Chapter 287: Hidden Danger
The mountain range where the Evil Spirit Valley was located was very wide.
This was because it was on the east side of the Catacombs world. This mountain range went north and south. It was basically the end of the east, isolating this Catacombs world. Very few people could pass through this mountain range to the back.
According to their estimation, this mountain range stretches for tens of thousands of miles from north to south. The most dangerous area was the circular area that was thousands of miles long in front of him. This was the especially dangerous place they had summarized. It was easiest to see the Evil Spirit Valley.
The reason why the Evil Spirit Valley was so famous was because the person who escaped said that there were dead undead everywhere in the valley. These undead kept wailing and hissing, tearing off every inch of flesh and blood of those who entered.
Their special descriptions spread throughout this valley. But because of this terrifying name, it stopped many people from coming here.
This area with a radius of a thousand kilometers was even more lush than the plants beside it. After all, without any external disturbances, the things here grew freely. The environment was much better than the outside.
More importantly, it was said that wherever the valley passed, there would be abundant soil left behind. It seemed that as long as one touched the soil of the valley, they would become more fertile than other places.
It was unknown if this saying was true or false, but it had been circulating for a very long time.
However, from Li Yuanqing’s observation, the soil here was indeed much more fertile than outside. Moreover, it was impossible for such fertile soil to be born in a normal environment. It must be related to the legend.
Just as he was walking forward, a black lightning suddenly whizzed past him.
Li Yuanqing chased after it without thinking and followed the black lightning through the forest. Unknowingly, he had already chased for more than a hundred miles and had vaguely reached the depths of the mountain range.
At this moment, the little fellow in front suddenly stood still. Only then could he see that it was a little rabbit.
This rabbit was covered in black fur. Under the faint light, the black fur emitted a bright light. It looked very lovable. He nestled on the pile of dead wood and did not move. He looked back at Li Yuanqing as if he was curious why this human had chased him so far.
Li Yuanqing did not seem to move, but his feet were already moving gently. He slowly approached the little rabbit without disturbing it at all. The little rabbit did not even notice. It kept lowering its head and licking its little claws, not realizing that danger was gradually descending.
There was a very unique energy on the little rabbit. Li Yuanqing felt that this unique energy should be what he was looking for and it should be related to that mysterious valley.
Soon, he approached the little rabbit. The little rabbit had just discovered him, but it was too late to escape.
Li Yuanqing grabbed the little rabbit. The little rabbit struggled crazily in Li Yuanqing’s hand, wanting to escape. However, Li Yuanqing’s big hand was like a pincer, forcefully pulling it back, making it impossible for it to escape.
At this moment, an extremely dangerous force approached very quickly. Li Yuanqing threw a short knife behind him without looking back. The short knife seemed to have pierced through something, but it was slashed through again. In the end, nothing was left. After a weak breath, it fell into the thick black fog.
This strange black fog was very bizarre. It was originally spreading slowly behind, but after sucking the small knife in, it suddenly sped up and jumped in front of Li Yuanqing, enveloping his entire body.
Li Yuanqing still wanted to resist, but the black fog quickly sucked him in, not giving him any chance to resist. He had just summoned his shield beside him when his vision darkened in the next second. He could not see anything except for this dark fog.
Black fog, endless black fog.
The power that Li Yuanqing had released seemed to have been absorbed by the black fog. There was no echo at all. After a long time, there seemed to be a little light in front of him. Could it be a passageway ahead?
Li Yuanqing did not know where that place was, but in the endless black fog, he subconsciously followed the light towards the place that looked like an exit.
In the beginning, this passageway was very narrow. He could almost only see a faint light in front of him. However, the further he went, the clearer the passageway became. The light gradually became dazzling. After a few miles, everything became bright. He passed through a door and arrived at a brand new world.
The world was very bright, as if countless lights were shining in every corner, dazzling everyone.
Moreover, there were birds and flowers here. The birds were chirping and dancing. The animals were jumping around happily. It was like the world he had lived in before. It was so harmonious and quiet.
There, these animals did not have so many tricks to frame humans. There, these flowers and plants followed the natural rules of the world and grew slowly and persistently. They would not set traps one by one to lure people in and finally paralyze them and kill them.
Li Yuanqing felt like he had returned to the past, to the harmonious world he used to live in. Why did he appear here? Everything here was too beautiful. It was so beautiful that it seemed unreal.
At this moment, Li Yuanqing looked down at his hands. He was still holding the rabbit in his hands, but the rabbit had already turned pure white. This pure white color made the little rabbit look much cuter.
The little rabbit lay on his hand and did not speak. Of course, he could not speak. He just stared at him with those red eyes.
Such a scene was so easy to fall in. Li Yuanqing gradually seemed to have forgotten that he had such a little rabbit in his hands. He turned to look at his feet. There were many little fellows beside his feet.
There were many identical little white rabbits, some little squirrels, and even those flowers that had their heads tilted and bloomed with beautiful petals, falling for Li Yuanqing.
However, there was a killing intent hidden behind all this beauty. However, when Li Yuanqing was at his most relaxed, the originally very cute little rabbit suddenly opened its mouth, revealing its scarlet fangs.
The two front teeth were not flat. Instead, they had turned into two very sharp snake-like fangs. He opened his mouth and was about to bite Li Yuanqing’s arm. Just as Li Yuanqing was about to throw it away, he realized that the little rabbit’s two short and strong arms were hugging his hand very forcefully.
The rabbits, squirrels, and butterflies under his feet all revealed their original faces. They opened their bloody mouths and pounced on Li Yuanqing. Even these flowers and plants had two rows of sharp teeth. These teeth were terrifying.
From the outside, Li Yuanqing’s body was immediately surrounded by countless things. Countless insects jumped over from all directions, wanting to eat his flesh.
It had been a long time since they had received such nourishment. Those people were all afraid after the massacre and did not dare to come over, causing their valley to no longer be nourished by external spiritual energy.
Now, a big guy had come. This person had so much spiritual energy on him. As long as they killed him, they would be able to obtain endless power. This power was so powerful.
At this moment, Li Yuanqing, who was already tightly surrounded, suddenly erupted with golden light that filled the sky, sending all the messy things on his body flying.
These rabbits fell to the ground without a sound, black blood flowing out of their mouths.
When all these small animals died, the light in the entire canyon dissipated and slowly fell into darkness. The color was gradually drowned by the black fog.
All the good things came to an end after this first wave of counterattack.
This was the place he was looking for.
Li Yuanqing casually threw the rabbit whose neck had been broken onto the ground. The moment the rabbit landed on the ground, the grass that was not completely dead immediately swarmed up and wrapped around the rabbit’s corpse.
Just like that, they split the rabbit’s corpse and ate it.
Li Yuanqing was not in the mood to care about the battle between these little fellows. He walked forward step by step and observed the situation beside him.
There were many plants growing around him, but many of these were carnivorous plants. These plants could obtain spiritual energy from the outside world, and they could not completely digest this spiritual energy, so they scattered from their roots.
And they could often nurture some very valuable rare materials.
Ordinary people would definitely be very afraid when they saw these things and only want to escape quickly. However, they had never observed that some extremely precious materials would often appear beside these very ferocious little fellows.
Not only was Li Yuanqing not frightened by these demons, but he also walked in very firmly. As he walked, he even collected the precious materials along the way.
The layout of the valley was very complicated. There were several separated forests. These forests had different trees, like different factions of tree demons gathered together.
On the other side, the area he was in was a grassland. The small land of grass growing on this grassland was very offensive. However, their teeth could not break Li Yuanqing’s defense.
There was also a very dark pond. The pond was like a pool of stagnant water. The dark pond was actually emitting a long black light. This black energy kept spreading out and nourishing the plants growing at the edge of the pond.
This was the place he was looking for.
Usually, the Netherworld Flower was born with the Netherworld Water. Only the pure devilish aura emitted by this water could nourish a pure devil flower like the Netherworld Flower.
It was very difficult to find such a pure devil artifact in the Demon Realm. But there was actually such a pool of pure devilish energy here, and there was actually a Netherworld Flower beside it.
Li Yuanqing was overjoyed. He did not expect this place to be true. This trip was not in vain since there was something he was looking for. It had taken him a long time to come here. It would be a huge loss if he could not find it.
Fortunately, he had finally gained something. At the very least, if he could collect some of the Netherworld Water, it would be quite beneficial.
Li Yuanqing rushed towards the Netherworld Pond without any hesitation. He could vaguely see a few very unique existences among the dense flowers and plants.
Soon, Li Yuanqing arrived at the side of the pond. However, when he was a few meters away from the pond, the grass beside him suddenly stirred. An armored guard stood up from the grass.
When the guard raised his head again, Li Yuanqing finally saw the evil spirit in the valley for the first time. Under the helmet was a complete skull. Moreover, one could see that an entire skeleton was wrapped in the tattered armor.
These were the evil spirits they were talking about. The evil spirits they saw when they came in were these guys.
This person held a rusty black saber in his hand. The black saber had several holes, but it emitted a very pure devilish aura. As long as this vicious power landed on a person, it would corrode the spiritual energy in their body. It was no wonder that very few people could escape alive.
The moment the evil spirit woke up,he locked onto his target. His red eyes stared fixedly at Li Yuanqing. Then, without hesitation, he raised his saber and charged at Li Yuanqing. He was very fast. Although he looked like a rotten skeleton on the surface, unexpectedly, his speed was ten times faster than the little rabbit just now.
In the blink of an eye, the skeleton had already arrived in front of Li Yuanqing.
Moreover, when the skeleton had already begun to attack, the grass in the other places slowly began to stir. Several small bags emerged and slowly transformed into armor.
Red enchanting light gradually flickered in these armors.
