In a small forest shrouded in thick fog, there was suddenly a rustling sound, and then a black shadow flashed past, and stopped on top of a big tree.

The black shadow squatted on the treetop as if looking at something, not even daring to take a breath.

As his eyes flickered, the surrounding scenes suddenly appeared in the sight of the man in black.

This is a small valley of less than 300 square meters. The mountains on both sides of the valley are covered with lush and towering trees, but they are faintly visible under the shroud of mist.

On the ground, thick fallen leaves piled up on the ground, exuding a rotten smell. Occasionally, there were rotten bones of small animals scattered on the ground. There were almost no weeds on the ground, and everything was covered by fallen leaves.

This dark figure is none other than Xiao Ran, who just walked in from outside the foggy forest.

After looking around, Xiao Ran frowned slightly.

In his previous life, Xiao Ran also entered the Mist Forest from this position, but the way he entered was extremely embarrassing. He was almost chased into the Mist Forest by a large group of monsters, and finally walked there.

However, things are a little different in this life. At least until now, Xiao Ran has not found any traces of monsters around him, but he has found a lot of footprints.

"Roar..."

A low roar suddenly came up from the bottom of the valley. Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, and then he looked over intently, but he couldn't see what was going on below at all.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Ran slowly closed his eyes, and the mental energy in his mind immediately covered the small valley like a surge.

This time there was no obstacle, and the mental power flowed directly through the air toward the small valley.

However, Xiao Ran's movements were extremely slow, for fear of disturbing these monsters.

Although these monsters were only the lowest level one, they were still a bit of a trouble, and Xiao Ran really didn't want them to discover him.

Soon, Xiao Ran's mental power extended to the place where the sound had just been made.

After seeing the scene below clearly, Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, with a look of surprise on his face.

In the center of the small valley below, there was a water pool with a size of 100 meters. Around the water pool, there were a large number of low-level monsters drinking water. After seeing it clearly, Xiao Ran immediately withdrew his mental power. Since

There was no danger, so Xiao Ran was ready to escape.

Just as Xiao Ran recovered his mental power, a sound suddenly sounded from the sky. Xiao Ran was startled and immediately looked up.

However, Xiao Ran immediately felt relieved and stretched out his hand with a smile on his face.

I saw something flying down from the sky immediately, and when it landed on Xiao Ran's hand, I saw clearly that it was the colorful black phoenix.

In fact, before Xiao Ran entered the forest of mist, Wucai Xuanhuang directly told Xiao Ran that he was going out for a while. Although he didn't understand why, Xiao Ran let him go, and now he is back again.

Seeing that the colorful black phoenix was not in any danger, Xiao Ran felt relieved. After placing the little phoenix on his shoulders, he quietly landed on the ground. With the long sword in his hand, he faced the mist without hesitation.

He jumped into the depths of the forest.

Because it was outside the forest of mist, Xiao Ran didn't have much to worry about. He used his shadow step to the extreme. He poured all his cultivation into it and quickly jumped into the depths. If he looked from a distance, he could only see a black streak.

The figure kept appearing and disappearing.

The speed along the way is very fast, and there is almost nothing that can hinder Xiao Ran. If any magical beast approaches, Xiao Ran will release his own momentum. As a result, some timid magical beasts no longer dare to come. If

There were also magical beasts without eyes, which Xiao Ran didn't mind killing directly.

However, what made Xiao Ran regretful was that Xiao Ran didn't care about the magic core of the first-level magic beast, and he didn't collect it. He focused on rushing along the way. Once he encountered a powerful magic beast, he would quietly avoid it. If he couldn't avoid it, he could only

Took a detour.

The Forest of Mist is always filled with fog. No one knows why this is the case. It is recorded that it existed a long time ago, and it has the effect of getting lost. Many people cannot find their way out after entering.

, so it became one of the forbidden places.

However, it seemed that Xiao Ran didn't care about this dangerous forbidden area at all.

Xiao Ran's figure was seen constantly. Every time he appeared, he rushed out immediately. Only when he was exhausted would he stop to restore the energy consumed by his body.

The night was gradually getting darker. It was difficult to see very far inside, and the sun had slowly set, making it even more difficult to see clearly what was going on inside.

In desperation, Xiao Ran had no choice but to run towards a small canyon with Xiao Huang, and then sat down cross-legged on an unusually thick tree.

He casually took out a Tuxuan Crystal and gave it to Xiao Huang on his shoulder to eat. Then he took out some dry food from the space ring and started eating.

It's not that Xiao Ran doesn't want to eat the meat of those monsters running on the ground, the key is that he doesn't have the ability. Catching those monsters will naturally not be a problem, but if he lights a fire here, it will undoubtedly become the most obvious sign in the entire forest of mist.

I can't even run away.

After eating, Xiao Ran leaned on a huge tree branch and meditated. Xiao Huang, who was on Xiao Ran's shoulder, flew to the nearby tree branch and looked at Xiao Ran quietly without saying a word.

The night passed slowly, and when the early morning sun penetrated through the thick clouds in the sky and shone on Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran's eyes slowly opened.

After a night of hard training, the true energy in Xiao Ran's body increased again, but without the help of the spirit gathering array, the growth rate during this period was much slower, but this did not hinder Xiao Ran's own confidence.

Looking around, Xiao Ran was suddenly surprised.

Night is when the magical beasts are most active in this misty forest, and it is also when the magical beasts come out to look for food. However, what makes Xiao Ran puzzled is why there were no magical beasts approaching within 500 meters of this place all night last night. Even if there were occasionally,

He also left immediately, which made Xiao Ran puzzled.

However, Xiao Ran has one good thing. If you can't figure out something, then don't think about it. It's useless to think about it. So Xiao Ran consciously stopped thinking about it and found a place with a mountain spring in a secret place to wash up.

After that, I ate some dry food in a hurry and hit the road again.

It has been a full month since Xiao Ran left Tianwu City. Even if Xiao Ran could afford it, Xiao Ran's sister couldn't afford it.

Holding a long sword in his hand, one person and one bird quickly disappeared into the depths of the misty forest.

After Xiao Ran left, not long after, the space where Xiao Ran was standing suddenly fluctuated. Then, a circle suddenly appeared, and a figure slowly appeared where Xiao Ran was standing.

This is a young man, who looks like he is only in his early twenties, with black hair hanging loosely on his shoulders. The colorful robes worn on this person give people a sense of majesty.

What's more important is that when this person opens and closes his eyes, there are always flashes of light. With the appearance of this person, all the magical beasts around him disappear, and they don't even dare to make a sound.

Along with the appearance of this person, a burst of fragrance suddenly appeared.

This young man who suddenly appeared looked at the direction Xiao Ran left for a long time without looking back, as if he could see through everything.
