Chapter 452: Entering the Heavenly Eye Mountain Range! The Route!

High above the edge of the Heavenly Eye Mountain Range, Xiao Yixian and her group watched as the majority of the crowd entered the mountain range. Instead of rushing in, they quietly retreated a short distance before descending to the ground.

Unbeknownst to them, two elderly figures in the distant sky had been observing their conversation. These two elders, who had accompanied Jiang Feng, exuded the aura of five-star Dou Venerates.

The Wind Thunder Pavilion had kept the incident involving Elder Liu, Han Yue, and Gu He tightly under wraps, issuing strict orders to disciples not to spread the news. However, the details of the event and specific characteristics of Gu He, Han Yue, and her demon beast had been discreetly shared with the elder ranks.

Based on these traits, the two elders immediately recognized Han Yue as the person from that encounter. Yet, out of fear of the mysterious figure backing her, they dared not approach or initiate a conversation. For now, they quietly took note of Xiao Yixian, Nalan Yanran, and Xiao Yin's appearances.

After Xiao Yixian's group left, the thinner of the two elders narrowed his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within, and spoke in a hoarse voice to his companion:

"Old Yan, did you notice that young woman's speed? Her strength is at least on par with ours!"

"With such speed, that girl is undoubtedly at the Dou Venerate level," the other elder nodded in agreement.

Although Xiao Yixian had kept her aura concealed, her displayed speed revealed enough to the two elders.

"I wonder which faction they belong to, producing such young and powerful individuals... The talent shown by that lead woman far surpasses even Miss Feng from the Pavilion Master's personal tutelage."

"I think they're likely not from a major faction but rather disciples trained by some reclusive expert," Elder Yan speculated.

After Elder Liu’s exaggerated recounting of his encounter with Gu He and Han Yue upon his return, the Wind Thunder Pavilion’s Pavilion Master, Lei Zun, had been left deeply wary. Elder Liu’s dramatic report served both to protect him from punishment and save face, prompting Lei Zun to investigate Gu He’s background quietly.

Now, the scene witnessed by the two elders provided further grounds for them to seek merit by reporting to Lei Zun.

Xiao Yixian and her group halted after moving out of sight of those lingering outside the mountain range.

By this point, the massive purple demon vulture had transformed into its human form, appearing as a three-year-old girl with a doll-like, porcelain complexion. Xiao Yin was immediately smitten, joyfully holding the tiny hands of the childlike demon beast.

Despite being two major realms lower in strength than Xiao Yin, the transformed purple demon vulture behaved with utmost obedience, earning Xiao Yin’s affection. Imitating Han Yue, Xiao Yin picked up the small creature and held her lovingly.

Initially, Han Yue had intended for the purple demon vulture to remain outside and wait, but Xiao Yin now insisted on bringing her along.

“Big Sister Xian, only the two of us entering would cause dramatic fluctuations in the energy tides here. All I need to do is suppress your aura—it’s no trouble at all!” Xiao Yin said confidently, hugging the small demon vulture while speaking in her childlike voice.

“Hmm, Xiao Yin, you’re amazing!” Xiao Yixian replied, patting Xiao Yin’s head with a smile.

“Then let’s head out now!” Xiao Yin said eagerly.

“Alright!”

As Xiao Yin finished speaking, the others nodded in unison.

A surge of immense spatial energy erupted from Xiao Yin’s body, strands of silver energy forming a massive protective barrier around the group.

Simultaneously, a pitch-black spatial rift appeared in mid-air. Xiao Yin, holding the small purple demon vulture, stepped confidently into the void. The others, guided by Xiao Yixian and Xiao Yin, followed closely into the spatial rift, entering the mysterious space beyond.

In the central region of the Heavenly Eye Mountain Range, amidst the dense fog shrouding the trees, a pitch-black spatial rift silently appeared. Moments later, Xiao Yixian and her group stepped out from the void.

Since they didn’t have a precise map, Xiao Yin didn’t transport them directly to the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool. Instead, they exited the void halfway to their destination.

Even so, they were far ahead of most of the others who had entered the mountain range earlier, who would need at least another hour or two to catch up.

“The demon beasts here are much stronger and more numerous than those in the mountain range dominated by the Cang Wolf King,” Xiao Yixian remarked as she detected the presence of numerous sixth-tier demon beasts.

Hearing this, Han Yue quickly responded, “Once Ah Zi fully releases her aura, those ordinary demon beasts will think twice before approaching.”

Xiao Yin patted the small purple demon vulture in her arms and praised, “Ah Zi is so amazing!”

With that, Xiao Yin withdrew the silver energy surrounding the purple demon vulture, Han Yue, and Nalan Yanran, allowing their auras to be exposed. However, she kept the silver energy intact around Xiao Yixian to shield her presence.

As Han Yue had predicted, the moment the purple demon vulture's aura spread, the nearby beast roars diminished significantly. Many fifth-tier demon beasts quickly retreated, and even the sixth-tier demon beasts appeared hesitant to approach this unfamiliar but intimidating presence.

“Xian’er, which way should we go next?” Nalan Yanran asked. Since leaving the Jia Ma Empire for the Central Plains, she had been largely reliant on Xiao Yixian for decisions. Now, without a clear route and with the dense fog obscuring their vision, finding the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool seemed impossible without guidance.

Xiao Yixian spread her hands and smiled wryly. “Yanran, I’m not sure at the moment either.”

With her aura temporarily concealed by Xiao Yin, her sensory abilities had been significantly reduced.

Xiao Yin was in a similar situation. Her immense energy, if fully released, would undoubtedly trigger massive energy tides. While she wasn’t concerned about the tides themselves, she was cautious about the safety of Nalan Yanran and the others, so she had partially sealed her perception of the surroundings.

As the group found themselves at a bit of a loss, Han Yue spoke up thoughtfully, “Senior Sister, while I don’t know the exact location of the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool, it should be at the heart of the mountain range. To form the extraordinary pool water, it would require an immense concentration of pure energy. In other words, the Blood Pool should be in the area with the densest and most abundant energy. If we can pinpoint the place with the strongest energy fluctuations and head there directly, we should be on the right track.”
