"Damn it, this beast is really relentless."
Qin Yang's thoughts sank, his eyes grew icy as he spoke.
Sword flight demanded immense spiritual power from him at the moment, with every breath depleting large amounts, and he also had to deal with the Silver Horn Leopard's attacks from behind.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Midway through the canyon, behind Qin Yang, the Silver Horn Leopard's body surged with demonic power, condensing into spheres of white light.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The white spheres flew toward Qin Yang like streams of light.
Qin Yang's expression turned cold, his divine sense flared from his brow, his feet rapidly stepped on the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword, evading and maneuvering in the air. The white spheres, filled with potent demonic power, narrowly missed him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Each white sphere slammed into the solid walls of the canyon, then exploded, blasting countless fragments from the cliff face.
Rumble! Rumble!
Huge rocks crumbled from the cliff face, crashing heavily onto the canyon floor, echoing thunderously throughout the chasm.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Qin Yang flew ahead on his sword, while the Silver Horn Leopard galloped through the void, chasing relentlessly, continuously launching white spheres at him.
"Could it be that I guessed wrong, and this beast isn't afraid of entering this canyon at all?"
The relentless pursuit by the Silver Horn Leopard made Qin Yang's face turn grim as he thought.
Is there no choice but to fight this beast head-on?
However, the chances of victory were extremely slim. Using up all the jade talismans, all the elixirs, perhaps even self-destructing his lifebound weapon might injure the Silver Horn Leopard slightly, but killing it was unrealistic.
Ultimately, it was a matter of strength disparity; after all, there was indeed a significant gap between him and the Foundation Establishment stage Silver Horn Leopard.
Yet, before entering this Penglai Immortal Island, he had a fleeting sense that on this island, he might have fortune in store.
Cultivators have an intangible sense of their own fate and fortune, but this sense is as elusive as a sixth sense and not necessarily accurate.
Otherwise, in the cruel immortal cultivation world, there wouldn't be so many cultivators perishing.
"This time, this canyon might actually be my place of demise."
Qin Yang felt a heaviness in his heart, stepping on the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword.
The path of cultivation is inherently an act against the heavens, and perishing along the way is all too normal.
Just as Qin Yang's heart grew heavy, a chilling sensation swept over from the front of the canyon.
By now, Qin Yang and the Silver Horn Leopard had ventured halfway through the canyon. Moss-covered rock walls were now bare.
Several kilometers ahead in Qin Yang's view, towering hundred-meter rock walls were coated with ice, chilling and solid.
The ice clung to each side of the cliffs, covering the entire wall, far in the distance, appearing majestic and awe-inspiring, the ice layer glinting with a faint icy-blue light.
Whoosh~!
A moment later, Qin Yang flew into the canyon, as if entering a glacial world, a biting cold overwhelmed him.
"So cold."
Qin Yang's expression slightly froze; as a cultivator, he actually felt piercing cold upon entering here.
Just as Qin Yang entered this icy glacier world,
The speed of the Silver Horn Leopard clearly faltered, its eyes filled with deep apprehension as it gazed into the depths of the glacier.
However, in that brief moment, Qin Yang widened the gap by over a thousand meters.
"Roar~!"
Upon seeing this, the Silver Horn Leopard let out an enraged roar, galloping on air, and continued its pursuit.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With frenzied surges of demonic power around it, white spheres rapidly formed, shooting toward Qin Yang like light beams.
"That beast just won't give up!"
Qin Yang's face turned cold as he maneuvered the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword, dodging the demonic-powered white spheres.
Bang bang bang!
The white spheres shot towards the cliffs, then exploded on the icy layers.
Surprisingly to Qin Yang, despite the powerful blasts, the ice layers didn't shatter but only left fine crack patterns at their centers.
"Such a hard ice layer!"
Qin Yang's gaze sharpened, unable to suppress his amazement.
The Silver Horn Leopard's white spheres were incredibly powerful, and if they hit Qin Yang, he'd be severely injured. Yet the ice layers only bore slight fractures.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
As Qin Yang and the Silver Horn Leopard pursued deeper into the glacial canyon, the chill intensified.
Immediately, Qin Yang activated the Star Body, enveloping his body in a thin layer of starlight, dispersing much of the icy chill.
"What on earth is within the depths of this canyon? Why is it so cold here?"
Qin Yang gazed solemnly into the canyon's depths.
He was now nearing the canyon's end, and in his view, several kilometers ahead, no cliff walls were standing with ice anymore.
Whoosh!
Qin Yang, stepping on the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword, darted out of the glacial canyon.
His view broadened; an even colder chill greeted him.
Before him lay a vast icy plain, covered with thick ice, reflecting a chilling icy-blue light.
"The canyon's end is an icy plain?"
Qin Yang felt a touch of surprise, yet the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword beneath him did not slow, swiftly heading forward.
"This icy plain must be nearing the end of Penglai Immortal Island."
Qin Yang thought to himself.
"Roar~!"
Seeing Qin Yang still racing ahead, the Silver Horn Leopard roared angrily, its eyes growing increasingly pale, a hint of red glinting on its snowy fur, as demonic power surged through its limbs, greatly accelerating its speed.
"This is bad, the beast is going all out, even invoking its bloodline power!"
Qin Yang's face turned icy. After swallowing two Primordial Spirit Pills, he fully controlled the Jade-handled Dragon Roar Sword.
Whoosh!
Qin Yang darted even faster, yet the gap between him and the bloodline-powered Silver Horn Leopard closed by the hundreds with each passing moment.
"Damn it, am I really supposed to fight head-on with this beast?"
Qin Yang's eyes flashed with cold intent; even though he knew he was outmatched, he would never surrender passively.
Whoosh!
At that moment, in front of the icy plain, a massive transparent light screen came into Qin Yang's view.
The huge transparent screen stretched beyond sight, its outline resembling an enormous inverted bowl.
"This is a... space barrier?!"
Qin Yang stared at the massive screen, his eyes narrowing sharply.
