This is something even the common Daluo Golden Immortals can't accomplish!

The woman was draped in a short skirt woven from fragrant herbs, revealing her slender and straight pale legs, while around her waist were twines blooming with flowers, her red lips and white teeth shining, eyes sparkling with anticipation. At first glance, she seemed like a goddess from West Kunlun descending upon this land.

However, Yu Yuan's Upper Pure Divine Eye could discern that this woman's origin was that of a mountain ghost.

So-called mountain ghosts are ancient spirits of the mountains and forests, infused with the refined spirit of Heaven and Earth, often possessing marvelous appearances and formidable strength, thus many tribes honor them as mountain ghosts, and more commonly, they are called Mountain Gods.

Mountain ghosts protect countless mountains and living beings and possess the power to govern the forests and mountains.

Yu Yuan was surprised because under normal circumstances, only mountain ranges with extremely dense Spiritual Energy, so-called Cave Heaven Blessed Lands, could give birth to unique beings like mountain ghosts.

Usually, mountain ghosts cannot leave their birthplaces.

Therefore, he could conclude that the chances of this mountain ghost coming from another Bu Continent were virtually zero.

And the Northern Continent is enveloped by poisonous miasma all year round, which doesn't seem to be a place where mountain ghosts could be born.

So... where does this mountain ghost come from?

"Hey!"

At this moment, the mountain ghost saw that Yu Yuan was scrutinizing her without blinking and could not help but slightly frown, proceeding to purse her lips in dissatisfaction and said, "Have you, this foreigner, not listened to my words? It's strange, how did you, a Profound Immortal, manage to come here all by yourself?"

Yu Yuan smiled and said, "You're only at the realm of True Immortal yourself, and yet you start to look down upon me, a Profound Immortal?"

"Eh, how did you figure it out?"

The mountain ghost blinked curiously and then shook her head, "No, no, that's not right, I didn't mean to look down on you...

I am reminding you that this place is dangerous, besides the poisonous miasma, there are many Fierce Beasts and venomous insects lurking, it's very dangerous for you, a foreigner, to walk here alone!

Hurry and return to find your companions, and never wander out alone again."

Yu Yuan felt her kindness, which confirmed his conjectures about her identity a bit more.

Mountain ghosts are naturally pure and good, tasked with protecting the forests, sheltering all beings, advising those who stray into dangerous territories to leave, which is what they do most often.

Thinking this, he nodded slightly, and with a hint of curiosity, said, "On my way here, I noticed many signs of mystical battles, could it be that something major has happened around Cui Ping Mountain?"

The mountain ghost immediately furrowed her brows, "Whatever has happened has nothing to do with you, this foreigner, you should leave quickly."

She looked at the large hand Yu Yuan had on the flower stalk and reminded him, "Although this Bone-Eating Flower is highly poisonous, it is also a living being, and if you pick it, not only are you taking its life, but also making it experience the pain of being beheaded!"

Yu Yuan raised his eyebrows and pointed to the blooming and delicate flower, "Are you sure this is its head, and not something else?"

Mountain ghost: "..."

She was a spirit of the forests, familiar with everything in them, and naturally understood such basic knowledge. She immediately said, "If you prefer, you can consider it its reproductive organ...

Just think, when you ruthlessly pluck its reproductive organ, how intense the pain must be! If it were you..."

Yu Yuan: "..."

"What you're saying is a bit disgusting."

Having said that, he swung his hand, and the mountain-sized Bone-Eating Flower, along with the soil, flew into the air, tracing a parabola and disappearing into the thick poisonous fog.

The mountain ghost standing in the Black Wood Forest, upon seeing this scene, clenched her little fists secretly and a touch of relief appeared in her eyes.

Through her relentless efforts, she had finally helped preserve the life of that Bone-Eating Flower.

I'm doing such a splendid job as the guardian deity of these mountain forests!

While she was secretly praising herself, a beast roar accompanied by fierce Gang Wind struck from the left!

This was a monster with wings on its back, a leopard's head on a human body, its claws tinged with a faint dark green light, its form swiftly pouncing towards Yu Yuan like lightning.

"C-C-Careful!"

This sudden turn of events scared the mountain spirit into stuttering, clumsily attempting to cast a spell to save the day, but the Leopard Demon was too fast, she couldn't react in time!

"Bang!"

A dull thud echoed.

The mountain spirit covered her eyes, unwilling to witness the cruel scene that was about to unfold.

She knew how formidable that Leopard Demon was.

That was a True Immortal Realm Great Demon, not even she was sure she could handle it.

Wasn't capturing a mere Profound Immortal as easy as pie?

Even though she covered her eyes, she could still imagine that the outsider had already been torn to shreds by now, with his head probably ripped off.

Sigh, this is the consequence of not listening to my advice!

She sighed and opened her eyes, only to freeze in place.

She saw that the Leopard Demon was now held by the neck and lifted by that outsider, its huge body limp like a pile of mud, not a single intact bone to be found on its body!

"Hisss~"

The mountain spirit gasped in shock.

That Leopard Demon was a very powerful monster, tough for even her to handle, yet this outsider simply raised his hand and caused its bones to break and tendons to tear, clearly beyond survival.

How terrifying!

While she was still in shock, she saw the outsider smile and look towards her.

In that moment, the mountain spirit's scalp tingled, and she instinctively used her Innate Divine Ability.

The space in front of her suddenly rippled like water, expanding rapidly to envelop her and transport her tens of thousands of miles away to a serene canyon.

She looked around with a bit of unsettlement, and what caught her eye were gently swaying pine and bamboo forests, rustic pathways and pavilions, ancient residences with decorative arches, uniquely shaped bridges interspersed among the mountains, and the varied inhabitants…

The scenery of this valley was so beautiful, with green mountains and clear waters, bright sunshine, a stark contrast to the miasma-covered lands.

Outside the valley, the thick grey-black miasma stood like walls in view, as if constantly reminding the creatures within of the terrifying world outside the valley!

Seeing these familiar sights, the mountain spirit finally relaxed, though she was still somewhat shaken.

What she witnessed just now was too shocking and horrifying.

No!

Such a terrifying outsider arriving at Cui Ping Mountain was too dangerous for the residents living here.

What if someone incited the ire of that outsider, wouldn't they meet the same fate as the Leopard Demon?

She must warn the valley's inhabitants not to provoke the outsider!
