The long team trudged through the dense mountain forest.
Ahead, there are steep and steep mountains, one after another, with no end in sight.
In the depths of this Jade Dragon Mountain Range, there are no existing roads for passage. The abundant Spiritual Qi in the mountains makes vegetation grow very quickly, and the trails trampled by wild beasts will disappear after just one rain.
Therefore, the ferryman leading the way had to use Law Artifact to open a passage in the dense forest.
When his mana is exhausted, his companions take over.
It was already the twenty-third day into the mountain. According to the plan, the journey was about to be completed, but it was still halfway.
This is also something that cannot be done.
Not only did this team lose nearly forty members, but Mountain-Quelling Rhinoceros, who was responsible for the transportation, suffered more than half of his casualties.
Most importantly, the second half of the trip is the most difficult and dangerous.
To ensure safety, the ferryman leading the team could only slow down to avoid making the same mistake again.
However, as a result, the atmosphere in the team showed no signs of improvement for several days.
Many people had tired and irritable looks on their faces.
For powerful monks, the hardships of the journey are nothing. Traveling thousands of miles is easy. The main reason is that the mental pressure is too great.
After that battle, the team was on full alert for the slightest movement.
I'm afraid Great Demon will make a comeback.
As time passed, even Purple Mansion monk could not remain calm.
The road ahead seems to be endless!
Everyone was in a bad mood, and Wang Chen became the one to take the blame.
The reason is simple. While everyone is suffering, Wang Chen is enjoying all the blessings. The most outstanding female cultivator in the team marries dao companion. The two of them ride a Mountain-Quelling Rhinoceros together, as close as a newlywed couple.
How could it not make people envious and jealous!
And Wang Chen is also used to the hostile looks that fall on him from time to time.
Feeling bored, he simply fell to the back of the team.
Anyway, we parted ways after the Jade Dragon Mountain Range. There is no need to have a good relationship with these people.
The ragtag group of people who originally signed up for support could not count on others' sincere help when it came to a life-or-death situation.
Wang Chen is ready to fly solo.
If he is attacked by Great Demon next time, he must save his life first!
At most, if you have enough energy, run with Li Yi'an in your arms.
One night of husband and a hundred nights of grace, although they belong to dao companion, as the first woman after Wang Chen's rebirth, it is undoubtedly impossible to say that there is no emotion.
Even if Li Yi'an took the initiative to get close to Wang Chen in order to break through the bottleneck, he also received great benefits.
Wang Chen even thought about becoming a real dao companion with the other party.
But Li Yi'an obviously has no such meaning.
She told Wang Chen that she was a lotus girl trained by a certain sect. She had been practicing "Primordial Yin Harmonization Secret Method" since she was a child, maintaining a pure yin body until Break Through Apertures and Open the Mansion, and then acting as a training cauldron for elders to break through bottlenecks.
Or it can be given as a gift to the senior officials of other sects to enjoy.
However, Li Yi'an was not willing to be reduced to a furnace. After being promoted to the Purple Mansion, she found a good opportunity to sneak out of the mountain and ran to Flying Immortal City to West Sea Spirit Domain, thus gaining the freedom she dreamed of.
No matter how powerful Li Yi'an's sect is, it has no influence on West Sea Spirit Domain.
At the same time, she also knows very well that true freedom requires strong power to achieve.
Therefore, Wang Chen, who has the body of Pure Yang, was chosen as the halfway dao companion.
"You're getting an advantage!"
After a certain double cultivation, Li Yi'an said to Wang Chen with a bright face, "You will know how much benefit you have gained in the future!"
Thinking of this, Wang Chen gently hugged the waist of the beautiful woman in his arms.
Li Yi'an turned around, his eyes filled with affection.
"Mountain Lord Temple is here!"
At this moment, the ferryman's voice came from ahead.
With a hint of relieved joy.
After passing through dense woods, an open valley appeared in front of the team.
Above the valley, a huge temple stands impressively.
This temple has obviously been abandoned for a long time. Green vines cover the mottled walls. Most of the buildings are covered by tall trees, but the cornices and brackets can still be seen.
After trekking such a long distance in the boundless Jade Dragon Mountain, usually camping in the wild, it is undoubtedly a surprise to suddenly see the creations of civilization.
The ferryman told everyone that when they arrived at Mountain Lord Temple, there were only five days left to West Sea Spirit Domain.
Everyone takes a day's rest here before continuing on the road until West Sea Spirit Domain!
After the ferryman's announcement, the morale of the team rose at a visible rate.
Many monks showed happy smiles.
No matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as you can get out of Jade Dragon Mountain alive, that is success and victory.
A team of more than a hundred Mountain-Quelling Rhinoceross filed in through the opened Mountain Lord Temple main entrance.
Three ferrymen with the Purple Mansion cultivation level have already started searching inside.
Make sure no danger exists.
This temple covers a large area and is divided into the front hall, the main hall and the back hall, as well as many side halls and wing rooms.
Not to mention a mere two hundred monks, even ten times more people can easily accommodate it.
It's just that no one is maintaining and cleaning the temple, so it is overgrown with weeds and fallen leaves, making it look particularly desolate.
The three ferrymen quickly completed the search.
Except for some foxes and hares that live in the temple, there are no demons.
Everyone used Spirit Beast Bag to put away Mountain-Quelling Rhinoceros, and then camped in the Mountain Lord Temple main hall.
This is also the ferryman's request.
Although there are many places for people to live in this temple, as long as they don't step out of the Jade Dragon Mountain Range, danger is everywhere, and they cannot be separated for safety.
The main hall is more than ten feet high. It is very spacious inside and houses a stone statue of a tiger.
Tigers are tigers, and only Demon King level tigers can bear this name.
In this world, August Heaven and Earth Mother are the main priests, and the rest are wild priests and obscene priests.
This Mountain Lord Temple is a typical wild sacrifice. It was built in Jade Dragon Mountain for some unknown reason, and the scale is so large!
The three ferrymen began to set up a temporary defensive array.
The thick dust on the ground was first cleared away, and then the eight array disks were placed around the hall.
When the light of the magic circle spread evenly throughout the main hall, the monks truly relaxed.
Some took out tents and set up tents, some gathered in small groups to chat, and some set up fires.
The atmosphere became heated.
Wang Chen also brought out his own Black Clam Tent, as well as charcoal stove hot pot and so on.
It's getting dark soon, and it's just time to have dinner.
Li Yi'an was not idle either and helped him prepare.
The two of them cooperated so well that they actually felt a bit like a couple.

I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and a happy reunion between man and moon!
