Zhang Yuhe carefully placed the token into his pants pocket, then opened the wooden treasure chest.
There is only one spirit stone.
"They're so stingy! Such a powerful demon beast, and they only gave us one spirit stone."
However, he didn't care. With the Dao Saint Sect's token, what more could he want?
Zhang Yuhe put away the spirit stones and continued on his way, leaving behind two monster corpses.
He had no idea which direction led to an indigenous city, and after wandering in these mountains for a month, he hadn't encountered a single person.
He couldn't even find someone to ask for directions; he could only roughly determine the direction based on the terrain.
As for whether we'll go down the wrong path, only heaven knows. You have to be willing to try and fail when you do things.
Try running in one direction first.
Zhang Yuhe swiftly traversed the mountains and forests, avoiding any monsters he encountered.
He's not interested in demonic beasts right now; he just wants to find the indigenous city as soon as possible and then find out how to get to the Dao Sheng Sect.
For him, nothing was more important than going to the Dao Sheng Sect.
Zhang Yuhe didn't want any accidents to happen. What if he accidentally died and the keepsake fell out?
Whether players will drop items upon death is uncertain.
He didn't want to take any risks whatsoever.
The most urgent task is to steadily reach the Dao Sheng Sect and join the sect.
As long as he can join the Dao Sheng Sect, with his extraordinary talent for cultivation, he has a good chance of ascending to immortality.
This is an opportunity not to be missed.
Zhang Yuhe ran for about two hours and then noticed that the trees around him didn't seem as tall as they had been before.
Moreover, the terrain began to flatten out.
"Are we about to leave the mountains?"
According to common sense, this should be a sign that they are about to leave the deep mountains.
"I hope to run into some natives as soon as possible and ask them for directions. This aimless wandering is really worrying."
After running for a while, Zhang Yuhe suddenly stopped.
"It looks like someone's there."
He listened intently, and from afar came the roars of beasts and the sounds of fighting.
The distance was quite far, I almost didn't notice it.
"Haha, there really is someone here, let's go take a look."
Zhang Yuhe concealed his presence and quietly crept towards the direction from which the sound came.
He didn't foolishly rush over; who knows what the fight was like over there?
What if you run into a hot-tempered native who thinks you're stealing monsters and attacks you right away? That would be ridiculous.
A short while later, Zhang Yuhe saw the source of the sound.
A young man in white robes was seen manipulating a flying sword and fighting a giant boar monster.
Behind the boy in white stood a middle-aged man in blue.
He looks like he's in a bodyguard role.
Zhang Yuhe roughly imagined that this was a young master who was probably out on a training trip with guards. He wondered if there were any other companions nearby.
Watching the white-clad youth gracefully maneuver his flying sword, his figure constantly shifting and dodging, occasionally unleashing small fireballs from his hand.
Zhang Yuhe couldn't help but feel envious; this was true cultivation of immortality.
His way of wielding a long sword to slash monsters is completely devoid of any aesthetic appeal.
Zhang Yuhe sensed the presence of the two people from a distance.
The white-robed youth, with only the fourth level of Qi Refining cultivation, fought the wild boar monster to a standstill.
The middle-aged man in blue was at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
"Very good, neither of these two is very strong, so we can approach them without worry."
He can only deal with those who are weaker than him with peace of mind.
If he were to encounter a native whose cultivation level he couldn't discern, he would definitely turn around and leave.
In this desolate wilderness, if someone were to cut you with a knife, you would have nowhere to seek justice.
The main reason was that he was carrying the Dao Sheng Sect's token, and he was afraid it would fall out if he died.
Otherwise, there would be no need to be so cautious.
Anyway, he's a player, so if he gets killed, it just means he'll have to train for a little less time.
But not now. Now he has to play it safe and prioritize stability.
Zhang Yuhe did not appear immediately, but hid behind a tree to quietly observe the battle, because the white-clad youth's battle had reached a critical moment.
He didn't want to cause any misunderstandings.
Suddenly, the white-clad youth made a mistake in his footing, and the wild boar monster charged at him, leaving him no chance to avoid it.
At this moment, the guard in blue standing behind the white-clad youth shouted loudly.
"Sixth Young Master, be careful."
With a wave of his right hand, the guard in blue sent a flying sword flying like a rainbow, instantly pinning the boar monster to the ground.
The guard in blue was clearly very competent and experienced, which is why he was able to save the boy in time.
Seeing that the other party had finished the battle, Zhang Yuhe was about to show himself and go over to say hello.
Perhaps because of the near-accident, the guards in blue became even more cautious.
As he quickly walked towards the boy in white, he carefully observed his surroundings to avoid any further danger.
Just then, the guards in blue suddenly spotted Zhang Yuhe hiding behind a tree.
He shouted:
"Who's hiding there so suspiciously? Come out!"
Zhang Yuhe felt embarrassed that his disguise had been exposed.
Obviously, it's two completely different things to come out and say hello yourself and to be recognized by others.
"Don't get me wrong, I was just passing by and came over to check because I heard fighting."
There's nothing I can do; if someone calls me a "hidden form," I can only offer an explanation.
Although he considered these two to be weaklings, he still planned to ask them for directions.
Therefore, one should certainly have a better attitude.
You can't hit someone who's smiling at you.
However, things took an unexpected turn.
The young man in white, for some unknown reason, became inexplicably furious and shouted when he saw Zhang Yuhe appear from behind the tree.
"You lowly commoner, how dare you peek at me practicing magic? You're asking for death."
After saying that, the white-robed youth pointed with his right hand, and a small fireball shot straight towards Zhang Yuhe.
"What the hell is this lunatic?"
Zhang Yuhe was initially taken aback, then became furious.
I was talking to you nicely, and you just went straight for the kill.
Did they take the wrong medicine?
I had originally wanted to ask these two people for some information, but now that they've made the first move, it's best to leave it at that.
Zhang Yuhe quickly dodged the opponent's fireball.
Clang...
The long sword was drawn, and at the same time, the aura of a Great Perfection of Qi Refining was released freely.
"Oh no, young master, let's go! The opponent is at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining!"
The guard in blue immediately realized something was wrong and hurriedly warned the boy.
Unfortunately, it's all too late now.
Zhang Yuhe moved with lightning speed, leaping twice to reach the white-clad youth.
The blade flashed across the sky, and the white-clad youth was killed in a single blow before he could even react.
With his current strength, defeating a weakling at the fourth level of Qi Refining is naturally no problem for him.
Solve it in one fell swoop, without any hesitation.
Upon seeing the boy die, the young guards were so frightened that they immediately released their flying swords and fled into the air.
He had absolutely no intention of fighting Zhang Yuhe.
How could someone at the sixth level of Qi Refining possibly defeat him?
But how could Zhang Yuhe possibly let him escape?
Since we've already started, we should kill them all; killing one or two is the same thing.
But at this moment, the guards in blue robes had already flown into the air and were speeding away into the distance.
Zhang Yuhe can't fly, so he can't catch up with him at all.
"Hmph, even now, you still want to run away."
Seeing that the other party decisively ran away, Zhang Yuhe was not worried. He quickly threw out the long knife in his hand.
I can't fly and can't catch up with you, but my knife can.
The long sword moved with lightning speed, heading straight for the blue-clad guard in the air.
Seeing the long sword flying towards him, the guard in blue hurriedly changed the direction of his flying sword in an attempt to dodge it.
However, before he could make a move, the long sword pierced through his chest, and he fell headfirst to the ground.
Faced with a disparity in strength, everything else is in vain.
It's unclear whether it's because they've killed too many monsters or for some other reason.
Although it was his first time killing someone, Zhang Yuhe did not feel any discomfort.
This is a real, living person, not an NPC in a typical game.
Of course, it's all the fault of that boy in white; he's a lunatic.
It's really baffling.
Unexpectedly, his first encounter with the indigenous people resulted in this outcome.
However, Zhang Yuhe has now figured it out. He guessed that the boy in white had almost had an accident while fighting the wild boar monster.
And he just happened to see it.
For these young masters, making a fool of themselves in front of outsiders is an absolute loss of face.
Zhang Yuhe had just concealed his aura, so those with lower cultivation levels couldn't tell at first glance.
The young man in white thought he was just an ordinary person, so he became emboldened and went straight for the kill.
All I can say is, if you don't court death, you won't die.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuhe couldn't help but shake his head. There are crazy people everywhere, but he was just unlucky to run into one today.
"Hmm, loot the body first and then run away quickly. This young master's death might cause trouble."
He didn't want to guess what the boy in white was thinking, since he was already dead anyway.
Zhang Yuhe now only hopes that the boy in white will have something that interests him.
Since they didn't get directions, it's reasonable to leave some good things behind after they die to make up for it.
