"Hm?!" Ye Han's gaze shifted, and he glanced in that direction. He immediately concealed himself against the tree trunk. Runes rippled over his body as he merged with the trunk, letting out not the slightest trace of his aura...
This was the mark of his success in cultivating the fourth level of the Azure Mystic Art after advancing to the foundation establishment realm: he could mimic the aura of vegetation and merge with wood spirit trees.
It was precisely this technique that had allowed Ye Han to fool the Black Mountain Cult's three foundation establishment realm cultivators and quietly escape.
Now that he had used it to merge with a tree, only someone whose cultivation far surpassed his-such as a foundation establishment late stage cultivator with powerful divine sense, or a Golden Core Stage Cultivator-would be able to see through his concealment.
Cultivators at his own level would find it very difficult to detect his presence.
Ye Han had only just concealed his aura.
The distant woods shook as though the earth were quaking and the mountains rocking. Trees swayed incessantly as a slender Five-Poison Twin-Horned Snake, seventy to eighty feet long, came into view. Two fleshy lumps grew on its head, leaking wisps of brilliantly colored poisonous vapor.
The Five-Poison Twin-Horned Snake coiled around a large tree, its enormous eyes fixed on the Millennium Gourd Fruit, its gaze brimming with greed.
At the sight of the Five-Poison Twin-Horned Snake, Ye Han's gaze shifted slightly. Both fleshy lumps on its head were already emitting multicolored poisonous vapor. Clearly, it was a demon beast at the peak of the third tier, and would be no easy opponent.
Especially if its poisonous vapor erupted-even a little contamination would be difficult for him to resist completely with his cultivation.
