Chapter 4290 Risk Step! "It's time," I said as I checked my seeds one more time before stepping out of the abode with a full stealth. The tigress is out with its cubs. It had been three hours since it had left, and if it had followed the pattern, it had done tens of times, then it shouldn't return for another seven to ten hours. I am not sensing them through my seeds, I had placed a lot the way they had gone means, they had gone quite far. I put the abode back in my core and started to move forward. The cavern is huge, and it is filled with resources. It's very hard not to bring out all my strings and harvest the hell out of it, but I didn't. I only brought out one string and harvested the only resources that I would need. I don't want the Tigress to chase me for it. I have an abode, but I don't want to be dependent on it. It is an option that might not work. Soon, I reached the exit of the cavern and walked out of it after the very faint soul wave returned. I am very careful about them. The monsters here are more sensitive than most people outside. I had sent my soul waves at the tigress, and it had sensed. It couldn't sense this one. So, I am only using them despite them not providing me with the clear data that I liked. I begin to move through the caves with a path flashing in front of me. I still don't know where I am, despite having a pretty big map of this area. Well, there is nothing I could do about it aside from following the plan I had decided on. It's pretty dangerous, but if I am lucky, I might be able to get out here into a known place instantly. Half an hour passed, and I didn't sense any monsters. This is part of the tigress domain, and only daring monsters came. There are a lot of daring monsters. Most of them are weaker and come for the resources, but some come to challenge the tigress. There are a lot of resources here. Even now, the string is out, and I am harvesting the resources, but I am also planting a lot of seeds as I move. Unlike the known areas, here, I do not need to be scared that someone will find me. Here, there are only monsters. Many of these plants will help them tremendously, but I am doing this for me. I plan to return to this place after I break through the mid-prime. If some of these resources are grown by then, it would be pretty amazing. Each of the seeds I am planting is carefully selected. They all are capable of growing in high density energy, but will they grow is hard to say. It will be a success if even 10% of them were able to grow. Hun! I was in my thoughts when I sensed a monster. It's not a weak one, but powerful, a peak Prime, with the power of the laws. Though the tigress could eat it for lunch. The white wolf may be powerful, but not as powerful as the tigress. Its law power pales in comparison to it. However, it wouldn't have any problem to deal with me. It is why I had frozen in place and kept my abode ready. If it senses me, I will hide immediately in my abode. Seconds passed, and the monster got closer, but it didn't seem to sense me. It is more interested in munching on the plans while its senses focused on sensing tigress' overwhelming presence rather than my tiny soul sense. Still, it would be safer. If I hide in my abode, but I did not. I had done anything much other than hide in the past two years, and I don't want to unless I really need to, and right now, I don't need to as the monster didn't discover yet. Minutes passed, and the monster moved slowly as it munched on the plants. I wanted for a few minutes before I took a step forward and then another and another. I am taking a risk, and it is making me feel good. I have been alone for two years, and now I want to do something exciting that pumps my blood. Not much caring if it is suicidal. However, I am still rational and have abode ready to aside. There is also the stealth method, in which I had made a lot of changes. Most importantly, I had gotten so much data about this environment that I was effectively a chameleon. I want to test the limit of that. So, this. A few minutes passed by as I kept the slow steps, when it suddenly stopped. I stopped with it and sensed it sniffing around. I nearly took out my abode but calmed myself. The distance between us is big enough that I would be able to react on time, and I am continuously sending the soul waves. If it moved toward me, I would know. It moved, but not toward me, but toward the opposite side of the cavern. Its speed isn't fast, so it's definitely not tigress, which made me relieved. That monster scares me. I don't want to face it until I am powerful. That will take a lot of time. Once the wolf moved out of my range, I resumed the journey at my normal speed and also started harvesting the resources that I might need. An hour passed and then another. I didn't come across any monster other than a wolf. It's not strange; the tigress controls a massive area and kills anyone within. It will be a few more hours at this speed before I get out of it. Hun! Time passed as I continued moving when I sensed the thing I had been looking for. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞 The jump pad. I am going to step into it. It seemed crazy, but it's not. I do not know where I am and how long it would take me to get out of here. Jump pad is a better way, not necessarily safer as it could throw me into an even more dangerous area, but it is a risk I will have to take.
