C227

After passing through the first trial, he was still two-thirds of the way to the summit. Yao Yuan didn't think too much and directly walked towards the top of the mountain.

"Turn around from the road in front and we'll be able to meet up with the main force."

Yao Yuan looked at the map, and after determining his position, he said to Miao Ling.

She herself did not say what Miao Ling had experienced in the house earlier, so it was not good for her to ask too many questions. She just pretended that she did not know anything, and told Miao Ling to follow closely behind her.

On this road, although they could still climb to the summit, it was hard to say how much danger they would encounter. It was still relatively good to be able to walk on the path of others.

This was the conclusion Yao Yuan came up with after going through the Yin Yang Phenomenon Formation.

It was only a coincidence before, but if he didn't have this kind of luck in the future when he encountered such a dangerous situation, he probably wouldn't be able to walk out of it for the rest of his life, let alone do anything else.

After synthesizing many aspects, Yao Yuan finally made a decision.

Miao Ling naturally had no objections, since she had walked in and listened to everything Yao Yuan said, at least the latter would definitely not put him in a dangerous situation, and on this point, Miao Ling was still quite at ease.

After walking a few steps, Yao Yuan was stopped by a small forest in front of him. The small forest that appeared halfway up the mountain still made people feel that it was a little strange.

Yao Yuan carefully looked inside, and in the end decided to go in alone to see what was so mysterious about it.

After all, for anything that appeared in this place, Yao Yuan would gain intelligence from every mistake and would definitely not let his guard down again.

Allowing Miao Ling to stay here by herself and stay in peace, Yao Yuan immediately put down his backpack and slowly walked in. There weren't many trees in the small forest, and it was much clearer than he had imagined.

The forest was not big, and with a glance, Yao Yuan felt that he could see through them. Looking straight ahead, which was the exit, Yao Yuan felt a lot more at ease.

However, the longer he stayed in the forest, the more Yao Yuan felt that the atmosphere in front of him was a little strange.

No matter what, he should at least get one of them, but now …

The more Yao Yuan thought about it, the more he started to panic. There really was no other way, Yao Yuan hurriedly prepared to walk out from inside, to see if there were similar paths outside the forest that he could take.

After all, after passing through this forest, Yao Yuan could then try to switch from the back of the Mount Li to the front.

But just at this moment, Yao Yuan suddenly felt a wave of hot air appear beside his ear, as if... His breathing was ordinary.

Yao Yuan knew clearly in his heart that this might be the secret hidden in this forest.

He did not dare to turn his head, as he was afraid that he would see something that he should not have. The things in the Mount Li were all sorts of strange, even though he had a lot of confidence in himself, in this place, Yao Yuan had always been an existence which was like a little brother.

Yao Yuan was well aware of the level of his own strength, and after hesitating for a long time, he still decided to continue walking forward.

"Halt."

A voice suddenly came from behind him.

At least, what appeared in this forest was not the wild beast that he had imagined. If it was a human, then it might very well be someone from the Cultivation Realm, and would not do anything to him.

Yao Yuan thought like this and turned his head back, but never thought that the thing he saw when he turned his head would cause him to be extremely shocked.

~ Is this a Leopard?

Yao Yuan's heart once again became flustered.

When he saw the Leopard, Yao Yuan subconsciously thought that he had heard wrongly. Maybe this Leopard was just another person's pet, so he couldn't help but look behind him.

But after looking for a long time, there was only one Leopard around Yao Yuan.

"There's no need to look, I'm the only one here."

The Leopard's eyes were staring straight at Yao Yuan, its mouth constantly moving.

Yao Yuan had actually thought of this matter before, but he was unable to accept such a thing in such a short amount of time, so he could only choose to temporarily leave. However, the more it was like this, the more obvious the fear in his heart was.

"You, you?"

Yao Yuan said it many times.

The Leopard didn't seem to mind Yao Yuan's surprised expression. It looked at Yao Yuan and asked: "What, you don't believe me?"

When Miao Ling was introducing the Mount Li to him before, Yao Yuan still didn't really believe that such a strange beast would appear in a place like the Mount Li, but now, seeing a talking animal for the first time in his life.

Had he really come to this mythical story?

Yao Yuan was actually very clear in his heart. If he really met a Spiritual Beast that could speak like the one in the novels, the level of his strength would definitely far surpass his own. Not to mention escaping, he would even feel a little choked if he could endure past a round.

At this time, the only thing Yao Yuan could do was to remain calm.

Facing the talking Leopard he had never seen before, Yao Yuan had no choice but to force a smile and say: "Was it really you?"

Previously, when he was speaking, the Leopard's voice belonged to the low and deep voice of a middle-aged man. But now, it sounded more like the innocent voice of a child.

It was because of this that Yao Yuan felt that it was a little mystical, and was unable to figure out what exactly this Leopard was trying to do.

"That's me, I'm the only one in the whole forest. Why, I'm also very curious about you."

Hearing the Leopard say that, and not sensing any threat from his body, Yao Yuan momentarily put down his guard. He looked at the Leopard and asked: "How old are you?"

"Me? "I'm only four years old, but after I was born, my parents disappeared. After all these years, I grew up here by myself."

It was obviously a Leopard, but in the end, it claimed that it was a human. This scene made Yao Yuan feel that it was rather interesting, so he laughed and said: "Then after all these years, are you alone?"

"That's right. Speaking of it, this is the first time I've met you. Although you don't look the same as me, you're still quite familiar with me. Right, this kind of familiar feeling."

As the Leopard spoke, it moved closer to Yao Yuan and took a deep whiff.

"It can't be. You even smelled this. When did you learn how to speak? It can't be that you learned it as soon as you were born, right?"

There were still many secrets on the Leopard. Yao Yuan instantly felt very curious and asked one after another.
