Chapter 12: Huxiao Valley

Fists and shadows crisscrossed.

Many times they came close to hitting Wang Xiaofei.

Sometimes, when Wang Xiaofei couldn’t dodge, he would make a move to block.

However, each time he blocked, it was a blow to Wang Xiaofei.

“Peng.”

Flashes of lightning and thunder, scorching flames.

The shadows of fists shattered, and chaotic elemental energy surged unchecked.

Along the way, countless towering trees and boulders were affected, shattering with a thunderous roar.

Running wildly, Wang Xiaofei had already ventured deeper into Mount Daqing. At the same time, blood had started to trickle from the corners of his mouth, and his chest was roiling with blood and energy.

After all, the Nine-Star Warrior was much stronger than him and completely beyond his ability to resist.

Gradually, the distance between the two grew shorter.

In Liu Dan’s eyes, however, an increasingly excited gleam appeared.

Wang Xiaofei’s escape route led straight to a dangerous area within Mount Daqing.

Even a Nine-Star Warrior entering that area would be sure to die. Liu Dan was familiar with this place; he often ventured into Mount Daqing, and his family had recorded various dangerous locations within it. He was well aware of its dangers.

But this despicable little villager definitely had no clue.

Right, if he could corner him into “Huxiao Valley,” he wouldn’t need to exert much effort to finish him off.

Liu Dan thought, simultaneously altering his strategy of attacking Wang Xiaofei. Now, he no longer aimed to kill Wang Xiaofei. He wanted to force him into that treacherous area.

“Hong hong hong.”

Whenever Wang Xiaofei seemed about to veer off course,

Liu Dan’s attacks would timely push him back.

“Hmm?”

Wang Xiaofei was puzzled. He could sense the change in Liu Dan’s attacks, but at the moment, he couldn’t quite understand why. Regardless, he had to keep running!

Wang Xiaofei utilized his footwork to its fastest extent, racing forward with all his might.

Soon, the two of them had traversed more than ten li (5 kilometers) through the dense forest.

Ahead was a place that appeared very desolate—a rocky forest.

In this rocky forest, towering trees were almost non-existent, replaced by patches of weeds. Meanwhile, peculiar rocks towered everywhere, with colossal stalagmites jutting out as high as ten meters in front.

“This seems like a good place; I hope I can use the terrain here to shake off that pursuer behind me.” At this point in his escape, Wang Xiaofei was honestly feeling quite exhausted. The terrain ahead seemed favorable for eluding his pursuer.

Hence, Wang Xiaofei pinned his hopes on the rocky forest ahead.

“Peng.”

He exerted force under his feet, soaring forward.

“Gaga, this **** doesn’t even know about the existence of Huxiao Valley; he’s actively walking into a trap.” Liu Dan rejoiced inwardly, launching attacks at Wang Xiaofei from behind, neither too fast nor too slow, to guard against any sudden changes in Wang Xiaofei’s direction.

However, his worries were unnecessary.

Wang Xiaofei flashed his body a few times in quick succession and finally dashed into “Huxiao Valley.”

“Hahaha!”

Seeing Wang Xiaofei actually enter ‘Huxiao Valley,’ Liu Dan couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“You fool, I must congratulate you. You’ve entered one of the most dangerous areas on the outskirts of Mount Daqing, Huxiao Valley. Let me tell you, no warrior below the Martial Spirit Realm has ever made it out from inside here. Enjoy yourself. Hahaha.” Liu Dan laughed heartily, gazing up at the sky.

Having heard descriptions from the elders in his family,

This Huxiao Valley was exceedingly perilous. Inside, there were many Level Nine Demonic Beasts. Even a One-Star Martial Spirit had to be extremely cautious.

Moreover, within ‘Huxiao Valley,’ aside from the Demonic Beasts, there were hardly any other cultivation resources. Martial Spirit Realm and higher cultivators paid little attention to the meager treasures found on Demonic Beasts. As a result, those above the Martial Spirit Realm hardly ventured into ‘Huxiao Valley.’ Therefore, once someone entered, there was practically no hope of rescue. Even if a Nine-Star Warrior accidentally entered, death was almost certain. This was much better than personally killing that little villager.

Liu Dan also had his own purpose for entering Mount Daqing.

Unlike those youngsters, he had exceptional talent and held high standards for himself. This time, he hoped to advance another step. This would require spending a significant amount of time—perhaps even a year—to cultivate in Mount Daqing.

Now, there was no need to expend energy pursuing the troublesome Wang Xiaofei. Let Huxiao Valley deal with him. Liu Dan was quite satisfied with this plan.

Laughing heartily to the sky, Liu Dan proudly left the scene.

“Not good.”

The moment he dashed into ‘Huxiao Valley,’ Wang Xiaofei inwardly exclaimed.

Just as he had entered a moment ago, he distinctly felt as though he had broken through a membrane.

This membrane was colorless, odorless, and transparent. Even though Wang Xiaofei now stood right before the membrane, he couldn’t perceive its presence. Simultaneously, an almost imperceptible chill began invading Wang Xiaofei’s body.

Huxiao Valley?

The most dangerous place on the outskirts of Mount Daqing?

Hearing Liu Dan’s words and seeing him casually walk away,

Wang Xiaofei’s heart sank slightly.

Could he have really entered some strange place?

“Hong.”

A fist pounded forward.

Fists and shadows flashed, lightning gleamed upon them, and the surrounding wind whistled, emitting a rumbling sound.

In an instant, the heavens and earth shifted and changed as if the ground was shaking.

With this punch, Wang Xiaofei had exerted all his strength.

“Peng.”

A muffled sound.

The shadow of his fist struck the emptiness ahead. Though nothing was visible, Wang Xiaofei could sense his fist impacting against something.

A faint silvery glimmer seemed to pass by up front.

Then, he felt an irresistible surge of tremendous power.

Unable to control it, he staggered back over a dozen steps.

Then, his back slammed forcefully into a massive boulder.

Surprisingly, it was an immensely grand formation.

Wang Xiaofei was greatly alarmed.

With his current strength, he was unable to break free.

After testing it out, Wang Xiaofei quickly realized his situation.

He seemed to be trapped within a formation. This formation was incredibly vast; entering was easy, but escaping was not. There were only two ways out: either become proficient in formations, find a way to break the formation and leave, or break the formation using brute force.

However, with his current strength as an Eight-Star Warrior,

Breaking the formation with brute force was simply impossible.

And he knew nothing about formations.

What to do?

Wang Xiaofei’s brows furrowed tightly.

Apart from his own safety, he worried about his parents in Qingshan Town. If Wang Xiong were to suddenly attack, his parents’ situation would become extremely perilous.

For now, he could only hope that Wang Xiong hadn’t received news from Wang Lang and Wang Chai, and thus wouldn’t make any reckless moves.

Wang Xiaofei gradually calmed his anxious heart.

He knew that no matter how urgently he felt, it would be in vain. If he couldn’t escape from Huxiao Valley, he couldn’t help his parents.

Therefore, Wang Xiaofei cast aside all other thoughts and focused his entire mind on dealing with the current predicament.

For now, it seemed he couldn’t escape from this formation in a short time. He didn’t understand formations, and a frontal assault wouldn’t work either. Perhaps he could explore this valley; there might be an opportunity hidden within.

Carefully, he walked behind the first massive boulder.

Wang Xiaofei stopped. He could sense that the extremely dangerous aura had grown even stronger. The surroundings were eerily quiet, except for strange sounds coming from the distance—possibly demonic beasts.

Occasionally, one or two ‘tiger roars’ would reverberate, sending chills down one’s spine. It made one feel a shiver deep within, as though a powerful tiger-like demonic beast might burst out at any moment.

Wang Xiaofei cautiously moved forward.

Suddenly, he warily glanced to his left.

Then, his body flashed, and he concealed himself behind a massive odd-shaped rock. Behind this rock was a small cave, just big enough for one person. After entering the cave, Wang Xiaofei used some pieces of rubble to block the entrance, leaving only a small gap for him to observe his surroundings at any time.

After a moment, a cacophony of disorderly sounds erupted, growing louder and louder, gradually causing the ground to tremble.
