Heading north was Jiaomu Ridge, inhabited by numerous Level 20 to 30 monsters, Fire Spirits, Molten Rock Pythons, Mountain Fire Puppets, Flame Zombies…

Xiao Jie pondered for a moment, “Let’s take the main road through Jiaomu Ridge this time.

With our current strength, we should be able to get through it directly.”

Mainly, he was quite confident in his own strength.

Having experienced the earth-shattering battle last night and witnessed the Four Great Masters slaughtering the group of demon leaders, Xiao Jie believed handling some tricky little monsters would be no problem.

Ye Luo and I Want to Be Immortal had also significantly increased their strength, and their equipment had been upgraded.

“Hao Ye Xinghe, do you have any concerns?” Xiao Jie asked.

Among the five people here, he had the lowest level and was the only one who really needed looking after, as the others could at least fend for themselves.

“No problem, Brother Feng, rest assured, I’ve gotten stronger,” Hao Ye Xinghe confidently said.

Xiao Jie didn’t say anything more.

Everyone had to be responsible for their own fate, and since he said so, he must be confident.

“Then let’s head north to Jiaomu Ridge, forward!”

The five riders sped northward.

Following the main road, after about an hour, a towering dark mountain appeared before everyone.

Jiaomu Ridge stretched from east to west, located on the border between Fengyin State and Canglin State, consisting of several undulating mountain ridges.

Between these ridges were narrow paths that people could take.

The group followed a zigzagging mountain path, and it wasn’t long before everything around them turned pitch black.

The ground was scorched black, and the charred wood had turned to charcoal, with some trees still burning.

There weren’t many monsters; they would probably have to go deeper inside to encounter a large group of them.

There were only some Flame Zombies, their bodies engulfed in flames, crawling slowly through the charred earth.

These monsters, like all zombie-type monsters, moved slowly and weren’t a major threat unless approached directly.

But once you entered their territory, they would unhesitantly pounce.

These creatures came with flame retaliation; physical attacks would cause the attacker to lose health even if they struck the zombie, and they would self-destruct when near death.

Xiao Jie tried to fight two, got blown up twice, and immediately backed off.

The explosion damage from the Flame Zombies could reach 200 or 300, and his 20 points of Fire Resistance might as well be nonexistent.

After that, he simply led the team around them.

These monsters didn’t provide much experience and were extremely troublesome, so there was no point in fighting them.

“Hey, this can be collected.” I Want to Be Immortal excitedly said as he used his Woodcutting Skill on a tree.

He obtained a stick of Refined Fire Black Wood.

This was a high-level material for making weapons, selling for 200 wen each in the auction house.

Xiao Jie glanced around, noticing the area was full of such materials.

If one were to gather materials here, they could make a good profit.

Watching I Want to Be Immortal gather several sticks, Xiao Jie nevertheless cautioned,

“Don’t waste time.

I always feel there’s danger here.

We’ve just entered the edge of Jiaomu Ridge.”

This place was indeed dangerous, even the outer circle’s Flame Zombies were so perilous, let alone encountering bigger monsters inside.

Xiao Jie hesitated whether to summon Big Orange and use the Mountain Viewing Skill to observe the terrain, but the Mountain Viewing Skill could only be used once a day, and it could only scout a thousand meters radius—hardly enough to navigate out of Jiaomu Ridge.

However, Hao Ye Xinghe suddenly said, “Brother Feng, I can communicate with the local Wan Ling.

It might help.”

“Then do it.”

Upon receiving the command, Hao Ye Xinghe immediately raised his Sheep Head Magic Wand and started to cast his spell.

As he chanted, his body moved with the spell, and he even started to rap.

“Heavenly Spirit, Earth Spirit, all spirits heed my directive.

Local demons be courteous, local immortals I’ll receive.

First visit I pay respect, any complaints go ahead critique.

Walking past Jiaomu Ridge, a holy place, grant me a free pass.

I ask, can I pass or not, pass or not!”

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use seemed already accustomed to such things.

Xiao Jie listened with a straight face, Ye Luo remained silent, but I Want to Be Immortal was animated.

“Dude, this profession is cool, casting skills like throwing a concert, so slick!”

Xiao Jie thought to himself, what kind of aesthetics are these?

Is this supposed to be stylish?

It’s bizarre.

He couldn’t imagine what the battle style of a Spirit Summoner would be like in future.

However, after finishing the chant, suddenly the ground and fire surged, and several flames merged into a human face.

The face looked majestic, possessing a divine aura.

Huo Yangcheng (Mountain God embodiment): Level 30 deity.

Life Value ????

The Mountain God looked imposing, but Xiao Jie almost collapsed when he spoke.

“I’m a Mountain God of Jiaomu Ridge, hearing that guests have come for a visit.

I’m pleased with the proper respect, I’ll definitively grant you a backdoor, a backdoor.”

Upon hearing this, Hao Ye Xinghe immediately started another chant.

“Great God, I heed your guidance, distinguish between back and front doors.

New to this place, unfamiliar with paths, please show me a way through this door.”

The Mountain God nodded slightly.

“Young brothers, just go ahead, do not mind the ghosts or look back.

When you hit the main road, you need not let anyone pass; on smaller paths, do not pause.

Avoid Fire Spirits when you see them, but you may align yourself with Mountain Demons.

Once you pass the Third Level mountain gate, you’ll arrive at the end of Jiaomu Ridge, at the very end.”

After speaking, the Mountain God embodiment made a hand gesture toward Hao Ye Xinghe, who responded with a gesture in return.

As if confirming a secret signal, the fiery Mountain God disappeared in an instant.
