All Heavens Travel Together: Starting from the Great Xuanhuang World

Chapter 4 The One Yuan Immortal Sect, Viper's Inner Gallbladder
Hanwang City, Nanshan.

This place, far from the mountains behind the imperial palace, was a hunting ground for the imperial family members of the Han Dynasty.

The dynasty designated an area of ​​hundreds of miles as a hunting ground, which contained countless ferocious beasts. Few members of the royal family were willing to come here, for fear of dying an unknown death.

But at this moment, in the biting cold wind, a group of people on horseback, accompanied by hunting dogs, carrying bows and arrows, and dressed in luxurious brocade robes, entered the mountains.

They showed no regard for the ferocious beasts in the South Mountain, as if they were entering their own backyard!
This group of people was naturally Yang Li and Princess Fu Yuan's entourage.

"Phew! This Nanshan looks like it's filled with smog. It seems the immortal masters of the Yiyuan Sect are coming again!"

Princess Fu Yuan spurred her horse and looked at the distant mountains, a dark mass of tall trees that blocked out the sun. From time to time, the roars of wild beasts echoed from the forest, striking fear into the hearts of all.

Normally, even if Princess Fu Yuan had ten times the courage, she wouldn't have come here, because there are many ferocious beasts here, and even some monsters that have become spirits and are hiding inside.

Every time the Han Dynasty came to Nanshan for the autumn hunt, it would invite the immortal masters of the Yiyuan Sect to sweep away the beasts. The dynasty could obtain a large amount of beast meat and also use this opportunity to test the strength of the royal disciples, achieving multiple benefits in one fell swoop.

"I heard from the palace eunuchs that the Yiyuan Sect will be coming to recruit disciples in a few days. The Emperor plans to have the Crown Prince receive them. It seems he wants to test the Crown Prince before passing the throne to him."

Hong Lie carefully considered his words before answering Princess Fu Yuan's question.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Just then, the dozen or so hunting dogs running ahead started barking fiercely. At the same time, as they barked, the dogs arched their backs like cats, with the fur on their backs standing on end!

These hunting dogs are the size of calves, with sharp teeth. They are trained using special secret methods to hunt large wild animals such as tigers, leopards, pythons, wolves, and deer!
"Have you spotted a viper?"

Yang Li, who had been silent all along, reached out and raised his hand towards the horse, and a longbow came into his hand.

"The one-horned viper is intelligent and might even have some tricks up its sleeve. But this time it still couldn't escape my grasp. I've heard that the gallbladder of this beast can strengthen the body and replenish vital energy, so I have to try it!"

Yang Li took the lead, spurring his horse, Wanli Xue, and charged wildly. The horse was like a dragon, its hooves kicking up clouds of dust that startled the birds in the southern mountains, who fled in panic!

"Let's follow too!"

Princess Fu Yuan cracked her whip, her face filled with excitement. She was clearly having a rare experience, following behind Yang Li. It gave her the feeling of accompanying her father on a campaign, conquering the world on horseback!
The guards, naturally not daring to disobey their master's will, spurred their horses and rushed towards the place where the mastiffs were barking!
Wang Wang!

The barking grew more urgent, and a dozen or so calves-sized wolves barked, their voices almost capable of shattering metal and breaking stone!

Yang Li reined in his horse and brought it to a sudden stop. Just as he stopped, a foul stench swept over him from behind.

Turning around abruptly, he saw a giant serpent with a single horn, its body thicker than his waist. It opened its blood-red maw and lunged at him, its mouth reeking of foul odor, its sharp teeth clearly indicating a high level of intelligence!
"What a beast!"

Yang Li remained calm and composed, leaping off his horse and landing on an open space to the side, thus avoiding being swallowed whole.

"Thirteenth Master!" Hong Lie's face turned pale as he watched from behind. He hadn't expected that this beast would be so cunning, managing to bypass the hunting dogs and ambush them on the road!

"It's alright." Yang Li dusted off his clothes and leisurely began to examine it. "What a ferocious one-horned python!"

Its scales were a pale iron-blue color, and its single horn on its head had a smooth, lustrous sheen, making it seem indestructible! Moreover, its snake eyes, as they looked at Yang Li, even possessed a hint of cunning intelligence!

Seeing that Yang Li had dodged the attack, the unicorn viper's eyes flashed with a fierce light. It hissed and lashed out with its tail!
"Well done!" Facing the viper's tail lashing out, Yang Li roared, his five fingers grabbing out with lightning speed, like a tiger or leopard pouncing, tearing the scales on the tail to shreds and leaving it covered in blood!

The one-horned viper was immediately in pain, and its eyes seemed to show fear. It realized that its opponent was far superior to itself, so it immediately curled up and fled down the tree!

However, in the instant it fled, a standard-issue rifle pierced its body, pinning it to the tree trunk, and it died instantly.

Normally, such a huge unicorn viper has an incredibly strong vitality. Even if it is pinned down, it will not die and can fight like a trapped beast!
However, it was Yang Li who made the move. His physical strength was now too strong, almost comparable to Hong Lie, who was at the tenth level of the physical body. Even a slight scratch would lead to death!
These two consecutive moves were swift, decisive, and fierce, demonstrating Yang Li's extraordinary skills!
“Thirteenth brother, you actually killed such a one-horned viper. Your strength has completely surpassed that of the royal elders. It seems that Father’s decision not to make you the crown prince was the biggest mistake he ever made.”

Princess Fu Yuan looked at the long, winding viper corpse with a complicated expression. It was as if she were looking at a figure from a mythological story, which completely shattered her understanding of the world!
"It's nothing, just a big beast. A few of you, cut out its gallbladder."

Yang Li drew his spear, and the body of the one-horned viper crashed to the ground, scattering a large amount of withered branches and leaves!

Several guards hurriedly stepped forward, drew their sharp diamond knives from the gaps created by the spears, and began cutting into the unicorn viper's body.

In no time, a piece of skin was peeled off the unicorn viper and quickly made into a large bundle.

One of the guards cut open the viper's abdomen and pulled out a bright red gall bladder, which looked like a gemstone. This was the gall bladder of the one-horned viper.

This is a natural elixir that strengthens the body and nourishes the vital energy. People who consume it will have immense strength. If it were sold in a dynasty, it would be priceless!
"Fourth Sister, you should take this beast's gallbladder back and eat it. It would be best to give it to the Imperial Kitchen and have them cook it with old medicinal herbs and mountain delicacies to make a medicinal dish. Once you eat it, you can break through to the fifth level of divine power."

Yang Li glanced at the inner liner and said nonchalantly.

"Alright! Then I thank you very much, Thirteenth Brother!" Princess Fu Yuan's beautiful eyes sparkled, her excitement beyond words.

It should be understood that as a princess of a dynasty, while enjoying rights, she often also had to bear the obligation of marriage alliances.

However, if she can break through the realm of divine power, she can become a disciple of the One Yuan Sect, embark on the path of immortality, get rid of her status as a marriage alliance member, and gain true freedom!

"It's nothing," Yang Li waved his hand.

"Reporting to the Thirteenth Prince, the mastiffs have been spotted again ahead!"

The sound of horses' hooves approached, and the guards who had been chasing the mastiffs returned.

"it is good!"

Yang Li knew there couldn't be only one unicorn viper in this area, so he mounted his horse and headed towards the mastiff.

"Let's go, let's hurry over there!" Princess Fu Yuan called out, then mounted her horse. She was excited, especially now that she had the inner chariot, and the future looked bright!
At this moment, Hong Lie had finished dealing with the flesh and blood of the unicorn viper, arranged for the guards to drag it away, and then hurriedly mounted his horse to give chase!

With the mastiff leading the way, Yang Li soon arrived at his destination, but his brows were furrowed, clearly indicating that he was in a bad mood.

In the open area ahead, more than a dozen giant wolves, their bodies entirely blood-red and their fur slick with oil, were devouring several corpses.

These corpses were actually human. You could vaguely see armor and weapons scattered around, with flame patterns of the Han Dynasty's royal family printed on them!

Clearly, it was a group of royal family members who died here, ambushed by wild wolves!
"Ugh! Such a strong smell of blood!" As soon as Princess Fu Yuan arrived, she smelled the strong smell of blood and her expression changed drastically!
When Yang Li and Princess Fu Yuan's group arrived, the ears of the dozen or so old wolves that were gnawing on the corpse twitched and they all turned their heads around.
