Yin Banshuang knew that the ancient martial art practitioners gathered in the beast lair were not just those from Cropped Top Mountain. There were hundreds of sects gathered this time. In order to obtain the treasures in the beast lair, many of the sects were giving it their all. Therefore, in the fourth and fifth level, it was very easy to bump into some powerful ancient martial art practitioners.

In the distance, some ancient martial art practitioners were currently battling it out with two monstrous beasts. The two monstrous beasts were both very strong. One of them was even comparable to the Snow Leopard King that they had met in the second layer. The beasts were fighting seven people standing in a line; they were all of the Golden Elixir realm. Despite their presence, it was still a one-sided battle in favor of the monstrous beasts.

“Such an environment is disadvantageous to humans,” Mo Wen said pensively as he watched the battle from a distance. The seven ancient martial art practitioners did not seem to be able to handle the two monstrous beasts, and it did not seem as though they would be able to deal with just one-Seventh level monstrous beast of the intermediate stage. Under normal circumstances, even if the level of the monstrous beast was high, they should not be so easily defeated.

“You are right. In the beast lair, an ancient martial art practitioner’s willpower is put to the test.” Naturally, Yin Banshuang knew what Mo Wen was talking about. Other than being faced with the two monstrous beasts, the ancient martial art practitioners still had to withstand the frightening cold that was all around. Some people with weaker willpower would feel their body shiver so much that they would not be able to unleash their full battle prowess.

The monstrous beasts in the beast lair had an advantage here. They had been living in such an environment for a very long time so would have been acclimatized to it.

“Let’s go, don’t bother about those people,” Yin Banshuang said calmly. It was needless to say but those few ancient martial art practitioners had likely gotten their hands on some treasure. If not, they would not be chased down by the monstrous beasts like that. Although there were many treasures in the beast lair, some of the more important ones would mostly have the protection of the monstrous beasts. If ancient martial art practitioners wanted to obtain them, they would have to fight it out with those monstrous beasts. Therefore, ancient martial arts practitioners offending the monstrous beasts was a very common sight.

To Yin Banshuang, none of the treasures had the vital Qi that moved her. A sect like Five Beasts Sect possessed too many treasures. She would not even give a second glance to treasures that other sects would rave about and risk their lives for.

Mo Wen was not interested either. There were really a lot of treasures in the beast lair. Along the way, he had encountered quite a number of spiritual herbs and mysterious ores. However, some of the true treasures were mostly in the dangerous areas and he did not have the time or energy to even think about them. He was also prioritizing the vital Qi.

“My two friends, please lend us a helping hand. We are people from Xingyi Sect and we will repay you generously afterward.” Although the ancient martial art practitioners were in a battle with the monstrous beasts, they could also sense Mo Wen and Yin Banshuang’s presence. One of them immediately opened his mouth to ask for help, understanding that they would get out of their bind through uniting with others.

“Xingyi Sect.” Upon hearing that, Mo Wen looked over. Xingyi Sect was one of the Eight Major Influences in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension and the controlling power of one of the districts. Although it was ranked after Intentionless Sect and was of the mid to lower range amongst the Eight Major Influences, being able to become the head of a district took a certain level of capabilities.

Yin Banshuang was expressionless and did even reply. She simply turned and left. Mo Wen was not one to stick his nose into the business of others and so also turned to leave.

“We are all humans. Why do the two of you have to be so heartless?” The person who had spoken saw their reaction. His expression changed slightly and his voice turned colder.

“You had better not offend me.” Yin Banshuang glanced over coldly. Continuing to mind her own business she walked away in a different direction. Xingyi Sect was a major sect. Their presence in the beast lair this time meant they definitely had a trump card in their hands. They were not utilizing it at the moment simply for fear of wasting it.

“Let’s run in that direction.” One of the ancient martial art practitioners from Xingyi Sect let out a cold humph. Then, he changed the direction in which he was running so that he was heading towards Mo Wen and Yin Banshuang. He knew that the monstrous beast would not be able to judge if someone was of Xingyi Sect. The moment the two groups of people gathered, the two newcomers would be dragged into the fight with them. They would have to help even if they did not want to.

The other ancient martial arts practitioners One by one, they all changed their directions and ran towards the two of them. The people of Xingyi Sect were all well-versed in Qinggong. They traveled at very fast speeds and even after battling with the monstrous beasts for such a long time had not incurred any fatalities.

“Looking for death!” This low-handed plan of Xingyi Sect to drag them down together immediately angered Yin Banshuang. Instead of retreating, she headed right at that group of people from Xingyi Sect. Upon seeing her do so, the people from Xingyi Sect were elated. They had been worried that if Mo Wen and Yin Banshuang had decided to escape they would not be able to quickly catch up with them. However, it seemed as though their worries had been unfounded. They could now also see that the youths were even younger than they had thought.

Then, before the joy of the Xingyi Sect people had even receded, a frightening white stretch of silk descended from the sky, directly knocking into one of the Xingyi Sect ancient martial art practitioners. He had not expected it and was immediately sent flying.

“You’re crazy!” One of the Sect Elders of Xingyi Sect looked at Yin Banshuang furiously. This woman had attacked them. She was definitely insane. Did she not understand that internal strife between the human warriors right now would be doing the monstrous beasts a favor? They could well be entirely wiped out!

The people of Xingyi Sect had been so shameless because they assumed that the two of them had no choice but to collaborate with them. Moreover, they thought that they would not take their revenge immediately. After all, there were still two frightening monstrous beasts eyeing them with hostility. No matter what, they should get rid of the monstrous beasts first before doing anything.

They had never expected that Yin Banshuang would immediately attack them. Such action clearly was unbelievable and unreasonable. Out of impulse, she had put them all in danger.

The two monstrous beasts began to attack from behind. A terrifying power spun over and directly knocked into one of the ancient martial art practitioners from Xingyi Sect. The expression of the ancient martial art practitioner changed, and he quickly tried to dodge to one side. However, because of Yin Banshuang’s influence, his dodge had been delayed and the frightening power had brushed past his body, adding another injury.

Mo Wen’s mouth curled up into a cold smile. He took a step out and immediately traveled tens of meters. He dealt a punch to an ancient martial art practitioner from Xingyi Sect. The power reverberated around and they both retreated. However, the direction in which the ancient martial art practitioner from Xingyi Sect was retreating was the same direction that the monstrous beast was coming from.

“You are both crazy! Xingyi Sect no longer supports your power.” The Xingyi Sect ancient martial art practitioner began to struggle as though he had gone insane. He desperately wanted to break out from the strong force and change the direction that he was heading in. However, Mo Wen was no weaker than him and the Xingyi Sect member was unable to fight back, despite giving it his all.

It was alright if that woman had gone insane. He had not expected that the guy would also go crazy. What good was there in attacking their Xingyi Sect people? In the end, when the monstrous beasts killed them all, would the two of them be let off the hook?

The ancient martial art practitioner of Xingyi Sect knocked straight into the Seventh level monstrous beast of the intermediate stage. With meat delivered directly to him, the monstrous beast did not hold back. With a jump, he clawed at the ancient martial art practitioner, seriously injuring him. Then, he inhaled and with a curl of his tongue, sucked the body of the ancient martial art practitioner into his mouth. There was a crunching sound. The circumstances had now become absolutely terrifying.
