Misty Canyon

Chapter 41: Misty Canyon

"Teacher, you are so amazing!"

As the eldest disciple, Linley was the first to stand up and dash toward Zhao Nan the moment he landed on the ground, looking at him with a face full of admiration.

"Teacher, you are the best!"

Ace did not stand beside Zhao Nan like Linley; instead, he threw himself directly into Zhao Nan's arms.

Shortly after, Barker and the others also arrived at Zhao Nan's side, saying with faces full of admiration, "Teacher, congratulations on your victory!"

Zhao Nan first hugged Ace, then reached out to pat Linley on the head, and finally nodded toward the five Barker brothers.

He then greeted Hogg and the others.

After finishing his greetings with Hogg and the rest, Zhao Nan urged them to quickly go and soothe the residents of Wushan Town.

After all, with powerhouses descending for two consecutive days, the residents of Wushan Town would surely be feeling fearful, and they were in great need of a leader like Hogg at this moment.

Once Hogg had left, Zhao Nan smilingly led Linley and the others to the backyard, preparing to properly instruct them on how to cultivate.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, another ten days went by.

On this day, after waking up in the morning, Zhao Nan said to Linley and the others, "I am going to leave Wushan Town for a few days. You must listen well to the teachings of Mr. Doering.

Especially you two, Linley and Ace.

You both possess an affinity for earth-style magic, and Mr. Doering is a Saint-level earth mage."

Linley and Ace both nodded, and then Linley asked, "Teacher, why are you leaving Wushan Town?

Can you take us with you?"

Hearing this, Zhao Nan reached out to ruffle Linley's hair and said with a smile, "I am going to the Magical Beast Mountain Range to handle some matters. It is not convenient to bring you along, but I will take you in the future.

And when I return this time, I will bring you gifts."

As soon as Zhao Nan mentioned gifts, Linley and Ace cheered, and the five Barker brothers also revealed smiles.

Clearly, the disciples were all very happy about the prospect of gifts.

Zhao Nan went to bid farewell to Hogg once more, and then his entire body transformed into a streak of light, flying straight toward the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

The place Zhao Nan was heading to was none other than the Misty Canyon that Linley discovered in the original story.

This time, Zhao Nan did not hire any carriages but flew the entire way.

Zhao Nan now possessed quite a reputation across the continent; there are no walls that don't leak, and with the appearance of a new Saint-level powerhouse, every major faction on the Yulan Continent would inevitably take notice.

Furthermore, now that Zhao Nan possessed the strength to defeat Tyrone, he no longer worried about other matters.

Therefore, he flew directly toward the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

Zhao Nan flew for about three days before he finally located that strange Misty Canyon.

The reason it took him three days was not because the canyon was too far from Wushan Town, but because he had to spend a considerable amount of time searching for the location.

Zhao Nan stood in the void, looking at a mountain range that stretched for hundreds of miles, covered in dense forests.

The canyon was located right next to the highest peak of this mountain, forming an incredibly eerie gorge with the surrounding peaks—this was the Misty Canyon that Zhao Nan had set out to find.

The edges of the two peaks forming the canyon were only a single step apart, giving anyone who saw them a sense of profound strangeness.

At the same time, the two peaks were filled with endless white mist, which was why Linley referred to it as the Misty Valley.

Since Zhao Nan had already reached the Saint-level, he naturally did not need to descend cautiously like Linley; he simply floated through the air toward the depths below.

Zhao Nan had not come to the Misty Valley for anything else but the Blue Heart Grass.

One must know that among Zhao Nan's seven disciples, the five Barker brothers had already awakened their bloodlines, and Ace's bloodline concentration was sufficient as well—he simply hadn't awakened it yet due to his young age.

Only Linley lacked sufficient bloodline concentration and had to rely on Blue Heart Grass and dragon blood to awaken it.

The Blue Heart Grass was emerald green, yet it had a blue halo flowing across its surface, looking just like a beautiful piece of jade—it was truly stunning!

In reality, Zhao Nan did not want to come to the Magical Beast Mountain Range to search for this Blue Heart Grass, but it was a rare item that was priceless and unavailable on the market.

Zhao Nan had visited many cities, but he still could not find enough Blue Heart Grass.

Helpless, Zhao Nan had no choice but to come to this Misty Valley to harvest it himself.

Of course, Zhao Nan also left during this period with the intention of letting Linley tame Bebe.

Although Zhao Nan had initially thought about taming Bebe himself, he ultimately gave up on the idea when he considered the existence of the Chief God, Beirut.

One must know that Linley had caught the eye of Beirut while still on the Yulan Continent, and the most important factor was that he had formed an equal contract with Bebe.

While such an equal contract might not be as binding as a master-servant contract, it would not dissipate upon the death of either party; instead, the death of one would cause injury to the other.

As Zhao Nan pondered this, he began to prepare to collect the Blue Heart Grass.

One stalk of Blue Heart Grass after another slowly fell into Zhao Nan's hands, and he then stored them away in his Space Ring.

While collecting the grass, Zhao Nan remained vigilant against attacks from magical beasts.

However, whether it was due to the Momentum radiating from his body or some other reason, the magical beasts that had attacked Linley in the original story did not appear before Zhao Nan even once.

After gathering a significant amount of Blue Heart Grass, Zhao Nan originally intended to leave, but then he thought of the Violet Blood Soft Sword that Linley would later obtain. After a moment of contemplation, he stepped forward and headed deeper into the canyon.

As Zhao Nan journeyed along, he suddenly discovered that the deeper he ventured into this canyon, the more concentrated the magical elements became.

Zhao Nan flew at a high speed, reaching the canyon floor in the blink of an eye, and along the way, he spotted quite a few magical beasts.

For instance, there were Velociraptors, Pterosaurs, Fire Dragons, and a whole host of other draconic magical beasts.

Seeing these magical beasts and sensing the elemental energy of this place, a thought suddenly occurred to Zhao Nan: once Linley and Bebe formed their contract, he could bring his group of disciples here to cultivate.

At the same time, Zhao Nan wondered whether he should still let Linley attend the Ernst Institute now that he had taken him on as a disciple.

If nothing else, there was the matter of his roommates; should he separate them?

Zhao Nan pondered for a long while without reaching a conclusion, so he decided to simply let him choose for himself when the time came.

Zhao Nan's Momentum was sufficiently formidable; under the oppressive aura of a Saint-level expert, those dragon-type magical beasts all hurriedly scrambled to get out of his way.
