While I was restoring my spiritual and physical strength, I began to think about where I should go first, I definitely need to plunder several cities extreme to the north, it's time to fill my lack of information, their location will be easy to find, over the past 2.5 thousand years I have not in vain collected spatial mentors souls, I have accumulated heaps of various maps and books, and even if I cannot read them, but I am quite capable of understanding the mark of cities, of course, most of the small cities have most likely disappeared during this time, but large cities, especially on newly mined maps, should remain , of course, the risk of finding strong spirit masters in large cities is greater, but now no one except the titled fighting spirits of the attacking class can harm me, not to mention murder, and the chance that such a spirit master will end up in an ordinary large city, which is even the capital the province is not so small that I have not even considered it.

In addition, I have preserved mountains of medicinal materials, albeit I do not know their purpose and effect, but these are hardly heavenly treasures, therefore, although I knew that some of them could be useful, I did not pay much attention to them, time in spatial mentors, the soul is absent or flows so slowly that it is imperceptible at all, so that they did not deteriorate, and it was a pity to throw it away, even if they took up a lot of space, but it remained even more free, so I decided to keep it for myself.

The only problem I encountered was determining my route of movement, although I knew the approximate location of cities, but my starting location is not, so I began to quickly recall the stories of my mother and Bing Bing, over these thousands of years I listened to thousands of different stories from them life, so I tried to compare the terrain from their descriptions and maps, albeit the central zone is marked with a white spot marked, most likely a deadly zone, but the periphery is described very accurately, so after 10 minutes I managed to find the nearest place described on the map to the central part of the extreme north, coinciding with the place from the description of Bing Bing, after all, there are not many mountain ranges in the far north with lakes nearby, next to one of these mountains there is a territory of a snow lotus with cultivation of 50 thousand years, so I decided to go there from the beginning, of course the lotus can to be already dead, because she met him 15 thousand years ago, but at the place where such a strong vegetable beast grew, the spirit and most likely there will be several rare herbs, of course I may not find anything there, but for me now the priority is to find out my exact location.

While I was thinking out my initial plan of action, my exhausted spiritual and physical strength managed to recover, so, taking off quickly, I headed towards that mountain range. Of course, flying in the central part of the far north is very dangerous, even if not like in the forest of the star dhow, there are still much less flying spirit animals in the north, but this makes them no weaker than their forest counterparts, but now I did not pay attention to it , just a few decades ago, I learned to keep my breathing under control, so that I was not felt from the ground, so I calmly continued to fly among the clouds in the direction I needed and thought about what places I can visit now, of course I do not I'll climb, even if the chance to meet a strong title doulou is almost zero, but it is, the center of the far north, where the snow empress lives, is also inaccessible to me now, of course, she is unlikely to attack me for no reason, but I still don't want to try, so no , it is also better not to meddle on the territory of the clan of ice demons-titans, even if there is only one hundred-thousand-year-old individual, but even with him I cannot compete, after all, they are known for their strength and protection, not shy yelling already about dozens of ten thousand years old who will be able to stutter me in a crowd. Of course, it is undesirable to climb into the territory of other spirit animals of a hundred thousand years in the same way.

Three days later.

Flying up to the territory of the ice lotus, I began to notice a decrease in the number of spirit beasts, of course, the density of the settlement of spirit beasts in the north is small, but here for more than an hour I had not met a single even ten-year-old beast of the spirit, which was very alarming, so I decided to fly higher, however, as soon as I flew over a mountain ridge and I got a view of a small frozen lake, I was immediately attacked by flying ice thorns, given that I was at an altitude of more than a kilometer, to say that I was surprised, to say nothing, but this did not stop me instantly start dodging. Although this was unexpected, from which I did not immediately understand, but the ice spikes flew rather slowly, so that, continuing to dodge, I began to descend and in a minute I saw the appearance of the attacker, namely a blue and white lotus with a diameter of about 5 meters, which was in fog at the very edge of the lake, which made it impossible to immediately see it. Considering Bing Bing's story, that ice lotus was about 50 thousand years old and about 10 meters in diameter, so this is not it.

this ice lotus is likely 25,000 years old, so its predecessor is probably dead.

Well, even if I did not find a 50 thousand-year-old snow lotus, a 25 thousand-year-old one is also good, it still means that something else could have survived or grow again after the death of the previous owner of the territory, so, without becoming wise, I decided to simply uproot and eat it with your paws, because the snow lotus is rich in crystal clear vital energy, and ice energy is present in it, so this should be very useful for me.

Of course, this was not difficult, for the lotus is a vegetable beast of the spirit, and after a minute I regretted that I had not found 50 thousand years old here, although it would have been about 70 thousand years old and the effect would have been even greater, for the feeling when a wave of pure life force passes through your body, so pleasant and intoxicating that I can not even imagine what it would be like to swallow a 70 thousand year old lotus.

After regaining control over my emotions, I began to check what the absorption of the 25 thousand-year-old snow lotus brought me, I already visually noticed that I slightly increased in size from 13 meters to 15, the scales shrank a little, although in density, on the contrary, they increased, so my cultivation base has increased to 30 thousand years, but I feel that there is still a lot of vitality left, so, most likely, my cultivation will go faster until it is completely used up. Although the effect is amazing, I can hardly find a few more snow lotuses of this age, it is still a plant spirit beast that is tied to its territory, the past 50 thousand year old snow lotus was probably the oldest of their species, so without hoping to experience this feeling again, began to examine the area, something valuable from medicinal herbs, but should be here.

Having found several hundred strange herbs, and collecting them into soul mentors, he decided to stick to the plan and go to the human city, so, taking off, he set off towards the nearest and largest city, which was marked on the map. Of course, I understood what I was going for, even if I didn't want extra sacrifices, but I'm not going to deprive myself of critical information for the sake of hundreds of people I didn't know. Of course, I'm not going to be a butcher and carve out the whole city, I just don't need to touch ordinary people, most of the knowledge and resources are concentrated in the hands of the sects, so I'm only going to attack them, but even I am not going to cut them at the root, after all, they are They haven't done anything to me, and even in a sense they will help me, "share" their knowledge and resources. Of course, there will be casual victims, but they are no longer my business.

P.S. His thinking is slowly changing due to being a dragon, and before that he was not a moral phage, so do not blame him for ruthlessness.
