Special War God

This was almost like calling him "husband" directly, and Xia Zhongnan could only smile bitterly.

Tu Shan Fang Er said again: "Brother Linghu, you should cultivate your true essence first. I will be nearby to protect you."

After saying that, she flew towards the top of the mountain.

Xia Zhongnan couldn't figure out what she meant by this action. Was she really trying to protect him, or did she have other intentions?

Tu Shan Fang'er turned around and said to him, "I am not from the Zhuyan tribe. I have long seen that Brother Linghu looks strong on the outside, but is seriously worn out on the inside. Just focus on your cultivation. No strange beasts will come to harass you again."

When Xia Zhongnan saw Tu Shan Fang'er disappear into the jungle, he no longer had time to worry. He immediately sat cross-legged and began to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to practice.

After all, this is the site of an immortal palace. Xia Zhongnan feels that the essence of heaven and earth here is more intense than that in the world of cultivation. He gradually immerses himself in a state of cultivation in which he forgets both himself and the world.

Originally, he just wanted to regulate his breathing, but he did not expect that he would unknowingly enter into a deep level of practice. This might have been due to the trust and sense of peace given by Tu Shan Fang'er.

When he woke up, he felt refreshed, and his previous tiredness and weakness had disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, the sun is high in the sky, and the air is filled with the sounds of birds and insects.

Tu Shan Fang'er appeared in front of him again and suggested, "Brother Linghu, your cultivation has been restored. We can set off now!"

Xia Zhongnan replied: "Fang'er, how long will this journey take?"

Tushan Fang'er smiled and said, "Brother Linghu, please just call me Fang'er. I don't like you always calling me Miss Tushan."

Xia Zhongnan readily accepted her suggestion and changed the topic, "Fang'er, how far do we have to walk to reach the edge?"

Tu Shan Fang'er led him to jump onto a towering ancient tree, leaping between the treetops to hurry on, while explaining: "This area is called the 'Secret Valley of Exotic Beasts'. The creatures that entered the Secret Realm of Exotic Beasts earlier often set foot here first, so this place does not belong to any Exotic Beast forces.

We will cross this secret valley and pass through the Taowu Mountains, Bai Ze Plain and Wolong Bay, and then reach the Penglai Fairyland where the Fairy Qingluan is. Fairy Qingluan is very kind, and I will ask her to help us get to the border."

Hearing this, Xia Zhongnan opened his mouth in surprise and asked, "How big is this secret realm of strange beasts?"

Tu Shan Fang'er replied: "I don't know the exact scope, but I know that there is a piece of land in the far east that is covered by clouds and fog all year round. No one can pass through the fog. I think that is the boundary of the secret realm of strange beasts."

Xia Zhongnan asked again: "When we pass through the Taowu Mountains, Bai Ze Plain and Wolong Bay, will those strange beasts cause us trouble?"

Tu Shan Fang Er replied: "Although Taowu is fierce, it loves to sleep. Bai Ze understands human nature. As long as we pass through its territory, it will not cause us any trouble. As for Wolong Bay, there lives a blue dragon with an erratic temper. We will need to find another way to overcome the difficulties."

Xia Zhongnan said in a deep voice: "Why do I feel that what you are describing is quite superficial? Do you really need to slay demons and monsters along the way to reach your destination?"

Tu Shan Yao Er smiled sweetly and responded, "Brother, you should believe that your luck is not so bad!"

Hearing this, Xia Zhongnan's heart trembled slightly. Normally, he only relied on his own strength and wisdom, but never placed his hopes on the vague and uncertain "fortune".

He smiled bitterly: "Isn't there a safer way?"

Tu Shan Yao Er said: "This is the simplest and most direct plan I have thought of. Senior Brother, do you have another good plan?"

Xia Zhongnan was silent. He was really unfamiliar with the environment here and could only follow Tushan Yaoer's instructions.

The two of them leaped to the top of a mountain. Looking up, they saw endless mountains all around them, like a giant dragon winding across the vast world.

Tushan Yaoer pointed in a direction and said, "After crossing several mountains ahead, we will reach Taowu Ridge. Taowu is active at night and sleeps soundly during the day. We will reach the outskirts of Taowu Ridge tonight. If we cross it in daylight tomorrow, we will have overcome the first obstacle."

Xia Zhongnan looked at the magnificent scene before him and couldn't help but feel deeply moved. He didn't expect that the secret realm of exotic beasts in this fairy palace would be of such a scale. If it weren't for Tushan Yao'er's help, it would be extremely difficult for him to explore this secret realm by himself.

The so-called immortal palace, we often heard of "immortal cave" and "fairyland in cave" in the past. This is a microcosm of the vast world. What kind of existence are those legendary immortals?

While the two were talking, they flew down from the top of the mountain to the other side.

Such high and steep mountains are not easy to cross even for a cultivator at the Spiritualization Realm. The two did not stop for a moment along the way until late at night when Tushan Yaoer finally spoke: "Senior Brother Xia, we can rest for a while. After passing this valley, we will reach Taowu Ridge. We can cross it in one breath during the day."

Xia Zhongnan asked: "Does it take us a whole day to cross Taowu Ridge?"

Tushan Yaoer replied: "We need to keep going. By comparison, Wolongyuan is more vast and dangerous!"

Xia Zhongnan thought about it and realized that it was true. In the mortal world, the territory of tigers, leopards and lions was not small, let alone these ferocious beasts. It would be hard to explain if they did not occupy an area of ​​hundreds of miles.

He then said, "We still have a long journey to go tomorrow, so we should replenish our energy. Yao'er, you take a break here for a while. I will go find some food."

Although he is a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm and it is not a problem for him to not eat worldly food on ordinary days, however, since he has some free time, Xia Zhongnan still wants to have a good meal.

Tushan Yaoer readily agreed and lay down on the branch of an ancient tree to take a rest.

During this period of time together, Xia Zhongnan realized that Tushan Yaoer was actually a gentle woman. Her speech and behavior were generous and open, and her words were full of tenderness, so much so that he almost forgot that she was originally a fox.

Thinking of her as a fox, Xia Zhongnan couldn't help but mutter, "I wonder if this Sister Hu likes to eat raw or cooked food? If I saw her holding a piece of raw meat and devouring it, the scene would definitely be...haha!"

In a short while, Xia Zhongnan hunted a musk deer, took out the military dagger he brought from Earth, and quickly skinned and boned it.
