“So it’s very likely that you are the key that can take us away.”

Lin Mo’s eyes were filled with hope and determination. He looked at ye chen as if he was a sincere partner.

Ye chen understood what his companion meant and nodded.

The environment they were in now clearly showed that they couldn’t escape easily.

This was especially so for Lin Mo and the six-tailed ROC. Now, ye chen was a proposed target point.

They didn’t know why it had appeared in their lives, but it was like a sudden hope.

“Alright, since this thing can only point us in the right direction, we can’t delay any longer. We’ll take a short rest after eating and then set off together.”

Ye chen was very straightforward with the two of them.

Lin Mo nodded. Although his face was still expressionless, his heart was actually starting to churn with a different feeling.

Previously, she might have only been testing ye Chen’s abilities but now, she had placed all her hopes on ye chen.

After listening to Lin Mo’s retelling, Peng Fei roughly understood what he meant and was naturally very happy. He flapped his wings to express his mood, but the wind he brought up was a little stronger.

“Alright, alright. Stop flapping your wings. There are many ways to express your feelings. Don’t use this one.”

Ye chen immediately used his spiritual energy to press down on the wings and pushed them aside.

He had not fallen asleep yet. When he was resting, he flipped through the book and read it twice. He then picked up the map and looked at it. It was obvious that he took this matter very seriously.

After that, he was indeed a little sleepy, so he put the things in his brocade robe and fell asleep. When he woke up again, the outside had completely returned to calm.

The weather had also turned for the better. The dark clouds had been driven away, and there was a feeling of spring with a faint cool breeze.

Ye chen stretched his muscles and bones. He scanned his body with spiritual energy once to make sure that there were no fluctuations before he stood up.

“Let’s go. I feel that my current condition is really good. It doesn’t take much effort to go out and climb the mountain.”

Ye chen stretched lazily from left to right, as if he was doing a warm-up.

Then, he led his two companions out of the cave where they had lived for a few days and walked towards the mountain behind the forest.

The fact that this mountain was able to stand by the forest meant that it was different from the rest.

In any case, everything that existed here was reasonable and strange.

Along the way, Peng Fei told them some legends about the mountain, but they were all told by the elders of their clan.

However, the legends were very effective in scaring children. Back then, when Peng Fei was young, he had been shocked by the legends here.

Even though he and his companions had the idea of taking risks, they didn’t dare to get close to the mountain. They only dared to play around at the foot of the mountain.

After all, it was too boring in the forest. Other than finding fruits and learning his own skills, there was almost no joy.

Fortunately, he had understood a lot after growing up and did not have much of a shadow over the mountain. Not to mention, he had two companions by his side now.

Lin Mo stood between Peng Fei and ye chen, acting as the central translator. As soon as he finished listening, he turned to look at ye chen.

Along the way, he also heard about the legend of the mysterious mountain.

It turned out that this mountain was called Mt. Bewitching. According to the elders of the clan, there were many dangers on this mountain.

The place was filled with ghosts who were dead but unwilling to leave. However, they could only be sealed in this mountain and could not escape.

Legend had it that as long as someone went up the mountain, they basically never left in one piece.

The only exception was that many years ago, there was a person who seemed to have escaped alive, but he had become crazy.

The man had been running around in their forest and had been given some fruits by his friends. He had managed to survive for a while.

It was a pity that he still died in the forest, and the seniors of the ROC clan even buried him.

As for the other people who had entered the mountain, they had completely lost contact.

In short, the news that came out of this mountain had always been mysterious and terrifying.

The elders in the family had also been teaching them that they must not go up the mountain no matter what. Once they went up the mountain, they would never see their family and friends again.

Ye chen nodded as he listened to the story. He had a rough understanding of the meaning.

It seemed that the idea of entering the mountain this time was not very sloppy, but it would definitely encounter a lot of trouble, right?

Fortunately, ye chen took a look. He and his two teammates, the three of them, could almost be called a Desperado team. Moreover, they were a Desperado team that could cooperate with extremely tacit understanding.

“This time, I’ll bring the two of you up the mountain. No matter what we encounter, we’ll face it together.”

Although ye chen said so, he had a lot of trust in his companions because he knew that he was probably the only one who could take them out of this place.

Otherwise, they would have to live in this dark place forever. Who knew if such a crazy massacre would happen again?

Therefore, all three of them had to break the curse in this cave. Perhaps there were some changes in the process.

He hoped that Lin Mo would be able to become a normal person in the future and not be like how he was back then.

Just by pulling off the White cloth on his body, he had directly changed from a young appearance to a white-haired old man.

If the curse was still in his body, he would not be able to survive even if he left this place.

No one would live under a piece of cloth forever, at least not as a normal person.

The three of them gradually approached the foot of the mountain. After that, no one spoke anymore. At the same time, they all showed a very vigilant expression.

His speed did not decrease, but in reality, his entire body was in a battle-ready state.

Every possible danger that they might encounter would bring about uncertain factors, so there must be no problems in the middle.

At the very least, he had to ensure that he completed his mission and protect his body as well. He had to try his best not to get injured.

Peng Fei nodded seriously because he knew that this trip to the mountains wasn’t just to change his own fate, but also the fate of his entire clan.

As long as they could leave this place, they would no longer have to endure the endless cycle of massacres.

“Pengfei, if you’re in danger, try to shrink your body as much as possible. Don’t worry and don’t fly around, okay?”

Ye chen said to his Mount in a serious tone.

After all, even though Lin Mo and he looked like normal people, they were still much smaller than Peng Fei.

So if they were to encounter danger, it was very likely that Peng Fei would become the biggest target.

He didn’t want his good friend to end up in that kind of situation, so he had to try his best to avoid such a thing from happening.

Peng Fei was indeed the weakest among the three of them. Even if he became a Nine-Tailed ROC, he still did not have the strength to fight against the enemy.

In any case, ye chen and Lin Mo were still stronger in comparison, so sometimes, they were needed to protect Peng Fei who was following behind.

The three of them had a brief discussion about the things they needed to pay attention to, and then stepped into the intersection of the mountain together.

It was indeed similar to Peng Fei’s description. From afar, they could already feel the cold aura on the mountain. There was something wrong with it.

This mountain was even lonelier than the forest behind it. In comparison, it was like winter and spring.

The trees here had all withered, and it looked like a desolate mountain.

The sky was still bright, but as soon as they stepped onto the mountain, they felt that it had suddenly become much darker.

Ye chen did not pay much attention to the way he walked. He looked up at the sky and then down at the ground. Soon, they both realized something.

There were many skeletons of birds and other spine-like animals on the ground. It seemed that they had already been separated into different parts, with no skin or flesh left.

Only the bones remained in the soil, stubbornly unaffected by the wind, but it was only a matter of time.

If there weren’t many of them, it wouldn’t be too surprising. After all, every mountain should have such things.

However, they had seen too much time on this mountain, so much that they couldn’t ignore it!

They had only walked a few hundred meters, but they had already seen countless skeletons along the way. There were all kinds of animals.

As ye chen walked, he showed a disgusted expression.

“What is this place? How did you make so many bones that I can’t even walk properly?”

He said unhappily. As he walked, he kicked the bone beside his foot away.

Although this thing didn’t look particularly terrifying, it inexplicably gave them a sense of insecurity, not to mention that it could be seen everywhere.

When they saw the bones of these creatures, they would subconsciously think of what had happened to these animals.

Moreover, they should have suffered the same damage at the same time.

“Lower your aura. There’s a problem with the air here.”

As Lin Mo listened to ye Chen’s words, he also observed his surroundings. He did not pay much attention to the things on the ground. After all, he was floating in the air, so his perception of the air was more clear.

The faint gas floating in the air seemed to have fused with the air, but in reality, there was a slight difference.

It was very likely that if they didn’t notice this small point, it would bring them a fatal disaster.

When ye chen heard Lin Mo’s words, he was shocked and quickly shut his mouth. His breathing immediately weakened.

No matter what, he was a capable person, so it wasn’t difficult for him to use this bit of spiritual energy to breathe.

On the other hand, the Nine-Tailed ROC was a little hesitant. After hearing Lin Mo’s words, it also wanted to hold its breath, but it could not control its expression. It even looked a little funny.

Lin Mo flapped his wings and explained to him in the bird language,

He said that he was standing higher, so he was further away from the gas and didn’t need to be so serious.

He just needed to breathe slowly and do as little breathing as possible.

Peng Fei heaved a sigh of relief when he found out. Thus, they carefully walked up the mountain path in this manner, looking for the hidden cave in the mountain.

“I think this map is just like that piece of trash. Once I get up the mountain, I can’t even figure out the way. How am I supposed to find the cave? the map is also in a mess!”

Ye chen threw the book in his hand to the side and sat on the rock, feeling indignant.

Logically speaking, they should be halfway up the mountain by now, but they had not seen the cave marked on the book and the map.

Lin Mo, on the other hand, had always been a steady player. He did not pay any attention to ye chen when he saw him like this. Instead, he began to observe the surrounding terrain.

It was still bright today, so everything could be seen clearly. Even if it was faint and a little blurry, it would not affect much.

At this moment, a gust of evil wind blew in from somewhere, enveloping them like a black net. In an instant, the few of them felt a little breathless.

Ye chen was slightly shocked and quickly wrapped his body with his spiritual energy, protecting the two of them at the same time.

The evil wind blew for about fifteen minutes before it finally stopped. Ye chen hurriedly took a deep breath.

“What was that just now? I felt like I was tied up tightly. Fortunately, I reacted quickly, otherwise, I don’t know what would have happened!”

Ye chen shook his head hard to shake his consciousness back.

He didn’t want to become a lunatic like that legendary person and run down the mountain. That would be a huge loss.

Sometimes, the enemy that they faced head-on was not scary, but the danger mixed in with the wind was even more creepy.

In any case, after the wind just now, ye chen and his two companions did not intend to continue staying here.

They decided to continue searching. If they could find the cave as soon as possible, they might be able to avoid some of the danger.

Of course, no one could guarantee that they would not encounter greater difficulties.

After aimlessly searching for a while, they stopped again. The Nine-Tailed ROC suddenly looked around warily, as if it had discovered something.

Then, there was another round of bird language that ye chen could not understand.

“Pengfei said that he found this cave, but it might be hidden behind this kind of rock.”

Lin Mo explained as he stood by the side. At the same time, he was a little surprised to see the stones that were placed in an irregular manner.

When ye chen heard this, he immediately looked over. However, these stones looked almost the same. There were big and small stones everywhere. How could he distinguish them?
