If I can absorb the power of this blood pool and significantly improve my current cultivation level, then finding Venerable Wind in the future will be much easier.
One month later, the Tianmu Mountains opened.
Countless people flocked into the mountains to compete for the meager ten spots.
Just like in the original story, Nalan Yanran possesses a white fox with the ability to see through the fog, which the three women obtained by chance during a training exercise.
"This little thing is just as cute as our Lingling..."
Looking at the white fox in Nalan Yanran's arms, Ye Xinyue couldn't help but say something.
The "Lingling" she mentioned was the same white fox with spiritual powers that Ye Chen caught when he first entered the Misty Valley.
She had always been kept as a pet by the Ye family, but she was the darling of the two sisters, Ye Xinyue and Ye Xinlan.
Moreover, with the Ye family's resources and nurturing, Lingling's growth has been extremely rapid. Although the Spirit Fox is different from ordinary magical beasts and its combat power is questionable, its abilities have improved very quickly in recent years, at a speed that even surpasses that of a Dou Zong expert!
However, the three women hadn't expected that the appearance of this psychic white fox would immediately bring them a lot of trouble...
Just like now, five powerful individuals, the weakest of whom were all three-star Dou Huangs, directly blocked the three women's path, causing their expressions to become serious.
"Hand over the spirit fox, we don't want to destroy a beautiful flower..." one of them said.
“But we don’t mind being ruthless in destroying flowers!” His companion behind him immediately added as soon as he finished speaking.
Chapter 346 Killing Wang Chen
The sudden appearance of the five people made Ye Xinyue and the other two women look serious.
Of course, the three women weren't concerned about the five people blocking their way, but rather about the guy hiding in the treetops not far away...
"Be careful, there's someone else in the shadows, and his strength is probably no less than mine..." Ye Xinyue whispered to Han Yue and Nalan Yanran beside her.
Seeing that the three women were ignoring them, the three Dou Huang from the Earth Spirit Sect among the five were immediately displeased.
The group exchanged glances, then decided to stop wasting words with the women and immediately began to seize the items...
"Draw a circle on the ground to make a prison!"
The three members of the Earth Spirit Sect slammed their palms onto the ground with a furious roar.
Instantly, the three women felt the ground beneath their feet tremble. Then, the soil surged rapidly, and amidst flying debris, in just a few blinks of an eye, a prison formed from the soil burst forth from the ground, trapping Xinyue and the other two inside.
The attack did not stop there. Seeing the three women trapped, the remaining two immediately took action as well. One brandished her broadsword, and the other thrust out her spear, both attacking Nalan Yanran and Han Yue at the same time...
Clearly, they deliberately picked two easy targets to pick on, planning to eliminate Xin Yue's henchmen first before dealing with the strongest person.
However, what they didn't know was that compared to the five people who had temporarily gathered together, the three women who had been training together for nearly two years were far more skilled in teamwork...
With a tremor of her longsword, Xin Yue unleashed a massive sword aura that tore through the cage in front of the three. Han Yue and Nalan Yanran then ignored the incoming attack and simultaneously drew their swords, unleashing their fastest attacks to strike one of the three Earth Spirit Sect disciples!
This scene startled the Earth Spirit Sect disciple who had been targeted. Seeing the sword blade already inches away, he immediately cursed, "Crazy woman!"
Immediately, his fighting spirit surged forth, forming a thick, earthen-yellow protective shield around his body...
Han Yue and her partner's choice was beyond everyone's expectations; they had clearly never seen such a mutually destructive fighting style before.
However, just as their blades and spears were about to strike the two women's delicate bodies, an invisible flame rapidly engulfed their entire bodies, then erupted with a bang...
"what……!"
Two screams rang out as the two Dou Huangs were engulfed in flames mid-air and instantly reduced to charcoal...
This sudden change startled the remaining people, and they were even momentarily stunned.
A moment of hesitation at this moment would be fatal, because Han Yue and Nalan Yanran's swords pierced through the enemy's defenses without hesitation, leaving them completely exposed...
In the blink of an eye, three of the five were killed, something no one had expected.
The remaining two disciples of the Earth Spirit Sect nearly had their hearts leap out of their chests upon seeing this. Without any hesitation, they turned around and prepared to flee into the distance.
However, they had clearly underestimated the ruthlessness of these three women. Now that she had made her move, Ye Xinyue wouldn't let them escape so easily; they might even bring trouble upon herself. The idea of eliminating any potential threat was firmly ingrained in their minds...
The formless and intangible Fallen Heart Flame unleashed its power once more. These two terrified individuals had no ability to resist and were temporarily rendered immobile by the impact of the heart flame. They were then killed by Han Yue and Nalan Yanran, who caught up with them and each wielded a sword.
This is the power of the Fallen Heart Flame; its stealth is extremely strong, and it's easy to fall victim to it if you're not prepared.
Unless one possesses immense spiritual power or unwavering resolve, capable of withstanding the test of inner fire, otherwise...
When faced with joy, death can strike at any moment!
In the blink of an eye, the three women had taken care of the five men.
This scene greatly alarmed Wang Chen, who was hiding in the shadows. He immediately realized that the other party was not someone he could afford to offend, and turned to leave...
Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that he had already revealed his ability to walk from the very beginning, and by then it was too late to leave.
Having prepared for this for some time, Ye Xinyue, upon discovering the other party's intention, immediately slashed her sword at the tree where the other party was hiding.
"Mysterious Spirit Sword!"
boom!
The tree was severed in two by the indestructible sword energy, falling to the ground and stirring up a cloud of dust.
Wang Chen narrowly escaped, then immediately fled into the jungle...
Ye Xinyue frowned and said coldly, "Chase them!"
The three women immediately flew off in the direction the man had disappeared...
"Damn it, three bitches, I've killed five and they're still chasing after me relentlessly?!" Feeling the increasingly cold and fierce aura behind him, Wang Chen's heart was filled with killing intent, but his expression was somewhat flustered.
This was the first time he had ever been so disheveled since becoming the personal disciple of the Yellow Springs Pavilion Master.
And what's more, it was all caused by three women!
However, as can be seen from the battle just now, the strength of these three women is definitely not to be underestimated, and they are even stronger than Feng Qing'er and Mu Qingluan, so he dares not take on all three of them at once.
Just as he was anxiously thinking about how to get rid of the other party, a young man in black suddenly appeared in front of him, which made his eyes light up.
"Brother, I am Wang Chen from Huangquan Pavilion. I have three crazy women behind me. They possess a spirit-controlling white fox that can see through this fog. If you and I join forces to seize their white fox, I guarantee you a place in the Blood Pool this time!"
"A psychic white fox? Are you serious..." The young man in black was clearly tempted.
Seeing this, Wang Chen quickly assured him, "That's right, I can guarantee that! And if you and I join forces, the enemy definitely won't be able to stop us..."
The young man hesitated, clearly tempted but also wary.
Wang Chen was already cursing this guy to death in his heart, but he still had to put on a friendly face and said, "Brother, don't hesitate. There are only ten spots in the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool. If we join forces, I guarantee in the name of the Yellow Springs Pavilion that you will definitely have one of those ten spots..."
After hearing his repeated assurances, the young man in black was finally persuaded and nodded in agreement.
At the same time, Ye Xinyue and the other two had caught up. Wang Chen's expression changed, and a black dagger suddenly appeared in his hand. He said to the young man beside him who had taken out a huge black ruler-like weapon, "Brother, you hold them off for a while, and I'll seize the opportunity to launch a sneak attack and try to kill one of them as soon as possible!"
"Alright!" The young man in black seemed to have no doubt at all, and with a wave of his black ruler, he smashed it directly.
However, when the whistling wind reached his ears, Wang Chen realized that the opponent's attack wasn't aimed at him, but at him...
"What the hell?!" Wang Chen, who had just been preparing to escape, cursed angrily as he used his dagger to block the heavy black ruler.
However, the immense force emanating from that heavy ruler still sent him flying...
laugh!
A sharp pain shot through him. Wang Chen looked down at the broken blade protruding from his back, his blood-red eyes fixed on the smiling youth opposite him, before plunging into endless darkness…
Chapter 347 No Chapter Title
The black-clad youth who suddenly appeared was none other than Xiao Yan.
Come to think of it, he knew all three women opposite him...
Nalan Yanran goes without saying, as do Ye Xinyue and Han Yue. Since they were both students in the inner academy, and because Xun'er was a member of the Star Pavilion, Ye Xinyue knew that Xun'er had a childhood sweetheart boyfriend.
Moreover, Xiao Yan's talent for alchemy had caught the attention of Ye Xinyue, who came from a family of alchemists. If it weren't for the fact that the Star Pavilion didn't accept male students, this kid might have been one of Miss Ye's followers...
Then Xiao Yan might even be able to say something like: "That year, I was eighteen, standing like a lackey..."
"You are Xiao Yan?" Ye Xinyue looked at him for a long time before finally recognizing him.
These words brought a huge sigh of relief to Xiao Yan on the other side. It would have been awkward if the other party hadn't recognized him…
"Xiao Yan greets Senior Sister Ye and Senior Sister Han... It's been many years since we last met, and I never expected to see you two here." Xiao Yan greeted the two with a polite bow.
As for Nalan Yanran standing beside her, although she recognized the other person, considering their relationship, she could only pretend not to know them...
Xiao Yan shared the same thought, so the two were like strangers at this point.
"It really is you, kid. I didn't expect that in just over three years, you've gotten to this point. By the way, where's Xun'er? Aren't you two together?"
To be fair, Xiao Yan's talent for alchemy is indeed remarkable. Even within the Ye family, aside from his elder brother, probably no one could compare to him. This is truly extraordinary for someone from such a remote place as the Northwest Continent…
However, in terms of fighting spirit cultivation, Xun'er left the deepest impression on Xinyue.
Although that girl always seemed to be veiled, making it impossible to see through her, Ye Xinyue's intuition told her that the other girl's talent and strength were probably even greater than her own...
“Xun’er… went back to her family. After graduating from the Inner Academy, I wanted to travel around Zhongzhou…” Xiao Yan’s expression stiffened slightly before he spoke.
Seeing this, Ye Xinyue naturally knew that something unexpected had probably happened between the two, but what did it have to do with her?
Giving up on that question altogether, Ye Xinyue said straightforwardly, "Thank you so much this time, otherwise catching up with this guy would have been quite troublesome. You came here for the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool, right? In that case, let's go together. If possible, I can help you get a spot..."
She had no real relationship with Xiao Yan; she only decided to help him secure a position because they were both inner court students and because he had previously helped her. This was her way of repaying the favor.
Xiao Yan was overjoyed, as the result seemed to be even better than he had expected.
"By the way, this person just mentioned that his name is Wang Chen, and he comes from the Yellow Springs Pavilion. If you kill him, you need to be careful of the Yellow Springs Pavilion's retaliation..."
Thinking of Wang Chen's self-introduction earlier, Xiao Yan couldn't help but remind him.
"The Yellow Springs Pavilion?" Ye Xinyue raised an eyebrow slightly, somewhat surprised. However...
"It's just the Yellow Springs Pavilion, it's nothing. In the end, this guy brought it on himself. Even if the Pavilion Master of the Yellow Springs Pavilion came, he couldn't do anything to us."
These words sent a jolt through Xiao Yan's heart.

The Pavilion Master of Huangquan Pavilion is a true Dou Zun powerhouse.
Ye Xinyue was able to face a Dou Zun powerhouse so casually, so the power behind her must be at least stronger than Huang Quan Pavilion, right?
I never expected Canaan Academy to have a student with such a background. Since your family is so powerful, why are you even going to Canaan Academy?
Xiao Yan couldn't figure it out, but that didn't stop him from taking advantage of Ye Xinyue's influence. If he could really get a cultivation spot in the Blood Pool, that would be the best outcome!
……
……
Wang Chen's death may seem insignificant to Ye Xinyue and others, but it caused a huge uproar outside.
Of course, it doesn't mean that everyone involved in the fight for the Tianshan Blood Pool knew that he was killed by three women. Rather, it was the fact that the Yellow Springs Pavilion Master, Venerable Yellow Springs, personally went to the Tianmu Mountains!
This Venerable Yellow Springs appeared to be an old man dressed in black robes. His face was pale, and there was a hint of gloom between his brows. His eyes were black and white, which looked quite eerie.
Especially since he was currently in a fit of rage, the terrifying pressure unique to a Dou Zun directly enveloped the entire Tianmu Mountain Range...
"Venerable Huangquan, what are you doing?!" As the master of the Tianmu Mountain Range, Jin Shi, the patriarch of the Gold-Eating Rat Clan, appeared in the sky with the powerful members of the Gold-Eating Rat Clan and questioned Venerable Huangquan.
Thanks to Ye Chen's help, the fire poison in Jin Shi's body had been completely cleared. Moreover, after so many years of accumulation, his strength had even advanced further, reaching the peak of the Dou Zong level, just one step away from breaking through...
Therefore, Jin Shi still had some confidence when facing Huang Quan Venerable, who was only a two-star Dou Zun.
"What am I supposed to do?" Venerable Huangquan's face was gloomy, and black battle aura rose around him, making him look like a demon god who had walked out of hell.
"My disciple died in your Tianmu Mountain, so what do you expect me to do?!"
These words immediately caused an uproar at the foot of Tianmu Mountain.
"The disciple of Venerable Huangquan, isn't that Wang Chen? He's actually dead? How is that possible..."
Many people find it somewhat unbelievable.
After all, Wang Chen is quite famous and powerful in the Northern Region of Central State. Those who entered Tianmu Mountain this time were merely Dou Huangs; who among them could possibly kill Wang Chen?
"Could it be that the successors of the other two pavilions in the Four Directions Pavilion made a move?"
This was everyone's first thought, and it was also the first thought of Venerable Huangquan.
The reason there are only two pavilions is that since Miss Feng Qing'er, the successor of the Fenglei Pavilion, disappeared three years ago, she has never appeared again. Therefore, the Fenglei Pavilion no longer has a leading figure among the younger generation like the other three pavilions!
Upon hearing this news, Jin Shi's expression changed.
