With the rise of my family, I can summon the Daoist Soldiers' Nest.
Chapter 148: Search Unsuccessful, Encounter with the Cold Dragon
By the time Lin Ye and the two Supreme Elders, Ning and Liang, returned to the mountain peak, two days had quietly passed.
Along the way, Lin Ye's superb lightness skills attracted the attention of the two elders.
Ning Wuji gave it a very high evaluation, saying that even in a fight between martial artists who had acquired their skills, this kind of movement technique would be enough to save one's life.
In terms of short-range burst speed, even within the Tang Dynasty, it is second to none among acquired martial artists.
Apart from the top-tier experts from those powerful forces with deep foundations, ordinary martial artists are generally inferior in terms of speed, making it virtually impossible for them to catch up with Lin Ye in a short-distance sprint.
Upon returning to the team, Lin Ye once again demonstrated his extraordinary skill of crossing the river on a reed in front of all the elders. His graceful and composed demeanor finally put the eagerly awaiting crowd at ease.
The elders had already discerned from Ning and Liang's expressions and demeanor that there was no problem with the nest contract this time; it was indeed Lin Ye's good fortune.
After a brief discussion, everyone reached a consensus.
Given Lin Ye's incredible luck and his superb lightness skill that was enough to protect himself, the next exploration mission was entrusted entirely to Lin Ye as the vanguard.
Everyone hoped that, with his luck, he could discover more rare and precious treasures on the island.
For more than a month afterward, the Qingyuan Sword Sect group conducted a thorough search of the mountain.
Although they hunted down several spirit beasts and found seven or eight rare treasures, unfortunately, most of these gains were of limited quality.
For the top elders present, it was better than nothing, and in the end, it could only be used as provisions to be taken back to the sect and rewarded to the true disciples.
Faced with this result, Lin Ye could only smile wryly and sigh that perhaps his luck had been exhausted in the previous adventures.
With their return date fast approaching, and to avoid any unforeseen complications while also allowing time for their return voyage, the group had no choice but to cease their search and begin preparations for their journey home, thus concluding their exploration of Raize.
On the way down the mountain, at Lin Ye's suggestion, the group decided to abandon the original route and take another turn on the other side of the mountain, making an extra bend before returning to the place where the boat was moored. This way, they might be able to gain something new.
Elder Liang Feiyu's gaze swept over the eager expressions of the people around him, and he recalled the thorough investigation of the situation across the island over the past month.
After confirming that the other two remaining forces on the island were weaker than their own, and weighing the pros and cons, they finally nodded in agreement to the new route.
Lin Ye once again led the way, his figure constantly weaving through the dense forest, leaping and bounding among the branches.
After more than a month of repeated practice and familiarization, Lin Ye's mastery of lightness skill has reached a level of perfection.
Moreover, Lin Ye keenly noticed that his agility attribute seemed to be steadily improving subtly.
This change is consistent with the characteristics of the Sky Green Grass, a top-tier spiritual item. Its function is not a one-time consumable, but rather it will continuously and steadily enhance the user's agility talent as their strength improves.
This benefit is not only reflected in the speed and grace of light footwork, but also extends to agility.
Because his spear had been lost, Lin Ye had to temporarily use the swords carried by the elders, and at first he felt quite inexperienced with them.
But as he increased his attack frequency, he discovered that his attack speed also increased significantly along with his agility.
Despite being limited by his aptitude and comprehension, his understanding of the subtleties of swordsmanship did not make a qualitative leap.
However, with this unprecedented speed of sword strikes and swings, Lin Ye's swordsmanship has suddenly become incredibly powerful.
Even when facing top-tier elders who specialize in swordsmanship, he can fight to a standstill and not be at a disadvantage in the slightest.
That day, the group was heading towards the foot of the mountain, with Lin Ye leading the way as usual.
Standing atop the tree canopy, one can see a particularly tall ancient tree in the distance, within the reach of the forest leaves.
Its canopy glows with an eerie red light, like a burning flame, making it stand out from the lush greenery.
Although the distance was too great for them to identify the specific species, they could tell from their intuition that there must be some extraordinary spiritual creature hidden in that tree.
Lin Ye used his lightness skill, his body moving slowly like a feather as he approached.
When he reached the tree and looked up, he realized that the so-called red light actually came from a Ganoderma lucidum growing at the top of the tree.
This mushroom was as large as a pot lid, translucent red, and shimmering with spiritual light. Even from a distance, Lin Ye could almost smell its refreshing fragrance, which instantly invigorated him.
"A primordial spiritual object! This is definitely a primordial spiritual object!" Lin Ye was overjoyed.
The Jade Lotus, a previously acquired spiritual object, had never brought such a strong sensation; the Lingzhi mushroom before him was undoubtedly of a higher grade.
However, just as Lin Ye was feeling excited, a piercing hissing sound suddenly came from under the tree.
Lin Ye looked closely and saw two giant white pythons, each five or six zhang long and as thick as a water bucket, coiled under the tree.
The two enormous creatures locked their gazes firmly onto the leaves of the tree, their tongues flicking in and out of their mouths. With each breath, a layer of white mist quickly condensed in the surrounding air.
Upon closer inspection, one can also discern a pair of small horns faintly emerging from the top of their heads.
"It's a Cold Dragon!"
In a flash, alarm bells rang in Lin Ye's mind. Without hesitation, he turned and ran, simultaneously shouting a sharp alarm signal, ordering the Sword Sect members behind him to scatter and flee.
This is clearly a primordial spirit beast, the Frost Dragon.
According to the ancient records of the Sword Sect, the innate spirit beast discovered on the island was the Cold Dragon.
However, when this beast was discovered, it inhabited a mountaintop with thin air and extreme cold, which was the most suitable environment for its survival.
To my utter surprise, two of the Frost Dragons appeared at the foot of the mountain!
Judging from this, it must have been attracted by that rare and precious plant that resembles a lingzhi mushroom, which is why it appeared here so mysteriously.
While Lin Ye was thinking rapidly in his mind, he pushed his lightness skill to the limit, leaping between the treetops one after another.
At the same time, the elders in the rear, upon hearing the warning, also fled in all directions for their lives.
What was alarming was that the cold dragon was hot on its heels.
Although its body is as large as a bucket, it is exceptionally agile in its movement through the trees, unlike the clumsy Moon-Gazing Rhinoceros that charged around recklessly, breaking trees and slowing down.
This frost dragon was incredibly fast; wherever it passed, the branches and leaves were quickly covered with a layer of frost.
Meanwhile, the other cold dragon remained in place, guarding the Ganoderma lucidum, which instantly rendered Lin Ye's original plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain ineffective.
Fortunately, after all this commotion, Lin Ye's lightness skill was no longer what it used to be, and the elders had already scattered and fled.
Although the cold dragon was extremely fast, it was ultimately unable to catch up with Lin Ye in the complex forest terrain. After chasing for a while, it let out a screech and turned back.
Faced with two Frost Dragons at the Innate Realm, even though they were guarding Innate Spiritual Objects, the group lost all hope.
After this experience, Lin Ye and the others became even more cautious and dared not be careless in the slightest. In the end, they returned safely to their mooring place without any real danger.
