I hope everyone will support by subscribing to give the little dragon the most basic support. Luo Ying Peak is not the highest peak in Tian Mountain, but rather it lies on the west side of the main peak because its shape resembles a golden eagle crouching down, hence the name.
Looking east from Luo Ying Peak towards the tallest peak, through the swirling clouds, one can vaguely see layers upon layers of grand and magnificent pavilions.
This feeling is not inferior to that of Donghai Dragon Palace.
"These are the legacies left behind by several cultivation sects collectively ascending hundreds of years ago. However, they're only empty shells as all treasures and divine techniques were taken away," Su Han casually said while looking in that direction.
Hao Ren nodded his head and focused on those grand halls and towers, imagining the prosperity of these ancient cultivation sects.
Human cultivators originally had the advantages of timing, geographical location, and manpower. But due to a meaningless war within the cultivation world, they suffered heavy losses and ended up losing control of the entire continent to dragons, while back then the dragon clans were only occupying their own territories in the four seas with other lineages being mostly scattered individuals without forming large groups.
However, from Su Han's expression, it seems she does not want to elaborate on these matters. Human cultivators are a dog-eat-dog world where killing and stealing treasures is common; thus, widespread conflict due to some disputes followed by overall decline was foreseeable.
The establishment of the Inspector System aims to prevent such situations from recurring. And it's because of this that dragons have lived peacefully for several hundred years, respecting each other’s territories and resources while gradually integrating into human society.
Clang!
Right when Su Han and Hao Ren arrived at Luo Ying Peak, two long spears crossed to block their path.
"Restricted area beyond this point. No unauthorized personnel allowed," said the two guards dressed in green robes.
"I came here to pick snow lotus, which I've already informed your senior elder about," Su Han replied.
"We still need confirmation of that," one guard responded.
Slap!
Su Han struck one guard with a palm, instantly rendering him unconscious. The other attempted to shout but was similarly knocked out by her hand.
"I don't want to explain to them. You go ahead and take care of your business. Only cultivators below the Earth level or Core Formation stage can enter this cave system. I'll wait for you outside," Su Han found a clean stone, sat cross-legged on it, and said calmly.
Hao Ren glanced at the two unconscious guards by the cave entrance, gradually understanding how Su Han operates.
Francois.
He stepped over the bodies of the two guards and entered the cave marked with the word "Restricted Area."
A very powerful spiritual energy came sweeping towards him, almost making郝仁 lose his footing. However, since 郝仁 was not a formidable opponent, this thick spiritual energy did not make much of a move upon passing through his body.
This should be another complex array formation. Perhaps the former Tianshan Sect was worried about others stealing Snow Lotus flowers, so they specially set it up. If one were an expert, they wouldn't be able to enter this cave; if one were not powerful enough, there would be no way for them to sneak past all defenses and approach the entrance.
At first glance inside the cave, there was nothing unusual. It seemed like a common cavern with dark streams of water dripping within. There were also unknown beams of light coming from somewhere in the darkness, illuminating parts of the cavern.
Stepping on rocks bit by bit, 郝仁 ventured further inward. This was his first time entering such an alleged immortal dwelling, so he was cautious rather than curious.
The cave was deep and, the deeper they went, the harder it became to find a direction. The things 郝仁 could use were one, the Water-Repelling Pearl; two, the necklace of the芥子空間 (Infinite Pocket Space); and three, his Sword Light Shadow Decision.
He cast out a faint sword light to illuminate the path ahead, leaped several steps forward along protruding rocks, and ventured even deeper into the cave.
Zhao Yanzi still wanted to follow him over. Thinking back now, 郝仁 realized that in this pitch-black environment, it was already impressive enough for her to move her feet and venture inward with him.
In the black-and-white monochrome cavern, colorful little flowers gradually appeared. Getting closer to inspect them, 郝仁 found they were immature Seven-Color Snow Lotus flowers, only as big as fingernails.
For ordinary people, these Snow Lotuses are top-grade medicinal herbs; however, for cultivation practitioners' alchemy techniques, there's virtually no use in them.
Han Ren did not want to damage these precious Snow Lotus flowers. Besides, he was not a greedy person either, so after taking a brief look, he continued moving forward.
The deeper they went, the more mature Snow Lotus plants they found. However, judging from their buds just about to bloom, all of them were still immature.
Han Ren had seen those two Snow Lotus flowers Su Han gave him and roughly knew how a thousand-year-old Snow Lotus would look like; therefore, he did not uproot any of these immature Snow Lotus plants but continued moving forward.
But if Zhao Yanzi were following, she might have pulled out a couple to hide elsewhere. Seeing treasures, Zhao Yanzi has a bit of greed in her heart, which is common for young girls.
Han Ren did not know that it was precisely because he could resist such greed that he avoided one calamity after another.
Here, all Snow Lotus flowers were guarded by spiritual beasts inside the cave. As long as Han Ren uprooted any immature Snow Lotus flower, they would immediately be alarmed!
In ancient times, these spiritual beasts were raised by the Tianshan Sect hundreds of years ago. When the whole sect moved to other caves and could not take these Snow Lotus flowers with them, they only picked some mature ones and collected seeds, leaving behind those that had not reached a significant age limit, thus abandoning the spiritual beasts here.
Over these few centuries, the spiritual beasts have multiplied on their own, becoming more numerous. Feasting on snow lotus flowers, they have grown increasingly powerful! Although arrays control them and prevent them from leaving the cave, due to lack of management, they have gradually turned into "wild beasts"!
Hao Ren's meager cultivation level hasn't attracted their attention yet, but if he plucks any snow lotus flower, these sensitive spiritual beasts will be instantly alerted!
The deeper one goes inside the cave, the more ancient snow lotuses there are! Hao Ren didn’t ponder over this phenomenon; he simply assumed that the deeper into the cave one went, the stronger the spiritual energy would be, allowing the snow lotus flowers to grow better. However, what he didn't know was that even the earth dragon tribe had to face a collective attack from these spiritual beasts when picking snow lotuses!
Therefore, only some of the snow lotuses near the entrance could be plucked; as one went deeper inside the cave, not even an earth dragon would be able to withstand the ferocity of these spiritual beasts!
Su Han was meditating and cultivating outside the cave entrance, completely unaware that Hao Ren had already fallen into danger! In her mind, this place was simply a snow lotus growth area left behind by previous cultivation sects. Even if it were dangerous, it wouldn't be too perilous!
Hao Ren's dripping footsteps finally roused some sleeping spiritual beasts to react; pairs of eyes gradually opened in the darkness.
However, Hao Ren was completely oblivious to this; he had already expended a lot of energy using sword beams for guidance and couldn't spare any attention to notice that a group of spiritual beasts were following him!
"A thousand-year snow lotus!" After walking for an unknown amount of time, Hao Ren raised his head and shot out several sword beams. He saw on the ceiling of the cave exactly three thousand-year-old snow lotuses hanging down.
This was already at the end of the cave; Hao Ren had reached a dead-end! It resembled a large round room, and Hao Ren couldn't help but marvel at nature’s craftsmanship!
In his excitement, Hao Ren didn’t have time to think further. He raised his arm, aimed repeatedly.
Whoosh!
The index finger of his right hand shot out a beam of sword qi.
The sword qi struck beside the middle snow lotus but only caused some pebbles on top to fall off; it didn’t dislodge the snow lotus.
Hao Ren calmed down, aimed again. Even though Zhao Yanzi’s uncle was waiting for these three thousand-year-old snow lotuses as a lifeline, Hao Ren couldn't afford to fail at this point!
If he hit inaccurately and destroyed the thousand-year-old snow lotus, it would be regrettable! If his attack was too heavy and caused the fragile cave ceiling to collapse, that would be even worse!
After making a slight adjustment in angle, Hao Ren sent out another weaker beam of sword qi. This time, it hit exactly at the root of the middle snow lotus, causing it to gently fall from the cave ceiling!
Hao Ren hurried forward and caught the snow lotus with his hand.
The just-picked snow lotus contained even more spiritual energy than the two Hao Ren had previously obtained. Not wanting to waste this precious resource, he quickly stored it in the spatial pocket of the necklace.
When he aimed at the second snow lotus, he didn’t dare to let his guard down.
There were only three snow lotuses in the entire cave. Add the one thousand-year-old snow lotus in Northwest Earth Dragon’s possession and the two snow lotuses that were already obtained, there were only six ten-year-old snow lotuses left in existence. This clearly showed how precious they were!
A thousand-year-old snow lotus matured over a hundred years, reaching its peak medicinal effects after a millennium! After passing a millennium, it would fall off and rot on its own.
Hao Ren used his left hand to support his right one as if he was using a crossbow. He then released another sword qi.
When the sword qi brought a bit of light towards the cave ceiling, Hao Ren suddenly noticed that there seemed to be many white creatures lurking on top.
The moment the sword glow flew upward and struck down the second snow lotus, Hao Ren also took the chance to see clearly: A pile of white-furred lions were crawling on top!
Snow lions!
Along with the snow lotuses that fell from the cave ceiling, a dense group of snow lions pounced down as well.
Hao Ren’s brain heated up. He rushed forward to catch the snow lotus in his arms and stored it in his necklace. His ten fingers順勢釋放出了十道五行劍氣!
離級的五行創氣!
劍氣打在這些雪獅子的身體上,隻是讓這些半人高的雪獅子在空中稍微翻了個身,在落地之後,冇有任何猶豫,就朝著郝仁撲過來!
拚了!郝仁心裡的血性也激發出來,想到趙闊渡劫的氣勢,全身的靈力也澎湃起來,十指連發,再有十道劍氣放出!
剛纔跟秦少陽對戰,他用的是蘇涵的靈力,所以自身的靈力並無損耗。此刻麵對這數十隻瞪著大眼的雪獅子,郝仁心裡湧起的,不是害怕。而是激戰的鬥誌!
數十隻雪獅子露出雪白的獠牙,撕咬上來,郝仁手掌翻動,後退半步。又是十根劍氣放出!
石 氣全部打在前麵的幾隻雪獅子的頭部,使得它們嗷嗷直叫!看起來。劍氣雖然不強,但逛是有點傷害力的!
但也正是如此,劍氣激起他們的凶性。使得它們烏黑的眼睛裡,也瞬間充滿血絲!
昏暗的環境裡,一個個猶如燈籠的紅色眼睛!郝仁亮起劍光,就能看到它們齜牙咧嘴!
再轉身,郝仁看到過來的路。也已經被十幾隻更加巨大的雪獅子給堵死了!這個溶洞的儘頭,這個圓形的大空間,就是雪獅子的幼兒室!
