This was not only because of the training of the Ten Days Sword Formation. It was also because after the battle with Elder Jiang, she had a new understanding of the profound meaning of the Maha Heart Sutra. Although her current cultivation had not improved significantly, her skills and combat experience were by no means comparable to what they were before.

Gu Liufeng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In this way, if nothing unexpected happens, no one should be able to threaten you when you go to the hunting competition."

"You are just worrying too much." He Xi chuckled, "I'll go in and wash up first. I plan to set off for Broken Soul Mountain this afternoon."

As the name suggests, the Soul-Breaking Mountain is a place where ordinary people can never return once they enter.

The Broken Soul Mountain stretches for thousands of kilometers from south to north, spanning three countries. It is a mountain range more vast than the Cangshan Mountain.

The main peak of Broken Soul Mountain is located in Jinling Country. It is shrouded in thick fog all year round and is haunted by countless monsters. The level of the monsters in it is second only to the Monster Forest.

And the most important thing is that most of the monsters in the Soul-Breaking Mountain have lost their rationality and are brutal and cruel, which is completely different from the monsters in the Monster Forest that are cunning and treacherous and can even transform into human form. Therefore, almost no one is willing to set foot in the Soul-Breaking Mountain on weekdays.

However, because the monsters in the Soul-Breaking Mountain are so ferocious that they often run down the mountain to harm mortals, the ancestors of the four major sects set up a huge formation around the main peak of the Soul-Breaking Mountain to prohibit those monsters from coming out to harm people, and of course also restrict the entry of other warriors.

Later, no one knew from which year, the four major sects opened up a relatively safe place in the main peak of Broken Soul Mountain, which contained a large number of magical beasts below level six that could be hunted, but would not attract other high-level magical beasts in the mountain.

In the hunting competition held every four years, all participants will be sent to the competition field through the teleportation array and then go to hunt monsters. Every time a monster is hunted and an inner elixir is obtained, a point will be recorded. Whoever has the highest point will become the champion of this hunting competition.

As hunting competitions were held more and more frequently, more and more warriors from the entire Miluo Continent flocked to participate.

Because getting good results in the hunting competition will not only bring generous rewards, but also gain the favor of major sects.

As for the elite disciples of the major sects, if they perform well in the hunting competition, they will naturally win honor for their own sect. From then on, they will be able to obtain a large amount of resources within the sect and rise rapidly.

Jinling was originally just a small country. The annual hunting conference could be held in Jinling, which could be attributed to the geographical location of the main peak of Broken Soul Mountain.

So naturally, whether it is the royal family or the sect of Jinling, they will treat this hunting competition as a top priority. And there are very few people in Jinling who can receive the invitation letter to participate in the hunting competition.

He Xi was about to walk into the house after he finished speaking, but Wu Xin's figure suddenly appeared from the side.

Without waiting for He Xi to say anything, he stuffed the thing in his hand into He Xi's arms and said in a deep voice: "Princess, please be sure to wear this jade slip during the hunting competition. At the critical moment, it may help you get through the difficulties."

When he said this, Wuxin's face looked very ugly, as if he was full of anxiety and uneasiness. But soon, his expression changed into a sincere request.

He Xi held the jade slip in his hand and looked around. It was just an ordinary jade slip, light green in color, without any special features.

She raised her head, met Wuxin's pleading expression, and couldn't help but sigh: "Okay, I'll take it." (To be continued)
