Stowing the Crystal Core, Ji Dong rose into the air again, heading deeper into Holy Evil Island. Not long after his departure, a dark green figure flickered into view — a scorpion had silently appeared at the location where the Cannibal Monster's body was burning. It carefully observed the area before rising into the air and quietly disappearing into the forest.
Four hours later, Ji Dong had already ventured deep into Holy Evil Island. Of course, he was still only on the outermost first layer of the island. He hadn't encountered any mishaps along the way, and although he came across five or six Magical Beasts, most of them only Third or Fourth Order beasts. Ji Dong, uncharacteristically gentle, easily reaped their lives to collect their Crystal Cores.
