Infiltration

After agreeing to meet near the Water Mansion, everyone used their own methods and headed north toward Myriad Demon Valley.

Other than the Ye Family Siblings, who traveled together, everyone else set out alone.

Traveling alone, Luo Hong was able to fully unleash the Great Five Elements Evasion. He crossed rivers by treading on water and passed through mountains by burrowing through stone, reaching the outskirts of Myriad Demon Valley in merely ten days.

Though Myriad Demon Valley sounded like a single valley, it actually covered an enormous area. Its outskirts were said to contain a hundred thousand mountains. Only because Old Demon Che's lair was located in a valley deep within those mountains did it gain the name "Myriad Demon Valley."

Such a vast territory clearly could not be covered by a formation, yet it was still fraught with difficulties for Cultivators seeking to infiltrate it.

That was because there were simply too many Demon Beasts in Myriad Demon Valley, including many whose Innate Divine Abilities resembled Spirit Seeking, Form Locking.

Driven by Shapeshifted Great Demons, they constantly prowled every mountain peak. Not even the slightest disturbance could escape their sensory abilities.

Under these overlapping and diverse sensory abilities, even Nascent Soul Stage cultivators could not penetrate deep into Myriad Demon Valley without a sound.

For one thing, the deeper one went into Myriad Demon Valley, the higher the cultivation of the Demon Beasts encountered.

More importantly, Cultivators' concealment methods were far too limited compared to the Demon Beasts' investigation methods.

Generally speaking, Cultivators relied on spiritual sense to detect auras and search for targets.

Thus, methods such as the Qi Concealment Technique, which could suppress one's mana aura, were especially useful.

But for Demon Beasts, using spiritual sense to locate enemies was not their primary means of perception.
