Chapter 797: Chapter 315: The Strange Cold Apple Tree and the Seized Silver Mine (3)

“Thank you, Leader, for the Spirit Pill. Li Xuantiang has taken out more than thirty Holy Sun Pills before and after, and we’ve long been out of them.”

Li Tiancheng was the first to react and thanked Xia Hong.

Li Xuanling wasn’t so polite; she directly pocketed the Spirit Pill, pretending that nothing happened, and started walking forward.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to the locations of those two Silver Mines!”

Li Xuanling actually took the initiative to lead the way, which surprised Xia Hong a bit.

Li Tiancheng quickly explained with a smile, “Those two Silver Mines, I’ve actually never been to either of them. I only heard about them from my elder brother. In the entire Long Mountain, only Xuanling has been there with my brother, so she’s the only one who knows the locations.”

So that’s how it is!

Xia Hong followed behind Li Xuanling, continuing to head deeper into Long Mountain.

The first Cold Apple Tree we just passed was thirty-five kilometers into Long Mountain;

The second one, although twenty kilometers away, is actually to the north of it, so their depths are not much different.

The location of this Silver Mine is clearly much more special.

Li Xuanling led the two further in by about ten kilometers. The three of them occasionally sensed prying eyes around them, and their expressions gradually became more vigilant.

“We’ve only explored a little over forty kilometers of Long Mountain. At this depth, there are already quite a few Advanced Cold Beasts, and even Beast Kings appear from time to time. So usually, except for Cold Resistance level teams coming here to hunt, no one else dares to come.”

Hearing Li Tiancheng’s words, Xia Hong nodded slightly. Although it was the first time he’d heard of the term “Beast King,” he almost immediately understood it.

Beyond Advanced Cold Beasts, there must be even more powerful Cold Beasts. This is almost unquestionable; otherwise, where did so many Cold Beasts in Redwood Ridge, Arrow Bamboo Forest, and Long Mountain come from?

Just to mention one thing, Xia Hong still hasn’t figured out how Cold Beasts are reproduced. Judging by the density of Cold Beasts at the three locations of Redwood Ridge, they seem endless, no matter how many are hunted, new ones always appear.

This is extremely terrifying.

However, these are clearly not concerns Xia Hong should be having now. If one day he truly figures it out, his power will likely be extraordinary.

Hoo… hoo… hoo…

Li Xuanling had long signaled for the two to stop talking. After walking another five or six hundred meters, she suddenly waved her hand to signal the two to stop, and then turned to meet their gaze.

On all three faces, there was a tinge of gravity.

“Is that… breathing?”

“It’s too loud, isn’t it? It feels like it can be heard from three or four kilometers around.”

“What kind of Cold Beast could be making that sound?”

These three questions were softly asked by Li Xuanling and Li Tiancheng.

Xia Hong remained silent, only looking eastward three kilometers away, his eyes filled with gravity.

“This presence, it matches the Red Carp Monster we met on the Xing River North Bank, exactly the same. Could this be the Beast King?”

Li Xuanling led the two up a large tree nearby, climbing to a height of over thirty meters before pointing to a mountain to the east and whispering, “Inside that mountain lies a Silver Mine, but a large Frost Wolf Clan is entrenched in the mountain. My father said there are at least ten thousand of them, with at least a few hundred Advanced Frost Wolves. There was no such breathing last time I was here, so it seems the clan has probably got a Beast King now.”

Over ten thousand Frost Wolves, several hundred Advanced ones, and a Beast King…

Looking at the distant mountain, Xia Hong shook his head with a slight sigh, “Take me to the second Silver Mine location, then. This place isn’t feasible for now.”
