Chapter 68

The Origin Mountains span a vast distance of ten thousand miles in any direction, making them incredibly expansive. The terrain within the mountains is rugged, with dense forests and valleys, making it extremely difficult to traverse. This is why Chen Shuang and his two companions took a whole month to chase the big yellow dog and eventually got lost.

The big yellow dog was incredibly perceptive and knew the paths very well. Under his guidance, they had traveled a thousand miles in just half a day. By this point, the level of the beasts had also increased.

Beasts in the outer regions of the mountains were generally just wild animals or ferocious beasts. After traveling a thousand miles, they encountered beasts that had reached the Qi Sea Realm, many of which were in the late Qi Sea Realm, making them extremely powerful.

Of course, this level of power was relative. For Jiang Chen and his two companions, these beasts were still too weak.

Currently, Jiang Chen and Yan Chenyu were both early-stage Human Pill Realm experts, and the big yellow dog, after awakening his innate abilities, had also reached the Human Pill Realm. This powerful combination could almost walk through the Origin Mountains with ease.

Of course, they still needed to be cautious in dangerous areas. The Origin Mountains were ancient, and who knew what strange creatures might appear in the depths. Therefore, the deeper they went, the slower their pace became.

Roar!

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from the bushes ahead, followed by a wave of scorching heat. Jiang Chen looked over and saw two tigers with spotted fur suddenly appear.

These two tigers were over a man's height, robust and fierce. They looked identical, with bloodthirsty eyes fixed on Jiang Chen and his companions, full of savagery.

"Twins, both in the late Qi Sea Realm. Haha."

Jiang Chen chuckled, looking relaxed. They had not encountered any beasts blocking their path on this journey, and they had not had a single battle for half a day. He did not expect to meet two such foolish ones here.

"Hehe, these two little tigers are really blind. They didn't run away when they saw us, but came to seek death. Watch me bite them to death."

The big yellow dog grinned maliciously and raised his head, heading towards the twin tigers.

Roar!

The twin tigers roared again. Although they were in the late Qi Sea Realm, their combined strength due to being twins made them a match for early-stage Human Pill Realm experts.

The twin tigers leaped together, soaring over ten feet high, pouncing at the big yellow dog. The air crackled as their massive bodies moved, showing their formidable power.

"Hehe, trying to be fierce with me? You're far from it."

The big yellow dog laughed and leaped, transforming into a golden light. He collided with one of the tigers, his body glowing with a faint golden light.

Bang!

A loud thud and the sound of bones breaking echoed. The once fierce spotted tiger let out a惨叫, its robust body flying like a broken kite.

Bang, bang, bang...

The spotted tiger crashed into over a dozen trees, spewing blood, and finally landed twenty feet away, creating a large crater. It twitched once and then fell silent.

Seeing its companion die, the other spotted tiger became enraged and charged at the big yellow dog like a madman. However, its speed was far too slow compared to the big yellow dog. The big yellow dog opened his massive mouth, and with a speed like lightning, bit down on the tiger's neck.

Swoosh!

A jet of blood spurted from the tiger's neck. The big yellow dog tore a large chunk of flesh, leaving a huge bloody hole.

Such a wound was fatal, and the spotted tiger instantly lost all its fighting ability, howling in pain. But it was not over yet. The big yellow dog, being so ruthless, slammed his steel-hard head into the tiger's forehead, causing its brain to explode and its spirit to be squeezed out, leading to its immediate death.

"Hehe, two little tigers, daring to fight me. You really don't know when to die."

The big yellow dog laughed triumphantly, finding a sense of bloodlust in the mangled bodies of the tigers.

"Damn, when did this dog advance?"

Jiang Chen rolled his eyes. When the big yellow dog first attacked, Jiang Chen could see that it had already advanced to the Human Pill Realm, which made him feel quite depressed. This dog, which spent its days eating and sleeping, had advanced silently, which was quite demoralizing.

"Little dog, you're too ruthless."

Yan Chenyu glared at the big yellow dog. She was still not used to such a bloody scene. If it were her, she would have just killed the tigers, not used such ruthless methods.

Thud!

The big yellow dog, who had been strutting around arrogantly, suddenly fell to the ground and then got up angrily, standing on its hind legs and glaring at Yan Chenyu. "Don't call me little dog. What's little about me? I'm not a dog."

The big yellow dog roared, unable to tolerate being called little. It was an insult to his robust body.

"Little dog, you look cute when you're angry."

Yan Chenyu blinked her bright eyes, not at all afraid of the angry big yellow dog.

Thud!

The big yellow dog fell to the ground again. What the hell? Using "cute" to describe him? Can't you see how ruthless I am? Have you ever seen a ruthless dog that's cute?

The big yellow dog was so angry that his body trembled. He finally rolled his eyes and sighed, deciding to be magnanimous and forgive the ignorant girl.

"Ha ha..."

Jiang Chen laughed, thinking the black-hearted dog had finally met its match.

Jiang Chen walked up to the two tigers and picked up their spirits. The spirits of late Qi Sea Realm beasts were not very useful to him, but they were still valuable and should not be wasted.

Over the next seven days, Jiang Chen and his companions traveled four thousand miles, which was an extremely slow pace. They encountered many powerful beasts, even some early-stage Human Pill Realm beasts, but the big yellow dog ruthlessly dealt with them all, venting his frustration with Yan Chenyu on these beasts. Their fates were too gruesome to describe.

"This place is the deepest part of the mountains, where even more powerful beasts might appear."

Jiang Chen said.

"We are walking in a straight line, and this is the most dangerous area of the mountains. But the more dangerous it is, the more likely it is to have good things. Damn, we've been walking for so long and haven't found anything useful."

The big yellow dog said angrily, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, trying to find something valuable.

"Let's go, there's nothing truly valuable here."

Jiang Chen shook his head. With the experience of a sage, his perception of valuable items was far beyond that of ordinary people. If there were any true treasures nearby, he would have sensed them.

"Brother Jiang Chen, let's hurry and leave these mountains as soon as possible."

Yan Chenyu said. After these seven days, she had become accustomed to the big yellow dog's ruthlessness, which was good for her. The more she experienced, the more mature she would become.

"Agreed, this area is too remote, and the elemental energy is scarce, so it's unlikely to produce any true treasures."

Jiang Chen nodded. The elemental energy often creates treasures in special places and conditions, but this requires a certain premise. Where the elemental energy is scarce, it is unlikely to produce valuable treasures.

This is also why there is a significant gap between cultivators in different regions. The difference in elemental energy leads to differences in cultivation, and with the scarcity of elemental energy, the gap only grows larger.

In Chicheng, a Human Pill Realm expert is a true master, respected by all. But in the Divine Continent where Jiang Chen came from, even a Heaven Pill Realm expert would have no place to survive. This is the difference.

The two humans and the dog continued on their journey. After about two or three miles, the big yellow dog's ears twitched, and he sniffed the air, then turned left.

"Little dog, where are you going?"

Yan Chenyu asked.

"Shut up and follow me."

The big yellow dog said without turning back. He had reluctantly accepted the name "little dog" from Yan Chenyu, as the saying goes, "Life is like that, if you can't resist, you have to endure." However, he swore that only Yan Chenyu could call him that. If anyone else dared to call him "little dog," he would tear them apart.

"What did the dog find?"

Jiang Chen frowned and quickly followed the big yellow dog.

They passed through a dense forest and came to a small valley. In the valley was a large pond, which looked clear and ordinary from the outside.

"Big Yellow, this valley is very ordinary. Why did you bring us here?"

Jiang Chen asked, puzzled.

"See that pond?"

The big yellow dog's eyes gleamed as he looked at the pond in the valley.

"It's just an ordinary pond."

Yan Chenyu said seriously.

"There's a treasure in the pond."

The big yellow dog grinned.

"Big Yellow, are you joking? It's just an ordinary pond. What treasure could there be?"

Jiang Chen sneered. He had already used his divine sense to scan the pond, which was completely ordinary, with nothing in it.

"Kid, you dare to doubt me?"

The big yellow dog bared his teeth at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen frowned, realizing the big yellow dog was not joking. Given the dog's extraordinary abilities, there might be something in the pond. So, Jiang Chen activated the Great Derivation Soul Cultivation Technique, and his powerful soul force explored the pond. When his soul force reached about ten feet from the pond, it could not penetrate any further, as if blocked by an invisible barrier.
