Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 116: The Threat of Rank Three Demonic Beasts, Cultivators from the Cloud Mist Mountain Range

"So it's Senior Shen."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Sui nodded. "I am Zhou Sui. This time, I am accompanying a Foundation Building senior to the Cloud Mist Mountain Range. If I have disturbed anyone, please forgive me."

He also mentioned that he had a Foundation Building cultivator behind him, not inferior to these people.

Otherwise, if the other party saw that he was alone, they might have ill intentions.

It was like a three-year-old child holding a gold bar, which would inevitably attract malicious intent.

But if the gold bar fell into the hands of a police officer with a firearm, no one would dare to provoke them.

It was the same principle.

"So it's like that. I wonder if this Foundation Building senior can come and meet us?" Shen Wan still didn't show any unusual expression, instead appearing very pleased.

"That might not be convenient. Senior Zhou is currently in seclusion and it may take some time before he comes out."

"If there is anything important, you can tell me, and I will relay it to Senior Zhou."

Zhou Sui said in a deep voice.

During this period, Leng Yuxi had been mostly in seclusion cultivating.

Although she had already removed the poison from her body, the years of deficit couldn't be made up for in a short time.

So during this period, she was mostly in seclusion, recovering her complete Foundation Building strength.

He also directly changed Leng Yuxi's surname to Zhou, considering her as his senior from the Zhou family.

After all, Leng Yuxi's reputation was too great.

Within a radius of thousands of miles, any well-known cultivator would recognize her.

If her whereabouts were leaked, it might attract Foundation Building cultivators from the Shadow Demon Sect.

Therefore, he planned to change Leng Yuxi's identity and treat her as his senior from the Zhou family.

"I see, that's unfortunate."

"In fact, we don't have any important matters either. We are just cultivators who have come to the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range to seek opportunities."

"Now that we have met, let's introduce ourselves and get to know each other. It would be good to have some connections and mutual support in the future."

Shen Wan was a little disappointed, but he also understood.

After all, it was common for Foundation Building cultivators to go into seclusion frequently, and he didn't think it was a big deal.

"Could it be that there are many cultivators here in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range?"

Zhou Sui curiously asked.

After all, he had always lived in Misty Cloud City and rarely left it.

Occasionally, he only heard news of cultivators venturing deep into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range and being killed by the demonic beasts inside.

In his eyes, the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range were an extremely dangerous place.

If it weren't for seeking refuge and obtaining Rank Two Demonic Cores, he wouldn't have come here.

"Of course, there are quite a few."

Shen Wan smiled faintly. "Just in the vicinity here, there are at least three Foundation Building families, such as my Shen family, as well as the Mu family and the Xiao family. They have all built a foothold nearby for us cultivators to reside in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range."

After all, there were countless spiritual herbs and numerous demonic beasts in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range. Although it was dangerous, if one had good luck, they could make a fortune or even earn money from Foundation Building Pills.

He indicated that there were not few cultivators who ventured deep into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.

Everyone scattered throughout the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, each doing their own thing, searching for spiritual herbs and hunting demonic beasts.

After all, the Cloud Mist Mountain Range was large enough to accommodate a large number of cultivators, and there was no need to fight over territory.

The biggest danger here was not the cultivators, but the demonic beasts and various poisonous insects hidden in the clouds and mist.

"I'm afraid Fellow Daoist Zhou also came for the many resources of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, right?"

Shen Wan seemed to be looking at Zhou Sui with a hidden meaning.

"Yes, to be honest, the reason why I followed the senior members of my family here this time is to hunt down Rank Two demonic beasts and obtain Rank Two demonic pills. This way, our family might be able to refine Foundation Building Pills, all for the sake of the future of our family."

Zhou Sui honestly said that he came to Cloud Mist Mountain Range this time for the Rank Two demonic pills.

In fact, there was nothing to hide about this.

Most cultivators who ventured deep into Cloud Mist Mountain Range were hoping to obtain Rank Two demonic pills.

Unfortunately, most cultivators ended up buried in the bellies of demonic beasts, leaving no trace of their remains.

"Rank Two demonic pills? Without obtaining the Golden Jade Lingzhi, even if you manage to obtain Rank Two demonic pills, you can only attempt to refine Foundation Building Pills. But obtaining Rank Two demonic pills is extremely difficult."

"After all, not every Rank Two demonic beast will have Rank Two demonic pills inside them. Sometimes, you can kill a dozen of them and get nothing in return."

"And if you kill too many Rank Two demonic beasts, it might even trigger a beast tide."

Shen Wan said with emotion.

"A beast tide? What does that mean?"

Zhou Sui curiously asked, as he didn't have much knowledge about Cloud Mist Mountain Range.

"It seems that Fellow Daoist Zhou hasn't really understood Cloud Mist Mountain Range. You should know that deep within Cloud Mist Mountain Range, there are Rank Three demonic beasts, terrifying creatures comparable to Gold Core cultivators."

"Most of the Rank Two demonic beasts living in Cloud Mist Mountain Range are under the command of those Rank Three demonic beasts."

"If a large number of Rank Two demonic beasts die, it will anger the Rank Three demonic beasts."

"Throughout history, many beast tides in Cloud Mist Mountain Range were caused by Rank Three demonic beasts."

"If a beast tide really happens, it will likely sweep through the entire Cloud Mist Mountain Range, causing countless cultivators to die."

"Of course, it's also highly unlikely to kill enough Rank Two demonic beasts."

"After all, even for Foundation Building cultivators, killing a Rank Two demonic beast is an extremely difficult task."

"But Fellow Daoist Zhou doesn't need to worry about this."

Shen Wan laughed heartily.

He didn't pay much attention to the so-called beast tide because Cloud Mist Mountain Range hadn't experienced one for a long time.

Moreover, it was simply a pipe dream to think about hunting a large number of Rank Two demonic beasts.

After all, it was very difficult to find a Rank Two demonic beast in the endless misty forest.

And one had to be constantly vigilant against the attacks of demonic beasts.

If you were careless, it wouldn't be you hunting the Rank Two demonic beast, but the Rank Two demonic beast hunting you.

Basically, most cultivators who entered Cloud Mist Mountain Range were only looking to gather various spiritual herbs, hunt some Rank One demonic beasts, and earn a large number of spirit stones.

"I see, I will keep this in mind."

Zhou Sui suddenly felt a chill.

No wonder he always sensed a faint threat deep within Cloud Mist Mountain Range. He didn't expect that there was actually a Rank Three demonic beast living there, a presence comparable to a Gold Core cultivator.

If he angered the Rank Three demonic beast, he wouldn't even know how he died, let alone have a chance of winning.

But his opponents were only Rank Two demonic beasts, so the situation was still manageable.

"Alright, our base camp is in a valley not far from here. If Fellow Daoist Zhou obtains any spiritual herbs or treasures, you can come to us for exchange. We can share our gains."

"In fact, the cultivators living deep within Cloud Mist Mountain Range often trade treasures among themselves, and everyone gains a lot."

Shen Wan said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, if I need anything, I will definitely come to you for a trade."

Zhou Sui nodded.

Whoosh!

After saying these words, this group of people seemed to have just come to say hello and quickly left.
