Chapter 69

After seeing the strangeness on Uncle Zheng's body.

Chen Xuan guessed that this was clearly related to some Phantom Beast.

"You're talking about this!"

"An old problem!"

Hearing Chen Xuan's concerned tone, Uncle Zheng waved his hand, not taking it too seriously.

Indicating that this kind of thing was just a small matter.

Then!

He lifted up his shirt.

On his body!

There was actually a huge tattoo etched across his chest.

It was the image of a strange Phantom Beast, a pair of eyes filled with boundless hatred and resentment.

"This, it's all the trouble I brought on myself when I was young!"

"Have you ever heard of Direiji?"

"Direiji?"

"That's right, Direiji, the legendary Phantom Beast!"

Uncle Zheng pulled out a smoking pipe.

And started smoking.

His expression gradually grew hazy.

As if he had fallen deep into his memories!

…

"

Before, I was also a hunter.

When I was young, I too was once full of high spirits.

One day!

When I went out hunting.

I ran into a blizzard.

You know our world very well!

Strange weather can appear anywhere.

At that time, I was trapped inside a mountain valley.

Finally, after being trapped for several days!

I couldn't stand it anymore and had to go back.

So I risked climbing up the cliff.

But!

My hands and feet were frozen.

And were no longer so nimble.

I lost my grip and fell.

Just when I thought my life was about to end!

A black figure appeared.

A slender body, an elongated face, deep crimson pupils.

Its eyes carried a deep, domineering air.

What kind of existence was that.

It was like a celestial dog.

Direiji!

A kind of legendary Phantom Beast!

Known for its mystery and ferocity.

It is said that anyone who saw them had no chance of survival.

But!

It saved the falling me.

Perhaps, it was not as terrifying as humans said.

After saving me!

It left that stretch of snowy land.

It seemed to be searching for something.

And I, after leaving behind a word of thanks!

Walked toward the road home.

A few days later!

The blizzard still raged.

The snow covered the ground one meter thick.

Even though I had left the mountain valley.

I seemed to have no ability to survive any longer.

Hunger and cold surrounded me.
