Mortal: Fight monsters and upgrade, I will enjoy immortality!

Above an endless desert, a young man with three short golden horns on his forehead stood in the air with his hands behind his back, saying something to a dozen men and women with short horns of various colors gathered in front of him.

These men and women all had expressions of shock on their faces, as if they had heard something unbelievable.

Wherever this young man's eyes swept across, no one dared to look directly at him. Instead, they lowered their heads slightly and showed a look of awe.

The young man nodded in satisfaction and said calmly: "What I just said is the important matter arranged by the elders of the tribe. As long as this is accomplished, our Jiaochi tribe will usher in another leap forward and will definitely become the strongest race in the spirit world within ten thousand years.

For this operation, several elders in the clan even sacrificed their vitality and borrowed the clone of Xuantian's treasure to refine five heaven-defying treasures for us. They also activated several hidden players in the Tianyun clan to attract their attention. I don't need to repeat the importance of this! "

"Don't worry, Special Envoy. We will do our best to complete this mission." After hearing the content of the operation, these men and women were extremely excited. It was a great honor for the tribe to have the opportunity to participate in this operation.

"Very good. Although there are more than a dozen teams from our clan entering the Guanghan Realm this time, only the five teams that possess the treasures are truly responsible for this matter. The rest are just auxiliary, responsible for covering our actions to prevent other races from seeing through anything. Now, let's set off according to the original plan!" The young man with golden horns nodded with satisfaction, and then gave an order.

So, led by the young man with golden horns, this team of Jiaochi people flew deep into the desert.

……

In a dense forest, on a clearing where vegetation had been cleared, Ye Ming, Liu Shuier and Shi Kun were staring intently at a screen of light in front of them.

The light curtain is dozens of feet long and wide, emitting a hazy yellow light. Mountains, rivers and streams are scattered on it, densely packed together. They seem to be only the size of beans, but the mountaintops are lifelike, forming miniature scenes of several feet in size. The mystery of it is really indescribable.

Liu Shui'er pointed at the light curtain with one hand, and the whole light curtain suddenly shone brightly. Under the dim yellow light, suddenly a white light the size of an egg slowly emerged from a corner of the map, and then hovered a few feet above a certain block, motionless.

"Wanqin Ridge! We are actually in Wanqin Ridge..." When Liu Shuier saw clearly what was displayed on the white light, she exclaimed in horror.

"What? Fairy, you must have seen it right. This is actually such a dangerous place as Wanqin Ridge." Shi Kun's face also changed drastically.

"This map treasure was specially made by my master. Although it can only be activated in the Guanghan Realm, my master has already introduced the general situation of the realm to me in detail. How could I be wrong?" Liu Shuier said with a wry smile.

Hearing this, Ye Ming's face changed slightly and he remembered the introduction about Wanqin Ridge.

Since he was going to enter Guanghan Realm, he naturally read a lot of books about Guanghan Realm beforehand. Among them, various famous dangerous places were one of the indispensable contents. After all, there were many Mahayana beings in it. If he accidentally entered the territory of these evil creatures, he might lose his life.

Wanqinling is one of the more famous areas.

As the name suggests, there are tens of thousands of various spiritual birds living in Wanqin Ridge, with their cultivation levels ranging from Qi training to fusion, and even some in the Mahayana stage. It is said that there are three creatures living here that have been famous since ancient times and whose magical powers are comparable to those of real spirits.

"The only thing to be thankful for is that we are not in the central area of ​​Wanqin Ridge, so we shouldn't encounter those three ancient ferocious beasts." Liu Shui'er patted his chest and said after observing for a moment.

"Where is the forbidden site we are going to?" Ye Ming asked after taking a deep breath.

"The fastest route is to walk along the outskirts of Wanqin Ridge from here, then cross the Dark Beast Forest, and walk a distance to get there. If everything goes well, we can get there in three or four months." Shi Kun had obviously thought about this problem when he was observing the map just now, and he said it out loud when Ye Ming asked.

"However, the outer area of ​​Wanqin Ridge is so vast that the probability of encountering a Saint-level demon bird is quite high. Moreover, the Dark Beast Forest is not so easy to cross. It is said that those dark beasts that have long been extinct in the spiritual world are nothing during the day, but at night, their strength can immediately increase several times. It is also extremely dangerous to want to cross there." Liu Shuier said with a frown.

"If we don't go this way, do you want to take a detour? You should know that it will take three or four months to walk there like this. Moreover, once we leave Wanqin Ridge, we will reach the waters of the Eight Evil Seas, which is an even more dangerous place, home to eight ancient ferocious beasts. We will have to bypass the Eight Evil Seas at that time. If we bypass the Dark Beast Forest, it will take us at least twice as long. In this way, when we finish visiting the forbidden site, we will have no time to find a place to retreat and break through the bottleneck." Shi Kun asked back.

"Even so, for the sake of safety, we should try to take a detour and move along the edge junctions of these places. Although it will take a lot more distance and time, this is the most secure way to complete the task assigned by the master. I think, before coming in, Senior Duan must have told you, Brother Shi, the importance of this task. Aren't you afraid of being severely punished for failing to complete the task?" Liu Shui'er still didn't want to take too much risk.

"Shi chose the shortcut because he wanted to complete the mission. This way, he can take care of both the mission and the retreat. Why not do it? I believe that the danger you mentioned can be dealt with with the combined strength of the three of us."

"But……"

"You two, stop arguing." Seeing that the two were still arguing, Ye Ming quickly stopped them.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, what do you think?" The two turned their heads at the same time.

"Fairy Liu, what you are worried about is nothing more than encountering a saint-level demon bird or dark beast, but I believe that I still have some strength. I don't think existence of this level should be able to stop us. So, let's go according to what Fellow Daoist Shi said, and try to get there as soon as possible." Ye Ming said a few words while touching his chin.

He was also thinking about getting the infusion as soon as possible, and then going out to look for treasure. In his impression, the Jiao Chi tribe seemed to be plotting something extremely important, and Ye Ming was thinking about whether he should go and snatch that thing away.

"Hahaha, well, Brother Ye is still decisive enough!" Shi Kun laughed.

Liu Shuier's expression under her cloak changed for a few times, and finally she sighed and agreed to this opinion, but she couldn't help but feel worried in private.

Knowing that they were in danger, the three of them no longer flew at full speed as before, but instead restrained their breath and tried not to attract the attention of the powerful demon bird.

But the entire mountain range and forest are inhabited by various kinds of strange birds. No matter how careful they are, they cannot avoid being discovered by them.

When passing by an inconspicuous coniferous forest, tens of thousands of strange birds suddenly rushed out of the forest. These strange birds were only the size of a fist, and looked a bit like hummingbirds, but they had a sharp beak about a foot long.

At first, the three of them didn't care much about these monster birds that were only at the Jindan and Yuanying stages, thinking they could be easily killed. However, not only were the bodies of these strange birds extremely hard, making it difficult to kill them with ordinary attacks, but their sharp beaks could easily peck into the mana shield and absorb the mana in the monks' bodies.

They did not rush out of the encirclement of the strange hummingbirds immediately and were surrounded by them.

Amidst the noisy chirping sounds, countless strange hummingbirds frantically attacked Ye Ming and the other two.

Shi Kun's face was ferocious, he kept shouting, and swung his arms, his two yellow fists quickly hitting the strange hummingbird beside him.

Every time he threw a punch, the fist suddenly expanded like a balloon, becoming five or six times larger than before. Several yellow runes flashed on the huge fist, which spun around and then exploded.

Deep yellow halos emerged and emitted circles of wavy light patterns.

As dozens of strange hummingbirds came into contact with the yellow light, they seemed to be stirred by an invisible force. Their feathers fell off, and they raised their heads, let out a mournful cry, and fell down with their necks tilted.

This cleared a small space, but more hummingbirds rushed up fearlessly, pecking at the yellow light on Shi Kun's body with their long sharp beaks, causing his magic power to be quickly consumed.
