Xiao Mingyuan brought Xiao Xuan away. Only Xiao Yan remained for the rest of the journey. However, it was fortunate that they would reach the Fire Maple Forest after passing through the Poison Cave. It was likely that they would not meet with any trouble during the remaining journey. However, Xiao Yan felt a little uncomfortable without Xiao Xuan by his side.
When Xiao Yan had just arrived in this world, the person closest to him was Xiao Xuan. Not only did they come from the same continent, but they were also blood relatives. Now that the Xiao clan from the Middle Region had suddenly appeared, it was unavoidable for Xiao Yan to form a grudge in his heart. However, so what? Could he stop Xiao Mingyuan?
Since Xiao Mingyuan had already left, he had to speed up his journey. He had to find Ye Honglian and raise his cultivation as soon as possible. Just as Xiao Mingyuan had said, compared to the southern region, the central region was the place where the true experts of this continent gathered. If he wanted to see Xiao Xuan again, he had to go to the central region. Thus, raising his cultivation as soon as possible became an inevitable process for Xiao Yan.
Of course, this wasn't just for Xiao Xuan. There was even more, such as … Xun Er!
After passing through the Poison Cave, Xiao Yan saw a fiery red mountain forest in the south from afar. At first glance, it really did seem like a large expanse of flames was burning. It was like a sea of fire in the world. Such a scene was rather shocking.
"Tsk tsk … is that the Fire Maple Forest? How magnificent."
Xiao Yan couldn't help but exclaim when he saw this scene, and the expression in his pitch black eyes gradually became solemn.
According to the Burning Sky Ancestor, the Fire Maple Forest was a forbidden place in the extreme south. No one who had ventured deep into the Fire Maple Forest had ever returned. There had even been experts at the Origin King Realm who had attempted to enter the Fire Maple Forest, but they had similarly never returned. It was precisely because of this that the Fire Maple Forest became famous and became a taboo place in the hearts of everyone in the extreme south.
Now, Xiao Yan wanted to venture into the so-called forbidden place in the extreme south, the Fire Maple Forest!
But before that, there was something else he had to do.
After turning his head to look at the Poison Cave behind him and confirming that no one was chasing him, Xiao Yan sat cross-legged in the air and slowly closed his eyes. His heart gradually calmed down as he sensed the flow of aura in the world.
After a couple of big battles, Xiao Yan had already faintly sensed that his Sky Extinction Steps could finally advance another step. He planned to use this little time to allow his Sky Extinction Steps to reach the advanced Ling Yun stage before he entered the Fire Maple Forest. This would be another improvement in his overall strength. At that time, it was likely that he would no longer need to be afraid even when facing an ordinary expert at the great Yuan King class.
Following Xiao Yan's calmness, everything in the world, regardless of whether it was the wind, the sand, or the moving clouds, everything had become clear. Xiao Yan's body did not move. However, there were afterimages appearing all over the sky. Those afterimages repeatedly disappeared, agglomerated, disappeared, and agglomerated again. This continued until all the afterimages had become real. There was no longer any flowing air in the sky. Clouds drifted. Xiao Yan's tightly shut eyes were only suddenly opened when the sky became dark.
"Buzz!"
The instant Xiao Yan opened his eyes, an invisible whirlwind suddenly swept out in all directions with Xiao Yan at its centre. Everything in the world was swept away. There was no sand or dust in the air. Everything was as clear as a mirror, and all the haze had been washed clean.
A moment later, Xiao Yan's body, which was seated cross-legged in the empty space, slowly disappeared under the blowing of the wind. He had long since disappeared from this world.
Xiao Yan stood outside the Fire Maple Forest in black robes. He raised his eyes to look at the boundless fiery red mountain forest before him. Xiao Yan felt a little hesitant in his heart.
After running around for a few days, coupled with the continuous battles, he had finally arrived outside the Fire Maple Forest. But … was Ye Honglian really here? If she wasn't here, then wouldn't his trip be in vain? Moreover, with the Fire Maple Forest's fierce reputation, once he barged in and couldn't find Ye Honglian, it would be hard to say what would happen.
However, since things had already come to this, it was useless to think too much about it. Whether or not he could find Ye Honglian, Xiao Yan would have to personally make a trip to the Fire Maple Forest to know.
"Huff …"
After letting out a long breath, Xiao Yan gathered all his strength and flew towards the Fire Maple Forest. However, after flying for a thousand miles, he still didn't see anything unusual. He only felt that the Fire Maple Forest in front of him was vast and boundless. No matter how he flew and searched, he couldn't find any trace of the 'Heavenly Flame'. Even when he used the 'Heavenly Flame' to search for Ye Honglian's tracks, it didn't have the slightest effect.
Not only was there no aura of the 'Heavenly Flame' in this place, he was also unable to sense the aura of Magical Beasts. This place was really like what the outside world said. Although it was a mountain forest, it was a land of death. There were no humans or Magical Beasts.
However, it was also at this moment …
A change appeared between heaven and earth once again!
"Buzz!"
A frightening aura suddenly descended on Xiao Yan's head. All of this happened so quickly and so ruthlessly that he was completely caught off guard. He didn't even have the chance to retaliate. His entire body was heavily smashed into the mountain forest below. An invisible force broke the surrounding crimson trees and sent soil flying. The moment Xiao Yan's body fell to the ground, he hurriedly used the 'Giant Elephant Tactic'. Relying on the golden body, he blocked this frightening aura.
"Huh? You are actually able to block my aura and pressure. You do have some ability. No wonder even the people from the two great sects were unable to subdue you. However, since I have personally taken action today, Xiao Yan, obediently accept your fate! "
A voice that was filled with dignity reverberated across the sky like a bell. When Xiao Yan suddenly raised his head and looked over, he saw a masked fellow whose entire body was covered under a black robe slowly extending his hand in the sky. His five fingers grabbed and an invisible force immediately controlled Xiao Yan's body. The golden body that was agglomerated by the 'Giant Elephant Tactic' also gradually crumbled under this force.
The person in front of him was many times stronger than Xu Cong's group!
However, the most important point was that this fellow …
"Ghost Hall!"
The person who had attacked was undoubtedly the Ghost Hall!
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk … Have you recognized me? So what? With the current you, what ability do you have to escape from my palm?"
A familiar laughter was once again transmitted into Xiao Yan's ears. Almost at the same time as his words sounded, the force that wrapped around Xiao Yan's golden body suddenly increased. Immediately, a 'bang' sound was heard. The 'Giant Elephant Tactic' that had always been successful was powerlessly shattered. At the same time, a mouthful of fresh blood was suddenly spat out from Xiao Yan's mouth.
Faced with the person in front of him, even if Xiao Yan used all his strength, he was still unable to obtain a trace of survival for himself …
"Dammit … He actually gave up just like that …"
"Screech!"
However, just as the person from the Ghost Hall was laughing coldly, a ruthless cry that penetrated the clouds in the sky above the Fire Maple Forest instantly broke the former's control over Xiao Yan.
