Following the standard and usually safe route, the hunters left their village and entered the wilderness.
Snow rose to their knees, the temperature fell sharply, and everywhere they looked was white.
Trees often dropped clumps of snow, and some even bent under the weight.
The group's scout went ahead to find potential tracks.
Shen Taofeng explained, "Claw marks, packed snow, blood, fresh scat, and faint traces of their bestial Qi we're sensitive to…"
Shen Liqian listened attentively, nodding at each detail he learned from Shen Taofeng.
His last words brought a smile to Shen Liqian's lips.
It's believed that humans and beasts are sensitive to each other's Qi because of how different we are… but there's much more to it, at least for us.
Soon, the first beast came into view, innocently skipping across the snow.
It was a Frostwhisker Hare, about as tall as an adult man.
It skipped with so much strength that the snow exploded at its paws.
