Terrifying indeed, Wolf Bandits below the mountain!
Let's see if the legend is true.
Is there a treasure inside, or perhaps a whole world within it?
Ta-da-da~
Qian Ye was lost in thought when he suddenly heard footsteps. He looked up and saw someone coming up the mountain.
Moreover, it wasn't just one person, but a group of people who climbed the mountain one after another.
Some even came in teams, with one team having as many as thirty-one people.
Moreover, this group consisted mostly of children around ten years old, likely students and teachers from a junior Soul Master who had brought them for the hike.
The others came in groups of three or five, while only one or two individuals came alone.
Generally speaking, people go hiking with companions; it's rare to see someone hiking alone.
The main reason is simple: hiking alone is neither exciting nor safe, so most people hike in groups.
At the very least, you need to find a partner.
Of course, someone like Qian Ye isn't afraid of being alone.
After all, nothing can hurt him; he's the one who hurts others.
Even natural disasters can hardly harm him.
"Brother Ye, it seems quite a few people have come to climb the mountain today," Gu Qingbo said, looking at the crowds coming and going down the mountain.
Qian Ye nodded. "Yes, the weather is nice today, sunny and cool, hiking is definitely a good choice."
"What level are you?" Gu Qingbo suddenly changed the subject.
Qian Ye: "Level 55."
Wow~
Gu Qingbo's mouth dropped open. "Level 55? You're really amazing! I'm only Level 35."
Qian Ye placed his hand on her head and patted it. "It's okay, I'm a few years older than you, so it's normal for me to be a little taller."
"Higher? It's clearly twenty levels higher, okay?" Gu Qingbo smiled wryly. "I suspect you have some misunderstanding about the word 'higher'!"
"I think you're only around twenty, while I'm already eighteen. In two years, I might only get promoted twice at most, which would still put me a huge gap between us."
Qian Ye thought to himself that he was already twenty-four years old, but nothing had changed. After all, he was a god, immortal.
However, for God, age is not important.
In fact, you don't even need to care how old you are.
Anyway, if you're immortal, age doesn't matter.
For an ordinary person, a lifespan of a mere Hundred-Year Hundred-Year, or even less, must be remembered Qingqing and distinctly for every single year.
After all, it's only Hundred-Year; every day that passes is one less day, every year that grows older is one year younger.
For gods, Life is infinite. Generally, without significant harm, whether it's a year, a hundred years, a thousand years, ten thousand years, Hundred Thousand Years, or even longer, it makes no difference to them.
Because after they live for Hundred Thousand Years, they still have Million Years, tens of millions, hundreds of millions, and countless years of lifespan.
Therefore, in God's eyes, lifespan is truly insignificant. ♣☝ 🎀♦
In the eyes of people, lifespan is extremely important, because lifespan is the same as the human being itself; the length of lifespan is equal to the time limit for survival and extinction.
Gods have no lifespan limit, so they don't value time. Humans, on the other hand, have a limited lifespan, which is why they cherish time excessively.
This is the difference between how gods and humans view time.
Humans are within the Five Elements, and their birth, aging, sickness, and death are all governed by the laws of nature. They are creatures that cannot control their own lives and rely on offspring to continue their race.
The Five Elements generate and restrain each other. As long as one does not transcend the Five Elements, one will be restrained, and will experience birth, aging, sickness, and death. Therefore, immortality does not exist within the framework of the Five Elements.
Even gods, who are not outside the Three Realms or the Five Elements, will suffer the cycle of Heavenly Dao if they are punished by Heavenly Dao.
First, take demons for example. Although they have great magical power, they cannot achieve enlightenment. They are still subject to aging and death within the Five Elements and the Three Realms.
Even if they don't die, they will be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao, experiencing a minor tribulation every few years and a major tribulation every many years.
Moreover, they cannot live forever; they will age and become ugly just like humans after a certain age.
Take the White Bone Demon and the Snake Demon from Journey to the West for example. They lived for over Thousand-Year and eventually became old and gray-haired, like grandmothers.
In order to preserve their appearance and live forever, they can only resort to crooked methods, such as absorbing human essence and blood.
Finally, they received a bombshell: eating Tang Sanzang's Flesh could grant immortality.
From then on, Tang Sanzang's journey to the West was fraught with difficulties, and along the way, every demon and monster wanted to kill him and eat his Tang Sanzang's Flesh.
Little did they know, it would have been better if they hadn't eaten Tang Sanzang's Flesh Tang Sanzang's Flesh; if they had, they wouldn't have lived long, and would have died even faster.
After all, they couldn't afford to eat Tang Sanzang's Flesh's flesh, and the forces behind him wouldn't allow it to happen; whoever tried to eat him would be in grave danger.
After all, many demons and monsters perished before they even got to eat any meat.
Other demons and monsters also met a bad end; they didn't get to eat any meat, but instead got into trouble and lost their freedom.
They were either arrested, taken away by higher gods or Buddhas, or blacklisted.
Tang Sanzang's Flesh's flesh is delicious, but you have to be able to afford it.
Qian Ye patted Gu Qingbo's head again. "Qingbo, there's no need to be so pessimistic. Although your cultivation level is low now, it doesn't mean it will be low in the future. Besides, you hadn't met me before. After you meet me, your fate will be rewritten."
"Okay!" Gu Qingbo didn't refute him, which was to give him face, but it didn't mean she believed him. She just thought he was bragging.
But she was wrong; Qian Ye wasn't bragging, he was telling the truth.
Soon, several groups of people climbed up the hillside, and the hilltop suddenly became lively.
Awoo~
Awoo awoo~
Awoo awoo awoo~
Suddenly, a strange cry came from the Heaven Dou Mountain.
Ah~
Ahh~
Ahhh~
Then came a series of screams from humans.
"Run!"
"Damn it, what the hell are those things?"
"Oh no! Run!"
"What is that? Can anyone tell me? What is that?"
"Monsters, those are monsters! Damn it, they eat people, they're ferocious man-eating monsters!"
"I... I know what they are! They're not Soul Beast, they're monsters born from the union of Soul Beast and humans. They're called Wolf Bandits, yes... Wolf Bandits, a bunch of man-eating demons."
"So this is what Wolf Bandits are like. How terrifying! Damn it, how did they get here? They'll kill us all!"
"Wolf Bandits, they're terrifying. I know they're pack monsters; they appear in groups of dozens or even hundreds."
"They're all down there! We can't run downhill, we can only escape uphill! Quick, Lili, run! Run with me!"
"Mom and Dad, I can't run anymore."
"Damn it, they've caught up, there are too many of them, we're no match for them."
"Xiao Ming, don't be afraid. Your teacher is here; we'll be alright."
"Teacher, they're catching up, and I can't run anymore."
"Xiao Ming, hang in there, everything will be alright."
"Teacher..."
"Xiao Ming, run! Run or you'll die!"
Down the mountain, a series of "ghostly wails" and screams rang out.
Immediately, this alerted the people on the mountaintop.
"What's going on? What happened down there?"
"I don't know?"
Everyone crowded to the edge of the mountain, eager to see what extraordinary thing had happened down below.
"Brother Ye, why is there such a sudden chaos down the mountain?" Gu Qingbo asked curiously after hearing the screams from below.
Qian Ye's hearing was incredibly sharp; he glanced down the mountain and immediately understood what was going on. "It sounds like someone is shouting that the Wolf Bandits are coming."
