Lin Fan was very satisfied with this harvest.
"That's right, there's still this palace; I almost forgot about you!"
Saying this, Lin Fan collected the palace into the Divine Firmament Realm.
Lin Fan observed the Cave Dwelling once more, and after confirming there was nothing left behind, he prepared to leave the Cave Dwelling.
"I wonder what people will think in a few years when this Cave Dwelling appears and they walk in to find it completely empty!"
Thinking of this, Lin Fan smiled smugly.
Shortly after, Lin Fan vanished from the spot.
"Having arrived at the Million Great Mountains again, there's no rush to return; I might as well wander around first!"
Now that Lin Fan had an Earth-Grade Mid-Tier attack jade talisman in hand, it was equivalent to a strike at the Divine Power Realm Perfection.
With such strong backing, Lin Fan was no longer as fearful of the Million Great Mountains.
Moreover, he could leave this place through the Divine Firmament Realm at any time.
"However, since I want to hunt for treasure, I can't do it without the Purple Lightning Sable."
Saying this, Lin Fan released the Purple Lightning Sable.
"Master, you finally let me out!" The Purple Lightning Sable appeared in the outside world, acting very happy.
"Alright, Little Zi, you must be careful; this is the depths of the Million Great Mountains."
"There is a high possibility of encountering Fifth-Tier Demonic Beasts, or even Sixth-Rank Demonic Beasts here!"
Hearing Lin Fan's words, the Purple Lightning Sable became quiet.
As a Demonic Beast that grew up in the Million Great Mountains, it naturally knew the horrors of this place.
"Alright Little Zi, we are going to start hunting for treasure now!"
"Okay, Master! With me here, we will definitely be able to find many treasures!"
"Haha, then let's move!"
Subsequently, Lin Fan took the Purple Lightning Sable and began to travel through the Million Great Mountains.
After a while, the voice of the Purple Lightning Sable came into Lin Fan's mind: "Master, there is something good ahead!"
Hearing that there was something good, Lin Fan was delighted.
Shortly after, Lin Fan discovered a transparent lotus flower in the center of a pool, emitting a delicate fragrance.
【Name: Crystal Lotus!】
【Grade: Earth Grade Low-Rank!】
【Effect: Detoxification; as long as the toxin does not exceed Earth Grade Low-Rank, it can be neutralized with just a single petal!】
【Growth Cycle: 60 years!】
"What a good item!"
However, Lin Fan did not act immediately.
Near this kind of Spirit Herb, there would definitely be a Demonic Beast guarding it.
Sure enough, he discovered a snake-like Demonic Beast at the bottom of the pool.
This creature was enormous, and its body was dark green.
Lin Fan estimated it to be nearly 60 meters long, and its body diameter was likely over a meter.
At this moment, the creature was staring at him from the bottom of the water.
It could launch an attack on him at any moment.
Clearly, this snake-like Demonic Beast had already marked him as food.
Lin Fan did not let his guard down; he had the System investigate the information on this snake-like Demonic Beast.
【Species: Profound Yin Snake!】
【Growth Potential: Fifth-Tier!】
【Strength: Fifth-Tier!】
【Talent: Poison!】
When Lin Fan saw the creature's information, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
"Damn, it's actually a Fifth-Tier Demonic Beast (Divine Platform Realm); you are truly insidious!"
"You're already so powerful, yet you still think about launching a sneak attack."
"If I weren't cautious, I probably would have fallen for your trick!"
After cursing for a bit, Lin Fan sighed in his heart: "As expected of the depths of the Million Great Mountains, any random Demonic Beast is a Fifth-Tier Demonic Beast!"
"However, since I have encountered a Fifth-Tier Demonic Beast, I should naturally test my own strength."
Thinking of this, Lin Fan decided to put the Purple Lightning Sable into the Divine Firmament Realm.
He was afraid that if a fight broke out, the Purple Lightning Sable would be accidentally injured.
Currently, the Purple Lightning Sable was only Third-Tier; it simply couldn't withstand the shockwaves emitted from their battle.
"Little Zi, you go back to the Divine Firmament Realm first; there is a Fifth-Tier Demonic Beast down here!"
"Then Master, you must be careful!"
The Purple Lightning Sable also knew that staying here wouldn't help and would only distract Lin Fan, so it did not insist on staying.
"Rest assured, I will be fine!"
Next, after putting the Purple Lightning Sable into the Divine Firmament Realm, Lin Fan used his fastest speed to collect the Crystal Lotus into the Divine Firmament Realm.
Such a good Spirit Herb, Lin Fan naturally did not want the shockwaves of their upcoming battle to destroy it.
It was best to collect it first.
The Profound Yin Snake was a bit slow to react; how could it have known that Lin Fan's reaction speed would be so fast?
Actually, it didn't have much interest in the Crystal Lotus.
After all, the Crystal Lotus had no use for it; it was even something that countered it.
However, although the Crystal Lotus was useless to it, it was very effective as bait.
For so many years, it had tried this repeatedly with success.
Whenever a Demonic Beast coveted this Crystal Lotus, it would become its meal.
But who could have imagined that it would fail today?
In the blink of an eye, its bait had vanished.
After regaining its senses, the Profound Yin Snake became furious.
It flew out of the water and spat a mouthful of venom toward Lin Fan.
"Hehe, petty tricks; you think you can hurt me with such a ploy?"
Lin Fan dodged the venom with a single flash.
Then, he drew the Starlight Sword and slashed toward the Profound Yin Snake.
Although the Profound Yin Snake's scales were tough, they couldn't stop the attack of an Earth-Grade weapon, so a large gash was directly hacked into it.
"Roar..."
The Profound Yin Snake felt the pain and launched another attack at Lin Fan.
The Profound Yin Snake lashed its tail, and under this powerful shockwave, the plants for a hundred miles around turned into nothingness.
For such an attack, Lin Fan naturally dealt with it with ease.
It looked powerful, but it couldn't cause him any harm at all.
Half an hour later, the Profound Yin Snake had become extremely weak.
Its body was covered in dense sword wounds.
And within a radius of ten thousand miles, no plants could be seen.
It was imaginable how intense the battle between this human and the Demonic Beast had been during this half hour.
"Take advantage of your illness to take your life!"
Lin Fan seized the opportunity and, with a single sword strike, chopped off the head of the Profound Yin Snake.
"Phew, finally solved this guy!"
"I have to say, this guy's strength is truly powerful; I'm afraid it's already equivalent to a Martial Artist at the Late Stage Divine Platform Realm!"
"Fortunately, I am more skilled, otherwise I would have had to avoid its edge."
Subsequently, Lin Fan collected the snake body into the System Space.
This was a Fifth-Tier Demonic Beast; Lin Fan naturally would not waste it.
As for the snake head, Lin Fan did not want it; it looked a bit disgusting.
Next, Lin Fan did not stay here for long.
The battle just now must have attracted the attention of other Demonic Beasts.
Therefore, he could not linger here.
It would be fine if a Fifth-Tier Demonic Beast came, but if a Sixth-Rank Demonic Beast came over, he would only be able to return to Qingyun Prefecture through the Divine Firmament Realm.
He had finally come to the Million Great Mountains; he didn't want to go back so soon.
Soon, Lin Fan flew a million miles away before returning to the Divine Firmament Realm.
Not long after Lin Fan left, a huge tiger-like Demonic Beast arrived at the place where he had just fought.
Looking at the Profound Yin Snake head on the ground, the tiger-like Demonic Beast swallowed it in one gulp.
Afterward, it looked around in a human-like manner before leaving.
