"For now, I won't die, but..." Lin Mo's lips curled into a bitter smile. However, the True Yuan in his entire body had collapsed. At present, he could not even reach the Galaxy Level, and his strength was severely damaged. It would take some time to fully recover.

"Let's find a place to rest first. I don't think that person can follow us. The space transmission array there collapsed the moment we entered the array," Zhou Xinyue supported Lin Mo's arm and nodded with pursed lips.

They were currently situated in an expansive ice plateau that seemed boundless, with towering white snow-capped mountains standing dreamily in this region, and the cold energy spread like a tidal wave throughout the entire area.

The violent icy wind raged wildly, and halfway up a snowy mountain, there was a sizable cave. Zhou Xinyue helped Lin Mo into the cave, then took out some elixirs and handed them to Lin Mo, "Lord Lin Tanyu, these elixirs are treasures for healing injuries, please take them quickly."

"Alright, thank you." Lin Mo didn't stand on ceremony and swallowed the elixirs from Zhou Xinyue. He then took out the Green Wood Token that Zhou Xinyue had given him.

The Green Wood Token was about palm-sized, exuding a faint green light, which was filled with a vibrant aura, as if this vitality could dispel the boundless solitude.

After taking the elixirs, Lin Mo sat cross-legged, placing his palms on his knees, and slowly operated the Green Wood Skills.

At the same time, the faint green light on the Green Wood Token grew increasingly strong, casting a thin layer of green light over the entire cave. The small grasses growing in the crevices of the cave were nourished by this green light and suddenly began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, this fierce battle was extremely brutal for Lin Mo. In the earlier battle with Li Ling, most of his True Yuan was consumed. When he encountered Marquis Mu later, he was already at the end of his rope, forcibly endured his attack, and if not for the Blood Python, he might not even have had the chance to enter the space array.

This injury was undoubtedly the most severe one Lin Mo had suffered since leaving Yu Lan Star. His True Yuan was chaotic, with most of the meridians severed. If he weren't holding on with sheer willpower, he might have fainted at that time.

"I'm still too weak. Encountering a Star Domain Level expert, I had no chance to resist whatsoever," Lin Mo sighed quietly in his heart.

Originally, he thought he had various trump cards and that even his combat power could defeat Luo Hong of the Star System Level Intermediate stage, making him somewhat complacent and proud. However, Marquis Mu's appearance completely shattered that complacency.

The path of a strong person is endless... Only by always maintaining a humble, earnest, and determined heart, proceeding alone, and looking back when there is no road ahead one day, can one truly understand the loneliness of being a master!

This time, not only did he suffer severe injuries, but what pained Lin Mo the most was the soul coins. Over the years, the millions of soul coins accumulated were nearly exhausted on the Blood Python. Only now did Lin Mo truly understand that the spaceship was simply a bloodthirsty beast. Without overwhelming strength, just the spaceship's consumption was not a burden that an ordinary expert could bear.

For three consecutive days, Lin Mo stayed in the cave to cultivate and recover from his injuries, while Zhou Xinyue remained at the cave entrance to protect Lin Mo.

However, this time the injuries were too severe to recover completely in just a few days, but with the help of the Green Wood Token, the recovery speed was enhanced several times.

"It seems it'll take about half a month to fully recover, and also requires some elixirs for assistance."

After recuperating for three days, Lin Mo finally opened his eyes again, his dark pupils as deep as the ocean, occasionally flashing with a glimmer of light.

"Lord Lin Tanyu, you're awake?" Hearing the commotion inside the cave, Zhou Xinyue also opened her eyes, a gentle smile appearing on her charming face, though her long eyelashes bore a thin layer of ice crystals due to prolonged meditation at the cave entrance, exposed to wind and frost.

"Yes, I've recovered two or three layers," Lin Mo took a deep breath and then put the Green Wood Token back into the Space Ring. Now, relying on this kind of recuperation no longer had much effect; to truly regain his strength, he needed to refine a few Healing Holy Medicine.

"Didn't I tell you not to call me Lord Lin Tanyu? You can call me Mr. Lin or Mr. Lin."

Lin Mo chuckled softly and said plainly.

Seeing the ice crystals condensed on Zhou Xinyue's eyelashes, it seemed she hadn't rested these past few days and had been guarding the cave entrance to prevent anyone or beasts from intruding.

"Alright, Mr. Lin." Zhou Xinyue smiled.

Just as the two were talking, their expressions both slightly changed, as they sensed some energy fluctuation occurring not far from them, with several extremely violent auras.

"Mr. Lin, should we leave here?" Zhou Xinyue frowned slightly. Given Lin Mo's injuries weren't fully healed, it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"It's alright, let's go have a look." Lin Mo's eyes indeed lit up, as he spoke.

Although he hadn't fully recovered his strength yet, those auras weren't very strong and posed no threat to him.

"Alright." Zhou Xinyue nodded, and the two immediately transformed into agile arcs of light, leaping and moving forward atop the snowy mountain. Soon, they appeared behind a large boulder, covered in a thick layer of snow.

In front of the boulder, a dozen armored men wielding sharp blades were fighting a group of ice leopards. The ice leopards appeared semi-transparent, exuding the fierce aura of beasts, with as many as several dozen, their strength levels probably around Star Lake Level.

The human side was clearly at a disadvantage. One man's arm was ripped off by an ice leopard, with blood spilling onto the pristine snow, stark and striking. Following that, another ice leopard immediately pounced and bit off the latter's neck.

This fierce battle continued for roughly a minute, leaving only five armored men desperately fending off the ice leopards.

"Damn it, I didn't expect these beasts to be so numerous this time. If we don't eliminate them quickly... we might all die here." Among the five, a middle-aged man with thick brows furrowed tightly, his face showing a grave expression, while the aura around him became extremely intense.

"Sir, you are our Snow Country's great general, and the Second Prince is still waiting for you to bring back the 'Ice Flame Holy Milk'. We'll hold off these beasts, you should leave first," said another man covered in bloodstains.

"We're brothers born out of life and death, I absolutely cannot watch you die here. Even if I survive, I would live in guilt for a lifetime." The leading middle-aged man's expression was stern as True Yuan surged from his body continuously. This person, unexpectedly, was a Star Sea Level Early Stage expert.
