The scythe-tailed lion also recovered from its daze at this moment, the blood-red in its eyes strangely vanishing without a trace.
First, it shook its head. When its consciousness finally grasped its current situation, it instinctively wriggled its body, trying to struggle and shake off the figure on its back. Its scythe-like massive tail swung and suddenly swept upwards.
Zong Shou, however, remained unmoved. He only slightly shook his head and said, "Not obedient," then grabbed the hilt of the Pine Pattern Wind Sword with his left hand and shook it violently. This made the giant lion immediately let out a miserable cry, its strength instantly reduced by nine-tenths.
Only at this moment did it realize how close it was to death. The sharp blade of the long sword above its head was just a hair's breadth away from its brain. A slight forward thrust would pierce through its skull.
A cold light flashed from the sleeve of Zong Shou's right hand. His fingers held a black willow leaf, gazing into the distance.
Gao Yi smiled at the sight, his figure suddenly floating up. In just a few breaths, he had crossed a hundred feet, landing gracefully on the Wind-riding Colt.
This colt seemed to have been influenced by the demonic intent of the Corpse Demon Mountain, its eyes slightly red. When Gao Yi landed, it suddenly reared up, its movements fierce and wild. Gao Yi, however, remained calm, pointing a finger at the back of the Wind-riding Colt's head. A rune array appeared at his fingertip, instantly calming the spirit colt. He then smiled and said, "Why would Mr. Mi come to the foot of the Corpse Demon Mountain himself? The reputation of the Blood Valley and Corpse Demon Mountain is well-known. Mr. Mi is a great expert of the innate realm; I hope nothing happens to you."
"As long as I don't step into the mountain, a bit of mental interference is nothing to me," the old man surnamed Mi explained coolly, then laughed coldly, "Though my strength is somewhat suppressed, who in this place can do anything to me? Only those innate martial masters with weak wills fear this place like tigers. As for you, have you brought the item? What about that Gong Xinran?"
"Of course, I have it!" Gao Yi smiled, taking out a thick golden book and said, "But I hope Mr. Mi will allow me to make a copy first before presenting this book. As for that woman, I like her very much and want her to accompany me for all eternity."
The old man didn't care much, but when he heard the last sentence, he sneered, "So, you plan to refine her into your Seven Spirit Ring? You are indeed ruthless, and it's not in vain that the old master held you in such high regard."
Gao Yi, however, was not bothered, and smiled, "Our Gao family is new, and without being ruthless, how can we establish ourselves? That woman delayed me for two years, and I had to go to great lengths to make her lose all suspicion. It's really infuriating. Now, I'm just a bit curious. The Martial Canon has been passed down in no less than a thousand copies. If you want it, you could easily obtain it. Why focus so much on this one copy?"
The old man surnamed Mi, upon hearing this, remained noncommittal, and took out a jade bottle from his chest, casually tossing it to Gao Yi, "This is your reward, a high-quality Human Apex Pill refined by the old master using the Nine Heavens Essence and the Sheng Mountain Lotus. There are only forty-nine pills in total, and even I was given one in my early years. Today is your good fortune! As for the Martial Canon, it's not something you can understand."
Gao Yi was slightly pleased, took the jade bottle, and carefully hid it in his sleeve, saying, "Legend has it that this can greatly enhance the strength of any martial cultivator or spirit master who hasn't yet reached the innate realm. It can strengthen the body and soul, saving ten years of cultivation, truly making one's heart itch with desire. By the way, when I entered the Blood Valley, I met someone, the Crown Prince of Qiantian Mountain, Zong Shou. I wonder if it will cause any trouble—"
"The Crown Prince of Qiantian Mountain?"
The old man surnamed Mi had always been indifferent, seemingly lacking energy. But upon hearing this, he was slightly moved. After a moment of contemplation, he returned to his calm state, "Forget it! There's no need to make more powerful enemies. Let him fend for himself; he probably won't live long. If he dies at the hands of someone from Qiantian Mountain, it would be better. But if someone else spills his blood, any faction within Qiantian Mountain will surely go all out to avenge him. Recently, for some unknown reason, he has become involved with the City Lord of Yunsheng City. It's quite amusing; all the forces in the western part of Yunlu want to kill him, yet none dare to make a move easily."
Gao Yi also understood, and laughed coldly, "That waste who can't even open his wheel meridians, if I kill him and throw him into the beast pack, who would know it was my doing?"
PS: A new week has begun, and the strong push has started. This is the last week before going VIP, which is crucial for the initial phase. I beg everyone to give a few recommendation votes to help the initial phase.
There was once a great nation, humble and tolerant, yet mocked by the international community as an evil little white rabbit. Five thousand years of civilization and wisdom gave birth to a genius, who, before he could show his prowess, followed the legendary Jobs to the grave.
In the distant reaches of the cosmos, those who have traveled through time, do you miss Earth and your homeland? I congratulate your organization on gaining a new member: Yao Tong.
Since you have traveled through time, why hide? Live a life of glory and brilliance, cherish every day, and command the world. Who knows if the sun will rise tomorrow!
I also recommend a book, "The World's Most Talented Child," by Coarse Cucumber. Previously, taking care of his son slowed his progress, but now he is about to burst forth.
