Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 622 Valley Of The Lost.



Shi Lang bade farewell to the group and left the place. He was not in a hurry now. Almost all his doubts had been clarified. Even if the target did not come to the Valley of the Lost, he would still know who this guy was. Shi Lang would infiltrate the Lost Bird Sect if needed. 

His resolve was firm as he rode the back of his Lightning Mane horse. The terran did not fly all around the sky because he still had the chance to consolidate his cultivation realm while riding the horse. He was at the initial level of the Immortal Lord realm. He needed to strengthen himself and had little time to show off needlessly. 

Shi Lang rode quickly through the woods and the dirt paths. The lightning leopard was sitting on the head of the black horse, almost completely shrouded in the thick black mane. The terran closed his eyes and legs folded in the lotus position. 

After a day, he entered the city, and then, after replenishing his supplies, he moved through the wilderness of the Yandou Province, heading straight to the north. The test of the head hunters was not hard but tricky. There were many chances that the applicant might fail. If the target they were looking for found the information, they might not turn up if someone was looking for them. 

However, Shi Lang had taken a calculated risk by telling those cultivators from the Seven Birds sect about this. When he was discussing with them about the tattoos, he had already noticed that none of these people had a swallow tattoo, and he was also aware of the other two forces that used birds to symbolize themselves. 

So, after he was done asking about the swallow tattoo, he did ask about the third force in the region. He did not probe deep into the situation or knowledge, or the people might think too much and spill the beans. Once the beans were spilled, they might be too much to sort out. 

On the way to the north, Shi Lang met many people but did not ask them about the tattoos. He only asked for the path correction leading to the Valley Of The Lost. He made sure to make a brief stop in every city. This made the enemy lower their guard and consider him a simple traveler seeking herbs to cure ailments. 

The terran took three days to reach the valley of the lost. He narrowed his gaze as he stood at the entrance of the valley. Shi Lang sighed, jumped off the horse, and said, “Hei Lei, you can return to the Inheritance palace and continue your training.” 

The horse gazed at him pleadingly, and Shi Lang sighed, “You know it is for your betterment. Do you fear pain? When you grow strong, people will bow to you. Do you not wish to be revered by the masses?” 

His simple bullshit surprised Hei Lei, and then he thought about the little cat resting on the Terran’s shoulder. He wanted to be at such leisure and nodded. Shi Lang smiled and gently patted his neck before shoving the big guy into a portal. 

The terran sighed and said, “I can only pray for him.” 

The little cat nodded humanely, and the two moved towards the valley’s depth. This place was colder than the rest of the Yanduo Province. It was not because of the mountainous region around it but because of the Yun energy in the area. 

Shi Lang said in a low voice, “Say, Xiao Hu, what do you think is happening in this place?” 

Lei Hu was also observing the surroundings and shook his head. He was a spirit beast, and they were much more sensitive to the change in the surrounding spiritual energies. Yet, it did not know what was causing the Yin energy to gather here. As they moved deeper into the valley, the desolation amplified. 

Shi Lang scanned the surroundings and found that only the herbs that consumed Yin energy were growing in abundance. He frowned when suddenly, Lei Hu growled. He looked at the cat, and the spirit beast jumped off his shoulder before assuming his original form. Shi Lang watched as the beast came to a spot and scratched the stone with his claws. 

The terran was surprised. He had been to this place a few minutes ago, and now it seemed he was moving in circles. He closed his eyes, and his brain moved. Shi Lang did not react for a long time, then he opened his eyes and said, “Lei Hu, come here.” 

The lightning leopard was confused but walked closer to Shi Lang, who said, “Do not move half an inch from this place.” 

The Terran’s eyes flickered with blue lightning as he looked around. Shi Lang took a spear from his space ring and then hurled it in one direction. The spear hit a tree growing on the hillside and pierced through the tree trunk. The next moment, the void wrapped. Shi Lang sighed and said, “Come, we will move deeper.” 

Lei Hu followed Shi Lang very closely. They had been trapped in a natural array. The terran waved his hand, and the spear dislodged from the tree trunk and landed back in his hand. The beast raised its head to look ahead and growled.  𝒐𝗏𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t

Shi Lang nodded. He sensed the presence of a gaze locked to his back. He said, “It is neither a human nor a beast. I wonder if it is a ghost.” 

He said that because he could not spot any living being on the sensory map. This was the first time Shi Lang had come in contact with a spirit blur on his map. He wanted to discover more, but since he did not know much about this phenomenon, he did not wish to dwell on the unknown. 

He moved forward, but again, he was trapped inside a natural formation. Using his sensory abilities, he once again located the node of the natural formation and destroyed it. However, the feeling of being watched grew stronger, and he felt something crawling under his skin. He spotted a figure standing before him when he was about to release a lightning attack. This shocked Shi Lang and he screamed, “Arrrhhhh!!”
