Chapter 1710

"Not good, this is definitely a fierce bird no less powerful than the Sea-Suppressing Ape. Net, let's go quickly; staying here is not safe." Upon seeing this scene, Liu Shui'er's jade face changed, and without hesitation, she pinched a spell with both hands, transforming into a blue streak of light and breaking through the air.

Without needing the woman to remind them, Han Li and Shi Kun also knew that once two ancient fierce creatures began to fight, both the power and the range of impact would be far beyond the mere sound waves from before.

The two followed the cloaked woman closely, transforming into two other streaks of light and flashing toward the horizon.

The three streaks of light vanished at the edge of the horizon.

Just moments after the three left their original location, a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering loud noise came from the distant seaside.

Following this, the sounds of thunder and fierce winds intertwined, and the shocking rumbling sound instantly drowned out the roars of the Sea-Suppressing Ape and the long cries of the unknown giant bird.

Almost at the same time, a thousand-foot-tall giant wave surged from the seaside, completely submerging the spot where Han Li and the other two had originally stood in just a few moments.

At this time, Han Li and the other two had already escaped hundreds of miles away in one breath, then changed direction, making a huge circle, and flew back toward the land.

"This Guanghan World is truly as rumored, with so many ancient fierce beasts that have long been extinct in our Spirit World. If it's like this all the way, let alone finding the ruins and restrictions, we'll probably lose our lives halfway there." After the three finally flew safely onto land, Shi Kun breathed a sigh of relief but muttered in his escape light.

Although his voice was not loud, Han Li and Liu Shui'er heard it clearly with their cultivation.

"Although this world has some ancient fierce beasts, they are not so numerous that they can be seen everywhere. It's likely we were just unlucky and stumbled into a fight between two fierce beasts." Liu Shui'er shook her head and said.

"Unlucky? But this is truly not a very good start." Shi Kun shrugged his shoulders, appearing unconvinced.

"We cultivators are originally existences that defy the heavens. One cannot ignore omens of good or bad luck, but one shouldn't take them entirely to heart either." Liu Shui'er said with a light laugh.

"Hehe! I hope so." Shi Kun chuckled.

Seeing the big man's noncommittal attitude, Liu Shui'er did not intend to persuade him further, but instead turned her head to Han Li and said:

"Brother Han, now we need to determine our location in the Spirit World. I ask Brother Han to assist the two of us."

After the previous incident, Liu Shui'er was clearly a bit more polite to Han Li.

"That is easy to do." Han Li was also curious about how the two would cast their spell and nodded without hesitation.

Subsequently, he transformed into a streak of green light and shot into the sky, flying over a hundred feet higher before converging his light and reappearing.

With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he covered and monitored a radius of several dozen miles.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, let us begin as well." Liu Shui'er nodded with satisfaction and said to Shi Kun.

"Hehe, I, Shi, have long been prepared." Shi Kun replied without hesitation.

Thus, Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun also suddenly split left and right, shooting out to both sides. After a few flashes, their escape lights stopped a few dozen feet away.

The two and Han Li formed a huge triangle.

Unlike Han Li, the cloaked woman and Shi Kun each shook their sleeves into the void.

Immediately, a white disc and a yellow scroll flew out from their hands simultaneously.

Liu Shui'er and her companion pinched spells with one hand, chanting incantations.

The disc shook, expanding more than ten times in size, transforming into something as huge as a bright moon.

The yellow scroll slowly unfurled, revealing a hazy yellow light within, and something seemed to be hidden inside the scroll.

Then, with a roll of the yellow light, the entire scroll suddenly vanished.

The next moment, yellow light spots appeared in the void within a hundred-foot radius, and then all the light spots shone brightly, merging into one and transforming into a yellow light curtain that covered the sky and sun.

Seeing this, Shi Kun let out a low shout and pointed at the bright moon in the void.

The bright moon's clear light flowed, and with a "whoosh," it submerged into the yellow light curtain.

The incantations from Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun suddenly grew louder.

A strange situation occurred.

A buzzing sound erupted from the yellow light curtain, and mountains, rivers, and streams appeared densely, looking only the size of beans, yet each mountain peak was vivid and lifelike, and one could tell at a glance that they were distinct.

And these miniature scenes were all transformed into small squares about a foot in size; their profound nature was truly beyond words.

"This is?" Han Li, looking down from above, naturally saw the entire light curtain clearly. He narrowed his eyes and asked a question.

"This Guanghan Map was refined by my master and Senior Duan, who collected the remnant maps left by predecessors who entered the Guanghan World throughout the ages and summarized them. Although I dare not say it covers the entire Guanghan World, it records seven or eight out of ten of its regions." Liu Shui'er said in a melodious voice.

"However, whether we are truly in the area shown on the map must be tested by casting a spell. If we are not in one of them, we might be in some trouble." Shi Kun also said, then pointed his hand once more into the void within the light curtain.

Immediately, the entire map shone brightly, but under the hazy yellow light, a white light the size of an egg suddenly emerged from a corner of the map, then hovered a foot above a certain square, remaining motionless.

"Found it, we are actually on the edge of the Ten Thousand Bird Ridge. This means the sea area we just left is actually the Nine Fierce Seas." As soon as Liu Shui'er saw the area illuminated by the white light ball, her voice trembled slightly.

"Ten Thousand Bird Ridge, Eight Fierce Seas! We are actually in this region." Shi Kun's expression also changed drastically.

Han Li, who was curiously examining the white light ball below from the air, gasped upon hearing this.

Since they were prepared to enter the Guanghan World, they naturally read many classics about famous dangerous areas in the Guanghan World beforehand, so as not to accidentally enter them and lose their lives without knowing.

Ten Thousand Bird Ridge and Eight Fierce Seas were precisely two of the more famous regions among them.

As the name suggests, the Eight Fierce Seas naturally harbor eight legendary ancient fierce beasts. And Ten Thousand Bird Ridge is home to tens of thousands of various spirit birds, including three ancient fierce birds whose reputation is no less than that of the Sea-Suppressing Ape.

And the two regions are adjacent to each other; if an alien race from the Thunder Continent accidentally enters, and their luck is bad, the outcome can be imagined.

At this, not only did Han Li and Shi Kun frown, but even Liu Shui'er stared at the huge light curtain, unable to speak for a while.

"I do not want to force my way through Ten Thousand Bird Ridge. Not to mention the three ancient fierce birds inside, even if we were slightly discovered by other spirit birds, we would have no place to be buried." Shi Kun opened his mouth with a gloomy expression.

"Ten Thousand Bird Ridge is indeed extremely dangerous. Although we escaped safely from the Eight Fierce Seas, it does not mean we will have such good luck in Ten Thousand Bird Ridge. It is better to bypass Ten Thousand Bird Ridge." Han Li's eyes flashed, also stating his position.

"That is the only way." Liu Shui'er sighed lightly, and after scanning Han Li and Shi Kun's faces, she had to nod in agreement.

Seeing that Liu Shui'er also agreed with Han Li's opinion, Shi Kun's expression looked better, but after scanning the huge light curtain again, his furrowed brows did not relax immediately.

"The regions adjacent to the two sides of Ten Thousand Bird Ridge are the Blue Sun Desert and the Dark Beast Forest. There is no need to talk about the Blue Sun Desert; for those of us who have not advanced to the Saint Clan, it is a more terrifying place than Ten Thousand Bird Ridge. According to the classics, we can withstand the strange sunlight there for at most half a day before we turn into ashes and perish. And the Dark Beast Forest is said to be home to the Dark Beast clan, which has long been extinct in the Spirit World. At night, the strength of the Dark Beasts can increase several times, which is also quite dangerous. But we can only choose this region." Liu Shui'er pointed to the light curtain and said slowly.

"No. Although there are very few descriptions of Dark Beasts in the classics, one can see that this kind of alien beast is very difficult to provoke. Entering the Dark Beast Forest is still too dangerous. It is better to continue to bypass this region." Shi Kun opposed repeatedly upon hearing this.

"Bypass, how to bypass? The ruins of the restriction are originally extremely far from us. Even if we travel at full speed without any obstacles, it will take at least three or four months. If we encounter other obstacles on the way, the time will at least double. And just bypassing Ten Thousand Bird Ridge is estimated to take half a month, and bypassing the Dark Beast Forest, which is larger in area, will take at least nearly two months. In addition, we have to set aside one or two months to break through our own bottlenecks. In this way, how can we arrive in time to break the restriction?" This time, Liu Shui'er did not retreat, saying coldly.

Upon hearing Liu Shui'er say this, Shi Kun's expression moved, revealing a look of hesitation.

"Although the Dark Beast Forest is somewhat strange and dangerous, it is not that no one has passed through it before. Regardless, through the classics, we also know some means to deal with Dark Beasts, which should give us a better chance of passing than those before us. Moreover, if we go back empty-handed this time, is Fellow Daoist Shi not afraid of Senior Duan's severe punishment?" Liu Shui'er stared at Shi Kun, her eyes icy.

Shi Kun's face was full of hesitation, but after a moment, he suddenly raised his head and asked Han Li in the air:

"Brother Han, do you have any suggestions?"

"I, Han, was invited by the two seniors to assist you two this time and have already received considerable benefits. As long as you two fellow Daoists have a unified opinion and there is no disagreement, and the place we are going is not a place of certain death, it does not matter to me." Han Li's eyes flashed, and he replied calmly.

"Alright. Since neither Brother Han nor Fellow Daoist Liu fears the Dark Beast Forest, why shouldn't I, Shi, go and see those legendary Dark Beasts?" Shi Kun laughed loudly after thinking carefully for a while and agreed.
