"Immortal Maiden’s beauty is unparalleled, captivating the world and surpassing all who ca before. She is the most beautiful cultivator I have ever seen. Her temperant is also extraordinary, like a secluded orchid in an empty valley, a rare treasure both in heaven and on earth," the Nether Fox gushed, flattering her to the utmost.
A smile blood on Mi He’s face.
"You beast, you’re rather amusing. However, I don’t know how to help you advance. As a creature from the Misty Ghost Realm, your opportunity for breakthrough must be sought within that realm."
The Nether Fox rolled its eyes, displeasure evident in its expression. It shifted its feet and retreated behind Song Wen.
Mi He studied the Nether Fox for a mont before losing interest. She turned her gaze to Song Wen.
"Ji Yin, the Beastmaster Sect possesses an item that might aid your Gu in advancing. I can secretly retrieve it and give it to you. But you must do sothing for in return."
"What is it?" Song Wen asked.
"Co with to the Tuocang Mountains to obtain a Spirit Herb called Rainbow Skirt Grass," Mi He replied.
Song Wen’s heart stirred slightly.
Years ago, outside the Divine Blood Hall, Silver Wolf King Xiaoyue had ntioned that Gou Jun had infiltrated the Silver Wolf Clan’s sacred grounds and stolen several Millennial Rainbow Skirt Grass.
After killing Gou Jun, Song Wen had found three Rainbow Skirt Grass in his Storage Ring.
However, Song Wen didn’t know the herb’s purpose and hadn’t used them.
"Rainbow Skirt Grass?" Song Wen asked, feigning confusion. "What is this Spirit Herb’s special use?"
"I’m afraid I can’t reveal its effects," Mi He replied. "Fellow Daoist, just co with to the Tuocang Mountains. Whether or not we succeed in obtaining the Rainbow Skirt Grass, I guarantee I will personally deliver what you need."
Song Wen frowned slightly. "The Tuocang Mountains are overrun with the Demon Race and rife with danger. Shouldn’t you at least tell what treasures the Beastmaster Sect possesses that could help my Gu advance? Otherwise, I’m afraid it will be difficult for to accept your terms."
Mi He pondered for a mont before speaking.
"While the Beastmaster Sect has established its reputation in the Immortal Cultivation World through raising Spirit Beasts, many of our mbers also cultivate Gu. There was once an elder nad Nie Xing who successfully cultivated several Fourth-Tier Gu of different types. Elder Nie Xing developed a pill called the Gu Resonance Pill, which he used to help these Gu smoothly advance to the Fourth-Tier."
"The Beastmaster Sect still possesses three Gu Resonance Pills. I can give you these three pills, along with their Pill Formula and Elder Nie Xing’s Gu Rearing Manual. I believe these should be enough to help your Gu advance."
Song Wen said, "Very well, I accept your terms. When shall we depart for the Tuocang Mountains?"
"Please wait a mont, Fellow Daoist. I need to return to the sect to retrieve a few things. We can leave imdiately afterward," Mi He replied.
After several days of cautious travel, Song Wen and Mi He reached the heart of the Tuocang Mountains.
During this ti, Mi He had given Song Wen a general overview of the Silver Wolf Clan.
The Silver Wolf Clan was one of the dominant forces in the Tuocang Mountains. Not only did they possess several Fourth-Tier Silver Wolves, but they also controlled an unknown number of Fourth-Tier Shadow Beasts, making their overall strength unfathomable.
A direct assault would require the combined might of at least half the Immortal Cultivation World’s strongest cultivators to guarantee victory.
However, the Demon Race was not skilled in crafting Mystic Treasures or formations, nor were they as cunning as humans.
Therefore, if war broke out between the human and demon races, victory could not be determined solely by the number of powerful cultivators on each side.
This was why Song Wen had agreed to accompany Mi He and lend her a hand.
As long as there were no Entrapnt Formations, Song Wen was confident he could escape unscathed even if surrounded by the entire Silver Wolf Clan.
"Ji Yin, we’re entering the core territory of the Silver Wolf Clan. Be extra cautious," Mi He said.
The two stood atop a towering tree, concealing their auras and using the dense foliage to remain hidden.
As dusk approached, both cultivators retracted their Spirit Sense, fearing they might disturb any Silver Wolves that might be lurking in the mountains.
Song Wen surveyed the peaks ahead, from which distant howls occasionally echoed.
"Fellow Daoist Mi He, which direction should we head next?"
While Song Wen had a general understanding of the Silver Wolf Clan’s territory, he knew nothing about the distribution of their core areas or the exact location of their Holy Mountain, their ultimate destination.
Mi He replied, "I don’t know the exact location of the Silver Wolf Clan’s Holy Mountain either. We’ll just have to search carefully."
Song Wen frowned slightly. Two Human cultivators, wandering aimlessly through the Silver Wolf Clan’s core territory, faced unimaginable danger.
Just then, a wolf howl suddenly erupted from a large mountain not far ahead.
The howl sounded sowhat immature, suggesting its source was not particularly powerful.
A glint flashed in Song Wen’s eyes.
"Perhaps we could capture a wolf cub and interrogate it."
The two exchanged a glance and descended along the tree trunk. Then, following the mountain’s contours, they stealthily approached the mountain from which the youthful wolf howl had co.
Monts later.
They reached the mountainside and spotted a Second-Tier Silver Wolf, six feet long, weaving through the forest.
It was chasing a Seven-Colored Little Bird, a Late First-Tier demon beast. Though the bird was only a Late First-Tier demon beast, its agility was remarkable, allowing it to dart effortlessly through the dense trees.
The Silver Wolf also had a pair of wings, but it was clearly still learning to fly. Its flight was clumsy, often crashing into trees or getting tangled in vines.
Moreover, it seed determined to capture the bird alive, leaving it utterly helpless against the agile creature.
"Awoo!"
After failing to catch the bird for so long, the Silver Wolf let out an angry howl.
Hidden behind a large tree, Song Wen flicked his finger, sending a gust of wind whistling toward the bird.
The bird didn’t react in ti and was struck in the head by the gust.
The wind didn’t kill the bird, but it left it dizzy and disoriented.
The little bird flapped its wings erratically, plumting toward the ground in a crooked descent.
The Silver Wolf hadn’t noticed Song Wen’s energy blast, assuming the bird had simply flown too long and grown exhausted.
A gleam of delight flashed in its eyes. With a powerful flap of its wings, it lunged toward the bird.
Thud!
The Silver Wolf crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Carefully, it flipped open its front paws, revealing the Seven-Colored Little Bird.
During the fall, the wolf had deliberately protected the bird, preventing it from directly impacting the ground.
Still, the bird appeared listless, far less energetic than when it had been fleeing.
The Silver Wolf clearly wasn’t satisfied. It placed the bird on the ground and began pawing at it repeatedly.
Suddenly, the light in front of the wolf dimd.
It raised its wolf head and saw two human figures suspended in mid-air before it.
A flicker of panic crossed the Silver Wolf’s eyes, quickly hardening into ferocity. It bared its fangs, ready to pounce.
Slap!
Mi He slapped the wolf’s head with her palm.
The imnse force sent the Silver Wolf tumbling, crashing to the ground.
Its silver-white fur was instantly stained with dead leaves and mud, and a crimson trickle of blood stained its muzzle.
