Lin Buzheng avoided the Five-Colored Poison Python and continued towards the top of the mountain carefully.
Not long after, Lin Buzheng encountered another terrifying demonic beast.
It was a three-legged toad the size of a palm. Its entire body gave off a golden glow as it hopped forward in the bushes.
The aura it gave off was incomparably small, looking similar to that of an ordinary toad.
However, in the next moment, the three-legged toad leaped up.
Not far away, there was a Rank 4 demonic beast, the Spirit Cloud Rhinoceros, that was thirty feet tall and weighed a few hundred kilograms.
It was so fast that it was like a bolt of golden lightning.
"Croak, croak!"
After the three-legged toad swallowed the Spirit Cloud Rhinoceros, its palm-sized body instantly expanded by a few hundred times, becoming even larger than the Spirit Cloud Rhinoceros.
It cried out in satisfaction before striding forward with its three feet, disappearing into the depths of the forest.
Lin Buzheng held his breath and hid at the top of the ancient tree.
Only when the three-legged toad's aura completely disappeared did he jump down from the ancient tree and continue forward.
Although Lin Buzheng did not know what kind of demonic beast this three-legged toad was, he could tell that its combat strength was definitely not below that of the Five-Colored Poison Python.
"This is …"
Not long after, Lin Buzheng stopped halfway up the mountain.
Not far in front of him was a spacious clearing that was a few miles wide.
The ground was bare and not a single blade of grass grew.
There was only an ancient tree in the center of the clearing.
This ancient tree was a thousand feet tall. Its bark was dark grey and its trunk was strong and strong. The entire ancient tree gave off an ancient aura.
It looked no different from the ancient trees that could be seen everywhere on the mountain peak.
However, in the next moment, as Lin Buzheng approached, he saw a face on the ancient tree!
It was the face of a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and thick cheekbones. He exuded a dignified aura and looked no different from an ordinary person's face.
The only difference was that this middle-aged man's eyes were tightly shut.
His expression was serene.
It was as though he was in a deep sleep.
However, with the passage of time, the pair of eyeballs under his eyelids started to roll around. It was as if he would wake up from his slumber at the very next moment.
When Lin Buzheng saw this scene, he was horrified.
Not daring to stay here any longer, he took another path and quickly left.
In this world, humans were not the only ones with spirits.
A blade of grass, a tree, an insect, a fish, a bird, a beast, even a mountain, a river, and a rock could develop intelligence and embark on the path of cultivation after absorbing the spiritual energy of the world and the essence of the sun and moon.
Upon reaching a certain level of cultivation, one could even abandon their original body and transform into a human.
If Lin Buzheng's guess was right, this mysterious ancient tree had reached an extremely crucial step in its cultivation.
According to the common understanding of the Martial Dao World, only Rank Nine Demonic Beasts could shed their demonic bodies and evolve into human form.
One could imagine the terrifying strength of this ancient tree.
If Lin Buzheng had alarmed this ancient tree just now, the consequences would have been unspeakable.
However, in general, there were only a few high-ranked demonic beasts like the Five-Colored Poison Python, the Three-legged Toad, and the Shapeshifting Ancient Tree in the Eagle Claw Mountain.
After Lin Buzheng bypassed the mysterious ancient tree, the rest of the journey was smooth sailing. He did not encounter any other high-ranked demonic beasts.
Even so, Lin Buzheng did not dare to be careless.
He focused his attention and proceeded forward cautiously.
He was afraid that if he was not careful, he would bump into a high-ranked demonic beast head-on and become a snack for the latter.
Whoosh!
Following this, Lin Buzheng executed the Heavenly Eagle Movement Technique and the White Deer Movement Technique from time to time, avoiding the demonic beasts while traversing through the forest.
However, as time passed, Lin Buzheng felt that his speed was too slow.
Apart from that, no matter how careful Lin Buzheng was to conceal his aura, he was still in a human form. As he traversed through the forest filled with demonic beasts, he was extremely eye-catching.
In the next moment, Lin Buzheng commanded in his heart and silently circulated the White Deer Azure Mark Technique.
In the blink of an eye, he turned into a white deer and sprinted forward.
"This is much better!"
Lin Buzheng muttered to himself in satisfaction and let out a deer-like cry.
After Lin Buzheng transformed into a white deer, his movement technique's speed increased by a large margin.
Secondly, deer-like demonic beasts were extremely common in the forest. One could even see two or three white deer occasionally.
As Lin Buzheng turned into a white deer, he was no longer eye-catching as he traversed through the forest.
This prevented demonic beasts that hated humans from attacking him.
"Haha!"
"Awesome, awesome!"
Lin Buzheng turned into a white deer and sprinted through the forest.
He had never felt that life was so free and that the world was so vast.
His heart was suddenly enlightened.
In the past, no matter how much he cultivated the White Deer Green Mark Art to the Unrestrained Realm, he was still unable to grasp the essence.
He had always been using his heart to activate the deer body.
As such, he naturally could not understand the essence of the white deer cultivation technique.
However, Lin Buzheng turned into a white deer and traversed through the forest that was filled with demonic beasts. He was close to nature and galloped freely, truly treating himself as a white deer.
At this point, the last missing piece of the spiritual puzzle was finally made up.
Whoosh!
At this moment, the spirit deer that Lin Buzheng had transformed into tapped its hooves on the ground lightly and instantly flew hundreds of feet away.
Such a speed was not only twice as fast as before, it was comparable to a half-step spirit dao Almighty!
Whoosh!
At this moment, the white deer that Lin Buzheng had transformed into was freely traversing between cliffs and boulders.
His body was agile and his eyes were intelligent.
Not only was his speed extremely fast, but it was also no different from a real white deer.
He had already completely integrated into nature.
"Awoo!"
In the next moment, the white deer that Lin Buzheng had transformed into rolled gently on the ground.
When he got up again, he had transformed into a colorful tiger.
The tiger's roar shook the sky.
Following the numerous strange rocks and steep mountain walls, he climbed all the way to the peak.
Not only was his speed extremely slow, but the aura of his movement technique was also completely different from that of a white deer.
Boom!
However, as time passed, the speed at which Lin Buzheng had transformed into a tiger climbed faster and faster in the mountain stream. His aura was incomparably strong, as though he was the king of the forest.
Clearly, Lin Buzheng had also grasped this opportunity to completely comprehend the heart of a tiger!
Boom!
Just like that, Lin Buzheng transformed into a white deer, a tiger, or a nine-colored demon bull and climbed quickly towards the peak.
After nearly two hours, he finally reached the peak.
"If only I could fly!"
Lin Buzheng turned back into his human form and stood at the peak.
Looking down at the extremely dense clouds, Xiao Chen let out a sigh.
If he could fly, he would not have to go through so much trouble to climb all the way.
As long as he flew straight to the peak, he would be able to reach the peak in less than ten minutes.
However, Lin Buzheng had not ascended to the spirit dao realm, nor had he grasped the flying ability. Such a sigh was just an extravagant hope that could not be realized.
"Hiss!"
"This is the legendary attack of the Sage Eagle?"
"It's indeed terrifying!"
Whoosh!
In the next moment, gusts of wind blew, blowing away the endless clouds below the peak.
