Who is it?

The next morning!

Bai Ling woke up in the cave.

The first thing she saw was the Scarecrow guarding her side.

This made her lips curve into an unconscious smile.

Although the Scarecrow couldn't speak, he guarded her every day, come rain or shine.

In her heart, he had already risen to the status of an important partner.

She looked up at the sky.

"It's getting late, we should set off!"

After a simple tidying up, the two went straight out of the Immortal Cave.

Bai Ling was in front, with the Scarecrow following closely behind her.

After walking less than half a li.

Bai Ling's gaze suddenly froze.

In her perception, not far ahead, a treasure light was blooming.

She was not unfamiliar with that brilliant glow.

Because any treasure that reached a certain level, even if just placed there, could emit a certain fluctuation and radiance.

Over this period, she had encountered such a scene more than once or twice.

She followed the direction from which the treasure light emanated.

On the ground, a small flag lay quietly!

This was the Water Flag among the Five Elements Flags!

It was a true Wang-level Divine Weapon!

Bai Ling picked up the treasure, her expression a little strange.

This was not the first time she had picked up a treasure.

The key was that each time, the grade of the treasure she found was not low.

"What exactly is going on?"

Bai Ling looked blankly at the sky.

If it happened once or twice, it could be explained by luck, but the treasures she had picked up during this period could almost fill a Storage Pouch.

This could no longer be explained by luck.

However, no matter how much she racked her brain, she couldn't figure out that all these things were thrown by the Scarecrow.

In any case, finding treasures was ultimately a pleasant thing.

Bai Ling quickly suppressed the doubts in her heart; after all, it wasn't the first time.

She continued to lead the Scarecrow towards their destination.

Fearing that flying through the air would attract too much attention, Bai Ling and the Scarecrow traveled on foot, concealing their cultivation.

Amidst the vast mountains, snowflakes drifted, and a cold wind whistled.

The two traversed mountains and rivers, climbed peaks, and crossed rocks.

Their speed was not slow.

However, amidst the long wind and snow, her graceful figure appeared somewhat frail.

Although Bai Ling's cultivation was not weak, this terrain was somewhat special.

The temperature in the mountains gave her a bone-chilling coldness.

"Scarecrow, are you cold?"

Finally, she stopped and asked the Scarecrow.

However, the Scarecrow gave no response.

Bai Ling was already used to this.

She thought for a moment, then took out a piece of clothing from her Storage Pouch.

She draped it over the Scarecrow's body.

This long robe, entirely green, was a magical garment that could ward off cold and heat, and was impervious to water and fire.

It was a specially made uniform of the Qing Mo of the North Demon Cave's Eight Sects.

When Bai Ling managed to escape from the North Demon Cave, besides having a benefactor's help, her skill in disguise also played a huge role.

This garment was originally something she had prepared for her own disguise, but now placed on the Scarecrow, it was quite suitable.

Afterward, Bai Ling took out a Mimic Stone and placed it on the Scarecrow.

This stone carried the Qi of the Qing Mo.

Her idea was simple: if experts from the North Demon Cave came knocking and they truly couldn't be resisted or escaped, the concealment provided by this clothing and Mimic Stone could give the Scarecrow a sliver of hope for escape.

Although the Scarecrow was not a living being.

But in her eyes, he had long become a partner with whom she could share life and death.

Bai Ling did not want the Scarecrow to suffer any harm.

"Alright, let's go!"

After changing the Scarecrow's equipment, Bai Ling also put on a long robe for herself.

After discerning their direction, the two set off again.

Thorns were everywhere ahead.

Just like the path Bai Ling had to take, it was full of hardships!

This path might be very difficult, but as long as there was life, the journey would not end.

No matter how difficult, as long as she had a breath left, Bai Ling would continue steadfastly.

...

Let's talk about two different things!

In the entire Extreme North Land!

The North Demon Cave has always been a symbol of transcendence.

It was a colossal existence!

It was no exaggeration to say that if the North Demon Cave moved, the entire Extreme North Land would tremble three times.

As one of the most powerful forces in the Northern Region.

The North Demon Cave was undoubtedly a towering mountain pressing down on the heads of countless Cultivators.

Only now, this great mountain was permeated with a stifling atmosphere.

North Demon Hall!

This was the center of the North Demon Cave.

It was also where the high-ranking officials gathered for discussions.

The majestic hall was nearly a hundred zhang tall, seemingly reaching into the clouds.

The entire hall's exterior resembled a skull.

And in the center of the hall, the leaders of the North Demon Cave's Seven Sects were gathered!

Originally, the North Demon Cave had eight sects!

However, with Bai Ling's Bloodline Awakening, the White Demon lineage was jointly besieged by the other sects.

Since then, the White Demon lineage had been completely removed from the list.

The Eight Sects were changed to Seven Sects.

The Seven Sects were named after red, orange, red, green, Qing, blue, and purple respectively.

Among them, the Crimson Demon was subtly revered!

The leader of the Crimson Demon was a burly old man.

He was eight feet tall, with a broad back and strong shoulders, white hair like a crane's, and a youthful complexion, dressed in a crimson long robe, with the character 'red' prominently displayed on his chest!

This was the uniform of the Crimson Demon.

The other Six Sects were no different.

The Qing Demon wore green robes, the Crimson Devil lineage wore red robes...

On their chests, the unique emblem of their respective sect was imprinted.

At this moment, the leader of the Crimson Demon was playing with two jade beads the size of fists!

His cultivation was unfathomably deep, his eyes as profound as the sea, and his gaze swept over everyone present.

"Everyone, that girl Bai Ling has reappeared."

"Just a little girl, yet she can continuously cause us to lose soldiers and generals."

"Just last night, the life tablet of Seventh Elder of my Crimson Demon shattered, and the elites who went with him on this trip were buried along with him."

"What do you think of this situation?"

Clearly, this gathering of the Seven Sects' leaders focused on Bai Ling.

As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the Qing Demon said loudly, "With that little girl's strength, any expert in the Three Yin Realm is enough to easily capture her."

"But among our several sects, we have sent no less than twenty Three Yin Realm experts, yet they all perished on the way to kill her."

"In my opinion, someone must be protecting her."

"With her own strength, it's impossible for her to accomplish all of this."

This view was met with unanimous agreement from everyone.

They had watched Bai Ling grow up since she was a child.

This girl had talent, and her potential was terrifyingly high.

But as for her strength?

In their opinion, it was just average.

Aside from someone protecting her, there was no explanation for how she could cause their North Demon Cave's sects to suffer such losses.

"Who dares to oppose our North Demon Cave?"

"Do you have any clues?"

Another leader frowned and asked.

"Among those we sent, there were experts of Three Yin First, Second, and even Third Stage."

"To kill these people, especially to annihilate them so thoroughly that they couldn't even send back a message, ordinary people couldn't do it."

"The opponent should be a Three Yang Realm expert."

"And not an ordinary Three Yang Realm."

"At least, not someone who just entered Three Yang Realm."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts were slightly moved.

Experts of the Three Yang Realm were rare, even in the North Demon Cave.

Looking at the entire Northern Region, there wouldn't be many with such cultivation.

"Could it be that the Fu Wang Palace, Heavenly God Mountain, or Flying Immortal Gate, one of these three sects, has intervened?"

In the Northern Region, there were a total of Four Transcendent Powers.

Fu Wang Palace, Heavenly God Mountain, Flying Immortal Gate, and even the North Demon Cave.

These Four Transcendent Powers had dominated the entire Northern Region for countless years, like four great mountains, pressing down on the heads of billions of Cultivators.

Transcendent and high above.
