Sovereign to Immortality

1Even though these two packhorses were already at the fourth level of the Mortal Realm, they had reached their limit by this time. When they passed a forest and saw the fresh grass in the forest, Yang Junshan decided to rest for a while, so that the two packhorses could regain their strength.    2

    

Sitting on the grass in the forest, Yang Junsha couldn't help but yearn for the other cultivators who were in the late stage of the Martial Disciple Realm. Although the cultivators could fly at an extremely high speed, even with a flying magic tool, they could only fly for a short distance; not to mention the Hunting Horse Beast, even if they ran for a whole day and night, it would still take about half of the spiritual energy in Yang Junshan's < Wutu Spiritual Art >.    

    

Only when one reached the advanced realms of the Zhenren Realm, where the internal spiritual energy would transform into zhen yuan and form a protective aura, would one be able to truly travel to the North Sea. The distance from Meng Yu County to Yu City was only one night.    

    

"Caw Caw!"    

    

When he raised his head to look, he saw a crow about a foot long flapping its wings on a branch of a large tree in the forest. Its two eyes sparkled in the dark forest, and Yang Junshan even felt that the bird was staring at him!    

    

Yang Junshan felt a little unlucky. He was about to stand up to chase it away when this pitch black bird flapped its wings and shot out of the forest like a black lightning bolt. Yang Junshan didn't even have time to cast a spell.    

    

This bird is so fast!    

    

After resting in the woods for half an hour, Yang Junshan fed two pellets to each of the two Hunting Horses. These pellets could recover quickly, but the price would be that they might cause serious damage to the two Hunting Horses. Even if they could survive, they would have to cover their eyes and go to the mill to grind them.    

    

After returning from the Sunset Mountains mine, Yang Junshan ordered the two of them to head north. Although Yang Junshan had been running for a day and a night, Tigress was also a great expert at crossing mountains, and she was also a lot more efficient than him.    

    

Yang Junshan jumped onto his horse and just as he was about to reach his maximum speed, three black dots appeared in the sky. As the horses ran, the distance between the two quickly shortened, and Yang Junshan finally saw that the three black dots were about three feet long, with their wings spread wide open to almost two feet of a big crow. When the three crows noticed Yang Junshan, they quickly dived down, and at the same time stretched out two sharp claws towards his eyes.    

    

Yang Junshan was shocked, it was too late to use the Snake Kiss Bow now. Yang Junshan raised one of his palms vertically, then slashed at the space in front of him. A formless potential rapidly condensed in the air, even forming a visible ripple, which shot down towards the first crow.    

    

A hoarse scream came from the sky. In the midst of the flying black feathers, a rain of blood was falling on Yang Junshan's head. However, Yang Junshan waved his sleeves and swept them aside.    

    

The first crow that swooped down was already cut into two halves by the Splitting Mountain Spirit Art. The spirit technique's aftereffects did not stop as it once again smashed into the chest of the second crow.    

    

Noticing that the situation was not good, the third crow quickly circled in the air and tried to escape. However, Yang Junshan had already grasped the Snake-Necked Bow in his hand, and a spirit light arrow was condensed on the bowstring.    

    

Waving the reins in his hand, Yang Junshan moved sideways and picked up the crow's corpse that had been killed by the Splitting Mountain Spirit Art. Instantly, his Spiritual Sense sensed a faint demonic aura.    

    

Yang Junshan's expression froze, he stretched out his hand to touch the body, but didn't find any immortal spirit, but this made him feel that there was a layer of feathers on his body, no wonder he was able to preserve his corpse after being hit by the spirit art.    

    

Speaking of which, the feathers on the crow's wings should be the best material for making arrows and armor. Unfortunately, Yang Junshan didn't have the time to collect them, so he could only throw the crow's corpse on the ground and pat the Hunting Horse Beast on the neck, saying: "Let's go, there should be 'surprise' waiting for us ahead."    

    

Five miles away, Yang Junshan gradually discovered that crows were standing on the branches of the trees on both sides of the road. As he continued forward, more and more crows were standing on the branches of the trees on both sides of the road. Even the trees on both sides of the road seemed to have formed a long black wall.    

    

"Squeak, squeak ~ ~"    

    

The Hunting Horses beneath his feet suddenly stopped and began to pace around uneasily.    

    

When Yang Junshan raised his head, he saw the tallest branch in the distance staring at him. A gigantic black crow was standing on the tallest branch, looking at him from afar.    

    

This crow was two feet long, and had a pair of wings that were more than three feet wide. Its eyes were like black gems, and even in the evening light, one could still see a glimmer of light.    

    

The Raven King was the only true cultivator among the flock of crows that had instinctively entered the demonic path!    

    

They were all afraid. Yang Junshan comforted the packhorse under him with one hand, and looked up with a lot of eyes. Suddenly, he focused his eyes and saw dozens of white skeletons covering the road under the big tree where the crow king was standing.    

    

Yang Junshan exuded a strong aura. The crows on the branches around him started to caw and fly up from the tree, but none of them dared to rush towards Yang Junshan.    

    

Suppressed by Yang Junshan's spiritual energy, the Hunchbacked Beast couldn't help but move forward. When it got close enough, it could clearly see that there was still fresh meat on the bones, and not far away, there was a caravan that had already been broken down. Judging from the things scattered on it, this should be an attacked caravan, and among these scattered carriages, there were also dozens of black ravens' corpses.    

    

Obviously, the caravan had been attacked by the crows, and everyone had been killed. The crows had eaten almost all the meat on the bodies, except for the bones.    

    

It was such a familiar scene. The memories from his previous life were so vivid that it even made Yang Junshan feel like he hadn't seen it in a long time. The vicious qi accumulated from the struggle for life and death in his previous life burst out from his body all of a sudden!    

    

The crows standing in the middle of the trees on both sides of the road flew up into the sky, forming a black circle in the sky. Yang Junshan felt as if the whole world had turned dark.    

    

Yang Junshan was fearless. He slapped the storage bag on his waist and the Mountain Lord's Seal floated above his head. The magnetic beam of light spread out with Yang Junshan as the center, covering a radius of 300 feet.    

    

Dozens of black crows that were flying low in the air seemed to suddenly carry something far heavier than their own weight as they passed through the area enveloped by the magnetic spirit light. They only had time to let out a hoarse cry before falling from the sky.    

    

"Caw — Caw —"    

    

As the Raven King let out a loud cry, the thousands of black crows circling in the sky formed a giant clockwise vortex in the sky above Yang Junshan's head. There was a huge black crow spiraling in the middle of the vortex.    

    

Yang Junshan sneered and jumped down from the pack horse. He said in a low voice, "It seems we have to delay our journey to Hantian Peak!"    

    

"Roar ~ ~ Roar ~ ~ ~"    

    

A tiger's roar that shook the entire forest came from afar, and the orderly circling formation of the crows in the sky was immediately disrupted.    

    

The Fire Crow King, who was in the middle of the whirlpool, let out an angry caw.    

    

However, the tiger roar that came from the forest once again seemed to be even more furious and even carried an imposing aura. The formation of the crows in the sky became even more chaotic!    

    

Helpless, the crow king finally let out a long cry, as if giving in. The horde of crows in the sky suddenly gave way, and the formation that had been trying its best to maintain collapsed. Countless crows scattered into the forest, and even the crow king disappeared.    

    

The cultivators of the Heaven Shaking Sect, led by the Green Tree Grandmaster, continued to head south. However, at this moment, they seemed to have met with trouble, and everyone was temporarily resting.    

    

"How is it? How much did you lose?" Daoist Master Qing Shuang's tone of voice was rather calm, as if all the difficulties he was facing now were not even in his eyes.    

    

"Earlier, when the Heaven Shaking Peak collapsed, the group ran for more than forty times, and then suddenly encountered the attacks of twenty-six berserk beasts. After this incident, nearly thirty disciples still secretly left the group, and although we are close to the Cheng Yu county now, we have already lost nearly a hundred people!"    

    

"Not bad, it's much better than I thought. At least we still have a hundred and fifty disciples following us, and after this experience, the remaining disciples will finally be able to carry the true backbone of Heaven Shaking Sect!"    

    

He did not know what to say, so after thinking for a moment, he changed the topic and asked: "Senior Brother, what are those fierce beasts? How could they even jump up to bite someone? The disciples were all bitten, scratched, or even killed without any preparation. This is too strange!"    

    

Spiritual Master Green Tree, however, did not answer his question. Instead, he stood up and said, "Call all the disciples here. Tell the injured people to carry them. They pass through Morning Yu County and meet up with Senior Brother Zhu in Jinyu County!"    

    

"Then, will senior brother Wang Qian cause any problems for us?"    

    

"He dares!" Adept Green Tree said coldly.
