“According to the latest news from the Geological Bureau, there’s a high chance of causing small-scale frequent earthquakes in the city climbing area because of the crustal movement. According to experts’ predictions, there would be a certain earthquake, but please don’t worry, the magnitude of the earthquake is not enough to cause social harm, so there’s no need to be too nervous.

“However, experts predict that in the mountains near the city, there might be wild animals affected by the earthquake. A certain scale of wild animal migration will erupt, and in order to prevent unnecessary harm from the wild animals, civilians in Mount Shengu, Mount Qing, and Mount Bulao, please stay at home for the time being. This situation will not last long.”

Hearing the news broadcast on the local radio station, the villagers finally understood what had happened. So it was an earthquake?

Fortunately, the level was not high and would not be affected. There were all kinds of creatures living on Mount Shengu. From small weasels to poisonous snakes, to big wild boars and brown wolves, there was everything. Due to the local government’s governance, the ecological and environmental protection of Mount Shengu was very intact, and the surrounding villagers would almost not go deep into Mount Shengu.

Therefore, the ecology of animals was safeguarded, and it also allowed various types of creatures to reproduce on Mount Shengu. Of course, these animals rarely left the deep mountains, but there were often news reports that wild animals went down the mountain to destroy the fields. They even went to the farmers’ houses to steal chickens and livestock.

This was rare, but it happened occasionally. It was just that it rarely happened in many years. In recent years, there have been almost no earthquakes on Mount Shengu. Therefore, some young people found the current scene very interesting.

Black birds blotted out the sky. A large amount of dust was also stirred up on Mount Shengu and was spreading towards the village. However, the older generation was very experienced. An old man who looked to be in his eighties sat under the shade of the tree at the entrance of the village. He was holding a tobacco pipe in his hand and muttered to himself, “Here comes trouble…’

The old man’s words were quickly verified. A large number of small animals ran out of Mount Shengu. Although they were basically rabbits, snakes, and weasels, looking at them running around in the fields and streets, it could not help but make one’s scalp tingle. “Let’s go home and hide first.”

Everyone dispersed and ran towards the village. After all, no one knew if these snakes crawling on the ground were poisonous. Some of the campers who were climbing from the side of the mountain were also frightened by this chaotic scene until their faces turned pale.

“There’s an earthquake. The animals in the mountains are also restless!”

“Let’s go, don’t go up!”

It had to be known that most of the animals that escaped from Mount Shengu were small animals that lived not far from the foot of the mountain. They were afraid of the earthquake and fled in panic. However, it did not mean that small animals were harmless. For example, poisonous snakes were also aggressive.

As for the large animals in the mountains, it was definitely impossible for them to leave the mountains. There was no so-called beast tide in reality. At most, wild animals were agitated by the earthquake and caused chaos, but they could not come out of the mountains.

However, because of the earthquake, the animals living in the depths of the mountain would migrate for a certain distance and temporarily leave their territory to appear in the periphery of the mountain.

Therefore, these campers and explorers who were exploring Mount Shengu could not care less about their pride at this moment. Before the wild beasts riot in the mountain began, the true danger had yet to arrive. They all ran down the mountain, lest they bumped into a wild boar later and had no chance to escape.

Almost all the surrounding villages closed their doors and began to pray that their family’s fields would not be destroyed. However, the campers and explorers outside the village were not so lucky.

They were unfamiliar with this place to begin with. Even if they did their homework in advance, they would at most have some understanding of Mount Shengu. In this sudden situation, they ran down the mountain in a panic and did not know where to go at all. They could only think of a way to take a taxi back to the city.

The chaos caused by the beasts’ restlessness also continued to spread out of the mountain. However, there was only one figure walking in the opposite direction from the others. That person was wearing a blue sweater with his hands in his pockets and a hood. He walked steadily and forcefully up the mountain. His attitude was very stubborn, as if he would not stop until he entered the mountain.

“Look, is that a person?”

Soon, a few campers who had just come down from the mountain in the east hurriedly fled into the distance and noticed this figure.

“Hey! Are you crazy? Hurry up and leave. Don’t go up the mountain again!” “The wild beasts in the mountains are running around. Don’t go in.”

“What’s wrong with that person? Can’t he hear us?”

This person was Su Yun. The appearance of the earthquake did not change Su Yun’s goal. The campers’ voices entered Su Yun’s ears one after another, but he was not affected at all. He only cupped his hands at them from afar to express his gratitude. After all, he could not pretend not to hear others’ kind reminders.

“Don’t worry about him. Let’s leave quickly. It’s too dangerous in the mountains now.”

In the face of a disaster, everyone only wanted to protect themselves. How could they have the mood to care about others? Seeing that Su Yun did not listen to advice, everyone stopped caring about him and went down the mountain. At the very least, no one would approach Mount Shengu for the next few days. In fact, this was exactly what Su Yun wanted. He was even happy that no one would disturb him.

As for the impact of this earthquake, he was not unprepared. However, since he was already here, he could not give up halfway because of this.

Su Yun naturally would not advance rashly. He had long been prepared to avoid wild beasts as much as possible. For example, the path he had chosen now was close to the side of the mountain. The mountain path was steep. It was easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down the mountain. Therefore, the ones who would walk here were usually small animals. After all, they were more adapted to this terrain than large animals.

As for if he was unlucky and encountered a wild beast, Su Yun had some confidence. After all, he had a killing weapon in his hand. It was not as if he did not have the strength to fight.

Moreover, Su Yun had another goal: training!

In other words, wasn’t the current mountain environment providing him with a better opportunity to train? Compared to those criminals with weapons, these beasts were far less dangerous.

Su Yun’s expression darkened as he walked up the mountain path. As he went deeper and deeper, the number of people he encountered gradually decreased until he could no longer see anyone else. Only the black mass of birds above his head moved chaotically and accompanied him.

The sunlight above his head was gradually blocked by the dense trees. This meant that he had already left the periphery of the mountain and officially entered the deep mountains.

Dust and sand swept up, covering the entire Mount Shengu. Occasionally, beast roars that were shocked sounded, making people terrified. Only one person went against the crowd and entered the mountain alone under the gaze of the stone statue at the top of the mountain to cultivate his ultimate technique..
