"What should we do? Escape?!"

Chu Huannian watched Ancestor Chiji unleash his mighty power, successfully obliterating the Stone Spirit, the master of a perilous location, at the cost of some effort. She couldn't help feeling a bit tense, immediately considering fleeing.

But then, she noticed Mu Jinyu beside her, who had remained calm and collected from start to finish. Her tension slightly eased, and she curiously asked for Mu Jinyu's opinion.

She found it strange; Mu Jinyu's cultivation should only be at the Early Divine Transformation Realm Stage. After being cornered by Ancestor Chiji, he ought to feel hopeless and act bravely in the face of death. Yet, why did she feel that Mu Jinyu seemed to have a way out?

But what way could Mu Jinyu possibly have?

He couldn't possibly think that a wounded Ancestor Chiji could be taken down by the two of them together, right?

"Boom!!"

At this moment, Chu Huannian noticed Ancestor Chiji in front, extending endless red fur, which overwhelmed the sky as it surged towards them. Seeing this, her heart tightened as she quickly grabbed Mu Jinyu's hand, intending to leave with him quickly.

However, she couldn't pull Mu Jinyu up.

Mu Jinyu calmly said, "No rush, let's watch."

As he spoke, Chu Huannian was shocked to witness a secondary array pattern suddenly appearing in the void, intertwining, and then trapping Ancestor Chiji.

As the void slightly twisted for a few moments, Ancestor Chiji and the overwhelming red fur that was closing in on them vanished.

"Where... where is he?!"

Chu Huannian saw Ancestor Chiji disappear right in front of them at the critical moment and immediately asked Mu Jinyu in a daze.

Then she realized she had broken into a cold sweat, her hand still tightly gripping Mu Jinyu's, which she hurriedly released.

Mu Jinyu didn't mind this and casually explained, "After successfully setting up the formation to conceal my aura, I found the Stone Spirit's spiritual wisdom was indeed low. I had painstakingly set up this formation; it would have been a waste to only use it to burn it. So, I conveniently etched a teleportation array on it. I wagered this old creature Chiji could smash the Stone Spirit..."

As he spoke, Mu Jinyu laughed, revealing a row of neat, spotless teeth, "I'm glad Chiji didn't disappoint me..."

"Teleportation array? You can actually use a teleportation array?"

Chu Huannian was incredibly surprised upon hearing Mu Jinyu's explanation.

She then suppressed her surprise, knowing Mu Jinyu probably wouldn't explain too much, and curiously asked, "Where did you teleport Ancestor Chiji now? You shouldn't randomly teleport him; it could be deadly!"

Mu Jinyu replied, "I certainly wouldn't be reckless. As for where he went, you've surely heard of it, perhaps even been there. It's the 'Iceflame Dead Cave'!"

"Iceflame Dead Cave?!"

Chu Huannian was shocked to hear Mu Jinyu's words because that was one of the perilous locations she had avoided earlier.

Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, a sudden realization flashed through her mind, quickly clarifying Mu Jinyu's plan to trap Ancestor Chiji!

It was to send him repeatedly to these extremely perilous and treacherous locations, colliding with the great dangers within, getting severely injured time and again!

Eventually, no matter how powerful Ancestor Chiji was, able to fight against an Early Void Breaking Realm adversary without defeat, he would be worn out to death!

Mu Jinyu's plan, though seemingly simple, couldn't be executed by just anyone.

After all, not everyone could be like Chu Huannian, who wasted seven or eight life-saving treasures to lure Ancestor Chiji here.

Not everyone could set up a teleportation array on the Stone Spirit and use the Chixing Clan's red fur to provoke the Stone Spirit into attacking Old Man Chiji!

If anything went wrong in the process, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Thinking of this, Chu Huannian couldn't help but feel a sense of dread.

Mu Jinyu stood up and said, "Let's go take a look at the Iceflame Dead Cave, don't let him escape!"

As he spoke, he took out the flying boat, preparing to fly toward the Iceflame Dead Cave nearby.

Because of Chu Huannian's behavior, Mu Jinyu knew she was indeed on his side, so he didn't mind sharing the entire plan with her and invited her to watch Ancestor Chiji's demise again.

Chu Huannian saw Mu Jinyu take out the flying boat to ride and shook her head, "Too slow, I'll take you there directly."

With that, she waved her hand, and Mu Jinyu and her figures disappeared from the chaotic scene outside Falling Stone Valley.

"Scree!!"

After feeling a slight discomfort from the sudden transition, Mu Jinyu found himself inside a cave shimmering with iceflame, along with Chu Huannian.

Ancestor Chiji was ahead, fighting furiously with a decayed Fallen Ice Phoenix emitting a thick aura of death, with its physical body rotting.

This Fallen Ice Phoenix was very powerful, with strength close to the Late Broken Void Realm Stage. If it hadn't died many years ago, only to resurrect as a zombie, losing much of its spiritual wisdom and fighting purely on instinct, it probably wouldn't have had any trouble taking down Ancestor Chiji!

Currently, in the battle with Ancestor Chiji, it seemed to be losing ground!

"Why is the Fallen Ice Phoenix fighting Ancestor Chiji?"

Chu Huannian curiously asked.

Mu Jinyu explained, "Remember when Chiji punched and killed that stone man?"

"Hmm?"

Chu Huannian, being smart, immediately understood upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, and said in astonishment, "You not only etched a teleportation array on the Stone Spirit but also smeared it with something that would anger the Fallen Ice Phoenix? So after Ancestor Chiji smashed the Stone Spirit, he got stained with much of this aura, and once he was teleported to the Iceflame Dead Cave, he was instinctively targeted by the Fallen Phoenix?"

"Yes, indeed. You're very smart." Mu Jinyu looked at Chu Huannian and praised her.

Chu Huannian rolled her eyes at Mu Jinyu speechlessly, unwilling to continue talking.

She felt hurt, thinking she couldn't understand anything with Mu Jinyu by her side, yet he still had the nerve to call her smart?

Was this mocking her?

Chu Huannian said no more, and Mu Jinyu naturally didn't bother to converse with her, quietly enjoying the scene of Ancestor Chiji's desperate struggle.

Finally, with a roar, the Fallen Ice Phoenix was successfully obliterated by Ancestor Chiji!

But the cost was Ancestor Chiji suffering even more severe injuries.

"Little creatures, you're doomed!!"

After killing the Fallen Ice Phoenix, Ancestor Chiji immediately turned to Mu Jinyu and Chu Huannian, his face twisted with rage!

However, before he could finish speaking, the teleportation array activated.

Once more, he was teleported by Mu Jinyu to another perilous location, gradually experiencing the trials between life and death.

"Let's go to Tuotian Ridge!"

Mu Jinyu saw Ancestor Chiji disappear and turned to Chu Huannian.

Chu Huannian retorted, "Do you think I'm your subordinate?"

Though her tone carried complaints and displeasure, ultimately, Chu Huannian didn't abandon Mu Jinyu. She didn't venture to Tuotian Ridge alone to watch Ancestor Chiji's humiliating battle.

Although doing it that way might have felt satisfying for a moment, once the battle at Tuotian Ridge concluded and Ancestor Chiji was teleported away again, she wouldn't know where the next battlefield would be.
