Chapter 29 Return

  The formation method is different from the maze, and the formation method uses instruments such as the formation chessboard to induce the momentum of mountains and rivers, communicate with the yuan gas between heaven and earth, and form various inexplicable phenomena. The power of the formation method does not come out of thin air, and it must be provided by the formation eye. Therefore, most formation eyes are inlaid with precious stones that contain pure spiritual energy.

  Ling Shi, this treasure, Su Han also knew after reading that rare record, that there was such a treasure in the world. At the same time, he also understood that Ling Shi, this treasure, was extremely rare in the entire world. If a piece of Ling Shi the size of a fingernail were to be put up for auction, it could easily sell for over 100,000 taels of silver.

  Su Han looked at the spirit stone inlaid in the array, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes: "This Illusory Spirit Array can trap and kill even a Master-level expert who enters it. Even if a pre-heavenly strong person enters, they will get a headache. It can be my trump card, but this way, I won't be able to absorb that earth-attribute spirit stone."

  After passing through the strange and precious record, Su Han knew that in this world, there were five kinds of attribute spirit stones: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. The spirit stone he absorbed from the small river should be a water-attribute spirit stone. And the spirit stone embedded in the array disc, emitting a faint yellow spiritual light, was an earth-attribute spirit stone.

  Su Han's absorption of the earth-attribute spirit stone would at most allow him to advance to a strong later-stage Seventh-Order Spirit Realm cultivator. If he were to face an opponent in the Congregating Spirits stage, he could at most hold on for ten or so moves. It was better to leave this spirit stone behind and use it as his trump card.

  After putting away the chessboard, Su Han carefully searched the cave again and didn't find anything valuable. He then threw the dried bones leaning against the wall into a hole and buried them.

  After doing all this, Su Han strode out of the valley in big strides.

  Soon after Su Han left the valley, the grass beside him suddenly moved, and more than a dozen third-level demon wolves serving as scouts jumped out of the grass, their eyes flashing with ferocity, pouncing towards Su Han.

  "Good timing!" Su Han's eyes flashed with a cold light as he drew out the Black Tooth Sword and took an arrow step forward, charging towards the dozen or so third-level demon wolves.

  In a few breaths, Su Han rushed into the midst of those dozen or so third-grade demon wolves, his black-toothed sword conjuring up layers of sword shadows that swept towards the wolves.

  Within the range of that sword's shadow, all the demon wolves were cut into pieces by the sword light, turning into a puddle of flesh and blood, scattered on the ground.

  Su Han looked at the corpses lying on the ground and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "It's really easy, the divine soldier is indeed a divine soldier."

  After killing those dozen or so third-grade demon wolves, Su Han didn't stay put. With a swift movement, he sped towards the outer reaches of the Red Leaf Mountains. Although he didn't know what had happened within the Red Leaf Mountains, Su Han was also very clear that at this time, he still couldn't contend with the large pack of demon wolves.

  In a stone hut in a small valley on the outskirts of Hongye Mountain Range where Su's family was stationed.

  Su Hao looked at Su Bo, his eyes red and filled with urgency: "Uncle Bo, Xiao Han hasn't returned yet after fighting the wolf pack to cover our retreat. Please send someone with me to go look for Xiao Han!!"

  Su Han didn't return for the whole night, and Su Hao was worried all night without closing his eyes. Although from a rational point of view, when they first left, Su Han had the highest possibility of returning safely because he had the strongest power and possessed the symbol knife. However, every time he thought about the scene back then, Su Hao felt extremely regretful and self-reproachful: "I should have stayed behind with Xiao Han to fight against the enemy together and let Honghong leave first. How despicable!"

  Su Bo furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "Xiao Hao, you should also be aware. From yesterday on, the entire Red Leaf Mountain Range has been somewhat off, those demonic wolves' activity range is several times larger than before, and many people have already died at their mouths. With our Su family's power, entering the current Red Leaf Mountain Range is a dead end."

  Su Hao's face changed color, and he was also very clear about the current situation. At this time, the Red Leaf Mountain Range was overrun with demonic wolves, and a large number of adventurers had died at their hands. The entire Su family hunting team had already withdrawn from the Red Leaf Mountain Range, and under such circumstances, entering the Red Leaf Mountain Range would only lead to death.

  Su Hao fell silent for a moment, and a resolute glint flashed in his eyes: "Bo Shu, then I'll go alone, that should be fine, right?"

  Su Po's eyes widened in anger, and he shouted: "Nonsense! I can understand your current mood. But think clearly, you two brothers are the only ones left in your family. If you die too, who will take care of your parents in the future? Do you want them to go through the pain of sending off their children twice?"

  Su Hao's face suddenly changed upon hearing this, and he fell into silence. He was not afraid of death, but he worried that after his own death, no one would take care of his parents.

  At this time, the situation of the Su family is a bit subtle. After Su Han defeated Zhao Jun, the momentum of the Su family was greatly boosted. However, if he dies in these Red Leaf Mountains, the situation will change again and become favorable to the Zhao family. Moreover, at this time, the Su and Zhao families can be said to have torn their faces off and become sworn enemies. If they are not careful, the Su family will be in danger of being destroyed.

  Suddenly, Su Hong rushed into the house excitedly and said: "Ahao, Xiaohan is back. He's back."

  Su Hao's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and he exclaimed: "What, Xiao Han is back."

  Su Han walked out from behind Su Hong's back with a smile on his face: "Big brother, I'm back."

  Su Hao excitedly stared at Su Han, took a step forward, patted Su Han's shoulder and said incoherently: "As long as you're back, it's good, as long as you're back, it's good."

  Seeing Su Hao's true feelings, Su Han's heart warmed up.

  Su Po's eyes flashed with a hint of relief as he stepped forward and said, "Since Xiao Han is back, we'll withdraw immediately."

  Su Han curiously asked: "Bo Shu, what exactly happened in the Red Leaf Mountains?"

  Su Po hunted for monsters in the Red Leaf Mountains for over a decade, accumulating immense experience. He fell silent for a moment before speaking slowly: "I've never encountered this phenomenon before, but I once heard that it's highly likely that precious treasures are about to emerge, which is why those innate monsters are clearing the area, not allowing anyone to approach those treasures."

  "Congenital Demon Beast!!" Su Han heard this name, all his luck was completely dispelled. A congenital demon beast could destroy a city with just one head, possessing all sorts of mysterious and extraordinary abilities, not something he could resist at present.

  Under Su Po's leadership, the Su family hunting team withdrew from the Red Leaf Mountains and returned to the Su family headquarters.
