Of course, the Endless Forest's size was far from just a hundred thousand miles. So the area that humans could enter was still very huge.
Otherwise, the South and North, two regions, were really going to be isolated for life.
And Ye Yuan's current destination was precisely this Forbidden Death Zone!
Although he did not know who the Fierce Gale World would send to hunt him down, Ye Yuan dared to confirm that it should be at least a middle-stage Divine Traversing Realm expert.
Such an expert, he could not defeat the person no matter what.
If he wanted to live, he could only force himself into a hopeless situation with no way out so that he would fight back desperately.
By the time Ye Yuan came to the three thousand mile region, he already put away the spirit boat and went on foot.
Because spirit boats pursued speed, their defensive strengths were generally very weak. Once they entered the territories of high ranking demonic beasts, it was very easy to suffer the attacks of flying-type demonic beasts. If the spirit boat was damaged because of this, then the loss outweighed the gain.
But along the way, Ye Yuan's progress was rather fast.
With White Light following him and giving off the power of a divine beast, the beasts all submitted along the way.
That power intimidated the forest like a tiger's roar throughout the whole journey!
"Haha! Sweet!"
Although White Light's body became large, he still had a child's disposition.
Teasing those low ranking demonic beasts, he felt very good about himself at present.
Ye Yuan chuckled when he saw the situation and said, "Your white tiger clan is the king of all beasts! Look at you, so childish!"
"Heh heh, Big Brother, you don't know how arduous it was for my mother and me to survive in the Endless Forest. If not for running into you, I wouldn't even be able to beat that Seven Colored Flowing Cloud Python, let alone talk about being whatever king of all beasts! Now that my strength is powerful, coming back to the Endless Forest again is to let those fellows who bullied my family before to prostrate!"
Although White Light said these while grinning, in his words revealed some forlornness.
When Ye Yuan hear White Light say so, he was filled with a vicissitude of emotions too.
Recalling when he met White Light back then, White Light was young and imm.a.t.u.r.e like a kitten.
Now, several years had passed. White Light already grew into a true king of all beasts.
Him returning to the Endless Forest again to regain face was also something within reason.
"En. In the future, us brothers will m.a.t.u.r.e together. We're going to let everyone who bullies us come and prostrate before us!" Ye Yuan also said with a grand, lofty sentiment.
"Haha! That's of course! Me, this divine beast, plus Big Brother, this freakish monster, whoever runs into us have to submit too!" White Light said with a big laugh.
"Ye Yuan, it's actually really you! You actually killed Shangguan Yunrong! Truly remarkable! However, today, you won't have that good fortune like during the previous time!"
Right at this time, Ding Liang who had been in hot pursuit finally made it!
Chapter 623 - Great Pursuit and Escape
Towards Ding Liang's arrival, Ye Yuan was not too fl.u.s.tered.
Not that he was not worried, but he was pretending to be unconcerned.
If he was not worried, why would he barge into this freaking Forbidden Death Zone?
"Huhu, truly, enemies meet on a narrow path. Didn't expect that Shangguan Yunrong's curse mark was actually passed to you!" Ye Yuan said very nonchalantly.
When Ding Liang saw Ye Yuan's manner, he said coolly, "Are you pretending to be relaxed? You don't think that you can still escape from my hands this time, right?"
Ye Yuan said smilingly, "Even Zhao Tianyin couldn't hold me back and even needed to kowtow and admit his fault in front of me. Just the likes of you wish to make me stay?""
Ding Liang's expression changed, his face instantly becoming as black as the bottom of a pot.
The Central Capital battle, the ones who knew the outcome were only him, Ding Liang, and people of Star Abyss's lineage.
That battle was not just the Wind Emperor, His Majesty's disgrace, it was also all the Fierce Gale World martial artists' shame!
The invincible Wind Emperor actually kowtowed towards a Crystal Formation Realm brat. That was simply unprecedented humiliation!
"You shut your mouth for me! If I don't kill you today, I'm lesser than human!"
"Heh heh, then you'll really not be able to be human today! You were present on that day. You should know that I have a powerful helper, right?" Ye Yuan said smilingly.
Ding Liang's expression changed as he recalled that terrifying woman on that day.
Even the Wind Emperor did not have the slightest strength to resist under her hands. That woman's horror could be imagined.
But he remembered the Wind Emperor's words again; the Wind Emperor had said that woman naturally had people to deal with her. This actually caused his nerves to ease up a little.
"Humph! Is she really around? Why don't you call her out for me to take a look!" Ding Liang said with a cold smile.
Ye Yuan was secretly startled. Could it be that this Ding Liang knew something?
How could he have known that in an accident arising from many causes, Ding Liang was also considered to have hit the mark by a fluke?
Yue Mengli's present condition was just coming out to intimidate people a bit. He did not expect that this Ding Liang did not fall for it at all!
But Ye Yuan obviously would not give up hope so easily. He said coolly, "Li-er, somebody wants to meet you. Show yourself for an appearance then!"
Under Ding Liang's horrified gaze, Yue Mengli really appeared!
"Last time, I spared your life. Didn't think that you still don't know how what's good for you!" Yue Mengli glared angrily and said, and she was about to muster heaven and earth essence energy.
Seeing Yue Mengli, Ding Liang's scalp really exploded. How could he still care about killing Ye Yuan? He turned around and fled desperately with all his might.
Ding Liang wished that his parents had given him a pair of wings to let him be able to fly a bit faster.
Ding Liang was an Eighth Level Divine Traversing Realm expert. In a twinkle, he already flew out several hundred miles away.
All of a sudden, Ding Liang was startled with a jerk and discovered that something was not quite right!
If that striking beauty really wanted to kill him, how could he possibly escape?
Also, if that woman was really that powerful, why would Ye Yuan go deep into a dangerous place as well?
Played by this fellow!
Although he did not know what happened, that woman definitely had no way of helping Ye Yuan!
Otherwise just now, a hundred of him would be dead too!
Sensing the curse mark again, Ye Yuan had indeed sped like the wind in the opposite direction.
Ding Liang, as an upper echelon of the Fierce Gale World, was not foreign to the Endless World. He knew that the place around two thousand miles ahead was the Forbidden Death Zone.
He understood that this was Ye Yuan wanting to force himself into a desperate situation so that he could risk it all. With this tussle, both parties instantly pulled apart close to a thousand miles!
"Damn brat!"
Ding Liang gritted his teeth and raise his speed to the limits, chasing after Ye Yuan.
"Big Brother, this fellow's movement speed is too fast!" White Light said anxiously as he ran.
Although Flowing Light White Tigers' forte was speed, Ding Liang's cultivation realm was much higher than theirs. His movement speed was naturally a great deal faster compared to theirs as well.
Although Ye Yuan used a trick to scare Ding Liang away, this fellow's reaction speed was still pretty fast. He actually chased after so quickly.
"You just care about ru
nning forward. Leave the rest to me!" Ye Yuan said.
"Big Brother, you have to be careful!"
The two people sped like the wind while communicating how to deal with it. In a blink, they sprinted for several hundred miles.
But how fast was Ding Liang's speed? In just this short while, he already shrunk the distance between both parties to only a distance of two hundred miles!
Both parties' strengths were too powerful. The places that they pass through, even Tier 4 demonic beasts had to give a wide berth!
"Ye Yuan! Wait until this old man catches up to you! I must flay your skin and pull out your tendons to be able to dispel the hatred in my heart!"
Ding Liang had long been enraged to the limits. Being fooled by Ye Yuan this brat, how could he, this old monster, not be furious?
"Old fogey, if you have the capabilities, then chase all the way into the Forbidden Death Zone!" Ye Yuan replied.
"Boy, you don't be c.o.c.ky! If you have the capabilities, run inside first before talking!"
"Old fogey, you don't be c.o.c.ky! If you have the capabilities, catch up first before talking!"
The two people's feet did not ease up for a second, but their mouths started quarreling.
Seeing as both parties' gap was getting smaller and smaller, Ding Liang's aura already rose to the peak!
Even when separated by such a great distance, Ye Yuan could also feel the other party's horrifying pressure.
Looks like this old punk was really infuriated by him!
Two hundred miles . . .
One hundred miles . . .
Fifty miles . . .
Both party's gap was getting increasingly smaller, while Ye Yuan's distance away from the Forbidden Death Zone was also getting lesser and lesser!
Finally, when there were still several miles away from the Forbidden Death Zone, Ding Liang caught up to Ye Yuan!
"White Light, go!"
Ye Yuan already had no time to keep White Light into the Vast Heaven Pagoda at this time. He could only let him enter the Forbidden Death Zone first.
As for what this Forbidden Death Zone had, Ye Yuan did not know either!
Perhaps this was his survival path, or maybe it was actually his death gate!
Actually, Ye Yuan had long thought it out clearly. Since he revived, he was indeed intertwined with a great destiny. Several incidences of hopeless situations, he turned the dangers all into safety.
Perhaps this so-called Forbidden Death Zone was his survival path too!
Therefore, that was why Ye Yuan was willing to take his chances!
Under Ye Yuan's instructions, White Light leaped and vanished.
And Ye Yuan himself turned around abruptly and faced Ding Liang coldly.
"Stinking brat, prepare to die!"
Ding Liang did not have the slightest hesitation. Straight away, it was his strongest attack!
Ye Yuan did not hesitate at all as well. He directly fished out a Void Escape Thunderous Explosion Talisman and threw it over at Ding Liang.
Ding Liang originally attacked in rage and already calculated that Ye Yuan was dead for sure. Who knew that Ye Yuan suddenly pulled out such a powerful weapon!
This Void Escape Thunderous Explosion Talisman was equivalent to a peak Divine Traversing Realm's attack. The might of its power could be imagined!
But Ye Yuan also knew that this Ding Liang was an Eighth Level Divine Traversing expert after all. For this Void Escape Thunderous Explosion Talisman to want to kill him, it was still a little lacking.
So after he threw out the Void Escape Thunderous Explosion Talisman, Ye Yuan immediately turned around and ran madly.
There was not much essence energy left in his body at this time. But Ye Yuan's present physical body was extremely formidable too. Even without the support of essence energy, running for a few days and nights was not an issue either.
Rumble!
A massive impact sounded out. Ding Liang muffled groan came from behind Ye Yuan.
But Ye Yuan did not even turn his head back, running over towards the Forbidden Death Zone!
Ahead was a mass of dense fog.
Ye Yuan did not hesitate the slightest bit, plunging headlong inside . . .
Chapter 624 - A Gamble!
Bang!
Ding Liang suddenly struck a palm out, shattering a large tree by the side into smithereens. It could be seen just how immense the fury in his heart was.
Calculated everything and he still could not predict that Ye Yuan actually had a Void Escape Thunderous Explosion Talisman!
This time, not only did he not catch Ye Yuan, he even let himself suffer considerable injuries instead.
To think that he was still swearing solemnly before, saying that Ye Yuan could not escape this time. In the end, he still ran away.
Facing the layers upon layers of dense fog ahead, Ding Liang was somewhat shrinking back.
He knew that behind this dense fog was human martial artists' forbidden land. Even peak Divine Traversing Realm experts would also not come out again when entering this Forbidden Death Zone.
En . . . Accurately speaking, they did come back. It was just that what came back was just a corpse.
According to the information that the Fierce Gale World collected, this Forbidden Death Zone was the Endless World's most terrifying place. Even His Majesty did not dare to step foot inside too.
Before departing, Zhao Tianyin repeated exhorted the few of them just two matters.
One of it was to not provoke the Endless Forest's demonic beasts. Most importantly, to absolutely not enter the Forbidden Death Zone!
The other matter was to be sure to kill Ye Yuan!
Now, these two matters actually miraculously overlapped together.
Then . . . could this Forbidden Death Zone kill Ye Yuan or not?
Ding Liang pondered, a place where even His Majesty did not dare to step foot into, Ye Yuan could not possibly survive, right?
Ding Liang suddenly recalled something. Reaching his hand out and taking a look at the curse mark in his hand, his expression could not help changing. He actually lost connection to Ye Yuan's curse mark!
This Forbidden Death Zone was truly abnormal. To actually be able to cut off the response between the curse marks!
This divine soul curse was extremely malicious. It was like a bone infesting maggot. As long as the person inflicted by the curse did not die, this curse would never ever be removed.
Even Ding Liang, this Eighth Level Divine Traversing expert, was unable to accomplish cutting off this response. But this Forbidden Death Zone could!
"Screw it. I'll just wait here and do nothing! This boy is bloody freaky. If he can really come out from there, then it won't be easy to handle! Either way, as long as he leaves the Forbidden Death Zone, no matter where he walks to, I'll be able to sense it!"
Ding Liang made a decision very quickly.
. . . . . .
"White Light, where are you?"
In the dense fog, Ye Yuan called out White Light's name repeatedly. But did not get any response.
In front of his eyes was completely a stretch of haziness. Nothing could be seen at all.
All the way until Ye Yuan walked for an entire day's time in this dense fog did he finally confirmed two things.
One of it was that he got separated from White Light!
The other thing was that . . . he was lost!
This dense fog was seemingly expansive. No matter how he walked, he could not reach the end too.
With Ye Yuan's knowledge and experience, he did not know what the hell this dense fog was either.
But Ye Yuan could confirm one thing; this dense fog was currently devouring the essence energy within his body!
This one day and one night, Ye Yuan did not do anything at all, but the essence energy in his body was actually only left with two-thirds of the original!
At this rate, there was still three days' time, and then the essence energy in his body would be completely fully exh
austed.
This bit, Ye Yuan was not very worried. Coming out this time, he brought sufficient medicinal pills on him and was totally able to sustain for a very long time.
What Ye Yuan was worried about was that he would be lost in this dense fog all the way.
That was the most terrifying thing!
This dense fog did not seem to have anything at all; it was deathly still, as if there was only Ye Yuan alone left in the entire world . . . and this dense fog.
This sort of feeling virtually made people feel despair!
No wonder the Endless World's people all called this place as the Forbidden Death Zone. Even if peak Divine Traversing Realm experts entered, facing this boundless gray fog, they would probably go crazy in the end too.
Even if you had unparalleled magical abilities, you could not find a passageway to give vent either.
Furthermore, it was very clear that the more you expend essence energy, the faster you die!
In the gray fog, regardless where you walk to, all of the scenery was the exact same; all a stretch of haziness. There was completely no way of differentiating what place you walked through just now.
Under such an environment, wanting to walk out of the dense fog was simply an impossible matter!
Two whole days, Ye Yuan just walked like this, seemingly aimlessly. As he walked, before his eyes were forever a stretch of gray haziness.
During this period, Ye Yuan consumed a medicinal pill, restoring his essence energy to the optimum state.
But at this time, his essence energy was only left with two-thirds again.
Two days later, Ye Yuan finally could not walk anymore.
He suddenly stopped, crossed his legs and sat down, and actually started visualizing the 'Lin' word formula!
"This dense fog isn't an array formation. But I feel that I'm walking around in circles continuously! It looks like I've walked for two days and nights and seemed to have walked very far, but actually, I didn't walk out very far at all! Even with my heart realm maintaining Heart Like Still Water state, it also can't see through this dense fog. Since that's the case, then I can only break through Heart Realm to be rescued from the hopeless situation!"
