"Let's go, Xiaoyan."
Qin Yang lightly patted the Fire Flame Lion and said.
The Fire Flame Lion surged with power in its four legs, its fiery red mane dancing as it carried Qin Yang and Bi Luoyue, its figure like the wind, rushing towards the Fire Sparrow Mountains.
"Elder Han, I must have her!"
Watching Qin Yang and Bi Luoyue gradually disappear from sight, Ximen Feihua folded his ancient fan with a solemn expression.
"That girl's talent is indeed remarkable. If Young Master Feihua could be with her, practicing that twin cultivation technique, I'm sure the Patriarch would be supportive."
Elder Han nodded and said.
The Fire Flame Lion, like a rushing flame, quickly left Luocheng, with the Fire Sparrow Mountains already in sight.
Up ahead was a stretch of continuous peaks, the trees mostly in shades of red and yellow, but instead of fading, they emitted a vibrant energy.
The trees in the mountains were twice as tall as similar trees elsewhere, branches lush and dense, with large red and yellow leaves reflecting the sunlight.
"This soil contains abundant fire elements, and the fire spiritual energy in the air here is also much higher than outside."
Qin Yang dismounted the Fire Flame Lion, touching the yellow soil on the ground, his eyes slightly narrowing.
"It seems the legend of the Vermilion Bird Feather might be real after all."
A glint flashed in Qin Yang's eyes; he had only speculated before, but now he was more convinced.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, refining even a scale or claw from a Divine Beast could greatly benefit a cultivator, like the Cyan Dragon Scale, Black Tortoise Shell, Eye of the Candle Dragon, all treasures worth fighting for.
Just one Vermilion Bird Feather could benefit this land for thousands of years, showing its extraordinary power.
"I wonder if the Vermilion Bird Feather has dissipated."
Qin Yang muttered, becoming even more intrigued by the Fire Sparrow Mountains, thinking that if the Vermilion Bird Feather hadn't dissipated, refining it would greatly enhance his power.
"Let's go."
Qin Yang mounted the Fire Flame Lion again.
The Fire Flame Lion treaded over the red and yellow fallen leaves in the forest, its speed not too fast.
The sun gradually set in the west, casting a golden light over everything, beautifully complementing the red and yellow trees, a sight breathtaking and spectacular.
In a lively forest like flames, two figures stood among the dense branches of a tall tree towering over ten zhang high.
One was bare-chested, muscular and robust, holding two black giant axes, a deep scar marking his rugged face and a fierce look on display.
Beside him stood a lean figure, holding a red copper fish spear, his small eyes glinting with crafty and cold light.
"Big brother, that beast must be nearby. As soon as we pick the Fire Cloud Reishi, it will surely come out and attack us."
The giant axe man said in a buzzing voice.
"Hmm, let's wait for now. The Golden Silk Net is already set. If necessary, you go pick the Fire Cloud Reishi, while I and a few brothers..."
At this point, the thin man with the red spear suddenly paused, his eyes fixed through the gaps in the dense leaves, looking into the distance.
"Big brother, what's the matter?"
Seeing the thin man with the red spear suddenly stop speaking, the giant axe man asked in confusion.
"Shh! Quiet, someone is coming..."
The thin man with the red spear's eyes flashed with cold light as he whispered.
In the forest where red and yellow leaves were falling, the Fire Flame Lion moved through, with Qin Yang and Bi Luoyue seated on its back.
"Tsk tsk, there really isn't a shortage of fire attribute spirit medicine here."
Qin Yang looked at the few herbs in his hand, a slight smile on his face.
"Three Red Blood Grass, two Meridian Opening Grass."
Qin Yang found this many herbs without deliberately searching as he came along.
Red Blood Grass can be refined into Red Blood Pill to replenish qi and blood, while Meridian Opening Grass can be made into Meridian Opening Pill to clear meridians. These fire attribute spirit grass are not particularly precious, but they are quite decent.
During this time, Qin Yang also encountered other ancient martial artists. In the Fire Sparrow Mountains, it's common for ancient martial artists to plunder each other, but those martial artists gave up on targeting Qin Yang and Bi Luoyue when they saw them riding a middle-stage Yellow Tier Fire Flame Lion.
"Hmm, there seems to be a Fire Cloud Reishi over there?!"
Qin Yang's eyes suddenly focused, a hint of joy passing over his face.
Under a tall tree, the red and yellow fallen leaves covered the ground, and at the root of the tree lay a reishi-shaped herb, its cap showing a fire-red cloud pattern.
"The value of a Fire Cloud Reishi is significant, often used in refining many fire attribute elixirs."
Qin Yang was delighted, dismounting from the Fire Flame Lion and heading towards the Fire Cloud Reishi.
In the tree above, among the dense branches, the giant axe man and the thin man with the red spear gazed down without blinking.
"Big brother, that kid is going to pick the Fire Cloud Reishi now."
The giant axe man said softly.
"Humph, perfect, we'll use them as bait to lure out the beast, and we'll gain the benefit like a fisherman."
The thin man with the red spear's eyes flashed with crafty and cold light as he spoke.
Qin Yang stepped to the tree base, flipping his palm as the White Jade Flying Saber appeared in his hand. Just as he was about to dig out the Fire Cloud Reishi, his brows furrowed.
Boom!
Suddenly, the ground shook, and a large hole broke open on the leaf-covered ground. A large demonic creature burrowed out, its cold poisonous fangs aiming straight at Qin Yang's back.
"Qin Yang, look out!"
On the Fire Flame Lion's back, Bi Luoyue's pretty face changed, and she gracefully floated down.
"Jade Water Technique, Shield!"
Sensing the wind coming at his back, Qin Yang formed a hand seal, lightly shouting as a cyan water-patterned light shield enveloped him.
Boom!
The cold poisonous fangs collided with the water-patterned light shield. The immense force transmitted through it, causing Qin Yang's figure to be thrown back.
In mid-air, Qin Yang adjusted his posture, tapping his toes on the ground to stabilize himself.
"Are you alright?"
Bi Luoyue stood beside Qin Yang, asking with concern.
Qin Yang shook his head, lifting his head to look at the demonic creature before him.
It was a large serpent, its body covered with red scales marked with earthy traces, its triangular eyes coldly staring at Qin Yang and Bi Luoyue, four sharp poisonous fangs clearly visible.
"This is... a Poisonous Fire Earth-drilling Snake?"
Qin Yang's brow arched, recognizing the Poisonous Fire Earth-drilling Snake with both fire and earth attributes. The snake before them was fully demonized and could indeed be called a demon beast.
In many places where spirit medicine existed, demon beasts guarded them. Before they developed intelligence, demon beasts would break through or evolve by consuming spirit medicine.
Therefore, some demon beasts, once they discovered certain valuable spirit medicine, would either consume it directly or guard it until a crucial moment for evolving, not allowing other creatures to approach.
Boom!
The Poisonous Fire Earth-drilling Snake opened its giant mouth, spitting a jet of crimson black flames toward Qin Yang and Bi Luoyue.
