With Xing Peng's current strength, he could manage to hold his own against an Earth Level beast for a while, but the sudden appearance of five Earth Level beasts, including mid-Earth Level ones among them, shocked Xing Peng deeply.

Attacked simultaneously by five beasts, he was utterly incapable of contending with them. Faced with such a situation, he had no idea where to run. After a brief pause, his body flashed as he leaped onto a nearby tree, then he made a concerted effort to conceal his presence, hoping to evade the beasts’ pursuit.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The ground shook and roared incessantly. In just a moment, the five heavyweight beasts appeared where Xing Peng was. With their arrival, the dense fog around was significantly dispersed by the strong aura emitted by the beasts.

The five beasts positioned themselves in four directions around the big tree where Xing Peng was. However, they didn't look up at the tree Xing Peng was on. Upon arriving, their gazes almost simultaneously turned to each other, followed by low growls and the gleam of bloodthirst in their eyes.

Beasts, by nature, are not peaceful creatures. With a delicacy before them, their subconscious thought was to eliminate any competitor for food.

Seeing this, Xing Peng was on edge, daring not even to breathe too loudly, his heart pounding rapidly to the point of almost suffocating.

"Damn, what kind of situation is this? I, Xing Peng, am now seen as mere food by these beasts!" Xing Peng mocked himself, trying even harder to conceal his presence. Though aware the beasts could clearly sense him, their attention was on each other for the moment, which somewhat alleviated his immediate crisis.

With the five beasts in front of him, Xing Peng could clearly see their types: aside from the Golden-back Tiger and the giant python, there were two other beasts. One was a massive creature with long fur, a mid-Earth Level beast, the King Kong Gorilla. The other resembled a mammoth, with two golden tusks emitting a cold light and two giant silver wings on its back, a mid-Earth Level beast, the Silver Wing Golden Tusk Elephant.

"Fight, fight as hard as you can, kill one if possible. Only if they are all injured can I have a chance to survive!" Xing Peng shouted in his heart.

"Roar!" As if Xing Peng's prayers had an effect, almost at the moment he thought this, the five beasts raised their heads, and a flash of determination shone in their eyes, then they charged at each other.

"Boom, boom, boom!" The earth trembled and the sky seemed to turn upside down, with the ground cracking open. Any flora struck by the beasts was crushed, scattering in all directions. Any object hit by these flying debris was perforated.

Before the beasts even began to fight, the display of their might was already astonishing. Other beasts that felt the aura of these five Earth Level beasts fled in fear. The aura of Earth Level beasts scared them significantly.

As the focal point of the beasts’ clash, when Xing Peng saw them charging towards him, their aura hit him first, causing his body to tremble violently, as if his veins were about to burst.

"Boom!" Without giving Xing Peng much time to think, the five beasts had already reached the tree. Various attacks were unleashed. The green and white pythons opened their mouths wide, spitting poison at the other three beasts. This poison, turning into a toxic rain upon contact, gave no chance for the Golden-back Tiger and others to dodge.

The green and white pythons, although only initial Earth Level beasts, faced the mid-Earth Level beasts without fear, bolstered by their venom. Their combat effectiveness was astonishing.

The venom of the Green-faced Fang Python landed on the Golden-back Tiger and the other two beasts, emitting a foul smell of corrosion, causing their bodies to burst open in an instant.

True to their ferocious nature, despite being attacked by the venom, the Golden-back Tiger and the Silver Wing Golden Tusk Elephant only roared in pain. With a fierce light in their eyes, they endured the pain and launched fierce attacks on the green and white pythons.

"Slash!"

"Boom!"

"Splash!"

The Golden-back Tiger's massive claws made intimate contact with the white python, and the Silver Wing Golden Tusk Elephant, with wings spread, charged at an accelerated pace, impaling the green python with its golden tusks like a tank. The King Kong Gorilla, swinging its fists the size of millstones, hammered the head of the green python heavily. Simultaneously, it leaped onto the green python's head, riding it and pounding it relentlessly.

The Golden-back Tiger, King Kong Gorilla, and Silver Wing Golden Tusk Elephant momentarily formed a temporary alliance, joining forces against the Green-faced Fang Python, which they perceived as the greatest threat.

While the beasts fought, Xing Peng cleverly used his agility to leap to trees that were not affected by the beasts' battle. He was shocked by their subconscious behavior and their destructive power.

The Silver Wing Golden Tusk Elephant, capable of accelerating with its wings, posed a significant challenge for Xing Peng, whose speed using "Wind Shadow Steps" was barely comparable.

"If I am chased by this Silver Wing Golden Tusk Elephant, escaping would be very difficult!"

After leaping to a tree, Xing Peng did not linger. He kept moving, flashing from tree to tree. No sooner had he left a tree than it would be destroyed by the attacking beasts. Xing Peng realized that despite their battle, the beasts did not entirely disregard him. If he attempted to flee during their attack, he would face their collective pursuit.

Thus, although Xing Peng seemed to have a brief chance at survival, he dared not recklessly escape. Being so close to the beasts, he was not confident he could swiftly flee. Although aware of the beasts' intentions, he could not abandon the idea of escaping.

However, Xing Peng was not only enraged by being driven to such a situation but also filled with a killing intent. Even if he could immediately escape, he would not hastily leave. The intense battle among the beasts likely would not end easily, and there might be a chance for all to be severely injured. If so, Xing Peng would be less fearful and might even gain an advantage.

Earth Level beasts, despite their formidable power and formidable strength, which deterred many from provoking them, possessed inner cores highly coveted by many martial artists. The inner core of an Earth Level beast was considered a rare treasure, often driving small families to bankruptcy.

Furthermore, the Green-faced Fang Python was a rare creature, possessing not only an inner core but also a poison gland, a material sought after by many alchemists. If Xing Peng could obtain this poison gland, he could exchange it for a considerable amount of wealth.

As the saying goes, "Men die for wealth, as birds die for food." Having come to this world, Xing Peng had no choice but to plan for himself. Although money is not omnipotent, being without it is unthinkable.

Faced with such an opportunity, how could Xing Peng pass it up?

If he could obtain the inner core of one of the five Earth Level beasts, he would be able to advance more quickly, enabling him to ascend from the Heavenly Extremity Peak in a much shorter period of time.
