Chapter 2037: Chapter 1044: The Snow Fox Reappears (Part 2)

It was evident that the area of this Ice and Snow Valley was vast, with winding and intersecting valleys creating such a unique geographical environment.

At the bottom of the valley, the river’s surface was completely covered by snow and ice, with only the dark river beneath the thick ice layer surging endlessly.

In the sky, snowflakes danced as a cold, biting wind howled through like a blade.

In such an icy world, the climate conditions were indeed harsh.

If an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator were to come here, they might not be able to stay for long, as they would likely be frozen to death by the extreme environment or mercilessly devoured by the blade-like cold winds.

Yet, in such an extreme environment, the figures of eight human cultivators appeared.

These eight were none other than Wang Jinshan and his companions who had rushed all the way here.

At this moment, Wang Jinshan and the other seven halted at the center of the valley, their gazes scrutinizing the upstream area of the valley.

Following their line of sight, at the base of two distant ice mountains was a bottleneck, with a gap of only a hundred yards between the sides.

The peaks on both sides soared into the clouds, like two giant swords inserted at the flanks of the valley.

Due to this unique geographical environment, Wang Jinshan and the others stopped in their tracks.

The reason was that this bottleneck-like valley was their ultimate destination.

At this point, Wang Jinshan stood at the forefront of the group, and upon arriving here, his sharp gaze immediately focused on the distant bottleneck of the valley.

Not only him, but Yan Long and the others behind Wang Jinshan also noticed this geographical feature and looked into the distance.

After a while, a middle-aged man at the Late Stage Golden Core spoke up to break the silence,

"Brother Wang, the geographical environment here is extremely harsh, and its features are unique. This should be our destination, right?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Jinshan and the others retracted their gaze.

Subsequently, Wang Jinshan looked at his fellow disciple who spoke and slowly responded.

"Junior Song, you are correct!"

"Behind the valley in front of us is the lair of the Tianshan Snow Fox."

"And here is also the place where our ancestors made trade agreements with the Tianshan Snow Fox."

Upon hearing these words and receiving Wang Jinshan’s confirmation, everyone present became highly alert.

Then, the cultivator who spoke earlier continued, "Since we have arrived at our destination, the Tianshan Snow Fox should appear next."

"Hehe... I wonder if this demonic beast has truly broken through to the Fourth Order Middle Stage..."

"Or whether this powerful demonic beast will do something unexpected..."

"Hehe... I find myself a bit eager for that!"

These words piqued the curiosity of everyone present.

Including Wang Jinshan, there was also a sense of curiosity, wondering whether the appearance of the Tianshan Snow Fox would be as anticipated by others and whether it would do something foolish.

With this curiosity, Wang Jinshan soon calmed down.

Subsequently, Wang Jinshan reassured everyone present with a few words and then waited in place.

As time gradually passed by, a short while later,

as a chilling Gang Wind stirred, a thick fog surged from the distant bottleneck of the valley.

At this moment, Wang Jinshan was the first to notice this change.

"Fellow disciples, the Tianshan Snow Fox is about to appear!"

As Wang Jinshan finished speaking, the dense white mist in the distance began to gradually dissipate, eventually revealing a hazy figure.

Gazing from afar, this figure was more than ten feet tall, completely covered in snow-white fur, unmistakably the Fourth Order Tianshan Snow Fox.

At this moment, Yan Long and the others looked towards the Tianshan Snow Fox, their gazes secretly assessing it.

After a while, they judged from the aura revealed by the Tianshan Snow Fox.

It could be confirmed that this Tianshan Snow Fox indeed broke through to the Fourth Order Middle Stage.

This outcome did not particularly surprise those present.

For hundreds of years ago, the Yulan Sect’s ancestors, who emerged from the Ancient Demon Secret Realm, had explicitly put forward this possibility.

Now that hundreds of years have passed, for the Tianshan Snow Fox, which once broke through, to do so again is not unusual.

After all, in recent millennia, there have been multiple transactions between the Yulan Sect and the Tianshan Snow Fox.

In these transactions, the Yulan Sect obtained significant benefits, while the Tianshan Snow Fox also obtained a wealth of resources.

With these resources and treasures, if the Tianshan Snow Fox remained stagnant, that would be unusual.

Moreover, as a descendant of ancient demonic beasts, the Tianshan Snow Fox had inherently potent talent and bloodline, with huge growth potential.

On this basis, cultivating in the Ancient Demon Secret Realm, utilizing various resources and treasures, along with the items obtained from trading with the Yulan Sect, made its continuous breakthroughs only natural.

Conversely, if this were not the case, that would be the unexpected outcome.

Knowing this, despite being unwilling to see such results, none of those present dared to show any sign of it, fearing to arouse the Tianshan Snow Fox’s suspicion or concern.

After all, the Tianshan Snow Fox’s grade and strength stood out.

Faced with such a gifted, powerful demonic beast, those merely at the Golden Core Stage Realm would naturally feel some tension and deep apprehension.

Therefore, Wang Jinshan and the others maintained calm expressions, pretending to be composed.

And opposite them, the Tianshan Snow Fox fully revealed its form, then slowly approached Wang Jinshan and his companions.

From afar, the Tianshan Snow Fox spoke in human tongue, "Young ones, did you bring what was agreed upon in the past?"

Having said that, the Tianshan Snow Fox had already approached, less than a thousand yards away from Wang Jinshan and his companions.

At this moment, hearing the Tianshan Snow Fox’s words, Wang Jinshan paused slightly. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Then, Wang Jinshan hurriedly cupped his fists and bowed, actively paying respects to the Tianshan Snow Fox, "Junior Wang Jinshan, True Disciple of the Yulan Sect, greets Senior Snow Fox!"

As soon as the words fell, Yan Long and the others behind him came to their senses, quickly cupping their fists and bowing in unison to pay respects, "Juniors of the Yulan Sect, greet Senior Snow Fox!"

Seeing Wang Jinshan and others’ actions, the Tianshan Snow Fox waved its blade-like claws.

"Young ones, no need for excessive formalities!"

"I am busy with slumber and cultivation, so please quickly complete the transaction as agreed."

Having said this, the Tianshan Snow Fox stared intently at Wang Jinshan and the others, as if unwilling to waste time.

At this moment, seeing the Tianshan Snow Fox’s straightforward manner, Wang Jinshan didn’t intend to waste time either.

For in his view, while the Tianshan Snow Fox’s time was pressing, their time as human cultivators was even more so.

It is known that the duration for which the Ancient Demon Secret Realm remains open is limited, with a cultivator able to remain for a maximum of seven months.

Conversely, demonic beasts, being indigenous to the Ancient Demon Secret Realm, could easily live for thousands of years unless killed.

So, even the Tianshan Snow Fox was in a hurry, making human cultivators even more pressed for time.

Understanding this, Wang Jinshan glanced at the Tianshan Snow Fox, then at Yan Long and the others behind him.

Subsequently, Wang Jinshan waved his hand, and a silver-white Storage Jade Pendant appeared in his hand.
