"Yes, that's right. This medicinal herb is indeed excellent for making Qi Gathering Pills. Moreover, I know of a place where this herb is found, and the herbs there are also extremely precious."
"Where?" Lin Yu asked.
"Snow Cloud Peak!" the maid replied.
"Hmm?" Lin Yu's mind jolted slightly. "Snow Cloud Peak?"
Lin Yu was somewhat familiar with this name. As far as Lin Yu knew, Xueyun Peak's reputation in the cultivation world seemed to be quite high.
This force was once one of the three strongest sects in the cultivation world, and its influence in the cultivation world was also very large.
However, this power has declined in recent years.
Not long ago, the person in charge of this force issued a kill order in the cultivation world, offering a reward for the capture of Xue Qianxun.
At that time, Lin Yu happened to be near Snow Cloud Peak.
At that time, Lin Yu was in seclusion on Snow Cloud Peak, so he did not participate in the battle and let the cultivators fight it out themselves.
As a result, they attracted the pursuit of the group of cultivators. In the end, it was the Golden Core stage elder who intervened and finally repelled the group of cultivators.
However, after that, the elder went into seclusion and did not pay much attention to other matters.
However, Lin Yu learned an important piece of information from this incident.
The master of Snow Cloud Peak went into seclusion because he was injured. This time, he went into seclusion to recuperate, so there shouldn't be any experts on Snow Cloud Peak during this period.
"Snow Cloud Peak? Looks like I'll have a chance to go check it out!" Lin Yu muttered to himself.
Then, Lin Yu took out a storage ring, exchanged all the spirit stones inside for gold coins, and handed them to the shopkeeper to resell.
After finishing these tasks, Lin Yu headed straight for Snow Cloud Peak.
Snow Cloud Peak is the name of a mountain range. In Lin Yu's memory, it was a place rich in Spiritual Qi, the entrance to a special place on Snow Cloud Peak, and a sacred place for Snow Cloud Peak disciples to cultivate.
The sect leader of Xueyun Peak, Xue Qianxun, resides on Xueyun Peak.
After entering the city, Lin Yu headed straight for Snow Cloud Peak.
Along the way, he also inquired about many things concerning Snow Cloud Peak.
Xueyun Peak does not cover a large area, only about five or six hundred li in circumference, but this area is the most prosperous and wealthy part of Xueyun Peak.
Within this area of five or six hundred miles, there are hundreds of sects of cultivators, as well as some large shops and auction houses. In this place, as long as you have money, you can buy a lot of things.
The sect leader of Snow Cloud Peak is named Bai Yunfei, and he is a cultivator at the early stage of the Golden Core realm.
In the world of cultivation, being at the early stage of the Golden Core realm is considered extremely powerful, and one could be regarded as a strong individual.
This time, Bai Yunfei's seclusion was not only to heal his injuries, but also to break through to a higher level.
After all, Bai Yunfei is already quite old. In a few months, he will be in his forties or fifties. If he doesn't break through to the next level, his lifespan may really be short.
This time, he could be considered to have taken a risk.
There was actually another reason why he wanted to break through.
That is, if he wants to break through, he must have a golden core; otherwise, he is very likely to die!
Those who cultivate immortality have very long lifespans.
However, this lifespan is not without limitations.
For a powerful individual like him, if he doesn't possess enough Golden Cores, his lifespan will continuously decrease. Moreover, as his lifespan decreases, his cultivation level will also decline, eventually leading to his death when his lifespan is exhausted.
This situation is extremely dangerous in the celestial realm.
Life in the immortal realm is extremely long; even in the immortal realm, once one's lifespan is exhausted, there is a high chance of death.
Therefore, after learning that he was facing the end of his life, Bai Yunfei began to consider how to improve his strength.
This time, he went into seclusion on Snow Cloud Peak.
He needs to find a place with relatively abundant Spiritual Qi that is also suitable for his cultivation so that he can go into seclusion.
Within Snow Cloud Peak lies a magnificent mountain range, the perfect place for him to cultivate in seclusion.
The Spiritual Qi in this mountain range is abundant, and there is also a very hidden passage within it. It is a concealment formation that, if concealed by this formation, would be undetectable even to cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm.
This concealment formation was specifically designed for powerful cultivators in the cultivation world.
This formation is so powerful that it cannot be detected by ordinary Golden Core cultivators.
This formation is the protective formation of Snow Cloud Peak, and one of the main defensive formations of Snow Cloud Peak.
Once this grand formation is activated, even a Spirit Transformation Realm expert might not be able to break through it.
This grand formation is also Xueyun Peak's most important asset.
With the protection of this formation, there is no need to worry too much about the safety of Xueyun Peak.
Of course, the formations within Snow Cloud Peak can also withstand any external invasion.
After all, there is a Golden Core cultivator here, and even a Spirit Transformation cultivator might not dare to venture in rashly.
Of course, even a Nascent Spirit Transformation stage expert wouldn't easily break into this formation. After all, although it's a defensive formation, it's also a very powerful offensive formation.
Once this formation is activated, it will unleash tremendous power. At that time, even a Spirit Transformation cultivator would likely be trapped and killed within it.
However, this formation has a drawback: it can only be used for about five minutes.
If the spiritual energy of this formation is not restored within five minutes, then the formation will automatically activate, and at that time, it will be beyond the ability of a Golden Core cultivator to withstand.
Moreover, the key to this formation is the sect leader of Snow Cloud Peak.
The sect leader is the core of the entire formation!
It took Lin Yu more than two hours to reach Snow Cloud Peak.
However, as Lin Yu approached Snow Cloud Peak, his expression instantly turned somewhat grim.
Because he discovered that the elemental energy surrounding Snow Cloud Peak was extremely scarce!
This place is no longer suitable for cultivating immortality.
Moreover, he discovered that the area surrounding Snow Cloud Peak had already begun to show traces of demonic energy fluctuations.
What does this mean? It means that this demonic energy has been spreading here for who knows how many years, probably well over 50,000 years!
"Damn it! Snow Cloud Peak, this demonic energy is actually spreading here!"
Lin Yu's face was filled with shock.
In Lin Yu's view, the spread of demonic energy was a natural disaster and a man-made calamity. There is a cause and an effect. This demonic energy was caused by a kind of Devil Beast in Snow Cloud Peak, which led to the spread of demonic energy in Snow Cloud Peak.
