At the peak, Du Shaopu's face was somewhat pale. He had just flown at a high altitude and almost vomited the pig's feet he had eaten. More importantly, the earth-shaking beast tide, the fierce birds flapping their wings, and the roaring of ten thousand beasts made Du Shaopu's heart race even from a distance. If he had encountered such a terrifying beast tide, he would have died ten thousand times over. This truly made Du Shaopu feel the horror of the Savage Beast Mountains.

"Things are getting more interesting. I didn't expect there to be such a fierce presence in the Savage Beast Mountains, capable of driving away ten thousand beasts and even producing many powerful demonic beasts. It seems I underestimated these Savage Beast Mountains."

The elegant woman in white smiled slightly as she gazed into the depths from where the beast tide came. Then, she sat cross-legged and quietly, the ancient flute in her delicate hands once again touched her lips. She opened her lips slightly, and the melodious flute sound spread like heavenly music.

The flute sound was graceful and lingered in the air, still the familiar melody. Although Du Shaopu had heard it once before, he was still entranced by it.

Another night passed. When the sky began to brighten, Du Shaopu woke up from the beautiful melody. The flute sound was like a spell, making him completely unaware of his surroundings. Even his soul seemed to have been cleansed, and he felt refreshed and invigorated when he woke up. The elegant woman in white still sat cross-legged with her eyes half-closed.

"What a terrifying beast tide."

When Du Shaopu saw the aftermath of last night's beast tide, the area looked as if it had been hit by an earthquake, and his face showed surprise again. He looked far into the direction of Stone City, which seemed unreachable. This place must be very far from Stone City.

"Scared?"

The elegant woman in white opened her eyes at some point and looked at Du Shaopu.

"It was indeed quite shocking," Du Shaopu admitted. Thinking about last night's terrifying beast tide, it was impossible not to be afraid.

"You did well, but there's no need to be afraid. Your life will be fine before Bai Yibai arrives," the elegant woman in white said to Du Shaopu.

Du Shaopu frowned. Not to mention whether Bai Yibai would come, in this dangerous Savage Beast Mountains, if Bai Yibai really came, would he even survive? Looking at the elegant woman in white, he sighed helplessly, "What if that old man Bai Yibai doesn't come or can't come?"

"Then I'll kill you."

The elegant woman in white looked at Du Shaopu and said, "Let's stay here for a couple more days. There will likely be a big show to watch."

"I'm hungry."

Du Shaopu was helpless. After reaching the center of the Savage Beast Mountains and experiencing last night's terrifying beast tide, even if the woman in white let him go, he couldn't leave.

"Down in the mountains, there should be many demonic beasts that were trampled to death during the beast tide last night. You can find something to eat," the elegant woman in white said, not caring about Du Shaopu's thoughts and not worried about him escaping.

"From this height, I have to go down and then come back up?"

Looking down from the peak, Du Shaopu drew a sharp breath. From the towering peak to the foot of the mountain, and then back up, the mountain path was rugged. Even if it were a flat road, he would be exhausted.

"Anyway, you're the one who's hungry, not me." The elegant woman in white closed her eyes again after speaking.

Du Shaopu gritted his teeth in frustration but had no choice. Finally, unable to resist the rumbling in his stomach, he reluctantly began to climb down the peak.

It took Du Shaopu a full one and a half hours to climb down to the foot of the mountain. Halfway down, he almost fell, and his hands were scraped and bleeding. If not for his cultivation, the consequences would have been dire. An ordinary person would never have been able to make it down.

At the foot of the peak, the aftermath of the beast tide was a mess. Many towering trees were broken in half, and Du Shaopu saw many low-level demonic beast corpses, likely trampled to death by the powerful demonic beasts during the beast tide.

Du Shaopu felt a bit helpless. Although these demonic beast corpses were all low-level, if they could be transported to Stone City, they would fetch a high price.

After searching around, Du Shaopu didn't dare to go far, fearing he might encounter a demonic beast. In the end, he found two smaller low-level demonic beasts: a Crimson Fire Rabbit and a Mystic Ice Snake, and decided to take them up the mountain.

The Crimson Fire Rabbit was about half a meter in size and could spew a red flame from its mouth. It was extremely agile but not very powerful, making it unpopular among demon hunters and not hard to find in Stone City.

The Mystic Ice Snake was also a low-level demonic beast, about three meters long, with a cold body and no poison. However, if bitten, one's entire body could be frozen into ice.

Tearing off a vine and finding some natural seasonings and leaves, Du Shaopu hung the two Crimson Fire Rabbits on his waist and climbed back up the peak.

When Du Shaopu finally reached the peak, it was already noon, and he was exhausted. He lay on the ground for about ten minutes before getting up. The elegant woman in white was still sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, completely ignoring Du Shaopu.

However, when Du Shaopu had roasted one of the Crimson Fire Rabbits to a crispy and tender perfection, the aroma wafting through the air, the elegant woman in white opened her eyes. Just as Du Shaopu was about to enjoy his meal, she reached out and grabbed the entire rabbit.

In Du Shaopu's helpless and angry gaze, the elegant woman in white tore off a rabbit leg and then threw the rest back to him.

After eating and cleaning his mouth, Du Shaopu had nothing to do and began to perfect the Surging Waves Palm. The last time, he had only cultivated the Surging Waves Palm but hadn't had the time to perfect it.

"If I gather more mystical energy at the 'Heavenly Gate' and 'Heavenly Pool,' it won't be overly rigid and lack continuity. The momentum of the surging waves will truly be like surging waves, and it can also make up for the flaws and shortcomings in other areas."

Knowing that the elegant woman in white was a powerful cultivator, Du Shaopu had no reservations in front of her and soon immersed himself in the process of perfecting the Surging Waves Palm.

"Without any cultivation, he can not only cultivate innate martial techniques but also perfect them. A broken martial vein, yet it seems to have recovered somewhat. I didn't expect such a special young man to come from a small border town."

Watching Du Shaopu immersed in the process of perfecting the Surging Waves Palm, the elegant woman in white's eyes showed a hint of波动.

"Roar!"

"Growl!" ...

As night fell, the mountains erupted again, and another beast tide came, even more terrifying than the previous night. The average level of the demonic beasts was extremely powerful, and their terrifying aura made people tremble. Du Shaopu, who was in the midst of perfecting the Surging Waves Palm, was also startled awake.

"Rumble!"

From the depths of the mountains, a large number of demonic beasts came charging, flattening the forests in their path. Fierce birds flapped their wings, breaking tree branches and scattering leaves everywhere.

The roars of the beasts were like thunder, echoing through the mountains. Some lower-level demonic beasts were trampled into meat paste, blood splattering, creating a gruesome and terrifying scene.

"Quickly retreat, this beast tide is dangerous."

In the forest, a bald man with secret patterns on his head swung his powerful fists, each punch sending out runes and shattering a giant beast, leading a few people to avoid the beast tide.

"Retreat to the cliff, and avoid the beast tide first!"

Not far away, in a forest, an old man in black holding a snake-headed cane sent out guiding runes like lightning, each time piercing through the head of a giant beast. Under the protection of several powerful cultivators, he led a few young men and women to the safety of the cliff.
