Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor

Chapter 1247 - 74: Massacre in the Bahuang Mountain Range

The Bahuang Mountain Range is the longest mountain range on the Bahuang Continent, stretching for thousands of miles, like a giant dragon resting on the continent.

Upon seeing the vision, the dozen or so Heavenly Fox Candidate Saintesses had varying expressions.

"You should have recognized the place in the vision. After discussing with the Elder Council and the Great Witch Doctor, we’ve decided that this time’s martial trial will take place in the Bahuang Mountain Range. Your task is to find the Heavenly Fox Inheritance Pillar within the Bahuang Mountain Range," Hu Qianqiu’s gaze, like lightning, swept over everyone present.

Heavenly Fox Inheritance Pillar?

Yun Sheng was puzzled. What kind of thing was this?

Seemingly knowing that Yun Sheng didn’t understand, Lu Yunshuang whispered a few words to him, finally making Yun Sheng understand.

It turned out, apart from being the longest mountain range on the continent, it was also the first destination the Eight Desolate Beast Clan reached upon arriving on the continent.

At that time, the Eight Desolate Beast Clan was fragmented, with many of its members injured.

Due to the myriad native Demon Beasts in the mountains, many of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan fell during the slaughter there.

While they died, unwilling to see their unique skills lost, they preserved their legacies in the form of Inheritance Pillars.

But because the mountain range is vast and the time has been too long, those Inheritance Pillars have not all been discovered. To this day, countless Inheritance Pillars are still scattered across the Bahuang Mountain Range.

"Your task this time is to find the Inheritance Pillars, whoever can find the highest-level Inheritance Pillar within a month will be the next Heavenly Fox Saintess," Hu Qianqiu said in a deep voice.

"I must remind you, there are many Demon Beasts in the Bahuang Mountain Range, and even other Beast Clans with intentions to covet the Bahuang Inheritance may appear. The upcoming month will present both opportunities and challenges for you."

Although the Sky Fox Tribe is one of the Eight Desolate Beast Clans, due to the tribe’s decline over the years, other non-Bahuang Beast Clans on the continent have become quite dissatisfied with them.

There are even those among the Beast Clans claiming they will challenge the Sky Fox Tribe at the upcoming Eight Desolate Clan Competition in a few months, seeking to replace their position among the Eight Desolate Beast Clans.

In such circumstances, Hu Qianqiu needs to find the strongest contenders among the Heavenly Fox Candidate Saintesses.

If they can’t overcome the Demon Beasts and other Beast Clans within the mountains on this journey, it proves their strength is limited.

But if they can survive the month and find the lost Heavenly Fox Inheritance Pillar, their prestige will soar within the Sky Fox Tribe Country.

So, although they know the Bahuang Mountain Range is extremely dangerous, all the dozen Heavenly Fox Candidate Saintesses present were eager to give it a try.

After explaining the task for the martial trial, the dozen or so Candidate Saintesses, led by Hu Qianqiu, entered the Magic Array towards the Bahuang Mountain Range.

Half a day later, Yun Sheng and the other Candidate Saintesses stood at the entrance of the Bahuang Mountain Range.

Before them was an unfathomable Forest Sea, with jagged rocks and a broken mountain path between the forest.

According to the results of the written test, Hu Linglong took the top spot, allowing her to enter the mountain two hours earlier per the rules. Lu Yunshuang, who came second in the written test, and another Heavenly Fox woman could enter the mountain one hour and half an hour earlier, respectively.

The remaining ten Heavenly Fox Candidate Saintesses could only enter the mountain after two hours.

"A month from now, I hope to see you successfully return," Hu Qianqiu said in a deep voice.

"Linglong will not disappoint the Clan Leader," Hu Linglong was the first to leave. She wore dazzling red clothes, like flames darting through the Forest Sea, soon disappearing.

An hour later, it was Lu Yunshuang’s turn to depart.

"Yun Sheng, this journey into the mountain is extremely dangerous. I want to enter the mountain with you," Lu Yunshuang didn’t leave immediately and walked up to Yun Sheng.

She formed an alliance with Yun Sheng. Regardless of the situation in the Bahuang Mountain Range, if Yun Sheng died, no one would treat her Ice Fox constitution.

So Lu Yunshuang decided to stay by Yun Sheng’s side along the way for mutual care.

As for the Heavenly Fox Inheritance Pillar, it would depend on individual capabilities at the time.

"Relying on the Human Clan, aren’t you afraid of losing face as a Pureblood Sky Fox," Qin Yue sneered from the side.

She held a grudge since losing to Lu Yunshuang before.

"Didn’t last time teach you enough?" Lu Yunshuang’s face turned cold, her delicate hand raised.

Qin Yue immediately remembered the experience of her hands being frozen before; now that Yun Sheng, that little b*tch, wasn’t in their team, if she got frozen again, no one could save her.

With that thought, Qin Yue kept her mouth shut.

Once the few in front had all departed, Hua Yanluo, Qin Yue, and Feng Lian entered the Bahuang Mountain Range together.

These women might not have been on the best terms usually, but they understood that in a place like the Bahuang Mountain Range, an extra ally meant a greater chance of survival.

Everyone was finally gone, leaving only Yun Sheng, Lu Yunshuang, Yu Shang, and another Candidate Saintess from Youdu.

Today, Yu Shang appeared especially quiet, her beautiful eyes flickering as she gazed at the Bahuang Mountain Range.

"Yun Sheng, our last contest didn’t end decisively. I will certainly find the highest-level Inheritance Pillar," Yu Shang approached Yun Sheng, her blue-green eyes emitting a beast-like glint.

"Let’s enter the mountain," Yun Sheng ignored Yu Shang’s provocation.

This Yu Shang always gave Yun Sheng a creepy feeling whenever she approached; it was an instinctive aversion to an unknown danger.

Before leaving the Hu Capital, Yun Sheng once again sought out Elder Liu and received a month’s supply of antidote from him.

Elder Liu urged Yun Sheng to do her utmost to find the Heavenly Fox Inheritance Pillar. He also reminded Yun Sheng that the deeper she went into the Bahuang Mountain Range, the higher the chance of finding a higher-level Heavenly Fox Inheritance Pillar.

Hu Qianqiu watched the last few disappear into the mountains and then left.

Within the Bahuang Mountain Range, a piercing scream rang out.

"Hu Linglong, what are you doing!" A Heavenly Fox Candidate Saintess retreated in panic.

"What am I doing? You’re a Heavenly Fox Mixed Blood, what right do you have to enter the Bahuang Mountain Range? Let me send you off." A murderous intent rose on Hu Linglong’s beautiful face.

She kicked her long leg, her body wrapping around the Candidate Saintess’s neck like it was boneless.

With a cracking sound, the Candidate Saintess was twisted into a mess of flesh.

"Overestimating yourself, as if entering the Bahuang Mountain Range qualifies you to seek the Heavenly Fox Inheritance." Hu Linglong glanced behind. After entering the Bahuang Mountain Range, she hadn’t immediately sought the Heavenly Fox Inheritance Pillar but had ambushed a crucial entry path.

Already, two Heavenly Fox Candidate Saintesses had died at her hands.

Finding the Heavenly Fox Inheritance Pillar also required luck. Hu Linglong considered herself top-tier in strength, but the more people there were, the lower her chances of winning.

So she planned to find the isolated, weaker Heavenly Fox Candidate Saintesses and eliminate them one by one!
