Chapter 1849: Chapter 1946: Ignorant of Life and Death
Although Fang Lin encountered demon beasts blocking his way in the Savage Western Forest, he still managed to fly past it smoothly, heading straight for the land of Ten Thousand Mountains.
However, Fang Lin knew that the Ten Thousand Mountains was truly a dangerous place, where even some ancient wilderness relics might appear.
After all, Mountain Tu once existed in the Ten Thousand Mountains, a land of all creation, so it’s normal for many ancient wilderness relics to be present.
The key is that the Ten Thousand Mountains is too vast, practically endless, and no one from ancient times to the present has been able to traverse it completely. Its mysterious veil has never been lifted.
Fang Lin was cautious as he entered the Ten Thousand Mountains, following the route he remembered in search of the location of that ancient cave.
But since this Ten Thousand Mountains is over ten thousand years apart from the Ten Thousand Mountains of later generations, there have been some changes. Even following the memorized route, Fang Lin might not necessarily find it smoothly.
Moreover, Fang Lin wasn’t even sure if the ancient cave still existed, so he couldn’t guarantee he’d find it.𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
And just as Fang Lin entered the Ten Thousand Mountains, he vaguely felt as if someone was secretly following him.
Though the follower’s movements were very discreet, Fang Lin’s perception was extremely sharp, allowing him to detect it.
"It seems that those demon beasts in the Savage Western Forest still have ulterior motives and want to lay a hand on me," Fang Lin muttered to himself. This feeling of being secretly followed began after passing through the Savage Western Forest, so Fang Lin deduced that those behind him were likely the demon beasts from the forest.
Fang Lin didn’t want to be harassed by these demon beasts after entering the Ten Thousand Mountains, so he gradually slowed his flying speed until he landed on a mountaintop, pretending to look around while actually paying attention to the movements behind him.
Sure enough, those who were secretly following him also stopped on a mountaintop not far from Fang Lin.
Fang Lin sneered inwardly, guessing that because he had revealed an ancient wilderness treasure, the demon beasts of the Savage Western Forest were unwilling to give up. Even summoning a Bone Demon could not completely suppress them.
"Since you wish to court death, you can’t blame me," Fang Lin thought to himself. There would be no mercy for these persistent demon beasts.
On a mountaintop only a few hundred miles away from Fang Lin, indeed, a few figures were hidden there. All had hidden their appearances and even concealed their own aura with special techniques. But they didn’t realize that Fang Lin had already discovered their whereabouts.
"This one is very vigilant; we must act carefully," said the strongest of the five, his eyes flashing red, not like human eyes but more like beast pupils.
"He is merely at the mid-Immortal cultivation level. Together, we five could kill him easily, even with a Bone Demon protecting him," another said quietly, looking sharp-featured and somewhat sinister.
"The Bone Demon is rare. If this person can control one, he might have connections. What if he’s from a major human clan? Could we bring trouble upon ourselves?" The only female among the five expressed her hesitation and worry.
The woman was quite beautiful, but like the other four, she was also a demon beast in disguise, the true identity being the strongest five demon beasts of the Savage Western Forest.
Fang Lin’s guess was spot-on. The five demon beasts had become covetous because of Fang Lin’s display of the ancient wilderness treasure and the Bone Demon, tracking him to the Ten Thousand Mountains to ambush him and snatch the treasures.
Upon hearing the woman’s words, the others had varied expressions. After all, the current environment favored the Human Clan over the demon beasts, overwhelmingly so, with the demon beasts unable to hold their heads up before the Human Clan.
The five of them were strong among the demon beasts, but if they provoked a first-rate human force, a Human Clan powerhouse would soon descend upon the Savage Western Forest to wipe them out.
Only the Ancient Demon Ridge and a few truly major clans within the demon beasts could contend against the Human Clan powers, while the Savage Western Forest was too weak in the face of true human powerhouses.
The red-eyed beast-man snorted, glaring fiercely at the woman: "If he dies in the Ten Thousand Mountains, they won’t find out anything, even if he’s from a major human clan."
The woman hesitated, then continued, "But I feel this person isn’t ordinary; it might not be so easy."
"What are you worried about? If we five act together, we could even fight against a peak Immortal. Besides, we have artifacts to delay the Bone Demon. Facing a mid-Immortal-level human warrior, what’s there to worry about?" the red-eyed man replied.
After his words, the woman was silent. Following this far, retreating now would be irrational.
Moreover, she coveted the ancient wilderness treasures on Fang Lin. Even if there was some risk, it seemed worth it.
"Big brother, where did that kid go?" the sharp-featured man suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
The other four looked over immediately, indeed finding Fang Lin no longer visible on the mountaintop.
"What happened? Weren’t you supposed to keep an eye on him?" The red-eyed man was furious, glaring harshly at the sharp-featured man.
The latter looked aggrieved, claiming he had been watching, but just a moment’s glance away, and suddenly the person was gone.
Suddenly, all five looked up to see Fang Lin standing above them in the air, coldly gazing down at them.
The five looked at each other, surprised that the young man had already discovered them, dashing any hopes of an ambush.
But since ambushing failed, they’d have to attack directly to kill and steal.
"You five have trailed me this far without making a move, but I’m running out of patience," Fang Lin said indifferently.
"Attack!" With no desire to waste words with Fang Lin, the red-eyed man shouted, charging at Fang Lin with a blood-red saber, demon qi surging. Impressively, he had reached the level of a Nine-Transformation demon beast.
Nine-Transformation demon beasts corresponded to Human Clan Immortal powerhouses!
In terms of cultivation level, the red-eyed man was not weaker than Fang Lin, and the other four shared the same level, equating to five Nine-Transformation demon beasts besieging Fang Lin alone.
"You court death!" Fang Lin sneered, disdainful of acting himself. With a pat of his waist’s Nine Palace Bag, he summoned another Bone Demon.
