"However, Mount Tai is indeed as extraordinary as Wang Tengfei and the others said. The folded space on the summit even has ferocious beasts moving around; other famous mountains don't have this..."

Mu Jinyu's eyes narrowed, beginning to feel that the situation was tricky.

If it truly was as Wang Mao speculated, and these ferocious beasts could eventually break out, it would indeed be quite problematic.

Moreover, it's still uncertain what rank those ferocious beasts exactly are.

If they're just Second Rank Ferocious Beasts, equivalent to Divinity Transformation Realm strength, then it's quite manageable.

But considering that Wang Mao himself was at the Divinity Transformation Realm at the time and wouldn't have been frightened by Second Rank Ferocious Beasts...

Then, they should be Third Rank Ferocious Beasts.

But are Third Rank Ferocious Beasts as large as Wang Mao described?

If they are Rank Four Ferocious Beasts, or even higher level...

If they truly break out, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to withstand them either!

Mu Jinyu felt a bit of a headache.

The pressure is immense!

Unfortunately, the Mount Tai summit is currently inaccessible. Otherwise, Mu Jinyu would have planned to personally go and see what rank the ferocious beasts active in the folded space at the Mount Tai summit are.

While Mu Jinyu was contemplating these matters, with a changing expression.

Wang Xingyang, waiting by the side, also read through these texts along with Mu Jinyu.

His face instantly turned ashen, his heart cooling to the core.

Then he noticed Mu Jinyu's fluctuating expression and became even more fearful, worried that Mu Jinyu might, in a fit of rage, obliterate their Dan Pavilion.

"Dragon Master, I... I truly didn't know my uncle was up to these things, I..."

He became somewhat incoherent, not knowing what to say, how to plead, to make Mu Jinyu spare them.

Wang Xingyang's words snapped Mu Jinyu out of his thoughts.

He turned to look at Wang Xingyang, who was about to kneel, slightly circulated his True Yuan to prevent him from kneeling, and said, "What are you doing, I have no intention of blaming you guys!"

"Moreover, the true cause of the Spiritual Energy Revival may not necessarily be due to your uncle taking that stone box either."

Wang Xingyang felt a sense of relief as he heard Mu Jinyu's words, realizing there was no overwhelming fury in his voice and he was actually talking to him calmly.

"Dragon Master... thank you for understanding us..."

Wang Xingyang said with a choked tone, his face showing immense relief.

Mu Jinyu, seeing this, sighed slightly and thought to himself that he didn't want to waste words comforting a grown man like Wang Xingyang. With the origin of the mystical little tree he was investigating now having a clue, he could leave.

Thus, he took out several jade bottles, placed them on the table, and said, "Here are some elixirs, both second rank pills and third-grade pills, as a reward for your help in finding these documents and seeds. Well, I'm leaving now, no need to see me off. Goodbye."

With that, Mu Jinyu flickered and teleported away from the Dan Pavilion.

"Dragon Master..."

Wang Xingyang hadn't expected Mu Jinyu to just leave, thinking he had exited through the window and instinctively walked to the window to look out, but did not see Mu Jinyu's figure.

"The Dragon Master's speed is really fast..."

Wang Xingyang murmured, not thinking much into it, and then let out a long breath, finally feeling like he had narrowly escaped with his life.

Afterward, Wang Xingyang thought of the several jade bottles and words left by Mu Jinyu before he left, and his eyes brightened.

"Are there really third-grade pills?"

He hurriedly stepped to the desk, picked up all the jade bottles, and uncorked them one by one.

"They really are third-grade pills!"

Wang Xingyang sniffed the Dan Fragrance, then poured out a pill and, seeing the seven Taoist Patterns on it, was immensely shocked and exclaimed, "Seven... Seven Pill Patterns?! These are top-quality third-stage pills!"

Wang Xingyang once again turned his gaze to the sky outside the window, staring at the blue sky, and muttered, "The Dragon Master sure is generous..."

...

Abroad.

Yu Shenfeng, San Liu, Qiu Bai, and Chen Xiuying's pursuit of Fallen Splendor, Paradise Lost, Withered Tree Quest for Spring, and Omniscient continues.

On a solitary island.

With a "boom," suddenly, flames filled the sky, followed by countless mechanical fragments flying everywhere.

In no time, Chen Xiuying's graceful figure walked out of the sea of fire, her expression calm, then soared through the air, leaving afar.

Indeed, beneath this solitary island, a Withered Tree Quest for Spring research institute was hidden. Yet, though concealed deeply, those researchers ultimately couldn't engage in fasting and still needed to eat. Hence, Chen Xiuying followed the clues to find it and, after Withered Tree Quest for Spring's resistance, completely destroyed it.

On the other side.

In Europe, in the wilderness of some country.

Yu Shenfeng, chasing the members of Fallen Splendor, walked slowly to this place.

He stepped on dead leaves, yet made no sound, appearing ghostly.

And ahead, there stood an abandoned church, its lights flickering a bit in the dim moonlight, exuding a mysterious aura like a ghostly castle...

This place originally belonged to the outskirts of the city, sparsely populated but still frequented by some for gatherings.

But with the Spiritual Energy Revival, ferocious beast tides attacked human towns everywhere, leading to these towns being uninhabited.

Though after more than a year, the ferocious beast tides were restrained, with beasts occupying the wilderness instead of attacking human cities as much, no one would dare return here, resulting in its complete abandonment over time.

Originally, for safety's sake, Fallen Splendor members wouldn't hide here.

But in recent days, Yu Shenfeng started to obliterate Fallen Splendor; wherever he passed, any division of Fallen Splendor would crumble and none would survive...

Fallen Splendor couldn't figure out how Yu Shenfeng became so well-informed. Could he be colluding with Omniscient?

Thus, they dared not stay at their original divisions, fleeing to the wilderness, hiding in abandoned castles, churches, and manors instead.

They hoped to avoid Yu Shenfeng's pursuit and were frantically contacting the Curse World Master!

"Damn it!!"

"Yu Shenfeng still tracked us down!"

"What do we do? We just contacted the Curse World Master, and he told us to stall Yu Shenfeng, but he can't seem to rush over to save us!"

"Stop talking and run!"

Inside the decrepit church, more than a dozen pale men in suits spoke to each other, one shouting as they prepared to escape through the back door!

"Bang!"

As one opened the door, he was suddenly grasped by the throat by Yu Shenfeng, who appeared and broke his neck.

While twisting his neck, Yu Shenfeng pressed on his forehead, conducting a Soul Search!

In the past, when they eradicated these organizations, they hadn't mastered Soul Search, and caused unnecessary uproars.

But now, in the era of Spiritual Energy Revival, who knows how many have died. These Vampires, Werewolves, and Witch-ghouls, killed and Soul Searched, who cares?

Who would cry out for humanity?!

"Kill!"

During the Soul Search, Yu Shenfeng's eyes lit up, discovering that one of them seemed to have made contact with the Curse World Master.

"Finally, a clue about that Vampire?"

Yu Shenfeng's expression grew cold, speaking in a low voice before rushing into the panic-stricken crowd, slaughtering and conducting Soul Searches!

Seeking the Curse World Master's whereabouts!

After a while.

The harrowing screams ceased.

Yu Shenfeng wiped the blood off his hands, sorted out the clues gained from the Soul Search, and stepped toward the distance.
