Chapter 197: Descending the Mountain (I)

After writing the letter, Chen Yiming placed it in an envelope and sealed it. He would get someone to send it back to East Lake City later.

“Knock knock knock!”

At this moment, someone knocked lightly on the courtyard door.

“Please come in.”

Chen Yiming put away the letter and looked up.

The courtyard door opened and Su Mo’er walked in nervously.

Compared to the first time they had met in the library, although Su Mo’er was very nervous, Chen Yiming felt a sense of confidence coming from her.

Her black hair was tied behind her back, and she was in a black outfit. There was a long sword tied to her waist, and she was dressed like a heroine. She looked like she was about to leave the mountain.

“Have you resolved the problems with your secondary cultivation technique?” Chen Yiming asked, even though he already knew the answer.

Su Mo’er nodded and said, “Yes, I followed your suggestion.”

“The combination of the black fog and ice attribute internal force should have greatly improved your ability to protect yourself. It shouldn’t be a problem for you to leave the mountain to carry out the mission,” Chen Yiming said, his tone hinting that he was chasing her away.

Su Mo’er’s movements were too slow. Chen Yiming had wanted to use her as a tool for his internal force fusion research.

However, the framework for Chen Yiming’s internal force fusion had been set up. The other party had completely lost the value she had to Chen Yiming.

Su Mo’er was speechless. The other party had suddenly stopped being proactive. He had been her junior brother who enthusiastically answered her questions not too long ago.

Fortunately, she had always been thick-skinned, so she asked, “Is there any other way to resolve this? I haven’t completely given up on mastering the transformation of my internal force.”

Chen Yiming almost rolled his eyes. She was shamelessly asking him for help.

Su Mo’er’s current situation was that she had cultivated a secondary ice attribute internal force. This meant that her control over her internal force was much lower than before, when she only cultivated one type of internal force.

She knew that her own talent was insufficient for mastering the transformation of her internal force, so she could only rely on the second type of internal force to increase her combat strength.

Chen Yiming said mercilessly, “If you can obtain a large number of treasures like the willow tree cores and disperse the second type of internal force, you might have a chance.”

When Su Mo’er received his answer, the last trace of hope disappeared.

Regarding the willow tree cores, since there were a large number of disciples following the court head, each disciple might not even get a quarter of a piece under normal situations.

If she acted alone, it meant that she had to risk her life to fight for it.

A large number? That was unrealistic.

Su Mo’er chatted briefly with him for a while longer. After expressing her gratitude, she left the house.

After she left, Chen Yiming glanced at the empty courtyard.

Among the inner sect disciples, other than those with high scores who could stay on the mountain, the rest had been assigned to leave the mountain to carry out missions. Dai Yuanhang, Bai Hengliang, and Qian Bingnan had already set off.

Chen Yiming also moved out. At the entrance of the sect, he registered his return home with the disciples guarding the gate before leaving the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

Of course, leaving the Myriad Phenomena Sect was not a simple matter.

Returning to East Lake City was just a cover. His true goal was to sweep through the places where mutant beasts and plants were gathered in Jiangnan province.

That day in the valley, the entire willow tree forest and spiritual spring had helped him upgrade his Undying Body talent in advance.

As for the Level-3 Undying Body talent, it required 3,000 Skill Points. If he relied on his daily cultivation to accumulate the Skill Points, he did not know when he would be able to accumulate enough Skill Points. In addition, he still had the Sword Technique talent to spend his Skill Points on.

Now that his combat strength had increased again after the internal force fusion framework was built, Chen Yiming was confident that he could take the initiative to attack.

…

In Jiangnan province, at the intersection hundreds of kilometers north of Nightwater City and west of Cloud Port City, a group of people walked along the rocky path. This was the team that had entered the wilderness to hunt mutant beasts.

The only young woman in the group suddenly stopped in her tracks.

“What’s wrong, Ye Yisha?” A question came from the team.

Ye Yisha waved her hand to signal for everyone to be quiet. Then, her long, elf-like ears trembled as she listened to the vibrations that ordinary people could not hear.

This ability was something she was born with. It was what she relied on to survive in the hunting team as a young and beautiful woman.

“Ye Yisha, could it be that a group of mutant beasts has come out to hunt for food?”

Seeing that her long ears had stopped trembling, someone asked anxiously.

Ever since the various provinces joined in on the Daxia Kingdom’s plan to establish a long-term stronghold in the otherworld, the strength of the human factions on the blue planet had weakened to a certain extent, especially at the level of those at the peak of the human’s combat strength.

The mutant beasts also sensed that something was amiss, so they moved around more frequently and boldly than before.

As a result, not only were there conflicts between the human factions in the wilderness, but they were also fighting mutant beasts frequently.

Even though this hunting team had members with special abilities like Ye Yisha, they were still very careful, afraid that they would be ambushed by the mutant beasts.

“The tremors are different from when the mutant beasts pass through. There’s a high chance that a powerful creature is moving in this direction,” Ye Yisha said in a low voice with a serious expression.

A wrinkled old man’s turbid eyes lit up again. “Regardless of whether it is a human or mutant beast, let’s quickly find a place to hide. As long as we don’t encounter it head-on, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

He was the captain of this hunting team, and his name was Li Shou. Although he was old, he was very experienced in the wilderness, so he had yet to completely retire.

Ye Yisha added, “The vibration I heard just now was different from what I’ve experienced in the past. It felt like it was far beyond my imagination.”

These words shocked the entire hunting team.

Ye Yisha’s special ability had never gone wrong, so everyone could not help but worry.

Without any urging, the group quickly found an area in the forest where rocks had fallen.

Rocks that were about the height of a person were scattered on the ground. The hunting team spread out and used the rocks as cover to hide from the powerful creature that would pass by later.

Because of Ye Yisha’s special ability, she stayed behind a rock with the captain of the hunting team, Li Shou.

“Captain, I keep feeling that something is amiss. Why don’t we not go to the sea of flowers?” Ye Yisha suddenly suggested in a low voice.

The sea of flowers was a place where mutant beasts and plants gathered in the northwest of Jiangnan province. It was similar to Mist Island in the East Sea and a special type of dew was produced there.

However, because this dew was condensed from the essence over just one day, it naturally could not compare to the willow tree cores formed over three years.

In addition, there were mutant beasts at the peak of the warrior realm who had been living in the sea of flowers for a long time. For humans of the same level, it was a pity to give up on them.

This caused the sea of flowers to become a dangerous place that had existed for a long time, attracting humans who were not afraid of death to go and search for opportunities to break through.

The other members of the hunting team were only a few meters away from each other. When they heard Ye Yisha’s soft suggestion, they all looked over.

The sea of flowers was equivalent to a restricted area, but with Ye Yisha around, the team would always be able to turn misfortune into good luck. Of course, the team would only move around the periphery of the sea of flowers.

Now that this person, who could be said to be the most important person in the team, suddenly suggested not to go to the sea of flowers, they could not help but feel nervous.

After all, no one knew how long Ye Yisha would stay in this team. She might suddenly be poached by a stronger faction one day.

Li Shou frowned, unable to make a decision at that moment.

The special dew produced by the sea of flowers could also slow down aging. As an old warrior, he needed this dew to maintain his combat ability.
