16: Chapter 16 Entering the Misty Forest

After the small interlude of the micro-magneto-storm, the cloud piercing boat flew very smoothly for another twenty days.

Finally, it arrived at Changhong Station, not far from the Misty Forest, without any mishaps.

After getting off the cloud piercing boat, Yun Chenfei followed the crowd toward the entrance of the station.

Others were in groups, either in threes or fives, but he was dressed in a wide black robe and was all alone, making him very conspicuous here.

Just as he stepped out of the station entrance, someone blocked Yun Chenfei's path.

"Fellow Daoist, are you heading to the Misty Forest to explore for treasures and Opportunity? How about joining our Gale Squad?"

"Our team members all have cultivation at or above the Returning Origin Realm, and we split the treasures and Opportunity we obtain equally."

A Blue-robed Youth, about twenty years old, spoke up.

"No interest!"

Yun Chenfei said indifferently, and then prepared to leave.

"Fellow Daoist, please wait!"

"How about this, you can keep fifty percent of the treasures obtained, and we will split the rest among ourselves."

Seeing that Yun Chenfei was about to leave, the Blue-robed Youth hesitated for a moment before speaking again.

"Senior Brother, the treasure we are looking for this time is..."

The Blue-robed Youth waved his hand to interrupt the words of the woman in green behind him.

"Oh?"

"I get fifty percent?"

Yun Chenfei asked playfully.

"Fellow Daoist, do not misunderstand. I observe that your Qi and blood are full, and your True Origin is thick; I presume you are at least a Cultivator of the Condensing Origin Realm."

"To tell you the truth, my Junior Sister is suffering from fire poison and urgently needs a Late Stage third-tier ice-attribute Yao Beast core as a medicinal ingredient."

"The target we are dealing with this time is a Late Stage third-tier Black-scaled Profound Ice Python, and we only want its Yao Beast core."

"As for the Dragon Origin Fruit guarded by the Black-scaled Profound Ice Python, it will all belong to you, Fellow Daoist!"

The Blue-robed Youth said sincerely.

Yun Chenfei saw that among the three of them, the one with the highest cultivation was the Blue-robed Youth before him, who was at the seventh grade of the Returning Origin Realm.

The other two women were at the fourth grade and third grade of the Returning Origin Realm, respectively.

They indeed did not possess the strength to contend with a Late Stage third-tier Yao Beast, so what the Blue-robed Youth said should be true.

But for Yun Chenfei, the most important thing right now was to go to Duanfeng Cliff to find the Saint-tier offensive Divine Ability.

Out of curiosity, he casually used the System to scan the Blue-robed Youth before him.

Name: Lu Chuan

Identity: Personal Disciple of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion

Physique: Wind Spirit Physique

Cultivation: Seventh grade of the Returning Origin Realm

Innate Divine Ability: Wind Travels Ten Thousand Miles

Secret Divine Ability: None

destiny value: 2000 (Green)

Current Status: Small Opportunity, smooth sailing, lucky star shining, above-average talent, turning point of destiny.

Recent Situation: One month later, he will team up with the Holy Son of Haotian Mansion, Lin Feiyu, to explore the Misty Forest. They will encounter a Fourth-Tier Demonic Beast, the Golden-Eyed Emerald Tiger Beast. Relying on his Innate Divine Ability, Wind Travels Ten Thousand Miles, he will take his Junior Sister and escape before Lin Feiyu, which will cause the other party to hold a grudge against him.

Character Profile: Supporting character in "emperor rushes to the nine heavens", Personal Disciple of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, Lu Chuan. Originally, his life was smooth sailing, but later he inadvertently offended the Holy Son of Haotian Mansion, Lin Feiyu, in the Misty Forest, and was ruthlessly killed by Lin Feiyu in a great battle two years later.

Afterward, he checked the other two women and found that their fates were similar to Lu Chuan's, all dying under Lin Feiyu's schemes.

"I am truly sorry, I have important matters to attend to, farewell."

"Also, when looking for teammates, it's best to keep your eyes open. Sometimes, the human heart is even more terrifying than a Yao Beast!"

Leaving behind this piece of advice, Yun Chenfei strode away.

Watching Yun Chenfei's retreating figure, Lu Chuan's face was full of disappointment.

He and his two Junior Sisters had been waiting here for three days, and it was hard enough to encounter a lone wolf of the Condensing Origin Realm, only to be rejected by him.

Soon, the look of disappointment on his face disappeared.

He hurriedly walked toward another person who was also dressed in a wide black robe.

...

Half an hour later, Yun Chenfei arrived at the edge of the Misty Forest.

Behind him, the sky was clear for ten thousand miles, and the sun was shining brightly.

In front of him, dense fog filled the air, cold and damp.

"The Major Thousand Worlds are full of wonders!"

Looking at the strange scene of two extreme weather conditions before him, Yun Chenfei could not help but exclaim in his heart.

Then, without looking back, he stepped into the fog-filled forest in front of him.

As soon as he stepped into the Misty Forest, the surroundings around Yun Chenfei instantly became dim.

The towering ancient trees, which had grown for who knows how many years, had branches and leaves that blotted out the sky and sun, coupled with the dense fog all around.

This made the forest as dim and gloomy as dusk, suddenly giving people a feeling of coldness and darkness.

In the edge area of the Misty Forest, Yun Chenfei strode forward, stepping on withered branches and fallen leaves that had been rotting for who knows how many years.

The dead leaves under his feet, mixed with the corpses of unknown animals, emitted a nauseating stench of decay.

This made him cover his nose and mouth tightly, and his pace could not help but quicken significantly.

The periphery of the Misty Forest, the area of first-tier and second-tier Yao Beasts, had long since been searched countless times by people.

Not to mention that there were no Spiritual Plant or spirit fruits left; even if there were, they would not be very precious.

Because precious Heaven And Earth Treasure all grew in the depths of the Misty Forest.

Two hours later, Yun Chenfei arrived at the area occupied by third-tier Yao Beasts, and his speed of advance slowed down.

Facing the third-tier Yao Beasts hidden in the thick fog, even with his powerful Primordial Saint Body, Yun Chenfei did not dare to be the slightest bit careless.

The fog before him was very thick; at this moment, visibility was already less than five meters.

The clothes on Yun Chenfei's body had been soaked by the dense fog, clinging tightly to his body, wet and very uncomfortable.

This forced him to circulate the True Origin force in his body to dry his clothes.

All around him were towering trees with a diameter of more than five or six meters, and the thickest ones even reached a diameter of more than ten meters.

They were all about a hundred meters tall, and the further he went into the depths of the Misty Forest, the taller and larger the trees became.

Walking in this forest with a human height, one appeared extremely small.

Just now, in the area occupied by first-tier and second-tier Yao Beasts, he could occasionally encounter some Cultivators.

Since entering the area occupied by third-tier Yao Beasts, Yun Chenfei had not encountered a single person.

What he saw was withered bones all over the ground, some belonging to humans, some to animals, and some giant withered bones that obviously belonged to some kind of Yao Beast.

Taking out the map given by Hua Qianmo, Yun Chenfei first confirmed his own position, then looked toward the position of Duanfeng Cliff.

The straight-line distance is not very far; at my current speed, I can arrive in about two days, but I have to pass through the territory of at least five Fourth-Tier Demonic Beasts in between...

"Sigh~!"

"Snatching the Opportunity of a destined protagonist is simply not something a human can do!"

With a long sigh, Yun Chenfei muttered to himself.

Complaining was just complaining, but the pace of his advance remained as firm as ever!

Following the narrow path in the forest that was trampled out by either Yao Beasts or humans.

He headed all the way west.

"Roar~!"

Suddenly, a huge roar came from the forest in the distance.

The roar shook the surrounding birds into flight, and some small beasts fled in panic and chaos.
