Whoosh!
There was a flash of the knife.
A humongous Flame Cow fell.
Blood gushed out.
Li Mu gasped for breath, feeling exhausted.
The danger in the Divine Fox Secret Realm was more terrifying than he had imagined.
Standing on a small hill, he was surrounded by the corpses of the humongous flaming bulls, which looked like small hills. There were about several hundred of them, all of which were killed by Li Mu in the battle just now.
This kind of Primordial Demonic Bull, which had long been extinct in the outside world, lived in herds, and was innately hostile to all creatures that trespassed into their territory. Li Mu was also unlucky. After using the secret key to enter the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm, he just so happened to be transported to the territory of the Rotten Flame Bulls. Even with Li Mu's cultivation, he was still exhausted after a great battle.
The Humongous Flame Cows were not at the top of the food chain in the Divine Fox Secret Realm, but they were already so difficult to deal with. This made Li Mu reevaluate the danger level of the Divine Fox Secret Realm.
"The horns, teeth, hooves, and stomachs of these Humongous Flame Cows are all excellent materials for alchemy and are highly sought after in the outside world."
Li Mu held a jade scroll in his hand.
It recorded the various treasures in the Divine Fox Secret Realm, as well as the value of various ancient fierce beasts. It also described in detail some forbidden areas, taboos, and the dangers and weaknesses of the creatures in the secret realm, as well as various escape methods in extreme situations.
His understanding of the Humongous Flame Cows was also obtained from this jade scroll.
And it was also through this information that Li Mu learned that the Divine Fox Secret Realm did not belong to the Heavenly Fox Clan. It was only because the Heavenly Fox Clan occupied the space-time passage into the secret realm and could make the key to enter, that it was named 'Divine Fox'.
However, anyone would be envious of such a great benefit. The other major forces would not allow the Celestial Fox Clan to completely occupy the right to use this secret realm. They jointly pressured the Celestial Fox Clan, and after various open and secret battles, they compromised with each other. The strength of the other clans could also get some places to enter.
And this time, the Heavenly Fox Clan used the Genius Competition to distribute some of the places that belonged to the other clans to the geniuses.
And for the other major clans, those who entered the top 100 were basically their people, so they did not particularly care.
Therefore, Li Mu was quite lucky to get the opportunity to enter the Heaven Fox Secret Realm.
In the past, no matter how famous he was in the Ziwei Galaxy, as long as he was not from a powerful family, he would not have the opportunity to enter the Celestial Fox Secret Realm. Not to mention the Celestial Fox Secret Realm, it was difficult to even enter some of the smaller secret realms.
This was just like ancient China on Earth. Opportunities, official positions, and status were all controlled by the aristocratic families.
It was the same in the Xing River.
The strong preyed on the weak, that was the eternal law of this world.
Li Mu put away the jade piece and found the body of the Humid Flame Bull King. He cut off some rare materials and stored them away.
He gave up on the idea of harvesting the precious materials from the other Humid Flame Bulls and left.
If he did that, it would be a waste of time.
He had to hurry up and find the Heaven Nourishing Soul Restoring Grass.
This was his first goal in entering the Divine Fox Secret Realm.
Li Mu rode on his broadsword and flew high up in the sky like a stream of light.
The Divine Fox Secret Realm was vast and majestic to the extreme. The mountains were steep and the rivers were surging. Although the Spiritual Qi was abundant, danger was everywhere. It could not be described as picturesque. Instead, it was more like barren hills and unruly rivers.
Deep in the mountains, there was a poisonous miasma.
Even a General Realm expert would instantly dissipate and turn into a pile of bones after inhaling a mouthful of the miasma.
Even Li Mu had to be careful.
As he flew across the sky, he could even see piles of bones on the towering mountains.
The white mountains of bones reflected the white snowfield under the sunlight.
God knew how many creatures had died here.
Some of the skeletons were like the bones of ancient giants. Just one bone was like a white mountain wall that was too high to climb. Even the ancient giant beasts that had died thousands of years ago seemed to still have a wisp of fierce spiritual power attached to their bones. They had lost their memories and consciousness. When other creatures passed by, that wisp of spiritual power would suddenly transform into the fierce totem phantom that was born, as if it still wanted to devour the creature. It was extremely terrifying.
Li Mu also had to be very careful to avoid it.
According to the guide-like jade, the place where the bones were piled up was an absolute forbidden zone. Those dead creatures had turned into vengeful spirits and ferocious creatures and lived in the bone mountains. Once any creature approached, they would attack in groups and devour the flesh and energy.
These vengeful spirits and ferocious creatures had an extremely crazy desire for the flesh and blood of the living.
Li Mu occasionally flew over a small bone mountain at a low altitude.
In an instant, countless translucent monsters and ferocious creatures let out shrill roars and rushed out of the bones. They blotted out the sky and crazily swarmed toward Li Mu like man-eating ants. It was extremely terrifying.
Fortunately, in order to survive, they had to attach themselves to their respective skeletons. Once they were a certain distance away from the bones, their souls would instantly dissipate.
Therefore, when Li Mu flew a certain distance with the Somersault Cloud, those ferocious creatures roared and howled, then reluctantly returned to the Bone Mountain. They went back to the skeletons of their former lives and waited for the next prey to fly past.
In the blink of an eye, a day had passed.
"Holy sh * t, that is …"
Li Mu flew on the broadsword. Suddenly, he saw a bone mountain hundreds of thousands of meters high at the end of the horizon. Looking from a distance, it looked like an ancient glacier, connecting the sky and the earth, like a huge white pillar supporting the sky.
There were all kinds of huge bones that were thousands of meters high, which were much more terrifying than the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Li Mu didn't know what prehistoric giant had left these bones. Even from tens of thousands of meters away, Li Mu also felt that layers of ferocious and violent aura were blowing toward him like a surging ocean.
When he looked at it with his Third Eye, in an instant, the snow-white Sky Pillar became colorful, and all kinds of monsters were screaming in it.
And at the top of the Sky Pillar, a scarlet sea of clouds was rolling.
That was an extremely powerful vengeful spirit, whose aura far exceeded that of the King Realm. Li Mu didn't know what kind of existence it was.
Li Mu didn't even think about it and didn't dare to approach it. He directly flew away on his broadsword.
In addition to these bone areas, there were many places where living ancient ferocious beasts were entrenched.
When Li Mu flew on his broadsword, he saw countless terrible scenes.
A nine-winged phoenix, like a cloud hanging in the sky, led all the other birds to soar in the sky, as if it were the king of all birds, extremely majestic.
However, when it flew over a vast ocean, a huge demonic shark suddenly jumped out of the water, swallowed it, and dragged it into the Sea Eye.
Blood dyed the whole ocean red.
He even saw a giant ape that was tens of thousands of meters tall, its entire body emitting a ferocious aura as it chased after a Two-Winged Demon Wolf for food. But suddenly, it was bitten by a giant mouth that came out of the clouds.
What was more exaggerated was that the next moment, a huge kun appeared in the transparent air, opened its mouth, and directly swallowed the clouds in the sky. Li Mu didn't know what the creature with the huge mouth in the clouds was, but it disappeared in an instant.
The huge kun leisurely stretched its wings, and then its figure dimmed and disappeared.
Li Mu was covered in a cold sweat when he saw that.
In that instant, the Kun clearly noticed him and even turned around to look at him.
But perhaps it felt that a small guy like Li Mu was not enough to fill the gap between its teeth, so it didn't pay attention to him at all.
"Damn, this world is really too dangerous."
Li Mu suddenly felt that he was really lucky to fly in the sky and burrow into the ground before. He didn't encounter any other creatures except for the Flaming Humiliation Cow.
He still ignored the danger of this place.
Li Mu thought about it, took out the armor pill sent by Cyan Fox Deity Bi Yan, and activated it. A layer of cyan soft armor covered his body. Just like the kun, he slowly became invisible and disappeared in the air. He also isolated all the aura to avoid being targeted by other ferocious beasts.
Half a day later.
Li Mu encountered all kinds of dangers for the time being, and he didn't encounter any traces of other talents.
"No, with my strength, I was so embarrassed and almost died several times. What about the other talents? The top 20 talents, relying on their powerful cultivation and some secret treasures, may be safe, but those talents between the top 100 and the top 80 entering this place are just like sending themselves to death, aren't they? "
As Li Mu thought about it, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Moreover, if it was really so dangerous, why were there so many talents below the top 20 still fighting to enter the Secret Realm of Heaven Fox?
Were they all so afraid of death?
"What's wrong?"
Such doubts arose in Li Mu's mind, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.
He had no choice but to turn his attention back to looking for the Heaven Nourishing Soul Grass.
"According to the information, the Heaven Reviving Grass grows on the edge of the forbidden areas of the Bone Mountains. It's a magic herb that grows in the place where vitality and death Qi gather. It has the power of Yin and Yang, balancing the reincarnation of life and death, so it can repair the broken soul … So, I have to take the risk."
Li Mu flew around, crossed the ocean again, and returned to the place where he came from.
He absolutely didn't dare to get close to the sky-reaching white bone pillar.
Finally, Li Mu found a relatively small white bone mountain area, slowly approached the foot of the mountain, and began to look for magic herbs in a jungle.
Pharmacist Dongguo had let Li Mu read the ancient book that described the Heaven Reviving Grass many times, so he already had a very good understanding of the appearance of this magic herb.
However, to Li Mu's disappointment, he didn't find it.
Fortunately, he didn't disturb the evil spirits in this bone mountain area.
In the next day and night, Li Mu searched more than 20 areas in the periphery of the mountain of white bones, but he did not find the Heaven Nourishing Soul-restoring Grass.
"Maybe it's because these small white bone mountains don't have enough Yin Qi?"
Li Mu hesitated.
He felt that he might have to go to the bigger and more dangerous bone mountains to take the risk.
No matter what, he had to save the girl with the scimitar.
Li Mu made up his mind and was about to set off.
At that moment, five streams of light suddenly streaked across the sky.
"Help! Is there anyone? Please save us …" Panicked shouts came from the flowing light.
