ring remnants, resentful spirits, no one could truly understand the dragon soul as well as Lu Xiaoteng.Although Lu Xiaotian didn't realize this, it didn't affect Lu Xiaotian's almost innate advantage...The massive blue wolf scared off its fellow, and to prevent the prey from being stolen, it sped towards Lu Xiaottian first.

Ah...

Lu Xia Tian took off his backpack and screamed, throwing the axe in his hand at Qing Lang. Taking advantage of Qing Lang's dodging, he sprinted across the snow with all his might. Qing Lang only dodged slightly before speeding up to chase after him again. The distance between the man and the beast rapidly narrowed.

Having escaped to a small knoll, Lu Xia Tian stumbled and fell from the slope, rolling all the way down. The blue wolf behind him let out a low growl and pounced.

Lu XiaTian, terrified, almost dared not look at this horrifying scene.

“Roar!” A much more powerful roar shook Lu Xia Tian almost dizzy, in his disbelief, a giant black bear nearly ten feet tall roared and ran toward him, the icy ground trembled under the body of this over two thousand pound behemoth. The black bear displayed an agility and speed that was completely out of proportion to its size.

The ferocious wolf, which had been menacing moments ago, howled in agony as it was effortlessly swatted away by the bear's massive paw. The over a hundred-pound wolf let out a shrill scream before crashing into a tree trunk over twenty feet away. The thick trunk, larger than a man's waist, shuddered violently from the impact. The wolf lay on the ground like a lifeless thing, motionless.

Another blue wolf had already been scared off and disappeared without a trace.

Lu Xia Tian was so surprised that he even forgot the pain from his recent fall. He stared at the furry, massive bear face approaching him. As the black bear breathed, its heavy, foul stench hit Lu Xia Tian's face, making him unable to move a muscle.

At that very moment, a clear and sharp flute sound rose. The enormous black bear let out a soft growl, retracted its head, abandoned Xiaotian after, and trotted docilely towards the direction the flute came from.

Next, Lu Xia Tian saw a figure wearing a black robe, only revealing a pale, wrinkled face suddenly appear in the snow. With a wide sleeve swish, a gust of wind blew towards him. Before Lu Xia Tian could react, he fainted.

The old man in black robes didn't seem to move, yet in a few steps, he crossed the distance of several dozen feet and came before Lu Xiaitian. He took out a colorless and transparent crystal disc, grasped Lu Xiaitian's hand, and placed it on top of the disc. The crystal disc immediately turned crimson, azure, green, gold, and yellow. Five colors whirled around each other, changing constantly, yet never stopping.

"It seems there's a spiritual root, otherwise this spirit testing disk wouldn't activate. It just fluctuates unpredictably, what kind of spiritual root is this Well, finding someone with a spiritual root in the mundane North Liang Kingdom is quite difficult. With no one usable at hand, I have to settle for now."

The black-robed elder's face was uncertain, he had walked the cultivation world for so many years, but this was the first time he encountered a spirit testing disc that couldn't test out the spiritual roots. After a while, the black-robed elder muttered a life-giving spell in his mouth. The black bear roared and bowed its head to Lu Xia Tian, then strode forward with the black-robed elder. The black-robed elder only took light steps, but he always stayed ahead of the galloping black bear, the forest retreating behind them...

After several hours, deep within the Mang Mountains hundreds of miles from the Lei Dao Sect, a valley was shrouded in white mist. The valley echoed with tiger roars and monkey screeches.

At the mouth of the valley, three shadowy figures could be seen. "Those scoundrels from Lingxiao Palace are relentless in their pursuit. We fled all the way to Beiliang Kingdom before finally shaking them off. If these mad dogs keep chasing us, we may have nowhere left to hide."

A burly man, full of facial hair, was shirtless even in the midst of winter, revealing his tanned upper body and well-defined muscles. A bronze battle axe hung from his hand as he spoke in a deep voice.

“The Lingxiao Palace has too much power, it’s all because of the Blood Dwarf. If it weren’t for your clumsy hands and feet, how could you have led the people of the Lingxiao Palace to find a clue We’ve been living like bereaved dogs for several years! Now the spirit stones are almost running out. Are we going to live like ordinary people from now on, eating grains” The woman in the green dress with a long scar on her face and a plump figure said in a reproachful tone.

"How can you blame me The cultivators of Lingxiao Palace are indeed formidable. If it weren't for your murderous greed, there wouldn't have been these subsequent events," the Blood Dwarf said with a sneer. He was a man dressed in red, no bigger than an eight or nine-year-old child, yet over forty years old. A blue mustache adorned his chin. Hearing the green-clad woman's words, he continued, "Furthermore, if it weren't for the Lingxiao Palace disciples' coercion, we wouldn't have stumbled upon this remote and secluded place, discovering such a mysterious canyon. With such abundant spiritual energy, this place must be a treasure trove."

"Whether it's a treasure trove or a dangerous place, it's too early to say. This canyon is rather peculiar. White mist constantly shrouds the valley and there seems to be a restriction inside that blocks divine senses. When we cultivators enter it, we become indistinguishable from ordinary people. If we encounter demonic beasts in the valley, our situation could be extremely perilous." The bearded man said solemnly.

The woman in the green skirt impatiently said, "Our spirit stones and pills are almost used up. If we can't replenish some spiritual objects, what will we do later Even if it's dangerous inside, we might have to go in and take a look. It might even be a treasure trove. Old Monster Geng has been gone for several days now. If he doesn't come back, I'll have to go in myself."

“Well then, you may venture in and see for yourselves.” An aged, ominous voice echoed out, followed by the dull thud of a massive black bear's paws hitting the ground.

The girl in the green skirt's face changed upon hearing this, then she put on a forced smile and said, "Look at how Daoist Geng puts it! This is just a jest from me. This canyon is rather peculiar. Among us four, Daoist Geng has the highest cultivation and is skilled in alchemy. Without Daoist Geng, none of us would be capable of venturing through this strange canyon."

"Old friend Geng, you're back! I waited quite a while for you."

Lu Xia Tian was half asleep when he heard a hearty laugh, "Hey, what are you doing bringing back a little kid"

"You're tall, but you lack courage. We fled all the way to Beiliang Kingdom, and your friend Geng's apprentice couldn't escape in time. He was killed by disciples of Lingxiao Palace, so naturally we need to find a new one. " The dwarf man smiled gleefully, "But Geng's friend has found a new apprentice now. Shouldn't we choose a day to investigate the valley"

"That's right, Blood Dwarf hit the nail on the head. Friend Geng, although this canyon is a bit dangerous, it could very well be a treasure trove. What's even more rare is that there aren't any other cultivators here yet. This is truly a gift from heaven."

Xue Zhu-ru and the Bearded One nodded in agreement. For treasure hunters like them, the greatest enemies were not usually the monsters, mechanisms, or traps within the spiritual realms, but rather other treasure hunters with wicked intentions. Each of them alone had claimed the lives of over ten other cultivators. Most wandering cultivators who lived as long as they did and traveled far and wide were ruthless and decisive in their actions.gratulatory gift: one jar of Qing Ming juice and three Shui Yue Immortal Stones!"“A three-foot-tall Lei Xue coral Wow, this Hai Shi Yao must have bled a lot.”"The value of Shuiyue Xian Shi is not infe...
