Deep within Changbai Mountain.
In Peach Grove Valley, lush greenery abounds, enveloped in Spiritual Qi!
Spirit Cloud drifts, peach blossoms bloom in profusion, and fragrance fills the air!
As the earth sent a "boom" sound, Jiang Che lying on the ground successfully turned over.
"Life is kind of boring!"
Looking at Nangong Luo, who was immersed in cultivation every day, Jiang Che teased Little Purple with his fluffy tail, his eyes fleetingly melancholic, feeling somewhat bored.
Unexpectedly, eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating isn't as joyful as imagined!
He was somewhat tired of it, probably needing a day or two to ease back into a state of lying flat.
"Chirp!"
Little Purple showed great interest in Jiang Che's tail.
As the thick tail moved up and down, Little Purple kept bouncing around, its four short legs flailing in the air, delighting immensely.
"I've got it, how about recruiting some followers?"
Jiang Che thought about the ferocious beasts currently living in Changbai Mountain.
All these ferocious beasts were drawn by the Bodhi Holy Tree, choosing to reside in Changbai Mountain, seeking the dense Spiritual Qi.
Jiang Che did not drive them away.
Recently, Jiang Che keenly noticed that several places within Changbai Mountain were suddenly filled with powerful auras.
He was quite familiar, similar to Nangong Luo, these were second-stage auras!
However, Nangong Luo was late in the second stage.
These ferocious beasts were merely at the early second stage.
Jiang Che immediately came to understand.
This should be some ferocious beasts successfully breaking through to the second stage, relying on the dense Spiritual Qi.
Bear in mind, we're still in the early stages of the Spiritual Energy Revival, and second-stage ferocious beasts are already considered rulers, capable of dominating an area!
To Jiang Che's view, these creatures all count as unstable elements within Changbai Mountain.
To prevent them from harming Changbai Mountain, a heavy fist must be used to strike them hard, preferably bringing them under control, and whip them daily.
Thinking so brings action without hesitation.
Jiang Che rose with a thundering movement, stepping out of the valley.
"Chirp!"
Little Purple promptly grabbed the owner's tail, flew into the air, jumped onto Jiang Che's back, and proudly cried.
"Little Purple, let's go!"
Jiang Che smiled at Little Purple clinging to his head, accelerated suddenly, leaving Peach Grove Valley in no time.
Changbai Mountain is vast, and Peach Grove Valley is located in the mountain's center. Jiang Che, recalling the location exposed when the second-stage ferocious beasts broke through, searched there.
Through fuzzy sensing, Jiang Che basically confirmed there should be five second-stage ferocious beasts other than him and Nangong Luo in Changbai Mountain.
These five second-stage ferocious beasts recently reached breakthroughs.
Jiang Che decided to go from near to far, starting with the closest place.
Actually, he didn't know whether those second-stage ferocious beasts were still active in that area, so he could only try looking.
Ten minutes passed.
Jiang Che had traversed through large forests, nearing his destination.
Suddenly, the sound of water flow reached from afar!
Jiang Che's tiger ears twitched, sensing the increasing water vapor around.
There should be a small river ahead!
Quickly heading forward, after overcoming a hill, Jiang Che's eyes brightened.
Below the mountain, a winding small river cut through the pine forest, fast flowing, and producing gurgling sounds!
Approaching the small river, Jiang Che observed the surroundings, not finding the second-stage ferocious beast.
However, Jiang Che wasn't anxious because he noticed the dense aura around the river indicated that the second-stage ferocious beast often operated in this area.
Reflecting a bit, Jiang Che started along the river path, searching.
Going against the water flow direction, Jiang Che reached the small river's end, seeing a grand waterfall in sight!
Thunderous!
Water flowed down from high, plunged into the deep pool below, water spray splashing, white waves rolling.
"Found you!"
Jiang Che smiled, looking at the white figure soaking in the deep pool.
It was a huge second-stage white bull, fully submerged in the water, eyes closed, tail swinging, seemingly enjoying itself.
Jiang Che chuckled mischievously, approached, and a weak lightning bolt struck the water's surface.
Crack!
The lightning instantly spread across the white bull's body, electric light dancing, covering its entire form.
Moo!
The severe pain hit, causing the white bull to open its eyes suddenly, crying out in pain, body trembling.
Just as it tried to move, it found its body numb, utterly uncontrollable!
Moo!
Fighting to struggle, glancing at Jiang Che on the shore, terrified.
"Submit or die!"
Jiang Che roared, his body shimmering purple, lightning leaping.
Upon entering the fourth stage and refining the hyoid, Jiang Che not only gained vocal speech but also possessed the ability to communicate with any animal.
By making a sound, the other party can understand the meaning expressed.
Now, a tiger roar stirred Changbai Mountain's earth and sky, and amidst panic, the white bull understood what Jiang Che wanted.
But the white bull was hot-tempered too, never experiencing such oppression since advancing to the second stage, so naturally, it wouldn't just comply.
Moo!
Its bovine eyes glared at Jiang Che.
The white bull's body surged with threads of blue light, water waves flickering, ready to strike.
Thunderous!
However, at that moment, a bolt of lightning fell swiftly!
"Still dare to move against me? I'll fry you!"
Fang Yuan sneered inwardly, striking again.
In an instant, lightning spread throughout the deep pool, the entire water pool now appeared purplish, surface lightning dancing, resembling a Thunderous Liquid lake.
With a heartrending scream, the white bull abruptly stiffened, floating on the water, lightning entwined, limbs trembling constantly.
At that moment, a tear of regret rolled from the white bull's eye.
"Humph! Submit or die! White Bull, you don't wish me to strike again, do you?"
As Jiang Che disciplined the white bull.
Underneath the Bodhi Holy Tree, Nangong Luo concluded her daily cultivation, slowly opened her eyes.
"Where's big brother?"
She gazed at the nearby ground, now empty, wondering.
And at that moment, a familiar tiger roar resonated from outside the valley.
"Big brother should be bored now!"
Nangong Luo smiled knowingly.
...
Above the wilderness, a rumbling echoed.
A helicopter rapidly flew from afar.
Now, on the helicopter.
"Sir, ahead is already the Dakun City boundary!"
The front driver suddenly reminded.
"Good! Since we're nearing Dakun City, we're not far from Changbai Mountain!"
The officer rejoiced, first chuckled lightly, then turned, looking at the Perceiver with Sensing Ability, said, "Confirm once more if the Black Demon Tiger is still trailing behind!"
"Okay!"
The Perceiver nodded, closed his eyes, quickly sensing everything.
A moment later, the Perceiver responded to the officer with a nod, "Captain, it's still following! This creature can run, sticking around for so long!"
"Very well, we'll fly directly to Changbai Mountain! Hopefully, preparations there are complete!"
The officer nodded, remarked calmly.
And not far away, on the ground.
Fang Yuan watched the drone, gnashing his teeth in hatred.
