Sha! Sha! Rustle!
Chirp chirp chirp~
The sounds of birds and insects chirping in the depths of the jungle occasionally drifted from afar.
The sturdy branches and leaves brushed against the Evil Spirit Dog's black fur without leaving a trace. The branches swayed and rustled in its wake.
Tang Zheng, riding on the Evil Spirit Dog's back, held the Bone Chain in one hand and said with a smile, "After raising you for so long, you're finally proving useful."
"Awoo."
The Evil Spirit Dog's voice carried a hint of flattery. As it walked, it subtly adjusted the muscles in its back to make Tang Zheng's ride more comfortable.
The soft forest floor, composed of fallen leaves and weeds, didn't affect the Evil Spirit Dog's speed at all. Instead, it advanced towards the north of the Great Forest with the stability of walking on solid ground.
The abundant supply of flesh and blood from powerful beasts and Demon Creatures had caused the Small Evil Spirit Dog's size to skyrocket. Its standing height was now level with Tang Zheng, and its length had reached over two and a half meters.
It was already comparable to a nearly adult Evil Spirit Dog.
The total amount of food consumed by all the Evil Spirit Dogs in the Great Forest during this period probably didn't contain as much energy as the food consumed by the Small Evil Spirit Dog.
Those powerful beasts and Demon Creatures were not creatures that the Evil Spirit Dog race could hunt.
However!
Tang Zheng suspected that the Small Evil Spirit Dog's rapid growth wasn't just due to its diet. Could it be related to the alchemical potions he had been concocting with the Ogre Gu's blood?
He had force-fed the Small Evil Spirit Dog several bottles to test the potions' effects.
As they continued to advance north, the dark, deep, and oppressive atmosphere of the Tove Great Forest gradually faded.
The light filtering through the dense foliage also brightened.
They had gradually left the depths of the forest and entered the outer regions, but this time, Tang Zheng's direction was the northern part of the Tove Great Forest.
Riding on the Evil Spirit Dog's back, Tang Zheng focused his mind, and his Attribute Table appeared before his eyes.

After harvesting a wave of powerful beasts and Magical Beasts from the Magic Serpent Naga and Forest Sage Hamsuke's territories, he gained nearly 190,000 Experience Points.
The [Valkyrie] class had been completely leveled up.
Currently, his level had reached 32Lv, placing him among the Hero-level powerhouses in the Otherworld.
"As expected of a Special Class, the increase in all basic attributes is truly terrifying." Tang Zheng glanced at the Attribute Table and slightly grinned, "The remaining Experience Points can still be used to level up once. As for leveling up 'Magic Swordsman', there's no rush."
The numerical increase from the Special Class made Tang Zheng somewhat look down on the numerical increase from the Magic Swordsman.
"Currently, I have thirty 'Tier 3 Angel Summoning' scrolls and ten 'Tier 4 Angel Summoning' scrolls."
"The mana in the 'Death Orb' has been fully replenished."
Tang Zheng sat on the Evil Spirit Dog, swaying slightly as it ran through the forest, calculating silently in his mind.
These methods should be enough for now.
With his current level, he could already use the fifth tier (level 29-35) 'Angel Summoning' Magic, but currently, the fourth tier Angel was enough for him.
The scroll costs were also lower.
After all, to create a fifth tier Magic Scroll, he would first need to spend Skill Points to raise 'Papermaking' to the fifth tier.
The Tove Great Forest was on the right track, and Tang Zheng didn't need to waste any more energy on it.
The Magic Serpent Naga had also initially completed its rule over the entire Tove Great Forest, and all that remained was to follow his instructions and breed Goblins.
Ogre Gu and the five ordinary Ogres were handed over to the Magic Serpent Naga to watch over. Tang Zheng didn't plan to kill these high-quality Regeneration Potion raw material providers.
As long as the Magic Serpent Naga wanted to continue ruling the Tove Great Forest and didn't want its position to be threatened, then Ogre Gu in the Magic Serpent Naga's hands would definitely be better taken care of.
"Using barbarians to control barbarians, the experience learned from history is still somewhat useful."
Tang Zheng had no worries about the Magic Serpent Naga. It was smart enough and rational enough, which was why it would weigh the pros and cons.
This was also the reason for choosing it in the first place.
In addition, with the threat of the Curse Power as a facade, the Magic Serpent Naga would not have any thoughts in the short term.
What he was really concerned about now was the issue of breeding Goblins.
"With the Goblin's reproduction and growth speed, with sufficient food, a large number can be bred in two to three months."
"The time isn't too long, I can afford to wait."
Tang Zheng thought silently in his heart.
He raised his head.
The forest ahead began to gradually show light, causing Tang Zheng's eyes to narrow slightly.
"Be careful, the next journey may be more dangerous than the Tove Great Forest." Tang Zheng reached out and patted the Evil Spirit Dog's neck, reminding it in a light tone.
"Awoo." The Evil Spirit Dog let out a low growl, and its running speed slowed down slightly.
...
In the northern part of the Tove Great Forest, south of the Angelicia Mountain Range, there was a central area called the Great Swamp.
This was a lake area of varying sizes formed by the melting snow from the Angelicia Mountain Range and the convergence of countless small, unnamed tributaries.
Because of the natural barrier of the Tove Great Forest, it was an area rarely visited by humans. It was also one of the only two areas, besides the Abelion Hills, where a large number of Demi-humans lived.
The surrounding lush trees gradually began to thin out, and the bushes and weeds also became shorter.
Tang Zheng's eyes showed more anticipation and seriousness.
If the Tove Great Forest was a medium-difficulty map, then the Angelicia Mountain Range area had reached a high level of difficulty.
Not to mention experts above level 30, there were quite a few powerful existences in this mountain range area with levels around 40 or 50.
Whoosh—
The Evil Spirit Dog's figure leaped out of the sparse forest and arrived at the edge of the forest. The cramped vision due to the obstruction of the leaves instantly became wide.
The first thing that came into view.
Was the clear sky without the cover of dense forest and the mountain range in the distance that had become clear.
"Looks like the environment is indeed good, right?"
Tang Zheng looked at the vast Great Swamp in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he spoke softly.
"Roar!"
The Evil Spirit Dog let out a low roar, its green beast eyes looked forward, and it made a sound to warn.
Look!
Ahead of them, on the grassy area at the edge of the Great Swamp, a creature with a cockscomb, resembling a rooster but the size of a swan, raised its head.
Pairs of scarlet eyes stared at Tang Zheng and the Evil Spirit Dog, the sudden intruders.
"Guji!"
Accompanied by a sharp cry.
This large group of Demon Creatures rose from the grass, swarming towards Tang Zheng and the Evil Spirit Dog.
"Completely unseen Demon Creatures, they look a bit like a combination of a rooster and a lizard, I wonder if they have any Special Characteristic?"
At this moment, Tang Zheng also clearly saw the appearance of these Demon Creatures, the front half of their bodies like roosters, and the back half with lizard-like tails.
