"Big Brother Zhuo!
Don't worry, we'll definitely cultivate well! "
Xiqiang, Yang Zuo, and Yuhong hurriedly nodded in agreement, but a trace of reluctance arose in their hearts.
For some reason, they kept having a feeling that this trip to the divine mountain would probably be the last time they would see Zhuowen.
Two hours later, under the lead of City Lord Gong Jinghuan, the Mountain Protectors led the sacrificial team out of the City Lord's Estate and arrived outside the city gates.
"Brother Zhuo!
This trip is fraught with danger, so you must be extremely careful! "
Gong Jinghuan stood outside the city gates and cupped his hands towards Zhuowen as he bowed.
"Don't worry, City Lord Gong, I'll naturally be careful!"
Zhuowen smiled faintly.
Gong Jinghuan was rather relieved when he heard this. After all, Zhuowen's strength was obvious, so it shouldn't be too big of a problem to safely escort the team into the divine mountain.
At the same time, the other Mountain Protectors bid farewell to their friends and family.
Before long, Zhuowen led the team out of Yin Yang City and headed towards the depths of the Hundred Beasts Forest.
Roar! Roar!
Roar! Not long after the team entered the Hundred Beasts Forest, the terrifying and shrill roars of beasts rose and fell one after another.
The dozen Mountain Protectors led by Zhuowen were naturally calm and composed, but the young boys and girls were so frightened that their faces turned ghastly pale, their bodies trembled, and their eyes were filled with terror.
Zhuowen took out the jade slip and carefully looked through the route recorded in the jade slip, then led the team forward. He knew that the route recorded in the jade slip was the painstaking effort of the ancestors of Yin Yang City. After countless people had died, they finally explored such a relatively safe route to the divine mountain.
The sky gradually darkened.
Pitch black enveloped the entire Hundred Beasts Forest, causing the entire forest to be covered in a layer of terrifying shadow.
Zhuowen's team had already advanced one-third of the way, and they hadn't encountered any obstacles along the way.
"Set up camp!
Patrol the periphery. Once your Divine Consciousness discovers anything unusual, report it immediately! "
With Zhuowen's order, the troops immediately stopped and began to set up camp. The soldiers were deployed by Zhuowen in an orderly manner.
The dozen or so Mountain Protectors who followed Zhuowen secretly nodded their heads when they saw how well Zhuowen deployed the troops. They were even more convinced of Zhuowen's abilities.
Actually, when one's cultivation reached Zhuowen's level, they didn't need to rest at all. Naturally, they could advance through the night.
However, Zhuowen was not tired. Instead, he was afraid of the Hundred Beasts Forest.
He had stayed in the Hundred Beasts Forest for a period of time and knew that the Hundred Beasts Forest was much more terrifying at night than during the day. The number of strange beasts that came out to hunt for food was also much more terrifying.
If they were to travel through the night, it would undoubtedly increase the danger. Zhuowen was not in such a hurry, and there was no need to risk everyone's lives.
Zhuowen leaped up and landed at the edge of the tent. He took out a formation disk and planned to lay down a large array, which attracted the attention of the mountain protectors.
One of them, a burly middle-aged man, walked up and asked curiously, "Master Zhuo!
Are you setting up a formation? "
"Yes!
The Hundred Beasts Forest is more dangerous than we thought. It's not safe to rely on people to patrol, so I set up an illusory array near the tent to cover our tracks. "
Zhuowen said calmly.
"Master Mu!
You're so powerful. You even know how to set up a divine array! "
The burly middle-aged man's eyes lit up and he clicked his tongue in amazement.
The other Mountain Protectors were also in awe of Zhuowen.
After setting up the illusory array, Zhuowen sent the burly man and the Mountain Protectors away. He then returned to his tent and sat cross-legged to meditate.
He didn't cultivate. Instead, he was silently pondering.
The Imperial Astronomer had said that only by climbing to the top of the Sacred Mountain would he be able to obtain the benefits of the Mystery Land and leave the Mystery Land smoothly.
Zhuowen had a hunch that if he could obtain the benefits of the Mystery Land, he should be able to break through the shackles of All Skills to One in a short time and reach the Archean God Realm in one go.
At that time, he would be able to come into contact with the true essence of the Primordial Hong Tree's power.
Once he obtained the Primordial Hong Tree's Origin, Zhuowen believed that his strength would undergo a qualitative transformation. At that time, he might not only possess the power to resist the Immeasurable Calamity, but also the power to resist the Primordial Divine Demon.
"What will the future hold?
I have to take it one step at a time. First, I have to break through the realm and leave the Mystery Land! "
Zhuowen muttered to himself and slowly closed his eyes.
The night passed without a word.
With the patrol and the illusory array set up by Zhuowen, the team passed the night quite quietly.
As expected, some of the patrol members were unlucky enough to encounter the Exotic Beasts. The lucky ones managed to escape, while the unlucky ones died in the hands of the Exotic Beasts.
"Let's move on!"
After they were ready to set off, Zhuo Wen gave the order and led the team towards the Divine Mountain.
The deeper they went into the Hundred Beasts Forest, the more nervous Zhuowen became.
When he first entered the Hundred Beasts Forest, he also wanted to enter the Sacred Mountain. However, the deeper he went into the forest, the more Exotic Beasts there were. Moreover, they seemed to know his position in advance and attacked him crazily.
If he had encountered so many terrifying exotic beasts like before, he would naturally be able to escape easily. However, the team he was leading would most likely be wiped out.
However, to Zhuowen's relief, as they continued to go deeper into the Hundred Beasts Forest, the team did not encounter any danger or Exotic Beasts.
"It seems that I really have to choose the right route to enter the Sacred Mountain!"
Zhuowen secretly sighed. He knew very well that the reason why he could enter the depths of the Hundred Beasts Forest so smoothly this time was because of the route recorded in the jade slip given to him by Gong Jinghuan.
If he had entered the Hundred Beasts Forest carelessly like last time, he would have been attacked by many Exotic Beasts. In the end, he could only flee in panic, let alone enter the Sacred Mountain.
When the team completely walked out of the Hundred Beasts Forest, Zhuowen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At the foot of the mountain, between the Hundred Beasts Forest and the Sacred Mountain, there was a rather wide grassland. At the end of the grassland was the foot of the Sacred Mountain, where iron trees with a metallic luster grew.
"We have finally left the Hundred Beasts Forest. Next, we just have to pass through this grassland and we will reach the foot of the Sacred Mountain!"
Everyone in the team breathed a sigh of relief. The biggest obstacle was the Hundred Beasts Forest. As long as they passed through the Hundred Beasts Forest, the rest of the journey would be easier.
Zhuowen raised his head to look at the majestic and huge Sacred Mountain in front of him. At a glance, he could not see the top of the mountain.
?
At the mountainside of the Sacred Mountain, there was a dense sea of clouds lingering. Moreover, the sea of clouds was not white. Instead, it was colorful and flashing with all kinds of flowing lights. It looked gorgeous and varied.
"Eh?
There are several teams over there! "
Zhuowen looked into the distance and was surprised to find that on the grassland dozens of miles away from them, there were several teams scattered and walking towards the foot of the Sacred Mountain.
These teams also brought many young boys and girls as well as many sacrificial offerings.
"It's the teams from other cities!
They are also here to offer sacrifices to the Sacred Mountain! "
In the team, the burly middle-aged man explained with a smile.
