Zi Jiao began to tell about her experiences in the last four years after she and Liu Yang separated.After having taken the transport array, Zi Jiao went to a place called Beginning Village, this was the place where people who were poor and had no funds would go to start leveling. There was such a village in each of the great countries of every continent in the Nine Worlds.
Her arrival did not attract anyone"s attention since everyone thought that Zi Jiao was like all of them, someone with no background. Even when she was clothed in a cloak that completely covered her body.
Despite being called a village, the place was an extremely large city, it looked like a small country in the previous world of Liu Yang. As most of the population of the Nine Worlds were poor or without influential background, the city was full of people pacing.
The shops were all run by mortals, since all the people in the city were only mortal, on rare occasions, there was someone of level 10 or 20.
In some places, there were scouts who came from clans who had some sort of influence, since sometimes there was someone with a good talent for combat and these clans would recruit these people.
As Zi Jiao was only level 1, she could not go until the guild of adventurers took missions in exchange for items, so she would have to reach level 5 first.
Zi Jiao just walked into the forest that existed on the other side of town, is on level 1, she would get tired after walking, Zi Jiao bought an ordinary horse and traveled for a few hours before reaching the forest.
The forest looked like an immense sea of green and large trees, looking outside could not see what was inside because of the darkness. The size of this forest was as large as the territory of ten large countries combined.
The forest area was divided into several zones, border, intermediate and final. The creatures on the border were only level 1-10, the intermediate was 11-30 and in the final zone were 31-50. Those who managed to reach the final zone would be ready to begin the journey around the world.
Zi Jiao was like the vast majority, using horses to travel. As they reached the entrance to the forest, there was already a crowd on the spot looking for other people to form groups to level together. But there were also others who came directly into the forest after they arrived at the entrance, Zi Jiao was in this group, she entered the forest directly with the horse.
The part of the border had a few bundles of light that illuminated much of the area, the trees were green and full of life. There were several people fighting in various surrounding areas, there were groups or solo.
Zi Jiao wandered for a few minutes before finding the first creature, it was a green slime with a bright core in the middle, it was level 1 creatures. Using the sword she received from Liu Yang, Zi Jiao just cut the core.
With just a blow of the sword, the core was destroyed and then a ball of light went towards her body. Zi Jiao was extremely happy about it, it was the first creature her killed.
She did not care about the remnants of the slime body, Zi Jiao only had one thought: Level as much as possible.
For several hours in a row, Zi Jiao fought off gooses. Along the way, she encountered several types of slimes, some were green, blue, red, brown. Each of them was of a different element.
Due to the medium-quality sword that Liu Yang gave her, Zi Jiao managed to overcome these slimes without any problem, adding the fact that there were several cheap elixirs in the bag that Liu Yang gave her, Zi Jiao managed to fight for several hours without getting tired.
In a few hours, she reached level 8 but was still in the border zone. The experience gained by killing the level 5 slimes was still good, so she kept fighting for a few more hours.
Since Liu Yang did not want Zi Jiao to draw too much attention, he gave her just enough to level the ten basic levels with no problem.
After a few hours…
Zi Jiao reached level 15 at that time, she had spent some of the consumable items that Stamina recovered that Liu Yang had given her. She had the thought of returning, but suddenly she heard a roar of some wild animal.
Approaching the place, she sees a large black slime with two lights inside and two wolves, an adult and a cub, the adult wolf was slightly injured, its leg was burned due to slime, the puppy was quite scared while looking for the adult wolf.
Zi Jiao was surprised by this scene, but soon remembered that life in the Nine Worlds was the law of the jungle, the weak was food of the fort. The things that happened in the common world also happened in nature, the strongest animals devour the weakest.
Looking at this scene, she felt sorry for the puppy that would grow up without the protection of an adult. Zi Jiao remembered her childhood when she saw this, she did not know the reason, but she immediately ran towards the black slime and attacked one of the bright points with the sword.
Due to the innate talent, Zi Jiao"s strength was much higher than someone at level 20, so it was easy to destroy one of the bright spots with just one blow, and quickly moving the sword, Zi Jiao destroyed the second point of light.
When the two bright spots were destroyed, the black slime began to squirm before turning only a black liquid to the ground. A sphere of light went toward Zi Jiao"s body, and then a system sound is heard, it leveled again.
Zi Jiao walked slowly toward the wolf that had both legs bruised, cautious in the eyes of the adult wolf and the cub was hidden behind. She just took out the last jar of elixir and placed it in front of the adult wolf.
The wolf felt the scent and realized that there was nothing wrong, Zi Jiao poured the liquid into the wolf"s mouth, powerful energy pa.s.sed through each part of its body, and the wounds began to heal quickly.
The puppy realized that the adult had been cured and was no longer in danger, as a gesture of thanks, it went to Zi Jiao and howled a few times. She just stroked the little puppy head and say a few words like: Grow up and stay strong to protect your parents and loved ones; do not fear the danger, but know when it"s time to carry and the time to leave.
The adult wolf had a look of grat.i.tude in the eyes as it began to howl repeatedly. Seconds later a group of adult wolves began to emerge. It was called.
After howling a few more times, the wolf group just lowered its head and closed its eyes as a form of thanksgiving. The two lost wolves returned with the group, while Zi Jiao mounted her horse and began to return to the city.
