Jiang Chen had just eliminated another blood-colored monster. As usual, he took out the Aura Finder Smoke and lit it to locate Ye Fan. But this time, the smoke behaved differently—it didn't indicate that Ye Fan was behind him.
"Hmm?" Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes in thought. "It looks like he's stopped chasing monsters here and decided to go somewhere else."
"Hehe, Ye Fan, no matter what you do, I'll always be one step ahead," he muttered to himself, a cold smile playing on his lips. He quickly instructed the Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle to change direction, aiming to get ahead of Ye Fan.
On his way, Jiang Chen extended his divine sense into the Moondust Ring and found twelve more golden-red inner cores. These were obtained from defeating the blood-colored monsters recently.
Including the fourteen he already had, he now had a total of twenty-six Monster Cores.
