Still, although Di Tou was troubled by quite a number of beasts, his overall traveling experience was quite easy. For one thing, he knew where he was going this time around and wasn't wandering around and brute forcing his way out of the forest by simply traveling in a straight line this time around, and secondly, although he didn't have the Wu Kong and BeiDou combo clearing out the beasts for him this time around, he himself had ascended to the Nascent Soul Stage. With just a thought, hundreds of Spirit Needles could descend and wipe out all the beasts in the nearby region, much less the individual predators and small packs that came to challenge him from time to time.
