Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, a month had gone by.

During this month, the majority of the force led by Bull Demon had been significantly reduced.

Now, there were only eighteen Azure Wolves and seven Mutant Wild Boars left, as well as Bull Demon, Golden Monkey, and others.

Significantly, the eighteen Azure Wolves and seven Mutant Wild Boars, which had been engaged in continuous battles throughout the month, underwent a remarkable transformation in their strengths; five of them had even advanced, including three Azure Wolves and two Mutant Wild Boars. 

Combined with Bull Demon, Golden Monkey, and other Transcendents, more than half of the team, which consisted of over twenty individuals, had become Transcendents.

Once could easily imagine what this kind formidable battle force signified.

They would kill anything in their path, may that be God or Devil.

Even the overlords of the snowfield fled in helter-skelter when they encountered Bull Demon and the others.

More impressively, even a Tier-2 Transcendent, Polar Bear was no match for them.

However, this fight with the Polar Bear had taken a toll on Bull Demon, Honey Badger, and the rest.

After all, a Tier-2 Transcendent was absolutely not a joke. Had it not been for Bull Demon’s bizarre Gravity Field, or the intervention of the Mammoth – Tundra, and Tyrannotitan, these two atavistic behemoths, they might have been annihilated.

One noteworthy development was that the Tyrannotitan had also become a Transcendent. He had now grown to a height of over 30 meters, and with his ferocious appearance, he appeared quite intimidating from a distance. After all, he originally belonged to the Cretaceous period. His familiar yet strange and terrifying figure would definitely be a shock to the Humans.

“It’s about time to head back,” squinting his eyes, Bull Demon shook his head and stated in a heavy voice.

“Yes.” The Mammoth, Tundra, who too had a bit of calm temperament, nodded in agreement.

However, after a moment, the Tundra added, as if something had crossed its mind, “Second Brother, what should we do about that Polar Bear?”

Five days ago, they ran into the Polar Bear, the Tier-2 Transcendent.

The Polar Bear had the power to freeze the earth and shake the ground with a single step Its terrifying strength had left a strong impression on Tundra, who couldn’t forget its terrifying strength.

Fortunately, despite their dwindling numbers, their Tier-1 Transcendents were in sufficient numbers. numerous. Additionally, they had Bull Demon, Golden Monkey, and other elite Transcendents, which allowed them to take on the Polar Bear and even injure it.

For the past few days, Bull Demon’s group had remained in the depths of the snowfields attempting to locate the Polar Bear’s lair.

And luckily, they managed to locate it.

Only, as they looked toward an island situated in the middle of the ocean, a wry smile appeared on the Tundra’s face.

Much to everyone’s surprise, the Polar Bear’s lair was located across the sea.

*Ha* Bull Demon heaved a sigh as an expression of helplessness blanketed his face. He then turned to White Snake, who appeared as if she had been carved straight from jade and was entirely covered in ice, and asked once again, “Little Sister, are you really sure about this?”

“Absolutely,” White Snake nodded her affirmation. She gazed at the island not far away, and her eyes glistened with an indescribable gleam. After a moment, she spoke, “Even if it’s several kilometers apart, I can still feel the dense Ice-Attribute Spiritual Energy. If my guess is correct, there should be an Ice-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine deep within that island.”

“Ice-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine…” Bull Demon murmured quietly, his eyes shining.

Spirit Stone Mines were one of the most crucial resources of the Era of Transcendence. Moreover, Yu Zi Yu had emphasized the importance of Spirit Stone Mine more than once.

Thinking about this, Bull Demon reaffirmed, “We’ll return and recuperate first for a few days, and then ask Old Ninth to join us.”

“Old Ninth…” Many of the Mutant beasts were slightly confused.

Most Mutant beasts knew little about Old Ninth, the Panda, Brewmaster.

Apart from Bull Demon, Golden Monkey, and a few others, other Mutant Beasts like the Mammoth and Tyrannotitan, their understanding of Old Ninth was limited to his fondness for sleeping and drinking.

Now, as if sensing the confusion of the Mutant beasts, Bull Demon smiled and explained, “Don’t worry, if Old Ninth takes action, we’ll certainly capture this Ice-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine.”

On this point, Bull Demon was unwavering in his belief.

[While both of them are Tier-2 Transcendents, Old Ninth is far stronger than the Polar Bear. The Polar Bear’s maximum Spiritual Energy is only around 200,000, while Old Ninth’s Spiritual Energy is in the range of 500,000. Just in terms of Spiritual Energy, Old Ninth already has an edge, not to mention other things. Moreover…]

Feeling the increasingly abundant Spiritual Energy within himself, Bull Demon realized he was on the verge of a breakthrough. If everything went according to plan, when he returned to the Misty Mountains, he would have to prepare for his breakthrough. By then, with two Tier-2 Transcendents, their chances of capturing the Polar Bear would significantly increase.

Thinking of this, Bull Demon turned around and stated, “Let’s go. In three days, we will cross the snowfields and return to the Misty Mountains.”

Having said so, his Spiritual Energy surged as he rushed toward the horizon.

Seeing this, the Mutant Beasts also nodded slightly before following Bull Demon.

From the distance, their team looked like a sharp sword, cutting across more than half of the snowfield.

This was the current Northern Territories hunting team.

Although they were only hunting on the outskirts of the Northern Territories in the snowfield, their formidable strength was unquestionable.

…

Meanwhile, at the peak of the Himalayan Mountains…

*Boom…

Blazing flames dyed most of the sky in a fiery red color.

Gazing upward, even with the veil of dense mist, many Mutant Beasts could see the blazing red sky as if the burning clouds had covered the sky.

Looking at this scene, all the Mutant Beasts knew that their Lord, the Divine Tree, was in the midst of cultivation.

However, something was a bit different today; the phenomena seemed larger.

Looking from the distance, the blazing red dyeing the sky seemed to be continuously growing. In an instant, it covered most of the sky.

“Nine Tails, if not now, when?” A thunderous voice, like a peal of thunder, resounded.

The next moment…

*Kieep..*

A sharp and grating Fox’s call reverberated through the sky.

Immediately after, much to the stupefaction of countless Mutant Beasts, a gigantic Fox covered in fiery fur transformed into a red streak of light and shot toward the depths of the clouds of mist.

With a deafening boom, the crimson mist and clouds in the sky suddenly shook.

And just then…

*Kieep..*

Another Fox’s call echoed before the crimson clouds of mist began to rotate like a vortex.

At the same time, streams of Fire-Attribute Spiritual Energy started gathering at the center of the vortex.

Faintly, if one looked closed, he or she would see red wisps rising from the Himalayan Mountains and rising upward, flowing the core of the vortex.
