The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

After Jiang Chuan received the Qingyun Token personally awarded by Qingyun Sect Master Qing Yinyan.

He was naturally overjoyed.

This token not only signifies a significant improvement in his status within the Qingyun Sect.

This further symbolizes his potential to become the next sect leader of the Qingyun Sect.

Under Qing Yinyan's arrangement, Jiang Chuan allowed her to stay temporarily so that he could prepare to meet up with Zhong Xuan, the vice sect leader of Qingyun Sect, to hunt down the fleeing Diviner Alliance.

During this time, Duoduofei and Lingjuan arranged for Jiang Chuan to stay at the Qingyun Sect to temporarily avoid the limelight.

Above an enclosed space.

Jiang Chuan, Zhong Xuan, and representatives of other forces were nervously watching the eastern perimeter of the enclosed space.

At this moment, an elderly man with late-stage Earth Rank strength appeared beside Zhong Xuan, his eyes sharp, seemingly having his own insights into the hiding place of the Diviner Alliance.

"Jong-hyun, where do you think the Diviners' Alliance is hiding?" the old man asked, puzzled.

Jonghyun stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze withdrawing from the outer edge of the void and landing on Jiang Chuan.

He had already disguised himself and had not been discovered.

Jonghyun smiled and said, "Young Master, do you have a good method?"

After Jiang Chuan obtained the Qingyun Token, he had the potential to become the next sect leader of the Qingyun Sect, which is why Zhong Xuan addressed Jiang Chuan in that way.

Jiang Chuan's status was now higher than Zhong Xuan's as the deputy sect leader, and he spoke much more politely.

“Jong-hyun, I think the Diviner Alliance might choose a secluded place, such as deep in the mountains or a hidden valley,” Jiang Chuan said.

Upon hearing this, Jonghyun nodded in agreement.

He continued, "Then we'll start from these places and investigate them one by one. At the same time, we can utilize the resources of the Qingyun Sect, mobilize manpower, and intensify our search efforts for the Diviner Alliance."

Following Jiang Chuan's lead, Jonghyun and his group entered a dark and damp area in the eastern part of the enclosed space.

The terrain here is treacherous, a forbidden place in the world, and a suffocatingly cold aura permeates the surroundings.

They walked along a winding underground passage, which was dark and gloomy, with only occasional faint light filtering through from a distance, casting dappled shadows on the damp stone walls.

The air was filled with the smell of earth and decaying plants, making one frown.

Jonghyun gripped his weapon, the long banner, and cautiously surveyed his surroundings.

Now that he has one foot in the Celestial Realm, he senses that many ferocious beasts live here.

They lurk in the darkness, ready to attack at any moment.

Jiang Chuan walked at the front, seemingly very familiar with the road conditions.

At the end of the underground passage was a spacious cave, which was dark and damp.

A cold wind blew in from the depths of the cave, making people shiver.

Thick moss covered the cave walls, and occasionally one could see some strange cave creatures that shimmered with green light in the darkness, making them look particularly eerie.

Jonghyun and his group carefully entered the cave. In addition to being cold and damp, the cave was also filled with a strong smell of blood.

Jiang Chuan stopped and scanned the cave walls with his eyes. The marks left by sword energy and the scattered bloodstains silently told the story of a fierce battle.

He spoke softly to Jonghyun and the others in his entourage, "A fierce battle took place here not long ago; it must have been left behind by the Diviner Alliance when they fled."

Jonghyun nodded, sharing the same thought. He secretly admired Jiang Chuan's observational skills, but what puzzled him even more was that he couldn't discern the level of Jiang Chuan's strength.

"Does the young sect leader have a good plan to bypass this dangerous place?"

"We can't just force our way in like this, after all, the situation here is far too unfavorable for us."

Jonghyun spoke up.

Jiang Chuan's gaze swept around the cave, searching for a possible breakthrough.

He slowly began, “Jonghyun, I’ve observed that although the passages here are winding, there don’t seem to be any obvious traps. We can try to follow the traces of the battle to find any escape routes they might have left behind.”

Upon hearing Jiang Chuan's words, Zhong Xuan couldn't help but frown.

His heart was filled with doubts and worries.

Jiang Chuan's suggestion was based on an accurate assessment of the situation, but Zhong Xuan couldn't help feeling uneasy in the face of such a dangerous and unknown place.

Zhong Xuan hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Young Sect Master, I understand what you mean, but the situation here is indeed too complicated. Although we have found some traces of battle, who can guarantee that these traces are not traps to mislead us? Moreover, the people of the Diviner Alliance are all cunning and treacherous, and we cannot be careless."

Jiang Chuan looked at Jonghyun and could sense his unease, but that was exactly what he needed.

“Jong-hyun, I understand your concerns, but I trust our intuition. Now that we’re here, we can’t give up easily,” Jiang Chuan said.

So Jiang Chuan, Zhong Xuan, and the others began to traverse Death Valley.

In this Death Valley forgotten by time.

At the entrance to the canyon, the deep crevice seemed like a gateway to another world.

And that's exactly what they stepped into—a realm full of unknowns and dangers.

The roars of wild beasts echoed along both sides of the road.

Their voices echoed repeatedly on the canyon's echo walls, sending chills down one's spine.

The roars of those wild beasts were filled with anger and fear, as if warning the intruders.

This is not their territory; any creature that dares to challenge them will pay the price.

The canyon is densely forested with tall, ancient trees whose branches and leaves block out the sun, making it difficult for sunlight to penetrate.

In this green ocean, all sorts of exotic plants grow exceptionally lushly.

Suddenly, a gust of wind howled past, accompanied by a low roar.

More than a dozen ferocious beasts emitting a green glow emerged from the depths of the dense forest in the canyon.

These ferocious beasts walk on all fours, have enormous bodies, and sharp rhinoceros horns on their heads.

Their eyes gleamed green in the darkness, clearly filled with resentment and hostility towards Jiang Chuan, Zhong Xuan, and the others for their intrusion.

"Protect the young sect leader!" Zhong Xuan shouted sternly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards around him reacted immediately and quickly surrounded Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan was instantly surrounded by more than a dozen armored warriors, armed with various advanced weapons, standing ready to provide him with solid protection.

As Jonghyun gave the order, his body seemed to transform into a streak of light and vanished from the spot in an instant.

When he reappeared, he was already standing in front of a ferocious beast with the strength of a late-stage Earth Rank.

His cultivation level had reached the realm of the Heavenly Realm.

A powerful aura emanated from him, causing the surrounding air to tremble.

The long banner in Jonghyun's hand fluttered in the wind, each banner containing boundless power.

He waved the long banner, and powerful spells were released from the banner, forming dazzling beams of light that struck the beast.

The beast sensed Jonghyun's powerful aura, and its roar became even more ferocious.

Its rhinoceros horn flashed through the air with a cold light, each swing accompanied by a whistling sound, and a bone-chilling cold filled the air. Just when everyone thought Jonghyun would easily kill his opponent, a draw occurred.

His body was thrown backward more than ten meters by the impact of the rhinoceros horn.

The beast was also forced back, its steps faltering, and the green light on its horn dimmed slightly.

This scene shocked everyone present. It was truly terrifying that a beast at the late Earth Rank could fight against Zhong Xuan.

"Do it!"

After exchanging blows, Jonghyun gave orders to the special agents around him.

The extraordinary individuals around him were all highly skilled, carefully selected. Knowing what Jonghyun's order meant, they immediately dispersed, each seeking an opportunity to attack the beast.

Some of the extraordinary individuals wielded long spears, some brandished broadswords, and others cast various spells.

Their movements were swift and precise, each move designed to weaken the fighting power of the beast pack.

As the free-for-all progressed, both sides became embroiled in fierce combat.

Despite the large number of the hundred or so extraordinary individuals led by Jonghyun, they did not have a clear advantage against these ferocious beasts.

Each of the beasts fought a desperate battle against Jonghyun and his men single-handedly.

Their ferocity exceeded everyone's expectations.

These ferocious beasts are enormous and incredibly strong. Their thick hides make them impervious to blades and spears; they are the steel behemoths of nature.

They move freely through the jungle, each leap as awe-inspiring as a mountain.

Each swing was accompanied by the sound of wind breaking through the air, making people tremble with fear.

During the battle, the extraordinary individuals used all their skills, some even unleashing powerful spells.

Some wielded sharp weapons, while others used softness to overcome hardness, employing agility to evade attacks from ferocious beasts.

These beasts are far more ferocious than imagined; they seem to feel no pain or injury whatsoever.

He recovers quickly from each injury and returns to the fight.

The number of casualties among the warriors gradually increased; some were scratched by the claws of wild beasts, while others were pierced by rhinoceros horns.

Some lost their balance in the chaos and were knocked down by a single blow from a ferocious beast.

Nevertheless, they did not give up, but instead fought even more tenaciously.

As time passed, Jiang Chuan realized that these ferocious beasts were about to become too much for him, so he decided to use some methods to attract more of them.

"I need to pee, I'm going to relieve myself." Jiang Chuan said to the guard beside him, then disappeared. He reappeared in a dense jungle, where he took out the fragrant pills that wild beasts use when they are courting.

The pill lay in Jiang Chuan's palm. He circulated his internal energy and gently waved it.

The aroma of the pills wafted on the breeze.

This scent is extremely attractive to predators; they are instinctively drawn to it.

Jiang Chuan stood still, waiting quietly.

Soon, the roars of wild beasts could be heard in the distance. Drawn by the aroma, they surged toward Jiangchuan.

After finishing, Jiang Chuan looked at Zhong Xuan and his group and laughed, "You people want to slaughter my Diviner Alliance? Haha, how laughable."

As more and more wild beasts were drawn by the scent, Jonghyun frowned.

He keenly sensed that something was amiss.

The number of these beasts far exceeded his expectations, and they were even more ferocious, stimulated by the aroma, their crimson eyes revealing their madness.

"Get out of here! Where's that smell coming from?"

Jonghyun quickly spoke up.

Upon hearing this, the extraordinary individuals were startled and immediately withdrew from their bodies, quickly leaving this dangerous place.

Just as they were about to act, the bloodshot-eyed beasts pounced on them like hungry tigers.

These beasts are enormous and incredibly strong. With a single heavy leap, they can crush a martial arts master to pieces, like Mount Tai pressing down on you.

The intensity of the battle exceeded Jiang Chuan's expectations.

Jonghyun and his subordinates, who were already at a disadvantage, are now even more exhausted from dealing with the situation.

Guided by the scent, the beasts' internal energy became agitated and restless, making their attacks even more ferocious, with speed and power far exceeding what they had just experienced.

Although Jonghyun and his fellow warriors were highly skilled in martial arts, they began to feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of ferocious beasts.

Their figures moved swiftly through the jungle, each evasion fraught with danger, and each counterattack fraught with peril.

Sword light and magic intertwined in the air, forming beautiful arcs.

However, none of their moves could deliver a fatal blow to the beast.

As defeat became increasingly apparent, Jonghyun and his men were unable to resist. Their faces, which had been composed before, were now filled with anxiety and worry.

Jonghyun knew that if things continued like this, he would not only lose more subordinates, but he might also lose his own life.

At this critical moment, a decision must be made and all possible measures must be taken to turn the tide of the war.

"Form the Azure Cloud Formation!"

Jonghyun shouted, his words carrying an unquestionable command.

Following his instructions, his hands began to move rapidly in front of him, his fingers flying as if drawing an invisible pattern.

The movements were swift and precise, each gesture accompanied by a powerful fluctuation of energy.

The surrounding extraordinary individuals immediately sensed the change in this aura.

They knew that Jonghyun was casting a powerful formation that could not only enhance their combat power but also confuse and suppress the ferocious aura of the beasts.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Jonghyun's forehead; the Azure Cloud Formation was not easy for him to execute.

It requires extremely high magical power and a profound understanding of formations.

But in this critical moment, he had no choice but to do everything in his power.

As Jonghyun's gestures became faster and faster, the surrounding air began to distort.

Invisible energies gathered around him.

These energies intertwined like fine threads, gradually forming a huge energy vortex.

The extraordinary individuals felt the surge of this energy, and a sense of confidence welled up within them.

If Jonghyun can successfully unleash the Azure Cloud Formation, they will have a chance to turn the tide.

Jonghyun's breathing became rapid, and his magical power was being rapidly depleted, but he did not relax in the slightest.

His eyes were fixed on the energy vortex in front of him, and his hands moved faster and more powerfully.

Finally, under everyone's watchful eyes, the energy vortex reached its peak. Jonghyun clasped his hands together abruptly, and a dazzling light erupted from his hands, instantly enveloping the entire battlefield. (End of Chapter)
