Chapter 1602 Sword Head Serpent’s Territory

"A place where Primals and Predators live together? We call those 'territories' here. For example, we're currently in the Sword Head Serpent's territory." Yingzi said.

Yuan surveyed their surroundings with a raised eyebrow and further clarified, "There's been a slight misunderstanding. Cities also have buildings for dwelling and marketplaces where you can buy or sell things."

"There's no place like that in the Primal Expanse. While the idea of buying and selling exists, it's rarely practiced. Most Predators engage in trade, but for everyone else, acquisition typically involves taking directly from others." Yingzi said.

In the Primal Expanse, the saying 'the strong prey on the weak' was not just a principle but a stark reality. Here, if someone desired something, they simply took it by force. And since trading was the norm, there was no need for currencies in this world.

Yuan pondered for a moment before asking, "Then, do you know a way to leave this place?"

"I don't understand."

"I am trying to return to my own world," he clarified. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}

"I am not sure that's even possible." Yingzi shook her head.

"There has to be a way. In my world, we have these specific areas where Magical Beasts—Primals spawn endlessly, and I believe they came from this world. The fact that I managed to travel to this world proves that our worlds are connected in some way."

"Even if you say that, I have no clue. However, I may know someone who does." "Can you take me to them?"

"In exchange for something."

"What do you want?"

"Something from your world."

"Do you have anything specific in mind?" Yuan asked.

"No, not really."

Yuan pondered for a moment before retrieving several things from his spatial ring.

The first item was a spirit stone. He didn't know if they existed in the Primal Expanse and wanted to find out. He also took out several Divine-grade treasures and some random pills. Lastly, he took out some food—mostly meat skewers that he had saved up for occasions.

"Is there anything you want?" Yingzi inspected all of the items with great interest. Her eyes were essentially sparkling with excitement.

"What is this?" Yingzi pointed to the spirit stone and asked.

"It's a spirit stone. We, humans, use it to cultivate by absorbing the spiritual energy contained inside. We also use it as a currency to buy things."

"What about these things? They smell very nice." Yingzi pointed to the meat skewers next.

"They're meat skewers. This one is made from beef. This one is from chicken. This one is made from lamb."

Yingzi's gaze danced back and forth between the spirit stone and meat skewers without giving the treasures even a single glance. After a moment of pondering, she pointed to the meat skewers and said, "I want these."

The elephant-like Primal's reaction to Yingzi was puzzling, as she wasn't exuding any presence or aura of danger that could explain why such a formidable creature would flee from her. This hinted at unseen powers within Yingzi that Yuan did not yet comprehend.

The next several Primals that appeared reacted similarly to the first. Each time their gaze landed on Yingzi, they displayed an intense reaction of fear, quickly turning and fleeing as if their lives depended on it. As for Yingzi, she didn't even bother looking at the Primals that showed up and continued to enjoy the skewers in her grasp at her own place.

Many minutes later, when Yingzi reached her last skewer, Yuan suddenly sensed an unfathomable presence appear, and it was quickly approaching them.

'What a powerful presence! This Primal must be at a level that rivals an Immortal!' Yuan cried inwardly.

When he turned to investigate the presence, he saw a massive black snake, even larger than the elephant, with a horn-shaped like a sword protruding from its head.

"Is that the Sword Head Serpent?" Yuan asked Yingzi.

"Looks like it," she calmly confirmed.

"Will you be fine against it?"

"..."

Yingzi didn't respond, as she was busy chewing the meat in her mouth.

The Sword Head Serpent arrived shortly later. However, unlike the other Primals, it did not immediately run away after seeing Yingzi. Although it still showed fear in its gaze, it refused to run away for some reason.
