Valley Temptation
Half a month later, Xia Yang's injuries were almost healed.
It was also at this time that Liu Erlong found out that Balak Kingdom had sent out men and was preparing to capture the three of them.
In any case, what they killed was a noble with real power, and this matter could not be easily resolved.
Therefore, the situation was urgent, and the three people immediately decided to leave the castle immediately and go to the nearby Border Mountains to temporarily avoid the limelight.
They went into the mountains this time with two main goals.
The first is to avoid the manpower sent by the Balak Kingdom and avoid further conflicts between the two parties.
The second is to help Xia Yang and Tang Yuehua hunt for their respective fourth, Third Soul Ring.
After packing up, the three of them left the castle.
They first returned to the town at the foot of the mountain and replenished some supplies.
Afterwards, the three people set off towards the Border Mountains.
Seven days later, they finally arrived at their destination - Border Mountains.
However, what the three of them saw in front of the Border Mountains was a scene of jagged rocks and sparse trees.
In many places around here, there are even bare mountains exposed.
"Why is this place like this?"
Xia Yang looked at the desolation in front of him and couldn't help but ask.
"Probably because this place is located at the junction of the Star Luo Empire and Balak Kingdom."
Tang Yuehua thought for a moment and replied, "Balak Kingdom here may have deliberately cut down large areas of forest to prevent enemy sneak attacks, so as to prevent the enemy from using the trees as cover."
On the other side, after hearing Tang Yuehua's reply, Liu Erlong frowned and asked, "But if the forest is so sparse, then there must not be many Spirit Beast living here."
"In this case, can we really find Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear?"
"After all, the scarcity of Spirit Beast means insufficient food. Spirit Beast as powerful as Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear has a huge demand for food."
"This..."
Tang Yuehua was at a loss for words and couldn't answer.
"Okay, don't think so much now."
Xia Yang interrupted the discussion between the two and said, "Since you are here, no matter what, you have to go and see for yourself to know whether there is Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear here."
After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the depths of the mountains.
In fact, Xia Yang was not very confident about finding Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear this time, and he even had doubts about the map he got from the Earl's Mansion.
After all, Martial Soul of the Count Schultz family is "Blazing Flame Rose" and has nothing to do with Bear Class Spirit Beast.
Why would they collect a map marking the location of Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear?
However, the temptation of Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear was too great, and Xia Yang deliberately ignored these doubts intentionally or unintentionally.
He secretly told himself that even if there was only one chance in ten thousand, it was still worth a try.
So, the three of them walked through the mountains and forests for another two days.
As they continued to go deeper, the surrounding scenery gradually changed.
Deep in the Border Mountains, the trees here have become taller and denser, and the forest has become a bit more vibrant. It is no longer as barren as when we first entered the mountain.
"This is what Soul Hunting Forest should look like."
Liu Erlong looked at the thick old trees around him and his tone became more relaxed.
"Brother Xia, according to the marks on the map, we should be arriving soon."
At this time, Tang Yuehua suddenly reminded.
"How far is it?" Xia Yang asked.
"Climb the mountain in front, and there is a small valley below."
"Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear marked on the map is in this valley."
Tang Yuehua held the map, pointed forward, and explained.
"Okay, then let's speed up."
The three of them stopped talking and quickly hurried towards the top of the mountain.
After trekking in the forest for so many days, they all hope to complete Soul Hunting as soon as possible.
Not long after, they reached the top of the mountain, and a small valley surrounded by mountains suddenly appeared in front of them.
Although the area of this valley is not large, the environment here is completely different from other places in the Border Mountains.
I saw that the valley was humid and warm, with luxuriant vegetation and vines Entanglement, and a few faint whistles of Spirit Beast could be heard.
The whole valley exudes a kind of vigorous vitality.
"I never expected that there is such a good place hidden in the Border Mountains."
Liu Erlong looked around and couldn't help but admire, saying, "The Heaven and Earth Energy and environment here are almost comparable to some places in Star Dou Great Forest."
"Seeing such an environment, I finally have a little more confidence in finding Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear."
Tang Yuehua also smiled and said.
"Okay, let's take out the things we prepared before. We hope to lead to the target as soon as possible."
Xia Yang said to the two of them.
The three of them immediately started to set up three large tanks as tall as one person at the entrance of the valley.
For safety reasons, they did not plan to directly enter the valley to search, but planned to lure out the possible Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear.
As for how to induce it, the key lies in these large tanks in front of you.
Immediately afterwards, Xia Yang opened the cylinder heads one by one.
I saw these three large vats filled with honey that was golden in color and thick in texture.
These honeys are exactly the bait Xia Yang and the others specially prepared for Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear.
As Xia Yang opened the cylinder cover, a sweet and rich aroma suddenly filled the air.
You can tell from the smell that these honeys are of excellent quality and absolutely extraordinary.
However, the natural diffusion range of the smell of honey is limited. If you want it to spread throughout the valley, you need some assistance.
"Erlong, it's up to you."
Since the relationship with Liu Erlong has progressed, Xia Yang has become much more affectionate with her.
Liu Erlong rolled her eyes at him, but she still walked to the big vat, started Soul Power, and slowly approached one of the vats of honey with her hands.
"Third Soul Skill: Dragon Fire Soaring to the Sky!"
Liu Erlong shouted lowly, and a blazing flame suddenly appeared in his palm.
Under the heat of the flame, the aroma of honey evaporates rapidly, turning into a sweet mist that is almost visible to the naked eye, and drifts away deep into the valley along the wind.
Next, Liu Erlong followed the same method and heated the other jars of honey one by one.
It didn't take long for the rich sweet fragrance to envelope the entire valley mouth and spread deeper into the forest.
So, after making arrangements, the three of them found a secluded location to rest near the mouth of the valley.
However, every once in a while, they reheat the honey to keep the scent going.
Now, everything is ready.
The next step is to wait patiently for the prey to take the bait.
In this way, Xia Yang and the others waited quietly at the mouth of the valley for three hours.
Before I knew it, the sky was getting dark.
A bright moon rose quietly and hung directly above the valley.
The cool moonlight shines on the quiet mountains and forests.
Just when the three of them thought that this operation would be in vain, suddenly.
"Ho--"
A deafening beast roar came from deep in the valley, breaking the tranquility of the night.
