The man thought, They don’t use guns. There must be another group.
He continued to move forward cautiously. After a short while, he stopped. He saw a familiar bug in the tree.
Does this mean someone is guarding here?
He looked up at the mountain. He thought about it for a while before proceeding. The map was just a route to the destination. To find the herb, he had to rely on himself.
The mountain was densely forested and under the safeguard of someone. It would be very difficult to get the matter done.
The man hiding under the ground before he left the mountain village had told him, “Go up the mountain and then go down the mountain. The valley is in the dense forest.”
Go up!
The middle-aged man chose another path, which was the worst way up the mountain. If it was easy to do, many people would take this way. Its difficulty kept most people away.
He walked slowly. He soon needed to stop to rest and observe the situation. With his current physical condition, he needed to avoid fighting as much as possible, especially with those masters. It took him a day to carefully travel to the top of the mountain. When he reached the top, the sky was dark. After a little rest, he started to go down the mountain. He couldn’t wait. The sword of death was hanging above his head and slowly falling. At any time, it could possibly speed up and kill him.
His surroundings were covered in darkness. There was also darkness in his body. Toxins were eroding his internal organs and other parts of his body, including his eyes. His vision was already somewhat reduced. He was beginning to have double vision. He had to move through the jungle more slowly because he needed to be careful.
In the middle of the night, a light rain began to fall.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Huh!
Under the light, the middle-aged man’s face had turned completely black and blue. It was very ugly.
He adjusted his breathing before taking a break and eating a little food. He was soon on the move again.
He was finally at the bottom of the mountain.
Valley… Where is the valley?
He needed to find the entrance to the secret place. Enduring the pain in his body, he carefully searched, trying not to miss even a trace of a clue.
Alright?
He finally found a trace. There was a spider about the same size as a palm. It was dead.
He grew up in southern Yunnan and had a deep understanding of the jungle. Although he could not guarantee that he knew all the creatures in the jungle, he knew most of them, especially the poisonous ones. As far as he knew, there was no such type of spider in the jungle. That meant the spider might have come from the secret place.
He finally had a clue.
He continued to search. He found a ruined flower under a weed. If he hadn’t been careful, he wouldn’t have seen it.
He carefully picked up the flower. Although it was ruined, he could smell a special aroma from it.
A little light lit up under the tree. It could not be seen from even six feet away because the light was carefully blocked.
It’s a blood orchid!
The middle-aged man’s fingers trembled. This was an orchid, but it was twice as large as an ordinary orchid. The whole plant was blood red, which was a bit weird.
He hesitated a moment before eating the ruined petal. It was a little sweet and a little bit astringent with a peculiar aroma. Apart from that, nothing seemed to be special about it.
After eating the flower, he drank a bit of water and continued searching. He did not find anything. He thought, Does that mean it is not here?
He moved his gaze up to look at the mountain and saw another huge spider body.
I am going in the right direction.
He continued to go up the mountain and found a centipede over a foot long and a large snake as thick as a bowl. These things were extremely rare in the jungle but were native to the area.
It is near here!
The closer he got, the more careful he was. Following the horrible creatures, he came to the mountain. After a difficult trek, he saw a cliff. It stood up about 1,000 feet and was extremely jagged. From a distance, it appeared to be at a 90-degree angle.
There was no way out.
He looked up at the sky in the distance.
Bottom!
He took out the rope from his bag and started climbing down the cliff.
After navigating it for more than 32 feet, he suddenly felt vertigo. He loosened his hands, causing his body to quickly fall. He subconsciously grasped the rope. His body was blocked by the trees on the cliff in mid-air. They helped him avoid falling off the cliff, sparing his life, but the impact was not small.
Huh, hiss!
He felt pain throughout his body when he moved.
He endured the pain and slowly went down.
Time passed slowly. When light appeared in the sky, the man fell under the cliff. It was uneven and full of trees and rocks. Those difficulties were secondary to the large number of poisonous insects that began to appear. There were 2-foot-long tadpoles, spiders as big as palms, and big snakes 22- to 28-feet long. All the creatures within close proximity to him. If it weren’t for the special medicine in his body, as well as the condition of his body, he might have been food for these terrible creatures.
His surroundings gradually brightened.
The middle-aged man found a valley in the dense forest. It was very secretive.
Is it the Inner Valley?
It should be here.
Someone is coming!
He leaned down and crouched in the grass. He saw a man being chased by a bucket-sized snake.
What a big snake!
He carefully watched for a while before proceeding onward. It was strange that none of the poisonous insects attacked him. It was as if they didn’t notice this strange intruder and let him go.
Well, good fortune!
He came to the edge of the valley without any problems. The Inner Valley was big, and the trees were lush.
Dangerous, very dangerous!
This was his first feeling.
He went down to the valley. This time, he was going smoother he had been before. It was more than 320 feet deep, and there was a lot of standing water in the valley. The water was cold and slightly red. It had the smell of blood. Several dead bodies could vaguely be seen.
There is something in it!
He was standing in water. The shore was 32 feet away.
Go!
He slowly entered the water, which created a grunting sound. Bubbles began to form in the water. He moved slowly toward the shore.
A slight howling sound came from the water.
Suddenly, he heard gunfire nearby.
Someone is here again.
A black body suddenly appeared in the water.
Snake! A giant snake!
The middle-aged man stopped in the water. He watched the big snake, which only showed a section of its body. It slowly dove into the water. After a while, the man continued to move forward. He walked in the water for nearly half an hour. Just when he thought he was safe from the danger, a big tail came out of the water and heavily hit him. The impact sent him flying into the air. He hit a tree on the shore and passed out.
When he awoke, he discovered he was alive but could not move his body. The snake was violent and caused great damage to his body. His already scarred body could not get much worse.
I will die here!
His body’s vitality was gradually dying. Suddenly, a person fell from the sky and hit the ground. The man was dead, but his eyes were still open. The middle-aged man could tell that the other man had been very unwilling to die. The man had a bag with him. A small part of it was open, revealing its contents. It was a bag of blood orchids.
The middle-aged man shivered. The orchids were about a foot away. It took him 10 minutes to reach out, grab some, and eat them.
In the jungle, fighting continued.
The middle-aged man was using all of his effort to eat the flowers. The bag of blood orchids could eliminate countless deaths.
The will to survive was very powerful.
