After Xue Yao and her group left the valley, they did not give up the search for Bai Yichen. While they were training as planned, they also inquired about Bai Yichen's news.

They said it was a training, but in fact, every time they arrived at a place, they would first inquire about Bai Yichen's whereabouts.

However, no matter how hard they tried, Bai Yichen seemed to have evaporated from this heaven. Since he disappeared in Xuantian Cave that day, there has been no trace of him.

Xue Yao was becoming increasingly anxious, worried about whether Bai Yichen was in danger. However, she also understood that impatience would not solve the problem, but might make the situation worse.

After careful consideration, she decided to temporarily put aside the idea of looking for Bai Yichen and instead focus on improving her own strength as quickly as possible.

After all, only by becoming strong can we better cope with future challenges.

The search for Bai Yichen could only be left to nature as he experienced it. Sometimes, the more he forced himself, the less satisfactory the result would be.

In the days that followed, Xueyao and her companions experienced countless hardships, fought against various powerful monsters, faced various complex environments, and constantly challenged their limits.

Every battle is a test for them, but also an opportunity for them to grow. As time goes by, their strength gradually increases, and their cultivation becomes more refined.

Although Bai Yichen's whereabouts remain a mystery, Xue Yao believes that as long as she persists, she will find him one day.

Before that, she must continue to work hard and improve her abilities to cope with all future challenges.

Although the Demon King did not directly participate in her training, he never relaxed his secret protection for a moment.

One day, Xueyao and her companions came to a mountain called Qingyun Mountain. Legend has it that it contains ancient cultivation secrets and countless natural treasures.

The mountain is steep and shrouded in mist, as if it is isolated from the world. Xueyao and her companions decided to climb the mountain, hoping to gain something.

This time, they decided to walk the entire way instead of flying.

The sunlight filtered through the treetops, casting dappled shadows on the rugged mountain road. Xueyao and her companions climbed up step by step.

The mountain road twisted and turned, and every step seemed extremely difficult, but Xueyao's heart was full of determination. She knew that only through such hardships could her cultivation be truly improved.

As the altitude increases, the air becomes thinner and breathing becomes more difficult.

Xueyao's companions began to feel tired, but Xueyao seemed tireless, her eyes flashing with a desire for the unknown and a pursuit of power.

She encouraged her companions and used her strength to help them overcome difficulties and move forward.

Finally, they reached the mountainside.

Looking back on the road she had come, Xueyao was filled with emotion. It was a road full of challenges and sweat, but every step had forged her tenacity and growth. She knew that this was not just a simple climb, but also a spiritual experience.

From the time she traveled to Plum Blossom Mountain in the human world and then returned to this heaven, wasn't it the same all the way?

The scenery on the mountainside is unique, and the fresh air and tranquil environment make people feel relaxed and happy. Xueyao took a deep breath, feeling the power of nature, and her soul seemed to be cleansed.

She closed her eyes and let her thoughts drift away with the wind. The road ahead was still long, and she was no longer the Xueyao who had been bullied by others.

"Xueyao, let's move on." Su Xin's voice interrupted her thoughts.

Xueyao opened her eyes and nodded, a determined light flashing in her eyes. "Okay, we still have a long way to go, we can't stay here for too long."

She turned and continued to lead her companions toward the summit. The path grew steeper, but Xueyao's steps grew more resolute. For her, every challenge was an opportunity for growth, and she would not give up.

At that moment, an arrow flew towards her with a piercing sound. Just as it was about to hit her chest, Xue Yao reacted quickly, dodging the arrow's path.

In a flash, the arrow landed three steps away from her. Clearly, someone was secretly attacking them, while someone else was also secretly protecting them.

Her eyes became sharp and she scanned the surroundings vigilantly, while releasing her spiritual sense to search for possible enemies.

"Be careful, there's an ambush!" She whispered to her companions, drawing her sword and preparing to deal with possible danger.

Su Xin and other companions quickly prepared for battle. They knew that any accident on this steep mountain road could be fatal.

The source of the arrows was soon discovered. Several mysterious figures in black jumped out from behind the rocks, holding bows and crossbows, obviously well prepared.

But before Xueyao and her companions could make a move, several men in black had already fallen to the ground.

When they got closer, they found that these men in black all had the same pattern mark on their necks, a strange symbol they had never seen before.

Xue Yao frowned as she realized that these people were not ordinary bandits, but an organized murderer.

Inexplicably, she thought of the demonic beasts that had been possessed before.

Dark forces?

Xueyao narrowed her eyes slightly, and a sense of foreboding arose.

She quickly looked around to confirm whether her other companions were safe. At the same time, she wondered in her heart who was the force behind these men in black and why they attacked them?

She was startled when she suddenly thought of something.

Could it be that the demonic beasts that had been possessed before were not coincidences, but were deliberately arranged by someone?

She took a deep breath and tried to calm her heart. She knew that the most important thing now was to stay calm, find out the truth, and protect the safety of herself and her companions.

"We have to be careful. These people are not ordinary opponents." Xue Yao whispered to Su Xin and other companions, her voice revealing unquestionable determination.

The companions nodded one after another. They knew that Xueyao's judgment was always accurate, and now they needed to unite and face the unknown challenges together.

Xue Yao gripped her sword tightly, her eyes blazing as she scanned the surroundings, searching for any clues. Suddenly, her gaze was drawn to a black token scattered on the ground. She walked over, picked it up, and examined it carefully.

The token was engraved with an intricate pattern, similar to the markings on the necks of the men in black, but more elaborate and complex. Xue Yao's heart skipped a beat; she seemed to have seen this pattern somewhere before, but she couldn't remember where.

She frowned, pondering for a moment before a sudden flash of inspiration struck her. Could this pattern be connected to the mysterious organization she encountered in the human world?

Xueyao's heartbeat couldn't help but quicken as she realized that this matter might be far more complicated than she had imagined.

"It seems that our whereabouts have been monitored." Su Xin looked around vigilantly, fearing that there might be other ambushes.

Xueyao nodded. "This wave has been dealt with. I don't know if there will be more later. In any case, we must be careful."

She will definitely find out the origins of these people.

If they want her life, she won't be polite to them.

The group continued on their way, heading towards the top of the mountain. The road became increasingly treacherous, but their determination only grew stronger.

The ambush they encountered before didn't seem to have any effect on them.
