The Mysterious Valley at the Peak of the Snow Mountain

After going through countless difficulties and obstacles, Lin Yue, Li Yi, and Su Yao finally reached the peak of the snow mountain. In front of them was a valley surrounded by clouds and mist, and a mysterious aura filled the valley.

"This is the place. The Millennium Snow Ginseng is most likely growing in this valley." Su Yao pointed at the valley, her eyes full of anticipation. Li Yi and Lin Yue exchanged a glance, and their eyes were also filled with hope.

They walked into the valley cautiously. The valley was full of jagged rocks, and a white mist filled the surroundings, making it difficult to see the road ahead. Lin Yue tightly grasped Li Yi's hand, feeling a bit scared. Li Yi felt Lin Yue's nervousness and gently patted her hand.

"Miss Lin, don't be afraid. I'm here."

Suddenly, Lin Yue slipped and almost fell. Li Yi quickly held her up, only to find that there was a bottomless ice cave under her feet.

"Be careful. There are traps everywhere in this valley."

Su Yao reminded. They moved forward even more carefully, observing the surrounding environment carefully with each step.

As they walked, they heard a strange sound. The sound seemed to come from underground, low and dull, making people feel creepy.

"What's that sound?"

Lin Yue asked in horror.

Su Yao's face was solemn.

"I don't know either. I've never heard this sound before. Maybe it's some kind of wild beast in the valley."

Li Yi gripped his sword tightly and watched the surroundings warily.

"Everyone, be careful. Be ready to deal with the danger at any time."

Just then, a huge ice beast emerged from the ice cave. The ice beast was huge in size, covered with a thick layer of hard ice all over its body. Its eyes glowed with a red light, looking extremely fierce.

"Not good. It's the Ice Soul Beast!"

Su Yao exclaimed.

Li Yi immediately stood in front of Lin Yue and Su Yao.

"Miss Su, take care of Miss Lin. I'll deal with it."

After saying that, he brandished his sword and charged towards the Ice Soul Beast. The Ice Soul Beast roared and pounced towards Li Yi.

Li Yi engaged in a fierce battle with the Ice Soul Beast. The Ice Soul Beast was extremely powerful, and each of its attacks made the ground shake. Li Yi was injured in several places, but he still resisted tenaciously. Lin Yue watched Li Yi fighting with the Ice Soul Beast, feeling extremely anxious. She suddenly remembered that among the herbs she had brought, there was one that could weaken the power of the Ice Soul Beast.

She quickly took out the herbs, prepared them into a potion, and then sprinkled the potion on the Ice Soul Beast. After being hit by the potion, the ice layer on the Ice Soul Beast's body began to melt, and its power gradually weakened. Li Yi took the opportunity to launch an attack and stabbed the Ice Soul Beast in a vital spot with his sword. The Ice Soul Beast let out a scream, fell to the ground, and stopped moving.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, and they continued to move forward. In the depths of the valley, they finally found a plant emitting a strange light.

"This is the Millennium Snow Ginseng!"

Lin Yue exclaimed excitedly.

Li Yi and Su Yao were also very excited. They had finally found the Millennium Snow Ginseng.

However, just as they were about to pick the Millennium Snow Ginseng, suddenly, a group of people dressed in black emerged from all directions. The leader of the black-clothed men was exactly the accomplice of the mysterious person who had been subdued by Li Yi before.

"Hand over the Millennium Snow Ginseng, or you'll all die." The black-clothed man said coldly.

Li Yi protected the Millennium Snow Ginseng behind him.

"Don't even think about it. We've gone through countless hardships to find this Millennium Snow Ginseng. We will never give it to you."

The black-clothed man sneered.

"Then don't blame us for being ruthless."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and the black-clothed men rushed towards Li Yi and the others one after another.

A new battle broke out again. Li Yi, Lin Yue, and Su Yao fought a life-and-death battle with the black-clothed men. Although Lin Yue didn't know martial arts, she used her wisdom and herbs to help Li Yi and Su Yao. During the intense battle, Li Yi found that the martial arts of these black-clothed men were stronger than those they had encountered before, and they gradually began to struggle to hold them off.

Just then, Su Yao suddenly shouted.

"Everyone, follow me."

She led Li Yi and Lin Yue and ran towards the depths of the valley. The black-clothed men chased closely behind. They turned left and right in the valley and finally got rid of the black-clothed men.

"Let's find a place to hide first and go out after they leave."

Su Yao said.

They found a hidden cave in the valley and hid inside. It was very quiet in the cave, and they quietly listened to the movements outside, waiting for the black-clothed men to leave.
