The town of Qingfeng is surrounded by great mountains, with ancient trees reaching the sky and primitive dense forests everywhere. Deep in the mountains, there are many strange beasts, and ordinary people do not dare to enter deeply.

  Ye Fan only knew that this endless mountain range was the outer area of the ancient forbidden land after living in Qingfeng Town for a period of time.

  The State of Yan is two thousand miles long from north to south and three thousand miles wide from east to west. The ancient forbidden land is located in the central part of the country, surrounded by endless great mountains, this primitive area is over eight hundred miles around.

  Lingxu Cave Heaven, Yanxia Cave Heaven, Yuding Cave Heaven and other six Cave Heavens are all located on the outer edge of this primitive area.

  At this moment, Ye Fan plunged into the depths of the mountain, constantly running in the dense forest, as if he wanted to rush into the ancient forbidden land immediately. He felt that his life was threatened and wanted to get away from the small town behind him.

  I hope my premonition is wrong...... After running for more than two hours, he didn't know how many big mountains he had crossed before stopping to catch his breath in a mountainous area.

  Suddenly, he heard a loud roar of a beast, the sound was so loud that it was deafening, like a thunderbolt tearing through the sky, rolling and surging forward.

  "It's the direction of Qingfeng Town……" Ye Fan climbed up a cliff like a swift monkey, lifted up the vines and entered a secret stone cave. He held his breath, suppressed his vital energy to the lowest point, his body was icy cold, without any vitality.

  Soon, he saw through the vines a strange beast with scales all over its body in cyan color carrying a knight of Jiang's family rushing past in the sky.

  "They've really come after me...” Ye Fan's pupils contracted, his heart was icy cold. The knights of the Jiang family were terrifying, he had witnessed it with his own eyes. If he was discovered, he would undoubtedly be dead.

  Moments later, the powerful knight rode back on a strange beast, circling repeatedly between the distant mountains and this area.

  "He locked down this area, has he discovered me?" Ye Fan's entire body was icy cold, feeling close to death.

  At the same time, he was furious in his heart, and the other party must have come for the treasure on him. If discovered, there would be no way to survive. However, at this moment, he did not dare to get too excited, he didn't dare move, his vitality dropped to freezing point, and he hid in the stone cave like a piece of dead wood.

  It wasn't until two hours had passed that the strange blue beast in the sky finally disappeared into the distance, gradually vanishing over the horizon. But Ye Fan didn't dare move, and it wasn't until the sky was completely dark that he nimbly climbed out of the cave, quickly rushing towards another mountain range.

  "Jiang's family..." Ye Fan gritted his teeth.

  That night, Ye Fan did not start a fire, but only picked some wild fruit to fill his hunger, and then hid in the dense thorn bush.

  At night, the unknown beast howls echoed back and forth, exceptionally restless. The stars and moon were dim, with a gloomy atmosphere prevailing. Trees swayed in the desolate mountains and wild ridges, as if evil spirits were baring their teeth and brandishing their claws.

  Suddenly, the beast's roar in this area disappeared, and the mountain forest suddenly became quiet. Ye Fan's heart tightened instantly, his body was almost numb, and he didn't dare to move.

  A strange beast appeared in the sky at some unknown time, carrying a person as it circled around, causing all the beasts below to feel a sense of danger.

  It wasn't until the second half of the night that the knight disappeared from this area, and Ye Fan felt cold sweat all over his body. This won't do, he thought, fearing that he would be found sooner or later.

  "A head-on confrontation would be fatal, how can I get rid of him..." Ye Fan found that there was no way out and could only escape for the time being.

  In the next two days, Ye Fan kept shuttling and hiding in the mountains, several times almost being discovered by the other side, it can be said that he narrowly escaped death many times.

  By the third day, he encountered his greatest crisis. The opponent seemed to have sensed that he might be hiding in this area and launched a fierce attack, taking out a spiritual weapon, cutting through several stone cliffs, shattering the fragmented forest, destroying large areas of thorns, leaving the mountain bare.

  Ye Fan hid in the nearby swamp, not daring to move, his whole body wrapped in muddy water and rotten dry leaves. He held his breath and waited quietly for the knight to leave.

  But the opponent didn't even let the swamp go, that spiritual weapon was like a blue lightning bolt, cutting through the swampy land, and huge gullies appeared one after another, completely splitting the swamp.

  "Hmm"

  Suddenly, a blue lightning-like spiritual weapon flashed by one meter away, cutting through the rotten mud. Although it didn't cut his body, a small blue light still grazed his abdomen. Ye Fan felt a sharp pain but endured it without daring to move. If not for his super strong physique, an ordinary cultivator would have been cut in half at the waist by that terrifying blue light!

  It wasn't until half a time later that everything finally calmed down, Ye Fan gritted his teeth and struggled out of the mud pit, his abdomen bleeding profusely, dyeing the rotten mud into a piece of bright red.

  "Jiang Yi, sooner or later I will kill you, even if you are from a noble family of ancient times, no one can protect you!"

  Ye Fan felt a wave of dizziness, he had lost too much blood, his abdomen was almost completely cut open, if it wasn't for the mud blocking the outside, he would have been dead from blood loss long ago.

  He hastily found a mountain spring to clean the wound, then took off his outer garment covered with mud, tore the relatively clean clothes inside into strips, and wrapped them around his wound. However, the abdominal wound was too severe, almost visible intestines, and fresh blood couldn't be stopped at all.

  Excessive blood loss, Ye Fan felt weak all over, his hands were stained with blood, he tore open all the clean clothes and stuffed them into that terrible wound. However, the bleeding was still difficult to stop, his lower body was dyed red, and his skin looked a bit pale.

  Ye Fan covered his wound with both hands, and fresh blood kept flowing out from between his fingers. He bit his lips, trying to keep himself awake and not pass out. Silently reciting the "Tao Te Ching", he mobilized the vital energy of his whole body, attempting to stabilize his injury.

  "The Way of Heaven reduces where there is excess and adds where there is deficiency..."

  Just as he was about to faint, the deepest part of his heart suddenly remembered such a voice, hundreds of ancient words were like a gentle stream flowing in his mind, making him gradually wake up from his daze.

  Ye Fan gradually returned to calmness, his consciousness revived, no longer dazed, and at the same time, the "Tao Jing" was quietly operating, life energy constantly surging towards the wound. Finally, the rolled-up terrible wound burst out with a faint blue light, the penetrating and terrifying killing intent was forced out, life energy circulated, and the bleeding finally stopped.

  Ye Fan was weak and feeble, but he gritted his teeth and got up, swaying unsteadily as he moved his body towards the mountain forest. He had to find a secluded place to hide, his injuries were extremely severe, and he could no longer run.

  Originally, Ye Fan wanted to escape into the ancient forbidden land in these few days, only in this way could make that knight have scruples and not dare to enter deeply. However, he had no strength left, after careful consideration for a moment, he stumbled back along the original road.

  At last he halted in a spot where the knight had gone wild among the rocks, and hid behind a screen of boulders.

  This area has been searched, Yefan inferred that knight's thoughts and felt that this place would be a blind spot for a short time.

  Ye Fan neither ate nor drank, hiding in this stone peak for two days and two nights, his injuries were finally brought under control, but he was still unable to engage in intense exercise.

  For two days, that knight has been constantly circling in the sky above the deep mountains, and many forests have been completely destroyed by him.

  That night, Ye Fan crawled out of the rock crevice, picked some wild fruit, and hid in a new location. The new area had just been ravaged by that knight, with broken trees, shattered rocks, and debris all over the ground.

  "I slowly followed behind you, wherever you searched, I hid. In this perilous situation where life was not guaranteed, Ye Fan could only think carefully and cautiously avoid, choosing the knight's blind spot to hide."

  It wasn't until five or six days had passed that he gradually recovered, and it can be said that this was a kind of torture. Over the course of several days, due to the scarcity of food and the torment of his illness, he became thin and haggard.

  "If it weren't for my physique being far superior to that of an average cultivator, I'm afraid I would have been extinguished by that blue light long ago." Ye Fan gazed at the horizon and muttered to himself: "I must escape this calamity, I cannot die here."

  "Jiang's family..." Ye Fan gritted his teeth.

  He is not strong enough now, and for the time being, he may only be able to escape from that knight by risking his life to hide in the ancient forbidden land. After Ye Fan's body recovered more or less, he began to detour and move forward, wanting to get close to the ancient forbidden land.

  "I've eaten the sacred fruit, perhaps I can resist the curse there. Entering the forbidden zone of life may be an opportunity for me!"
