Chapter 3: Two and a Half Months, Stabilizing Strength

Following that, Bing Cheng spent half a day in the illusion array, absorbing all the flesh and blood of the Golden Immortal Immortal Beast, successfully breaking through to the Peak Heavenly Immortal level.

However, the Immortal Power contained within the flesh and blood of the Golden Immortal Immortal Beast was too abundant, and she had not fully absorbed it, leading to instability in both her aura and strength.

But there was no need to worry about this problem.

After all, the surroundings were filled with Immortal Beasts, and she could stabilize her strength through combat.

This place was located beneath a volcano, where the scorching magma on the ground gathered into a fire-red river that had not solidified for a long time.

Bing Cheng knew that the closer one got to the volcano, the stronger the Immortal Beasts would be, so she chose to move away from the volcano.

"I must find a way to understand this planet, otherwise, if I keep crossing the river by feeling the stones, I will eventually capsize."

While devouring the flesh and blood of the Golden Immortal Immortal Beast, she had utilized the Ten Thousand Soul Art to refine Soul Essences.

Under the state of having the Soul Essence attached to her body, it could reduce many troubles. After all, this planet was controlled by Immortal Beasts, and the identity of the Human Race was too conspicuous.

Subsequently, Bing Cheng first fought with a few Immortal Beasts to stabilize her own strength, and then moved further away from the volcano.

After an hour, she finally saw the shadow of a forest.

"Judging by the nature of the Immortal Beasts, they certainly wouldn't draw maps of the surroundings. I wonder where those surviving members of the Human Race are?" Bing Cheng felt it was necessary to make contact with the Human Race, but she would not easily trust the humans on this planet. In desperate situations, a person's desire to survive is the strongest; who knows what they might do for some cultivation resources.

Therefore, Bing Cheng was not in a hurry.

The reason she wanted to enter the forest was to find a place to stay.

In the forest, towering trees and lush plants grew wildly; if she was careful, she should not be discovered by the Immortal Beasts.

On the way, she slaughtered those Immortal Beasts with strength below the Golden Immortal level, constantly devouring their flesh and blood to improve herself, and also refined quite a few Soul Essences to use for escaping.

Just as she arrived above the forest, Bing Cheng frowned and teleported backwards.

She then saw countless thick vines striking out from the forest. If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would definitely have been entangled by those vines.

"The entire forest is filled with tree demons that have developed intelligence?" Bing Cheng really didn't know what to call plants that had developed intelligence after achieving Immortal Ascension.

But this was not important.

What was important was that she discovered that apart from digging holes in flat ground, she couldn't go anywhere else.

It was possible that there were also numerous Immortal Beasts beneath the ground.

"Meow meow… Old Mystic, are you making me play wilderness survival here?" Bing Cheng cursed. Fortunately, there was no Grand Unity Golden Immortal present, otherwise, it would be impossible to survive in this hellish place.

"I suppose this place is just a remote corner of this planet. I wonder if there are any Immortal Beasts with the strength of an Immortal Lord here…"

Bing Cheng had no choice but to wander around the forest, hunting those solitary Heavenly Immortal and Early Stage Golden Immortal Immortal Beasts.

After killing one, she would devour all its flesh and blood, and then stabilize her strength through the battle with the next Immortal Beast.

When she sensed a Middle Stage Golden Immortal Immortal Beast, she would immediately flee, not letting herself be in danger.

From the moment she stepped into the Immortal Realm, everything ahead had to depend on herself.

One day… two days… In the blink of an eye, half a month passed. Bing Cheng felt that the Immortal Beasts were like locusts; they were endless, simply endless.

"If Ranxue were here, she would probably be able to quickly break through to the Grand Unity level…" She had only been separated from He Ruoxi for half a month, and she already started missing them. This emotion was not negative; instead, it stimulated her, making her desire to become stronger even more intense.

Although the flesh and blood of the Immortal Beasts were endless, the speed of her strength increase could not be compared to absorbing the milky white fluid; it was much slower than before.

On the contrary, the improvement in her Physical Body strength was more rapid.

In high-intensity combat, Bing Cheng's Physical Body was already comparable to the strength of a Middle Stage Golden Immortal Immortal Beast's body, and the World Tree was also frantically converting the Dao of Qi and Blood, constantly feeding back into Bing Cheng's Physical Body.

She did only two things every day: fight Immortal Beasts and devour the flesh and blood of Immortal Beasts.

She didn't even dare to practice Alchemy, fearing that those higher-strength Immortal Beasts would notice something amiss.

Immortal Beasts would only begin to engage in side paths like Alchemy and Artifact Refining after they had taken human form. In order to survive in this hellish place, she had to be extremely careful; one moment of carelessness could lead to being discovered.

Fortunately, those Golden Immortal Immortal Beasts could not see through the disguise of the Soul Essence; she had been worried about this before.

Time slipped by, and another two months passed.

Bing Cheng felt that she was almost truly turning into an Immortal Beast; the unique aura of slaughter belonging to the Immortal Beasts on her body was becoming increasingly intense.

Fortunately, she could activate the illusion array stone to create an illusion array for herself.

To stabilize her state of mind.

In these two and a half months, her strength had been completely stabilized, and her combat power was ten times what it was when she first arrived in the Immortal Realm.

But Bing Cheng still did not dare to fight to the death with a Mid-stage Golden Core Immortal Beast, fearing that she might reveal even a trace of a flaw.

One day.

While on her way to hunt Immortal Beasts, Bing Cheng saw someone pop their head out from underground. Their strength was at the Early Stage Golden Immortal level, and they seemed to be investigating the situation outside.

Seeing that there was only Bing Cheng and that chased Immortal Beast around.

In an instant, more than ten figures suddenly appeared on the scene.

These people looked gaunt and emaciated, and their auras also appeared unstable; one could tell at a glance that this was caused by long-term anxiety and a lack of sufficient cultivation resources.

Even though there is no need to eat after achieving Immortal Ascension, it still has a slight impact.

Everyone did not hesitate in the slightest and immediately split into two groups; six people aimed their spears at Bing Cheng, while the other six went to chase and kill that Immortal Beast.

"Die!"

The Power of Dao that the six people had comprehended was the same; earth-yellow Immortal Power permeated out, forming a stone-like armor on their bodies, which looked incomparably hard.

Bing Cheng was still considering whether to remove the disguise of the Immortal Beast's Soul Essence.

But seeing that the six people had already attacked, she directly removed her disguise, revealing her own appearance. "Everyone, please don't be agitated. This young lady only disguised herself to facilitate hunting Yao Beasts outside."

Seeing this, the six were all stunned, unable to understand why the Immortal Beast had suddenly turned into a female Immortal, and her strength had even dropped from Early Stage Golden Immortal to Peak Heavenly Immortal. The reason for this was that their ancestors had been exiled to this planet, and they had been living here ever since. Many Legacies had long since disappeared, and the means they possessed were similar to those of the Immortal Beasts, leaning more towards Physical Body strength.

"Are you really of the Human Race?" someone asked uncertainly.

"How could this be faked?" Bing Cheng replied with a faint smile.

"I do not know which tribe you are from, Fellow Daoist?" One of the most robust male Immortals stepped out and bowed slightly towards Bing Cheng.

"I came from a place one hundred thousand li to the west, and my tribe has already…" Bing Cheng feigned sadness and pointed in a random direction as she spoke.

For her, spouting nonsense without turning red or skipping a beat was something she could do with no pressure at all.

The robust male Immortal narrowed his eyes and laughed, "It is said that when a friend comes from afar, why don't you, Fellow Daoist, come back to the underground with us, so we can treat you with hospitality."

Hearing this, Bing Cheng also narrowed her eyes.

You can't even feed yourself, and you can treat others with hospitality? Are you trying to fool a ghost? No, not even a ghost would believe that.

Just as she had thought before, how many people in a desperate situation would care whether the other party is of the same race? One's own self is always the priority.

"Thank you for your kindness, Fellow Daoist, but I just ran too far while chasing an Immortal Beast without paying attention. I still need to return to my tribe as soon as possible, lest my clansmen worry." After learning of their intentions, Bing Cheng was no longer prepared to make contact with the Human Race, so as to avoid a fight later.

After speaking, Bing Cheng ignored everyone, summoned the Immortal Beast Soul Essence again, entered the disguise state, and prepared to leave.

But she saw that robust male Immortal teleport to block her path.

"Since you have already arrived at our tribe, Fellow Daoist, then come back with me to be a guest!" Killing intent surged in the male Immortal's eyes, especially when he saw that Bing Cheng only had the strength of a Peak Heavenly Immortal; a thought arose in his heart to devour Bing Cheng.

"Hehehe… Not only is she a stunning beauty, but she also possesses special Immortal techniques. My Luck is truly good today!" As the male Immortal thought this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.

Bing Cheng instantly understood the male Immortal's thoughts and sneered, "Fellow Daoist, do you think this Golden Immortal Immortal Beast appearance is just a disguise?"

"Isn't it…" The male Immortal was stunned halfway through his sentence.

An Immortal Beast with Golden Immortal strength is not stupid. Why did that Golden Immortal Immortal Beast want to run away? The reason is obvious: Bing Cheng possesses the combat power to slaughter it.

"Impossible… How could you slaughter a Golden Immortal Immortal Beast… You are clearly only at the Peak of Heavenly Immortal…" The male Immortal said with a face full of disbelief.

"Why is it impossible?" Bing Cheng's words were cold and also filled with killing intent.

Since peaceful communication is not possible, then let us fight!
