There was silence in the void.
The entire forest seemed to have quietened down at this moment.
Only one or two beastly roars could be heard from afar.
White Tiger drooped his head and squatted on the ground obediently. He looked extremely perturbed.
Bai Ziyue glanced at it and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"
White Tiger's body trembled as he carefully glanced at Bai Ziyue with his bell-like eyes. He spoke in human language and explained in a submissive manner, "The Black-Patterned Leopard and I are mortal enemies.
A hundred years ago, it attacked and occupied my territory, Thousand Peaks Ridge, while I was out hunting.
When I returned, all my descendants and my tribe were slaughtered. Because of this, I had a great battle with it … I was no match for it. "
At this point, its mood was slightly depressed.
As a tiger king, its pride did not allow it to admit its inadequacy.
However, that was the truth.
And it did not dare to hide anything from it.
But soon, its tone became a little high-spirited. It said, "However, I did not lose out.
Later on, I took the opportunity when it was out and went up Thousand Peaks Ridge, slaughtering its tribe.
That day, the sky was dyed in blood and 105 Black Patterned Leopards died … It was really satisfying. "
"My White Tiger Race only had 37, but the Black Patterned Leopard Race had 105. I even profited."
The White Tiger Great Demon was slightly pleased, but its tone turned gloomy in an instant. It continued to explain, "Unfortunately, my strength was still inferior to the Black Patterned Leopard. After dozens of battles, I was always at a disadvantage.
Therefore, I walked out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains and came to the Ten Thousand Demon Forest of the Ancient Desolate Region.
This time, Master wanted to cross the Hundred Thousand Mountains. I … I was indeed selfish. I planned to use Master's hand to eliminate it when I passed by Thousand Peaks Ridge, and end the feud.
However, I did not expect it to discover our tracks in advance and come down the mountain to launch a sneak attack … Furthermore, its strength is much stronger than it was a few decades ago.
In the past, I was barely on par with it, but now, I am far inferior.
Fortunately, Master intervened and we were spared. "
With his perception, Ziyue could clearly sense White Tiger's soul fluctuations. He knew that White Tiger was telling the truth. He nodded in thought and said, "The grudge of slaughtering my entire race is indeed irreconcilable.
However, for every cause, there must be an effect.
Your retribution is mine. "
At this point, Ziyue raised his hand and pressed down with his palm.
Rumble!
When the palm strike landed, White Tiger's body instantly bled. Even with his powerful physique, he could not withstand it and was on the brink of collapse.
"You didn't report what you knew and acted on your own accord. Are you convinced?"
Bai Ziyue asked as he dispersed the palm print with an indifferent gaze.
"Thank you, Master, for sparing my life.
This little demon will not dare to be impudent in the future and will absolutely follow Master's lead. "
Hu Dali didn't dare to complain. He respectfully lowered his head and said.
Ziyue just nodded and then looked at the corpse of the Black Striped Leopard.
The corpse of a God Realm Demonic Beast was really full of treasures.
Its fur, bones, flesh, blood, and internal organs were all useful and valuable.
Not to mention its Demonic Core.
However, Ziyue's main focus was on its Natal Demonic Treasure.
"Star Purple Sand …"
Ziyue was speechless. He didn't expect that these Demonic Beasts would use such a crude method to refine their Natal Demonic Treasures. However, the main material of the Natal Demonic Treasure was so precious that it made him envious.
…
Thousand Peaks Ridge, hundreds of mountains connected by a third grade lower spiritual vein. It was full of spiritual energy and countless resources.
Ziyue followed White Tiger to Thousand Peaks Ridge. He couldn't help but be shocked by the rising spiritual energy fog, the dense forest, and the spiritual flowers and herbs that could be seen everywhere.
What a celestial atmosphere!
Although the spiritual vein of Thousand Peaks Ridge was slightly inferior to the main peak of Chaoyang Sect, the range of its radiation and the spiritual energy from the earth vein were stronger than that of Chaoyang Sect's main peak.
Drip drip drip …
Even the Spiritual Qi contained in the drizzle that fell from the sky could strengthen one's body and prolong one's lifespan if one drank it.
It could also be used as spiritual water for refining elixirs.
"This is really a good place.
It can be used as a celestial sect that can accommodate tens of thousands of cultivators.
It's a pity that it's too deep in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Without a powerful force to suppress and deal with the powerful Demonic Beasts, it can only benefit those Demonic Beasts. "
Ziyue sighed slightly. However, he went straight to the lair of the Black Striped Leopard, the original owner of this place.
Without the protection of the owner, it was naturally up to him to plunder.
Soon, he found his collection inside.
There was a pile of Star Purple Sand ore. After a few hundred pounds, he could extract at least ten pounds of Star Purple Sand. In addition, there were some materials with a certain amount of spiritual energy. There was a half-eaten jade bone and a spiritual material that grew beside it, the Spirit-concealing Flower.
"Star Violetsand is a top grade spiritual material on the same level as the Ten Thousand Year Meteorite Gold. Five kilograms of Star Violetsand and fifty kilograms of that magical treasure are already enough for me to refine my own natal magical treasure.
As for the Spirit-concealing Flower, it's a third-grade treasure. It can also be considered a Heaven and Earth treasure. Unfortunately, it's not fully mature yet. Otherwise, it would have a natural concealment effect. Without cultivation, one would be able to merge with heaven and earth, and their aura would be in harmony with heaven and earth … "
Ziyue looked at it silently and quickly put it away. He didn't even let go of the Spirit-concealing Flower that was not fully mature.
Even if it was not fully mature, it was still a third-grade treasure. It could be used for refining elixirs and was very valuable.
Then, Ziyue used the Big Hole Observation Skill to carefully explore the surrounding treasures and spiritual herbs.
There were too many good things in a third-grade spiritual vein.
Especially in a third-grade spiritual vein like the Thousand Peaks Ridge, which was only occupied by demonic beasts but had not been developed, it contained countless rare treasures and precious spiritual materials.
Demonic beasts did not know how to use these things, but in the hands of human cultivators, they could often shine and play a great role.
Ziyue was not only a second-grade elixir refiner, but he also had many ancient books passed down by Immortal Liujue.
Among them directly included the art of refining weapons, the art of puppetry, the art of making talismans … The use of various aspects required a lot of materials. Naturally, there were many related records.
Ziyue was slightly excited. Walking in the spiritual vein, he soon had a harvest.
Three hundred year old Crescent Moon Grass, seven hundred year old Fengmu Root, and a thousand year old Spirit Ginseng … There was a large forest of second grade Blade Leaf Spirit Bamboo, and one of them had evolved into a third grade Spirit Bamboo due to environmental changes and the grinding of time.
Ziyue did not stand on ceremony. He immediately took out the black divine saber and cut off seven sections of it.
The seven-section bamboo was a third-grade spiritual material, but it was also a top refining material. After being refined by a third-grade weapon refiner, it could even be refined into a set of Dharma treasures.
…
In the Thousand Peaks Ridge, Ziyue stayed for three days.
After three days of plundering, he could be said to have returned with a fruitful harvest.
He had harvested more than a hundred second-grade spiritual herbs, not to mention the third-grade spiritual herbs and third-grade spiritual items that he occasionally found.
After crossing the Thousand Peaks Ridge, he would enter the territory of another Golden Core realm Demon Lord, the Silver Snake Demon Lord.
When the White Tiger Great Demon was hurrying, he became much more careful.
On the other hand, Ziyue had a certain understanding of the dangers of the Hundred Thousand Mountains after his previous analysis.
In addition, his strength gave him great confidence, so he had no scruples.
In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there were many God realm demons, but most of them were Qi Refinement realm demons and Spirit Channeling realm demons.
In order to increase his foundation, Ziyue naturally would not give up on cultivating the various divine powers.
Occasionally, he would find a group of demon beasts to test it out.
The Minor Spirit Restriction Technique sealed their innate demonic skills, and the Seven-colored Calamity Overcoming Spirit Light defended against their many attacks. Then, with the help of the Ten Thousand Flames Furnace, he killed them one by one.
Ziyue's cultivation progress had been slowly increasing because of the many sparring partners.
And what was increasing was the amount of Ziyue's soul power.
In just a few days, his soul power had increased to more than three million, and there were no signs of it stopping.
Among a group of demon monkeys, Ziyue used the Minor Spirit Restriction Technique to seal the Dharma spell of a late-stage Spirit Channeling realm Monkey King. Then, he struck out with the sword qi of the Twenty-three Storey Building. Like a sharp blade, it tore open bloody wounds on the monkey's body.
Then, another Ten Thousand Flames Furnace was swung out. The three-colored spiritual fire burned in the Ten Thousand Flames Furnace, covering the monkey completely.
Boom!
The Monkey King was incomparably violent. It quickly broke free from the Dharma spell and let out a summoning cry.
All of a sudden, the Demon Monkeys that covered the mountains and plains charged at Bai Ziyue one after another.
In response, Ziyue's expression was calm. With the Earth Shrinking Technique, his speed was like a stream of light, exceeding the limits of the demon monkeys' imagination. It could be said to be a dimensionality reduction attack.
Ziyue surrounded all the demon monkeys by himself and continuously cast one Dharma spell after another.
Pfff, pfff, pfff …
Streaks of sword qi rained down.
Suddenly, Ziyue's heart relaxed. He felt that the power of the sword qi he released had suddenly increased by a level, and it easily killed several Spirit Channeling realm demon monkeys.
Moreover, when he controlled the sword qi, he could clearly feel that there was an additional spirituality in it. He could control it as he wished in the void.
Ziyue's face immediately revealed a trace of a smile.
The sword qi of the Twenty-three Storey Building had been initiated!
He had already cultivated this Dharma spell to 99% completion. Now that he had been initiated, it seemed to be a matter of course.
Once the sword qi of the Twenty-three Storey Building had been initiated, Ziyue quickly stopped using this Dharma spell. Instead, he focused more on the Rainbow Spirit Light, the Minor Spirit Restriction Technique, and the Ten Thousand Flames Furnace.
In particular, the Rainbow Spirit Light was a defensive Dharma spell that could make up for Ziyue's lack of defense, so he valued it even more.
The attacks that he had deliberately chosen landed on the Seven-colored Calamity Averting Spirit Light, causing loud bangs to ring out.
Bai Ziyue, on the other hand, used the feedback from the attacks to constantly perfect this divine ability. He slowly increased the cultivation speed of this divine ability and strengthened its defensive capabilities.
