The crowd could no longer care about anything else. Even if someone was bitten to death by the poisonous insects, they could only run forward like crazy, shouting for help as they ran, hoping that the elders of the Yin-Yang Sect would turn around and rescue them.

But even after the leopard monster had eaten more than ten people, no one came from the front.

For a moment, the atmosphere of despair began to ferment again. It was not until the leopard monster had eaten and drunk its fill and retreated that a beam of light chased after it.

“This leopard demon is weak, perhaps having just given birth to its cubs, so it took the risk to devour the monks to replenish its vitality.

If we can track it down and find its hiding place, we might even find a few fire leopard cubs." Deng Huaxiu watched the streak of light disappear, a hint of joy in his eyes.

The cubs of the Fire Leopard in the Nascent Soul stage also have a great chance of being promoted to the Nascent Soul stage in the future. Although he doesn't need it, it will be a good income whether he gives it to others or auctions it.

He looked at the group of wandering cultivators who had survived the catastrophe and couldn't help but sneer:

"We said before we entered the mountains that life and death are determined by fate. These losers actually dared to beg for mercy from us. I wonder where they got the nerve to do that."

Ding Tao laughed upon hearing this and said, "Brother Deng, why bother with these ants? Their lives have nothing to do with us. If we didn't need some blood food to attract the monsters' attention and make the journey smoother, we would never have let them follow us."

"Junior Brother Ding is right. Blood food is blood food. You are a bunch of ants, yet you still dream of taking advantage of us. You are really wishful thinking!"

The same scene happened in the other three clans and other families, almost without any particular order.

More than ten Yuanying stage monsters appeared at the locations of various forces almost at the same time as if they had discussed it beforehand, and launched attacks on those independent cultivators.

In just this short period of time, I'm afraid at least hundreds of Jindan cultivators were killed or injured!

Liang Songqing saw that Jiang Han helped those wandering cultivators, so as to show his respect, he asked the two elders to take action and kill the Nascent Soul stage beast, saving the lives of those wandering cultivators.

There was also Mo Qiu Shuang, who helped those wandering cultivators to avoid disaster for Jiang Han's sake.

But other sects and families were not so kind. Their choices were similar to those of the Yin-Yang Sect. They took advantage of the time when the Nascent Soul stage beasts had eaten their fill and sent people to chase them, intending to gain more benefits.

None of the people from these powerful forces care about the lives of these independent cultivators.

After a day, those monsters continued to harass. As long as someone in the Nascent Soul stage took action, they would turn around and run away. After a while, they would launch a sneak attack again.

Of the thousands of independent cultivators, nearly 30% were killed or injured in the continuous harassment.

The few remaining independent cultivators finally faced reality and realized that the big sects and big families did not take their lives seriously at all.

For a moment, except for some monks who relied on their own trump cards, everyone else fled in a hurry.

All the natural treasures, all the flesh and blood of Jindan stage monsters, all the precious resources and herbs, at this moment, are not as important as their lives!

Fortunately, most of the Jindan stage monsters along the way were killed, and those Yuanying stage monsters had just eaten their fill, which allowed many people to escape in a panic.

But what was different from them was that the wandering cultivators following the Sword Sect picked up treasures almost everywhere they went. In addition to the flesh and blood of monsters, they also picked up a lot of natural treasures and various spiritual medicines in the mountains.

Along the way, except for the moment when the bear monster first appeared, we didn't encounter any danger at all, and we were almost always picking up treasures.

Even though they were just low-level herbs and couldn't be considered high-grade treasures, their quantity was enormous. Add to that the flesh and blood of hundreds or even a thousand monsters, and their storage bags were almost full of these things!

But just as everyone was about to move forward, Nanfeng suddenly stopped them.

"The core area of ​​Luoyang Mountain is just ahead. It's too dangerous inside. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator who enters there is in danger of perishing. It's simply not an area for cultivators like us in the Core Formation stage to set foot in."

He pointed at everyone's storage bags and said, "Thanks to His Royal Highness the Saint, we've taken enough treasures this time. There's really no need to risk entering the core area."

Xie Hanfeng looked up at the three peaks that were almost in front of him. It was clearly broad daylight, but the area where the three peaks were located was covered with a layer of dark clouds.

His heart immediately sank, and he stood beside Nanfeng and said, "You are all fellow cultivators who have traveled for many years. You should know the principle of knowing when to quit."

"We've been able to get here today and have so much to gain thanks to the kindness of His Highness the Saint Son. However, the core area is extremely dangerous. If we go there, we will be a burden and will only hinder His Highness. We will surely die."

Those who are able to go against the crowd and follow the Sword Sect into the mountains are almost all smart people, and they know the principle of greed.

After some discussion, everyone decided to leave Luoyang Mountain.

"Then what should we do with these demon pills and precious materials? His Royal Highness the Saint Son is too far away, there is no way we can catch up with them."

"Let's wait outside the mountain. Once His Highness comes out, we'll hand him over to him."

There were so many things that even if His Highness hadn't said anything, they would have felt hot holding them.

……

Five miles ahead, Jiang Han watched them leave and nodded with satisfaction:

"That's right. They're not greedy and know when to stop. It's worth my extra care for them."

Bai Mujian looked at the high mountains ahead and smiled when he heard this, "That's true. As long as they don't get greedy, their harvest today will be enough for them to practice for over a hundred years. There's even hope of achieving a fetus in the future."

"However, you can protect them temporarily, but not forever. With their strength, if they go out to show off, they will probably be torn to pieces by those independent cultivators who didn't get the treasure."

"That won't happen." Jiang Han chuckled. "These independent cultivators who have been struggling for survival for years are the most astute. It's impossible for them not to think of the idea of ​​not showing off their wealth."

"If you really try to show off, you'll only bring disaster upon yourself and there's no way around it."

He looked up at the thick dark clouds, his expression slightly darker:

"Let's go. After we pass this mountain, we should be able to find the black pool."

After he finished speaking, he took a step forward and stepped into the area covered by dark clouds.

A trace of cold air quickly climbed up along the soles of his feet, but was torn to pieces by a lightning snake in the blink of an eye.

This place is indeed a bit strange. The coldness alone is not a place where an ordinary Jindan cultivator can stay for long.

……

Nanfeng and others hurried and finally reached the exit of the mountain range before dark.

"I heard that His Royal Highness the Saint Son was also a free cultivator in the past. No wonder he takes such good care of us."

"Your Highness is kind-hearted, and we cannot cause trouble for him. When we leave, don't tell us how much benefit we have gained. If we have no choice, we can only give out a little and pretend to be poor. Do you understand?"
