Chapter 37: Rogue Cultivators Who Kill Without Mercy

“What is that? !”

Under Guo Dan’s lead, more than twenty itinerant cultivators arrived at the location of the hundred-year-old ice lotus.

The corpses that had died here earlier had all disappeared at this moment.

There wasn’t even a single bit of blood left. It was impossible to tell what had happened here.

But to these rogue cultivators, everything was just what had happened yesterday.

The scene of those people dying miserably under the pursuit of the blood ghost array was still vivid in their minds.

But fortunately, the blood ghost array had disappeared, so there shouldn’t be any danger here.

That was what they had originally thought.

But soon, the situation became somewhat strange.

Near the hundred-year-old ice lotus, they seemed to see a tall white creature eyeing them like a tiger eyeing its prey.

“Roar! !”

The Ice Crystal Snow Lion stood up and let out an angry roar at them. Immediately, a gust of cold air assaulted their faces, making them shiver involuntarily.

“Ice… Ice Crystal Snow Lion! ?”

Some cultivators recognized it at a glance. It was a deadly thing!

It had snow-white fur all over its body, and crystal-clear ice crystal beads hung all over its body. It was like a translucent pearl of the eastern sea, with a pair of ice crystal-like horns growing on its forehead, every part of its body showed its strength and power.

Without a doubt, this was the most powerful type of Ice Crystal Snow Lion among the rank three demon beasts.

According to the rumors, the Ice Crystal Snow Lion possessed a certain amount of ice flood dragon bloodline and could be considered a type of dragon.

Not only was it powerful, but it was also naturally able to control some of the weaker demonic beasts. Therefore, in places where there was an ice crystal snow lion, one would usually have to face not only an ice crystal snow lion, but also many other demonic beasts. It could be said that it was extremely difficult to deal with.

Therefore, the moment they saw the Ice Crystal Snow Lion, many people began to worry.

After all, it wasn’t something easy to deal with. Even the slightest carelessness could cost their lives.

Following the Ice Crystal Snow Lion’s roar, many demonic beasts appeared around these rogue cultivators.

Most of them were wolves, some snakes, and some bears.

These demonic beasts had all received too much spiritual energy during the evolution of the secret realm and evolved on their own.

Most of them were rank one demonic beasts, with only a few rank two demonic beasts. As for rank three demonic beasts, there was only one Ice Crystal Snow Lion.

Logically speaking, these people did not need to worry about these demonic beasts. They were all blood refinement realm cultivators, equivalent to the existence of rank three demonic beasts.

However, there were too many demonic beasts in front of them. There were at least a thousand of them.

On the other hand, there were only twenty of them in total, and their numbers were not proportional at all.

If these demonic beasts attacked together, they might not be able to hold on.

Especially when there was an Ice Crystal Snow Lion eyeing them from the side.

This kind of demonic beast with a certain amount of dragon blood could be said to be invincible among those of the same level.

Facing these unaffiliated cultivators who did not have much of a foundation, they could be said to be extremely powerful. Even two or three sect cultivators might not be able to defeat the Ice Crystal Snow Lion, let alone them.

This was also the reason why they were so surprised.

“There wasn’t any traces of it before. How did an Ice Crystal Snow Lion appear in the blink of an eye? And there’s even such a demonic beast! ?”

This was completely different from what they had imagined.

No wonder they were so surprised and shocked.

“The Ice Crystal Snow Lion should have appeared because of the disappearance of the Blood Ghost Formation.”

Guo Dan looked at the Ice Crystal Snow Lion’s seven-to-eight-meter-long body with fear and unwillingness in his eyes.

It was not easy for him to get to this place, and he was about to get the hundred-year ice lotus. How could he be willing to let such a roadblock appear?

Moreover, he had such people by his side. There were twenty blood refinement realm cultivators. Could it be that they could not deal with a level three Ice Crystal Snow Lion?

“Everyone, we have reached the most critical moment!”

Guo Dan was not willing to lose just like that. Therefore, he immediately opened his mouth to encourage the others.

“What should we do next? Defeat the demonic beasts completely and take the hundred-year ice lotus. This is our last chance!”

“Only by doing so can we get a chance to survive from the cultivators of the sects!”

“We don’t want to enter the mystic realm and not only get nothing, but also lose our lives in the hands of the cultivators of the sects who have been bullying and humiliating us, right? !”

No one wanted to die, especially at a time like this.

The death of those people yesterday was already scary enough, and now, no one was willing to die in this damn place.

Especially at the hands of those sect cultivators.

Once there was a conflict between a rogue cultivator and a sect, the one at a disadvantage would always be the rogue cultivator.

The resentment of rogue cultivators toward sect cultivators was not something that happened in a day or two. With Guo Dan’s mention, and the fact that those sect cultivators really wanted to kill them.

It was only because of some other reasons that they didn’t make a move.

However, this incident had indeed reminded them that the sect cultivators did want to make a move against them. If they did not think of a way to fight back, then they would definitely die!

And the best way to fight back was what Guo Dan said. If they help Guo Dan become an aura sea realm cultivator.

With an aura sea realm cultivator protecting them, the sect cultivators would not dare to act recklessly no matter how strong they were.

This was also their only choice.

“Seize the hundred-year ice lotus! Seize the hundred-year ice lotus! !”

The one who had communicated with Guo Dan earlier immediately stood up and shouted with excitement.

Everyone followed the crowd. Once someone expressed their stance, there would soon be a second, a third, and until all of them expressed their stance.

Immediately, everyone stood up. Whether they were sincere or just putting on a show, but now they all stood up and made their voices heard.

“Guo Dan must die!”

“He can’t really think that he can have us in whatever way he want after reaching the aura sea realm, right?”

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a person. How dare he incite these rogue cultivators to rebel against us?”

The three great sects, which were rarely seen, became united against a common enemy.

In their eyes, rogue cultivators were just some trash that should be trampled under their sect’s feet. But now, these people wanted to rebel against them?

They were simply courting death!

“Dongfang Qing, you rogue cultivators should try again next time. When the time comes, our fire worship sect will form an alliance with you rogue cultivators.”

The sacred flame emissary still gave Dongfang Qing some face. Then, he took out a golden spirit talisman and burned it in front of him.

The other two did the same thing.

This was the way they sent messages to their disciples. As for the content, it was very simple. There was only one sentence.

“If you find a rogue cultivator, kill without mercy!”
