Murong Bai, as a disciple of the Canghai Sect, had already been in the school for more than half a year. He was originally a person with pretty good talent and strength, especially after he had finally joined the Canghai Sect with everyone. Murong Bai knew that opportunities were hard to come by and that he had to work hard within the sect.
Slowly, Murong Bai became one of the top new disciples in the Canghai Sect, gaining the trust of his teachers. As an important representative of the new disciples, Murong Bai naturally joined the mission this time.
Murong Bai clearly understood how important the Ten Thousand Demonic Ridge battle was to the Canghai Sect. He also planned to make a great contribution to the sect this time. In the future, his sect would pay more attention to him.
As a result, after Murong Bai entered the Thousand Monster Mountain, he put in a lot of effort to help his fellow disciples escape from danger. He also won the love of the crowd, and gradually, he became the core figure among the lower level disciples.
Unfortunately, they had suffered heavy losses in the battle with Elder Centipede, one of the three heads of the Demon Mountain Range. After a bitter battle with Patriarch Yan Jiu and the other disciples, they had finally defeated Elder Centipede and had finally broken through the encirclement.
And the one commanding the Demonic Wolf pack to launch the all-out attack was none other than the Demon King of the Thousand Demonic Mountain, the Three-eyed Ash Wolf!
The Three-Eyed Ash Wolf was also a level five great demon, equivalent to the strength of a human being at the middle phase of the Nascent Soul Stage. As a demon beast, it was stronger than human cultivators of the same level, especially when it matured, it would give birth to a third demon eye on its forehead.
They came and left like the wind, killing people without a trace. Often, before humans could even react, they would discover that several of their comrades had died in the crowd, and when they still wanted to find the culprit, the wolf pack had already run away.
Unfortunately, after the great battle with Old Demon Centipede, even though Yan Jiu and the rest had defeated Old Demon Centipede"s split body and fought their way out, they had encountered an ambush from the Three-eyed Ash Wolf in one of the spiritual veins.
Under the tornado like speed of the demon wolves, the Canghai Sect suffered heavy losses. Many of their disciples were also dispersed by the demon wolves, making it impossible for them to unite.
In order to preserve his strength, Elder Yan could only think of a way to temporarily trap a large portion of the demon wolves and then split them into two groups to escape. At the same time, they agreed to meet at a certain location in the Thousand Monster Mountain.
In order to cover their escape, dozens more disciples from the Canghai Sect died in the mouths of the Demonic Wolves. Although Murong Bai was in extreme grief, he had no other choice but to run away with his fellow brothers. These Demonic Wolves were very fast, if he was even a little bit slower, none of them would be able to escape.
Along the way, they encountered a few more waves of demonic beasts. Murong Bai"s side had less and less people on their side. When they broke out of the encirclement and ran away, they only had less than ten disciples on their side.
They could only think of a way to keep a low profile and go to most of the places Elder Yan Jiu met up with. On their way, they found a thousand-year-old Spirit Ginseng that was protected by a monster!
A thousand-year-old spiritual ginseng was an important treasure even in the world of cultivation. Whether it was used to increase one"s cultivation or to extend one"s lifespan by several hundred years, it was a piece of cake.
It went without saying how important this thing was in everyone"s heart, and their hearts were immediately moved. One must know that besides seizing the spiritual vein resources, their other purpose in coming to the Thousand Monster Mountain was to s.n.a.t.c.h the important treasures here, and they absolutely could not let anyone else rob them.
Furthermore, that demonic beast wasn"t a level five Greater Demon. They still had nine people on their side. If they worked together, it was highly possible that they would s.n.a.t.c.h the thousand-year-old Spirit Ginseng.
After a round of recovery, Murong Bai"s group brazenly attacked and joined forces to kill the demon beast. During this period of time, some of them were also injured by the demon beast, leaving only six people behind.
He had paid quite a price. Murong Bai"s group of six finally received a thousand year old Spirit Ginseng. After putting it away properly, they decided to continue their search for Elder Yan Jiu and meet up with the large group.
After many battles, the six of them were already mentally and physically exhausted, and they were even more cautious on the way.
Coincidentally, at this time, they met a branch of the Five Element Sect. They had about seven or eight people, so they were ordered to search for Soul Treasures, which was also the right path for the top ten sects. Murong Bai"s group was very happy to meet so many people, so they set off together.
These people from the Five Elements Sect were also out on a treasure hunt. They pretended to be good friends and probed a lot, using some unknown method to get a thousand-year spirit ginseng from the six people from the Canghai Sect.
The people from the Canghai Sect, Murong Bai, had already been severely injured after many battles. The enemies had more people than them, and with a sneak attack, how could they be a match for these people"s vicious killing? Many of the Canghai disciples had fallen in an instant.
However, the enemies had also paid a certain price. Several of their comrades had died in the battle. In the end, Murong Bai took the thousand year Spirit Ginseng and escaped under the cover of others.
On the Five Elements Sect"s side, the leader was an old man with the surname Gu. He was a late Aurous Core stage expert, and Murong Bai was already unable to defeat this old man alone, not to mention the four other helpers.
Seeing that he couldn"t get rid of the old man, he hardened his heart. Even if he found a group of demonic beasts here, even if he died in their mouths, he definitely couldn"t let them catch up to him, let alone hand the thousand year Spirit Ginseng over to them!
However, the thing that made him the most speechless was that sometimes, even if they didn"t want to meet any demonic beasts, they would definitely come looking for them. However, he, Murong Baifei, hadn"t found any trace of demonic beasts during this long period of time.
"This brat wants to find a Demonic Beast? Hmph, how can we let him do as he pleases? Let"s finish him off quickly and finish him off..."
The old man surnamed Gu, who was leading the Five Elements Sect, wanted to surround Murong Bai with his junior brothers. But suddenly, a miserable scream rang out from behind them.
"Ahhh … save me …"
"What?!"
At that time, Gu Tianyin was stunned. He subconsciously turned his head and saw that a disciple behind him had been cut into two by a ray of light.
