When Bai Che woke up, he didn't know how much time had passed.
What appeared in front of him was still white snow, and it was still a snow-capped mountain, but it was obviously not the second snow-capped mountain.
There was some strange paste-like substance smeared on the wounds on his body, and it smelled of a strong herbal scent.
Beside Bai Che, there were several snow snakes and snow wolves guarding him, which made Bai Che a little surprised.
He recalled the moment before he fainted, as if a snow wolf had taken him away to prevent him from being swallowed by the terrible avalanche.
"Did you save me?" Bai Che asked with some surprise as he looked at Snow Wolf and Snow Snake.
"You killed the Gu Eagle, which can be regarded as gaining a future for us. Therefore, we will naturally not let you be swallowed by an avalanche. We are not as despicable as you humans." A snow snake next to it replied. Its body was very big. Big, similar in appearance to Bai Lin: "However, we will not take you as our leader, and the Snow Mountain will not welcome you. You can leave the Snow Mountain after you have cultivated yourself."
Bai Che remained silent. Snow snakes and snow wolves were wild beasts after all, and it was their nature to pursue freedom. Naturally, it was impossible for them to sincerely surrender to a human being.
"The previous leader of the snow snake was my father. You gave it the name Bailin. It liked it very much. Therefore, from now on, Bailin will be the name passed down from generation to generation for the leader of our snow snake group." The snow snake said.
"Your father is very brave and a qualified leader." After hearing what the snow snake said, Bai Che said.
"I will also be a good leader." The snow snake said with confidence.
After a pause, the snow snake continued: "I guess you are from over there. You can get there by climbing over the last snow mountain. After the death of the Gu Eagle, the barrier it set has collapsed, so, you It’s easy to get there.”
"Over there..." Bai Che's eyes moved slightly. He had heard the word "over there" many times, but Bai Che didn't know what "over there" specifically was.
Now, he has realized the "power of the sword" and defeated the Gu Eagle, but there is no sign of returning to the original world. It is necessary for him to go there to explore the situation and look for clues.
"The carrion-eating eagle will take you to fly over the snow-capped mountains. After you change the medicine and have a good rest, leave. From now on, we will live in the snow-capped mountains with peace of mind and will never take the initiative to attack humans again. Of course, the snow-capped mountains here are also Humans are not welcome." After saying this, the snow snake left a few herbs and twisted away, as did the other snow wolves and snow snakes.
Gradually, it disappeared from Bai Che's sight, leaving only long traces on the snow. Not far away, a carrion eagle waited silently.
"Do you have to go 'over there' to go back?" Bai Che murmured to himself, "What is over there? Is it a mountain, a sea, or the chasm in my dream?"
Bai Che had no answer. He chewed the herbs and applied it on the wounds on his body, and then covered the wounds with some cloth strips. In this way, Bai Che's wounds did not appear too serious.
After recovering for a moment, Bai Che came to the carrion eagle waiting for him.
When the carrion eagle saw Bai Che, its eyes were a little strange, but it still squatted down and motioned for Bai Che to sit on it. It wanted to take Bai Che to the top of the seventh snow mountain.
Bai Che didn't show any pretense and sat on the back of the carrion eagle. Then, the carrion eagle smoothly rose into the air and flew towards the top of the seventh snow mountain.
The survivors of the snow snake, snow wolf, carrion eagle, and white ape species all breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Bai Che leave. After bowing respectfully to Bai Che, they went to stay with their companions. .
They will next divide their respective spheres of influence and discuss how to get along with each other in the future.
...
Bai Che sat quietly on the back of the carrion eagle, looking forward to "over there" while regretting not saving the white bear leader in time.
Now, the second snow mountain has completely collapsed, and the leader of the white bear may be buried in the snow.
The carrion eagle is not very fast. Firstly, there is a person sitting on it, which affects its speed. Secondly, it needs to take care of this human being. It would be embarrassing if it falls and dies.
It was precisely because of this that Bai Che could see everything clearly on the snow.
"Wait a minute." Suddenly, Bai Che's eyes moved and he said, "Go down."
"What's wrong?" the Scavenging Sculpture asked curiously.
"Going down, I think I saw the leader of the white bear." Bai Che replied.
The carrion-eating eagle was a little hesitant. Its mission was to send humans to the top of the seventh snow mountain, but now there was an interruption in the middle. Isn't this a waste of time?
It also wants to go back and lay eggs with my wife as soon as possible.
"Go down, if it delays your time, I will go to the seventh snow mountain by myself." Bai Che's voice suddenly raised the pitch, which made the carrion-eating eagle tremble.
So, the carrion-eating eagle nodded repeatedly. This human was a terrifying existence that killed the Gu eagle. How could it dare to disobey?
After a while, the carrion sculpture landed firmly on the place where the second snow mountain collapsed, leaving a mess.
Bai Che looked towards the place he had overlooked. The ground was bright red, and a bear covered in blood was walking slowly, bleeding as he walked.
Bai Che knew that this was the white bear leader, but because of his injuries, his white fur was dyed blood red.
"White Bear." Bai Che shouted loudly.
The bear was obviously startled when he heard this. He slowly turned around and saw Bai Che.
It was the leader of the white bear.
"Human?" The white bear leader's expression changed slightly: "Are you still alive?"
"Of course he's still alive." Bai Che walked up to the white bear leader, looked at the white bear leader, and said, "Your injury..."
"I'm fine. I was just trapped in the snow when the mountain collapsed and my stomach was pierced by a piece of ice." The white bear leader replied.
"You call it okay?" Bai Che was stunned. Good guy, what's the difference between this and a knife stabbing into the abdomen?
"It's okay, I have rough skin and thick flesh. This little injury..." Suddenly, the white bear leader's eyes moved, and he became furious: "How dare you, a beast like you, appear in front of me and give me a slap?" Shoot you to death..."
With that said, the white bear leader patted the carrion eagle.
The carrion eagle was startled and flapped its wings to leave. Bai Che was also shocked, but he soon understood the reason for the white bear leader's rage, so Bai Che repeatedly stopped him: "White bear, white bear, wait, wait, wait, Calm down first..."
It took a lot of effort for Bai Che to get the white bear leader to stop.
The leader of the white bear looked at Bai Che suspiciously and said, "Human, why are you with it?"
"Listen to me..." Next, Bai Che told the white bear leader what happened before.
"The Gu Eagle is dead, okay, okay. My fellow members, Old White Ape, your souls in heaven can rest in peace." The leader of the white bear suddenly burst into tears.
Bai Che quietly asked the carrion eagle to leave, otherwise, if the white bear leader thought of something else, he would not be able to guarantee its safety.
The carrion eagle nodded, flapped its wings and left.
After a while, the leader of the white bear bowed deeply to Bai Che and said: "Human, thank you for killing the Gu Eagle. Please accept my bow."
Bai Che helped the white bear leader up and said, "It's a small matter, but killing the Gu Eagle is also for myself."
The white bear leader nodded and said, "Human, what are your plans next? Are you ready to go 'over there'?"
"'Over there'..." Bai Che frowned slightly and asked, "You are all talking about 'over there', but what exactly is 'over there'?"
"You're not from 'over there'?" This time, it was the white bear leader's turn to be surprised.
Looking at Bai Che's expression, which didn't look like he was lying, the leader of the White Bear said: "Actually, I don't know much about 'over there'. I only know that there are male passes, there are natural chasms, and there are humans and strange beasts over there. Wait for different races to live behind Xiongguan."
"Where is the natural chasm?" Bai Che's eyes moved slightly, and his intuition told him that this natural chasm was not simple.
"The natural moat..." The white bear leader shook his head and said, "I don't know much about this either. I only know that there seem to be some terrifying creatures in this natural moat, and all the races behind the pass are fighting against them."
"And..." The White Bear leader lowered his voice and said, "I suspect that the Saint Ancestor mentioned by the Gu Diao came from Tianqi."
Hearing this, Bai Che was shocked. The Saint Ancestor mentioned by Gu Diao was undoubtedly the Demon Clan. If the Demon Clan came from the Tianqi, then the Tianqi was the Demon Clan's lair or the place where the Demon Clan must pass before coming?
Is the chasm the boundary of the continent?
Bai Che nodded, indicating that he knew what was going on.
After a pause, Bai Che said, "As you said, I am indeed interested in 'there' and I plan to go there. What are your plans in the future? Will you go with me?"
The leader of the white bear shook his head and said: "I don't plan to leave the snow mountain yet. What's more, the situation 'over there' is unclear, and I don't know the attitude 'over there' towards us, so I don't plan to go there for the time being."
Bai Che nodded, expressing his understanding. There is nothing wrong with being cautious.
"Then you can go and live with them." Bai Che pointed at the back of the carrion eagle in the distance and said, "Now, snow snakes, snow wolves, white apes, and carrion eagles gather together and live together. You go , they will definitely accept you..."
"No." The white bear leader shook his head, and then explained: "I know, but I don't want to go. I want to practice in this mountain, and when I become as strong as you, I will go 'over there' to see it."
"Cultivation..." Bai Che's eyes moved slightly and said: "You guys really know about cultivation, but cultivation requires spiritual energy. However, the spiritual energy in this world is so thin that it's almost... hmm? How could it be? ?”
Bai Che's expression suddenly changed and he seemed surprised.
"Have you noticed?" The leader of the white bear smiled and said: "Since the second snow mountain collapsed, there has been a few traces of spiritual aura in the air, and this aura is getting stronger and stronger."
Bai Che nodded and said: "Perhaps, there are spiritual veins sealed under these snow-capped mountains. After the snow-capped mountains collapsed, the spiritual veins revived and the spiritual energy gradually spread."
"I think so too." The white bear leader nodded, "I plan to find some spiritual veins. If I find them, I plan to practice there. Human being, will you go with me?"
Hearing this, Bai Che was moved, but he still shook his head and said, "I'd better go 'over there' as soon as possible."
It has been about ten years since he came to this secret realm, and no one knows how much time has passed in the real world.
Has the devil been born? Are Drunkard, Liu Yu, and Piaoxue okay?
He must go back as soon as possible.
"That's fine." The leader of the white bear did not hold back, because it knew that Bai Che would not belong to this sky only. "I have nothing to leave you. This drop of blood contains the secret technique I have learned. You can Keep it."
With that said, the leader of the white bear took out a drop of his heart's blood and injected it into the center of Bai Che's eyebrows.
"You are..." Bai Che was a little surprised.
"It's okay." The leader of the white bear was obviously a little weaker. "Compared to what you have done, what I have done is nothing. I will be fine after a few days of rest."
"It's not polite to come back and not reciprocate." Bai Che said, "I have a breathing method here, which may be beneficial to you."
Bai Che didn't wait for the leader of the white bear to refuse, so he told the leader of the "Taiyan Tuna" formula. After the leader of the white bear heard it, he felt magical and thanked him repeatedly.
After staying for a while, Bai Che was ready to leave.
The white bear leader said: "Human, I still don't know your name for so long. Can you tell me?"
"Bai Che." Bai Che smiled.
"Bai Che?" The leader of the White Bear murmured, thoughtfully, and then said: "From now on, I will be called Bai Man, brother Bai Che. I hope we have a chance to see you again in the future."
"Okay." Bai Che smiled and said, "Brother Baiman, I also hope that you can understand it as soon as possible and go 'over there' to take a look."
