Immortal through Beast Taming-Chapter 438 - 9: Savior

Run! Run! Run!

Gu Youran was running with all her might; she wouldn’t believe the lies of the Celestial Demon Cultivator.

The opponent had claimed that if she handed over the dragon vein, she would be set free, but Gu Youran didn’t trust him.

According to records, the cultivation technique practiced by Celestial Demon Cultivators, the Celestial Demon Scripture, has a perfect soul-stealing effect.

As long as one’s power is adequate, not only will the soul-stealing never fail, but even different races and genders can be targeted.

Although she was only an Acquired Immortal Body, she was still an Immortal Body. This Celestial Demon Cultivator might covet her body, intending to possess her.

The thought of a stranger occupying her body made Gu Youran sick; she’d rather die than get caught.

"This place is—"

After running some distance, Gu Youran suddenly sensed an extremely strong dragon vein fluctuation ahead. In terms of quality, it seemed to surpass her brother’s enlightened Luck True Dragon by several times!

The Ancient Country has special methods to nurture dragon veins, making the dragon veins within the Celestial Essence Ancient Country extremely high-quality, which is why the Celestial Demon Cultivator is relentlessly chasing her.

Gu Youran couldn’t help but marvel; no wonder the Source Realm is such a wondrous place.

"If I run to that dragon vein, even though I haven’t practiced the True Dragon Secret Technique, I have several methods to utilize dragon veins. Perhaps I can leverage this super high-quality dragon vein to fight back!" Gu Youran immediately decided while sensing the Celestial Demon Cultivator behind her getting faster.

She was puzzled, but the next moment, she suddenly froze, feeling as if her whole body was immobilized by Great Magical Power, utterly bewildered.

Soon, an ancient and long-lasting voice echoed beside her.

"This tree I planted, this road I paved. To enter my mountain, pay the passage fee!"

"Little girl, I see you seem to be pursued. Offer a supreme dragon vein, and I shall let you enter for refuge. I, the Mountain God, shall hold off your enemy!"

"What?!"

Gu Youran was shocked, realizing that the mountain range ahead possessed intelligence, and the dragon vein she sensed was just a part of it.

So strong!

Sweating coldly, Gu Youran sensed that this Mountain God’s power was significantly more terrifying than the Celestial Demon Cultivator behind her, pinning her down in an instant. Even her brother or the Demon Court Saint Child couldn’t be this Mountain God’s match.

The Source Realm is indeed full of hidden talents.

However, compared to the Celestial Demon Cultivator, the Mountain God seemed reasonable. At this moment, Gu Youran had no choice but to throw out a Storage Ring and say, "Here you go!"

After speaking, she ran deeper in, but the Mountain God’s voice echoed again.

"Straightforward little girl. Rest assured, I will fend off your enemy. However, to enter requires sacrifice, and to exit, you must offer more—ten supreme dragon veins. If you can’t produce them, you’ll have to stay and condense Spirit Stones for me!!!"

"You!"

Gu Youran felt like cursing; with the Mountain God’s power, it could easily seize her dragon veins, yet it shamelessly resorted to this!

"Take all the dragon veins, help me deal with that person."

She stopped thinking further since she wasn’t a match for the Mountain God. Facing possible possession by the Celestial Demon Cultivator, she would rather offer all her dragon veins to this wicked Mountain God.

At least this Mountain God wouldn’t possess her.

"Come in, miss... But remember, there’s a prohibited zone within the mountain; do not approach! If you’re killed by something dirty inside, I can’t save you." The Mountain God marked the direction of the prohibited zone for Gu Youran. Moments later, the Celestial Demon Cultivator arrived at the boundary of the Mountain God’s domain.

"Leave." The Mountain God spoke calmly to the Celestial Demon Cultivator, a voice resounding through the heavens.

"Damn it, just a step too late..." The Celestial Demon Cultivator frowned but still looked around, saying, "Mountain God, I am a Celestial Demon Sect Cultivator, an officer under Master Sheng Kun. This person... is of great use to my sect, so I request you hand her over."

The Mountain God casually replied, "I care not for your Sheng Kun or Sheng Chicken; the rules were long established."

It wasn’t afraid of the Celestial Demon Sect, and in dire straits, it could always turn to the Meteor Immortal Spirit.

"Alright, alright, alright..." The Celestial Demon Cultivator was extremely irate, but the supreme dragon veins that Gu Youran held were too tempting. The Celestial Demon Sect conquers worlds, extracting numerous dragon veins, yet those comparable to the ones held by the female cultivator were rare indeed.

The dragon veins nurtured by the national destiny of the Celestial Essence Ancient Country are irresistible to a Celestial Demon Cultivator.

"I want to enter too!!" In a final move, the Celestial Demon Cultivator gritted his teeth, intending to enter the Licentious Ritual Mountain.

This response made the Mountain God pause.

"Why, isn’t this one of the rules you laid down yourself? Name the price, I want to enter the mountain too. Once I enter, how to deal with her, you have no right to interfere."

"Indeed." The Mountain God said with annoyance, facing such a persistent cultivator for the first time. Typically, once those being pursued enter the mountain, the attackers would let it go and return the way they came.

But the Mountain God understood that for a Celestial Demon Cultivator who could absorb fortune to cultivate, the dragon veins the girl held were indeed attractive.

After acquiring a few supreme magical treasures, the Mountain God allowed the Celestial Demon Cultivator to enter the mountain...

Meanwhile, Gu Youran, who had entered the Licentious Ritual Mountain, had initially relaxed a bit but soon sensed the Celestial Demon Cultivator also approaching and had a change of face, swearing out loud while continuing to flee for her life.

"Damn Mountain God, not true to his word; promised to protect me once a dragon vein is offered, to drive away the enemy..."

"Ha, you have nowhere to run!"

The Celestial Demon Cultivator sneered coldly, looking at Gu Youran fleeing ahead. If this Mountain God were reliable, it wouldn’t have been labeled "Licentious Ritual Mountain" by outside cultivators.

Licentious ritual, meaning unruly sacrifices, how can one rely on such a wild Mountain God?

"Damn it." Gu Youran was anxious, realizing the Mountain God couldn’t be counted on, and didn’t know what to do for a while. But at this moment, she suddenly sensed another dragon vein fluctuation.

There are actually two dragon veins within the mountain.

One belongs to the Mountain God, while the other seems to be separated.

This is not the main point though; the crucial point is, the fluctuation of this dragon vein is very similar to the dragon vein of the Ancient Country.

As a princess of the Ancient Race, Gu Youran has a keen perception of the Ancient Country’s dragon veins!

"Brother?" She was thrilled; before setting off, the Second Ancient Emperor gave her and the Prince Gu many dragon veins. Besides her, those carrying the Ancient Country’s dragon veins would only be Prince Gu.

Thinking that Prince Gu might also be here, Gu Youran was overjoyed, believing that together, they could definitely defeat the Celestial Demon Cultivator.

She couldn’t help but accelerate her flight, but as she progressed, she suddenly found the direction of the dragon vein fluctuation to be precisely the prohibited zone mentioned by the Mountain God!!!

"Stop!"

Just as Gu Youran was puzzled and hesitating whether to continue approaching, a cultivator descended, glaring at her, saying, "Outsiders step back, this is the realm where my master trains. If you dare approach again, don’t blame me for taking action."
