C43 (1/2)
Looking at the surroundings, Bai Chen was astonished. He saw a dozen or so spirit beast corpses lying in the valley. It was clear that they had gone through a fierce battle before. To be able to kill so many spirit beasts, they were most likely powerful spirit beasts.
The canyon was eerily quiet. There was not a single sound to be heard, as if there had never been a life here before.
This canyon was thousands of feet high and ordinary people couldn't reach it. There were countless spirit beasts within the canyon, so it was impossible for humans to enter. Just who had entered the canyon and killed so many spirit beasts?
Bai Chen was surprised, but quickly stored the low-level spirit beast cores into his interspatial ring.
Now, besides the cores of the Spirit Sect's spirit beast, Bai Chen also had a dozen or so low-level spirit beast cores with him. Even if he wasn't able to hunt them later, his return to Canghai Academy was enviable.
However, Bai Chen started to get worried!
How was he going to leave this canyon? The cliffs on both sides were steep and steep, as if they were being sliced by knives or axes. It was a terrifying sight to look at, and one wouldn't even be able to see it with a single glance.
Bai Chen shook his head and walked along the canyon. A gust of wind blew over, causing his heart to tremble. He secretly observed his surroundings.
After walking along the canyon for a while, the terrain inside the canyon became narrower.
”Roar! Roar! Roar!”
A ferocious roar suddenly sounded out from behind him. Bai Chen hurriedly turned around and saw a huge Three-Eyed Black Panther pouncing towards him like a tiger eyeing its prey.
The Three-Eyed Black Panther's eyes emitted a cold killing intent. Its huge head was held high, and it opened its bloody mouth to pounce towards the source of the roar. A powerful aura of a ferocious beast emanated from his body.
Shit, another spirit rank creature.
Bai Chen was secretly shocked. When he encountered a Spirit Sect Rank Spiritual Beast, he was completely unable to defend against it with his current strength. The instant he saw the three-eyed leopard, he immediately fled forward.
The three-eyed leopard let out a fierce roar and chased after Bai Chen.
Bai Chen was so scared that cold sweat broke out all over his body. At this moment, he was the only one left in the canyon, and there might even be other spirit beasts nearby.
Bai Chen ran towards the canyon at top speed while the Three-Eyed Leopard chased closely behind.
A man and a beast chased each other to the end of the canyon. Suddenly, a lake appeared in front of Bai Chen, blocking his path. The lake was not big, and the surface of the water was gleaming with a cold light.
When Bai Chen saw that the three-eyed leopard was in hot pursuit, his heart tensed up. Without further ado, he jumped into the lake.
A strange cold suddenly surged from the lake into Bai Chen's entire body. It was bone-chilling cold, and the extremely cold energy drilled into his bones. All of the muscles on his body instantly felt as if they were going to freeze solid, and his clothes instantly became a layer of ice.
Bai Chen suddenly quivered, and an instinctual resistance came from his body. Previously, after activating the first layer of the Spirit Palace in his Echelon's tower, he had chosen to train in Frost Tempering, causing his body to become resistant to the extreme cold.
Relying on the body of a Medial Grade Spirit Master, Bai Chen quickly passed through the cold lake and went limp on the shore. All the muscles on his body were frozen solid and his clothes became a thick layer of ice.
At this moment, the Three-eyed Leopard was blocked on the other side of the lake. It roared furiously but dared not enter the lake.
He looked at the dozens of vicious beasts that had sprung up behind the three-eyed leopard and roared at him, but did not dare to enter the lake. He was relieved. He sat down cross-legged and started cultivating. A stream of warmth flowed out from his dantian and slowly spread to his whole body. His body gradually recovered and became warm.
After a long while, Bai Chen finally returned to normal. He let out a long sigh of relief, lifted his head and pulled the ten or so spirit beasts that had gathered on the other side of the lake.
It seemed like there was no danger for the time being.
Bai Chen let out a sigh of relief, then stood up and looked around him. He had been too busy to care before, but now he found a cave on the lake's cliff. The cave was only about the size of a person, and the entrance was covered in ice.
Bai Chen then walked towards the cave and examined it closely. He discovered that the cave seemed to be formed naturally and there was a thick layer of ice at the entrance. Suddenly, a dense spiritual energy was emitted from the cave.
Bai Chen only felt that the spiritual energy was extremely dense, and it was even more intense than when he was at Canghai Academy. His heart stirred, and without hesitation, he punched the layer of ice, breaking through it and walking in.
The layer of ice around the cave entrance was smashed open and Bai Chen walked in. The cave was not big, and there was a straight path leading in.
A few thick and coarse plants grew on the floor of the cave, and the dense Spiritual Qi that he had sensed earlier came from those plants.
Bai Chen took a closer look and discovered that the plants were very strange. The leaves were very strange and did not look like anything ordinary. His heart stirred and he immediately plucked all the plants from the cave and stored them in his spatial ring.
The cave was as cold as it had been in the lake. Ordinary people would not have been able to resist the cold at all. Luckily, Bai Chen's body tempering could withstand the cold. As he walked, he plucked all the plants he had encountered along the way.
The further he went, the deeper he went into the cave, and the colder it became. His hair and eyebrows were all frozen, and even his breath was filled with white mist.
As he walked forward, his clothes started to freeze up. The cave suddenly became narrow, and he could only move sideways.
Suddenly, a messy series of footsteps appeared on the ground. It seemed as if a dozen people had passed by.
