Misty Forest, Where a Great Thousand World Powerhouse Fell!

According to Jiang Xue's guess!

Since Lin Yang's house had collapsed, he would definitely need to find a new place to stay.

She ruled out inns and restaurants straight away.

According to the records in Lin Yang's Diary, he had some secrets he did not want anyone to discover.

Besides.

Lin Yang's cultivation had risen so quickly that unless he was an idiot, he absolutely would not stay at an inn.

Then next, what Lin Yang could do...

Was either continue renting a house.

Or come to Eagle Martial Arts School.

If Lin Yang rented a place in Great Eagle City, then with Eagle Martial Arts School's influence, there was no way he could stay hidden.

If he came to Eagle Martial Arts School...

"Crack, crack!"

Jiang Xue loosened her wrists and walked toward the direction where Eagle Martial Arts School was recruiting students.

If Lin Yang came to Eagle Martial Arts School at this time...

She definitely had to seize the chance early!

And properly teach this Lin Yang, whose mouth had no filter, a lesson.

Lin Yang knew nothing of Jiang Xue's thoughts.

At this moment!

He was quickly heading out of Great Eagle City, rushing toward the direction of Misty Forest.

He had indeed been thinking of going to Eagle Martial Arts School earlier.

However, Lin Yang rejected the idea.

What kind of place was this?

The Great Barren Domain!

It could be called the lawless land of the entire Great Yan Dynasty.

If he recklessly went to Eagle Martial Arts School...

And exposed his secrets...

He was not worried about Jiang Xue, but what about Jiang Lei?

And what about the other people in Eagle Martial Arts School?

Never overestimate human nature, especially in a lawless place like this.

So!

To be safe, and also to avoid repeating what had happened in Great Eagle City before...

Lin Yang decided he should first find a safe place.

Improving his strength came first!

That place was Misty Forest!

Misty Forest!

It was a strange forest located on the edge of the Great Barren Domain.

Within Misty Forest drifted a kind of icy chill—the Nine Heavens Cold Current!

In the original work!

The explanation for Misty Forest's cold air traced back to ancient times.

In ancient times, a supreme powerhouse from the Great Thousand World had fallen inside Misty Forest!

Whether that was true or false...

Lin Yang did not know, but it was true that Misty Forest was cold all year round and covered in snow.

On this point...

Lin Yang, who was approaching the edge of Great Eagle City, felt it most clearly.

For Lin Yang, who had already absorbed Yin-Yang Qi...

He could already block out ordinary cold and heat.

But at this moment, for Lin Yang, who was stepping onto the edge of Great Eagle City...

He still sensed the faint chill in the air!

This cold...

It could easily pierce through an Origin Power barrier, even seep through the skin, making a person truly feel that cold—and that desolation.

What came into view!

At the edge of the Misty Forest, the shadows of a few scattered villages could be seen.

On both sides of the road, the lush grass and trees had been replaced by sharp needlegrass that was even more drought-resistant.

A layer of glittering frost still hung over it.

The people who lived here all wore heavy furs to keep out the cold.

One had to know!

Right now, he was only at the edge of the Misty Forest and had yet to step inside.

Yet it was already a scene like this.

If he entered, that chill would be even more bone-piercing.

Whether any experts from the Great Thousand World had fallen here or not—

He did not know.

But!

The danger of this Misty Forest was absolutely beyond doubt.

If one wanted to enter it, one had to be led by an expert of the Three Realms of Creation. Even those at the Three Realms of Creation would encounter danger inside.

Of course, a Child of Destiny like Lin Dong was another matter entirely.

Even Lin Dong!

When he entered the Misty Forest, his strength had already reached the Form Creation Realm and the level of a Four-Seal Talisman Master.

That alone was enough to show just how dangerous the Misty Forest was.

Of course!

Although this place was dangerous, to Lin Yang, it was indeed an excellent place to cultivate and protect himself.

If the commotion from his cultivation grew too great and drew certain people's attention, he could also enter the Misty Forest!

The cold air inside cut off mental energy. If he hid in there, even experts of the Three Realms of Creation could forget about finding him.

"I'll stay here."

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Yang murmured.

Then!

He quickly walked along the villages at the edge of the Misty Forest.

Soon, when he passed the third village, Lin Yang entered it.

Black Forest Village!

This village was the most remote.

It bordered the Misty Forest.

It could be considered the most suitable place.

Of course, those who could live here were not ordinary people either.

Most of them were mercenaries!

Although the Misty Forest was dangerous, there were many heavenly treasures and demonic beasts within.

These people!

They made their living by entering the Misty Forest to hunt demonic beasts.

It was very similar to Qingshan Town outside the Magic Beast Forest on the neighboring Dou Qi Continent.

"So this is the Trading Post they mentioned."

Lin Yang looked at the three-story pavilion building before him and murmured.

The Trading Post!

It was similar to a marketplace and was also the core area of the village.

Not only could people exchange their gains from the Misty Forest inside, anyone who wanted to enter the Misty Forest also had to come here to form teams. It counted as a gathering point.

Standing outside the pavilion, Lin Yang could already hear the clamor inside.

Of course!

If one's strength was formidable, like those at the Creation Realm or Nirvana Realm, one could also enter the Misty Forest alone.

As Lin Yang stepped into the loft, the noisy clamor came to an abrupt halt.

Everyone's gaze turned toward Lin Yang at the same time.

This place was on the edge of the Misty Forest, and any newcomer who appeared here could always draw the attention of others.

However, when these people saw that Lin Yang was only a young brat, they withdrew their gazes with teasing smiles.

After a brief silence, the place was once again swallowed by the noisy atmosphere.

Of course, Lin Yang also noticed that there were still several gazes sizing him up throughout the hall.

Lin Yang paid no mind to those gazes.

He casually took in the hall's surroundings.

The hall was very spacious!

A bonfire burned in the middle, warding off the bitter cold outside.

In one corner, there was a fairly large counter, with many specialties found only in the Misty Forest displayed there.

At this moment, quite a few people stood outside the counter.

These people were all mercenaries with decent strength, the weakest of them in the Primal Core Realm.

Most of them were carrying in their hands, or hoisting over their shoulders, demonic beasts they had hunted in the Misty Forest.

Although this world also had Cosmic Bags similar to storage rings, these people, who lived with their heads tucked into their belts, clearly would not spend their money on something like that.

More often, they used it to improve their strength!

And the counter where they had gathered

should be the place where supplies were exchanged at this meeting point.

In another corner, there was also a staircase leading straight to the second floor.

However, at the stairway to the second floor stood two men dressed in black.

Judging from the auras emanating from their bodies, they were both impressively experts at the great perfection stage of the Primal Core Realm.

One had to know!

Above the great perfection stage of the Primal Core Realm were the Three Realms of Creation.

To have such experts guarding the door, it seemed that Black Forest Village was not as simple as he had imagined.

Just as Lin Yang was about to walk toward the counter, suddenly, the sound of a door opening came from the second floor.

Logically speaking, in such a noisy environment, that kind of door-opening sound would easily be ignored.

But as that door-opening sound rang out, the originally noisy hall instantly fell silent.
