"Chirp chirp chirp chirp!"

Outside the Extreme North Icy Jade Mountain Range of Jade Prefecture, Daoist Master Qi Min reached out his hand towards a tree not far away. A snow-white bird the size of a palm shot out like lightning and landed in his palm, letting out a series of cries.

Qi Min frowned and thought to himself, "They went north, into the Coldjade mountain range?" Unfortunately, before the Coldjade mountain range, I didn't dare to pursue him. I don't know if he went deeper into the Coldjade mountain range, or if he leaped over the Coldjade mountain range and headed straight for Coldjade.

But since this person killed my Snow Wind Sword Sect's Successor Disciple, I'm sure he doesn't have the guts to go to the Liangzhou City. He probably entered the Liangyu Mountain Range, or else it would be difficult to find him.

Forget it, according to the sect's calculations, after a period of time, the Arctic Icecap could erupt with Aurora. I heard that the other sects in Liangzhou are not honest either, and may take this opportunity to secretly plot against our sect.

Do you really think that my Snow Wind Sword Sect is like the Heaven Shaking Sect of the Jade Province? Any one of the few sects can overthrow it, you're too naive, what alien cultivator are the great enemies of the cultivation world, returning to the sect this time will definitely urge the sect to give these dishonest sects a ruthless lesson, only by doing this will you let go of those unrealistic fantasies, and obediently listen to the instructions of my Snow Wind Sword Sect.

In a split-second, Daoist Master Qi Min's thoughts flashed like lightning. A cloud formed beneath his feet, and his figure disappeared into the clouds.

Yang Junshan kept moving, every step he took brought him dozens of feet away. Although he didn't fly, his speed was not much slower than flying.

More importantly, not long after they entered the Cold Jade Mountain Range, various kinds of miasma condensed within the ancient forests, and when they neared the ground, it was not obvious yet. If they were to fly at a low altitude, not only would their line of sight be blocked by the miasma, but the poison contained within the miasma would also hinder the cultivators.

This was also one of the most dangerous characteristics of the Coldjade mountain range. The deeper it was, the deeper it was, the denser the miasma became, causing the cultivators that entered the Coldjade mountain range to either fly in the air or travel on the ground. If one wanted to fly while enjoying the scenery of the Coldjade mountain range, then one would often lose their lives without them even realizing it.

With Yang Junshan's cultivation level, he naturally did not care about the dangers in the outer area of the Coldjade mountain range. He just needed to use the Earth Withdrawal Technique, and he had already rushed into the depths of the Coldjade mountain range ahead of the group of Martial Disciples.

This was the miasma in the depths of the Icy Jade Mountain Range. If a Martial Disciple came here, they would have to prepare a pill to ward off the miasma and poison. If it was any other cultivator, they would only need to release the True Essence Aura in their body, but they would also have to continuously consume the True Essence in their body.

To Yang Junshan, this level of miasma was of no help to him. He did not even need to release any Supreme Qi, he only needed to absorb the miasma into his body, and regardless of how strong the Nine Flying True Handle was, it could immediately remove the miasma. Yang Junshan's physique also had a strong resistance to miasma.

Back then, he had thought that when he was just a minor cultivator in the Mortal Realm, he was able to travel freely through the miasma of Qu Wushan. This was because the top-grade immortal essence that he had refined when he first started cultivating gave him a strong talent for resisting poisons.

"Whoosh!" A sharp sound came from the back of his head.

Yang Junshan lowered his head, and a fist-sized stone flew over his head and smashed into an ancient tree in front of him, directly smashing its bark into pieces. The entire surface of the tree had sunk three inches deep, and the stone had completely embedded itself into the tree trunk.

Yang Junshan came back to his senses and saw a monkey squatting on a tree trunk 200 feet away squeaking at him as if showing off, then it turned around and ran away.

Yang Junshan slightly frowned. His Spiritual Sense didn't notice that he was being followed by a monkey, so the miasma that pervaded the forest shouldn't be able to hinder the cultivators' Spiritual Awareness.

Seeing that the monkey jumped from the tree to the tree and was about to escape, Yang Junshan reached out his hand and the monkey felt like it was caught by an invisible hand and flew towards Yang Junshan.

The monkey was in the air clawing and squeaking. It rolled its tail, and actually tied a branch to it. With the pulling force, it twisted around the branch and got rid of Yang Junshan's pulling force, then flew to a tree on the side.

However, this monkey seemed to have realized how powerful Yang Junshan was. The moment he got onto the tree, he turned around and ran.

He didn't want to care about it anymore, so he turned around and was about to leave when he heard the monkey behind him growl. Suddenly, there were countless of monkeys squeaking in response, and the sound of the branches shaking was getting closer and closer. Obviously, this monkey had attracted more monkeys chasing after Yang Junshan.

Seeing that Yang Junshan was about to turn around and leave, the monkey immediately caught up to him again. While jumping on the tree branch, he turned his head back and shouted at the same time, as if he was directing the monkeys in the direction of the chase.

Yang Junshan noticed the change in the situation, so he stuck a stone between his fingers and flicked it. "Pop!" The moment the stone hit the monkey's head, the world spun and it fell from the tree, fainting.

At this moment, the troop of monkeys was already in sight behind them. Seeing that the monkeys leading the way didn't know whether they were alive or dead, the troop of monkeys immediately exploded and chased after them like ghosts crying and wolves howling. Countless stones, branches, and fruits came crashing towards them with great force from dozens of feet away.

Even Yang Junshan, who was a cultivator at the Mortal Realm, couldn't turn around and throw a spell at a group of monkeys. He had no choice but to dodge while escaping, while the monkeys behind him chased him with all the speed he could muster.

The angry monkeys chased after Yang Junshan for miles without stopping, but Yang Junshan, a dignified cultivator of the Rebirth Realm, was chased by a group of monkeys to such an extent, how could he show his face?

He suddenly turned around and took a few steps forward. His figure flashed in the forest for a while before disappearing.

The troop of monkeys was confused and didn't know where to go to chase after them. A few of the sturdy monkeys, who seemed to be the leaders of the group, even started to argue about it, and started to fight on the tree.

At this time, Yang Junshan had already circled behind the group of monkeys, and followed the direction in which the group of monkeys came from, even using the earth shrinking sacred art. From afar, it looked like a shadow shuttling through the forest.

There must be something in the place where they were living. He didn't know if there was the legendary Monkey Wine, which had always been very famous in the cultivation world. It was a stunt, but it was much more famous than the Seven Spirit Wine that Yang Junshan got from Hantian Peak.0

Of course, this was only a thought from Yang Junshan. What he was really looking forward to was finding a place where the monkeys could gather, and at the same time, a place that made him suspicious, which was the reason why his spiritual sense didn't sense it when he was followed by a monkey earlier.

At this moment, Yang Junshan had already returned to the place where he was attacked by the monkey. He spread out his spiritual sense instantly, covering nearly a hundred zhang in radius. Everything he sensed was exactly the same as his eyes.

While Yang Junshan was still confused, a frightened rabbit suddenly jumped out of the bushes about ten zhang away. Yang Junshan stared at the rabbit and suddenly realized something.

All living things were unknown to his Spiritual Sense. Originally, this forest should have been full of life, but in reality, aside from the plants, his Spiritual Sense could not detect a single living existence.

Yang Junshan thought for a while, then continued to head in the direction of the monkeys. The ancient trees in this direction were thicker, thicker, and quieter at the same time.

Climbing over a low mountain ridge, a valley appeared in front of his eyes. Looking at the scene in the valley, Yang Junshan couldn't help praising it.

The source of the heat should be a hot spring. There were ancient trees and vines on both sides of the valley, as well as flowers on the grass, and there were fruit trees on the hillside. The monkeys lived in the valley without worry, but at this time, most of the monkeys in the valley were old and weak.

However, what truly surprised Yang Junshan was that these monkeys had built some simple habitats in the valley. Although it looked simple and crude, at most, it was only sheltered from the wind and rain, but the reason behind this was worth Yang Junshan's investigation.

Could it be that someone once lived here, or perhaps a Demonic cultivator once trained in this area?

No matter the reason, it made Yang Junshan feel frightened. However, since they had come here, there was no reason for them to leave, not to mention there was something strange in the valley. It was too late to retreat now.

Yang Junshan directly charged into the valley. The troop of monkeys that were originally living in the valley immediately got alarmed and started shouting loudly. The young monkey was protected behind the old monkey, avoiding this uninvited guest from a distance.

Unlike the group of monkeys that chased after Yang Junshan earlier, the old monkeys in the valley seemed to have sensed the danger on Yang Junshan from the beginning. They all left with the little monkeys, even giving up on the valley.

These monkeys clearly didn't have any demonic aura on them, but they were extremely intelligent, especially those old monkeys. It was as if their intelligence had been awakened.

As soon as Yang Junshan entered the valley, he smelled the pungent smell of alcohol from the source of the stream. He was immediately startled, [Is there really such a legendary thing in the world?]

Warm spring water was flowing out from a steaming pool. A figure was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the pool, faintly discernible in the thick water vapor. At the same time, a faintly discernible sound landed on Yang Junshan's body, causing his face to change instantly.

Everyone had a monthly ticket in their hands. The monthly ticket ranking was getting more and more intense. It was only the second day of the month, but Sleeping Autumn had already fallen all the way to the end of the ranking.
