C53 (1/2)

Han Yan stood on her flying sword, her figure quickly moving through the forest. Not far behind him, countless streaks of light were chasing after him. The rogue cultivator leading the group was Li Ming. Li Ming's divine sense was firmly locked onto Han Yan, at the same time she shouted, ”Fellow Taoist, if you have anything to say, please say it.”

After a moment, Li Ming saw that Han Yan didn't reply and continued, ”Fellow Daoist, we've been pursuing that demonic beast for a long time. If Fellow Daoist gives it to us, we're willing to give you a satisfactory price.”

Han Yan flew quickly, with no intention of replying.

When Li Ming saw this, his expression slightly changed. The woman in red beside him said, ”Li Ming, why did you waste your time talking to him? He's only a cultivator at the 5th level of the Qi Cultivation Stage. We have so many people, how can we not catch him?”

”Did you see that? He's very strange.” As Li Ming flew, he said, ”A cultivator at the 5th level of the Refinement Stage wouldn't be able to fly so fast.”

The woman in red disagreed. ”So what? Maybe the magic tools under his feet can speed up!”

Han Yan was flying in the front of the dense forest. The pursuers were getting closer and closer, and the distance between the two sides was about to close. Han Yan's figure flashed, she suddenly accelerated and flew forward. Not long after he started flying, a series of low growls came from not far away. His face darkened as she quickly changed her direction and flew to the side.

That deep roar was the sound made by the Monstrous Beast. All the powerful Monstrous Beasts had their own territory. Demonic beasts with a better temper would let out angry roars and warn humans after they barge into their territory. If he met a demon beast with a bad temper, he would directly attack. That demonic beast was not good-natured; it was just that when it saw the many cultivators behind Han Yan, it didn't know if it was a group or not. After all, humans were too cunning. It was because of this that the demonic beast did not dare to act rashly, and so it let out a low roar, ordering the other party to leave.

”Roar!”

”Aooo!”

”Moo!”

Along the way, Han Yan had encountered countless demon beasts. Almost every time she flew for a period of time, she could hear the roars of different demon beasts. From the roars of the demon beasts, Han Yan could roughly guess their cultivation level. The previous one was at least a rank 2 demon beast, and had a human foundation establishment stage cultivation. The last one was even more powerful. Just a low roar was enough to make the blood in the body expand.

”So many demonic beasts.” Han Yan's eyes flashed. She sensed the people chasing after him and raised her head to fly forward. Don't look at how shocking this forest was, Han Yan didn't have many places to go. If this goes on, even if she wasn't chased by the people behind, she would die under the claws of the beasts.

At that moment, the Nine-clawed Dragon Cat in his arms moved its head and smiled at Han Yan.

Han Yan's face sank. How could she be in the mood to smile with it? She said in a serious tone, ”What are you laughing at, it's all because of you.”

The Nine-clawed dragon cat seemed to understand Han Yan's words, it let out a meek laugh, then raised its furry little claws and pointed to the side.

Han Yan was surprised and probingly asked, ”Which way do you want me to go?”

The Nine-clawed dragon cat happily waved its claws and nodded its head. Its eyes were filled with excitement.

The cultivators behind him were getting closer and closer. Seeing that they were about to catch up, Han Yan gritted her teeth and said, ”Okay, I will believe you.” He took out the Heaven's Path Jade Seal from her storage pouch and a huge amount of spiritual energy quickly entered her body. With her spiritual energy restored, Han Yan accelerated and flew towards the west in a flash.

After flying for a while, the forest disappeared and a large valley appeared. The valley was filled with fog and the visibility was shockingly low. When he spread out his divine sense, he could only feel the distance of 100 feet. The people who were chasing after Han Yan were also startled when they saw him here. They cheered and quickly chased after him.

Han Yan saw the expressions on the faces of these people. She thought to herself, ”Could it be that there is something strange in this valley?” After hesitating for a moment, he flew in with a flash.

Li Ming's eyes were filled with hesitation. He understood this place better than anyone else. This place was called Fog Valley. Although there weren't many dangers in this valley, it was extremely strange. Without a clear route, it would be very difficult to find a way out. Not only that, the valley was much larger than he had imagined. It was as if it had shrunk to a smaller world. He had stumbled into it a few years ago, and it had taken him three years to get out. If it were just that, then he wouldn't have hesitated so much. After entering the valley, he saw many corpses of cultivators that showed that they would never be able to come out. They all died of old age inside the valley.

Thinking about this, Li Ming told everyone about the situation in the valley and then asked, ”If we enter right now, we can still catch up to that person. If we are too late, I'm afraid we won't be able to find him even if we enter.”

Everyone had different expressions, and many of them had expressions of hesitation. The woman in red curled her lips and said, ”What's there to be afraid of? We were able to come out last time, but this time we can. Let's go!” After saying that, she flew in with a flash.

Li Ming sighed and said, ”Those that want to go in, follow me. Those that don't want to go in, stay outside.”
