They believed that Zhao Yuande must be impatient and wanted to ascend that huge mountain as soon as possible to get out of this world and become the champion of this competition.
What's the use of being the champion! It's not like this is the final round. All three of them had this thought in their hearts.
At this moment, there were only a total of 30 people in the Thunder Swamp. The others either didn't find this place or died in this chaotic space-time. So no matter when they left, they would be qualified for the final round.
Zhao Yuande naturally didn't know what they were thinking. However, even if he knew, he wouldn't care. Because this would make them look down on him instead. In a battle between experts, the slightest mistake could lead to a huge difference. Maybe because of this little psychological change, he might be able to gain the upper hand.
He walked out of the Thunder Swamp and arrived at the foot of the huge mountain. He discovered a winding path that led to the top of the mountain.
This path seemed to have been dug out by someone. Could it be that the previous Myriad Dao Conference also had this stage?
Zhao Yuande was puzzled, but he didn't care about it. He followed the winding path and went up.
There were tall trees on both sides of the path. After walking for a few hundred feet, Zhao Yuande's footsteps stopped. He could vaguely feel that there seemed to be some kind of mysterious creature spying on him from between the trees.
However, when he stopped, this feeling instantly disappeared.
No matter how his divine soul swept through the trees, he couldn't find any clues.
Did I see it wrongly?
Zhao Yuande shook his head and continued forward. He believed that if there was really something following him, it would show up sooner or later.
The huge mountain pierced through the sky. Zhao Yuande couldn't estimate how tall it was. The sparse trees around the path gradually became denser. From time to time, roars of beasts could be heard.
"There are actually demonic beasts here!" Zhao Yuande's divine soul saw a second rank demonic beast, Green Abyss Leopard, in the forest.
This big guy was a hundred feet long. It came and went like the wind in the forest. However, it was frightened by Zhao Yuande's aura and didn't dare to attack him.
However, after walking for a few hundred miles, Zhao Yuande felt a very dangerous aura. A fishy smell came from the dense forest.
"Screech!"
A loud cry was heard as a huge black bird with a body length of three hundred meters rushed out of the dense forest.
A pair of sharp claws that flickered with a pitch-black light clawed at him.
Zhao Yuande didn't try to dodge the sharp claws. Instead, he countered the attack with a punch.
"Crack!"
The crisp sound of bones cracking rang out as the giant bird's claw collided with Zhao Yuande's fist. The claw shattered, and the giant bird's several feet thick leg was broken and twisted. Its huge body slammed into a giant tree, snapping the tree in half.
Zhao Yuande looked at his bloody fist and shook his head.
From the looks of it, this big bird should be a Tier 4 demonic beast, with combat power equivalent to a late-stage Eternal cultivator.
In the end, his physical body was still unable to withstand the terrifying attack of this kind of demonic beast. However, his bones were far superior to the opponent's. This punch did not cause any damage to his bones, but the opponent's leg bones were shattered.
"Screech!"
The pitch-black bird let out a mournful cry, full of fear. It flapped its wings and tried to rush into the dense forest.
"Still want to leave?" Zhao Yuande's figure flashed and appeared in front of the pitch-black bird, punching towards its head.
The big bird's eyes flashed with horror, but Zhao Yuande's speed was too fast for it to escape.
Its eyes suddenly revealed a crazed look, and a terrifying power erupted from its body.
"Whoosh!"
The black feathers on its body looked like sharp immortal swords, sweeping towards Zhao Yuande.
"It's just a futile effort!"
Zhao Yuande's spirit soul could only cover a few hundred feet, but it was enough.
His figure disappeared in an instant, avoiding the bombardment of so many black feathers at once.
The earth issued a thudding sound, which was the sound of black feathers piercing into the mountain.
"Die!"
Zhao Yuande flashed again and smashed the pitch-black bird's head with a punch.
"This saves me the trouble of plucking your feathers when I eat you!" Zhao Yuande looked at the big bird in front of him and could not help but smile.
He threw the big bird's body into his inner world. This was a fourth grade demonic beast, and if it was made into a delicacy, it would definitely be of great help to his cultivation.
He continued to move forward for a while. Although he could feel that there were demonic beasts lurking in the dense forest on both sides, these demonic beasts did not come out to fight with him. Naturally, he would not provoke them.
Now, he just wanted to reach the top of the mountain as soon as possible and see if there was a path to the outside world.
But soon, layers of fog appeared in front of him. The fog covered the entire area, and he could not see more than three feet. A gloomy aura spread out from the fog, and even his spirit soul was suppressed to the point where it could not leave his body.
"Woo!"
Whistling sounds came from the fog, mixed with the rustling of leaves. It was as if there was a big snake slithering quickly in the fog.
Looking at the path that led into the fog, Zhao Yuande felt that he was a little nervous.
He retreated a distance and carefully observed the area covered by the fog. He found that this area occupied almost one-third of the entire mountain. As long as he crossed this area, he would not be far from the top of the mountain.
"Hu!" It was the first time Zhao Yuande was so nervous. He felt that something was wrong, and he should not be in such a state.
"There must be something in this foggy area that's affecting my emotions, causing me to feel fear!" Zhao Yuande calmed down and analyzed carefully. "Why does the thing inside want me to feel fear? It should not want me to step into this fog! Why does it not want me to enter? Maybe it is afraid of my strength! "
Thinking of this, he felt that he had sorted out his thoughts. He did not hesitate anymore and strode into the fog.
"Hehe!"
A burst of creepy laughter came from behind him. The sound was far and near, making him feel as if there was a ghost following behind him.
But at this time, his spirit soul covered an area of more than ten feet. As long as something came close to him, he would be the first to discover it and strike.
He walked along the path under his feet. Suddenly, the scenery around him changed. It was as if he had suddenly barged into a dense forest. His feet were sticky, and every step he took was very difficult.
He looked down and found that the ground was covered in sticky red liquid. This liquid was flowing, and sobbing sounds came from the front. It seemed to be the voice of a woman.
