Half an hour later, at Blackcloud Mountain!

This is the border area of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, forcibly opened by the strong of the Sword Institute, driving away a large number of fierce beasts and keeping them within.

The Hundred Thousand Mountains.

Adjacent to Canglang Royal City, it is said to stretch for millions of miles, vast and boundless.

Within it are countless fierce beasts, with many existing beyond the Qi Transformation level.

To traverse the Hundred Thousand Mountains, one needs at least the Eighth Layer of Qi Transformation to barely make it through!

At this moment, beneath Blackcloud Mountain, a crowd gathered.

The entire mountain was shrouded in a peculiar formation to prevent the fierce beasts within from escaping.

"Everyone!"

"If you wish to withdraw now, there's still a chance!"

Elder Jian asked loudly.

The crowd stirred with agitation, but no one chose to withdraw.

"I hope all of you can survive and pass the assessment! Then, we will be fellow disciples!"

Yu Feichen stepped out coolly.

"In Blackcloud Mountain, prioritize your own safety!"

"Remember, never venture deep into the mountain top, where a Grade Two Qi Transformation Realm Beast King resides, suppressing the fierce beasts of Blackcloud Mountain!"

She advised.

"Thank you, Senior Sister!"

"We will definitely pass the assessment!"

Hearing Yu Feichen speak, the crowd's expressions eased somewhat, and they all expressed their gratitude. Her words seemed to become a stabilizing force in their hearts!

"Go on!"

"Good luck to you all!"

Yu Feichen nodded slightly, like a celestial being.

Upon hearing this, the crowd became resolute and marched towards Blackcloud Mountain.

The formation opened a gap, and the crowd leaped in like fish, entering one after another.

"Blackcloud Mountain!" Chu Feng took a long look at the mountains, then glanced deeply at Yu Feichen before striding into Blackcloud Mountain.

In his heart, there was no trace of fear.

On the contrary.

He felt more excitement!

In this assessment, any gains, aside from the beast heads used as evidence, would belong to the individual!

So, in Chu Feng's eyes, this wasn't just an assessment site.

It was clearly a treasure trove! He happened to be in need of fierce beast blood to concoct medicinal baths!

Of course.

The Beast King of the Qi Transformation Realm was not among his targets. Such an existence was incredibly powerful, and since it presided over Blackcloud Mountain, its fall could lead to unpredictable changes!

Moreover, with Chu Feng's cultivation, defeating the Beast King was impossible.

"As long as I don't go into the deepest part, it should be fine!"

"Even if they are beasts of the Hundred Refinements realm, with enough numbers, they can provide the essence for a Qi Transformation Realm Beast King's blood bath!"

He clenched his fist, a hint of joy appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Entering Blackcloud Mountain, the crowd quickly dispersed.

Some traveled in groups, like Wang Zhan and his companions, while others, confident in their skills, like Chu Feng, chose to proceed alone.

Roar!

Arriving at a forested area.

In an instant, a roar echoed in all directions, causing the trees to tremble violently.

It was a black Fanged Wolf, very large, about two meters long, taller than an adult.

Sensing Chu Feng's presence, it leaped out from the forest, followed by dozens of eyes opening and closing in the shadows, all exuding a dangerous aura.

"Seventh Layer of Hundred Temperings, Fanged Wolf!"

Chu Feng's eyes moved.

"As expected of Blackcloud Mountain!"

"Just entering the mountain's range, and there are already so many fierce beasts! There must be at least a dozen of these Fanged Wolves!"

He licked his lips.

"It seems this harvest will be quite good!"

Ordinary martial artists of the Hundred Refinements realm, even at the Ninth Layer, would avoid encountering Fanged Wolves.

Such fierce beasts, individually, might not be of high grade.

But they always appeared in packs.

Whenever they appeared, there were at least a dozen of them together! Their destructive power was astonishing, and they were well-coordinated! Any martial artist facing them would find it extremely troublesome!

Moreover, this pack of Fanged Wolves was mostly at the Seventh Layer of Hundred Temperings, which essentially meant that any lone martial artist participating in the assessment would be doomed if they encountered them!

"Kill!"

A cold light flashed in Chu Feng's eyes.

Swoosh!

The Demon Sword was instantly unsheathed, and he, suddenly fearless, charged straight at the pack of Fanged Wolves!

Martial arts grow through combat, and the way of the sword requires one to constantly gain experience through killing!

Only through slaughter, through the baptism of blood and fire, can the most resilient sword and the most powerful killing moves be forged!

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

The cold light illuminated the dim forest.

Chu Feng attacked, fearless and undaunted, charging into the pack of Fanged Wolves!

...

Meanwhile, on the other side of Blackcloud Mountain, several figures approached from afar.

Find the original at " pa𝑤read.com ".

There were six of them in total.

The weakest among them was at the Hundred Refinements realm.

Leading them was a young man carrying a long spear, his eyes deep and emitting a cold gleam.

"Is everyone here?" the spear-wielding youth asked in a deep voice.

"All here!"

The group responded in unison.

"Senior Brother Zhao, isn't Senior Brother Jin making a mountain out of a molehill? Just for a waste at the Hundred Refinements realm, why do we, three Inner Court disciples at the Qi Transformation Realm, need to take action? Couldn't we leave it to Yang Gang and the others?" a youth carrying a long knife asked, puzzled.

Among these six people, three were at the First Layer of Qi Transformation.

The other three included two familiar faces, Yang Gang and Wang Ling!

"Don't complain! Senior Brother Jin is doing this to be cautious!"

"Moreover!"

"Blackcloud Mountain is fraught with danger, and by looking out for each other, we can leave no trace!"

The spear-wielding youth, Senior Brother Zhao, reprimanded in a deep voice.

"Alright, enough talk!"

He waved his hand slightly, "Remember, our target this time is Chu Feng. This waste dared to offend Senior Brother Jin; this place will be his burial ground!"
