Chapter 444: Chapter 165 The Snow Abyss Mountain! The Frozen Chi Dragon Hall!_1

Every martial artist does not wish to be stagnant, and Su Changkong was no exception. Being stuck at the pinnacle of the Qi-Blood Realm, he had to find a way to break through.

“I could take a look at Snow Abyss Mountain.” In the end, Su Changkong made up his mind to try his luck on Snow Abyss Mountain!

It would be best to obtain Innate Qi naturally; if not, it would be just a delay of some days.

With this thought, Su Changkong said to Li Hongwu, “Vice Master Li, let’s not speak of today’s matter to others. I do not wish to attract too much trouble.”

For someone at the Qi-Blood Realm to slay a Monster Warrior of Innate Level strength was quite astonishing.

“Of course! Naturally!”

Li Hongwu immediately nodded in agreement, assuring him repeatedly. He also did not wish to bring trouble to Famous Sword Mountain.

“I’ve used Heaven Silkworm Silk to rejoin and sew your brother’s broken bones and internal organs. Let him rest well for some time; I shall not stay for long.”

Afterward, without any delay, Su Changkong informed Li Hongwu and then turned to leave.

“Spirit Taoist Sect… has actually produced such a monster?”

Watching the retreating figure of Su Changkong, Li Hongwu felt a touch of envy. Such a monstrous talent, truly not an ordinary person!

Subsequently, Li Hongwu quickly got to work, cleaning up the battlefield, mainly collecting the body of Shan Weizhao and burning it cleanly with fire. He hated this Monster Man who killed more than a dozen of their disciples and almost caused the death of his own brother, and even without Su Changkong’s instructions, he would not leave Shan Weizhao a whole corpse.

On the way, Su Changkong returned to Spirit Taoist Sect by evening. After organizing his travel bag, which mainly consisted of his weapons—the Iron-Cutting Sword and the Star Pattern Gold Strong Bow—he was ready.

“Sect Master, I need to leave for personal matters. I must make a trip to Snow Abyss Mountain.”

And so, Su Changkong also greeted Helian Yuan.

“Snow Abyss Mountain? That place isn’t peaceful right now!”

Upon hearing this, Helian Yuan was slightly surprised.

Famous Sword Mountain having received the news that Snow Abyss Mountain held Innate Qi, Spirit Taoist Sect naturally obtained similar information.

However, Helian Yuan had no intention of heading to Snow Abyss Mountain; firstly, since this news had spread, Snow Abyss Mountain probably gathered many martial artists looking to obtain Innate Qi. A conflict might erupt with other Warrior Sects for it, with the potential for losses outweighing the gains should any of their Innate Martial Artists be harmed. Secondly, even he knew this information, so one can imagine it’s already too late to go now, likely not even able to get a taste of the rewards.

The Spirit Taoist Sect also preferred not to engage in strife with others, instead focusing on peaceful development.

“Then you… be careful on your journey.”

Yet Helian Yuan did not stop Su Changkong, knowing how much he desired to obtain Innate Qi, something Spirit Taoist Sect could not fulfill, and so it depended on him alone.

“Hmm.”

Su Changkong nodded, not one to dawdle. After saying goodbye to Helian Yuan, he set off towards Snow Abyss Mountain.

Clad in black garments, carrying a Star Patterned Bow on his back, and with the Iron-Cutting Sword at his waist, Su Changkong raced along the road leading to Snow Abyss Mountain.

It was now winter. Although no snowflakes drifted from the sky, there was an additional chill in the air, and the trees along the way had shed their leaves, offering a desolate view.

Su Changkong rushed on his way, aware that the later he arrived, the less chance there would be of anything left for him.

And as he approached Snow Abyss Mountain, Su Changkong felt the air grow even colder. When he arrived at Snow Abyss Mountain, it was already five days later.

Southern Central State’s Snow Abyss Mountain, with temperatures frigid and stretching over a thousand miles, is perennially covered with snow and rarely visited by humans.

“Snow Abyss Mountain is indeed unique!”

Su Changkong felt a chill in his heart. From afar, although it was the cold winter season, not a snowflake fell within two or three hundred miles of Snow Abyss Mountain, but on the mountain itself, snowflakes fluttered about.

The whole Snow Abyss Mountain looked like a silver dragon sprawled across the land, extending for thousands of miles, dressed in a shroud of silver.

“Pfft! Pfft!”

Su Changkong followed the path, climbing towards the summit of Snow Abyss Mountain. His footsteps pressed into the snow, compressing it and causing a crunching sound.

“There are bodies…”

As he moved up the snow-covered road, Su Changkong saw a body not far away submerged in the snow; the blood had already coagulated, and the flesh was frozen blue, unattended to.

According to what Su Changkong heard from Li Hongwu, more than one wisp of Innate Qi had emerged on Snow Abyss Mountain and was fiercely contested by a large number of martial artists, resulting in bloody battles. Many fighters buried themselves in the struggle for Innate Qi on Snow Abyss Mountain, which seemed to be no exaggeration.

On his way there, Su Changkong had already seen at least five bodies!

But now Snow Abyss Mountain was very quiet, and Su Changkong couldn’t help but wonder if he was too late. After all, this was news from several days ago, and by now Snow Abyss Mountain might already be deserted. Those martial artists who obtained Innate Qi would naturally not linger and would have already embarked on their departure.

“Hmm?” At that moment, Su Changkong looked up and saw not far away, three warriors dressed in fighter’s garb, braving the wind and snow. However, they were not going up the mountain, but down instead.

This stirred something in Su Changkong, observing their appearance; they must have spent some time on Snow Abyss Mountain and were now preparing to leave. He thought to approach and ask about the current situation on Snow Abyss Mountain.

“Damn it! That old fart guards the entrance and won’t let anyone in. What’s so great about him? Wait until I’ve improved my cultivation; if anyone dares to stop me, I’ll chop them down with one strike!” grumbled the three warriors as they walked along.

“Shh!”

But quickly, the three of them noticed the imposing figure of Su Changkong approaching. One of them gestured for silence, while the others ceased their chatter, instead watching Su Changkong with a hint of vigilance in their eyes.
