That afternoon, Old Man Xun offered a high price for the Purple Light Fruit and a series of other materials. The entire Wanshan Town was in an uproar.
The Purple Light Fruit was originally a hundred taels of silver per tael, but now it had been pushed to two hundred taels. The price of the wine grass and other supplementary materials had also increased by thirty percent!
The Ye Family's Ye Kuang personally led a large group of hunters into the mountains to search for treasures. The Xu and Wang Family's forces followed Xu Haoran and Wang Xun to the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
The group of people were all working for Ye Qinghan, but they were completely unaware of it.
Ye Qinghan sped up his cultivation. Time was running out. If he did not reach the Blood Ignition Realm, his life would be at the gates of hell.
Ye Qinghan looked at the remaining one-third of the Blood Ginseng, which was less than half a catty. He gave a fifth of it to Ye Mengxi and swallowed the rest. His body was filled with energy, and his blood and Qi were almost burning as he dug out his potential.
Hu hu hu …
Ye Qinghan performed the Ye Family Style with vigor and vigor. Little Mengxi followed beside him, and her movements were synchronized. It was extremely pleasing to watch.
"Tiger Leaves the Cage!"
… …
"Dragon Fights in the Wild!"
Boom boom boom … hu hu …
The two of them improved very quickly, especially Ye Mengxi. She was young, but her perception was fast. With the blood ginseng's effects, she quickly broke through the sixth level of Qi Cultivation and entered the seventh level, becoming an early stage martial artist. However, her strength was not great, but her qi was as vast as the sea. It surged in her qi sea and opened it up to the half-step Perfection Realm.
Ye Qinghan gradually approached the peak of the eighth level of Body Refinement. His strength had reached forty thousand jin, and a single punch was enough to crush a rank 1 beast like a bear or tiger! There would not be any problems moving within a hundred miles of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
The blood ginseng's spirit energy had been exhausted and had completely merged with his blood and bones.
"Big Brother has something to do. You should cultivate the Ethereal Flying Steps well. When you reach the Blood Ignition Realm, I will teach you the Ultimate Dragon God Steps."
"Okay!" Ye Mengxi nodded seriously and cultivated with even more vigor.
Ye Qinghan looked around and did not find where the parrot went. Even his senses were very weak. It should have gone beyond a hundred miles.
"This fellow is so fast. I've only been cultivating for an hour and it's already 50 kilometers away." Ye Qinghan was rather speechless.
The bitter cold was about to descend. Judging from the color of the sky, it was likely going to snow soon. Ye Qinghan frowned and walked towards the front yard.
Old Man Xun reclined comfortably in his chair. When he sensed Ye Qinghan's arrival, he said, "Wait patiently. The Purple Light Fruits will arrive in an endless stream very soon."
"I'm afraid it's going to snow. Within two days, the snow will definitely seal off the mountain," Ye Qinghan said with certainty.
"Snow sealing the mountain? It's fine. I've already asked someone to purchase the Purple Light Fruit and other materials from Jiangning County. Furthermore, I've also applied for a sales channel from the Spirit Treasures Pavilion's Lord Deacon. I believe that the Elder will definitely be interested. "Old Man Xun raised his eyebrows and looked outside. He discovered that the sky was bright and the air had become abnormally cold.
"Before the snow seals the mountains, ten thousand beasts will roar in unison. There will be a beast tide. Don't you understand?" Ye Qinghan asked with a frown.
"Ah? Beast tide! " Old Man Xun finally became serious. His expression was solemn as he recalled that all the young adults of Wanshan Town had already entered the Shiwan Mountains.
Unknowingly, Wang Shi walked in from the backyard. When she heard that there was a beast tide, her expression changed drastically. She hurriedly said, "Qinghan, Mr. Xun, go and inform them to hurry back to town. Once there's a beast tide, it's all over."
"There's no time. It'll snow in two hours at the latest. According to the weather, four hours is enough to seal off the mountain. I won't be able to find them and bring them out in four hours. Mother, don't worry about this matter. Furthermore, if we repay evil with good, how will they repay good?" Ye Qinghan said softly.
"Sigh … You said it yourself. All the young adults of Wanshan Town have entered the Shiwan Mountains. If something happens to all of them, how many more mothers and sons will there be like us in this town? Moreover, I owe the Ye Family. If I hadn't been so stubborn back then … "Wang Shi was sad. She was still kind and willing to repay evil with good.
Ye Qinghan slowly walked towards the main gate. He saw that the snow was already falling like goose feathers. It looked extremely beautiful, but it contained a life-threatening danger.
Roar …
Within the Shiwan Mountains, tens of thousands of beasts roared and rushed out of their nests. They were ready to search for the last bit of food to survive the bitter days when the snow sealed off the mountain.
The beasts roared and killed each other. More and more first-grade beasts wreaked havoc and devoured the beasts that were not of the first-grade. Blood flowed like a river.
The snow came without warning. It was as if the sky had been broken. It poured out and instantly covered the mountains. Heaven and earth were silvery white.
The three hunter families were in trouble. A large number of beasts wreaked havoc. The beast tide made them feel desperate.
"Gather quickly! Gather! Archers on the inside and martial artists on the outside! "
"Whoosh —"
Several air-piercing sounds caused a large number of warriors to rush to the gathering point. The hundreds of people from the three families were in a mess. In just a few breaths, more than ten people were injured.
Ye Kuang was shocked. His face was solemn. Looking at the white snow falling, his heart turned cold.
The raging wind caused everyone to lose their sense of direction. Although the snow did not completely seal off the mountain, it blocked everyone's vision.
"Does the heavens want us to die?" Ye Kuang exclaimed.
Roar … Roar …
The lions roared and the wild wolves howled as they surrounded the people from Myriad Mountain Town. Thousands of ferocious beasts surrounded the experts from the three clans.
"Ye Kuang! Wang Xun, let's cooperate and gather together. Otherwise, we will have no chance of survival! " Xu Haoran was now in the 9th level of the Body Refinement Realm. He quickly calmed down and shouted at the Ye and Wang families.
"Quick, break out of the encirclement and gather!"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh … Swoosh swoosh swoosh …
Three huge circles began to rotate. The archers were desperately shooting arrows. Their hands were sore, but they had no choice but to give it their all. The warriors on the outer circle were fighting and supporting each other to prevent the archers from being attacked. The innermost circle was filled with the younger generation of the three families.
At this moment, the eyes of the younger generation were filled with despair. They had never seen so many beasts rushing towards them. Many of them were even ranked beasts. Ranked beasts were extremely powerful, comparable to a human in the 4th or 5th level of the Body Refinement Realm.
"It's over!"
"Ah! Father, I want to go home … "
Xu Zimeng, Wang Xiaoyun, Ye Changlong, Ye Conghu, and the others from the Ye family were all trembling in fear. They had no fighting power and could only rely on the older generation to protect them.
"Shut up, all of you! Save your strength and prepare to replace your uncles for a while. "Xu Haoran shouted.
… …
In Wanshan Town, Ye Qinghan shook his head. He knew that the situation was already set in stone. Those who entered Wanshan Town would have no chance. In this kind of weather, once they entered 50 li into the mountains, even a Blood Ignition Realm cultivator would die.
"What a pity. This time, the Ye, Wang, and Xu families have all moved out. Those at home are all old, weak, sick, and disabled. Our future days won't be easy." Old Man Xun was sad and helpless.
At this moment, many women, children, and elders rushed in from outside the Spirit Treasures Pavilion and knelt down.
"We beg Mister Xun to save our husband. Our family's laborers have all entered the mountains to search for the Purple Light Fruit. Now that the snow has sealed the mountains, they can't come out!"
"We beg Grandpa Xun to save our father!"
These people were all ordinary women and children from Wanshan Town. They were not from the Wang, Xu, and Ye families!
Ye Qinghan's expression changed slightly. It seemed that there were more than a few hundred people entering the mountains. There could be more than a thousand people!
These people had all entered the mountains because Old Man Xun had announced that he was buying the Purple Light Fruit at a high price. Old Man Xun and Ye Qinghan were partly responsible for this.
"I will enter the mountains to search for them. After all, I am still in the Blood Ignition Realm. I might be able to come out," Old Man Xun said through gritted teeth.
"The snow will get heavier and heavier. You won't have a chance to enter the mountains. Moreover, your martial technique is the Scarlet Fire Palm. In the Hundred Thousand Mountains where the cold snow has sealed the mountains, your Blood Ignition Realm cultivator will at most be able to display the strength of a peak martial artist," Ye Qinghan said in a deep voice.
"Then what should we do? We can't just watch as close to a thousand people die in the Hundred Thousand Mountains! "Old Man Xun said helplessly.
Ye Qinghan was silent. He looked at the sky and knew that if he entered the mountains, he wouldn't be able to distinguish the direction even if he was surrounded by white snow. He also had to deal with so many ferocious beasts.
A large group of women and children knelt outside the door. They weren't willing to listen to Old Man Xun's words. In their opinion, if Old Man Xun went, then there would be a chance. If he didn't go, then there would be no chance at all.
"Xiu … This divine bird has returned. I found a treasure." The parrot turned into a bolt of lightning and shot onto Ye Qinghan's shoulder.
"Master, I found a treasure. 120 li away from the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there is a cave with a large amount of Stalactite Essence. Hehe …" The parrot covered Ye Qinghan's ear and whispered.
"How did you find your way back in such heavy snow?" Ye Qinghan's eyes flashed as he asked in a low voice.
"I just flew back like this. How could this little snow make this divine bird lose its way?" The parrot said disdainfully.
"If we enter the mountains now, can you still find your way back?" Ye Qinghan hurriedly asked.
"Absolutely no problem. By the way, when I came back, I saw that group of bastards. Hehe, they were surrounded by many ferocious beasts. I even cheered for them for a while …" The parrot said proudly.
Ye Qinghan was overjoyed. He quickly said to Wang Shi, "Mother, I will go into the mountains to save them. Give me your Qiankun bag."
Wang Shi had a large Qiankun bag. She had it when she was still the little princess of the Broken Sword Peak. She had never used it until now. Ye Qinghan naturally knew about it.
"Are you sure you can come back?" Wang Shi was quite worried and somewhat unwilling. It wasn't that she didn't care about the lives of so many people, but she cared too much about Ye Qinghan.
"No problem. The parrot can recognize the way." Ye Qinghan hurriedly stretched out his hand to ask for the Qiankun bag.
Wang Shi took out the Qiankun bag tied to her waist. She trembled slightly and handed it over to Ye Qinghan.
Ye Qinghan took the Qiankun bag and said to old man Xun, "Before I come back, you are not allowed to leave Meng Xi and my mother's side, no matter how important the matter is. Let little Meng Xi teach you the 'Ethereal Flying Immortal'."
Whoosh —
After Ye Qinghan finished speaking, he rushed into the heavy snow with the parrot.
"All of you, get up and go home to wait in peace. Qinghan has already entered the mountains. He is stronger than me. If he can't save them, I will be even more powerless." Old man Xun said in a low voice.
