Remus rode Bucky through the forest, not giving much thought to Bartholomew and the others.
Their fate was already sealed, and there was no need to dwell on the dead. His focus should be on how to handle things after entering the sacred land.
There was no need for an elaborate explanation with Glinda as revealing his true identity as Remus Cosby was enough.
She would surely shed tears of joy and rush into his embrace, knowing well that Remus Calsberg and favonovel.com were one and the same. The identity of Remus Calsberg had saved favonovel.com and been with her. Under the guise of Remus Cosby, favonovel.com had ventured into the depths of the Violet Sanctum to rescue Selena.
She would be moved beyond words.
The real challenge now is… Wilda…
Remus was somewhat worried. He had never met her, didn’t know favonovel.com at all in fact. The only thing favonovel.com knew was that favonovel.com was a person from the sacred land.
What if favonovel.com disagrees?
What if favonovel.com cultivation level is overwhelming?
What if the sacred land also disagrees?
When favonovel.com first encountered Kylie, Miranda, and Jean, and later Ana and Eva, favonovel.com felt confident in his ability to handle them. However, when it came to the sacred land, favonovel.com found himself at a loss for strategies. Even Elena Caldwell was not someone favonovel.com could deal with.
And who knew how many more masters there were in the sacred land?
We need to plan this carefully…
Remus fell into thought.
Unknowingly, favonovel.com had entered the deep parts of Longmoon Mountains, where the trees were taller and denser, with hundred-yard-tall trees everywhere.
The spread-out leaves seemed to cover the sky, creating a separate space below. Even the wild grass was as tall as six feet.
For ordinary people, it was like being in the vast ocean, completely out of sight. Even if cultivators could fly, traveling long distances would consume too much spirit energy.
Fortunately, having Bucky not only spared favonovel.com the need to navigate but also saved a lot of spirit energy.
“It’s eerily quiet here. Could there be danger?” Remus had been wondering all along.
Logically, the deeper into the mountains, the more rampant the demon beasts should be, with higher cultivation levels. Yet so far, not to mention demon beasts, even ordinary animals were rarely seen.
Bucky stopped in its tracks upon hearing this, sensing the surroundings very carefully.
Being born in the mountains and being a beast, its senses were sharper than humans’. It resumed its journey after a few seconds, shaking its head while moving, indicating there was no danger.
Remus pondered for a moment and asked, “Could it be that there are too many cultivators participating in the assessment, and the beasts don’t want to confront them head-on, so they’re all in hiding?”
Bucky had been desperately running toward the mountain at first.
During the assessment, it was safer outside the mountain than inside.
Bucky nodded and then shook its head, its eyes full of confusion, indicating it couldn’t understand.
Remus didn’t say more, but favonovel.com kept feeling something was off.
Both Bartholomew and Hadden had said that the journey to the assessment site was extremely dangerous. The danger must come from demon beasts. Moreover, the cultivation levels of the beasts in the mountain were supposed to surpass Bucky’s.
For them, humans were also a good source of nourishment, and there was no need for them to hide.
Faced with the confusion favonovel.com couldn’t unravel, Remus decided to set his concerns aside for the moment, keeping his senses sharp as favonovel.com proceeded.
After walking for 15 minutes, a dilapidated temple appeared in front.
Remus wasn’t surprised by that.
During his inspection of Longmoon Mountains, favonovel.com had come across it before. From what favonovel.com recalled, that was one of the seven temples scattered throughout the mountains.
Bucky stopped in front of the temple’s door, lying down completely, making a posture of utmost devotion.
Remus jumped off Bucky’s back, looked through the dilapidated door into the interior, and saw a platform directly in front.
Not only in front, but everywhere was covered with thick dust, cobwebs were everywhere, and a piece of the ceiling was even exposed.
“There are no offerings!”
