While they were talking —
A group of people finally came out.
The person at the front was a young girl who was at most sixteen years old. Her skin was like jade, and she was wearing an incomparably precious dress that perfectly accentuated her exquisite figure. Although she was young, her development was indeed quite good. She was curvy in all the right places, and she looked petite, but she gave people a kind of unique beauty.
In particular, her body naturally exuded an innate noble temperament. When all these qualities were mixed together, it gave people a unique charm. It was not the slightest bit inferior to those mature women. She had a country-toppling appearance.
If one looked carefully, one could see that there was a hint of slyness in her eyes, which showed that this girl was definitely not a virtuous woman. She had an unconventional temperament.
There were two men beside her. The one on the left was holding a folding fan. He was a young man with an elegant demeanor. He was half a step behind her, and there was always a faint smile on his handsome face. He gave off an amiable aura, and people couldn't help but feel close to him. His gorgeous blue brocade clothes were obviously not something that ordinary people could wear.
The one on the right was about 18 or 19 years old. A sword with two strange gems on the scabbard was hanging on his waist. Unlike the man on the left, this young man did not show much joy or anger on his face. Vaguely, there was a trace of fierce aura on his body. When he looked at the girl, there was a trace of undisguised heat in his eyes.
Then, there was a girl who was dressed as a maid. She was not old, only about 18 years old. Different from ordinary maids, she was holding a simple long sword in her hand. Following behind them, there was only a slight sound under her feet. Her eyes never left the girl in front of her.
From the conversation earlier, it could be deduced that the young lady walking in front should be a princess of Chu, and one of the two men must have the surname of Qin. The last sentence that was filled with envy should have been uttered by the maid behind them.
"Princess Chu Yun." The young man on the right, who had a sharp aura around him, said calmly, "The Tiger Hill Mountain Range extends for more than ten thousand miles. The entire area is shrouded in a dense forest. There are all kinds of ferocious beasts and poisonous creatures living in the mountain range. I have already asked the experienced hunters in the village about it."
"Oh!! What did the hunter say? "Princess Chu Yun's eyes lit up as she hurriedly asked.
"Qin Hai, you don't have to keep us in suspense anymore. If you find out anything, just say it directly. A mere Tiger Hill Mountain Range shouldn't be a problem for us. "The gentle-looking young man smiled and waved his folding fan elegantly a few times.
Qin Hai glanced at him with a strange look in his eyes. "Zheng Baichuan, although you're also a disciple of the Lianyun sect, you're only at the fourth layer of Qi Refining. You're not much stronger than the experts of the jianghu in the secular world. There are some places that you can't enter as you please. It will be too late for regrets. "
"Ugh! When Zheng Baichuan heard this, his expression changed slightly, and he closed his fan with a snap. However, he did not immediately refute.
"According to the hunters, there are a large number of birds and beasts in the Tiger Hill Mountain Range. Many of them are in groups. Once a stranger enters, most of them will attack the person. Just at the edge of the mountain range alone, several people die in the mountain range every year. Therefore, very few people dare to walk into the mountain range. It's said that some people have seen fierce tigers and a large group of wolves in the mountain range. "Qin Hai did not pay too much attention to Zheng Baichuan and began to talk about what he had heard.
"There are tigers?" When Princess Chu Yun heard the name of the king of beasts, she was not afraid. Instead, her eyes flashed with a sly light, and her face was full of interest. It seemed that she was definitely not a well-behaved person.
"There are wolves?" Zheng Baichuan's expression changed immediately. Obviously, he was more concerned about this matter.
One had to know that the scariest thing in the forest was being targeted by a pack of wolves. As everyone knew, wolves were social animals. They often appeared in groups. It was possible for there to be hundreds or even thousands of wolves at a time. One wolf might not be scary, but if there were a pack of wolves, even a tiger would have to retreat temporarily.
Once there was a swarm of wolves, no matter how powerful they were, they would have to face the awkward situation of two fists being outnumbered. Even if they were strong, as long as they had not entered a profound realm and become an immortal cultivator, they would have to consider carefully when facing a pack of wolves.
In the cultivation realm, there were low to high levels: Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation. Let's not talk about the later levels for now.
Qi Refinement alone was the meaning of refining energy into Qi. It was divided into twelve levels, and the cultivation was spiritual power. If one did not have a corresponding spiritual root in their body, they would not be able to cultivate the cultivation methods in the Qi Refinement stage. This was because even if they were given the cultivation methods, they would not be able to enter the door.
The reason was very simple.
People in the martial arts world cultivated True Qi. As long as one had a little talent in martial arts, they could achieve some success. The only difference was the size of the achievement. It was a cultivation method that continuously developed the potential of the human body. It did not require too many factors.
Cultivators, on the other hand, relied on the spiritual root in their body to absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. Therefore, they cultivated spiritual power, which was completely different from True Qi. People without spiritual roots could not feel the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth outside their body. Naturally, they could not absorb it and could not embark on the path of immortal cultivation.
As one could imagine, immortal cultivation was not a simple matter. The innate conditions one possessed were very important.
There were good spiritual roots and bad ones. A good spiritual root would obviously absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth much faster than a poor one. Perhaps, a person with a poor spiritual root would only need to cultivate for a month, while a person with a supreme spiritual root would only need to cultivate for a day or half a day. The difference was immeasurable.
In fact, in the Qi Refinement stage, especially in the early stage, the strength of people in the Qi Refinement stage was about the same as the people in the Jianghu. For example, Zheng Baichuan was now in the fourth stage of Qi Refinement. His true strength was in the realm of the top masters in the Jianghu. He did not have the inhuman strength of immortal cultivators. If he really encountered a pack of wolves, if he was not careful, he would still be buried in their mouths.
"Princess, since Tiger Hill Mountain Range is so dangerous, why don't we just not go in? Let's play somewhere else and then return to the palace." The maid holding the sword also changed her expression and advised.
"No!!" Princess Chu Yun refused without hesitation. "It's not easy for us to leave the palace. I don't want to go back empty-handed. Didn't they say there were tigers in the mountain? This time, I have to catch a tiger and bring it back as a gift for Father." She was now interested in tigers. How could she be willing to go back so easily?
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much. Tiger Hill Mountain Range might really be dangerous. However, this time, we brought 300 experienced soldiers from the Gray Wolf Army. Every one of them was personally trained by my father. They are iron-blooded soldiers who crawled out from the dead. Later, we will prepare to enter the forest. Even if there is any danger, there is no need to be afraid."
When Qin Hai mentioned the Gray Wolf Army, his eyes revealed a deep sense of confidence and pride. It was as if this army could give people endless confidence.
Princess Chu Yun heard this and was overjoyed. She said, "Then I will leave everything to Brother Qin. Anyway, Brother Qin also has spiritual roots. When the Lianyun Sect's ancestor comes, I will ask him to take Brother Qin into the sect as well."
As a member of the royal family, even though Princess Chu Yun was still young, she still knew many tricks. She promised a benefit as soon as she opened her mouth.
When Qin Hai heard this, his eyes lit up. However, he immediately restrained himself and said respectfully, "Thank you, Princess, for your help. Even if I enter the Lianyun Sect, I will still be the Princess's guardian." However, he thought to himself, 'It doesn't matter if I can cultivate or not. What's important is that I can stay by your side and see you every day.'
After the discussion, the group began to prepare various things for entering the mountain. There were many things that needed to be prepared. After entering the mountain, no one knew how long they would stay. Therefore, tents were necessary. In addition, water, food, and other necessities could not be lacking.
… … …
… … … …
At this moment, Di Shitian did not know that an abnormal danger was about to attack him.
Looking at the cave —
A tall black tiger was lying on a wide brown fur. Every strand of fur on its body was extremely smooth. The purple "King" word on its forehead gave it an even more intimidating aura.
A layer of faint black gas emerged from the black tiger's body. The black tiger's body seemed to have a magical suction force. The surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth was quickly sucked into its body.
The black gas outside its body was the demonic aura that Di Shitian had just obtained. Although it was very faint, it meant that he had begun to cultivate. The demonic aura in his body would always follow him. As his cultivation level increased, the demonic aura would become stronger.
Di Shitian's mind had already entered his body at this moment. He secretly operated the "Tiger Roar Technique". Waves of black demonic aura were quickly flowing along the meridians in his body.
At this moment —
The meridians in his body from his head to his tail had already been opened. Even the meridians in his two front legs were connected.
The demonic aura circulated in his meridians. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth from outside entered his body and immediately merged with the demonic aura along his meridians, causing the demonic aura to constantly grow. After a series of changes, the meridians in his body had become quite thick. The demonic aura circulated in his meridians. It could be seen that the demonic aura was only half as thick as his meridians. It could only circulate in his body and his front legs. It did not go through his back legs and connect his meridians to his whole body.
"Ow!!"
After an unknown period of time — Di Shitian opened his eyes and let out a deep roar.
His eyes were full of humanity. However, there was always a touch of indelible coldness in his eyes.
"Swish!!"
Di Shitian quickly stood up. His two hind legs kicked hard on the ground. His body leaped into the air and ran out of the cave. He left the cave and ran to a big tree on the left side of the cave. It was as thick as an adult's thigh. He jumped up with all his strength and stretched out his right front paw to grab the tree.
