  After the ancestral worship ceremony, according to the customs, the Chu Clan would hold a banquet and a group of people would drink and chat, not leaving until they were drunk.

  Chu Yun was completely uninterested in this. He took a horse and drove out of the clan on his own.

  The ten-kilometer journey passed in a flash. Not long after they left the city, they saw the Formless Mountain in the distance.

  At the foot of the mountain, countless rundown villages looked desolate and desolate. The air was filled with the faint smell of blood.

  Quite a few guards sat there, looking exhausted. The swords in their hands were still dripping with warm blood.

  Beside them were seven to eight ferocious demonic beasts. Clearly, a bloody battle had just occurred here.

  "F * ck, these monsters are crazy."

  "A few more, and we really won't be able to hold them off."

  "There's nothing we can do. We'll report it to the clan later and ask for reinforcements."

  Chu Yun tied his horse and walked forward.

  "Sigh, the mountain is sealed. You are not allowed to enter or leave here as you wish!"

  One of the guards noticed Chu Yun and immediately warned him.

  "I need to go in and check the reason behind the demon beast rebellion at Formless Mountain."

  Chu Yun said indifferently.

  "Young … Young Master? "

  The guards quivered and quickly stood up.

  They were very respectful to Chu Yun.

  "You have done well, but there is no need to seal the mountain. The ancestral worship ceremony has ended, and the banquet will begin soon. Go back and eat and drink! "

  Chu Yun waved his hand.

  "Thank you … "Thank you, Young Lord!"

  These guards' faces were full of gratitude. If it wasn't for their responsibilities, who would be willing to stand guard at the foot of the mountain and resist the demon beasts' attacks?

  "Ao! Ao! Ao!"

  "Wuwuwu!"

  "Roar!"

  Just as he entered the mountains, Chu Yun heard beast roars coming from all directions.

  From the sound of it, these demon beasts seemed to have met some sort of natural enemy.

  This was a little strange. The demon beasts of Formless Mountain were at most at the Qi Transformation stage. Even if they were powerful, it would not have caused any riots in the demon beasts of the mountain.

  Moreover, the Mystical Mountain was very big. The Qi Transformation Stage beasts each had their own area of influence, so even if there was a large scale conflict, it would not affect the other beasts.

  But from the looks of it, the entire Formless Mountain was in chaos!

  Chu Yun hurried through the mountains, but was unable to find anything outside. If he wanted to investigate thoroughly, he would have to enter the depths of the mountain range.

  "Wuwuwu."

  A series of deep howls sounded out, and in the next second, a huge wild wolf jumped out of the bushes in front of them.

  Chu Yun didn't even bother to look at it, as he raised his hand and punched the wild wolf's jaw.

  A seemingly light punch actually contained a terrifying amount of energy. In the blink of an eye, everything in the wolf's skull was shattered.

  That wild wolf didn't make a sound as it flopped to the ground.

  A level five Qi Disciple demonic beast could simply be killed witaise of a hand!

  After walking forward for less than a hundred meters, the sound of something whistling through the air could be heard.

  Chu Yun laughed indifferently, and very easily brushed past it, then with a flick of his finger, he shot out a strand of Spirit Qi, witfft sound, it pierced through a bird on the tree branch.

  The name of this bird was the Frigid Winged Bird, and it could be considered a rather difficult demon beast to deal with.

  It could shoot out feathers from its body like arrows. Not only was it fast, but it was also very powerful.

  The crux of the matter was that this Frigid Winged Bird was extremely small, only the size of an adult's palm. If you hid amongst the trees and launched a sneak attack, you probably wouldn't even know where it was.

  Following that, Chu Yun ran into many more beasts, and without exception, they were all killed by his hand.

  After killing a lot, Chu Yun also noticed that something was amiss. The beasts of the Formless Mountain were obviously more violent than usual, some of the more gentle beasts were also enraged, and started massacring everywhere.

  The most important point was that deep within the pupils of these demon beasts, there warace of fear that was difficult to detect.

  What were they afraid of?

  Was the thing that they were afraid of the culprit that caused the rebellion of the Formless Mountain demon beasts?

  Chapter 67 - Millennium Blood Dragon Ginseng

  Within the Formless Mountain, a cloth-clothed elder was walking shoulder to shoulder with a young lady.

  "Teacher, this Formless Mountain is so big, how am I supposed to find a thousand-year-old Blood Dragon Ginseng?"

  The girl pouted and stomped her feet in a spoiled manner, looking very cute and mischievous.

  "Humph, then who can you blame? Who had lost the thousand-year Blood Dragon Ginseng? Now you know it's troublesome? "

  The old man harrumphed. He seemed to be scolding him, burace of love still flashed in the depths of his eyes.

  "Teacher, I know you're the best." Teacher, I know you're the best. I promise I won't lose it next time! I really don't want to go around looking for it anymore. It's too tiring! "

  The young girl was weird and very adorable.

  "It's useless even if you beg me. We have plenty of time, we won't rest until we find one."

  The old man intentionally ignored her. No matter how coquettish the young girl was, it was useless.

  The girl gave an unhappy snort and pouted, "I don't care. I don't believe it. Don't tell me I can't find a thousand-year-old Blood Dragon Ginseng myself!"

  The girl wrinkled her nose and began to trace the smell in the air.

  The old man smiled and followed behind him.

  "Yi, the thousand-year-old Blood Dragon Ginseng has finally stopped running. If so, then the distance should be very close!"

  The young girl's beautiful eyes shone, and she couldn't help but laugh as she increased her speed.

  Her movement techniques were very mysterious. Her steps were illusory, and although it seemed as if each step she took wasn't very far, her speed was actually very fast. She was able to leave behind a series of afterimages in the air.

  … ….

  "Boom!"

  A palm print pressed down from the sky, bringing with it the power to sweep through the world. It directly turned the Qi Condensation demonic beast into a meat patty.

  The ground shook violently. Several thick trees nearby were shattered into pieces as they floated down.

  Chu Yun laughed and retracted his hand.

  He had just developed a new battle technique and had to use it frequently in order to increase his proficiency.

  Right now, Chu Yun's control over the Hand of the Flipping Cloud could be said to be superb.

  That palm attack he had exchanged blows with Chu Zhoushan could be considered to be Chu Yun's full strength. For it to actually be able to shake Chu Zhoushan, who was only at the eighth level of Qi Cultivating Stage, it was due to the powerful momentum of the Hand of the Flipping Cloud!

  As long as his aura was strong enough, Chu Yun was not afraid of any opponents!

  The violent shockwave spread out in all directions with this person as the center.

  This was akin to poking a hornet's nest. Within a radius of several kilometers, demon beast roars could be heard one after another.

  Soon after, those demon beasts madly rushed over from every direction.

  "F * ck, is it that exaggerated?"

  Chu Yun stood at his original position, and could only feel his body shak
ing non-stop. How many beasts would it take to create such power?

  In the blink of an eye, Chu Yun was surrounded by beasts.

  A hundred demon beasts surrounded this area, making it so that not even a drop of water could trickle through.

  The leaves rustled in the cold wind, and the atmosphere seemed frozen.

  The five Qi Transformation stage beasts that were leading the group lowered their heads and panted. Their eyes flickered with a sinister light, as if they wanted to tear Chu Yun to shreds. However, fear was mixed within the depths of their eyes. No one knew why.

  Chu Yun did not run, it was not that he could not run, but he did not want to run.

  "Good job."

  Chu Yun laughed, and extended his hand out, releasing a black blade that was filled with killing intent, which appeared in his hand.

  Ever since he had learnt the Berserk Dragon Blade Art, he had never shown it in actual combat.

  Previously, in Tian Dao Sect, when there were too many people around, Chu Yun did not dare to use it because he was afraid of being exposed. Now, in this Traceless Mountain, facing hundreds of demon beasts, he could finally act without fear!

  The moment the heavenly blade was unleashed, a boundless killing intent surged. Those demonic beasts all retreated in unison, and from their mouths came a shocking low roar. They were extremely uneasy.

  The leader of the Qi Condensation demonic beasts impatiently let out a cry, as if ordering a group of beasts.

  Suddenly, all the beasts roared in unison, their roars shaking the heavens.

  A hundred demonic beasts pounced over at the same time, stomping on the ground until it rumbled. What sort of feeling was that? It was likeavy mountain pressing down on one's face, causing one to be unable to even breathe!

  "All of you can be my targets!"

  Chu Yun flicked his wrist, and the heavenly blade trembled, as if it had gained consciousness.

  After that, he slashed out with his saber. A simple and unadorned saber strike caused a ripple in the air as it cleanly beheaded a demonic beast.

  "Pfft!"

  Blood sprayed out as one of the demonic beasts that was running at the front fell to the ground.

  However, this could not stop the torrent of beasts!

  Chu Yun activated the Spirit Qi in his body and released a sharp blade light that sliced the few Spirit Beasts in front of him into pieces. Then, he seemed to feel that it was not enough and actually rammed head-on into the herd of beasts, causing several ten thousand jin beasts to be sent flying!

  His eyes flickered with a sharp light as the Berserk Dragon Blade Art that he was proficient in flashed through his mind.

  Vaguely, the spirit energy around Chu Yun formed the shape of a dragon, crazily attacking at everything.

  Blood rained down!

  No demonic beast could withstand Chu Yun's one slash. The sharpness of the heavenly blade coupled with the power of the Berserk Dragon Blade Art, allowed Chu Yun to kill gods and buddhas alike!

  His eyes were indifferent and incomparably deep. It didn't contain the slightest bit of emotion, making people feel a deep sense of despair!

  Even the five Qi Transformation Stage demon beasts were unable to withstand the power of Chu Yun's blade technique and were sliced into pieces in the blink of an eye!

  In less than an incense's time, the hundred demon beasts surrounding Chu Yun were all killed!

  Chu Yun exhaled a breath of air as he stood still.

  As far as the eye could see, there were corpses of demon beasts everywhere, and warm blood dyed the ground red.

  This battle had been extremely thrilling.

  It wasn't because they were fighting very happily, but because they were able to unleash the Berserk Dragon Blade Art without restraint.

  "There will be a day when I will openly display this Berserk Dragon Blade Art to the world!"

  Chu Yun swore to himself in his heart.

  This Berserk Dragon Blade Art waop-grade martial skill. Before he had the power to protect himself, he could not easily reveal it.

  "Ahh, these thousand years Blood Dragon Ginseng are mine. What do you mean by that?"

  Just as he was about to leave, a bell-like voice sounded from the front, clearly filled with anger.

  Curious, Chu Yun quickly walked forward.

  "Hahahaha, if you say it's yours, then it's yours? Have you written your name on the thousand-year Blood Dragon Ginseng? Why don't you just call it and see if it agrees? "

  A young man tightly held onto a struggling blood-red ginseng as he laughed loudly.

  Standing beside him were two people, both of whom had extraordinary strength.

  Opposite the three of them was an old man and a young man.

  The old man was wearing cloth clothes and did not have a strong aura. He was probably only at the 6th or 7th level of the Mortal Realm.

  The young girl's face was slightly red, and her beautiful eyes were filled with anger. Seeing the thousand-year Blood Dragon Ginseng in her hands, she was extremely anxious.

  "Kid, you must be reasonable. The thousand-year Blood Dragon Ginseng is indeed ours. We were just passing by when it accidentally ran away. We searched hard all the way until we came to the Formless Mountain. "

  The old man chuckled, as if trying to reason with him.

  "Are you crazy?" This wahousand year old Blood Dragon Ginseng, an extremely precious thousand year old spiritual herb! It fell into our hands and was caught red-handed by me. That's ours! "

  The young man sneered in disdain.

  "The Thousand Year Old Blood Dragon Ginseng has a master, and is very important to us. Since we were captured by you, we won't take it away for nothing. How about this, how about we make a deal? I'll give you some medicinal pills as compensation … "

  The old man wasn't angered. He continued to smile merrily.

  "Zi Ming, is there something wrong with this old man's head?"

  The other youth burst out in laughter.

  "I think he's old and muddled!"

  The young man called "Zi Ming" smiled evilly as his gaze swept over the young girl's body. He couldn't help but lick his lips: "How about this, old man. You said you want to make a deal, that's fine. Give this little girl to play with, and make us happy. I will consider returning the thousand year blood ginseng to you! "

  "How dare you!" "How dare you!"

  The young girl's face was filled with anger as she clenched her teeth.

  It was only now that Chu Yun realized that the young man holding the thousand year old Blood Dragon Ginseng was none other than the Wu Ziming who had tried to kill him multiple times!

  This was really a narrow path for enemies. Who would have thought that they would meet each other on the Formless Mountain!

  "What, you want to consider it?"

  Wu Ziming turned his head and looked at the two of them. In this deep forest, even if they did do something, no one would know.

  This young girl was so pretty and charming, and her entire body emitted a noble aura. It was expected that her background was extraordinary, so she definitely belonged to some noble clan's young miss. If she could get her hands on him, wouldn't that be an amazing feat?

  "I'll consider your grandpa!"

  Chu Yun sneered, without any hesitation he rushed out from his hiding spot, his heavenly blade sliced through the void, striking towards Wu Ziming's head!

  In Tian Dao Sect, Chu Yun had given Tang Haoran face, and did not kill Wu Ziming.

  But if he met her outside, what reason would there be for him to stay?

  This Wu Ziming carried deep hatred in his heart and was incomparably resentful. He was likibernating poisonous snake, who knows when it would bite him.

  Wu Ziming was shocked, he never thought that someone else would appear here.

  "Chu Yun, it's you!"

  Wu Ziming's pupils violently contracted as he consecutively retreated a few steps back.

  "I won't kill you in the Tian Dao Sect, but if you meet me here,
consider yourself unlucky!"

  Chu Yun's blade technique was sharp and violent. Perhaps because he was too excited, he actually forgot there was an outsider present and couldn't help but release the Berserk Dragon Blade Art.

  "Chi!"

  Wu Ziming anxiously reached out his hand to block, and his entire arm was chopped off.

  The other two panicked as well, flustered as they took out their weapons and slashed at Chu Yun's back.

  "Ding!"

  Two chimes sounded as the two blades struck each other. Surprisingly, not even a single strand of hair was injured.

  Chu Yun sneered and turned his head, "Did you have a good time chopping it? If you are happy, I can stand here and let you guys chop me up a few more times! "

  The two youths turned pale with fright, nearly collapsing on the spot.

  "Chu Yun, wait, wait! I'm willing to apologize to you, I don't want to die! Please spare me! "

  Wu Ziming was fully aware of the difference between him and Chu Yun. He sat on the ground, paralyzed, and actually forgot to retaliate.

  Chu Yun's heart was as hard as iron, the blade in his hand was raised, the blade qi was sharp, and cut off Wu Ziming's head.

  Chapter 68 - Grand Xia's Martial House Master?

  "Run!"

  The current Chu Yun's entire body was filled with killing intent, like a god of death, scaring the two young men, making them pee their pants.

  Chu Yun turned around and slashed out his blade qi. The two people who escaped were both dead.

  "Whew."

  Chu Yun let out a light breath and kept his blade.

  Meeting Wu Ziming by chance did not cause any waves in his heart. So what if he killed such a small fry like this, it was not worth thinking about.

  The young lady immediately ran over and pulled the thousand-year Blood Dragon Ginseng out of Wu Ziming's arms. She then patted it off and pouted unhappily: "Can't you be more careful, you've dirtied my thousand-year Blood Dragon Ginseng."

  "Sorry, I was too excited and didn't notice."

  Chu Yun suddenly remembered that there were two other people beside him.

  The old man stood on the spot, a look of shock in his eyes, and his expression slowly turned grave.

  Seeing that Chu Yun was about to turn and leave, the old man immediately took a step forward, and said excitedly: "Young Master, please wait!"
