116: Yihe: Thank you.

"Ah! Help!"

Inside the hotel, people who had been watching the excitement from the window were all startled at this moment and quickly moved away from the windows.

Because just now, a quill from the back of that hedgehog monster shot through the window, whizzing past the face of a man who was watching the commotion inside the hotel, and then embedding itself in the wall behind him.

This scene utterly terrified everyone in the hotel, and they all scrambled to hide in places without windows.

At this moment, Yi He's friend was also scared, pulling the still-dazed Yi He and starting to run.

As for the reason for Yi He's daze, it was because the quill from the hedgehog Yao Beast had just flown past his face, and even now, there was still a red mark on his face, which was stinging painfully!

This near-death experience left Yi He completely stunned.

After he reacted, he felt a tingling sensation all over his scalp and then followed his friend, starting to run.

Yi He's friend had originally intended to pull him to hide in a windowless area within the hotel.

However, Yi He, who had unwavering faith in his own luck, completely disagreed with this decision. Without a word, he pulled his friend and ran towards the parking lot.

Then, getting in the car, starting the ignition, and stepping on the accelerator were all done in one smooth motion, and he drove away like a flash, escaping from this dangerous place.

In the car, his friend saw Yi He's skilled actions and watched him calmly drive the car, somewhat admiring his courage.

After they were far away from the monster and felt that there was no longer any danger, his friend finally breathed a sigh of relief and then teased, "I didn't expect you to be so calm when facing something like this!"

"I never realized you were so brave before!"

Yi He: "..."

Yi He gave him a speechless look.

He thought to himself, if you also encountered such things every time like me, you would probably be in the same state as me now!

Seeing that Yi He didn't speak, his friend didn't think much of it, after all, something so major had just happened.

However, the feeling of escaping death made him very happy. He patted Yi He's shoulder, "Thanks, brother, I'll repay you."

Yi He shook his head, looking at the distant battle scene between the Yao Beast and the soldiers, and sighed, saying with some weariness, "No need for repayment, after all, I can't give you my kind of luck."

"Hey, what are you talking about!"

His friend thought Yi He was talking about the good luck of surviving a great disaster and laughed, "If your luck could really be given to me, wouldn't I instantly become a European Emperor!"

"The quills on the back of that monster just grazed your face. If it had been a little more off, you would have been dead."

"This luck is Heaven-Defying, alright."

Yi He: "..."

Thank you very much!

Looking at the happy expression on his friend's face, Yi He finally sighed again, but this time he didn't continue the conversation.

Instead, he sat in the driver's seat, took out his diary, and opened it, wanting to see if there was an update about this incident in the diary.

However, he was disappointed. He had read the latest updated entries in the diary, but they did not mention this incident.

...

On the other side, the soldiers at the foot of Mount Tai were still fighting the Yao Beast, while others were responsible for guiding the surrounding ordinary people to a safe place.

However, it was clear that this battle was much more difficult than the previous one against the monster!

Although the weapons carried by the soldiers were powerful, they simply couldn't hit the Yao Beast in front of them.

Even if they exploded not far from the Yao Beast, they could not cause substantial damage to it.

Moreover, this Yao Beast seemed to have no plan whatsoever; it was simply charging recklessly, looking more like an instinctive reaction of a common animal that had been startled.

However, at this moment, due to the intense battle, no one paid attention to this aspect.

It was just that the monster was about to break through the soldiers' defensive line, and Li Mu, who was in the sky, frowned slightly upon seeing this scene.

Then, with a gentle wave of his finger, the Jin Ming Sword he was standing on suddenly flew out and descended from the sky.

The Jin Ming Sword's descent speed also began to accelerate, and finally, with a clang, it landed in front of the hedgehog Yao Beast, embedded in the concrete ground.

Feeling the powerful Qi fluctuation of Li Mu emanating from the Jin Ming Sword, the hedgehog Yao Beast, which had been in an instinctive reaction, instantly sobered up.

Then, it looked at the destroyed environment around it, then at the surrounding humans, and finally at the Jin Ming Sword in front of it. Ultimately, it chose to retreat, turned around, and fled into the Mount Tai Mountain Range.

However, the direction it fled was not the path tourists used to ascend the mountain, so it wouldn't cause any trouble for the climbers on the mountain.

The situation quickly calmed down. The soldiers also began to report this incident and started handling the aftermath.

Li Mu in the sky also retrieved the Jin Ming Sword. However, just as he was about to leave and return to the Cave Heaven Small World, his gaze suddenly turned towards Ji Jiangxue in the mountains, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Because he discovered that a white light thread was wrapped around Ji Jiangxue's foot, and the other end of the thread passed through the ground, extending directly to the Spiritual Vein in the mountain range!

Was this the Spiritual Vein he had previously placed in the Mount Tai Mountain Range?

It was just that this Spiritual Vein had unexpectedly entangled Ji Jiangxue, which was somewhat beyond Li Mu's expectation.

Then, he stood in the air, pondered for a moment, and at the same time checked Ji Jiangxue's status through the System, even using Appraisal. Only then did he learn something.

Because when he placed the Spiritual Vein, Ji Jiangxue happened to be standing directly on the location where the Spiritual Vein was fusing, and thus she carried the aura of the Spiritual Vein. Now that the Spiritual Vein was fusing, it intended to drag Ji Jiangxue into the mountain range to become a part of the Mount Tai Spiritual Vein!

Or rather, to become the Mountain God of Mount Tai?

This explanation is quite similar!

However, it's not direct Immortal Ascension; it would be more like a spirit body, a spirit cultivator? Or a ghost cultivator.

But in that case...

Li Mu looked at Ji Jiangxue on the ground, who was still unaware of her situation, his mind rapidly working.

Ji Jiangxue's situation could also be manipulated.

Furthermore, if Ji Jiangxue truly fused with Mount Tai and became the consciousness of Mount Tai, or its Mountain God, the changes it would bring to this world would definitely be enormous!

It would also be of great benefit to his plan to transform Earth into a Dao-Immortal world.

Moreover, she would then be able to restrain all the Yao Beasts on Mount Tai, which would only benefit his subsequent plans for Mount Tai, with no disadvantages whatsoever.

Thinking of this, the smile on Li Mu's face deepened.

His gaze turned to Ji Jiangxue below. This time, perhaps due to an accident, Ji Jiangxue indirectly gained extraordinary abilities.

If she wanted to break free from Mount Tai and no longer be Mount Tai's worker, she would probably have to wait until she became a Ghost Immortal...
