"Refreshing! Refreshing!"

"Come again, come again!"

If the battle result on Luo Chen's side on the Snow Wolf Plateau was the most important, then Elder Fu Jiusheng and Wang Yuan's side was undoubtedly the most shocking.

For no other reason!

It was because the battle mode of the person and wolf fighting inside was too simple and crude.

They abandoned flashy magic treasures and external objects, and discarded spells and demon arts that were slow to release.

All that remained were the fierce, life-and-death collisions between the person and the wolf.

Neither of them was purely cultivating their physique.

Wang Yuan was bolstered by Qi and blood force, while the wolf king was covered in demon power.

Therefore, under head-on collisions, massive invisible energy vented in all directions, whipping up a thousand layers of wind and snow.

Wang Yuan was fighting with great excitement!

Since stepping into the cultivation world, he hadn't fought this refreshingly for a long time.

Enemies in the past either ganged up on him or had too high a realm, forming an absolute suppression.

Occasionally, those who fought him one-on-one often only competed in combat techniques.

In terms of pure physical bombardment, perhaps only Luo Chen could let him fight with all his might.

But for the sake of cultivation, saving magic power, and not wanting to cause too much of a stir, Luo Chen rarely sparred with him.

Only today!

With Elder Fu Jiusheng suppressing the formation, he had no more worries and fought this third-tier early-stage Snow Wolf King with all his might.

Even if he suffered the most losses in every battle.

But every time he retreated, he would return again, dead-set on entangling the opponent.

In this process, he continuously operated the four types of Qi energy he had realized.

Ming Jin (External Force), An Jin (Internal Force), Hua Jin (Neutralizing Force), and Dan Jin (Core Force).

Used in succession, alternating and changing, lingering around his whole body, allowing him to block the enemy's attacks time and time again.

As blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, he was full of excitement.

"Luo Chen was not wrong; my opportunity is not on the arena, but on the battlefield!"

"The feeling that appeared just now... that's it, if I find that feeling again, I will definitely be able to gather my intent and form a core!"

Just as he was covered in injuries but his fighting spirit was growing stronger with every battle.

Elder Fu Jiusheng's joyful voice came from behind.

"The array is complete, Wang Yuan, hold this evil beast!"

Is the array complete?

Wang Yuan felt a bit regretful.

He could feel that in this life-and-death battle, the feeling that had appeared several times was precisely the opportunity for him to gather his intent and form a core.

If he continued...

"Forget it, there will definitely be battles later, I don't need to be in a hurry."

"Let's win this battle first!"

With a thought, his eyes spat fire, and he stepped out with his giant feet again, rushing toward the demon wolf.

While running, blood-colored giant pythons appeared on his back, which were the blood pythons condensed from Dan Jin.

After approaching the demon wolf, he took a Demon Moon Slash head-on, and then the blood-colored giant pythons flew out, binding the wolf king tightly.

Seeing him drag the demon wolf down, Elder Fu Jiusheng's array was instantly activated.

Rays of light rose from the ground.

They gathered in the air, condensing into a mirror.

The mirror suddenly inverted, emitting a beam of light as thick as a water bucket, which shot down and hit the wolf king directly.

Boom!

"Awooo!"

A miserable cry was emitted suddenly.

Under that giant beam of light, the wolf king was directly pressed onto the ground, completely unable to move.

"Alright, having been hit by my array, it can no longer break free. Wang Yuan, you can withdraw."

Elder Fu Jiusheng said with satisfaction.

He did not strangle the beast as he had said before, but had the idea of capturing it alive.

It was really because Wang Yuan was too fierce and brave, winning him too much time.

In this way, since it could be captured alive, why kill it?

With such a third-tier demon king, whether it was used to guard the mountain or sold, it could reap huge profits.

His future cultivation resources might depend on this third-tier Snow Wolf King.

Of course!

Wang Yuan had contributed greatly to this battle, and he was already mentally prepared to share half the profits.

On the ground.

The blood-colored giant pythons slowly retracted, drilling into Wang Yuan's body.

His Giant Spirit Transformation could not be maintained for much longer.

His form slowly shrank, and Wang Yuan looked at the hideous wounds on his body where flesh and blood were flying, as well as the dislocated bones in his body, and could not help but let out a long sigh of relief.

He had won after all!

As for the matter of breaking through the realm, although he didn't break through under pressure on the battlefield.

But he had captured a glimpse of that feeling.

As long as he comprehended it well later...

Just as his mind relaxed, a light sound suddenly arose in the void.

Like a spirit snake flicking its tongue, hissing for an instant.

Whoosh!

Wang Yuan's soul was terrified; in the face of a life-and-death crisis, he spared no effort to mobilize the Qi energy in his body to cover his whole body.

In his vision, a white light flashed and disappeared.

Five hundred miles away from the Snow Wolf Plateau, on a small mountain.

A Daoist looked at the water mirror in front of him with satisfaction.

"Taking one strike from me, there is no chance of survival."

"This mission is considered complete!"

Just as he was about to leave with satisfaction.

A furious sound exploded in the sky.

"Bastard!"

Accompanied by a thunderous explosion, there was also a giant palm print wreathed in endless green flames, which slapped down.

The Daoist frowned and raised a shield.

"Not right!"

The moment the shield came into contact with the palm print, his expression changed drastically.

Boom!

A terrifying explosion erupted instantly.

That shield only blocked it for a moment before it disintegrated into four or five pieces.

The flame palm print pressed down fiercely.

The entire small mountain was leveled alive in an instant.

The terrifying air wave, centered on the original location of the small mountain, pushed outward like a rumbling tide.

And there were strange flames that seemed to devour life, permeating the surging air wave.

This shocking scene stunned everyone.

Whoosh!

A red figure descended above the small mountain.

Looking at the giant concave hole on the ground and the endless dust, Luo Chen's expression was gloomy.

His massive spiritual sense spread out like a net, and a pair of cold eyes filled with spiritual light scanned all directions.

Ran away?

"You petty person, don't let me catch you!"

Luo Chen threw out harsh words hatefully, then flew to Elder Fu Jiusheng's side without looking back.

"How is the situation?"

"Not very good, the one who ambushed Wang Yuan was definitely a Golden Core cultivator, and this magic power is extremely insidious."

"I'll do it!"

Luo Chen did not hesitate, pressing a hand onto Wang Yuan's back.

Pure wood-type spiritual power surged in, searching for the insidious magic power that was continuously destroying Wang Yuan's body.

"Don't stay here, go quickly to resolve the demon beasts."

Elder Fu Jiusheng hesitated, "And this Snow Wolf King?"

A fierce look flashed across Luo Chen's face, and his left hand flicked, the Profound Xuan Xuan Huo Jian turning into a shooting star and piercing into the head of the struggling third-tier demon wolf.

When the Profound Xuan Xuan Huo Jian flew out of its body, the demon wolf no longer had any signs of life.

"Don't be blinded by small gains, remember our strategic goal this time!"

Elder Fu Jiusheng looked at the demon wolf's corpse with regret, then joined the battle.

With him joining, the battle situation between humans and wolves, which had been a fierce struggle, instantly appeared one-sided.

And the last living wolf king was also quickly killed by Di Wuqi and Jiang Yu joining forces with Cen Qiusheng.

On the Snow Wolf Plateau, the situation was settled and unstoppable!

Inside a canyon.

The masked Xiaoxiangzi stood with his hands behind his back, looking at this unique terrain with a leisurely gaze.

If they fought here, using the terrain to set up an array, even a Golden Core cultivator would find it hard to escape with their life, right!

Suddenly, his eyes moved.

Pfft!

On the ground, a figure crawled out.

As soon as he came out, he spat out a mouthful of blood that was steaming with heat.

Xiaoxiangzi frowned, "To assassinate a Foundation Establishment junior, why did it come to this?"

That figure was extremely disheveled, and the Daoist robe he was wearing was covered in traces of being roasted by fire.

He wiped the blood and said hatefully, "Why don't you go try it?"

Xiaoxiangzi looked him over for a long time, then suddenly asked, "Did Alchemist Danchenzi make a move?"

The Daoist said with lingering fear, "It was him; it is rumored that this person is skilled in fire magic, and now that I see it, it is indeed well-deserved. His realm is clearly not very high, but a single spell almost made me fold outside the Snow Wolf Plateau."

"Did you expose your true face?"

The Daoist shook his head, "From so far away, I naturally didn't expose it. The only trace left behind was probably my incomplete defensive magic treasure, which was actually blasted into fragments by him."

In the cultivation world, there are so many magic tools and magic treasures.

Even rare magic treasures actually have many existing ones of the same style.

Relying on an incomplete defensive magic treasure, the other party would definitely not be able to find the true culprit.

Xiaoxiangzi breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. That Wang Yuan damaged the reputation of our Huanzhu Tower on the arena of the Po Yue Immortal City. If we don't kill him and let him continue to be active, our Huanzhu Tower's business won't be easy to do in the future. By the way, Wang Yuan is dead, right?"

The Daoist hesitated.

Under Xiaoxiangzi's increasingly suspicious gaze, he hurriedly said, "He must be dead; don't you trust the methods of me, Hundred-Damage Daoist?"

Xiaoxiangzi gave a grunt.

He knew how formidable Hundred-Damage Daoist was.

His realm is not high, and his head-on combat is not very strong, but he is a leader in sneak attacks and assassinations.

Even in the Huanzhu Tower, he is listed among the five golden-medal assassins.

Sending him to assassinate Wang Yuan was already using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken; if this still couldn't succeed, he would have to consider whether to kick Hundred-Damage out of the Huanzhu Tower.

"Alright, this matter is over, you go back to the base to heal your injuries first!"

Hundred-Damage Daoist hesitated, "That Alchemist Danchenzi has a personality of returning every grievance; I hurt his subordinate, I'm afraid he won't let it go."

"Heh, why bother about him." Xiaoxiangzi curled his lips, "His focus is not on grievances and fighting now, he won't find trouble for us. Besides... our Huanzhu Tower is least afraid of trouble!"

Inside the mountain belly of the Snow Wolf Plateau.

In a giant mountain cave filled with spiritual Qi, Luo Chen was continuously pinching spiritual seals with both hands.

Various medical techniques were cast in turns at this moment.

At the very end, he gritted his teeth and directly used achievement points to enter the secret technique for clearing out foreign magic power that he had exchanged from Jin Buque of the Five Elements God Sect.

"Dragon-Slaying Technique"

Slay the evil dragon in the body and achieve a flawless body.

The grade of this technique was as high as the fourth tier, and he had spent a full 500,000 spirit stones for Jin Buque to sell it to him.

However, the effect of this technique was also very unique.

It could not only clear out foreign magic power, but when cultivated to the Great Perfection stage, even evil ghosts, ghostly Qi, and fierce filth could be removed.

After Luo Chen got it, besides giving a copy to Chu Kui, he also kept a copy for himself.

He discovered that this technique had the same effect as the Cleaning Spell.

He had intended to study it slowly, but now that Wang Yuan was in critical condition, he couldn't wait.

Fortunately!

With the Great Perfection Cleaning Spell as a foundation, entering this technique only cost Luo Chen 20 achievement points, which was still within the acceptable range.

When the "Dragon-Slaying Technique" was entered, mysterious experiences surged in Luo Chen's heart.

Afterward, pure magic power surged from his Golden Core, following a unique magic power circulation route, continuously slaying the insidious magic power in Wang Yuan's body.

After several hours passed.

In the quiet room.

A black Qi suddenly surged on Wang Yuan's face.

Immediately, he opened his mouth and spat.

"Pfft!"

A mouthful of black blood landed on the ground, actually corroding the hard floor into bubbles.

Looking at this scene, Luo Chen breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"How do you feel?"

Wang Yuan opened his eyes weakly and grinned, revealing his white teeth.

"Feel... very good!"

"Eh?"

"I know how to gather my intent and form a core."

"Ah, this..."

For a time, Luo Chen actually didn't know what to say.

But now was not the time to discuss breaking through the realm.

He said directly, "I still have many things to do next; your injury needs quiet recuperation, and I cannot spend more magic power on you."

"Mm, I know."

"Regarding that enemy..."

Wang Yuan pointed at his chest, where a wisp of insidious Qi was looming.

"No matter, I will solve this matter myself after I step into the Furnace Realm."

"As long as you have a plan in your heart, if you need help, just call me then."

Luo Chen nodded, left some healing elixirs for Wang Yuan, and walked out of the cave.

When he arrived at the pitted and messy Snow Wolf Plateau.

Di Wuqi and the others surrounded him at the first opportunity.

"How is Wang Yuan?"

"No problem, his life is saved."

Luo Chen did not mention that Wang Yuan had a blessing in disguise and had grasped the opportunity to advance.

There was no need to mention it, only saying the decision to let Wang Yuan stay on the Snow Wolf Plateau to heal.

The others naturally had no objections.

In this battle, Wang Yuan had shown his value, being able to resist a third-tier demon beast head-on.

This ability could barely be counted as a Golden Core level combat power.

Elder Fu Jiusheng felt a bit guilty, as he had only been concerned with suppressing that wolf king at the time and had not had time to guard against the sneak attack.

Wang Yuan had fought side-by-side with him after all.

Almost ending up in a situation of being ambushed to death, he really didn't feel very good in his heart at this moment.

Di Wuqi didn't have such feelings, and he asked impatiently, "So what now?"

At this moment, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and white snow and blood were mixed together, emitting an indescribable, disgusting, fishy smell.

At the foot of the mountain, streaks of light rose and fell, and they were cleaning up the battlefield.

As Luo Chen's gaze wandered, those who occasionally made eye contact with him hurriedly stopped their work and bowed respectfully to him.

It was not just the Luo Tian Sect cultivators, but even the cultivators from the Cen family and the Wind and Rain Villa acted this way.

At the beginning of the battle, they had clearly seen the scene where Luo Chen resisted the attacks of the three demon wolves on the low-level cultivators with his own strength.

Withdrawing his gaze, Luo Chen pursed his lips and said, "No time to lose, the Snow Wolf Plateau is settled, the next target is the Dream-Returning Ridge!"

Hearing this, the four were invigorated.

They had already investigated clearly that the Snow Wolf Plateau was the best among the small third-tier spiritual veins, enough to supply three Golden Core cultivators to cultivate continuously.

If they could take down the Dream-Returning Ridge and the Iron Green Mountain according to the established strategy, they would have no worries about cultivation in the future.

Luo Chen began to issue orders.

Cen Qiusheng would lead all the alliance cultivators to guard the Snow Wolf Plateau.

Elder Fu Jiusheng would also stay.

However, his task was to set up arrays, draw the power of the earth veins, and prepare for Luo Chen and the others to move the mountain at any time.

Then there were Di Wuqi and Jiang Yu, who would step onto the Red Flame Dragon Boat with him and rush toward the Dream-Returning Ridge.

The reason for calling these two was that the three of them had fought side-by-side not long ago and had already developed some tacit understanding.

And with the alliance treaty, there was no worry about anyone stabbing them in the back.

The three of them boarded the Red Flame Dragon Boat together.

Xu Huanzhen did not hesitate, commanding the Luo Tian Sect cultivators under his command to drive this behemoth.

Under the cover of night, the giant flying boat began to turn slowly.

Afterward, it flew toward the south.

Inside the quiet room, Luo Chen checked his own state.

After a fierce battle and healing Wang Yuan, his magic power was still maintained at about 60 percent.

As for the magic treasures on his hand, the Profound Xuan Xuan Huo Jian was fine, and the three Soul-Breaking Nails had no damage.

Only the Sky-Moon Purple Gold Wheel had slight damage during the process of skinning the Snow Wolf King alive, and it was also stained with a lot of the filth from Jiang Yu's Rain-Calling Banner, causing damage to its spirituality.

However, Jiang Yu was also very generous and sent the antidote over.

Luo Chen was now splashing the specially-made antidote spiritual liquid onto the Sky-Moon Purple Gold Wheel.

The spirituality of this magic treasure also gradually began to recover.

But wanting to recover to its initial peak state was still far off.

Set magic treasures are like this.

The power is extremely strong, and the disadvantage is that it is difficult to control and easily damaged.

"When I have time, I still have to ask the cultivators of Tianfan City to repair it a little."

Luo Chen put away the Sky-Moon Purple Gold Wheel, and two top-grade spirit stones appeared in his hand instantly.

He operated his life-bound cultivation technique and began to seize the time to absorb spiritual Qi and convert it into magic power.

Time passed slowly...

By the time it was dawn.

Di Wuqi's voice came from outside the door.

"Fellow Daoist, the Dream-Returning Ridge has arrived!"

Luo Chen opened his eyes, and a clear, brilliant light flashed and disappeared.

His whole body turned into a clear breeze and floated out of the quiet room.
