“Danger lurks within the Desolate Human Valley. Even some plants are man-eating monsters. You aren’t able to perceive things yet, and you can only use your eyes. In the dark Desolate Human Valley, it will be extremely dangerous. Hold my hand, I’ll be able to avoid any danger. If you were to separate from me, and take a wrong step, you might fall into a trap and enter the stomachs of the beasts, and be eaten in an instant!”
Lin Xintong’s words were not unfounded. The Desolate Human Valley was fraught with danger. The monsters within were not only proficient at killing humans, they were masters of disguise and sneak attacks!
Yi Yun puckered his dry lips and held Lin Xintong’s hand.
The two slowly walked hand in hand into the rugged Desolate Human Valley.
To venture into the Desolate Human Valley with Lin Xintong made Yi Yun fill with anticipation.
At this moment, the moon was dim and the winds strong. There was little light that entered the Desolate Human Valley. Yi Yun followed Lin Xintong slowly. Yi Yun could not see Lin Xintong at all, he could only feel his hand holding Lin Xintong’s. In the silent darkness, he could faintly smell the fragrance of Lin Xintong’s body.
The Desolate Human Valley was too quiet, so they could hear each other’s heartbeats. This intriguing feeling made it seem like they were the only two people left in this world.
Although it was safe, but walking hand in hand with Lin Xintong made the atmosphere ambiguous.
Lin Xintong walked in front and being able to use her senses to perceive the area, it did not affect Lin Xintong’s vision despite the absence of light.
It seemed like she could still see Yi Yun if she turned her head back.
In fact, Lin Xintong had to admit that she was very willing to make contact with Yi Yun. Holding Yi Yun’s hands made her especially comfortable.
Lin Xintong was born with Yin Meridians, so her body was cold like water. As for Yi Yun’s physique, it was hot. In Yi Yun’s meridians, it seemed like there was a constant flow of hot energy. This flowed through their skin and nourished Lin Xintong’s body. It made her extremely comfortable.
There were even times when Lin Xintong’s closed off meridians would have some tiny changes because of Yi Yun.
This tiny change infatuated Lin Xintong. As such, she had a sense of nostalgia of her holding hands with Yi Yun.
As the two slowly went deeper, the surrounding atmosphere became more bizarre. Although Yi Yun couldn’t see, he could feel a sense of death encroaching.
The fanciful and fickle feelings he originally had, had been swept away.
This Desolate Human Valley… was filled with Death!
In here, he had to be on high alert as death was at every turn. If one did not stay vigilant, one could die in an instant.
Although Lin Xintong was protecting him, he wanted to make this fight a life and death experience. Such opportunities were rare!
Yi Yun felt that they were descending. It was as if they were entering an underground cave.
Slowly, Yi Yun saw some light. This light was from fluorescent minerals. These shiny fluorescent minerals littered the walls of the canyon. As such, Yi Yun slowly regained his vision.
He could see that there were plants of immense sizes within the rugged canyon.
These plants were like boulders, but there were exceptions. Some plants had bright and extravagant flowers. The flowers dripped blood because the edges of the flowers were lined with zig-zag teeth. It was like a huge mouth.
There was also a mushroom that looked to be about two to three feet tall. It was like a giant umbrella. It shimmered and released a particular fragrance. Under the mushroom cap, one could see the bones of animals.
“It’s the Man-eating plants and the Killing mushrooms. The Man-eating plants eat people, while the Killing mushroom’s fragrance is poisonous. The moment its spores enter your body, it will grow into a new mushroom. Those bones you see are a result of that.”
As Lin Xintong said, her body emitted a purple electric current. It hummed and whenever the mushroom spores came near to Lin Xintong or Yi Yun, they would all be burned to ashes by the electric current.
Yi Yun was secretly scared. This was the wild world of the vast wilderness. In this region, death was possible without even knowing the cause of it.
Lin Xintong said, “There are many inaccessible places in the vast wilderness that does not have a single soul. It is fraught with unexpected dangers you can’t even imagine. But because there’s not even a soul, and because of the strange environment, it will create treasures. The value of some treasures can be hard to measure. When it enters other regions of the vast wilderness, it can cause a blood storm, and might even destroy an ancient country…”
Lin Xintong spoke while Yi Yun listened in silence. This was his first time for him heading into that world. To see what the world was about, Lin Xintong could be considered Yi Yun’s first guide.
“Let’s take the Cloud Wilderness as an example.
