Passing through the palace, there is a dense forest behind it.

Ancient trees reach for the sky, blocking out the sun.

A thin layer of mist shrouded the tree canopy, and the air was filled with the fresh scent of grass and trees.

"It's actually the Monster Forest."

Luo Tian extended his divine sense and sensed the dense life force within the forest.

Various monsters inhabit this place, varying in strength.

"Go in, it's full of demonic beasts, you can practice your skills there."

"Yes, Master!"

Ye Qianxue, holding an ice-blue longsword, walked at the very front.

Li Mengmeng gripped the spirit sword, protecting Xiao Niannian on her left.

Little Niannian skipped and hopped along behind, looking more like she was going on a spring outing than going to fight.

The small golden plate rested on her shoulder, and the dragon's eyes warily scanned its surroundings.

As soon as we entered the forest, a monster the size of an ox leaped out from the bushes.

It was entirely black and had tusks like a wild boar.

Its eyes were bloodshot, and foul-smelling saliva dripped from its mouth.

"It's an Ironback Porcupine, just a low-level monster."

Luo Tian said calmly, his face full of confidence.

"Qianxue, you go first."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qianxue stepped forward and thrust out her sword, the sword energy falling like snowflakes.

They all disappeared into the porcupine's body, and the porcupine immediately stopped moving.

A thin layer of frost formed on its body surface before it collapsed with a thud.

"Senior Sister Qianxue is amazing!"

Little Niannian clapped her hands and cheered, her little face flushed, looking absolutely adorable.

Ye Qianxue sheathed her sword, her expression calm as still water.

A demonic beast at the Qi Refining stage posed no challenge to her.

……

As the group ventured deeper into the forest, they encountered an increasing number of monsters.

The levels also increase, from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, and then to Golden Core.

However, with the cooperation of the three women, it was somewhat easier.

Ye Qianxue took the lead in attacking, unleashing the Falling Snow Sword Technique to its fullest extent. The sword light fell like snowflakes, exuding a chilling aura.

Her opponents were often killed within three moves.

With Li Mengmeng's assistance, the Nine Waves Flowing Water Sword Technique became increasingly proficient and powerful.

When faced with a formidable enemy, she and Ye Qianxue joined forces, one attacking and the other defending, their cooperation seamless.

Xiao Niannian occasionally makes a move, using the Taiyi Sword in conjunction with the Starry Sky Sword Technique.

A star crashed down, killing all the demonic beasts within a radius of several feet.

But Luo Tian didn't let her participate too much, saying that he wanted to leave it for the senior sisters to gain experience.

"Niannian, just watch. You're stronger than both of them now, so don't try to take it."

"Oh... I see!"

Little Niannian pouted, looking a little unhappy.

But she was very obedient, following behind quietly, occasionally adding insult to injury.

The group took some high-level demon beast meat, roasted it over a fire, and ate it.

Although the taste isn't great, the demon beasts contain essence, and consuming them can slightly increase one's cultivation level.

After resting for half a day, everyone recovered to their peak condition in order to face the unknown dangers ahead.

Just as they were about to move on...

Suddenly, a sharp bird cry rang out from deep within the forest.

A huge bird burst out from the treetops, with a wingspan of ten zhang (approximately 33 meters).

It is entirely blue, with feathers like steel needles, a beak like an iron hook, and claws like sharp blades.

The high-level spirit beast, the Azure Feather Eagle, is equivalent to the combat power of a cultivator in the early Golden Core stage.

"Dad, this bird is huge!"

Little Niannian looked up at the Azure Feather Eagle, her big eyes full of curiosity.

Luo Tian smiled slightly and said loudly:

"Mengmeng, this bird is yours. Whether you can get it as a mount depends on your skills."

Li Mengmeng was taken aback and lost some confidence.

"Master, am I... alright?"

"Your spirit sword is a low-grade spirit weapon. Combined with the Flowing Water Sword Technique, it's enough to deal with it."

Luo Tian encouraged her, and his words gave Li Mengmeng confidence.

She took a deep breath, gripped her spirit sword tightly, took a step forward, and rose into the air.

The blue-feathered eagle saw someone approaching and let out a sharp cry.

With a flap of its wings, countless blue feathers shot towards Li Mengmeng like steel needles.

The latter raised his sword to parry, and the sword shone brightly with golden light, deflecting all the feathers.

"Flowing Water Sword...Seven Waves!"

With a single sword strike, seven layers of sword energy overlapped, transforming into a giant wave that crashed towards the Azure Feather Eagle.

The Azure-feathered Eagle was unable to dodge in time and was struck in the left wing by the sword energy, its feathers flying and blood splattering.

It let out a scream and fell from the sky.

Li Mengmeng chased after him and unleashed another sword strike.

"Eight Waves!"

The combined power of the eight sword energies was twice as strong as the seventh wave.

The sword energy struck the Azure Feather Eagle's back, cleaving it from the air and crashing it to the ground, creating a large crater.

"Wow, Senior Sister Mengmeng is amazing! She knocked down the giant bird!"

Xiao Niannian clapped her hands excitedly, as if she had subdued the giant bird.

Luo Tian shook his head and smiled, his eyes flashing...
