Zhang Jing walked carefully through the woods, sword in his right hand, shield in his left, with some ashes and snow falling from the gaps in the tree canopy on his hat and shoulders.
This was his third day in this world. Besides his weapons, he carried a light crossbody bag. To make it easier to move around and reduce weight, he had left his heavier hiking backpack and other heavy items in a nearby cave.
He walked past a weathered skeleton of some unknown creature, nimbly leaping onto a tall tree nearby, carefully observing his surroundings. He had been away from the cave for an hour, searching for prey rather than traveling, so he was simply circling the cave in a spiral pattern.
Along the way, he had just encountered a group of roaming monsters, but there were too many of them, more than ten in total. And since they didn't seem like easy prey, he took cover as soon as he noticed them. Apart from that, he didn't find anything else.
Upon arriving in this world, Zhang Jing was once again teleported to a location completely different from his previous one. However, with the experience from before and a significant improvement in his own strength, Zhang Jing gradually began to adapt to the environment.
His goal this time was very clear: to hunt as many monsters as possible to increase the amount of spiritual liquid in the "Demon Refining Pot".
Similarly, the moment Zhang Jing arrived in this world, just to be on the safe side, he made a wish in the wishing book: "I wish that I will have good luck in the rest of my journey in this world."
Perhaps because of the effect of the wish book, Zhang Jing has not yet encountered any overly dangerous situations.
Silently climbing to the top of a giant tree that would take several people to encircle, he looked around and suddenly noticed some sounds, like birdsong, coming from the bushes ahead.
Zhang Jing took out binoculars from his backpack, put his eyes close to them, and peered into the distance.
It was a rather large bird-like creature, with blue-black feathers all over its body. From a distance, it looked more than half a person's height. However, Zhang Jing noticed that its head seemed to be a hybrid of a bird and a lizard, with two pairs of eyes. Its wings had small claws, and its body was covered with strange feathers mixed with scales. This reminded him of the Archaeopteryx model he had seen in a museum. It was somewhat similar, but even more bizarre. Moreover, these creatures were obviously much larger.
