Pit Kill

The next morning!

After a night of heavy rain, the sky still carried a damp aura!

In the cave, the Scarecrow was rooted to the ground, unmoving, as if it had never left.

Bai Ling, who had Cultivated all night, felt inexplicably lighter.

She looked at the Scarecrow and smiled, "We should set off!"

"Remember!"

"Those four people I told you about last night, you must remember them firmly."

"If you run into them, you must inform me immediately so I can take you to escape!"

She didn't know that the four people who made her so anxious had already died.

Their bodies had been gnawed by unknown beasts.

Their treasures and even their Legacy were still lying on the Scarecrow.

As she spoke, Bai Ling packed her belongings and stepped directly out of the cave.

She resolutely embarked on her journey to the Northern Region.

On this trip, she might die!

But on life's Dao, as you make various choices, there will always be various dangers and hardships.

Afraid?

Naturally, she was afraid.

But this was not a reason for her to retreat.

There are always some things that allow people to overcome difficulties and fear, pushing you forward step by step.

The Scarecrow, with strange steps, followed closely behind, step by step.

It looked like a loyal guard.

Because she was afraid of being discovered, Bai Ling did not choose to fly through the air.

Instead, she took the Scarecrow and traveled through the vast mountains.

And as they embarked on the path to receive the Legacy.

On the other side!

Zhong Qing, with Hei Bai, after several days of travel, finally arrived at the Northern Region.

Unlike the Eastern Region, the Northern Region was mostly permafrost!

Feather-like snow fell, and ice crystals condensed everywhere.

It was as if one had directly crossed from a semi-tropical region into the Antarctic.

Looking around.

The surroundings were vast, with ice mountains and snow everywhere.

The cold wind howled, bringing not only a chill but also Spiritual Qi mixed within.

This was truly a paradise for Cultivators!

Ordinary people would find it difficult to move an inch here.

However, Cultivators were like fish in water here.

Since arriving in the Northern Region, the System had lost Bai Ling's signal.

Zhong Qing was not anxious either.

When the time came, there would naturally be news.

He and Hei Bai continued forward.

They crossed snow-capped mountains and ice lakes.

Seeing a city standing in the midst of the vast snow ahead.

Zhong Qing's expression shifted, and he led Hei Bai leisurely into the city.

The city was called Wind Snow Silver City!

The surroundings were a scene of decay and dilapidation.

Judging from the residual energy fluctuations of its collapsed buildings, it seemed to have recently undergone a war.

On the streets, there wasn't a single pedestrian.

Accompanied by the chilling wind, it appeared particularly desolate.

On both sides of the road, inns and shops were all closed.

Even if one wanted a cooked meal or to replenish some drinks, there was no place to be found.

Just then, at a street corner, several men walked towards them!

They wore fur coats and had long bows and sharp arrows at their waists.

Seeing Zhong Qing and Hei Bai, the men were first stunned, then delighted.

The leading man among them stepped forward and cupped his hands towards the two, saying, "Two brothers, I am Lin Bufan."

"It's like this!"

"We discovered a Secret Realm outside the city!"

"But due to insufficient manpower, we are unable to open this Secret Realm."

"I wonder if the two brothers are interested in joining us to explore this Secret Realm together?"

Zhong Qing glanced at the men, a playful look in his eyes.

The people of this Northern Region were quite interesting.

As soon as he set foot here, someone was eager to share a Secret Realm.

This was like walking on the street in his previous life and someone coming up to ask him.

Brother, want to get rich?

If you want to get rich, follow me!

He knew without thinking that there must be something fishy about this.

However, Zhong Qing did not refuse.

He was just worried about finding a place to rest and eat a hot meal.

The men came at just the right time.

He immediately smiled.

"Your Excellency's kind invitation, if I refuse, wouldn't that seem unsympathetic?"

Lin Bufan's smile widened upon hearing this.

"As soon as I saw you, brother, I knew you were a Dragon and Phoenix among men, and in the future, you will surely achieve great things."

"Perhaps, this Secret Realm will be the place of your ascent, brother."

"To prevent any changes, why don't we set off immediately for the Secret Realm, what do you think, brother?"

"Excellent!"

And so, the original five-person team became a seven-person group with the addition of Zhong Qing and Hei Bai.

Among the seven, there were both men and women.

A female Cultivator secretly transmitted her voice with a sneer, "This idiot, he believes whatever people say. Such a simple and easily deceived person is rare these days!"

"Looking at his extraordinary demeanor, he's clearly a Disciple from some sect out for experience."

"This time, we deserve to get rich!"

Another bearded man also grinned and transmitted his voice, "I'm already eager to open his Storage Pouch and strip his family fortune."

At this moment, Lin Bufan transmitted his voice, "Alright, both of you say less, lest you reveal a flaw. Once we bring him to the location, won't he be at our mercy, whether round or flat?"

The small actions of the men naturally could not escape Zhong Qing's Dharma Eye.

As he expected, he had encountered a group of swindlers.

However, they were mistaken in treating him as a fat sheep.

The seven left the city and traveled through the air. After half a day, they soon arrived in front of an ice Immortal Cave.

"Brother, the Secret Realm is right here!"

The men landed, and Lin Bufan pointed to the cave ahead.

While Zhong Qing's attention was on the Immortal Cave.

Lin Bufan and the other four slowly retreated.

When they had retreated to a certain position, the laughter of the five gradually became perverse.

"Haha..."

"Idiot, do you really think your Lord Lin is kind-hearted and willing to share a Secret Realm with you unconditionally?"

Lin Bufan laughed heartily.

As he spoke, he formed hand seals.

As streams of profound yellow light circulated, a confinement Formation appeared, directly trapping Zhong Qing and Hei Bai within it.

"If you know what's good for you, quickly hand over your Storage Pouch. Perhaps if I'm happy, I might even spare your life."

"Otherwise..."

"Hehe, this place will be your burial ground!"

These people were from Snow Cold Mountain, Fuguang Cave.

This force was a notorious group of bandit Cultivators and thieves within a thousand-li radius.

They set up a large Formation here, then lured passing travelers or deceived others into coming.

As long as the target entered the large Formation, they were like prey falling into a trap.

How many hundreds or thousands of people had they killed using this Formation?

Zhong Qing looked at the men, whose smiles were extremely perverse.

He said indifferently, "Are you sure this low-level Formation can hold me?"

These words displeased the men.

"Low-level Formation?"

"You bumpkin, do you know what kind of Formation this is?"

"This is the Two Extremes Illusionary Killing Great Formation!"

"It was personally set up by our Cave Master, who invited a master to do so."

"Unless one is an Earth Profound Realm expert, there is no way to get out of this Great Formation?"

"What class are you? How dare you call this a low-level Formation?"

"A bumpkin like you, have you ever seen such a high-quality Great Formation?"

As the agitated men spoke, their pupils suddenly constricted, and their expressions were instantly shocked.

As if they had seen the most incredible sight in this world.
