This time, Lin Feng did not waste time in the low-level Magic Beast zones, instead charging straight into the gathering grounds of level six and seven Magic Beasts.

"Hey, Boss, there seems to be a valley up ahead," Beibei, standing on Lin Feng's shoulder, suddenly communicated via soul transmission.

Having wandered this area for over three months, Lin Feng's eyes lit up at these abrupt words. He immediately looked up and gazed toward the front.

A narrow valley entrance appeared before Lin Feng. Although the opening was tight, the gleam in Lin Feng's eyes grew brighter. He clearly remembered the description of the Misty Valley in Coiling Dragon: narrow at both ends, wide in the middle.

Lin Feng tapped his feet and, before long, arrived at the edge of the valley.

Seeing the unique structure of the valley and the massive amount of white mist within, Lin Feng finally confirmed that this was the "Misty Valley" he had been searching for so bitterly but could never find.

"Haha, truly, one spends all their effort searching for something, only to find it when they least expect it." Thinking about how he had roamed this area for over three months without discovering this valley, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel frustrated.

White mist swirled below; standing at the top of the cliff, it was impossible to see what lay beneath.

Lin Feng held his Flat Blade as he peered down. He had spent three thousand gold coins to have this blade forged, and its sharpness and durability were far superior to his old Black Short Blade. After all, for Lin Feng, the Flat Blade felt more natural to use.

Dense earth-style elements gathered around Lin Feng following his incantation, eventually forming a suit of armor that appeared ancient and simple. Looking closely, one could see the material resembled jade, though it radiated the aura of earth-style elements.

The level nine earth-style spell: Earth Guardian Sacred Armor.

Although both the level seven and level nine Earth Guardian Sacred Armor were made of jade-like material, their hardness was worlds apart.

Fully prepared, Lin Feng cast his Flight Technique and flew into the depths of the Misty Valley.

"Boss, be careful. I have a feeling this valley is very dangerous," Beibei said to Lin Feng via soul transmission.

"Don't worry, Beibei. Although this valley is dangerous, my current strength is enough to handle it."

The further down they flew, the wider the cliffs on both sides became; the bottom of the valley was clearly astonishingly vast. Lin Feng flew very cautiously through the white mist, carefully observing every direction. Beibei was also watching with extreme care, as they were simultaneously looking for Blue Heart Grass.

"Boss, does this godforsaken place really have Blue Heart Grass?" Beibei's eyes darted around, searching for the herb while staying alert for potential danger.

"Of course. I never do anything I'm not sure about," Lin Feng replied while communicating with Beibei, never relaxing his vigilance. From the original book, Lin Feng knew this Misty Valley was perilous. The Lin Feng of the original story had barely escaped with his life. Although his current strength was countless times greater than when the original Lin Feng entered, he dared not let his guard down, lest he capsize in the gutter.

Lin Feng carefully moved along the cliff face.

"Boss, I see the Blue Heart Grass. It's right ahead." Beibei's eyes were sharp. Lin Feng looked closely, and his eyes lit up.

The grass leaves were emerald green, with a faint blue halo shimmering within them.

"I hope there isn't a Green-Striped Giant Python." Lin Feng dared not be careless. He wasn't afraid of a Green-Striped Giant Python, but once he started fighting one, it would easily attract other Magic Beasts. He had no confidence in dealing with an entire army of them.

The Green-Striped Giant Python was green, and if one wasn't careful, it could be easily overlooked against the vine-covered cliff, so Lin Feng demanded a hundredfold caution from himself.

After observing for a while and confirming there were no Green-Striped Giant Pythons among the green vines, Lin Feng flew over with extreme caution.

He plucked the Blue Heart Grass. It felt cold to the touch, and a smile appeared on Lin Feng's face. This icy sensation was indeed a characteristic of the Blue Heart Grass. Lin Feng carefully placed it into his Space Ring and then continued his slow search.

"Roar~"

"Gaa~"

Various roars of Magic Beasts echoed from below. The chaotic sounds made Lin Feng's heart tremble. Even with the mindset of a level nine Great Magus, he couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation upon hearing those grating beast roars. The sounds came from all directions below; just by the roars alone, he could tell there was a massive number of Magic Beasts down there!

Through the white mist, Lin Feng could already vaguely see a lush patch of grassland.

"Boss, be careful. I sense some very powerful Magic Beasts down in this valley," Beibei warned.

"I know." Lin Feng raised his vigilance to the maximum, his eyes carefully scanning his surroundings, especially the vines clinging to the cliffs, fearing a Green-Striped Giant Python might be hiding among them. Being discovered by one beast meant being discovered by a whole pack.

"It's a Winged Bird Dragon." Lin Feng spotted a blurry, large flying Magic Beast soaring in the distance and quickly flew away to the side.

Although the Winged Bird Dragon was only a level six Magic Beast and posed no threat to him, Lin Feng didn't want to get entangled with it. Once he attacked, the ripples of combat would surely attract the attention of other beasts in the valley. If they swarmed him, he would have no choice but to flee in a panic.

"Gaa, gaa~" Suddenly, a strange cry rang out, and it was heading directly toward Lin Feng's position.

"Not good." Lin Feng's expression changed slightly.

He looked toward the source of the sound and saw the blurry shapes of twenty or thirty massive Winged Bird Dragons flying toward him.

The Winged Bird Dragons were so large that twenty or thirty of them flying together was practically enough to blot out the sky.

With so many Winged Bird Dragons, Lin Feng had almost nowhere to hide.

Lin Feng now had three choices: fight these Winged Bird Dragons directly, fly upward to escape, or dive rapidly toward the bottom and plunge into the valley.

"Whoosh!"

Without hesitation, Lin Feng dove straight down. White mist rushed to meet him, and within a few breaths, he was like a sharp arrow plunging into a patch of lush weeds, where he lay motionless.

Lin Feng moved carefully until he reached the edge of the weeds, peering through the gaps to observe the valley.

It was a very wide valley with rivers and lush grass—a paradise on earth. However, in this paradise, there were groups of enormous reptiles.

Two stories tall and thirty meters long, they had scales that looked like rocks, each one the size of half a person.

Information naturally surfaced in Lin Feng's mind: "Earth-Walking Dragon, level six Magic Beast, fire-style."

"If there were only one Earth-Walking Dragon, it wouldn't be scary, but..." Lin Feng's gaze swept briefly, "There are definitely over a hundred of them. If over a hundred Earth-Walking Dragons charged, there would be no way to stop them."

"What kind of wretched valley is this? It feels like a gathering place for the Dragon race. Level six Winged Bird Dragons, Earth-Walking Dragons, level seven and eight Velociraptors, and even level nine Wyverns and Spined Iron-Armored Dragons."

Lin Feng grumbled to himself, not daring to relax his vigilance. Let alone a small level nine Great Magus like him, even a Saint Realm expert could potentially perish here if they weren't careful.

"But they aren't fast enough, so they don't pose much of a threat to me." Lin Feng looked toward the other Magic Beasts.

"Why are there so many carnivores in this valley? Groups of Earth-Walking Dragons, massive numbers of Velociraptors, Winged Bird Dragons flashing through the air from time to time, and even large pythons slithering through the grass. According to biological common sense, such a large group of carnivores shouldn't be able to coexist in such a small canyon. I used to think the author hadn't thought it through, but now it seems this is simply a fact. Damn it, it looks like this other world really can't be understood with common logic."

Lin Feng observed his surroundings and indeed discovered a river running east to west within the canyon, with water constantly flowing in from the east.

While sneaking forward, Lin Feng carefully searched for Blue Heart Grass. According to the original Coiling Dragon book, there was a large patch of Blue Heart Grass within the canyon.

"The elemental energy of heaven and earth is truly dense here. It seems the magic array in the cave that seals the Gebada Plane is the culprit."

Lin Feng cautiously snuck toward the east. In this valley, whether it was the Earth-Walking Dragons, Velociraptors, Green-Striped Giant Pythons, or Winged Bird Dragons, they were all massive Magic Beasts. Lin Feng, being such a small figure, was completely inconspicuous as he snuck through the grass that stood over a meter tall.

"This valley is long enough!"

Lin Feng had advanced about twenty miles toward the east, yet he still hadn't found the end of the valley. At the same time, Lin Feng also discovered new tribes of Magic Beasts.

Level 6 Magic Beasts, Two-Winged Pegasus, and Level 7 Magic Beasts, Thunder-Winged Pegasus.

Various winged pegasi were either flying in the sky above or strolling through the valley, lowering their heads to graze on the grass.
