Spiritual Energy Revival: Transform Into a Divine Phoenix, Automatically Upgrade

15: Chapter 15 Reporter’s Adventure! Beast TideOn the outskirts of Jianghai City, deep within the towering mountains.

A group of people were scattered throughout the forest in several teams, exploring their surroundings, some of whom were holding cameras and filming as they ventured deeper.

These people were reporters from various media outlets. Ever since the Jianghai City authorities issued an official announcement yesterday regarding the presence of fierce beasts in the outskirts of Jianghai City, they had warned all citizens to be cautious about venturing into the suburbs.

They had even released photos of the carcasses of a large grey wolf and a Siberian Tiger online. What shocked people was that these predators of nature had actually been hunted and killed by a single creature.

This caused the citizens in the city to feel an unknown panic, but it also piqued their curiosity: what kind of beast in nature could take down a pack of wolves and an adult Siberian Tiger?

Consequently, a large number of media reporters in Jianghai City, sensing a scoop, brought their teams to the outskirts.

A female reporter wearing professional attire with a curvaceous figure smiled sweetly, holding a wireless microphone, and spoke slowly to the camera.

”Hello, citizens of Jianghai City. We are currently located in the mountains on the outskirts of Jianghai City. As you can see, the dense forest here is even more lush and flourishing than before. According to analysis from relevant experts, this is due to the influence of energy in the air, which we have named spiritual energy.”

After a brief pause, the camera cut back, and the exquisite-looking female reporter continued, ”I believe all citizens are aware that the Jianghai City authorities issued an urgent notice yesterday warning of powerful beasts roaming these mountains and cautioning against travel. Today, let me, Reporter Wang Xiaoli, take everyone to explore deep into the dense forest to uncover exactly what kind of beast is capable of killing a wolf pack and an adult Siberian Tiger.”

Although there were many media reporters out in Jianghai City this time, Reporter Wang Xiaoli had the most viewers. After all, most humans love beautiful things, and the female reporter before them was beautiful, had a sweet voice, and a gentle temperament—a rare beauty.

Reporter Wang Xiaoli watched the viewer count in the livestream room rising rapidly, feeling excited inside.

This live broadcast report was tied to her performance and bonus. Seeing the viewership of over one hundred thousand still rising rapidly, she was deeply shocked!

”It seems the citizens of Jianghai City are very concerned about this matter. Xiaoli, you must seize this opportunity! A promotion and a raise depend on this!”

After cheering herself on, she led the camera team to explore deeper into the forest. There were also some people nearby holding hunting rifles; they were responsible for protecting their safety.

… The livestream room where Reporter Wang Xiaoli was.

”Our Jianghai City’s nature conservation efforts are truly award-winning! Look at these green mountains and forests; how could you see this around a second or third-tier city!”

”Indeed… and there is a large amount of wildlife living in this jungle.”

”Do you think there really is an unknown beast in these outskirts?”

”There probably is; I don’t believe our Jianghai City authorities would lie to us…”

”That’s right, I just don’t know how fierce this beast is to be able to take down a wolf pack and an adult Siberian Tiger.”

”Look! Xiaoli encountered a leopard!”

”You idiot! That’s a leopard cat!”

Reporter Wang Xiaoli and her camera team stopped because a little fellow had appeared on their path.

It had a coat with camouflaging leopard spots and a cute, big face with long whiskers characteristic of felines. Its blue, water-drop-like pupils looked vigilantly at the group not far away as it stood motionless.

”It’s a leopard!”

Seeing the ”leopard” appear ten-plus meters in front of her, Reporter Wang Xiaoli cried out in shock, her figure instinctively retreating.

The few people who had been on guard and raised their hunting rifles looked ahead, then relaxed and laughed.

”It’s a leopard cat! Don’t worry, as long as we don’t make any extreme movements, this leopard cat won’t attack us!”

This eased the tense hearts of the camera team and Reporter Wang Xiaoli.

”A leopard cat?”

Reporter Wang Xiaoli knew a little about this creature. It was said to be a protected wild animal from abroad. Because of its petite and cute size, appearance far exceeding that of a common house cat, and high intelligence, many people kept them secretly.

However, the habits of leopard cats were not something the average person could accept, and they were extremely aggressive, so a large number of leopard cats were abandoned, which also resulted in a significant number of stray leopard cats in the wild.

This leopard cat was probably illegally traded into the country.

Seeing this petite and cute leopard cat, Reporter Wang Xiaoli really wanted to go up and pet it; it was just too cute.

The camera lens also locked onto the vigilant leopard cat.

Instantly, the livestream chat flooded with, ”awsl!” ”So cute!” ”I really want to pet it…”

Reporter Wang Xiaoli took a deep breath, a sweet smile on her face, ”This is a wild leopard cat, it belongs to a protected species, so don’t harm it, everyone; let it live freely in nature.”

She then turned to look at the leopard cat, and the leopard cat was also looking at the two-legged beasts before it.

Large size… can’t win… looks like the color is very strange… might be poisonous…

The leopard cat, which was thinking, suddenly trembled all over, and a powerful sense of terror rose from its heart.

”Meow!!!”

Whoosh!!!

It let out a piercing screech, then in the blink of an eye, it dashed past the group, turning into a brown blur and disappearing before their eyes.

This gave the entire camera team a fright.

”Whew…”

”Scared me to death, I thought this leopard cat was going to charge over and attack us…”

”I have to say, this leopard cat is fast; I don’t know why it had to leave here so quickly…”

”Yeah, there’s no danger here…”

”Danger?”

Reporter Wang Xiaoli looked in the direction where the leopard cat had disappeared. Unlike her colleagues, she didn’t dismiss it; instead, she faintly felt that there was some kind of danger.

”Screech!!!”

A cry that exploded like thunder and resonated across the skies suddenly came!

Their brains went blank instantly, losing the ability to think. As the sound waves gradually spread into the distance, everyone looked at each other with horror and confusion, not knowing what had happened.

”What kind of creature’s cry is this? It’s so terrifying!”

”Reporter Wang Xiaoli, leave here quickly! There is danger!”

”Holy crap, is there really a powerful beast in the outskirts of Jianghai City?”

”Isn’t that obvious? Reporters, run quickly!”

”Run?”

Just as the livestream chat was in an uproar, the reporters and the surrounding staff also heard the voices of their leaders in their earpieces, telling them to leave the outskirts immediately!

Rumble, rumble…

Just as a large number of personnel were retreating from the forest toward the road, the forest roared, and the earth trembled violently!

It was as if the entire earth had come alive!

”Is this an earthquake?!”

”No! It’s a beast tide!”

”Everyone, quickly find a place to hide!”

”Moo!!!”

”Roar!!!”

”Hiss… Neigh…”

Groups of panicked beasts formed a massive beast tide, charging toward the outside of the forest.

They happened to collide with the retreating crowd, and in an instant, amidst the rumbling sounds, a large number of people were trampled by the beast herd and turned into piles of flesh...
