He knew very well that he was safe inside the Golden Light Umbrella, but the difference in their cultivation levels was too great. Based on Mu Wan's speed, there was no way he could hurt him. Thus, he purposely taunted Mu Wan, hoping that Mu Wan would be foolish enough to break through his Purple Flame Flying Sword. Then, he would take the opportunity to kill Mu Wan.
However, to his surprise, Mu Wan only left a cold 'humph', then turned into a streak of light and disappeared into the distance. Mu Wan didn't even give him a chance to use the Purple Flame Flying Sword. She accepted Wan Ling's warning, not daring to act rashly.
In the air, Wan Lihong and the others nodded at each other, then quietly chased after Mu Wan. Before she left, Wan Ling looked at Yue Qianchou with a complicated expression. Thinking about how Mu Wan had touched and pinched her face, and how she couldn't do anything to him, her heart twisted uncomfortably. She could only hope that they would never meet again, lest she remembered that disgusting scene every time she saw him...
Yue Qianchou watched as the streak of light disappeared into the distance, his brows knitted together. He was a little confused by Mu Wan's actions. Ambushing him out of the blue, then running away without saying a word. What was the meaning of this? Mu Wan's cultivation level far surpassed his own! Could it be that Mu Wan noticed that his Purple Flame Flying Sword was condensed from the Purple Flame and ran away in fear?
Thinking about it, it didn't seem possible. According to his knowledge, even in the Immortal World, there weren't many people who had the fortune to see the Purple Flame Flying Sword. It was even more impossible for Mu Wan to recognize the Purple Flame Flying Sword. This was the first time he had seen something like this, let alone others.
No matter how he thought about it, he felt that the problem was with the Golden Light Umbrella. Mu Wan was probably scared away by the treasure from the Immortal Palace. Thinking of this, he began to worry. If Mu Wan leaked the secret of his Golden Light Umbrella, then it would be troublesome.
Who cares, if it really happened, this old man will not admit it even if he was beaten to death, and will instead accuse Mu Wan of framing me! Yue Qianchou steeled his heart, he couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore.
What he didn't know was that he was thinking too much. Mu Wan and Wan Tong's higher ups would not spread this news, for they had their own concerns. Just think about it, they had already confirmed that Yue Qianchou was Immortal Emperor Jin Tai's trusted aide. If they leaked the news that Yue Qianchou had the Golden Light Umbrella, Yue Qianchou would definitely suspect that Wan Gu Tong was behind this sneak attack. Ambushing an Immortal Emperor's trusted aide was not something Wan Gu Tong could afford to offend. Needless to say, Wan Gu Tong's secret would rot in his stomach.
He cautiously looked around several times, not daring to put away the Golden Light Umbrella that he had taken out, fearing that he would encounter another sneak attack out of the blue. After some hesitation, he identified a direction and lightly stomped his feet. The granite on the ground melted, and he sank into the ground along with the umbrella.
After, he sank. good. after, Wan, Tong had to that that he had Wan, the Earth, Earth, he and., he..... Close to two hours later, he found himself out of the granite mountain range. Layers of soil appeared around him, and he quickly floated to the surface.
When he emerged from the surface, he found himself in a barren land overgrown with weeds. Behind him was the granite mountain range. The barren land stretched as far as the eye could see. Among the lush grass, there were a few tall trees standing proudly. After Yue Qianchou identified the direction, he didn't hesitate and sped away.
On the green and yellow plains, tigers and wolves could be seen chasing their prey. The bloody scene did not attract Yue Qianchou's attention. His eyes were filled with determination as he flew towards the horizon. Only when he noticed some special terrain would he throw a small silver ball into the air.
The purpose of this trip was simple, he wanted to go to the Hallucinatory Immortal City and register a merchant association. He wanted the merchant association to flourish in the Immortal World. He wanted to lead the cultivators in the Immortal World to search for the miracle of life. Then, the miracle would begin with him …
After flying at high speed for more than ten days, Yue Qianchou was in tears. Based on his current flying speed, if he was in the Immortal World, he would have circled countless times. But in the Immortal World, he had just flown out of this vast plain. How big the Immortal World was became a question in his mind.
It was another sunset. The sunset dyed Yue Qianchou, who was flying at high speed in the sky, red. Even though he felt that his cultivation was not bad, he still felt that flying at high speed for more than a dozen days was a little too much for him. He grabbed a handful of elixirs and stuffed them into his mouth. As he flew, he slowly recovered his True Essence. He felt that the effect was too slow and was considering when to get some elixirs. Suddenly, he was attracted by the landscape below.
Although it was still relatively bright high up in the sky, the ground below was gradually shrouded in darkness. In the dusky twilight, there was a scarlet mountain hilly area. There were few trees and bright red stone mountains everywhere.
Yue Qianchou, who was more or less tired, could not help but jump down. Taking the opportunity to admire the strange mountain scenery, he took a break and recovered his spirit. So he landed on a red stone pillar that was like a towering stalagmite. He looked around and found that the reason why the mountain was red was because of the Danxia landscape.
The mountain was undulating and dangerous, and the stone forest was like a mess. Under the sunset, there was a gray fog that rippled, giving people a feeling of palpitation. The undulating and messy stone forest seemed to hide some terrifying monster. Although the gray fog was thin, it seemed to be able to block people's vision. It seemed that no matter how high one's cultivation was, it would be difficult to peep at the secrets hidden behind it.
The surroundings were dead silent. Yue Qianchou felt that it was a little strange. Curious, he immediately flew into the depths of the gray stone forest. Along the way, he did not find anything unusual. In the depths of the messy stone forest, arched hills gradually appeared. The hills were full of caves of various sizes, and it was unknown how they were formed.
Yue Qianchou circled a few times in the gray fog and landed in front of a tall scarlet hill. Directly in front of him was a cave with a diameter of five or six meters. It was pitch-black inside, and a faint gray fog was curling out from the inside. It looked very strange.
After hesitating for a while at the cave entrance, he felt that the Immortal World could not be judged by the common sense of the human world, so he did not dare to enter. He stretched out two fingers, and a dazzling red spark jumped and condensed at the tip of his finger. It became the size of an egg. He condensed all the ordinary fire in his body into this ball, and with a flick of his finger, it shot directly into the depths of the cave with a "whoosh".
Only to hear a muffled "hum" sound from inside the cave, and the entire belly of the mountain seemed to be ignited by the raging fire. The big and small caves on the hill instantly shone with red light, and one after another, flames sprayed out. It was like thousands of fireworks had bloomed together. There was no doubt that the big and small caves on the hill were all connected.
The cave entrance that Yue Qianchou was facing was the place where the fire was the fiercest. The surging flames swallowed his body in an instant. But he did not avoid it, and stood quietly at the cave entrance, letting the fire engulf him. To him, he could not think of any fire in the world that could hurt him.
Almost at this moment, from the seemingly empty hill came a series of shrill and angry squeaks. It was so sharp that it pierced one's eardrums, followed by the sound of countless flapping wings …
Yue Qianchou's pupils shrank slightly, and saw that in the raging sea of fire, there were dense black shadows that quickly escaped from the cave entrance like lightning. The squeaks immediately filled the air. After the raging fire rose for a while, it gradually disappeared and shrunk in the cave.
Amidst the noise, Yue Qianchou stared dumbfoundedly at the creatures that filled the sky. He never thought that the fire that he had set up on a whim would actually attract so many creatures.
Bats. Each and every one of them was as big as a washbasin, and their bodies were covered in fur. What made Yue Qianchou feel strange was that the fire that he had released actually did not harm the fur on their bodies …
He suddenly recalled a type of bat recorded in the illustrated jade archive. It was called the 'Enchanting Vampire Bat', and it lived by sucking the blood of living creatures. Although they were only as big as a washbasin, they could suck the blood of a live cow dry in one breath, and swell to the point where they would not die. The fur on their bodies was not afraid of fire, and the treasures refined from them were the nemesis of cultivators who played with fire. Their bones were born with the ability to control the wind, and were excellent materials for refining flying artifacts. Compared to ordinary flying artifacts, their speed could be increased by about a third.
The most valuable part of the Enchanting Vampire Bat was its pair of eyes. Its eyes were born with the ability to confuse a person's mind. After bewitching an animal's mind, the Enchanting Vampire Bat could effortlessly attach itself to the animal's body and suck its blood dry without any resistance. Harvesting its eyeballs could be used to refine a valuable treasure called the 'Lost Immortal Bead'. Even if it wasn't refined into a treasure, it could be directly ground into powder, which was a colorless and odorless poison. Although it wouldn't kill, its greatest effect was to turn a person into a retard. To cultivators, this kind of non-lethal poison was often more frightening than a lethal poison.
However, whether it was its fur, bones, or eyeballs, they all needed to be harvested in large quantities to be refined into a treasure. In the Immortal World, an Enchanting Vampire Bat could be sold for about a million divine grade spirit stones. However, this kind of thing was rarely seen in the market. Those with high cultivation would not bother to get their hands on it, and those with low cultivation would find it difficult to get their hands on it. Although one Enchanting Vampire Bat wasn't scary, if it was a group of them, it would be very difficult to fend them off without the cultivation of a Great Immortal. Unfortunately for them, Enchanting Vampire Bats were social animals.
The scariest thing was, there would usually be one or several Vampire Bat Kings with decent cultivation as their leader. If an outsider wanted to take advantage of them, they would have to have some ability first.
And the group of bats that Yue Qianchou saw at this moment matched the Enchanting Vampire Bats recorded in the jade archive. Each of them had a head that looked like a rat's, with pairs of sharp, shining eyes, like the cold stars in the sky. They spread their wings and circled in the sky, their forte being their speed. They came and went as fast as lightning. They seemed to be circling around Yue Qianchou, with countless eyes that were as sharp as the cold stars staring at Yue Qianchou. A savage aura was growing stronger …
