The canyon was dark and quiet. There was not even a gust of wind.
Occasionally, a ray of starlight would shine into the canyon through the gaps in the fog.
Ji Tianxing sat on a black rock, holding the black ancient book and reading it carefully.
Before this, he had already flipped through the contents of the ancient book many times.
He stared at the last few pages of the book. There was still a corner of the torn page, and he could vaguely see a line of small words.
"Full Moon Lake! The aura of a divine item has appeared there! "
It was just a few words, but they contained important information.
When he saw this line of words, he decided to investigate and came to the Hidden Fog Mountain Range alone.
According to this line of words in the ancient book, he could conclude that the so-called divine item's aura should be referring to the Heavenly Star Bead.
The aura of the Heavenly Star Bead had appeared in the Full Moon Lake before!
After he obtained the map of the Hidden Fog Mountain Range, he had carefully checked the routes and locations marked on the map.
In the depths of the Hidden Fog Mountain Range, there was indeed a place called the Full Moon Lake.
From the canyon where he was now to the Full Moon Lake, he had to pass through more than half of the Hidden Fog Mountain Range and at least seven to eight dangerous regions.
After a long time, Ji Tianxing closed the book. His eyes were filled with anticipation as he muttered softly, "I hope I can successfully find the whereabouts of the Heavenly Star Bead. My risk was not in vain."
He solemnly put away the black ancient book, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate.
The silent and long night finally passed.
After dawn, Ji Tianxing ended his cultivation. After packing up, he walked into the canyon.
The canyon in the morning was shrouded in a thick fog, and the valley was filled with the fragrance of flowers and dew.
Ji Tianxing stepped through the knee-high grass, splashing countless drops of dew as he walked firmly into the depths of the canyon.
The ground in the canyon was soft and damp, and it was covered with colorful flowers and shrubs. There were also many fruits of various sizes.
Ji Tianxing had learned the Thousand Medicine Collection before, so he could identify thousands of common medicinal herbs.
With just a glance, he could recognize that most of the flowers and shrubs were medicinal herbs.
Although most of the medicinal herbs were relatively common, they were not too rare.
If he gathered all the medicinal herbs in the canyon, he could exchange them for at least two or three Spirit Stones.
However, he was full of thoughts about finding the Heavenly Star Bead. How could he have the time and leisure to gather medicinal herbs?
About 15 minutes later, Ji Tianxing arrived at the end of the canyon.
What appeared in front of him was a deep and narrow gravel path.
The path was a gap between two mountain peaks. It was only about three meters wide, and there were straight and steep rock walls on both sides.
If one stood on the path and looked up, they would only be able to see a sliver of the sky. Therefore, this path was called the Sliver of Sky.
Gravel would often fall from the walls on both sides, piling up in the middle of the path, forming undulating piles of rocks.
Ji Tianxing stood outside the entrance of the One-Line Sky and stared at the small path for a moment before stepping in.
. of the Heavenly Star Bead of the Heavenly Star Bead of the canyon of the canyon.
... of the Heavenly Star of the canyon of the Heavens of the Li...
. He saw the colorful flowers as big as a washbasin. He thought they were ordinary flowers and did not pay much attention to them.
However, when he walked past the huge flowers, they seemed to come alive. They stretched their necks and stuck to him.
The huge flowers that were half open suddenly opened and turned into a huge mouth as big as a washbasin. They stuck to his body.
The huge mouth was filled with sharp spikes that looked like rows of teeth. They immediately pierced through his robes, through the extremely tattered Golden Sun Soft Armor, and into his flesh.
Ji Tianxing's body shook. He felt pain and numbness all over his body. His face turned pale.
"Damn it! It's the Man-Eating Flower! "
He reacted instantly. The huge plants with thick roots and gorgeous flowers were the legendary Man-Eating Flower.
It was a monster that was between an animal and a plant. It was usually motionless and disguised as an ordinary flower. It would emit Spiritual Qi waves and fragrance to attract prey.
Once the prey got close to it, the Man-Eating Flower would open its bloody mouth and tightly wrap around the prey.
It would use its sharp thorns to penetrate the prey's defense and use its sticky venom to numb and corrode the prey.
Not to mention a human, even a monster with a strong body would find it hard to escape if it was entangled by the Man-Eating Flower.
In the end, it would be swallowed and not even its bones would be left. It would become the Man-Eating Flower's nourishment.
Ji Tianxing realized that something was wrong and struggled with all his might.
However, his legs and waist were wrapped by the Man-Eating Flower. Even if he used all his strength, he could not break free.
Luckily, he could still move his hands. He immediately took out the Black Dragon Sword from his spatial ring and slashed at the Man-Eating Flower.
"Swish swish swish!"
The dark green stems of the Man-Eating Flower were as thick as his arm. They were instantly cut off by the sharp Black Dragon Sword. Dark green venom spilled out and sprinkled on the grass.
"Zi zi zi …"
White smoke immediately rose from the ground. A large patch of wild grass was corroded into black ash.
If this venom were to be poured on a human body, what would happen?
Ji Tianxing watched in horror. He quickly jumped back to avoid being stained by the venom.
Although the stems of the Man-Eating Flower were cut off, its vitality was abnormally strong.
The basin-sized flower was still wrapped around Ji Tianxing's legs and waist. The thorns were still drilling into his flesh and injecting the venom.
He quickly tore off a few Man-Eating Flowers and used the Black Dragon Sword to cut them into pieces. He then threw them into the bushes at the side.
He was finally out of danger. He could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
Looking down at his legs and waist, he realized that there were large holes in his clothes where the Man-Eating Flower had bitten.
The wounds were filled with small pinholes. A large patch of his skin had turned dark purple. It was obvious that he had been poisoned.
Luckily, he had already bought the antidote powder in Flame Spirit City. He quickly applied it to his wounds. Soon, it was effective. The numbness and pain all over his body disappeared.
"I was too careless this time! I was attacked by the Man-Eating Flower before I even entered the Hidden Fog Mountain Range. What a bad start!
"Luckily, I reacted in time. If the poison had been worse, I would have been paralyzed and turned into fertilizer for the Man-Eating Flower!"
After treating his wounds, Ji Tianxing muttered to himself, full of self-blame.
He held the Black Dragon Sword tightly and carefully stepped into the One-Line Sky. He advanced cautiously.
After what happened just now, he finally realized how dangerous the Hidden Fog Mountain Range was.
In this mountain range where there were few people, he could encounter danger at any time.
Not only were living creatures, poisonous snakes, and insects fatal, but even the inconspicuous flowers and shrubs could be life-threatening.
