Chapter 266 Picnic



Hearing that, the other three fairies nodded in unison and they all flew away, with Lan Yulan carrying Han Cai.

They flew continuously for days. Lan Yinmei had sprinkled some unique powder on them which would hide their presence. Seeing the powder, Han Cai thought about why he had not tried to create something like this with his alchemy. He decided that next time he would certainly try it.

Their journey was not a smooth one; it was fraught with danger and teetering on the edge of disaster. Packs of elite beasts kept attacking them. But the fairies, being Earth Immortals, cleared them out easily until they faced a pack of elite beasts led by two supreme beasts.

These beasts were monstrous, their cultivation levels matching those of Earth Immortals. Being beasts, their natural strength and instinctual cunningness heightened their power, making them formidable opponents even for seasoned cultivators.

The two supreme beasts were the most threatening. Standing tall, they towered over the landscape, their monstrous bodies exuding an overwhelming aura of raw power. Their eyes, cold and relentless, glowed with a predatory gleam that sent a chill down the spines of their human adversaries.

Faced with this onslaught, Lan Yulan had no choice but to put Han Cai down, trusting in her hastily constructed protective array to safeguard him.

Lan Yanmei faced the attacking beasts. Wei Biyu and Bai Qian joined her side, and soon Lan Yulan joined them too after dropping Han Cai off.

Even though they themselves were Earth Immortals, the battle that ensued was fierce and tumultuous. The four Earth Immortals employed all their skills and techniques, their Qi surging as they fought against the beasts. Powerful array formations were deployed, divine weapons were brandished, and the sky was filled with the light of myriad spells and talismans.

The landscape around them transformed into a battlefield, marred by the scars of their clash. Trees were uprooted, mountains shattered, and the earth trembled under the force of their attacks. Yet, they held their ground, their resolve unwavering.

Despite their efforts, the beasts were relentless, their strength seemingly inexhaustible. Yet, the four fairies were not to be underestimated. Through a combination of teamwork, strategy, and sheer grit, they managed to slowly whittle down the horde of elite beasts and critically injure the two supreme beasts.

The battle raged on for what felt like an eternity until, finally, the last of the beasts fell. However, the victory came at a price. All four of them were badly injured, their bodies bearing the brunt of the brutal battle. Lan Yulan, Lan Yinmei, Wei Biyu, and Bai Qian, despite their injuries, could not help but sigh in relief.

After getting rid of the beasts, they escaped at full speed with Lan Yulan carrying Han Cai. But soon they were ambushed by another horde.

The process continued for months. They continuously kept getting ambushed by elite or supreme beasts. They had to give their all to fight. Sometimes they might get ambushed twice or thrice a day. Luckily for them, they had recovery pills which helped them escape.

After what seemed like an eternity of nonstop flighting, the ambushes reduced as they went further and further into the realm. Finally, a time came when they stopped getting ambushed, but by now they were all miserable, except Han Cai who enjoyed the journey and the battles.

The four fairies had run out of all the Recovery pills and talismans within a month due to the constant battles.

Eventually, their group found a potential haven—a hidden valley nestled amidst a range of towering, ancient mountains.

The valley was lush and verdant, bathed in the soft glow of the setting sun, which cast long, shimmering shadows on the lush foliage below. A clear, sparkling river meandered through the valley, its path marked by a line of vibrant trees and bushes. The babbling of the river was a soothing melody, providing a stark contrast to the chaos they had just escaped.

The steep, rugged cliffs of the surrounding mountains concealed the valley from sight, providing a natural shield against external threats. Vines and thick foliage clung to these rocky cliffs, making them appear as living walls of green. Their sheer heights and the rugged terrain would make any approach from the outside difficult, if not impossible.

The floor of the valley was carpeted with soft, verdant grass that seemed to ripple like waves in the gentle breeze. Scattered throughout the valley were groves of sturdy trees, their branches heavy with fruits and their canopies providing much-needed shade. A variety of flowers bloomed around, adding splashes of vibrant colors to the landscape and filling the air with their delicate fragrance.

In the heart of the valley, there was a clear, placid lake, its waters reflecting the azure sky and the surrounding mountains like a giant mirror. The lake was fed by a small waterfall cascading down from one of the mountains, the sound of the falling water providing a constant, soothing backdrop.

There was a tangible sense of tranquility and harmony in the valley. It was as if they had stumbled upon a sanctuary untouched by the ravages of the outside world, a peaceful oasis hidden away from the chaotic realm they had just left behind. The sheer beauty and serenity of the place were enough to momentarily ease their anxiety and exhaustion. For Han Cai, this place seemed to be perfect for his vacation.

The group decided to spend the night here.

They all plopped down. The two supreme beasts had done a number on them. If they were attacked now, none of them would be able to survive. They all sat on the ground and started channeling Qi.

Han Cai found this very boring, so he collected some twigs and lit a fire. Then he took out a large cauldron, added herbs and meat to it, and started cooking. Slowly, the smell of spirit food wafted in the air.

The noses of all four fairies twitched. They opened their eyes to see a delicious meal being cooked by Han Cai. Seeing that they had opened their eyes, Han Cai got up and walked towards Wei Biyu. When he was close to her, he threw her a pill and said, "This should help you."
