d her hand, shoving the blood-covered Omar into the nearby trash can. Then she took out a tissue and wiped her hands, grinning at everyone as if nothing had happened and said, "Alright, let's go."The...Victory was within reach, Ye Bufan's speed increased, and after a few ups and downs, he arrived at the foot of the mountain.

What appeared before him was not a single mountain, for in the distance the towering peak that seemed to reach into the clouds was only the main one. Beside it, there were more than ten other mountains, complex and intertwined.

I don't know if Xue Lang Shan refers to the main peak or this small mountain range.

These hills, big and small, piled up together, forming a valley in the middle. That rich spiritual energy came wafting out from inside the valley.

Ye Bufan gazed at the mouth of this valley, like a snow wolf baring its fangs and claws.

He stepped into the valley, and as soon as he reached the entrance, he felt a difference. Outside it was freezing with snow and biting winds, but here it was warm like spring.

If you didn't know, you would think you were lost. No one could imagine that in the Arctic there would be such a paradise.

In the center of the valley, surrounded by ice and snow, there is a spring of clear water covering an area of about ten square meters. It looks like a green mirror, reflecting the surrounding scenery.

Thin wisps of white mist rose from the surface of the pond. This was no ordinary water vapor, but pure spiritual energy, condensed to its most potent form.

Behind the pond water, there grew a plant over a foot tall. Though it was entirely black, it somehow gave off a feeling of vitality and growth.

"The Spirit Spring, and the Soul-Awakening Herb, they really do grow together."

Ye Bufan's heart surged with joy. After searching for so many days, he finally found the Soul Awakening Grass, and even stumbled upon such a large spirit spring.

Compared to the nearby, drying-up spirit spring in Jiangbei City, these are worlds apart. There is simply no comparison.

If he cultivated quietly here, he could probably break through the threshold of the Heavenly Rank in less than half a month.

But right now, the most important thing is to look at the wake-up grass and get it in my hands before I can rest easy.

He strode to the edge of the pool and began examining the soul-awakening herb.

A few minutes later, he couldn't help but frown. According to the ancient records, this herb wouldn't be fully mature until its entire body turned black.

But this one before me, with faint white streaks on its leaves and petals, is clearly not yet fully mature.

Based on the time it takes, it will probably be another three days before they are fully ripe.

Although unripe soulgrass still possesses medicinal properties, it's significantly less potent compared to fully mature soulgrass.

For safety's sake, Ye Bufan still decided to wait for the plant to mature completely before harvesting it.

Having thought this through, he didn't rush to cultivate or collect the spiritual water from the pond.

The Soul Awakening Herb has been growing here for so many years, it should have completely adapted to the environment, including the intensity of the spiritual energy.

If I were to break the balance here, it would probably affect its progress of maturation.

He looked around. The place was nearly a thousand square meters. Outside, there was snow all over, but inside it was warm like spring.

"That's a really nice place."

Ye Bufan decided to stay here and wait for the Soul Awakening Grass to mature, but he thought of another problem.

This time to the original North Pole ice, it was not only himself, but also many people from the underworld, even Yamamoto Soichi from Japan came.

They might not be as fast as us getting here, but in a few days, who knows if someone else will arrive.

Once these people discover the holy spring, they will inevitably fight each other to grab it. With himself and Ye Tian, they can barely deal with one early stage Heaven-ranked expert now. If there are more, they won't be able to handle it.

We need to make sure we get the Soul Rejuvenating Grass without fail.

The best way to deal with experts is to set up an array. He took out the battle flags from his storage ring, pondered for a moment, and then threw them out one by one, surrounding the spirit spring with a Five Thunder Extermination Demon Array.

This is the strongest formation he could set up with his current cultivation, because the eye of the formation is a Heavenly Thunder Orb.

This thing is a magic weapon refined from the inner elixir of a three-eyed lightning snake, capable of bringing a formation's power to its peak.

Don't even mention the early stage of Heaven Rank, even a master in the middle stage of Heaven Rank would be helpless.

He let out a quiet sigh of relief, secretly pleased that everything was finally taken care of and he had some semblance of security.

The next few days were uneventful. One day turned into two, and before I knew it, it was the third day.

The weather today is pleasantly unexpected. After several days of wind and snow, they finally subsided. Although the sun in the sky doesn't bring much warmth yet, its golden rays cover the earth.

Ye Bufan guarded in front of the awakening soul grass. At this moment, the white stripe had dimmed considerably and was about to be completely ripe.

Just then, he faintly heard a whooshing sound coming from outside the valley.

"Is someone here"

Ye Bufan frowned slightly. Although there was an array guarding him, he still didn't like being disturbed.

He crept to the mouth of the valley and hid behind a large boulder, peering out.

A white figure dashed ahead outside the valley, closely pursued by a black-robed figure who was speeding toward them.

After Ye Bufan clearly saw the white figure, his expression changed instantly. It was Leng Qingqiu who had parted ways with him just a short while ago.

His face was even paler now, with a streak of crimson blood at the corner of his mouth. It was clear that he had been seriously injured before.

Able to injure a Heaven Realm expert, this shows just how formidable the person behind it is.

"Chinese woman, you can't escape. Hand over the millennium snow lotus, and obediently become this king's witch wife, or you will die."

The man in black robes spoke in a hoarse and unpleasant voice, his whole body shrouded in a cloud of darkness. He was clearly a wizard.

Feeling the aura emanating from this guy, Ye Bufan's heart tightened. He had met a few wizards before, but none were as powerful as the one in front of him.

According to Christina's introduction, wizards are divided into wizards, Archmages, Mage Kings, Great Mage Kings, and God Wizards.

The Witch King is equivalent to a master of magic, and his combat power is not much different from that of a Tier-earth warrior. Christina is at this level.

And after reaching the level of the Great Shaman King, combat power will increase again, equivalent to that of a Heavenly Rank martial artist. It's no wonder he would injure Leng Qingqiu.

Seeing the distance between the two closing, with no escape possible, Leng Qingqiu stopped and turned back, snarling, "Die, you vile creature!"

After she spoke, the long sword in her hand flashed and turned into a beam of light, slashing forward.

A Heaven-rank master's full-powered strike, awe-inspiring in its might, swept up the surrounding wind and snow once more.

"Overreaching."

A bone-chilling laugh escaped the Dark Robe's lips. With a flick of his wrist, a jet of black energy erupted from the depths of his wide sleeves, transforming into a massive black bird that effortlessly deflected Leng Qingqiu's attack.

Ye Bufan frowned. To be able to transform mana into physical objects and push combat power to the extreme was a capability only possessed by masters of the art.

It's clear this guy is a powerful sorcerer, and his abilities are quite impressive.

After wielding this sword, Leng Qingqiu's mouth overflowed with blood again, clearly indicating a serious injury.

The Robe Man burst into another fit of triumphant laughter: "Chinese man, I, the Great Witch King Oleg, am ranked third on the Dark List. You are simply no match for me. Why not just kneel down and beg for mercy"than a massive mace appeared before him."Damn old bastard, you're relentless! I don't care who you are, I'll make you know who I am!"Jin Meier is still missing, and this guy is still here acting all t...
