Chapter 1373: Chapter 1373

At the same time, in a certain place in the Dark Forest.

"Sect Leader, I have received news that the young man who killed the Young Sect Master has also entered the Dark Forest!"

A member of the Wuji Sect stepped forward and said to Chu Xiong.

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiong's body trembled suddenly, and he immediately asked.

"It should be true. Several factions have seen him. It shouldn't be mistaken!"

The person pondered and said.

Hearing this, Chu Xiong did not immediately decide on a course of action but began to think deeply.

Ever since losing a Condensation Pill Realm expert last time, Chu Xiong has been extremely wary of this young man!

So, during this period, he has not taken further action, as he was hesitating and contemplating!

However, he finally made up his mind to personally lead a team to Yandu to deal with this young man!

No matter what, he could not allow this young man to continue living in this world!

But just as he was about to set off for Yandu, news came of a mysterious change in the Dark Forest, so he came here first, planning to deal with this matter after returning!

Unexpectedly, this brat actually came to the Dark Forest as well!

The man looked to Chu Xiong, actually inquiring about his intentions.

"The mysterious changes in the Dark Forest, with the hidden Formation activating, are rare and unusual. We must act quickly!"

Chu Xiong pondered for a moment and said:

"Let's put the matter of the young man aside for now. If he's still in the Dark Forest when we return, we'll conveniently deal with him then. If not, we'll just make a trip to Yandu! Either way, he won't escape!"

In a flash, another half a day passed, and Su Chen was still walking through the Dark Forest, naturally having gained quite a bit!

He didn't pay much attention to the encounter with that Young Master Feng earlier, it was just a small episode!

During this time, he encountered, for the first time, a fourth rank Demon Beast, a Black Wind Mad Wolf!

Su Chen, of course, successfully dealt with the Black Wind Mad Wolf and took its inner core!

However, what puzzled him was that the Black Wind Mad Wolf's strength didn't seem to be much!

By 'not much' he meant it was weaker than Su Chen expected, though still far beyond a third rank Demon Beast!

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded beside him, seemingly with some surprise!

Su Chen turned his head to look, a smile immediately appearing on his face as he walked over:

It was Yuan Fei, whom he had fought against while in the Lishan Sect.

Although there was a bit of unpleasantness during their skirmish, it quickly dissipated afterwards.

At this time, another middle-aged man about the same age as Yuan Fei, saw him and greeted with a smile.

Su Chen also nodded in acknowledgment.

Subsequently, the young disciples behind Yuan Fei also greeted Su Chen as Mr. Su.

Others might not know, but they knew how terrifying this young man was, even managing to get the upper hand against Li Ting!

"By the way, where is Elder Li and Uncle Li?"

Su Chen curiously asked.

He had heard that the Elder, including Li Ting, had also come, which left him quite surprised!

Why was it that the Lishan Sect, like other factions, had none of their top experts present?

"Oh, they're not here."

Yuan Fei chuckled and replied.

"Then where are they?"

Since Yuan Fei wasn't an outsider, Su Chen asked his question directly:

"Right, Uncle Yuan, when Uncle Li contacted me earlier, he mentioned that the top experts from various sects and families had come, yet after walking for more than a day, I haven't seen any?"

"Also, Uncle Li mentioned there were quite a few High Rank Demon Beasts around, why haven't I seen any? I've only encountered a fourth rank Demon Beast so far?"

"You wouldn't know this."

Yuan Fei, hearing this, smiled and said:

"Actually, the real High Rank Demon Beasts aren't here. Let me explain to you slowly, and you'll understand."

After a while, having listened to Yuan Fei's explanation, Su Chen finally understood what was going on!

It turned out that the area where the High Rank Demon Beasts appeared was not here, and those factions' top experts weren't here either!

Previously, no one knew that at the edge of the Dark Forest, there was a hidden Formation, leading to another forest!

This time, with the changes, the Formation suddenly lost its power and was thus discovered!

Although that forest was not particularly large, the true High Rank Demon Beasts resided there!

With the deactivation of the Formation, it connected with the previously known Dark Forest!

Of course, that newly discovered forest is considered part of the Dark Forest too!

The deactivation of the Formation caused many third rank Demon Beasts and some weaker fourth rank Demon Beasts to flee!

Because it was too dangerous for them there!

Previously, they had no way to escape as the Formation covered them!

But now, with it open, they naturally fled!

Nonetheless, most of the fourth rank or above Demon Beasts remained there!

At this time, the top experts from those sects or families are all gathered there!

As the hidden Formation activated, these factions were aware of its peculiarity and had come to investigate!

As for the young disciples, unless they had reached the Kaiyuan Late Stage and were true geniuses, they accompanied the top experts for experience and training, while others stayed in the previous area!

Although the so-called top ten young experts ranking was very overblown, not even top-tier powers were that exaggeratedly strong!

Even within the top-tier powers, only a few young disciples reached the Kaiyuan Late Stage, or even higher!

Now, the Dark Forest is unlike before; previously, encountering a third rank Demon Beast was very unlikely, but now it's much more common, and occasionally even fourth rank ones appear!

Thus, those factions have arranged for at least two Kaiyuan Realm Perfection, and even one or two in Great Perfection, to accompany those disciples!

This way, it's much safer!

If they encounter a second rank Demon Beast, the disciples can handle it, given that those present are the excellent ones!

If they encounter a weak third rank, they can be tried on for their training. If it's stronger, the experts will take action!

Regarding fourth rank ones, the likelihood is small, and even then, it's usually the weaker ones that escaped, so they can manage!

After all, they need to concentrate their true top experts in the area where the Formation just activated!

They not only have to face possible powerful Demon Beasts, but if there are treasures, they must also deal with disputes among factions!

If the treasure's level and value are high enough, then things like reputation don't matter much... Thɪs chapter is updated by Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
