Shi Ji snorted coldly and threw a punch at the cultivator.

The cultivator was sent flying by Shi Ji's punch.

"What's going on? How dare that kid make a move?"

"Is this kid crazy?"

"Is he out of his mind? How dare he launch a sneak attack on us? He's asking for death!"

The remaining cultivators burst into laughter.

Although Shi Ji was quite strong, these cultivators didn't take him seriously at all. They had five or six quasi-emperors on their side, plus other cultivators, making a total of more than thirty people.

With so many experts joining forces, Shi Ji and her group would definitely be no match for them.

"Let's all attack together, kill that kid, and then go find that Nine Yang Immortal Herb!"

The crowd responded and unleashed their powerful magical weapons, charging towards Shi Ji.

Faced with the attacks from these cultivators, Shi Ji sneered, "You're courting death!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Shi Ji slashed out with her sword.

This sword strike contained terrifying power capable of destroying everything; it tore through the void and slashed towards the group of cultivators.

Three cultivators were immediately cut in half at the waist by Shi Ji's stone sword.

Blood splattered everywhere in the air.

Shi Ji took their storage rings and then quickly led everyone away from there.

"Hey, that kid stole our stuff! Brothers, grab your weapons and chase him!"

The cultivators roared repeatedly.

They rushed in from a distance, quickly chasing after Shi Ji and the others.

Shi Ji and her men moved with incredible speed, never stopping for a moment, and in the blink of an eye they had covered hundreds of miles, leaving their pursuers far behind.

"What do we do now?" Long Ling'er asked Shi Ji.

Shi Ji said, "Let's go to a nearby city and buy a Star River Ancient Ship, then we'll explore the Dark Labyrinth!"

Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, never expecting that Shi Ji would suggest going to the Dark Maze.

The Dark Labyrinth is a forbidden zone of death, said to be inhabited by unknown and terrifying creatures; once entered, certain death is almost certain.

But Shi Ji insisted on going on an adventure to the Dark Labyrinth.

Shi Ji said, "My intuition tells me that there must be a great opportunity in this dark labyrinth!"

Hearing Shi Ji's confident words, everyone became excited.

People like Shi Ji believed that there was a great opportunity in the dark labyrinth.

That dark labyrinth must hold countless opportunities.

These opportunities belong to everyone.

Shi Ji said, "Everyone, let's go back the way we came and buy the Star River Ancient Ship!"

Everyone agreed and then turned back.

The city wasn't particularly large, so it was easy to find shops selling the Star River Ancient Ship.

Shi Ji and his group spent tens of millions of immortal stones to buy a Star River Ancient Ship.

Immediately, Shi Ji ordered the Star River Ancient Ship to head towards the Dark Labyrinth.

What secrets are hidden in the dark labyrinth?

Shi Ji was very much looking forward to it.

The dark labyrinth was filled with malevolent and demonic energy.

Shi Ji frowned slightly as he carefully examined the surrounding environment.

The place felt eerie and somewhat unsettling.

This place seems to have nurtured a great deal of powerful, sinister energy.

"This place is really something else! I'm so glad I came, otherwise, who knows what terrible consequences might have occurred!"

Shi Ji couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Then, he sat down cross-legged.

He began to circulate the Supreme Reincarnation Technique he had cultivated within his body.

This Supreme Reincarnation Technique is the most suitable cultivation method for absorbing the Yin and evil energy of this place.

After Shi Ji circulated his cultivation technique, the surrounding Yin and evil energy surged into his dantian like a tide.

The Supreme Reincarnation Technique absorbs Yin and evil energy extremely quickly.

After absorbing approximately 300,000 jin of Yin Sha demonic energy,

Shi Ji slowly opened her eyes.

His face was beaming with immense joy.

This malevolent energy was so powerful that it actually helped Shi Ji condense a rune.

This rune exudes a chilling aura; it is called the "Yin Rune." It can both suppress Yin energy and activate the Yin toxins within it.

Using curses to deal with enemies will definitely be twice as effective.

"Young master, what should we do next?" a young female cultivator asked.

Her name is Bai Yundie. She has a pretty face and looks like the girl next door.

Shi Ji said, "I'll rest for two days and make plans after I've recovered from my injuries!"

"Yes." Everyone responded in unison.

They found a quiet place and each went into seclusion to heal their wounds.

Shi Ji then took out three pieces of immortal-grade armor and put them on. These three pieces of immortal-grade armor were what she had found on the corpses of the three cultivators.

After donning the three pieces of celestial-grade armor, Shi Ji sat cross-legged, activated the Supreme Reincarnation Technique, and devoted herself entirely to cultivation.

He hoped to use these celestial-grade armors to make his combat power even stronger.

Gradually, his body and the armor became more and more perfectly aligned.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

Shi Ji finally managed to fit the three pieces of immortal-grade armor perfectly into his body, and he stood up and stretched.

In an instant, his body crackled and popped.

Shi Ji's physical body underwent a tremendous improvement.

This breakthrough for Shi Ji was far more difficult than any of his previous ones, and required a much larger amount of energy. It was precisely because of this that his cultivation level was able to improve so much.

Under normal circumstances, such a breakthrough would never have been possible.

However, Shi Ji was not worried, because the more breakthroughs she made, the more it proved that this seclusion was extremely successful.

This made Shi Ji very happy.

Suddenly, a violent tremor came from afar.

Shi Ji and the others couldn't help but look into the distance, where they saw a group of people fiercely fighting with a ferocious beast.

Those ferocious beasts were extremely powerful, their bodies surrounded by eerie and terrifying demonic light.

Demonic energy emanated from their bodies.

These ferocious beasts are extremely powerful.

However, when these ferocious beasts encountered human cultivators, they were repelled, and the human cultivators then pursued them relentlessly.

After slaying the ferocious beast, the human cultivators began collecting items from its corpse.

"Hey, aren't those the Black Mountain tribe? We've run into them again!"

At this moment, someone in the Longmen cultivator team exclaimed in surprise.

The Black Mountain tribe is quite a powerful tribe, and is well-known in the border region of the seventy-two northern states.

The tribe has many skilled warriors.

However, the people of this tribe did not like to compete for resources and focused on ascetic practices, so although they were powerful, they were not very prosperous.

Shi Ji looked at the cultivator and asked, "Who are these people? I've never seen them before."

The Longmen cultivator explained, "Young master, these people are from Tiemu Village! It is said that the leader of Tiemu Village is an old man whose lifespan is coming to an end, so he has summoned the younger generation of the tribe to participate in the hunting trial."

The goal was to obtain hunting points and exchange them for a five-colored jade disc! However, most people in Ironwood Village failed, but many others successfully hunted ferocious beasts and obtained a large number of hunting points.

They used their hunting points to exchange for five-colored jade discs. After exchanging some, they had about six thousand discs left!

"Oh?" Shi Ji's eyes flickered slightly. It seems the Black Mountain tribe also knows the value of the Five-Colored Jade Disc.

The five-colored jade disc is indeed of extraordinary value.

Even in the outside world, it would be an extremely rare treasure, but it is not indispensable to the Black Mountain Tribe, so they do not lack the five-colored jade disc.

This made Shi Ji raise an eyebrow slightly.

Shi Ji currently has 40,000 five-colored jade discs in his storage ring, plus the 350 he just obtained from hunting three ferocious beasts, giving him a total of 1,550 five-colored jade discs.

These five-colored jade discs are enough for Shiji's use.

Shi Ji said, "Let's go take a look. Maybe we can even profit from the chaos!"

"Young master, that's a brilliant idea!"

"Let's raid Tiemu Village, those guys are rolling in money!"

Many of the Dragon Gate cultivators smiled and spoke.

They were all eager and impatient, wishing they could rush up immediately and rob the cultivators from Ironwood Village.

However, Shi Ji slowly shook her head and said, "Don't rush! We can't be too hasty! After all, we're new here! If we rashly attack the Tiemu Village tribe, it will definitely cause trouble!"

Moreover, since those guys from Ironwood Village dared to venture into dangerous territory to hunt ferocious beasts, they must have ways to protect themselves. We are not strong enough right now; if we act rashly, we will only suffer losses.

"If you want the Five-Colored Jade Disc, why don't we wait until we're strong enough before making our move!"

"Listen to the young master, we must not act rashly!"

"I think you're absolutely right, young master. Our most important task right now is to improve our cultivation!"

"Come on, follow me."

Shi Ji led his troops and quickly headed towards the battlefield.

They saw the corpses of several ferocious beasts, and Shi Ji tried to unleash her Devouring Martial Soul to devour these corpses.

But after several attempts, all ended in failure.

His Devouring Martial Soul was completely unable to devour these dead ferocious beasts.

Of course, this might be because his cultivation level is still low.

If his cultivation level were strong enough, he might be able to devour these dead ferocious beasts, but he is clearly not strong enough now.

Shi Ji couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Young Master! What are we going to do next? Are we going to continue searching for prey?" Sun Hai asked.

Shi Ji nodded and then said, "Let's go deeper; we might find even more powerful ferocious beasts!"

"Young Master is wise and mighty; we will obey your every command!"

Then, they quickly left.

Half a day later.

They stopped because they felt a powerful sense of oppression.

Not far away, a dense swarm of creatures appeared, all of them ferocious beasts, numbering over a hundred. The weakest among them was estimated to be equivalent to a powerful expert at the Emperor Realm.

The most powerful ones even have cultivation levels comparable to quasi-immortals.

Sun Hai gasped.

"So many ferocious beasts are hiding here, what should we do?"

Sun Hai said, his face pale. He was truly terrified. So many ferocious beasts—if they were surrounded and attacked, wouldn't they be doomed?

Many of the Dragon Gate cultivators turned ashen-faced.

Shi Ji said calmly, "Don't panic! I'll go check the situation first. If we can defeat these ferocious beasts, we'll take their cores; if we can't, we'll retreat!"

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Gate cultivators immediately calmed down.

They followed Shi Ji and flew towards the ferocious beasts.

The mountain range was so vast that Shi Ji and the others were two hundred miles away from the battlefield.

This range was already quite far for Shi Ji and the others.

However, at their speed, they should be able to get close to the battlefield in no more than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Just then, the sounds of fierce fighting came from ahead.

A group of cultivators dressed in black robes were besieging a ferocious beast, which was on the verge of death and about to be killed.

A piercing roar echoed through the heavens and earth, and crimson mist surged from the beast's body.

The crimson mist instantly condensed into a blood-fiend sword, slashing towards the surrounding cultivators.

The attack power of those blood-fiend swords was so formidable that they directly shattered the cultivators who were trapping the ferocious beasts.

The ferocious beasts took this opportunity to escape the encirclement.

"This beast is indeed strange."

A cultivator said in a deep voice, his face somewhat grim.

The others also looked extremely grim.

These ferocious beasts are so powerful that they wouldn't be afraid of a single one.

The key point is that these ferocious beasts live in groups.

If we were robbed, we would surely die.

After discovering Shi Ji and her group of unfamiliar cultivators, the ferocious beasts tracked their movements and pounced on them.

"Run!"

"My God, what are those things? So many ferocious beasts!"

A group of people screamed in terror and turned to flee into the distance.

But the ferocious beasts ignored the cultivators and quickly chased after Shi Ji and the others.

Although Shi Ji and the others were all quite strong, they were utterly no match for these ferocious beasts.

Shi Ji then performed the art of mending the sky.

With a whoosh, it tore through the void and vanished without a trace.

Shi Ji dodged the attacks of these ferocious beasts, and then pulled Sun Hai and the others into the space-time tunnel.

They arrived at an altitude of several hundred meters.

There is a giant floating island here.

That floating island was very special; it seemed to be formed from a rare treasure.

Shi Ji and the others breathed a sigh of relief after landing on the floating island.

"Young master is truly a divine being! He actually managed to evade the pursuit of those ferocious beasts!"

Sun Hai exclaimed in admiration, and the others looked at Shi Ji with great respect. This young master's methods were truly unbelievable.

Shi Ji said, "Gentlemen, what we need to consider now is how to subdue these ferocious beasts."

These monks were all intelligent people, and they naturally understood the meaning behind Shi Ji's words. They began to discuss it.

Soon after.

Shi Ji decided that everyone should go together to capture these ferocious beasts, and each person should capture one.

In this way, the current crisis can be resolved.

Of course, you can also choose not to capture these ferocious beasts.

These ferocious beasts are beyond the capabilities of Shi Ji and the others to deal with at this stage, so they can choose to give up.

After leaving the floating island, Shi Ji and the others quickly flew outwards and soon arrived in the jungle outside.

At this time, Shi Ji and the others encountered another group of cultivators.

The group of cultivators also rushed out of the forest. The two sides met in the jungle and were shocked when they saw each other.

Shi Ji and the female cultivator naturally knew each other; they had met in the Thundercloud Mountains.

Both sides sustained injuries at the time.

Now that we've met again, I'm naturally very upset.

Both of their expressions became uncertain.

The female cultivator said, "Brother, we meet again."

Shi Ji nodded and said, "It seems you've been intercepted as well? How about we join forces?"

The female cultivator said with a wry smile, "Join forces? Are you sure we can defeat those ferocious beasts together? If we can't, I'm afraid we'll be completely wiped out, right?" (End of Chapter)
