Let's not mention Lu Bu for now, speaking of another, after Liu Bei led his army out of the Western Regions, they took a different path.
Since the journey was mostly through deep mountains and great marshes, teeming with wild beasts, they could only march while cutting through mountains and forests, driving away the beasts, forging ahead to create a road that reached to the heavens.
Fortunately, from top to bottom, they were all martial artists with cultivation in martial arts. Though the going was tough, they were not afraid of such harsh environments.
Continuing westward in this manner, they finally arrived at the territory of White Tiger Ridge.
It is often said that high mountains harbor monsters and steep ridges breed spirits.
Atop White Tiger Ridge was Skull Cave, home to a corpse demon known as the White Bone Lady, with over a thousand little demons serving under her.
