Whoosh!
Xia Ping sprinted at full speed, using the Kunpeng Step. Like a giant bird, he moved with incredible speed, racing past mountains, rivers, valleys, swamps, and more.
He ran for two or three full days, covering thousands of kilometers before finally reaching the central region of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
"This is the central region?"
As soon as Xia Ping reached the heart of the mountain range, he sensed that a mysterious force surrounded the area. Deep within its core, faint traces of extremely evil demonic energy seeped out, making his heart tremble.
A thin layer of energy barrier covered the outer perimeter, like an eggshell wrapped around the area. It kept anyone from seeing what lay inside, making the place seem mysterious and strange.
"Haha, after several days of travel, we've finally reached the central region."
"This is the heart of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, where the Water of Life is said to be?!"
"I can feel that this is the source of the evil aura. It seems to be suppressing countless evil monsters."
"It really is extraordinary. There's no time to waste—let's go in and take a look. We don't want someone else getting there first."
At that moment, besides Xia Ping, a number of other students had also reached the central region. There were at least twenty or thirty of them, and they gazed excitedly at the energy barrier before them, eager to give it a try.
Whoosh!
Without a word, Xia Ping immediately walked inside. He instantly felt that the space had become vastly larger. Before him stretched an endless chain of enormous mountains, with towering peaks standing in his path. Each one was at least ten thousand meters tall, soaring into the clouds and reaching toward the sky. They looked incomparably majestic.
