The brutal battles in the mountains are well-known, even Li Yunjing at the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" has heard about them.

It's said that over the years, the number of fallen cultivators has already reached hundreds of thousands.

Almost at regular intervals, various sects and factions send out small squads to various parts of the "Transverse Mountain Range" to clear out demon beasts and demon cultivators in the mountains.

Of course, with the tireless efforts of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," the "Transverse Mountain Range" is now much safer than before.

Previously, without the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment Realm, one wouldn't dare enter the "Transverse Mountain Range." Now, junior cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm can be seen everywhere.

This is the result of repeated purges by the "Shenxiao Dao Sect."

The demon beasts inside the "Transverse Mountain Range," except for some hiding in the mountains and playing guerilla warfare with the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," have migrated to other countries, fearing the ruthless means of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect."

And those demon cultivators are also no real threat!

Under orders from the "Netherworld Ghost Sect," they entered here to sabotage the development by the "Shenxiao Dao Sect."

These demon cultivators are also causing trouble one place after another.

Like flies, buzzing around, making everyone in the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" very disgusted.

At this moment, what Li Yunjing and Fu Chao see is a scene where some cultivators are engaged in fierce battle.

It's clearly evident that the demon cultivators' side is already failing.

Under these circumstances, Li Yunjing and Fu Chao naturally didn't need to reveal themselves.

Currently, the "Transverse Mountain Range" has been mapped out by the "Shenxiao Dao Sect."

The entire mountain range is like a giant dragon lying across the border of the "Great Ming Cultivation Realm," with the dragon's head position near the northernmost area, which is also the best place in the "Transverse Mountain Range," its very core.

There, the dragon vein exists along with infinite resources, occupied by an army from the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," which has become the Guardian Army's base.

While other parts of the dragon's belly are the territories of the "Great Ming Cultivation Realm."

Right opposite the dragon's belly lies "Youyue Country!"

As for the position of the dragon's tail, it's also a territory where masters from the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" are stationed.

It could be said that within the "Transverse Mountain Range," the power of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" is stronger than the "City of Glory" by more than three times!

And it is definitely not weaker than the front line at "Shenxiao Pass."

When Li Yunjing and Fu Chao entered a forested area in the central region of the "Transverse Mountain Range," they suddenly noticed a cultivator being besieged by demon beasts in the forest.

"It's a disciple of the 'Shenxiao Dao Sect'!"

Fu Chao, with his sharp eyes, instantly recognized the sect attire on that female cultivator.

"Since she's our fellow sect member, we can't just stand by and let her die."

Li Yunjing furrowed his brows and quietly said, "Let's go down!"

The two quickly descended, and without Li Yunjing needing to act, Fu Chao swung his "Red Sun Sword," releasing a fierce sword qi that swept out directly, turning several Ice Plain Wolves into ashes.

"Thank you, seniors, for saving me!"

The female cultivator's face was pale, clearly having suffered quite a bit of injuries, but upon seeing Li Yunjing and Fu Chao, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.

Li Yunjing looked at the female cultivator and asked, "Which peak are you a disciple of? How did you end up alone here?"

"I am a disciple of 'Cyan Cloud Peak,' my name is Lin Wan'Er."

The female cultivator took a few breaths and quietly said, "Initially, I was with several senior brothers and sisters to execute a mission in the 'Transverse Mountain Range,' but unexpectedly encountered demon cultivators from the 'Yin Mountain Sect,' and we were scattered. I fled all the way here and was besieged by Ice Plain Wolves. Luckily, I met you, senior brothers."

"Demon cultivators from the 'Yin Mountain Sect'? How dare they attack our 'Shenxiao Dao Sect' disciples?"

Li Yunjing's expression turned serious upon hearing this.

"These demon cultivators are becoming increasingly outrageous! Old Li, we can't just let this slide; we should go settle the score with them!"

Fu Chao scoffed coldly and said sinisterly.

Li Yunjing shook his head and asked, "Lin Wan'Er, how are you? Can you return to the base yourself?"

Lin Wan'Er understood right away and quickly said, "Seniors, you don't have to worry about me. My injuries aren't severe, and I can return by myself. If you have other tasks, don't let me delay you."

"There's no need to be polite among fellow sect members. Returning alone is too dangerous, we'll escort you part of the way."

Li Yunjing glanced at her and said indifferently.

"That's right, Junior Sister Lin, don't refuse. Let's go back together, it'll be safer on the road."

Fu Chao nodded in agreement.

His enthusiasm was due to Lin Wan'Er being very beautiful, with a small and delicate appearance that evokes tender feelings, hence his warm attitude.

"Thank you, seniors! May I know the esteemed names of the seniors?"

Seeing that the two weren't being formal, Lin Wan'Er had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"I am from 'Seven Stars Peak,' Li Yunjing!"

"I am from 'Mad Extreme Peak,' Fu Chao!"

Li Yunjing and Fu Chao gave their names, feeling no need to elaborate on positions or backgrounds.

Indeed, after hearing Li Yunjing and Fu Chao's names, Lin Wan'Er was greatly shocked, her lips forming a big 'O,' her bright eyes full of amazement.

Lin Wan'Er never expected to encounter two prominent figures from the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" here.

She once more bowed respectfully to Li Yunjing and Fu Chao, grateful for their lifesaving help.

To care for Lin Wan'Er's injuries, Li Yunjing deployed the "Cyan Cloud Ship."

Following Lin Wan'Er's directions, they flew towards a nearby "Shenxiao Dao Sect" stronghold.

On the way, Li Yunjing also learned more about the situation in the "Transverse Mountain Range" from Lin Wan'Er.

"Recently, the 'Transverse Mountain Range' has indeed been unsettled."
