There were still three months before the ancient battlefield would be sealed.
During this period of time, Su Zimo, monkey and the others roamed the battlefield wantonly, trying their best to gather Soul Nourishing Blood Ginsengs.
The five of them had cultivated to the peak of their core formation. After entering the Nascent Soul realm, they had to consume Soul Nourishing Blood Ginsengs to raise their cultivation realms and refine their Essence Spirits.
Naturally, the more Soul Nourishing Blood Ginsengs the better.
The so-called Nascent Soul referred to the infant formed by the Essence Spirit.
How was the Essence Spirit cultivated?
There was an ancient saying that one could see the spirit after breaking through the voids!
The 'spirit' referred to the Essence Spirit!
What was the voids?
How did one break through the voids?
The location of the Essence Spirit was the most mysterious region in the brain. It was located in the depths of the glabella, known as the Niwan Palace or the Spirit Platform.
It was a secret realm that the human body could not reach.
Legend has it that the three souls and seven spirits of living beings were within!
Prior to this, no matter how cultivators cultivated, it was difficult for them to reach the Spirit Platform.
There was a barrier between the Spirit Platform and the human body – that barrier was the so-called voids!
Breaking through the voids was to break through that barrier!
When one's core formation was perfected and their power of core formation was cultivated to its limits, they could attempt to break through the barrier under the control of their consciousness.
If they could break through the barrier, they would arrive at the Spirit Platform.
The three souls and seven spirits of living beings were formless to begin with.
They were merely a ball of light that was void.
After breaking through the voids and the Jin Dan charged into the Spirit Platform, a phenomenon of light filling the entire room and turning white would occur.
When the three souls and seven spirits fused with it, a tangible object would be formed. For example, a newborn infant would be known as a Nascent Soul!
That was also the Essence Spirit!
The human body was the most mysterious and formed a world of its own.
The process of breaking through the voids and the Jin Dan's charge was the process of communicating with Heaven and Earth!
Therefore, after condensing an Essence Spirit, cultivators would be able to mobilize the powers of Heaven and Earth and condense Dharmic powers that were even more terrifying and powerful than spirit energy!
However, Su Zimo's situation was different from others.
Not only did he have the Jin Dan, he also had an Inner Core!
Nobody knew what sort of changes would occur if he were to break through under such circumstances.
…
Over the past three months, the five of them had encountered many battles, big and small.
Some ferocious beasts and ancient creatures were blind. When they saw that there were only five of them, they wanted to surround and kill them to seize their treasures. However, they were defeated by them instead.
In this world, there was nothing that could threaten the five of them.
On this day, Su Zimo's group of five once again dispersed a group of attacking beasts, and began to organize and collect the spoils of war from the battlefield.
Right now, there were more than 800,000 Soul Nourishing Blood Ginseng in Su Zimo's storage bag!
"In my opinion, let's not waste our time looking for the Soul Nourishing Blood Ginseng."
Linghu picked up the storage pouches on the battlefield as he said, "Let's just rob them! With the skills of the five of us, won't we be able to snatch them all? "
"I think so too."
Qing Qing said snappily, "These days, there are always some Demonic Beasts who want to take advantage of us. I think we should take the initiative and rob them!"
Su Zimo remained silent and shifted his gaze to the bottom of a small hill not far away.
"Young Master, what are you looking at?"
Curious, Little Fox followed Su Zimo's gaze but saw nothing.
"There's a scoundrel who has been following us for three to four days without doing anything,"
Su Zimo said with a fake smile, "Now, I'm curious about what he's trying to do."
"Ah, where is he?"
Little Fox asked with widened eyes.
Su Zimo raised his head slightly and smiled. "He's hiding beneath that hill."
Monkey, Linghu and Qing Qing looked over as well. Moving their feet, they gradually formed an encirclement with cold and unfriendly expressions.
According to Su Zimo, someone had been following them for three to four days. However, they did not notice anything – it was clear that the person was rather capable!
In truth, Su Zimo was curious as well.
The person who was following them was extremely careful and his movements were light and almost undetectable.
If not for the fact that Su Zimo cultivated the Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness and had dragon blood flowing through his body and terrifying senses, he would not have been able to detect that person's tracks!
More importantly, his spirit perception did not give him any warning.
In other words, the person who was following them had no enmity towards them.
That was also the reason why Su Zimo did not attack and kill the person right away.
However, the person did not give up even after three to four days and continued following them from afar – that made Su Zimo impatient.
"Scoundrel, who are you? Come out and meet us!"
Linghu glared at the hill not far away and hollered majestically.
In all fairness, even if the three of them were staring at the mountain, they would not have noticed that there was someone hiding in the mountain.
But after a while, the pile of hills suddenly moved.
The sand gradually collapsed and a hole the size of a washbasin appeared on the spot.
Immediately after, a greyish demonic beast darted out of the hole.
Everyone focused their gazes and was stunned.
Little Fox opened her tiny mouth and murmured, "It's indeed a scoundrel …"
Su Zimo was slightly stunned as well before bursting into laughter.
The demon beast was the size of a piglet and was covered in short gray fur. It had a long tail and its tiny eyes darted around with a sneaky expression – it was truly a gigantic rat!
"Brothers, please don't get angry. I'm a good friend of yours …" The rat spoke in human language.
"Don't call me brother! Scoundrel, why are you following us?!"
When Linghu caught sight of the rat, he felt as though he could slap it to death with a casual slap. Instantly, he was invigorated and hollered angrily.
The rat shuddered in fright.
"Calm down, Master Hu,"
A pair of tiny paws hugged each other and the rat bowed repeatedly towards monkey, Linghu and Qing Qing, speaking in human language with a fawning smile. "A few days ago, I chanced upon the few of you in action and was instantly stunned! That peerless demeanor was truly unforgettable. "
Monkey and Qing Qing did not have much of a reaction when they heard that.
However, Linghu was extremely pleased and his face flushed red in high spirits.
"Scoundrel, that's rather pertinent of you."
Linghu nodded and asked, "Just Now, who were you referring to when you mentioned peerless demeanor?"
The rat replied hurriedly, "Of course, it's Master Hu! Master Hu is truly brave and invincible with a torrential aura that can sweep through the eight desolates unparalleled! "
Linghu was elated when he heard that but he pretended to be reserved on the surface. "Yes, you've got a good eye."
"Ugh!"
Qing Qing and Little Fox could no longer take it as they rolled their eyes and vomited non-stop.
"After all that nonsense, you still haven't said why you're following us!" Monkey sneered and kicked the rat neither too hard nor too lightly.
The rat rolled its eyes and said, "The main reason why I'm following you brothers is because I can't forget your demeanor …"
"If you continue being dishonest, I'll wring your head off and hang it on my waist so that you'll follow me forever. How about that?" Monkey smirked.
The rat shuddered and turned obedient instantly, smiling awkwardly. "I want to invite you guys to my territory. I believe that you guys will definitely be able to establish a hegemony given your capabilities!"
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat as he asked, "Where's your territory?"
"Thousand Demon Valley of the Middle Continent!"
The rat replied.
