Thriving in the Beast World

Chapter 856: Chapter 861: The Fifth Trial 4

"Ayin!"

Gaiyin’s flying motion paused slightly.

If Su Tang hadn’t called out to him, he might have missed them entirely.

In these towering stone walls, their figures were barely noticeable, not to mention they were standing in the shadows beneath the walls.

"How is it? Did you find anything?"

After steadying himself, Gaiyin nodded, "Yes, there is a structure ahead that might be a safety shelter, but it’s a bit off our planned route. Should we go check it out?"

Su Tang nodded, "Of course we should!"

What’s a little detour?

Life is obviously more important.

At that moment, the time displayed on Su Tang’s wristwatch was 1:30 PM. The time might not be accurate, but the sun directly overhead also suggested that more than half the day had passed.

They had walked all morning before encountering this safety shelter. If they missed it, who knew where the next one would be.

"In which direction?"

Gaiyin raised his hand and pointed southwest, "That way."

"Then let’s hurry. We can rest after we get to the safety shelter."

The group started hurrying along once more.

An hour went by.

Then two.

They still hadn’t found the safety shelter Gaiyin had mentioned.

Su Tang wiped the sweat from her forehead and turned to Gaiyin, "Ayin, are you sure you didn’t get the direction wrong?"

Gaiyin also furrowed his brows.

He leapt onto the stone wall again, surveying the surroundings—just more stone walls.

Suddenly, he caught sight of a stone wall not far ahead that was somewhat thicker than the others and realized something.

"The direction is correct, the safety shelter is still ahead."

Upon hearing this, Su Tang made a sour face.

When Gaiyin went to scout, it took him less than twenty minutes.

Even if they were walking on the ground and had taken a detour, this was still taking too long.

If only they could fly too.

"Sigh," Su Tang sighed.

But in the next second, a spark of inspiration flashed through Su Tang’s quick-witted little head!

They might not be able to fly, but they could walk!

The stone walls were quite thick, and although it might be a bit cramped for two people to walk side by side, there was no issue accommodating one.

The gap between each stone wall was not very large, and with the Beastmen’s remarkable leaping power, this distance was nothing to them.

It might be somewhat difficult for her, but she had Tiger!

With this thought, Su Tang’s eyes shone frighteningly bright, and her lips uncontrollably curved upwards.

"Hahaha, I really am a clever little devil."

Her sudden exuberance startled everyone around her; they thought the child had been driven mad from exhaustion.

However, once Su Tang shared her idea with everyone, they too had their moment of enlightenment.

"Tang cub is amazing; how did we not think of such a simple method before?"

"Quick, quick, quick, Ayin, take me up there!"

"Hey, these vines on the stone wall look pretty sturdy, let me see if I can climb up."

"It’s doable, everyone, hurry up here!"

Not long after.

All six people were standing neatly on top of the stone wall.

Gazing at the uneven landscape of tall and short, fat and thin stone walls, Su Tang exhaled a breath of turbid air and inexplicably felt as if her chest had broadened considerably.

Even though she wasn’t standing on the highest wall, she still had a sense of grandeur as if ’all the mountains looked small’!

With this method, no matter how winding the paths below were, as long as they kept moving in one direction above, they would certainly find the way out.

But—
