"What?"

Chu Liang's words surprised everyone.

In this jungle where demons ran rampant and their true energy could not be replenished, it was possible to encounter danger at any moment. The more cultivation one saved, the greater the chance of escaping danger in case of any sudden emergencies.

So, out of their own interests, they certainly did not want to waste their true energy on clearing the way. That was why Fang Ting proposed a fair rotation plan for the three of them.

When Chu Liang spoke up with objections, they all thought he was trying to find a way to shirk responsibility, or even drag Fang Ting and Xu Ziqing into it.

But they never expected... this young man with a warm smile actually volunteered to take on the task of clearing the way alone.

He was only at the early stage of the Divine Intent Realm, so this responsibility was really unexpected.

"Brother Chu, this is not a joke." Lin Bei was the first to persuade him. "And this road may take a couple of hours to walk. If you exhaust your true energy, it will not be good for our subsequent actions of picking the Man-Faced Jade Flower. Let's take turns clearing the way."

"It's okay, I'm confident." Chu Liang smiled. "If my true energy is about to run out, I will naturally step down and rotate. My cultivation is low, and I can't help much, so let me contribute a little more here."

His words were sincere and his expression genuine, which moved everyone slightly.

"If you insist on doing this, then you can clear the way first. It's getting late, and we need to enter the mountain as soon as possible." Fang Ting turned around and paused before adding, "Remember, if your true energy is more than half depleted, rotate in time. If you wait until it's all gone, it will be too late."

"I understand." Chu Liang nodded.

Xu Ziqing, the young girl, looked at Chu Liang and pouted.

In fact, Xu Ziqing's spiritual pet, the White Bird, was not given to her by her elder brother, but by her master. Wang Xuanling had always been very fond of her since she was young, so Xu Ziqing had deep feelings for her master. Naturally, she had a poor impression of Silver Sword Peak, which had a grudge against Wang Xuanling.

When she heard that Chu Liang was Di Nvfeng's disciple from Silver Sword Peak, she had some hidden hostility towards him. When she asked him to ride her White Bird, she deliberately sat in front of him, isolating him.

But how soft-hearted was this little girl? She suddenly saw Chu Liang take the initiative to take on the responsibility for the team, which was clearly to get closer to everyone. She suddenly felt that her behavior of isolating him just now was really not good.

And this Brother Chu Liang...

Quiet and handsome, with a beautiful smile... He looked like a good person at first glance.

Xu Ziqing tugged at her clothes and ran a few steps to Chu Liang, taking out a small bottle and saying, "Brother Chu, here are three Gathering Qi Pills, keep them for yourself."

Gathering Qi Pills could quickly replenish true energy, which was very useful in this situation. However, the main function of Gathering Qi Pills was to increase cultivation after taking them, and they couldn't follow up on cultivation here, so it was a bit wasteful to just replenish true energy.

"Xu Junior Sister, this..." Chu Liang was about to refuse, but he saw the little girl looking at him with big watery eyes, full of guilt. It seemed that if he didn't accept it, she would cry immediately.

This made him a little confused, so he could only accept it and say, "Okay, thank you very much."

"Hehe, it's okay, I have a lot more." Xu Ziqing smiled sweetly when she saw him accept it.

Chu Liang walked up and transformed his flying sword, holding it in his hand. He didn't have time to think about the emotional journey of the disciples of the Silver Sword Peak. The reason why he took the initiative to clear the way was simple.

The person who cleared the way could fight against demons...

...

"Hiss..."In the vast and dense forest of Mang Mang Cang Mountain, ancient trees reaching several zhang in height filled the area. Their canopies and vines intertwined, blocking out the sun, making it impossible for even a single ray of sunlight to penetrate through.

Fang Ting held a lantern-shaped magical tool in his hand, emitting a soft light that enveloped everyone and illuminated the path ahead. Chu Liang, who was at the forefront, spread his divine sense several zhang in front of him, carefully and vigilantly taking each step.

As soon as he detected a trace of demonic energy in his divine sense, a strange sound came from ahead.

Suddenly, a vine entwined around a thick and sturdy ancient tree sprang up, like a giant python with green spots! At the tip of the vine was a fist-sized red flower, with an extremely enchanting color.

A flower demon!

In the instant the vine attacked, the red flower instantly opened with a hiss, revealing a bloodthirsty mouth with sharp fangs!

A man-eating mouth was hidden inside these beautiful petals!

"Be careful," Chu Liang lightly shouted.

At the same time, he stepped forward, thrusting his long sword with a three chi sword aura into the heart of the flower. With a splatter, the long sword pierced through the soft flower heart like a dragon, then immediately pulled out, splashing drops of liquid with a strange smell. The red and tender petals opened with a black hole-like gap, and then collapsed, unable to close for a long time.

Within the short half an hour, Chu Liang had already dealt with four flower demons like this. It was true that the mountains of Zhen Nan Territory were full of demons and monsters. Even in a jungle on the edge, danger lurked everywhere. These vine and flower demons were completely indistinguishable to the naked eye, and if it weren't for the divine sense of a God-Intent Realm cultivator, they would have been reduced to bones in no time.

"Let's take a break." Fang Ting spoke up from behind.

Although only Chu Liang cleared the way, the divine senses of the people behind were also constantly vigilant around them. Even if they could save their true qi and physical strength, they would still feel exhausted after a long time of spreading out their divine senses.

For cultivators, their spirit, energy, and mind were all equally important.

"You guys take back your divine senses and rest for a bit. I'll be in charge of guarding the area." After everyone sat down in place, Fang Ting, as a Golden Core Realm cultivator, guarded the surroundings alone.

Lin Bei stepped forward and asked, "Brother Chu, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Chu Liang nodded.

He was telling the truth because with the help of Xu Ziqing's Gathering Qi Pill, his true qi was still at full capacity. He didn't even have the slightest intention of saving the Gathering Qi Pill... after all, killing a lantern monster would earn it back.

As long as there was a reward from the White Tower, killing monsters would always be a profitable business.

With this in mind, he closed his eyes and visualized himself inside the White Tower with a hint of anticipation.

Inside the White Tower's iron prison, there were four golden flower-shaped virtual images inside. Chu Liang approached and pressed the "Refine" button.

Boom-

A red light flashed, and Chu Liang caught the radiance that floated out. In his palm was a package of medicine powder wrapped in oil paper.

Then he had a thought.
