No one noticed his arrival—not even the slightest trace.
Nearby, two Hegemon Grade beings stood chatting, completely unaware of him.
The figure simply walked into Jue Shen Valley, strolling leisurely as if through his own courtyard!
Not only that, Jue Shen Valley was riddled with countless terrifying measures, both in plain sight and hidden away, all meant to prevent powerful beings from sneaking inside.
