Along the way, He Qingge also searched carefully to see if there were any items that met the requirements.

The Peak Master of Imperial Beast Peak had a special liking for the number three.

He Qingge’s Hearing was very powerful, and he could detect places that were quite far away. Every time he moved forward, he planned his path to avoid danger as much as possible.

He tried his best to avoid his seniors.

He did not encounter any danger along the way, but he did not find any decent items either.

However, he was not in a hurry. The assessment had just begun, and there were still three months before it ended. There was enough time for him to prepare.

Moreover, the main purpose of the assessment was to assess opportunities and luck. What were opportunities and luck?

They would come looking for him even when he was not looking for them.

While searching for things, He Qingge also increased his cultivation at the same time. He never stopped cultivating.

He slowly approached the third peak of the Black Mountain.

He Qingge noticed that many of his fellow disciples had already arrived at the mountain peak. He Qingge carefully avoided them and hid behind them to observe them with his Hearing.

There was a powerful python on the top of the mountain. He did not know if it was true or not.

He Qingge also wanted to verify whether the diary in the hands of the strong man was real or fake.

A loud hiss came from the top of the mountain, accompanied by the sound of huge rocks rolling down.

He Qingge was still one-third of the way to the top of the mountain.

Hearing this huge beast hiss, it seemed like the beast was angered by something.

No matter what, there must be a relatively powerful demonic beast on this mountain peak.

Fortunately, he was not alone on this mountain peak. There were many seniors and iuniors in front of him.

In particular, there were a few Foundation Establishment Realm inner sect disciples. It was very likely that there was a conflict between them.

He focused his Hearing ability on the place where the hiss came from and observed carefully.

The situation that he had investigated quickly gathered in his mind like a 3D model.

A huge python was being besieged by a few people. Each of them had all kinds of magic tools in their hands as they floated in the air.

However, they did not float with the help of magic tools, which indicated that their strength was in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

In addition, many outer sect disciples were following them, but they were carefully hiding at the side.

He Qingge observed that there were strange flowers and plants on the top of the mountain, like a colorful garden.

It was very similar to the description in the diary of the burly man who had robbed him.

At this point, He Qingge believed half of the diary.

The python was indeed very strong. Several Foundation Establishment Realm people besieged it, but they were unable to do anything to it in a short period of time.

The attack of the magic tools hit the python’s scale armor, making a sonorous sound of metal colliding. It did not break through its defense, however.

The demonic beast, the giant python, was several meters long. Its entire body was covered in thick scales, shining with a black light under the sunlight.

Its head was wide and flat, with sharp teeth and two bright eyes. It emitted a terrifying aura. From time to time, black smoke would come out of its mouth, like an evil force from the underground abyss.

Its body was thick and powerful, and every slow wriggle could easily shake the surrounding ground, making it daunting. Behind it, there was a huge tail that was more than ten meters long. It was extremely agile and constantly swayed with its wiggling.

This demonic beast python’s entire body emitted a monstrous baleful aura, causing people to involuntarily feel endless fear and dread.

The long hiss carried a wave of deterrence.

He Qingge was a little surprised. Its appearance was similar to the records in the burly man’s diary, but how did the burly man escape from the python’s mouth?

At present, several Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators had besieged it, but they had not broken through its defense.

How did a person with no cultivation base escape from here?

Could it be that the top of the mountain was the entrance to the Immortal Destiny test, but the exit was somewhere else after the test was over?

He Qingge thought about many things, but his eyes were still fixed on the battlefield.

The strength of this giant python was somewhat terrifying. Several Foundation Establishment Realm disciples attacked it together, but they were unable to break through its defense in a short period of time.

Unfortunately, He Qingge was too far away to use The Heart of Beast Taming to investigate.

He wanted to get close, but he was afraid that if these people accidentally let the python escape, he might be in danger after that.

It was better to wait here until the battle was over.

The way they fought was very beautiful and gorgeous. In addition, the python was surrounded by several Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators. They also had magic tools, talismans, pills, and so on.

Other than observing the battle between them, He Qingge also noticed that there was a three-leaf grass in the strange flowerbed.

Suddenly, He Qingge’s mind was filled with thoughts.

However, he remembered that the diary of the brawny man described that someone had approached the garden of exotic flowers and plants and was instantly sucked dry, leaving only his bones behind.

Soon, the outcome of the battle was determined. The huge demonic beast python actually escaped under the siege of several Foundation Establishment Realm experts.

He Qingge was a little shocked. Its vitality and defense were really strong.

Many attacks hit its scales, but they did not cause any destructive damage.

Fortunately, it was slithering in the opposite direction of the mountain.

Otherwise, they could only give up on this mountain and leave.

Seeing that the giant python was chased away, a few Foundation Establishment Realm experts began to openly search for items.

He Qingge was surprised that a Foundation Establishment Realm expert had used a special method to pick the spiritual grass, but his body was instantly sucked dry, leaving only a skeleton.

The spiritual herb he extracted also turned into a rain of light and returned to the strange flowerbed.

The cultivator did not use his hands to touch the spiritual herb.

However, the final outcome was the same. He instantly turned into a dried corpse, without any strength to resist.

The remaining few Foundation Establishment Realm experts were also frightened by this scene and distanced themselves from that strange flowerbed.

He Qingge was also a little shocked. This was a Foundation Establishment Realm expert, not some nobody. He was gone just like that.

“Where’s that place, Master? What kind of spiritual herb is it? Why has there never been any records of it?” Su Zimei sat in the sky in disbelief.

The Peak Master did not answer directly. “Now do you know why I want them to come back alive?”

“It’s just a mountain in the mortal world. There’s not even a first grade spirit vein inside, but it can actually support such a giant python and this strange land of flowers and plants.

“I’ve searched through many ancient books, but I couldn’t find any of these strange plants. I’m not sure what they are.

“However, it can be seen that this place is very extraordinary. Perhaps a mighty figure left behind an inheritance here.

“That’s why the content of this assessment is opportunity, fortune, and luck.”

She had indeed discovered the peculiarity of this place long ago, but she had never been able to find out what was so special about it.

She did not know what these exotic flowers and herbs were used for, and she could not take them away. Once she picked them, she would immediately turn into a rain of light and disappear.

She had explored it for a long time, but there was no way.

That was why the selection was held in this place. What if a disciple with strong luck could find the secret?

“Then why did you agree to let me follow? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell my father about this secret place?” Zheng Xiaoling asked curiously..
