The Indomitable Master of Elixirs

The lake in the Forest of Freedom was called Moonlight Lake and was the only source of water in the forest. Ji Fengyan swam in the lake-water for a day and occasionally saw the creatures in the forest coming to drink water.

Besides the green creatures from last night, Ji Fengyan also saw other living creatures in the Forest of Freedom. There were some huge and ferocious beasts that had an extremely dangerous aura, and they were the ones rumoured to the most dangerous creatures in the Free Valley previously.

However…

When the ferocious beasts stepped into the Moonlight Lake, they became unusually quiet. Even if there were some small animals drinking water beside them, they also did not attack them.

This made Ji Fengyan feel magical.

The Rhinoceros Beast that lay by the lake watched as all the living beings moved to and fro the lake. It lifted its head, as if it could sense Ji Fengyan’s doubt, and explained patiently.

[The Forest of Freedom had its own rule. The Moonlight Lake is the only source of water in the forest so any creature needed it to survive, so fighting is prohibited at this place.]

This was the law in the Forest of Freedom, and it was in the heads of all the creatures surviving in the Forest of Freedom.

The ferocious beasts could hunt freely in any other place in the Forest of Freedom. So long as they did not kill too many lives, they would not be stopped from hunting. However, they had to behave differently at the Moonlight Lake.

Ji Fengyan swam to the side of the lake. She rested her wet arms above the lake surface and moved her legs freely in the water.

“This is amazing. I have never seen a place with this much spiritual energy before.”

This was definitely a paradise for immortal cultivators. Any immortal cultivator who had found this precious place would undoubtedly go crazy for it. Cultivating at the Forest of Freedom would save them a lot of time and with the purity of spiritual energy there, it would make their vital energy accumulate more efficiently.

[Spiritual energy?] The Rhinoceros Beast tilted its head, obviously not understand what Ji Fengyan had meant.

Ji Fengyan smiled but remained silent.

Suddenly, the birds in the forest flew in all directions, causing the peace in the Moonlight Lake to change to an eerie feeling. The animals that had been drinking water on land suddenly stopped and looked up in the same direction.

Ji Fengyan also looked there. In the dense forest, she could faintly spot a dark figure.

A disgusting stench came from that direction.

The Rhinoceros Beast suddenly stood up and walked towards that dark figure.

A tall figure walked out slowly from the dense forest and its appearance made all the animals by the Moonlight Lake panic. That was a black living being that could not be seen clearly. It was as if there was a layer of thick fur over its body and the fur had black liquid stuck to it. With each step taken, that disgusting liquid dripped from its leg to the grass.

The grass that had contact with the liquid instantly wilted and black smoke formed.

That monster walked out of the forest and seemed to want to move towards the Moonlight Lake, but the Rhinoceros Beast blocked its way.

[You do not belong here.] The Rhinoceros Beast’s voice sounded. Its tone was filled with warning, and it lowered its head to reveal the horns on its head.

The black monster did not dare to take another step forward after being blocked by the Rhinoceros Beast, but under its thick and dirty fur, its oily green eyes stared straight at Ji Fengyan, who was laying by the lake.
