It was extremely rare that Mo Fan had a chance to have a little walk in the rain with Mu Ningxue. It was supposed to be romantic. Mo Fan had already imagined the positions he was going to use later, but instead he had found himself entangled with a series of troublesome matters.

Mu Ningxue was still worried about the Marking on Mo Fan after they went back to their inn.

It sounds like the Heresy Judgment Court isnt going to let you off the hook easily. They are still keeping an eye on you, Mu Ningxue said.

Those hypocrites! Mo Fan snarled.

I heard the Heresy Judgment Court has a powerful seal they can use to track down heretics and execute them no matter where they tried to escape to, Mu Ningxue said.

Mu Ningxue was still worried about Mo Fans Demon Element. The Demon Element was just too powerful. It was difficult to avoid unnecessary casualties when using it. Judging from the Heresy Judgment Courts attitude toward Mo Fan, they would immediately mark him as a real heretic as soon as his Demon Element took an innocent life.

There would be no escape once Mo Fan was considered a heretic. The Heresy Judgment Court was cruel and merciless. It had played a huge role in purging Saint Wen Tai!

Even someone like Wen Tai could not escape the Holy Judgment Court and Heresy Judgment Courts execution. How could Mo Fan possibly stand a chance against them?

Mo Fan was fortunate that the Red Cardinal of the Black Vatican, the Cold Prince, had taken the blow for him. Otherwise, he would have had nowhere to run to once his execution was decided on.

The Demon Element did not originate from a proper source. Many magic organizations had forbidden it. Commander Lu Nian had continued to experiment on it after it was banned by the Magic Association. He ended up creating a few monsters, but the powerful Forbidden Art somehow ended up in Mo Fans hands, and had merged perfectly with his Double Innate Elements to create the Demon Element.

Based on Pelinas explanation, Mo Fans Demon Element was indeed considered a Forbidden Art!

The power of the Demon Element is indeed a huge problem. Mo Fan let out a sigh.

Its not your fault either, you only did it to save us... Mu Ningxue grabbed Mo Fans hand.

Mo Fan did not have a choice when he acquired the power of the Demon Element. He only did it to save himself and the others.

Mu Ningxue was clueless about where Mo Fans power came from before, but after learning the truth, she could not help but feel sorry for him.

When they reached the inn, Lingling, Jiang Shaoxu, and Zhao Manyan were discussing something in the teahouse on the ground floor.

Mo Fan raised his eyebrows and asked, Did you find something?

Yes! According to the information that was leaked from the Sacred Palace, theres only one entrance to the Scar of Tianshan Mountain. As long as we find the entrance, we can keep going into the Rift Valley and reach the Scar of Tianshan Mountain, no matter how terrible the weather is, Lingling said.

So we just have to find the entrance? Mo Fan asked.

Mo Fan, you never did your homework, do you!? Jiang Shaoxu grumbled.

Mo Fan scratched his head awkwardly.

The Scar of Tianshan Mountain is at the boundless layer of thick snow and ice. The mountains are irregular, making it difficult to pinpoint the location of the Scar of Tianshan Mountain. Even those who found it before have to look for it again. Many have died while looking for it. In addition to that, the altitude of the Scar of Tianshan Mountain is exposed to strong winds that even Mages cant withstand. Those with outstanding cultivation can still be trapped forever on the mountain once they use up all their energy, Mu Ningxue explained.

Mu Ningxue had been to Tianshan Mountain. She clearly remembered everything about the place.

One more thing! The demon creatures on Tianshan Mountain are great fighters. Warrior-level and Commander-level creatures are everywhere, and Ruler-level creatures are pretty common too! Zhao Manyan added.

The Scar of Tianshan Mountain is the most dangerous place on Tianshan Mountain. Even the lesser creatures there are at the Commander-level. Its one of the reasons why the Scar of Tianshan Mountain is called the Graveyard of the Strong. The Commander-level is only the weakest level. Every human who goes there is basically delivering themselves to the demon creatures like takeaway, Jiang Shaoxu added.

Mo Fan dropped his jaw as he scanned everyones face.

Why did it feel like he was the only one who was clueless about the situation in the Scar of Tianshan Mountain?

The weakest demon creatures are at the Commander-level...

The Scar of Tianshan Mountain was beyond terrifying!

What about the entrance to the Scar of Tianshan Mountain? Mo Fan asked.

The entrance isnt really a secret. As a matter of fact, someone found it only a month ago. A group of adventurers discovered a rift valley. They keep climbing in the rift valley with no visible ends. They eventually reached the Scar of Tianshan Mountain after passing layers of barren ground, meadows, alpine, and a valley of glaciers! Lingling said.

Just like that?

That is very important. Putting aside the danger in the Scar of Tianshan Mountain, its highly possible that we will have to withdraw empty-handed if we cant locate the Scar of Tianshan Mountain. Its quite surprising that someone found the Rift Valley that serves as its entrance, Mu Ningxue said.

Those who had been to Tianshan Mountain knew the Scar of Tianshan Mountain was a never-ending topic. Many explorers had searched for it. Some had grown a lot stronger after visiting it, yet many were buried forever under the snow. Apparently, a town on Tianshan Mountain was full of posters of the people who had gone missing on the mountain. The town was populated by the family members of those who had gone missing. Some had waited for ten or twenty years, and eventually settled down at the foot of Tianshan Mountain.

Mo Fan did not do his homework researching the legendary snowy mountain. Otherwise, he would have treated the trip more seriously!

Theres one more thing. Weve gathered some information related to the Totem Beast. Someone once spotted a flying beast with mystical wings hovering above the ridgeline of Tianshan Mountain. Weve contacted the person, and he will trade us the clues. Well meet up with him once we arrive at the town, Lingling said.

Weve also heard rumors about a sacred tiger on Tianshan Mountain. This sacred tiger is closely related to one of the Sacred Totem Beasts above the level of the Black Tortoise. This information cost a lot of money, but it seems quite reliable after comparing it to the information we have, Jiang Shaoxu said.

Mo Fan nodded. He said sternly after some time, It sounds like you two have collected a lot of information, but did you learn anything useful about the Night Amethyst?

Lingling and Jiang Shaoxu exchanged glances.

Jiang Shaoxu replied with an awkward face, Well... there was too much exciting information related to Tianshan Mountain, but the Night Amethyst is rarely anyones concern, so there isnt really much information about it.

Lingling nodded in agreement.

So... you totally forgot about it? Mo Fan asked knowingly.

Thats not the case! We can still ask around now, or we can wait until we are at Tianshan Mountain, Jiang Shaoxu replied a bit too quickly.

I seriously think Mu Bai should just close his eyes and rest in peace, Mo Fan sighed, eyeing the two of them.
