Moments later...
Moo… Mooo...
A golden ox in a state of extreme rage went on a frenzied rampage through this mountainous region. Wherever it passed, everything was shaken to dust.
Towering giant trees, stretches of primordial forests, and huge boulders—in front of this golden ox, they all seemed as fragile as paper, shattering upon contact!
From a distance, the earth quaked and the heavens shook, rolling clouds of dust blotted out the sky!
Countless birds and beasts fled in terror, their panicked cries filling the air everywhere.
This entire mountainous area was in utter turmoil.
This golden ox had returned to its underground cavern, only to discover the pool of golden liquid was gone. Instantly, it...
"That golden ox is truly enraged now."
In the distance, atop a certain mountain peak, Ye Yunfei stepped out from deep within the void. Gazing at the distant ox currently charging and crashing about wildly, he couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile.
"Heavens! Hurry and run! Get as far away as possible! That golden ox has gone mad again!"
Far away, a group of warriors had faces pale with terror. Even though they were already quite far from the ox, they didn't feel safe. Each of them desperately fled toward even more distant places.
This group of warriors was none other than Wu Kun and the others.
They had just been savagely chased by the golden ox, nearly suffering fifty percent casualties.
Fortunately, the ox seemed to suddenly remember something and rushed away.
Only then did the remaining warriors escape with their lives.
Now, seeing that the golden ox had started rampaging again, they dared not stay a moment longer, wishing only that their parents had given them two more legs.
"What's wrong with that savage ox? Who provoked it?"
Within this mysterious mountainous region at this moment, many powerful presences were also being disturbed one after another.
As these powerful existences awakened, terrifying auras began to permeate the mysterious mountainous area.
It was as if many primordial beasts, long dormant, were now awakening.
"Why do I suddenly feel like the atmosphere in these mountains has become frightening?"
"Me too! There are some terrifying auras. I feel icy cold all over, as if I've fallen into a frozen cellar."
Many young warriors who were exploring and venturing in these mountains suddenly felt a sense of creeping horror, as if they were standing beside supreme vicious beasts, sensing their dreadful aura.
"Something's wrong. We must leave immediately!"
Fearful now, warriors instantly activated their movement techniques and fled outward.
"This mountainous area indeed hides many terrifying existences. It's not a place to linger."
Ye Yunfei also furrowed his brows, thinking to himself.
Suddenly...
Neigh... Neigh...
Clear sounds of horse neighing came from the distance.
"A knight!"
Following the sound, Ye Yunfei's gaze sharpened.
He saw a knight clad entirely in black armor, holding a long black spear, astride a tall steed with wings.
This knight was shrouded in a layer of black mist. Particularly around the location of his head, a particularly thick swirl of black fog covered it, making it impossible to see clearly.
But with one glance, Ye Yunfei saw that this knight had no head at all.
Where his head should be, there was only swirling black mist!
A Headless Knight!
Ye Yunfei's pupils contracted rapidly, immediately recalling what the Elder of the Celestial Medicine Clan had said.
There were two most dangerous existences in this small world. One was a Headless Knight, the other was an old man carrying a stone coffin on his back!
Now, the Headless Knight was right before his eyes!
The knight held a long spear that glinted with a bone-chilling light. He rode his horse forward at a steady pace, possessing a demeanor that seemed to subjugate heaven and earth!
The horse would occasionally raise its head and let out a long neigh. Each time its four stout hooves landed, they caused the void to tremble violently.
A powerful aura emanated from the knight's body, surging forth like a tidal wave, clearly palpable even from a great distance.
Poof... Poof...
Wherever the knight passed, demonic beasts were instantly crushed into bloody mists by the oppressive aura before they could even react.
Ah! Ah!
Some warriors who hadn't escaped in time and found themselves slightly closer to the knight were instantly shaken to pieces.
As for the golden ox that had been charging around wildly earlier, the moment it saw this knight appear, it immediately quieted down. Tucking its tail, it scurried back into the underground cavern, hiding itself and refusing to come out.
"This knight is one of the most terrifying existences in this small world. Now that he's been awakened, I must leave the Divine Fall Land immediately!"
Ye Yunfei thought to himself.
Then, he turned and with a single step, merged into the void, quietly departing.
"Hmm?"
Just as Ye Yunfei merged into the void, the knight let out a soft sound of surprise. Instantly, the tall steed arrived at the spot where Ye Yunfei had just stood.
"A living being traversed through the void... Seems to be a young human. To possess such profound attainment in Spatial Laws at such a young age... What exactly is his origin?"
A voice came from the location of the knight's head, tinged with some doubt.
Then, the knight began to ride around.
The movements of the large horse seemed unhurried, its speed not particularly fast. But in fact, this was an illusion. The horse's speed was shockingly quick. With each stride, it traversed a vast distance as if teleporting!
Wherever this knight went, any living beings that got too close would be shaken apart.
Thus, although he did not take the initiative to attack, his mere presence terrified all creatures into fleeing desperately.
"Even the Headless Knight has appeared. It's time to go out. The expedition for treasures in this Divine Fall Land ends here."
Ye Yunfei did not linger any longer. He turned and headed toward the location of the Divine Fall Land's exit portal.
At this moment, only one day remained before the Divine Fall Land's opening time concluded!
Ye Yunfei had no wish to stay for this final day.
He knew that besides the Headless Knight, there were surely many more terrifying existences beginning to stir and awaken.
This small world was becoming more and more dangerous!
"It's too terrifying! There's a serpent taller than the mountain range! Run for your lives!"
"There's a monkey that breathes fire! It incinerated dozens of Soul Formation Realm experts in an instant! This Divine Fall Land is too horrifying! I don't want to explore and seek treasures anymore, life is more important!"
Now, as one terrifying existence after another in this small world began to appear, the warriors who had entered from the outside world for exploration and treasure hunting were all fleeing in panic. None had the slightest bit of inclination left to continue their quest.
Thus, warrior after warrior desperately fled toward the exit portal of the Divine Fall Land.
Finally, the numerous warriors gradually converged. Group after group, a veritable tide of people surged toward the exit.
Before entering the Divine Fall Land, the higher-ups of various forces had already instructed these disciples: When only one day remains before the closure of the Divine Fall Land, an exit portal would appear.
They just needed to find that portal to leave.
Moreover, the approximate location of that portal was at the edge of the Divine Fall Land, not far from the entry point. It was relatively easy to find.
Ye Yunfei blended into the crowd of numerous warriors, keeping an extremely low profile, heading toward the edge of the Divine Fall Land.
He realized that the terrifying existences within this small world did not proactively slaughter the young warriors who had ventured in from the outside world.
Otherwise, not a single one of these outside warriors would have escaped!
They only lost their lives if they happened to unwittingly run afoul or get too close to those terrifying beings.
"No wonder the powerful experts or the older generation didn't dare enter the Divine Fall Land themselves, and specifically sent these young warriors in. I suspect that if those more powerful experts from outside were to force their way into this small world, they would definitely attract the attention of its most dreadful denizens, bringing about their own doom."
Ye Yunfei mused silently.
"Haha... So it's disciples from the Heavenly Dao Academy! Halt!"
"Kill all these disciples! Don't let a single one escape!"
Just at this moment, several harsh shouts came from afar.
