Chapter 1041 1034: Gains Along the Journey
Screech!
The Fire Griffin galloped through the air, letting out a loud, resonant eagle's call, then headed towards the direction of the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range.
Following behind the Fire Griffin, the Black Feathered Eagles also flapped their wings, accompanying the griffin and carrying the cultivators away.
The Celestial Cyan Mountain Range is a branch of the great Celestial Demon Mountain Range that spans across the entire Celestial South Domain.
However, even though it's just a branch, the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range is vast and sprawling, with dense forests and scattered demon beast tribes, and in its depths, even powerful Demon Kings of the Demon King Realm lurk.
Though Wind Ridge Town is relatively close to the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range, and cultivators enter and exit it daily, their exploration is limited by their cultivation, barely scratching the surface.
Thus, when Zhuo Bufan found a valley with a Wind Thunder Fruit tree laden with fruits, it was not unusual.
For every day, cultivators make new discoveries and gain opportunities, rapidly progressing in their cultivation, while some encounter powerful demon beasts and perish.
A quarter of an hour later, the vast and rolling mountain range became clearly visible in Qin Yang's sight.
This continuous mountain range, seemingly endless, is indeed the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range, a branch of the Celestial Demon Mountain Range.
Though still somewhat distant, the roars of beasts could already be heard, coming from near and far within the mountains.
Flap~! Flap~!
Led by the Fire Griffin, a team of flying mounts halted at the outermost edge of the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range.
In Qin Yang's view, he could occasionally see cultivators flying in the sky and their flying mounts, landing at the outskirts of the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range instead of flying directly into it.
Within the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range, there are numerous demon beasts, including many flying demon beasts.
These flying demon beasts are very territorial; any other flying demon beasts or human cultivators entering would certainly be attacked by one of the demon beast groups.
Moreover, flying through the sky easily makes one a target for those of the Demon General Level or even Commander Level demon beasts.
Thus, when cultivators come to the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range to hunt demon beasts, they generally choose to stop at the edges and then proceed inward.
Of course, some powerful Immortal Venerable Realm experts might choose to fly some distance into the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range.
After the Fire Griffin and Black Feathered Eagle stopped, Qin Yang and the other cultivators, around sixty of them, swiftly dismounted from the flying mounts.
Seeing such a large party, some cultivators on the outskirts cast their gaze towards them but fell silent or didn't inquire further upon noticing the leader was an Immortal Venerable Realm expert.
"So this is the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range?"
Qin Yang gazed intently at the vast forested mountain range, a gleam in his eyes; it had been a long time since he last fought with demon beasts.
"Fellow Daoists, no need for more words; let's enter the mountain."
Zhuo Bufan addressed the cultivators behind him.
"Yes, Lord."
The cultivators replied in unison.
Those cultivators with demon beast mounts summoned their mounts from their storage bags, like Zhuoyue, who once again proudly summoned the Giant-toothed Tiger.
Swish, swish, swish!
With Zhuo Bufan leading, the cultivators quickly advanced into the deep mountains.
Due to the large number of people in this group and the extraordinary aura they exuded, they traveled over a hundred miles and only encountered attacks from some hidden venomous snakes and insects.
"Everyone, be cautious from here on; we may encounter some demon beast groups or even attacks from powerful demon beasts."
Zhuo Bufan looked at the cultivators behind him and said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, the cultivators nodded; countless cultivators fall in the Celestial Cyan Mountain Range each year, but the deeper one goes, the more opportunities there are, and the more spirit herbs and spirit fruit there will be.
Especially in the gathering place of a particular demon beast group, there is usually a sizable distribution of spirit fruit or herbs conducive to that group's growth.
After advancing through the forest for several miles, the cultivators encountered a group of Red Flame Snakes.
Hiss, hiss, hiss~!
Hundreds of Red Flame Snakes spewed poisonous flames, encircling the cultivators.
The leading Red Flame Snake King, at the high stage of the Demon General Level, was a hundred meters long, as thick as a barrel, and its poisonous flames engulfed the cultivators.
The cultivators quickly circulated their spiritual power, forming a Spiritual Power Shield to resist the poisonous flames.
"Hmph, ignorant beast!"
Zhuo Bufan snorted coldly, releasing a surge of spiritual power from within, immediately striking down the Red Flame Snake King with one palm.
"Kill!"
Amidst the roars, the cultivators charged forward to attack the remaining Red Flame Snakes.
After a fierce battle lasting for over ten minutes, they managed to slay half of the Red Flame Snakes, while the other half scattered and fled. Among the cultivators, two at the Immortal Master Realm were bitten by the Red Flame Snakes' poison and died with wounds bleeding on their necks.
Next, these cultivators stepped forward and began dissecting the Red Flame Snakes.
The most important elements of a Red Flame Snake are its snake gall, snake skin, and crystal core. Given the large number of Red Flame Snakes, everyone began dissecting the ones they had slain, preventing much competition.
"Brother Qin, your strength is not weak; I thought I'd have to protect you."
The chubby man said, while dissecting a Red Flame Snake, looking at Qin Yang.
At this moment, the aura Qin Yang revealed was at the peak of the Immortal Master Realm, just like the chubby man's.
However, watching Qin Yang remain calm and composed even when facing an initial stage Demon General Level Red Flame Snake surprised the chubby man, especially since Qin Yang looked younger than him.
"Heh heh, thank you for your kindness, Brother Bai; we should look out for each other."
Qin Yang replied with a smile, thinking the chubby man was a person worth befriending.
After dealing with the Red Flame Snake group, the cultivators soon found the nest of the Red Flame Snakes, discovering plenty of Red Flame Grass and splitting it among themselves.
After dividing the crystal cores, snake skins, snake galls, and Red Flame Grass from the Red Flame Snakes, the cultivators were all full of joy.
If they had come alone, it would have been impossible to have such abundant gains; even slaying a few Red Flame Snakes would have been fortunate, let alone delving into the serpent's lair to obtain Red Flame Grass.
Among the hundreds of Red Flame Grass, Zhuo Bufan surprisingly didn't take a single one, a gesture that immediately won the goodwill of the cultivators.
"Father, though this Red Flame Grass is only Second Grade, it's not easily found. It's best for refining Fire Attribute Antitoxic Pills; why didn't you take any?"
On the Giant-toothed Tiger, seeing the cultivators joyfully dividing the Red Flame Grass, the well-groomed Zhuoyue furrowed his brows and communicated with Zhuo Bufan.
Knowing that Zhuo Bufan, as an Immortal Venerable Realm expert, killed the Red Flame Snake King with one palm, even if he had taken half of the Red Flame Grass, no one would have complained.
"Don't worry, Yue'Er; whatever they obtain will ultimately belong to my Lord's Mansion."
Zhuo Bufan, with his blue eyes, looked at the joyful cultivators and stroked his purple beard, a cold smile hidden deep in his eyes as he communicated.
