After I left the sect, the entire sect knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

Chapter 265? Me? Me?

Even when they realize they're being followed by a mouse, they don't panic and pretend they don't see it.

A divine sense swept across a cave in the distance, where a seventh-tier snow bear lived.

She took a liking to that cave!

I originally planned to use a pill to lure out that little thing that burrows in the snow, but now it seems I have to kill the snow bear first.

She put away the medicine bottle, took out a handful of spirit stones and talismans to set up an array, then stood on the boulder and summoned the divine bow to shoot at the snow bear.

Dealing with this kind of powerful but slow behemoth is easy for her.

Enraged, the snow bear emerged from its cave, about to roar loudly to display its power, when it was interrupted by an arrow.

It became even angrier and charged in the direction the arrow had come from.

Its massive size caused a commotion as it ran, and she saw many small creatures scattering and fleeing in the snow.

Huh? There are quite a few "little animals" hiding in the snow?

The snow bear stepped into the formation, and a cage of confinement was erected around it. It crashed into the invisible wall.

Before it could even regain its footing, the arrow flew over and struck its belly!
"Hoohoo!"

The roars of wild beasts filled the air, but she felt no fear. Having witnessed many grand scenes, the roars of wild beasts only invigorated her.

Summoning the two little ones from the space, they transformed into their battle form and eagerly attacked the snow bear.

Lin Yan wanted to end the battle quickly, so she used binding talismans to continuously control the enemy.

Not long after, the snow bear died, and she only had five fifth-grade binding talismans left.

After disposing of the snow bear's carcass, she walked to the cave entrance, used a cleansing spell on it, then took out a barbecue grill and threw in low-grade spirit stones.

A small fireball condensed at his fingertips and he tossed it into the furnace. The spirit stones ignited like firewood. However, the fire was small, barely illuminating the entire cave.

Using low-grade spirit stones as firewood was something she wouldn't have dared to even dream of when she first left the sect.

But things are different now. She's wealthy now, and before she left, the steward even brought her the spirit stones that were mined last month. She could afford to use the lower-grade spirit stones for firewood.

When you're away from home, if you can make yourself comfortable, you won't suffer unnecessary hardships.

The cold-level secret realm was even colder at night; she felt the chill even while wearing her protective robes.

Lin Yan rubbed her hands together, quickly took out a rope and pills from her storage bag, and set up a trap at a location some distance from the cave.

Without having prepared a cage beforehand, she could only use the Immortal Binding Rope to set up a trap, using elixirs as bait.

Back in the cave, she set up barriers inside and at the entrance to prevent cultivators or demonic beasts from entering.

Feeling that wasn't enough, they took out more spirit stones and set up a maze outside the cave.

Back in the cave, she set out a futon and a tea table, and took out the tea set and arranged it.

She boiled water on the stove to make tea for herself, and sat leisurely on the futon to enjoy it, completely out of place with the biting cold wind outside the cave.

This doesn't seem like a training exercise; it looks more like a vacation to enjoy the snow.

After sitting for a while, she heard a noise and quickly went out. She saw that the trap had been set; one end of the binding rope was tied to a rock, and the other end was stuck in the snow.

She pulled the rope straight up and pulled out a white-haired rat the size of a head.

She used the same method to trap another white-haired mouse.

"Squeak..."

Their squeals and kicks were useless. They tried to bite through the rope in the snow, but before they could, they were pulled out and met a pair of cold eyes.

"If you don't behave, I'll roast you!" she threatened. The snow rats, lacking human understanding, didn't know what she was saying, but sensing the oppression and threat, they dared not move.

Back in the cave, Lin Yan took out a communication jade disc and scanned it with the two little creatures. Their introductions appeared on the disc.

When you're out and about and encounter monsters or plants you don't recognize, just scan them with your communication jade disc. As long as they're recorded, you can get their information.

When encountering danger, you can't take out your communication disc to scan while fighting or running, as that would be too jarring. Therefore, it's still very necessary to read relevant books in advance.

These two little creatures are called snow rats, and they are mainly found in the coldest realms and the far north. They feed on snow moss or other plant roots and stems, and occasionally eat non-toxic or mildly toxic insects.

The description above isn't quite right either; this thing requires elixirs!

Perhaps the cultivator who recorded this little creature didn't feed it any pills and didn't know that it also ate pills.

She caught the two snow rats so they would dig holes and shovel the Moonlight Vine King out of the ground, allowing her to obtain it without fighting.

After feeding them, she still didn't untie the snow rats. She left them tied up in front of the stove.

They felt warm and cozy, but were also afraid of the fire, so they could only shiver and warm themselves by the fire.

Lin Yan contacted the white crocodile through a contract in her consciousness.

Do you have the ability to communicate with small animals?

Amit's heart was, after all, a treasure that helped the male protagonist advance in the original story, so it should have some unique abilities, right?

For example, the ability to communicate with other animals...

"Huh? Me? Me? Do you take me for a god?"

"What are you saying? Don't you claim to be a messenger of God? You don't even have this little bit of ability?"

Amit was speechless. How come it hadn't noticed before that its master was being unrealistic and demanding?
"Master, please don't have any expectations of me!"

"Do you know how to communicate with small animals?" she asked again.

Right now, I desperately need the ability to communicate with small animals!

Amit had no idea what his master was doing, so he teleported out of the space.

Seeing the rats tied up beside the stove, he asked in confusion, "Are you trying to communicate with them? When did you become interested in such weak monsters, Master?"

Sensing the white crocodile's hostile gaze, the little mice bared their teeth. But suppressed by the crocodile's bloodline, they silently closed their mouths.

"Rats are the natural enemies of grass-type spirit plants, so I want them to help me dig up Moonlight King Vine."

Amit was speechless for a moment: "You still need to capture the Rat King to dig. There's no need to communicate with the Rat King. Just invade its sea of ​​consciousness, seal its divine sense, and control the Rat King to dig."

Lin Yan suddenly realized how simple this idea was that she hadn't thought of before.

The next second, she was in trouble again.

The method described is simple, but it is not easy to invade the consciousness of living beings.

Small animals with weak consciousness might be okay to try, but the risk of intrusion by a sentient being like the Rat King is very high. Plus, she lacks experience, and she could easily end up becoming mentally impaired herself.

She gave Amit a deep look. "You make it sound so simple. Why don't I go catch the Rat King and you try?"

"Huh? You can't do it? Look, I forgot that my master is still a Golden Core cultivator, and I subconsciously regarded you as my previous master."

It vaguely remembered, yet seemed to remember nothing at all, only subconsciously knowing that its original master was very powerful and could easily control living beings.

Are there any other lower-risk options?

The white crocodile tilted its head and thought for a moment: "Yes~"
