C417

Ancient trees towered in the sky in the forest. Huge, sturdy trees that were as thick as five people's arms could be seen everywhere, along with countless vines that were as thick as an arm.

Here the shrubs grew, and the foliage was rich, and the layers of foliage blocked out the sun in the sky, making the area seem very dark.

The ground was littered with fallen leaves. Some of them had already rotted away, and some of them had just fallen off. It was very soft to step on them.

Night approached.

After finding the path that led downwards, Mo Beichen and Qian Yufen spent an entire day before finally arriving at the bottom of the valley when it was dark.

Huge trees covered the sky in the valley, making it difficult for one to see sunlight even in broad daylight. Not to mention the fact that it was night time, even the moonlight and stars in the sky were hard to see.

Once he entered the forest, Mo Beichen clearly felt a sense of danger, as though there was an endless amount of killing intent lurking in the forest. No one knew what terrifying things were hidden in this ancient forest.

However, one thing was certain, there were many terrifying creatures here. Vicious, bloodthirsty, and extremely difficult to deal with.

"Be careful, there are dangers everywhere, we can't be careless!"

With such an extremely rich variety of living conditions, Mo Beichen warned.

Behind him, Qian Yufen followed closely. Her expression was tense and she looked extremely cautious.

"It's so cold here. I feel like I'm being watched by something."

From time to time, a gust of cold wind would blow past, causing Qian Yufen to feel a chill down his spine.

Seeing that the sky was already dark, and that it was the time when many poisonous insects and wild beasts were roaming about, the two didn't dare to tarry any longer and searched everywhere for a safe place to hide. Fortunately, their luck was not bad and they quickly found a cave that could accommodate them and went inside.

When Mo Beichen found a large rock to seal the cave entrance and used a tree branch to cover the breathable cracks, the two of them were finally able to heave a sigh of relief.

Even if they hadn't encountered anything upon reaching this perilous place, they still found it difficult to endure their nervousness at that moment. There was no other way. Who told this place to be so dangerous?

Although they had never been here before, they all believed that the dangers of this place would be even more terrifying than the rumors! If he wasn't careful, he might not even know how he died.

While Mo Beichen was searching for the huge rock that sealed up the cave entrance, Qian Yufen was also nearby. He found some dry branches and branches and was ready to start a fire.

After confirming that there were no problems with the cave entrance, he lit up the fire, and the two carefully examined the cave a few times.

Being in an unfamiliar and dangerous place, it was never wrong to be careful in everything.

The faint yellow flame throbbed uneasily, just like Qian Yufen's current mood. Seeing him frown, with a look of worry, Mo Beichen fiddled with the firewood, and casually asked: "What, are you afraid?"

After adding a few more branches, Qian Yufen looked exhausted. He leaned against the wall and stretched, then replied: "I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid! This place isn't a place for humans to stay in, not to mention that with our strength, we are only here to deliver food. Sigh, what was he capable of doing at that time! "I'm afraid there won't even be a bone left ?"

Mo Beichen did not reply. The two just sat there quietly, leaning against the walls of the cave, thinking about their own matters.

He also knew that Qian Yufen wasn't exaggerating; although he didn't know how dangerous this place was, it was clear that this place wasn't one that the current them could come to. However, at this point, he did not have any other choice. The only thing they needed to do was to try their best to survive!

After a long journey, both of them were tired and gradually fell asleep.

With no one to add wood, the light from the fire became dimmer and dimmer. Gradually, the fire was extinguished, and the flickering light made the cave seem even more sinister.

In a daze, Mo Beichen suddenly opened his eyes in alarm, and just in time to see Qian Yufen also sitting up, vigilantly looking around.

"You heard it too?" Qian Yufen asked softly.

"Yes." Nodding his head, Mo Beichen did not notice anything abnormal.

After observing for a long time, they did not discover any danger, so the two of them continued to sleep with suspicion.

In a blur, the voice not only appeared again, but seemed to have grown louder, as if it was right beside him.2

Almost at the same time, both of them jumped up, back to back, staring nervously at the surrounding walls. At this point, they were certain that the explosions were not illusions or that they were paranoid, but that they really did exist!

This cave was not very big. Under the illumination of the light, one could clearly see the entire situation within the cave. Moreover, they had already checked it many times. Other than the air gap at the entrance of the cave, there was absolutely nothing that they had missed. Under the situation where the cave entrance was sealed, what sort of thing could silently sneak in without them discovering it?

"That sound doesn't seem to be coming from outside?"

Qian Yufen asked suspiciously. Could it be that something really snuck in through the crack? Even so, he could see everything inside the cave clearly, yet he couldn't find anything out of the ordinary!

"I feel as if I'm right next to him." Shaking his head, Mo Beichen's heart was also filled with doubts.

Just then, he suddenly felt a sense of danger from his side, Mo Beichen had no time to think, he immediately turned and jumped away.

Just as he turned around, a brown ray of light shot out from the side of the cave. It penetrated the wall on the other side.

The two of them looked at each other with solemn faces.

The stone here was incomparably hard and was clearly not an ordinary stone. However, that unknown attack was able to easily pierce through it. Moreover, they did not notice it at all, causing the two people to be extremely apprehensive.

After confirming that there was a problem inside the cave, Mo Beichen widened his eyes and stared at the stone wall in order to prevent another attack like that one that happened without any warning. Qian Yufen then ignited two balls of flame in his palms, shining the light throughout the entire cave, illuminating all the traces on it.

After checking again and again, the two still did not find anything abnormal. This made them become even more vigilant. The most terrifying thing was that the enemy was hidden in the shadows.

The two of them just stood there with their eyes wide open, not moving for almost an hour. However, the one who had ambushed them did not appear again.

Just as Qian Yufen was anxious and wanted to curse, a strange hand suddenly reached out from the ground, grabbing his ankle and was about to pull it down.

Just as he was worrying that there was no place for him to get angry, this fellow came knocking on his door. Qian Yufen scolded endlessly, he raised his foot and stomped fiercely, a blazing flame shooting out from the bottom of his foot and burning that hand into pieces.

The hand that had been blown into smithereens scattered on the ground, turning into countless pieces that drilled into the ground like bugs and disappeared without a trace.

"Eh? "Worms?" Qian Yufen was surprised, he lowered his head and stared at the place where the 'bugs' had just disappeared.

Mo Beichen's gaze turned serious as he said in a low voice, "No, it's not a worm."

"How do you know it's not a bug? "Could it be that you ?" Before he finished speaking, Qian Yufen's face changed greatly, and he also knew why Mo Beichen was so sure that those were not bugs.
