Gui Jian Chou was a mountain range with continuous ups and downs, covered in a thick fog that would not dissipate throughout the year. Here, sunlight was considered a luxury.
Not to mention normal people, even the wildest bandits in the Da Xia Empire would not come to this kind of damned place. As the place was so deserted and not many people came here, the mountains in Gui Jian Chou contained various rare, precious medicines and minerals, as well as many rare beasts that could not be found in many other regions. Of the rare beasts that existed in this place, they were mostly plant-type beasts and insect-type beasts. It was said that there was even an extremely terrifying insect-type beast ‘Reaper Mantis’ that liked to prey on wyverns for food.
Of course, this was only a legend.
In this millennium, not a single soul had ever seen any sign of the ‘Reaper Mantis’ existence. This terrifying insect-type beast had probably been extinct for a thousand years already.
The Royal Swordswoman highly suspected that the royal scouting party had met a strong beast like the Reaper Mantis, and was wiped out by a surprise attack done by such an extremely strong beast…
“Be careful. Although there normally won’t be wild beasts above Level 3 roaming about, because they’re all plant-type and insect-type beasts, they usually appear in groups. Not only that, they bring about lots of negative effects such as weakness, dizziness, poison, hypnosis, parasites and others. It’s better to be safe than sorry. You, little liar, need to be more careful. Don’t let some Parasitic Bee or Parasitic Spider latch onto you and make you grow a body full of parasitic insects.” The royal swordswoman felt extremely baffled. This brat had always liked to chatter and crack jokes before this. Why did he suddenly become mute after teleporting to Gui Jian Chou?
“There are no signs of people ever walking past here at all. Are you absolutely sure that there really was a royal scouting party that got lost here?” Yue Yang was slightly doubtful in his heart.
Surrounding both sides of the Eagle’s Cry Valley in Gui Jian Chou were mysterious peaks that shot straight up to the sky.
They were perfectly straight as if they were sliced and chopped with blades and hatchets.
The Iron Clawed Cliff Eagles lived on top of the valley had wingspans of over five metres. At the bottom of the valley was a terrifying bug-infested valley that was surrounded by a thick, dense fog that never cleared. Various types of bugs could be found everywhere, and even the plants in the valley were all strange as well. They were all brightly-coloured and eye-catching. There were red, yellow, purple, black, some with multiple colours, and some were even luminous.
The only thing that this place did not have was normal green plants.
Yue Yang was carefully looking around along the road, but he did not find any traces of humans anywhere.
