Mysterious Spirit Mountain Range covers a vast area. Within the mountain range, Mystic Beasts roam freely, and any martial artist who steps here does so with great caution. Otherwise, one moment you may be full of life, and the next, you could be lying lifeless among the grass and trees. 0
 
After Aotian and Xiao Ya purchased the Mysterious Iron Plate in the trading area, they hurriedly made their way to the Mysterious Spirit Mountain Range. 0
 
At this moment, Aotian and Xiao Ya stood side by side beneath a large tree, facing a giant beast that was entirely black as ink. 0
 
The beast stood about ten feet tall and resembled a monkey. However, it had a sharp horn between its brows that glimmered with a chilling light under the sunlight. 0
 
Neither Aotian nor Xiao Ya seemed worried about this First-Level Beast. The former even smiled lightly and said: 0
 
“Do you want to go first or should I?” 0
 
Xiao Ya glanced at the giant beast and then shook her head disinterestedly, sitting cross-legged under the tree, clearly not intending to get involved in this matter. 0
 
The giant beast seemed to understand the disdain these two humans had for it. Suddenly, an ear-piercing roar erupted from its mouth. 0
 
Then, the sharp horn pointed directly at Aotian, and a jet-black beam shot out from it, as if tearing through the air, descending upon Aotian. 0
 
Looking at the black beam flying toward him, Aotian smiled lightly. He then slowly extended a finger and gently pointed at the incoming beam. 0
 
“Star Point Finger!” 0
 
At that moment, Aotian's finger transformed into a small star, and a silver beam shot forth from his fingertip, resembling starlight and filled with an overwhelming aura. 0
 
The size of the Silver Beam was far smaller than that of the black beam emitted by the beast. However, when the two collided, the Silver Beam pierced through the black beam as if it were tearing through paper and passed right above the giant beast's horn. 0
 
A hole the size of a finger was left on the giant beast's forehead, with blood gushing out continuously. 0
 
The expression in the beast's eyes grew dimmer; its vitality gradually faded away until it finally collapsed to the ground in defeat. 0
 
“What an impressive martial art!” Seeing the giant beast fall, Xiao Ya couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. 0
 
 
Aotian smiled lightly, feeling a stir in his heart. 0
 
The Star Point Finger was awarded to Aotian when he won the Aotian Family Annual Meeting championship. 0
 
According to Aotian, the Star Point Finger is one of the most advanced martial arts in the Aojia, ranking among the mid-tier martial arts. 0
 
However, Aotian knew that the power of the Star Point Finger could rival even some high-tier martial arts. 0
 
Moreover, Aotian always felt that something was missing from the Star Point Finger, though he couldn't pinpoint what it was. Yet, he had a premonition that if he could discover what the Star Point Finger lacked, its power would truly soar. 0
 
Then Aotian took out a crystal about the size of a soybean from the head of the giant beast, with immense energy swirling within it. 0
 
This was the source of power within the Mystic Beast—Mystic Pill! 0
 
The most valuable part of the Mystic Beast was not its flesh or bones but this Mystic Pill. According to Aotian's estimation, this Mystic Pill could sell for at least three hundred Mysterious Origin Stones. 0
 
Although three hundred Mysterious Origin Stones were not significant in Aotian's eyes, even a small mosquito is still meat, right? Thus, Aotian placed the Mystic Pill into his Storage Ring, planning to sell it after arriving at Mystic Spirit Town. 0
 
"Aotian!" Suddenly, Xiao Ya looked at Aotian with a serious expression and said. 0
 
"Uncle Xiaoya, what's wrong?" Aotian asked in confusion. 0
 
"Do you know what is the most dangerous thing in the Mysterious Spirit Mountain Range?" Xiao Ya asked. 0
 
Aotian pondered for a moment and replied: 0
 
"Humans!" 0
 
"Oh?!" A flash of surprise crossed Xiao Ya's eyes. 0
 
 
"No matter where it is, humanity is always the most dangerous creature. The Mystic Beasts in the Mysterious Spirit Mountain Range, although terrifying in strength, are mostly just brutes. When they see humans, they rush forward with loud roars, but humans are different..." 0
 
The astonishment in Xiao Ya's eyes deepened. 0
 
"Human nature is the hardest to gauge. Perhaps they present one face on the surface while hiding another underneath. Therefore, unless you have extreme trust in someone, you should never easily believe them!" Aotian said calmly. 0
 
Having spent three years as a useless person, Aotian had gained profound insights into human nature. 0
 
Xiao Ya nodded appreciatively and said, "That's right. So in the Mysterious Spirit Mountain Range, we must be cautious not only of the Mystic Beasts but also of other warriors. After all, there are plenty of people in this world who wish to kill and plunder." 0
 
Aotian's eyes also flashed with a hint of seriousness: "Yes, Uncle Xiaoya, I understand!" 0
 
"Alright, it's getting late. Let's rest here for the night and continue our journey tomorrow..." 0
 
On a thick tree branch, Aotian lay gently, his fingers rubbing a piece of iron plate. The iron plate felt icy to the touch, and apart from that, Aotian sensed nothing unusual. 0
 
This iron plate was what Aotian had purchased for fifty thousand Mysterious Origin Stones in the trading area. 0
 
Aotian looked at the iron plate in his hand with a slight frown. Then a surge of Soul Power flowed out from between his brows and reached toward the iron plate. 0
 
"Bang!" 0
 
As soon as his Soul Power made contact with the iron plate, it was completely repelled. This caused Aotian's expression to darken. 0
 
Could it be that those fifty thousand Mysterious Origin Stones were wasted? Was this iron plate actually just an ordinary item? 0
 
 
Thinking of this, Aotian couldn't help but curse fiercely. Immediately, a surge of Transformation Technique erupted from his Dantian and gathered in his right palm, seemingly intending to crush the iron plate in one go. 0
 
For Aotian, crushing an ordinary piece of iron was an easy task. However, the Mysterious Iron Plate remained intact in Aotian's hand, showing no signs of change in shape whatsoever. 0
 
"Damn it, what on earth is this thing?!" 0
 
Aotian angrily threw the iron plate down, causing the ground to crack with small fissures from the force of his throw. 0
 
Aotian knew that this iron plate must be Extraordinary; if it were an ordinary piece of iron, he could easily crush it. But now he couldn't damage it at all, which naturally indicated the Extraordinary nature of this Mysterious Iron Plate. 0
 
But what exactly was this iron plate? What was its purpose? Aotian had no idea, which only added to his frustration. 0
 
Nearby, Xiao Ya, lying on a pile of dry branches, shook her head helplessly upon seeing Aotian's actions and turned over to fall into a deep sleep. 0
 
Looking at the iron plate on the ground and recalling that he had spent fifty thousand Mysterious Origin Stones on it, a hint of reluctance appeared on Aotian's face. 0
 
He then stored the iron plate in his Storage Ring, praying in his heart that it would be of some use to him... 0
 
Time slowly passed, and soon a night had gone by. 0
 
When the first rays of sunlight touched Aotian's face in the morning, a startling voice suddenly reached his ears: 0
 
"Help!" 0
 
Aotian pushed off from the tree trunk and lightly landed on the ground. 0
 
"It seems someone is calling for help?" Aotian said with a frown. 0
 
"Shall we go take a look?" Xiao Ya asked Aotian, clearly having heard the cry for help as well. 0
 
 
"Well, it sounds like it's not far from here. Let's go take a look..." 0
 
Wang Shuiqun was having a particularly bad day. He had entered the Mysterious Spirit Mountain Range with an Adventure Team, hoping to explore a place that had recently been buzzing with activity. Little did he know that they would encounter three First-Level Beasts at the same time. 0
 
As a result, all the members of the Adventure Team were slaughtered by two of the First-Level Beasts. Wang Shuiqun managed to escape momentarily due to his Innate Fivefold cultivation and peculiar movement technique, but the three First-Level Beasts relentlessly pursued him, putting him in a precarious situation. 0
 
Suddenly, a flash of claws swept by, and Wang Shuiqun felt a sharp pain as his back was slashed, bright red blood gushing out uncontrollably. 0
 
This strike caused Wang Shuiqun to stumble in his escape. Seizing the opportunity, another Mystic Beast swung its tail fiercely at Wang Shuiqun's chest. 0
 
In an instant, he coughed up a mouthful of blood and was sent flying far away, his face turning extremely pale and his eyes dimming. Clearly gravely injured, he no longer had the strength to continue fleeing. 0
 
At that moment, another First-Level Beast, as agile as a leopard, lunged forward, its massive paw aimed directly at the top of Wang Shuiqun's head. 0
 
If that paw came down, it would likely mean the end for Wang Shuiqun... 0
