold glint flashed in Chen Nan's eyes. He immediately unleashed the Eight-Nine Arcane Art, transforming into a furious ape about twenty meters tall.
A flicker of apprehension appeared in the eyes of the two fiends.
But they still opened their gaping maws and pounced at Chen Nan.
"Scram!"
Chen Nan's voice boomed like thunder.
He raised his door-sized palm and directly slapped at one of the fiends.
Although he was now like a giant, his speed was not affected at all.
*Puff!*
His palm struck one of the fiends, sending it flying hundreds of meters away, but it did not kill it directly.
At the same time.
The other fiend bit down on Chen Nan's left shoulder.
The intense pain made Chen Nan grind his teeth.
But he endured the pain, grabbed the fiend with his hand, and then exerted force with his right hand, crushing the fiend's head.
*Splat!*
Along with a gush of black blood, the fiend breathed its last.
The other fiend, upon seeing this, charged forward desperately, intending to kill Chen Nan to avenge its companion.
This time, Chen Nan learned his lesson.
He casually picked up a stone larger than the wheel of a bulldozer and threw it at the approaching fiend.
*Splat!*
*Splat!*
As Chen Nan brought down his blow with force.
Black blood splattered from the fiend's body.
It let out a mournful cry, and then its breath completely ceased.
Chen Nan stopped, panting, and saw Quinn watching him tensely from a distance. He turned and ran towards the distance.
Although Quinn was trustworthy, he did not want to reveal his strength.
After all, one had to guard against others.
In chaotic times, one needed to be cautious.
If Quinn was to blame, it was because he spoke too quickly and couldn't keep secrets!
This could be seen after Chen Nan had imparted cultivation in his dream.
If he were a person with deep hidden intentions, he would never have told him about the opportunity he obtained in his dream.
Not long after Chen Nan left, Xialan and Zhou Li also cautiously arrived.
Seeing Quinn unharmed, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"What happened just now? Who killed these two fiends?" Xialan asked, her heart still pounding.
Zhou Li looked at the giant footprints on the ground, his expression grim. "It must have been a powerful being that killed those two fiends."
Quinn said, "It was the furious ape that saved us before. Its strength has increased a lot compared to last time."
Zhou Li and Xialan exchanged glances.
They hadn't expected that furious ape to have saved them again.
This was truly unexpected.
"Where is Chen Nan? Why isn't he with you?" Quinn asked curiously.
Xialan replied, "Shortly after you left, Chen Nan rushed out, saying he wanted to help you. Didn't you see him?"
Quinn shook his head. "No! I didn't see him at all."
Zhou Li asked cautiously, "Could he have been eaten by the fiends?"
"It's unlikely, unlikely!" Quinn immediately stated. "Although Chen Nan has amnesia, based on my understanding of him, he acts with discretion and wouldn't do anything reckless."
Xialan hesitated, then couldn't help but say, "Boss, have you ever considered that Chen Nan is that furious ape?"
Quinn frowned deeply. "What do you mean?"
Xialan said, "Think about it carefully. We've lived here for so many years, and we've never seen that furious ape.
But after Chen Nan appeared, that furious ape has appeared consecutively.
Don't you think this is too much of a coincidence?"
