"Hey, look! What's that?"
Liu Qianhuan pointed at a black shadow about five hundred meters away with a surprised expression.
Everyone looked in the direction she was pointing and saw a black shadow moving.
Could it be some kind of life form? In the inner region of the Ancient Barren Realm, aside from the mountain-like rock golem, they couldn't see any other life forms. Who would've thought that there would be life forms here?
"Let's go! Let's go and have a look! "An Lin flew toward the black shadow on his brick.
The black shadow seemed to have sensed danger and started to flee.
However, its speed was no match for An Lin and the others', so it was quickly caught up to.
Only when they got closer did they see the black shadow clearly. It was actually an extremely large rat!
This rat was about ten feet in size. Its fur was pitch-black, and its tail was as red as blood. Its large, intelligent eyes darted around, occasionally glancing at the cultivators behind it as it ran for its life.
"Let's not catch it. Let's just follow it and see where it can run to," An Lin suggested excitedly.
"There aren't any caves nearby, so when a mouse encounters danger, its instinctive reaction should be to run home. I'm a little curious as to what kind of place would be able to feed this mouse," Xuanyuan Cheng said with a smile.
Such a large rat couldn't have survived through photosynthesis in this world of ice and snow, right? There had to be some kind of unknown place.
Just like that, everyone chased after the rat for a distance of five or six kilometers. Then, the rat plunged headfirst into the snow and completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
"This …" An Lin blinked in confusion. Why did this rat suddenly burrow into the snow? Could it be a gopher?
Battle God Zi Yang's brows furrowed tightly. "No, there's something wrong with this snow!"
He waved a hand, and a gust of wind swept through the air, sending snow flying into the air.
An Lin and the others immediately noticed that something was amiss. The snow that the rat had burrowed into was extremely heavy. Instead, the snow around it flew up into the air while the snow in the center bulged out like a ball of white cotton.
An Lin landed on the snow and lightly touched the bulging snow with his hand. To his surprise, he didn't feel a trace of coldness. It was as if his hand had pierced into thin air.
He thought for a moment, then took out another spirit stone and tossed it into the snow.
The Spirit Stone collided with the accumulated snow, causing it to wriggle gently like a cloud. Then, it disappeared.
"Haha, looks like we've found the right place. This is the Space Channel!"
An Lin's eyes lit up with excitement.
Everyone then turned their attention to Battle God Zi Yang.
Battle God Zi Yang's eyelids twitched, and he stumbled back a couple of steps. "Why are you looking at me?"
An Lin cleared his throat. "M-hm … We need a powerful guide, and I think you're the most suitable candidate, Senior Zi Yang."
Battle God Zi Yang grimaced, and he had a million curses he wanted to hurl. However, when he saw the flickering light in the little green snake's eyes, he forcefully swallowed his words.
"Alright! I'll be a hero for once! "
Zi Yang's expression was resolute as he leaped!
The snow fell silently, and his figure completely disappeared in the snow.
An Lin and the others looked expectantly at the protruding snow, waiting for a response.
A minute later, there was still no response from the snow.
Three minutes later, the protruding snow was still very calm.
An Lin couldn't help but ask, "Senior Zi Yang wouldn't have died, would he?"
Hu Guan was also a little nervous. "Could it be that this Space Channel can only teleport in one direction?"
"That's a possibility. Since the rat can come out, then there must be a way out. However, the exit might be different from the entrance," Xuanyuan Cheng also said solemnly.
"How about we all go down together? That way, we can take care of each other if we encounter any mishaps," An Lin said as he enlarged his black brick.
It would be easier for them to face unknown dangers together. After all, there might be dangers down there that could even kill a Battle God, so they couldn't be too cautious.
Everyone looked at each other and nodded with resolute expressions. They leaped onto An Lin's black brick and slowly sank into the snow.
As their vision changed, the vast expanse of white snow transformed into a lush green world with lush greenery and lively nightingales.
Forest, fresh flowers, grassland, clear spring …
A rich aura of life washed over them. When they came to their senses, they had already landed on a grassland. Next to them was a teleportation tunnel that looked like it was made of white cotton.
An Lin put away his black brick and looked around in amazement.
"This is practically a paradise …" Tian Lingling's eyes widened and she couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
Regardless of whether it was the towering ancient trees or the peach blossoms beside the clear spring, they were all filled with boundless life force, giving off a breathtaking feeling.
A light breeze blew over, accompanied by the faint fragrance of flowers. Pink flower petals danced in the wind, and with every breath of air, one's body felt a little more refreshed.
"Say, where did Senior Zi Yang go?"
An Lin saw that everything was peaceful and there didn't seem to be any danger. Where was Zi Yang? He couldn't have been eaten by a rat, could he?
Everyone also looked around in puzzlement, and then their gazes converged on a towering tree in unison.
There was a person lying on the ground, foaming at the mouth and holding a half-eaten fruit in his hand.
An Lin raised his head and looked toward the tree. There were eight fruits at the top of the tree, all of which were glowing with a faint red light.
He finally understood what was going on. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he walked toward Zi Yang. He patted Zi Yang's aggrieved face and chuckled. "They say that people die for wealth and birds die for food. Even if you want to keep these fruits for yourself, you can't be so impulsive. You should at least check to see if they're poisonous."
Battle God Zi Yang: "…"
The little green snake transformed into her human form and instantly arrived at the top of the tree. She plucked an immortal fruit in her hand and carefully sensed the energy fluctuations within it.
"Heh … this is a third-rank immortal fruit that contains an extremely rich flame power and vital energy. The powerful flame power is what attracted Zi Yang, but this extremely rich vital energy … is poisonous to him!" Saying this, Bi Qiong felt that it was a bit funny. She looked at the man on the ground with her beautiful phoenix eyes and continued, "Haste makes waste. Now do you know how it feels when Primordial Qi collides with your Battle Qi?"
Battle God Zi Yang's body was still convulsing, and the energy within his body was surging violently. He looked toward Battle Goddess Bi Qiong with a pleading gaze.
Battle Goddess Bi Qiong turned her gaze toward White Spirit Snake, and White Spirit Snake turned her gaze toward An Lin.
An Lin massaged his brows. "Alright, let's save him. At most, we'll just make him swear another Heavenly Dao Oath."
White Spirit Snake smiled at Bi Qiong. "Little Qing, I'll leave the matter of adjusting his Battle Qi to you."
Battle Goddess Bi Qiong: "…"
She shook her head in exasperation. She placed her hand on Battle God Zi Yang's back, and a green light started to radiate from her hand.
Ten minutes later, the light disappeared.
Bi Qiong transformed back into a green snake and once again latched onto White Spirit Snake's back.
An Lin was a bit envious of White Spirit Snake. A gentle, considerate, beautiful, and powerful beast pet like her was exactly what he needed!
He couldn't help but think of Xiao Hong. That girl only knew how to photosynthesize every day. She would either suddenly wake her master up by singing in the morning or ridicule her master …
Sigh, it's infuriating to compare spoils!
Battle God Zi Yang stood up. Although his face was a bit pale, it was clear that he was fine.
He looked awkwardly at his team members and thought for a moment. Then, he passed the remaining half of the immortal fruit to them. "I'm sorry, I was wrong. There's still half of this immortal fruit left. I'll hand it over!"
All the team members: "…"
Is he f * cking acting cute?!
An Lin grimaced. "Swear another Heavenly Dao Oath!"
Just like that, Battle God Zi Yang swore another Heavenly Dao Oath that he had to hand over any treasures he discovered to An Lin and the others.
The remaining half of the immortal fruit was also given to Zi Yang. No one wanted to eat his saliva!
An Lin and the others plucked all eight immortal fruits and placed them on the ground.
Third-rank immortal fruit, Sun Condensing Fruit. It had the effect of expanding one's sea of vital energy and increasing one's flame power.
How were they going to split it? Bi Qiong and Zi Yang didn't want it, but there were still ten of them!
Right at this moment, Tang Ximen volunteered. He took out a roulette with ten spaces on it and marked each team member with a serial number. Then, he spun eight spots of light!
"Please don't doubt me, my roulette is very fair!"
As if afraid that everyone wouldn't believe him, Tang Ximen emphasized again and again as he spun the roulette.
The results were out, and it was indeed fair. Because Tang Ximen didn't make it …
F * ck! What kind of bad luck do I have?!
Tang Ximen stared at the results of the roulette with tears streaming down his face. He was completely speechless.
The other person who didn't make it was Xuanyuan Cheng. However, he was very calm and collected. It was as if he was lucky to get the immortal fruit, but if he didn't, it was his fate.
An Lin picked up the immortal fruit and ate it to his heart's content.
He squinted his eyes in bliss as he sensed the richer vital energy and flame power in his body.
"Senior Zi Yang, do you see that? This is the correct way to eat an immortal fruit."
After eating the immortal fruit, he didn't forget to add another stab. Zi Yang's chest tightened, and he almost vomited blood.
After splitting the immortal fruits, everyone continued to wander around.
Soon, they discovered a cave abode.
The plaque of the cave abode hung from the ceiling, and the words written on it were fresh and natural.
The plaque read "Tomb of Celestial Immortal Shou Yang".
