Yunmeng Immortal Clan

Chapter 51 The Ghostly Spirit

Song Daoxuan naturally couldn't just stand by and watch his Qingyang Martial Arts School team perish at the hands of demonic beasts, but he also wasn't prepared to reveal his identity as a cultivator in front of these mortals.

So, Song Daoxuan first released the Azure Moon Demon Wolf from his spirit beast pouch and gave Azure Moon a message with his divine sense. Soon, a giant demon wolf with a body of about ten feet appeared in front of everyone.

After releasing the Azure Moon Demon Wolf, Song Daoxuan returned to his team, as if the appearance of the Azure Moon Demon Wolf had nothing to do with him.

"Oh no! Another beast has appeared, Commander Cheng! What should we do? We haven't dealt with that bear yet, and now a lone wolf has appeared. I'm afraid our entire group is going to be wiped out!" A warrior in the squad said nervously, holding a long spear.

Cheng Bantou, who was walking at the front, had seen many scenes. He had danced on the edge of life and death all his life. Even such a person frowned and looked utterly desperate when he saw this scene.

Faced with the despairing words of the other members of the team, his face remained somber for a long time.

Finally, he said it.

"Brothers, I reckon we're doomed this time!"

However, right after Cheng Ban Tou uttered those words, he realized something was extremely wrong.

"Chief Cheng, look, that giant wolf didn't attack us..."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look, their faces showing surprise and delight.

The Azure Moon Demon Wolf before them did not attack these martial artists. Instead, it leaped into the air, transforming into an azure rainbow, and pounced on the white-armored giant bear with its sharp claws.

The battle between the white-armored giant bear and the blue moon wolf had barely lasted a few rounds when the white-armored giant bear was slapped several feet away by the blue moon wolf. The white-armored giant bear roared to the sky and quickly prepared to flee from the place.

However, the Azure Moon Demon Wolf did not give the white-armored giant bear in front of it any chance. The Azure Moon Demon Wolf was a first-tier high-level demon beast, while the white-armored giant bear in front of it was just an ordinary, insignificant demon beast and was no match for the Azure Moon Demon Wolf at all.

The Azure Moon Demon Wolf's speed suddenly increased, its figure transforming into a phantom. It quickly caught up with the White Armored Giant Bear, and with a back pounce, the White Armored Giant Bear fell to the ground. The next moment, its sharp claws were incredibly razor-sharp, instantly tearing the White Armored Giant Bear's body to shreds. Its demonic body was immediately covered with deep furrows, and blood gushed out incessantly.

The white-armored giant bear immediately lost its ability to move and could only watch helplessly as the Azure Moon Demon Wolf tore its flesh into pieces inch by inch and then devoured it into the wolf's mouth. The scene was extremely bloody.

Soon, the enormous bear carcass was swallowed whole by the Azure Moon Demon Wolf. The Azure Moon Demon Wolf still seemed somewhat unsatisfied, its dark green amber eyes coldly sweeping over the group before disappearing into the bushes.

The fight between the Azure Moon Demon Wolf and the White Armor Giant Bear was so intense that it only lasted a few hundred breaths from start to finish. I was originally planning to leave during the lull in the fight between the two beasts.

But all of this happened so fast that the team members hadn't even had time to react.

As soon as the fight ended, everyone in the team showed signs of panic, thinking that they too were prey for the Azure Moon Demon Wolf.

They tried to escape towards the mountains, but after running for a while, they realized that the giant blue wolf had not caught up with them and had disappeared from the area.

None of the warriors present were afraid of death. Having escaped the inevitable demise, they all stopped fleeing, sat down on the spot, panting heavily with lingering fear, and prepared to rest before continuing their journey into the snow-covered land.

Song Daoxuan and Old Man Mu, a total of twelve people, continued along the mountain path.

However, the group was surprisingly lucky along the way and did not encounter any terrifying beast attacks. As dusk approached, the team prepared to set up camp on the spot.

After all, the path from the foot of the mountain to the truly snow-covered land is fraught with danger, and encountering some ferocious beasts during the day is already extremely unlucky for these mortals. When night falls, even more terrifying beasts come out to hunt for food, and traveling at night is undoubtedly courting death.

The team lit a campfire on the spot and then divided up their responsibilities to keep watch. They had to make sure the campfire didn't go out, because wild beasts in the mountains were afraid of fire, and if the campfire went out, their team's safety would be in jeopardy.

Furthermore, this route is fraught with cold winds for more than 360 days a year, and even in areas with real snow or glaciers, storms, rain, and snow are common. The campfire in front of us is a way to keep warm.

Cheng Bantou was highly skilled in wilderness survival. Under his leadership, the team quickly gathered all the necessary firewood, built a simple shelter, lit a campfire, hunted several wild animals, roasted them, and shared them with everyone.

The next morning, Cheng led everyone to climb up to the actual snow-covered area.

When Song Daoxuan looked up, he saw a world covered in silver, and everyone truly felt the biting cold.

The bitter cold was a severe test for the mortals in the team, but for a cultivator like Song Daoxuan, it was like a gentle breeze. After all, cultivators absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, which enhances their physique and six senses.

For those who cultivate immortality, the nine seasons of summer and winter are easily endured.

They continued climbing, and on the edge of a steep cliff, a bright red herb, its fragrance wafting in the breeze, was spotted by a mortal warrior in the group, who reached out to pick it.

Unexpectedly, the moment he touched the herb, a venomous snake coiled among the herbs suddenly appeared and opened its menacing maw towards him.

All that was heard was a scream, and then a figure plummeted into the clouds above the Thousand Blades.

Song Daoxuan scanned the herb with his divine sense and found that it was indeed a spiritual herb, but only a common auxiliary herb among first-tier spiritual plants. Song Daoxuan usually didn't even bother to look at such spiritual plants, so he lost interest in it.

The following night, another extremely sinister sound came from the squad's tent.

Then, a painful wail came from within the squad.

Song Daoxuan was not asleep. Hearing the sound, he knew that something had happened in the group again.

With a thought, he glimpsed countless dark green orbs of light, and saw empty skulls biting at the men on night watch. Blood splattered everywhere.

"This extremely yin entity appears to be the transformation of countless mortals and cultivators who died in this snow-covered land. Their souls could not be released, and their resentment accumulated and gathered, eventually transforming into such terrifying vengeful ghosts!"
