The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

Chapter 2999 The Great World of Mountains

Watching the old dog and the demon immortal head towards the mountain's treasure, Zheng Tuo quietly changed his form and began to observe the massive mountain range.

Come on.

He originally wanted to stop Yao Ruxian from setting foot on the mountain's treasures so early.

The reason is simple: the mountain treasure has only recently appeared, and no one knows the details of its existence.

It's better to be safe than sorry. What if there's some kind of trap set up against them, the wall breakers? Wouldn't that be like walking into a trap?

Therefore, he did not stop Yao Ruxian from entering the mountain's treasure, because he understood that he could not stop Yao Ruxian.

Old Dog is Yao Ruxian's protector and has done Yao Ruxian a great favor.

Now that the old dog's lifespan is nearing its end, Yao Ruxian will not stand idly by and watch the old dog die and disappear.

It will definitely help the old dog find the Fountain of Youth.

Since he couldn't stop them, he didn't, hoping that nothing would happen to either of them.

With these thoughts in mind, he stepped onto the flying boat and circled the enormous mountain range to observe the treasure.

The mountain treasure, as it appears, is not actually as huge as one might imagine.

Before long, they had circled the entire area.

Through his observations, he discovered that the mountain range was lush and verdant, with trees, rivers, peaks, and even living creatures.

Those creatures did not appear to be ordinary creatures; they seemed to be spirits formed from power, living in the mountains and by the water.

That's where the strange thing is.

Old Dog and Yao Ruxian had clearly gone to the treasure in the mountain range, but now he could not see them anywhere.

It seems that within the treasures of this mountain range lies another world.

Everything he saw at that moment was just an illusion.

Given that it is a priceless treasure, it is reasonable for it to possess such abilities.

He did not act rashly, as he was still unaware of the situation and decided to play it safe for the time being.

With a flicker, he arrived at a nearby celestial stele.

Sitting upright before the immortal stele, they quietly awaited the opportune moment.

The news that the Fountain of Youth was a hidden treasure in the mountains spread quickly.

One by one, those who broke through the barriers arrived, including many acquaintances Zheng Tuo knew.

He did not acknowledge these people. In his opinion, it was best to stay in the shadows. If he were to acknowledge them at this moment, it might bring him a lot of trouble.

Thinking to himself, he looked at the barrier-breakers who had arrived.

Some stayed where they were, continuing to observe like him, while others, as if afraid that the Fountain of Youth would be taken away, immediately entered the treasure of the mountain range.

And so a long time passed.

strange?
Why are there only powerful individuals entering the mountain's treasure trove, but none coming out?

He was extremely wary of this!
soon.

His doubts were dispelled.

Those who broke through the barrier emerged from the treasures of the mountain range.

Upon closer inspection, the man appeared severely injured, clearly having experienced some kind of major battle.

Great battle!

That shouldn't be happening!

Zheng Tuo was completely astonished!

A battle between those who break through the barriers will inevitably cause a huge upheaval.

He kept an eye on the mountain's treasures from the outside, but did not sense the slightest fighting aura of the Breaker.

The powerful individuals who had also remained where they were and had not gone to the mountain's treasures immediately went forward to inquire after seeing someone return injured.

After inquiring, it was learned that there was a vast world within the treasures of the mountain range.

That vast world was extremely wide, and contained many dangerous areas.

He accidentally stumbled into a dangerous area and nearly perished.

Zheng Tuo was not surprised that the dangerous area could kill those who broke through the walls.

The Wallbreakers are merely relatively powerful beings; moreover, all the Wallbreakers present are at the first level of the Wallbreaker realm.

Then.

The injured man then revealed another bombshell piece of news.

The Fountain of Youth is indeed among the treasures of the mountain range. Moreover, not only the Fountain of Youth, but also peerless elixirs exist in that great world.

Based on this deduction, some have asserted that the mountain's treasure is the medicinal garden of a powerful eighth-level Breakthrough Realm expert.

Upon hearing this, everyone lost their composure.

For them, the eighth level of the Breaker Realm was like a mortal looking up to a Breaker Realm—a realm they could never reach in their entire lives.

It is not surprising that such a medicinal garden exists, containing the Fountain of Immortality and unparalleled elixirs.

The news of this explosion spread among the crowd, immediately drawing all those who broke through the barriers to the treasures of the mountain range.

Especially some old antiques that are nearing the end of their lifespan.

They desperately need the fountain of youth or some extraordinary elixir to prolong their lives.

Now that they have such an opportunity, how could they remain calm?

Several beams of light flashed and rushed towards the treasure within the mountain range.

Watching the powerful figures enter the treasures of the mountain range, Zheng Tuo felt somewhat tempted.

It's true that he possesses unparalleled elixirs, but who could refuse one or even several more?

Logically, he should set off now, venture into the mountain's treasure trove, and begin searching for various treasures.

But he played it safe.

What's the rush?

Now that a powerful figure has just emerged from the treasures of the mountains, it is difficult to be convincing based solely on his word.

Not in a hurry.

hold on!
He has little need for the Fountain of Youth and peerless elixirs. If they are available, he will do his best to obtain them; if not, it doesn't matter.

and so.

He sat upright, observing the treasures of the mountain range while studying the immortal stele in front of him.

The immortal patterns on the immortal stele are still blurry and indistinct, but they look ancient and majestic, having gone through countless years.

I don't know how much time passed again.

Someone emerged again from among the treasures of the mountain range.

After the man came out, he didn't say a word and looked rather erratic, as if he wanted to leave the place.

"stop!"

Several powerful figures stopped the man and questioned him.

We are all beings who have broken through barriers; if we were to fight, neither of us would gain an advantage.

Seeing that he was about to suffer a loss, the man immediately took out a porcelain bottle, opened it, and drank the liquid inside in one gulp.

"That is!"

"Fountain of Youth!"

The aura of the Fountain of Youth swept across the area like a hurricane.

All eyes turned to the old man.

The old man chuckled, "Gentlemen, I have already drunk from the Fountain of Youth, so even if you kill me, it won't do you any good."

As the old man spoke, he immediately activated his power.

Then.

People then saw the old man aging at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Her white hair turned jet black in an instant, and her dry skin became smooth and delicate in the blink of an eye.

What was originally a frail old man has now transformed into a middle-aged man.

"Three hundred years!"

The old man was very satisfied with this.

"Just one spring of youth has extended my life by three hundred years!"

Upon hearing this, the people around him were completely taken aback.

"What on earth happened?!" someone asked anxiously.

The man who had become young looked around at the people around him.

"Why don't you go in and see for yourselves? Why ask me here?"

As the man spoke, he prepared to re-enter the mountain's treasure trove to continue his search for the Fountain of Youth.

"Fellow Daoist, I hope you can point me in the right direction," someone said politely.

The man stopped and looked at the crowd. "It's nothing much. This treasure is a vast world inside, and we don't know exactly what level it's at, but there are many treasures inside, including the Fountain of Youth. I was lucky enough to snatch a bit of it when we were fighting for it."

Such words are sure to move anyone who hears them.

In particular, many hesitant old-timers made up their minds at this moment and began their adventure into the treasures of the mountains.

The two powerful figures who emerged from the mountain's treasure both described the situation within it.

almost.

After careful analysis, Zheng Tuo felt it was about time for him to enter. With that thought in mind, he got up, left the location of the Immortal Stele, and went to the treasure of the mountain range.

Looking at the mountain range treasures before him, he got up and flew towards them.

As he drew closer to the mountain treasure, its appearance began to become clearer in his eyes.

With the mountain range becoming increasingly clear, treasures are on display.

hum!
An inexplicable force passed by him.

next moment.

He landed in a mountain forest.

Huh?
This is?

Looking up, there is an endless blue sky and white clouds overhead, and below is a mountain forest landscape.

He tried to take off and look around.

He was indeed in a mountain forest, and he activated his pupil technique, trying to see through the sky.

however.

It was all in vain.

The sky seemed endless, completely unfathomable.

but.

There was a portal in the sky.

It seems that the portal was the passage to the outside world.

With that thought in mind, he immediately headed towards the location of the portal.

Upon arriving at the portal, he flipped over and entered. The next moment, he was pleasantly surprised to find that he had left the mountain's treasure.

well.

Only after confirming that he could successfully leave the mountain treasure did he feel relieved and begin to explore this vast world.

Just as the two powerful figures who left this great world said before.

This mountain range is an immense and vast world, its creator unknown, and the surrounding spatial barriers are exceptionally strong.

He attempted to attack the surrounding spatial barriers.

With his current combat power, he could at most create a ripple, which was not enough to shake the surrounding spatial barrier.

So it is calculated that...

The creator of this great world must be at least a fourth-level Breaker, or even a fifth-level Breaker or higher.

Could it be that...?
Could it be that the creator of this great world was truly a being at the eighth level of the Breakthrough Realm?

As he pondered this, a thought struck him, and he located the mark left by Yao Ruxian.

Following the marks left by Yao Ruxian, he began to move forward along the path that Yao Ruxian and the old dog had taken.

The spiritual energy concentration in this mountain range is extremely high, several times stronger than that of the outside world, even by mere perception.

As he continued his journey, he saw the creatures living in this vast world.

These creatures all looked no different from those in the outside world.

He descended to the ground, seized some living beings, and tried to find some clues about this world from them.

pity.

These creatures showed no signs of power.

They were all ordinary creatures, except for their somewhat strange appearance.

strange?
Logically speaking, such a vast world should not be without cultivators.

To know.

In all the great worlds he encountered, there were local practitioners.

Those who break through barriers will pass on their legacy to the local powerhouses of the Great World, so that they can cultivate their legacy.

However, there was no trace of the inheritor in this vast world.

With that thought in mind, he continued on his way.

He encountered no danger along the way, as if this vast world was inherently without any danger.

suddenly!

A huge tremor was heard ahead.

There are beings at the level of wallbreakers fighting.

Upon closer inspection, it was clear that two beings at the level of Wall Breakers were fighting desperately for a small purple herb.

The purple grass looked unremarkable, only about the size of a palm with two leaves.

How could such an ordinary little grass provoke such a fierce battle between two ancient figures?

Zheng Tuo was completely puzzled.

Could it be!

This seemingly ordinary little grass in front of me could not possibly be the nascent form of a peerless elixir!
He thought to himself as he cautiously approached to observe the small purple plant.

suddenly!

The purple grass seemed to have noticed his presence.

He swayed his body, and immediately, a purple halo rushed towards him.

not good!

Zheng Tuo retreated quickly, not wanting to get his hands on the purple grass.

Just then, he suddenly turned around.

He didn't know when, but his surroundings were now full of those small purple grasses.

At this moment.

He was completely surrounded by a patch of purple grass.

hum!
A purple aura surged, sealing off his surroundings.

Zheng Tuo dared not be careless and immediately activated his own power in an attempt to shield the purple halo.

But the moment he made contact, he was greatly alarmed!
The purple aura was actually a soul attack!
hum!
He suddenly felt his soul being struck.

Followed by.

A thought suddenly occurred to him.

"A peerless elixir seedling!"

The scent of the purple grass was actually the scent of a peerless elixir.

Surely I can't be that lucky!
I had only been here a short time when I encountered the seedling of a peerless elixir.

No wonder those two old fogies were fighting like their lives depended on it.

Don't underestimate this mere seedling of a peerless elixir. If you possess it and use the power of the elixir to nourish yourself, you can also achieve the effect of prolonging your life.

In order to survive, the two old men fought desperately, neither holding back.

Seeing the two fighting so fiercely, Zheng Tuo tried to hide in the shadows, looking for an opportunity to strike and seize the seedling of the peerless immortal medicine.

however.

Those two old fogies, locked in a life-or-death struggle, had already discovered his presence.

Without any hesitation, the two joined forces and attacked Zheng Tuo.

"not good!"

Zheng Tuo rolled over to avoid it, trying to escape from the place.

"You want to leave? If you leave, you will attract more powerful people who will kill you and eliminate any future troubles."

The two old-timers seemed to be good friends, and at this moment they were cooperating very well, forcefully encircling and suppressing Zheng Tuo.

"Fellow Daoists, I have no intention of competing with you. I hope you will not be angry."

Zheng Tuo retreated rapidly.

He had no desire to engage in a life-or-death struggle with someone here.

It's difficult for a Wall Breaker of the same level to kill another Wall Breaker of the same level; if they want to run, the other party definitely can't catch up.

and so.

He remained completely calm and did not rush to flee.

He moved with lightning speed, dodging the two old men's tricks and trying to communicate with them.

“Fellow Daoists, the three of us can easily share the seedlings of the peerless immortal medicine equally. Why must we fight like this? It benefits no one.”

Zheng Tuo tried to persuade the two to stop, but to little avail.

The two old men, as if possessed, frantically attacked him, trying to kill him on the spot.

Seeing that communication was fruitless, and not wanting to fight either of them, Zheng Tuo realized that communication was not working and that he did not want to fight them.

Having no other option, he turned and ran.

however.

He had just set off to try to escape when he realized something was wrong.

He was astonished to discover that no matter how fast he went, it seemed impossible to escape this sea of ​​purple flowers.

This is!

Could it be?
Is it a naturally formed maze?
