And Xia Yuqing continued to run forward.

The fog around her had become even denser, and the path ahead was no longer visible, seemingly as mystical as the Immortal Realm from afar.

There used to be black trees before, but now, even with careful observation, nothing could be seen.

Therefore, Xia Yuqing slowed down her pace because a single careless move could lead to a collision with a tree or a step into a hole beneath her feet.

In summary, if she wasn’t careful, she would lose her life.

She also discovered that the fog could not be inhaled; it was toxic, and she instantly held her breath.

The expressions on the people of Nether had become very unpleasant.

They, too, were moving forward inch by inch.

“Damn it, what is this place, why is it so eerie, I can’t see anything!” the Ghost King cursed.

“Be careful, feel for that woman’s aura, we absolutely can’t lose her.

This is the Forest of Death.

It’s our first time here, and if any mishaps occur, we would die too!” the Nether King was a cautious man, he said.

Even the Ghost King couldn’t afford to be negligent at this time.

After all, the Forest of Death truly was an absolute deathtrap.

They had come to this place on a mission to find a stone buried under the Forest of Death and then bring the stone back.

That would mean the completion of their mission.

Although they didn’t understand the stone’s purpose, that was the mission.

“Ah!” Suddenly, one of the Nether people stepped into a void and fell into a pit, immediately getting engulfed by the water within, which possessed extremely strong corrosive power.

They watched as the person was instantly covered by the filthy water and turned into a pile of White Bone.

This sight filled the other Nether people with indescribable fear.

It seems there was more misfortune than fortune in the Forest of Death.

“Move, don’t just stand there!

Catch that woman and we immediately leave this place.

There’s something wrong with this fog around us, don’t breathe it in.” the Nether King ordered.

The group dared not utter a word and quickly moved forward.

However, at this moment, they all huddled together—unable to forget the ghastly death of their fellow brother, fearing they might be the next to perish.

Meanwhile, Tang Zhong, along with Monkey and the others, had also arrived here.

Seeing the layers of mist before them, his expression grew grim, because at this moment, the Jade Pendant around his neck began to tremble.

This puzzled him, as the Jade Pendant’s movement always preceded something happening, meaning the area ahead must be very dangerous.

“Everyone, be careful!” Tang exclaimed.

The people of Zhan Long regarded Tang as if he were a deity; nobody would doubt his words.

“Tang bro, got it!” Monkey replied, “I remember Yuqing sis is right ahead!”

“Understood, everyone, be careful!” Tang said again.

After that, Tang pulled out his Dragon Blade.

He absolutely trusted the sensing capability of the Jade Pendant.

This meant that the area they were about to enter was fraught with danger at every moment.

…

Xia Yuqing kept running forward ceaselessly.

But at this time, her clothes were disgustingly dirty and mudded.

She had nearly died just moments ago.

In the midst of the fog, she couldn’t see anything, and yet she encountered a man-high carnivorous ant ambushing her.

Had Xia Yuqing not noticed it early and resisted in time, she would have already become manure for the carnivorous ants by now.

Nonetheless, while she was fighting off the carnivorous ant, several parts of her clothes had torn, resembling slices made by a knife, exposing her snow-white skin.

“What in the world is this place?” Xia Yuqing looked around with wide eyes, horrified.

Just imagine – being surrounded by white fog so thick that you can only see yourself; it’s simply impossible to see anything else.

And then there are dangers lurking everywhere.

What kind of sensation would that be?

Suddenly, Xia Yuqing saw light emitting from somewhere ahead.

She also heard the babbling of running water.

Her eyes lit up immediately, and she quickly moved towards the light.

Had she actually made it out of the Forest of Death?

The Forest of Death, with only this one area.

Once out, the sea lies beyond.

Was she really about to leave?

With that thought, Xia Yuqing grew even more excited.

If she could make it out from here, then she would surely survive.

The light was getting closer and closer.

Xia Yuqing quickened her pace.

The mist ahead gradually grew thinner, and a beam of light pierced through.

Just as Xia Yuqing stepped out, a bright light shone into her pupils, and she quickly raised her hand to shield her eyes.

Having adapted to the darkness for so long in the Forest of Death, she had no way to adjust to the brightness at first sight.

Gradually, the sting in her eyes faded, and full of surprise, Xia Yuqing looked around.

The smiling expression on her face, in the next second, changed.

Because of the scene in front of her.

It wasn’t what she had hoped to see.

This was a cliff, and she was standing right at its edge, in front of her, a massive waterfall.

It was huge, cascading down from the heavens.

Xia Yuqing raised her head, trying to see where the water was coming from, but found it too difficult to see through the waterfall—it seemed as though it flowed down from the sky.

And looking to see where the waterfall’s water flowed to,

she discovered that below, it was still far too deep.

Unfathomably deep, she couldn’t see with the naked eye, only a large clump of mist was visible.

“What…

what kind of place is this?” Xia Yuqing found this very strange.

After all, this was the Forest of Death.

Where life perished most, this place with the highest death rate, even the strongest of exploration teams didn’t dare come here.

Yet, in the midst of this forest, could there be such a wonder?

Where did this waterfall come from?

And where did it flow?

Truth be told, Xia Yuqing had never seen such a large waterfall before.

And while she hesitated,

suddenly, a sound came from behind her.

“There’s light ahead, could it be we’ve made it out?”

“That woman also headed this way, could it be she has already left?”

It was the voices of the Nether group.

Xia Yuqing’s face turned ugly in an instant.

There was no way to escape.

Ahead was the waterfall, surrounded by cliffs, and to leave from here, the only way was to go back.

But the way back was where the Nether and his men were.

“Could it be that fate is against me?”

As these thoughts raced through her mind, the people from Nether emerged from the mist, squinting at first from the bright light, but quickly recovering and, upon seeing the waterfall, were similarly stunned by its magnitude, something they had never seen before.

But at this moment, they also saw Xia Yuqing.

“Haha, got you cornered, haven’t we!” laughed Ghost King, “Who would have thought that such a strange place would exist here, it would be great to cool off in this spot!”

And the Nether King stared straight at Xia Yuqing, slowly stepping forward, “Long Lin, hand over the stone in your backpack to me, or else I will kill you right here!”

Immediately, the Nether King took out a gun, named Wrath of the Nether King!
