In this position, one must take care of matters.
Even though Feng Feiyun didn't want to be the Young Lord of the Feng or work for Feng Mo, there were still some things that had to be done when his family was still here.
In order to form an alliance with the Destruction Cave, he must do a good job.
The Jiluo Beast Mountain Range was located ten thousand miles to the east of the capital. This place was long and narrow, spanning for several thousand miles. It was like a desolate forest with many deep valleys and poisonous swamps. Because of this harsh environment, many strange beasts gathered here. Some of them were strong enough to fight against half-step Giants.
There were even spirit beasts with battle prowess comparable to the Giant level!
The Beiming naturally couldn't go back to the capital from the south after kidnapping Xiaoxiang. If they took a detour from the east, then there would be three paths. The furthest and most dangerous one would be the Jiluo Beast Mountain Range.
When Feng Feiyun arrived at the mountain range, it was already the morning of the second day.
The mountain was as tranquil as a virgin in a bridal chamber.
Feng Feiyun stood on a peak amidst the chilling wind and snow. Vultures spanning for dozens of meters flew across the sky while issuing ear-piercing screeches. However, they didn't dare to approach the youth standing on top of the mountain. He was like a sword stuck in the ground.
Feng Feiyun's eyes shot out two fiery rays. He could see all the grass and trees within a thousand miles. He saw many different kinds of strange beasts in the mountain range. A few of them had monstrous auras with auspicious clouds floating above them. One glance was enough to tell that these were beasts that had cultivated for nearly one thousand years.
"They shouldn't be using this path … Oh?" The light in Feng Feiyun's eyes dimmed as he released his powerful divine intent towards the east. He sensed a group crossing the mountain range from the distance.
The situation had changed. The Beiming Tower didn't go through the Grand Canyon of Eastern Woods and instead took a detour.
Early in the morning, the mountain range was shrouded in mist and the air was cold. Only the chirping of birds could be heard from the white forest. Suddenly, the sound of carriages moving broke the silence of the morning.
A group of about one hundred soldiers from the Shenwu Army quickly marched along the path and guarded a ten-meter-tall bronze chariot in the center. There was a large black flag on the chariot with the word "Explode" embroidered with golden threads.
This was the Furious Marquis Faction's army. Any cultivator who saw the flag on the chariot would retreat.
The marquis was under the Grand Chancellor's command. His military power was enough to destroy several great sects.
"Brother Beiming, why do we have to take a detour? If we went through the Grand Canyon of Eastern Woods, we would have entered the eastern gate by now."
Tang Ao is wearing a black battle armor, riding on a strange beast's back. He and a tall and mighty man are walking at the front to clear the path.
Although Tang Ao was the Young Marquis of the Furious Marquis Faction with a high status, the man walking next to him had a great background as well. He was one of the four strongest youths of the Beiming Clan, known as the Beiming Four Young Masters.
Beiming Huaji!
Beiming Que, the one who self-detonated on Peach Mountain, was also one of them.
Huaji's expression was solemn with a bright glimmer in his eyes. He stood on the bull's head and said: "This matter is of great importance, we can't afford any mistakes.
Even though the mountain range is far and dangerous, we can avoid Dongfang Jingshui's pursuit this way. "
"Dongfang Jingshui is indeed powerful. No wonder he's ranked third on the Upper Historical Geniuses List. He managed to stop seven groups of people by himself. Half of the evil experts in the Dark Domain died in his hands."
Tang Ao recalled the battle at the base of Faith Mountain and felt a chill in his heart. Kings of the younger generation were truly terrifying.
"Secondly, the Furious Marquis Faction's army is stationed in the mountain range. We can use this as a cover and follow the army back to the capital."
Beiming Huaji's cold eyes slightly glanced at the huge chariot behind him. This time, he didn't fail his mission. He had captured this person and brought him back to the clan. He would definitely be rewarded handsomely, maybe even a third rank spirit pill.
The one hundred or so soldiers behind him naturally weren't from the real army. They all had powerful auras with sharp glints in their eyes. More than half of them were experts from the Dark Realm while the rest were chosen from the Beiming Clan's death squads.
This group of soldiers passed through the Jiluo Beast Mountain Range. Their chariots left two deep marks on the ancient path.
Feng Feiyun came out of the white mist and stood in the middle of the path. He looked at the group and murmured: "So many experts protecting them, this is going to be a bit troublesome. I'll follow them and find a chance to attack."
Feng Feiyun turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared into the white mist.
In front of them were two towering peaks, like two giants standing there. After passing through these two peaks, they would be considered to have walked out of the Jiro Beast Mountain Range.
"Strange, why haven't Beiming Que's group arrived yet?" Huaji pulled the chain in his hand to stop his bull.
The entire Shenwu Army stopped.
"Boom!"
At this time, a loud explosion came from the mountains, followed by the roars of strange beasts.
"Rumble!"
Following that, the ground began to shake, producing deafening hoofbeats. The roars of the beasts became even more concentrated, as if the roars of exotic beasts were coming from all directions.
The atmosphere became somber.
"Not good, it's a group of Golden Lions, everyone, be on guard!"
Huaji's expression slightly changed as he shouted. All the soldiers formed a circle and formed a defensive formation around the bronze chariot.
The most frightening thing about passing through the mountain range was being attacked by strange beasts.
The journey was peaceful, but who would have thought that they would be attacked by a group of strange beasts just as they were about to leave the mountain range?
A total of dozens of Golden Lion Beasts rushed out from between the two mountains. Each Golden Lion Beast was four to five meters tall and around seven meters long. Their bodies were like elephants, and their four legs covered in golden fur were as thick as the mouth of a plate. Their bodies shone with a dazzling golden light.
These lions had cultivated for six to seven hundred years and had a certain level of intelligence. They only needed to open their mouths to spit out strands of fire.
"Strange. This is the edge of Jiro Exotic Beast Mountain Range. Why are there so many powerful Golden Lion beasts gathered here?" Tang Ao had a bad feeling.
These lions were naturally driven here by Feng Feiyun. Feng Feiyun had the Myriad Beast Physique with more than eight thousand beast souls. Although he hadn't fully cultivated the physique, it wasn't difficult for him to control these beasts that had cultivated for six to seven hundred years.
"Rawrr!" A loud lion roar came from the mountains.
The dozens of lions roared at the same time and spat out a large wave of golden flames. Then, they attacked the Shenwu Army in the center.
Of course, these cultivators weren't from the real Shenwu Army. They were all powerful cultivators, but they were still a bit flustered against the charge of dozens of Golden Lions.
"Bam!"
Beiming Huaji unleashed a gigantic fist with a diameter of three meters, blowing away a six-hundred-year Golden Lion. Its abdomen became a bloody mess, its internal organs crushed by the fist's energy, turning into meat paste.
"Everyone, stay in formation and protect the chariot. Someone will come to help us soon."
Tang Ao took out a piece of white Divine Metal and directly smashed the head of a Golden Lion. Golden blood sprayed out, arousing the ferocity of the other Golden Lions, causing them to attack even more ferociously.
"Pluff!"
A heretical expert wearing the armor of the Shenwu Army was pushed to the ground by a Golden Lion that had cultivated for seven hundred years. The lion tore him in half with its claws and swallowed him.
Feng Feiyun stood on top of the mountain and watched all of this. He let out a whistle that echoed throughout the mountain range.
This whistle seemed to carry a demonic nature. Any beast that heard it would rush over, causing the entire mountain range to be thrown into chaos. It was as if there was a beast tide attacking Beiming Huaji and Tang Ao's group.
"Not good, there are more and more beasts." Tang Ao was drowned by an ocean of beasts. He was surrounded by dozens of beasts and couldn't kill them all.
More than twenty of the cultivators disguised as the Shenwu Army had lost their lives and became food for the beasts. The entire formation had been breached. Some beasts directly charged at the chariots in the center, creating a rumbling sound.
It was time!
"Whoosh!"
Feng Feiyun directly flew down from the peak and stood on top of the chariot. A powerful shockwave surged from his body and directly blew away more than ten beasts and eight experts.
Tang Ao and Beiming Huaji immediately noticed the sudden appearance of Feng Feiyun.
Huaji shouted: "Who is it?!"
"You again!" Tang Ao's expression was unfriendly.
Feng Feiyun smiled and gently rolled up his sleeves: "Young Marquis, we meet again."
Tang Ao was defeated by Feng Feiyun in one move on the Ask Buddha Platform. Now that he knew that Feng Feiyun was a Grand Historical Genius, he was quite wary. However, Beiming Huaji didn't know this. He raised his spear and directly attacked.
Huaji's cultivation was about the same as Beiming Que's, at second-level Heaven's Mandate. The violet energy in his body surged like a river from his dantian to his arm and into the spear.
"Boom!"
A purple cloud flew out from the tip of the spear, causing the air to slightly distort.
Feng Feiyun hovered in the air with six diagrams floating above his palm. The Infinite Spirit Ring surged out with a majestic aura. He slammed down and shattered the spear in Huaji's hand along with the purple cloud.
