The gigantic green wolf had scared off another one of its kind. In order to prevent its prey from being snatched away, it rushed towards Lu Xiaotian.
"Ah …"
Lu Xiaotian took off his basket and screamed as he threw the hatchet in his hand at the green wolf. Taking advantage of the time the green wolf dodged, he used all his strength to run away on the snowy ground. The green wolf only dodged slightly before it sped up and chased after him again. The distance between man and beast rapidly closed.
After escaping to a small slope, Lu Xiaotian lost his footing and fell down the slope, rolling all the way down. The green wolf behind him roared and pounced on him.
Lu Xiaotian was so frightened that he almost didn't dare to look at this terrifying scene.
"Roar!" A much more majestic roar almost made Lu Xiaotian dizzy. Under Lu Xiaotian's incredulous gaze, a gigantic black bear nearly ten feet tall roared and charged towards him. Even the cold ground trembled under the weight of this gigantic beast that weighed more than two thousand pounds. The grey bear displayed agility and speed that didn't match its body.
The originally ferocious green wolf howled in grief as it was sent flying by the gigantic bear's claw without any resistance. The hundred-pound green wolf howled miserably as if it had lost its weight and crashed into a tree more than twenty feet away. The tree that was as thick as an adult's waist shook violently under the impact. The green wolf fell to the ground like a dead object and didn't move again.
The other green wolf had already fled in fright and disappeared without a trace.
Lu Xiaotian was so shocked that he even forgot the pain from the fall. He looked at the gigantic furry bear face in front of him. When the black bear panted, its thick and pungent smell hit its face. It didn't even dare to move.
At this moment, the crisp sound of a flute rang out. The gigantic black bear roared softly and retracted its bear face. After abandoning Lu Xiaotian, it ran in the direction of the flute sound with incomparable gentleness.
Soon after, Lu Xiaotian saw an old man in a black robe, revealing only a pale, wrinkled face. With a flick of his wide sleeves, a gust of wind blew against Lu Xiaotian's face. Before he could react, he had already fainted.
The black-robed old man didn't seem to move, but in just a few steps, he crossed the distance of several zhang and arrived in front of Lu Xiaotian. He took out a colorless and transparent crystal disc and placed Lu Xiaotian's hand on the disc. The crystal disc immediately showed five colors: red, blue, green, gold, and yellow. The five colors swirled together.
"He actually has a Five-Element Hybrid Spiritual Root. That's rare, but his aptitude is a little too poor. Forget it, it's really difficult to find someone with Spiritual Roots in a secular place like the Northern Liang Kingdom. Coincidentally, I don't have any subordinates that I can use, so I can only make do for now."
The black-robed old man's expression was uncertain. After a while, the black-robed old man chanted an incantation. The black bear growled and lowered its head to bite Lu Xiaotian. Then it strode forward, following the black-robed old man. The black-robed old man only lifted his feet slightly, but he was still walking in front of the black bear that was running wildly. The forest was retreating behind him …
A few hours later, in the depths of the Mang Mountains, hundreds of miles away from the Thunder Blade Sect, there was a valley surrounded by white fog.
At the entrance of the valley, there were three vague figures.
"Those bastards from the Divine Firmament Palace are really hot on our trail. We escaped all the way to the Northern Liang Kingdom and finally got rid of them. If these mad dogs continue to chase us, I'm afraid we'll have nowhere to hide. "
A muscular man with a face full of beard said in a muffled voice. He was bare-chested in the cold winter, exposing his bronze-colored skin. A bronze-colored broad axe was hanging on his waist.
"The Divine Firmament Palace is too powerful. It's all the Blood Dwarf's fault. If you weren't so clumsy, how could the Divine Firmament Palace find any clues? We've been homeless for a few years. Now the Spiritual Stones in our hands are almost used up. Are we going to live like ordinary people and eat all kinds of grains? " Among the three people, a young woman in a green dress with a slender scar on her face and a plump figure complained.
"How can you blame me? The practitioners from the Divine Firmament Palace are really powerful. If you didn't have the intention to kill us and rob us of our treasures, how could this happen?" The Blood Dwarf was a man in red clothes. He was only eight or nine years old, but he was already over 40 years old. He had a green beard on his chin. Hearing the words of the young woman in a green dress, he sneered and said, "Besides, if the disciples of the Divine Firmament Palace hadn't forced us, we wouldn't have found such a mysterious valley in such a remote place. This place is full of Spiritual Qi. It must be a treasure land. "
"It's hard to say whether it's a treasure land or a dangerous land. This valley is quite strange. The white fog lingers in the valley, and there seems to be a restriction formation that can isolate Divine Senses. When we enter it, we'll be no different from ordinary people. If we encounter demonic beasts in the valley, I'm afraid we'll be in great danger, "the bearded man said with a serious expression.
The young woman in a green dress said impatiently, "We've almost used up all our Spiritual Stones and elixirs. If we can't replenish our Spiritual Objects, what should we do? No matter how dangerous it is, we still have to go in and explore. Maybe it's a treasure land. Old Freak Geng has been out for several days. If he doesn't come back, I'll have to go in myself. "
"Since that's the case, you can go in and explore." An old and gloomy voice sounded, followed by the muffled sound of a giant black bear stepping on the ground.
The young woman in a green dress' expression changed when she heard this. Then, she pretended to laugh and said, "Don't say that, Fellow Daoist Geng. I was just joking. This valley is quite strange. Fellow Daoist Geng, your cultivation is the most profound among the four of us, and you're also good at refining elixirs. Without you, we wouldn't have the ability to enter this strange valley."
"Fellow Daoist Geng, you're finally back. You've really made us wait for a long time."
Lu Xiaotian was in a daze when he heard a burst of hearty laughter. "Hey, why did you bring back a brat?"
"You're big, so why don't you have the courage? We fled all the way to the Cold Northern Kingdom. Fellow Daoist Geng's Elixir Apprentice didn't manage to escape in time and was killed by the disciples of the Divine Firmament Palace. Naturally, we need to find another Elixir Apprentice." The dwarf laughed and said, "But Fellow Daoist Geng, now that you've found an Elixir Apprentice, shouldn't we choose a time to enter the valley and explore?"
"Yes, the Blood Dwarf hit the nail on the head. Fellow Daoist Geng, although this valley is a little dangerous, it might be a treasure land. What's more, there are no other cultivators here. This is a treasure land bestowed by the heavens."
