As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1034
Chapter 1034 Snow Fox Led the Way
At that time, night gradually approached. Xiao Chen and Leng Baihu followed closely behind the snow fox. The road ahead was getting harder and harder to travel. Thorns and bushes blocked the way from time to time. Even though both of them possessed light arts, they were not as nimble as a little fox in this valley.
“Squeak … squeak!”
Seeing that the two of them were somewhat unable to keep up, Xue Hu also stopped and shouted twice from time to time. After the two of them followed behind, she continued to lead the way.
“This little fox is really fast …”
It was midnight, when Moon was in the sky, illuminating the surroundings. Leng Baihu was panting and shouted softly, “Little fox, wait …”
“Squeak … squeak?” Snow Fox stopped and waited for the two of them to follow.
Leng Baihu looked around and saw that there was no trace of anyone coming. He thought that the center of SorrowlessValley must be nearby, and the Flower of Carefree would also appear. Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but be happy. He smiled and said, “Brother Chen, we’re about to find it. Hehe, thanks to this little fox.”
“Yes.”
Xiao Chen nodded slightly. Without further ado, the Snow Fox called out twice, signaling for the two of them to follow and run forward.
“Little fox, wait … Brother Chen, let’s quickly follow!”
Leng Baihu took a deep breath and immediately followed. This time, the two of them followed for more than two hours. At that time, the moon’s shadow was heading west, and everything around them became hazy again.
After running all night in a secluded valley, Leng Baihu was out of breath. He sat down and took a breath. He looked at the little fox in front of him and said, “Little fox … how far is it before we get to the center of SorrowlessValley?”
“Squeak, squeak!”
Snow Fox whispered as he nodded, as if he was saying, “Almost there, almost there.”
“Hehe!”
Leng Baihu smiled and said to Xiao Chen, “Brother Chen, we will soon find the Worry-free Flower. Those people still don’t know how to get in, but now they are all stupid outside. Hehe …”
“Yes.”
Xiao Chen nodded. He remained silent and carefully sensed the flow of Spiritual Energy around him. He seemed to have an indescribable strange feeling.
“Squeak … squeak!”
After a while, Xue Hu saw that the two of them had recovered from their anger. He shouted twice and continued into the depths of the valley. Leng Baihu stood up and said, “Brother Chen, let’s follow.”
The two of them followed Snow Fox into the valley. This time, they ran for about two hours before arriving at a cold cliff with a cold breeze.
The speed of the Snow Fox gradually slowed down, and its appearance became more vigilant and cautious. However, looking at its’familiar ‘appearance, it didn’t seem like it had come here for the first time.
“Brother Chen … why did he bring us here?”
Leng Baihu tilted his head with a puzzled expression. Wasn’t he going to the heart of SorrowlessValley to find the Worry-free Flower? Why did the fox bring them to such a cliff? Could it be that the Carefree Flower was at the bottom of the cliff?
“Shh …”
Xiao Chen made a silent gesture and whispered, “It seems to have discovered something. In front …”
“Squeak, squeak …”
Snow Fox turned around and whispered to the two of them. Looking at its vigilant and cautious appearance, it no longer dared to go there alone.
“Let’s go take a look.”
Xiao Chen also withdrew his aura and carefully headed towards the edge of the cliff. When the time came, there was actually a huge stone platform beneath the cliff. The grass on the stone platform was long and there was a cave inside. In front of the cave, under the cover of the vegetation, there were several Vermillion Fruits.
“Squeak … Squeak …”
Snow Fox’s eyes stared at the few Vermillion Fruits on the bush. He was already drooling. Leng Baihu walked up and exchanged glances with Xiao Chen. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He dared to bring them to the middle of the night. He didn’t bring them to look for Worry-free Flowers, but came here to look for food …
“Brother Chen, what should we do now?”
“Shh …”
Xiao Chen immediately gestured for silence. Spiritual Energy had leaked out of the cave. This place was definitely not simple.
Just at this moment, a rustling sound suddenly rang out. The fox was startled and jumped up. It jumped onto Xiao Chen’s body, tightly grabbing onto his clothes.
“Brother Chen … look over there!”
Suddenly, two streaks of dark green light appeared at the entrance of the cave. Under the hazy moonlight, the two of them saw a thousand-year-old python wrapped around the cave.
Leng Baihu was shocked, “My dear, this snake is probably not a spirit …”
“Mm …”
Xiao Chen frowned slightly and didn’t say anything else. He waved his hand and a dozen silver needles shot out. The silver needles carried a strong internal force. There was a “chi chi chi” sound. The dozen silver needles had already hit the python’s three inches. The python was paralyzed and was unable to move anymore.
After a while, there was no second snake coming out. It seemed that there was only this snake here. Now that there was no threat, the two of them immediately jumped down.
The Snow Fox also followed and carefully looked at the giant snake that was paralyzed at the side. After confirming that the snake could no longer move, he let go of his courage and ran into the bush. He bit down a Vermillion Fruit in one bite and ate it with relish.
“This, this …”
Leng Baihu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he saw Xue Hu eating with relish. This time, he thought that the fox was going to bring them to look for Wuyou Flower. He had been busy for most of the night, but he dared to come here to look for food.
“This Vermillion Fruit has extraordinary Spiritual Energy.”
Xiao Chen squatted down and picked up a fruit. He took it and sniffed it in front of his nose. Although it was not comparable to the thousand-year-old fruit he found in Wuwang Sea last time, the fruit condensed in SorrowlessValley’s Spiritual Energy was quite extraordinary.
“Here.”
Xiao Chen handed one to Leng Baihu and picked another for himself to eat. He felt that it was sweet and refreshing. The internal strength he had consumed in the past few days seemed to have recovered in an instant. There was even an extraordinary feeling that it was far from being comparable to those pills that could restore his internal strength.
After eating a few vermilion fruits, the two of them no longer felt hungry. Not only that, but their spiritual senses had also sharpened by countless times. At this moment, the two of them were able to clearly see the pitch-black cave.
“This …”
Leng Baihu sighed at the miraculousness of this fruit. Only then did he realize that there had always been rumors in West Shu that SorrowlessValley was an ancient immortal relic. Could the fruit he had just eaten be some kind of immortal fruit?
At this moment, the two of them could even see faint traces of Spiritual Energy flowing out of the cave.
“Those are …”
After eating the Vermillion Fruit, Leng Baihu did not expect that he would actually be able to see the flow of this spiritual energy. This was simply too miraculous. Then wouldn’t he be able to cultivate?
“Squeak … squeak!”
Snow Fox cried out twice and ran into the cave. He turned around and looked at the two of them, signaling them to quickly follow him.
After eating the Vermillion Fruit, Xiao Chen’s Spiritual Sense suddenly increased by countless times. He could even vaguely sense that Spiritual Energy was close to catching up to Wei Yang. This time, he could feel an extraordinary aura of Spiritual Energy on the other side of the cave. That must be the center of SorrowlessValley.
“Let’s go!”
Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Chen immediately followed the Snow Fox into the cave. Leng Baihu was still stunned. He regained his senses and quickly followed.
The complexity of the terrain in the cave far exceeded their expectations. However, both of them now had extraordinary spiritual senses. Even in the dark cave, they could see things as if they were daytime. With the Snow Fox leading the way, no matter how complicated the terrain was, it wouldn’t be difficult for the two of them.
However, the depth of the cave far exceeded their expectations. It was unknown how long had passed before the sound of water droplets and light could be heard. It seemed that the sky outside had already brightened.
“Brother Chen, it’s not far ahead …”
This time, even Leng Baihu could feel that there was an extremely pure Spiritual Qi in front of him. There would definitely be no mistakes this time. The center of SorrowlessValley must be in front of him.
“Yes.” Xiao Chen nodded slightly and didn’t say anything else. He immediately quickened his pace and followed Snow Fox forward.
The light in front of them grew stronger and stronger. Finally, when the two of them walked out of the cave, they felt the sunlight blinding for a moment. However, when they opened their eyes again, everything in front of them suddenly became clear. It was like an immortal realm, appearing before their eyes.
