Rong Zi led his apprentices along the direction from which the sound came.
However, they were blocked by a group of red-eyed snow lions halfway there.
Great opportunities are often accompanied by great dangers.
Places like the Immortal's Hidden Realm, teeming with opportunities, are naturally accompanied by countless dangers.
Moreover, to Rong Zi's surprise, the leader of this group of red-eyed snow lions was actually a level six demon beast, comparable to a human cultivator at the Void Refinement stage.
Besides the lion king, the pride also includes six level-five demonic beasts and nine level-four demonic beasts.
Level four is actually the lowest level among these snow lions...
I'd heard that the treasures in this Immortal Realm weren't easy to obtain, but I never imagined they'd be this difficult!
A demonic beast comparable to the Void Refinement stage!
Even if the opportunities in this secret realm are great, which sect would dare to send its disciples to such a place?
Are they all out of their minds?
At this moment, more than a dozen red-eyed snow lions were all staring intently at Rong Zi and his disciples, crouching low and slowly approaching them in an encircling manner.
The seven disciples present glanced at the red-eyed snow lion in front of them, then at Rong Zi, their eyes showing no fear.
With Master around, let alone a level six demon beast.
Even level eight demonic beasts are no match for them.
Seeing that Rong Zi hadn't taken down the little lions on the other side, they called out to her in confusion.
"Master?"
Rong Zi blinked blankly, "Huh?"
The apprentices looked at each other, and Qi Yufei urged, "Move!"
"What are you moving?" Rong Zi was completely confused.
Qi Yufei waved his hand and said, "Slice them up! Don't they know who we are? How dare they block our way? We have to slice them into pieces and dry them into spicy jerky to eat as snacks."
Rong Zi: "..."
Who taught you all this?
Why would you want to eat something that can run?
Rong Zi tried to mobilize the spiritual energy within her body.
Feeling the uncontrollable energy within her body that had been surging since entering this celestial realm, she awkwardly raised her hand to rub her nose, and said hesitantly, "Actually..."
Her apprentices, unsure of what she was trying to say, pressed her for an answer.
"Actually what?"
Rong Zi coughed lightly, "Well, I don't think I can cut them right now."
"Why? You don't like lion jerky anymore?" Gu Xiaochui thought for a moment, then realized something was wrong and added, "Wait a minute, we got quite a lot in the Monster Forest back then, and you seemed to enjoy it quite a bit."
Just as the red-eyed snow lions were about to reach them, Ning Lingling suddenly put her hands on her hips, pointed at them, and gave a fierce command.
"You guys behave yourselves! Stand there and don't move. Our master will deal with you later."
Perhaps it was Ning Lingling's imposing aura that made the red-eyed snow lions pause for a moment, stopping their forward movement.
Seeing this, Ning Lingling clapped her hands in satisfaction, then leaned close to Rong Zi and said something.
“Master, if you don’t want dried meat, we can have lion meat soup. We’re not picky eaters.”
Rong Zi: "..."
Why is he still thinking about food all the time?
Rong Zi raised his hand to his forehead, gesturing for them to come closer. He lowered his voice and said directly, "I can't use my own spiritual power right now, so I can't fight."
Upon hearing this, the apprentices all froze, their faces changing color.
Gu Xiaochui swallowed hard. "Master, this joke isn't funny at all."
The monster is right in front of us!
If Master can't fight, then aren't they doomed?
The opponent is a level six demon beast!
Rong Zi was speechless. "Who was joking with you? If I could use spiritual power, would I have lost control and fallen from mid-air, smashing you into the ground?"
Seeing that Rong Zi was indeed not joking, everyone exchanged glances and felt the menacing gazes of the red-eyed snow lions, their backs breaking out in a cold sweat.
Yun Jing turned his head and glanced at the group of red-eyed snow lions.
Seeing that they were staring at them intently, seemingly lost in thought, he nervously tugged at Rong Zi's sleeve and asked, "What do we do now?"
"What can we do?" Rong Zi took a deep breath, suddenly grabbed Ning Lingling and Xu Chi with one hand each, and then took off running. "Run!"
Yun Jing and the others were stunned for a moment, then activated the Qingfeng Hunyuan Step and began to flee frantically as well.
The red-eyed snow lions behind them stared blankly at their retreating figures as they darted away like the wind for a long while before letting out a long roar and then chasing after them in a collective frenzy.
Hearing the commotion behind them, everyone quickened their pace, putting in as much effort as they could.
Ling Mo glanced at the red-eyed snow lions relentlessly pursuing them behind him, and took Ning Lingling and Xu Chi from Rong Zi's hands.
He said in a deep voice, "Master! They're catching up soon!"
Rong Zi has been trying to find a way to control the spiritual power within her body.
For some reason, the spiritual energy within her body just wouldn't obey her commands, running around aimlessly like a headless fly.
Helpless, Rong Zi could only say, "Quick! Run on your sword!"
Hearing her words, Yun Jing and the others immediately began to fly on their swords.
Ning Lingling and Xu Chi were with Ling Mo, while Rong Zi jumped onto Xi Ling'er's sword.
Just as they were about to fly away on their swords, the leading red-eyed snow lion suddenly roared and rushed to the ground below Rong Zi and the others.
The other red-eyed snow lions worked in perfect harmony with it, quickly surrounding it in the center.
