Afterward, the group continued their ascent. The blizzard grew fiercer, and the fog cloaking the mountain thickened so that visibility was reduced to less than two meters.

At that moment, a roar echoed, accompanied by a sharp claw. The power contained within it was undoubtedly that of a Dominator Demon Beast.

Logan immediately struck back, and just as he had slain that demonic beast, he turned around to find Thornwell Nango and the others in dire straits, each battling their own demon beasts.

Based on the howls, there were about thirty or forty demon beasts, and they were clearly targeting their group, surrounding them from all directions.

Though the disciples of Thornwell Nango’s sect were only at throne level, they were holding their own against the formidable demon beasts thanks to the divine runes Logan had given them. Realizing they couldn’t drag this out as he had only made a hundred divine runes that would be exhausted in a moment, Logan understood time was of the essence.

It was unrealistic to slay all these demon beasts, especially since Logan was unsure if there were others nearby. What if the beasts had reinforcements? The best strategy was to scare them off.

To do that, they needed one person to demonstrate overwhelming power, and that person had to be Logan. As long as he released his aura at Half-step Saint Seat or Quasi-Saint level, he had no doubt that these demon beasts, sensitive to the oppressive aura of realms, would flee.

Logan barked an order and immediately brought out his divine weapon, then employed every technique at his disposal, drawing upon dozens of Law’s Forces. The power was no less than that of a Quasi-Saint Seat, which instilled fear in the beasts, prompting them to scatter like smoke.

“The higher we climb, the more dangerous it becomes. Everyone must be prepared!” Logan looked back at everyone and then continued to lead the way alone.

They had already spotted the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, and at the summit, there must be centennial snow lotuses. To Thornwell Nango, he was determined to save his father.

Thus, fear wasn’t an option for anyone, despite the fact that several had been injured by the beasts. They conducted simple treatments and pressed on through the blizzard, knowing they couldn’t afford to stop.

After an indeterminate time, they arrived at the edge of a steep cliff. Climbing up thousands of meters to reach the summit would be easy for cultivators of their caliber, they could have flown up there.

But a Great Divine Power suppressed the area, preventing flight. Even if they tried to force it, the piercing blizzard would push them back. With no alternative, they had to climb, which presented little difficulty for Logan as the suppression from the Divine Skill was minimal.

To clear a path for the others, he climbed with great caution, even taking the time to carve out notches to make it easier for those following.

After a lengthy ordeal, they finally reached the top of the snowy mountain. From a distance, the summit looked like a spire, but in reality, it was a flat plateau.

Even with the persistent fog, Logan could discern with his spiritual sense that the plateau spanned several thousand meters, sprinkled with numerous medicinal herbs.

Of course, the most important were the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotuses. These were older than any he’d seen before, with many already decades old – yet none reached the century mark.

As Logan circled the area, his gaze fixed on a light in the midst of the fog, seemingly emitted by a snow lotus. But as he approached, a terrifying demon beast suddenly appeared; its aura alone was enough to rank it at the Half-step Saint Seat.

The presence of such a high-level demon beast guarding it was a clear indication that the snow lotus was extremely ancient, at the very least a century old, if not several times older.

Fighting a Half-step Saint Seat demon beast on the summit was unwise; Logan couldn’t fully unleash his abilities due to the suppressive blizzard, while the beast, having dwelled atop this peak for years, had its power amplified.

Yet Logan knew he had to defeat the beast to claim the snow lotus, so he drew his divine weapon and engaged in combat with it.

Thornwell Nango and the others approached, wanting to help, but Bart Cloud stopped them, knowing that their interference would only add to Logan’s difficulties. After all, a throne-level cultivator could hardly withstand even one strike from a battle of half-step Saint Seat caliber.

Bart Cloud then drew his sword to assist Logan. As a cultivator of the Dominator Realm with formidable combat power, he too could take on the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast. With Bart Cloud’s help, Logan faced less pressure, and together they suppressed the beast.

Thornwell Nango and the other disciples could only look on from the side. That’s when Logan roared, “Take the opportunity to gather the snow lotuses. What are you waiting for, standing there like fools?”

Upon hearing this, Thornwell Nango had an epiphany. While the beast was preoccupied, he swiftly approached the snow lotuses. Confirming they were indeed the centennial kind as described in the books, and elated that his father’s salvation was within reach, he prepared to harvest them.

But just at that moment, a black-clothed man suddenly appeared and snatched the snow lotus before him. This black-clothed man was a practitioner from the Orthodox Demonic Sect.

Enraged, Thornwell Nango lunged at the intruder, but as the man had reached the Dominator Realm, Nango stood no chance and was sent flying with a single palm strike.

Holding the snow lotus, the black-clothed man pulled down his veil and said, “How interesting. This will contribute nicely to the Sect Leader’s breakthrough in realm at the Orthodox Demonic Sect!”

This man was Benjamin Blackwood from the Orthodox Demonic Sect. He had intended to kill Thornwell Nango with sheer force the previous day but Logan’s unexpected intervention had thwarted his plans.
