Otherworldly Desert Dust

"I think it's not a big deal, after all, it's just a Mountain Guardian, not a Mountain-controlling Level creature." Du Mao was very confident in his current strength. He thought that he could fight the Mountain Suppressing Snow Demon alone.

Just as Du Mao finished speaking, the Snow Demon transformed into an even more terrifying shape. It seemed as if the world had suddenly been swallowed by some dark abyss. The terrifying black wind didn't just blow, nor did it form a dragon ascending to the heavens; instead, it became everything around them.

In an instant, the three of them felt as if they had fallen into this abyssal wind. Even more frightening was that the Snow Demon had grown immensely, no longer climbing a majestic snow mountain, but rather it seemed as if they were climbing on the shoulders and back of the Snow Demon. It was utterly shocking!

"I... I think I might have misjudged. It's a Mountain-controlling Level creature," Fairy Gong Qin said with a slightly pale face.

"Mountain-controlling Level? We can still handle it if we work together, as long as it's not..."

"Shut your mouth right now!" Wu Hen immediately grabbed Du Mao's jaw and forcibly closed it.

Du Mao made a sound like a pig chewing on chaff, but finally, he didn't get to finish his sentence.

"Didn't you realize? Whatever level you mention, it reaches that level!" Wu Hen said seriously.

Fairy Gong Qin also realized this.

Initially, it was just a Snow Demon with decent strength. After a few words, the opponent kept raising its divine rank. She was really afraid that if Du Mao continued talking, he could transform this mythical creature into Si Xue or Si Shan, true god-level beings from myths that even the Ancient Clans worshiped!

"It's really strange. This road should have been peaceful, with at most one or two patrolling mountain demons. How could it become so exaggerated?" Wu Hen hurriedly said.

These words didn't seem to be directed at his two teammates but more like speaking to some mysterious Holy Spirit nearby.

As soon as he finished speaking, the abyssal wind that was swallowing the world actually dissipated, and the scene of the snowy mountain ahead cleared up. As for the Snow Demon, it shed its terrifying snow mountain appearance and turned into two Snow Mountain Demon Apes, which looked much easier to handle.

Fairy Gong Qin looked at the Mountain-controlling Level demon saint, which had indeed turned into two patrolling little demons, and couldn't help but marvel continuously.

"Just drive them away," Wu Hen said to Gong Qin and Du Mao.

Such small demons did not require Wu Hen's intervention. Stay connected with My Virtual Library Empire

After all, it would take him a long time to deal with them, but his two teammates could handle them quickly.

Du Mao wisely closed his mouth and took the initiative. A few True Martial Heavy Palms were enough to scare the Snow Demon into fleeing in all directions, unable to resist at all.

Fairy Gong Qin also casually pointed out an Ice Soul Sword, and the sword light, like an Ice Python, easily knocked the little demons in front of her away.

"Let's go, otherwise it will get dark..." Wu Hen was about to say this when he suddenly realized something and hurriedly changed his tone, "Let's go. Before it gets dark, we should definitely be able to camp under that cedar tree, and we won't encounter any danger tonight. In fact, some small creatures from the snow mountain will even bring us mountain lotus, ice fruits, and Jade Ganoderma as gifts."

Du Mao was dumbfounded upon hearing this.

Bro, did you just make a wish to the Mountain God?

Gong Qin also found it absurd. Who describes things in such detail? Why not directly have Xue Ji dance to entertain us?

...

Before it got dark, the three indeed reached the cedar tree.

They set up a simple tent with furs and were about to make a fire when suddenly, the wind around them stopped.

The warm bonfire illuminated the snowy ground around them. Suddenly, a group of little snow foxes, walking upright, twisted their small bodies and carried a basket of fresh snow mountain fruits on their heads, presenting them to the three of them for tasting, which was incredibly unbelievable?

Du Mao and Gong Qin were both shocked!

Could it be that Wu Hen had cultivated to the realm of "saying and doing"!?

Even many supreme immortals couldn't achieve this.

"Thank you for the gifts."

Wu Hen clasped his hands together and bowed to the snow mountain as if he were conversing with a deity.

Du Mao immediately realized something, and hastily said, "I want to wake up with a ten-thousand-year-old snow ginseng by my pillow so my True Qi can break through to the Heavenly Human Realm!"

"I wish to remove my inner demons and restore my true self," Fairy Gong Qin also said immediately.

Wu Hen was speechless.

Their wishes were even more outrageous. Why not just say they wanted to be invincible in the primordial universe?

The next day, Fairy Gong Qin and Du Mao both eagerly awaited their gifts from Santa Claus.

Unfortunately, Fairy Gong Qin still felt that her mind was cluttered with thoughts and emotions intertwined.

Du Mao also didn't receive the ten-thousand-year-old snow ginseng he wanted.

Seeing their confusion, Wu Hen could only helplessly say, "The Holy Spirits of the snow mountain can satisfy small favors, but what you asked for was indeed too far-fetched. Even if they wanted to show goodwill, they couldn't make it happen."

"Then why did the Snow Demon transform into whatever I mentioned? Could it all have been an illusion?" Du Mao asked.

"It wasn't an illusion," Fairy Gong Qin said confidently.

"Isn't it possible that its true strength can reach the highest level you can imagine? Whatever opponent you desire deep down, it can satisfy?" Wu Hen explained.

"Uh..." Du Mao, embarrassed, didn't know what to say and obediently shut his mouth, silently chanting in his mind: Revere, revere.

The journey was long.

The highest point of Red Snow Mountain was always behind another snow-capped peak.

The three of them didn't know where the highest point of Red Snow Mountain was, only that the summit from which they could overlook the entire Scroll Realm could lead them to the outside world.

"Revere, revere."

For several days, Du Mao kept repeating these four words. On their journey, everything was indeed peaceful and they didn't encounter any other strange events.

As the Earth Light dimmed again, Du Mao, walking in front, suddenly looked up and saw an ancient tiger lying on an ice cliff ahead. It had a pair of saber teeth and wings like those of a sky eagle. Its whole body exuded a thick, bloody red aura, as if it were wearing a flowing red cloak. Its imposing manner was overwhelming and immensely powerful!

Fairy Gong Qin also saw this mythical fierce beast and instinctively looked down at the tiger-skin patterned skirt she was wearing.

But Du Mao didn't realize what it was and raised his head, sincerely saying, "Shouldn't there be only a mountain cat wandering here? Why is it this creature?"

Mountain cat???

Qiong Qi's blood-red eyes instantly locked onto the arrogant and reckless Du Mao. The anger from being underestimated turned into a blazing bloody brilliance!

"Leave immediately, lest my True Qi harm the small Snow Mountain creatures!" Du Mao still didn't realize the danger and continued using Wu Hen's earlier line.

"Bang!!!"

Qiong Qi leaped, its tiger claw striking Du Mao.

Even with True Qi protecting him, Du Mao was sent flying two miles away.

Landing in the snow, Du Mao climbed up in a pathetic state, pointing at Qiong Qi with some irritation and saying, "You! How can you be so unfaithful to martial ethics? Didn't I call you a mountain cat? Why don't you turn into a mountain cat!"

Qiong Qi originally intended to reclaim its dignity, but after Du Mao's provocation, it no longer cared and charged at Du Mao.

"Alright, Mountain Guardian or not, this hero isn't afraid of you!" Du Mao also got angry and grappled with Qiong Qi.

On the side, Fairy Gong Qin glanced at Wu Hen and couldn't help but ask, "That tiger skin, did you strip it from this Qiong Qi?"

Wu Hen nodded.

It seemed they had exited the mysterious snow field of "saying and doing." The fierce Qiong Qi they encountered here was the real Qiong Qi, which must have detected the scent of tiger skin on Wu Hen and Gong Qin and came specifically for revenge.

This three-life Qiong Qi must have had sleepless nights after battling with Wu Hen.

It couldn't figure out how such a little human dared to confront a Mountain Guardian and even stripped a layer of its tiger skin.

Finally, Qiong Qi realized, this human was a reckless idiot.

It didn't even know Wu Hen had multiple lives, so it revealed all its trump cards without reservation. If it hadn't chickened out that day, Wu Hen's flesh would have become Qiong Qi's fat. It wouldn't have become so skinny after the Cold Era!

Truly a foolish expert.

Today, the fierce Qiong Qi, down to two lives from three, came to settle the score!
