The cultivators’ faces were filled with shock, as they had not anticipated the mist to possess such formidable power.

They had only just stepped into it, when their minds had almost lost their composure.

Trembling, they fished out the Huazi, casually struck a flame to light it, and took two deep drags.

With a series of clouds being inhaled and exhaled, everyone’s expressions gradually relaxed, the frantic unease in their hearts melting away like ice and snow.

“This Huazi really packs a punch.”

At the same time, an indescribable feeling surged in their hearts, making everyone feel as if their internal organs were completely clear, their Spiritual Platform luminous, their thoughts purified, and an ancient, deep flavor echoing within their hearts.

Many of the daily puzzling symptoms that troubled the cultivators were resolved with ease, and their understanding of the Cultivation Techniques deepened, faint signs of a breakthrough looming.

“What treasure is this?”

“This Huazi actually led to my breakthrough!”

“What on earth is this Huazi? Just one piece, and I managed to practice the Nine Transformations of Heavenly Demon to the fourth level. I’m just one step away from the Core Formation Stage!”

“Brother Ruthless is too strong, casually handing out Heaven and Earth Treasures. This is a win!”

“Not just a win but a massive profit—fifty Lower Grade Spirit Stones for a chance at a breakthrough. If those cultivators who are reluctant to part with their Spirit Stones knew about this, they would probably be green with regret!”

The excitement of the hundreds of cultivators was evident, as this opportunity had solved the problem of passing the test and instantaneously their issue of being low in strength.

With the effect of this Huazi, once they thoroughly contemplated it later, they would undoubtedly be able to enter a more profound level.

Brother Ruthless, what a divine being!

Inside the carriage, over thirty cultivators from Ancient Moon City were also tear-stained; Boss Ye did not deceive them.

On the surface, Boss Ye seemed to be accumulating wealth, but in reality, he was considerate of them in every way. Knowing that their strength was inadequate, he specifically used the guise of passing the test to help them enhance their cultivation levels, taking their pride into account.

Such a good person indeed. Compared with him, Immortal Qin, Wang Ruoxian, and Xia Jian appeared to be somewhat selfish.

However, Li Xiaobai was not aware of the others’ thoughts; if he were, he would probably cough up blood—the people of this world sure have wild imaginations.

The truck rumbled on, and along the way, Li Xiaobai saw many cultivators struggling desperately.

These cultivators were very confident at first, but only after entering the dense fog did they realize how treacherous the world was.

The nameless flesh mounds themselves did not attack humans, but the rich, putrid stench they emitted was enough to drive people mad.

Upon inhaling this odor, even those cultivators who considered themselves to have profound cultivation at the Golden Core Stage felt an inexplicable irritation at heart, and some even thought they saw phantom images of their sworn enemies.

All were aware that the flesh mounds were influencing their minds. Not daring to be careless, they closed their eyes tightly and sat down cross-legged to resist the mind-disturbing force, managing to hold on for a short while.

But soon, this precarious balance was shattered.

Li Xiaobai driving the large truck roared through, the thunderous engine noise instantly shattering the cultivators’ hard-earned peacefulness.

Their minds in chaos, the energy within their bodies dangerously close to going out of control, many cultivators coughed up blood on the spot, furiously ready to curse out loud, but then abruptly stopped, stunned.

They saw a group of people following the large truck, leisurely walking while occasionally taking a drag of something in their hands, enjoying bouts of exhaling and inhaling clouds of smoke, their faces expressing extreme pleasure.

“Why are you not affected?” a cultivator asked.

“Naturally, it’s because of the treasure from Brother Ruthless. I must say, brothers, you lack foresight. The treasure from Brother Ruthless not only stabilizes the mind but also improves cultivation insight!”

The cultivators in the group laughed heartily, utterly refreshed in spirit, their actions proving that their choice was the correct one.

Watching the small troop slowly moving away, the many cultivators hidden in the mist suddenly realized, “Brother Ruthless, we are willing to pay Spirit Stones for your treasure!”

“Yes, I can offer double the price, please give me a chance, Brother Ruthless!”

“I’ll offer triple…”

Seeing the longing in the eyes of the surrounding cultivators, Li Xiaobai smiled faintly, “Liangchen is not a selfish person. Once the sect has settled down, I will open a store specifically to sell these treasures. At that time, you are all welcome to support it.”

Having said that, he stepped on the gas and sped away, leaving behind a crowd with bewildered faces, having missed their chance to enter the Holy Demon Sect.

In exchange for a mere fifty Lower Grade Spirit Stones, they had ruined their own futures.

Their minds were overwhelmed, and the aura of the Flesh Mountain invaded their senses, causing many cultivators to go wild and start attacking the cultivators next to them in a frenzy of biting.

In the sky, several streaks of light flashed by, and six figures descended upon the area.

“Old Man Feng is really looking for trouble. Why test our nature when things are fine? These days, who cares about cultivation of the heart? No, who is even decent these days?” complained the fat man, displeased.

“Sixth junior brother, this rescue mission was hard-earned by your senior sister. To swap us in, we’ve lost six disciples. Don’t slack off,” said the leading female cultivator indifferently.

“Hehe, I’m well aware of that. It’s just that among this last batch of disciples, it seems like we haven’t seen any trace of our little junior brother,” said the fat man, puzzled.

“The person on that steel mount does resemble our junior brother somewhat from the back…”

“Do you think our junior brother might have disguised himself just like us…”

“Let’s deal with junior brother’s matter later. The task at hand is more important!”

The six figures flashed and instantly appeared before the frenzied disciples. They formed hand signs and transported the many cultivators out of the thick fog.

Then, with practiced and smooth movements, they searched the bodies of the cultivators, taking away all of the Space Rings present.

“Has Old Man Feng arrived yet?”

“He should be here soon.”

“Wind’s up, let’s scram!”

The six figures twisted and instantly vanished from the spot.

A few breaths later, a streak of light descended, and the figure of Feng Qingyang appeared before the many unconscious cultivators, his expression changing several times.

“Damn it, it’s those six again causing trouble. Nearly a thousand Space Rings, this old man won’t take the blame, I need to leave quickly!”

With a twist, he too disappeared from the spot.

At the same time, deep in the mist, Qin Lan let out a muffled grunt and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The maid beside her quickly took out some Healing Medicine.

Qin Lan was originally using the aura of the Flesh Mountain to temper her Primordial Spirit, hoping to take that step as soon as possible. For this reason, she had not used any bit of her cultivation level and was completely exposed to the ravaging aura of the Flesh Mountain.

Unexpectedly, the roaring thunder of Li Xiaobai’s vehicle passed by her, cracking the ground and shaking the earth, almost causing her to lose her mind and fall into a demonic state.

The small troop of cultivators running behind kept looking back every three steps. Even Immortal Qin had stumbled—better to stick with Brother Ruthless. Those fifty Lower Grade Spirit Stones were well spent!

“He definitely did it on purpose, aiming to disturb the lady’s spiritual practice!” The maid was very angry.

“Let’s keep this in mind for now. We’ll get even sooner or later…”
