In front of the Thousand Caves Mountain, Dugu Yifeng was standing there with Ling Jianji and Ling Wuchen behind him.

After dealing with the remaining Thousand-Legged Jade Scorpion, he simply cleaned up the battlefield. Then, Dugu Yifeng led his guards and rushed back to the Thousand Cave Mountain.

Although they had heard of some strange beasts in the Twin Emperor Mountain Range, they had never heard of a beast herd. Just now, Dugu Yifeng and the others had actually encountered a Nine-Headed Thousand Feet Green Scorpion. If there wasn't something fishy inside, no one would have believed it.

Just now, they had been standing in the middle of the Twin Emperor Mountain Range. Generally speaking, the appearance of a beast was extremely rare, much more so than the appearance of a group of beasts in succession.

There was only one possibility for such a situation to occur. These strange beasts were attracted here by humans …

As for who had lured this strange beast here, it was obvious after thinking for a bit – the Fierce Demon Stronghold!

However, according to Dugu Yifeng and the others' understanding of the Fierce Demon Stronghold's strength, there was no one in the Fierce Demon Stronghold that could accomplish such a feat.

To safely enter and leave the depths of the Twin Emperor Mountain Range without being discovered, there was still a possibility that the Second Leader of the Fierce Demon Stronghold might be able to do so. To him, that was something impossible.

However, the beast still appeared. After some thought, Dugu Yifeng came up with a guess.

"Yifeng, what did you think of?" Ling Wuchen asked. Previously, Dugu Yifeng had gone straight to this place after cleaning up the battlefield. It was obvious that he had discovered something. Ling Jianjue was also looking at him, waiting for him to speak.

"Don't ask too much, enter the cave!" Dugu Yifeng faintly smiled and without saying anything further, he directly instructed them. After that, he tiptoed and climbed up the cliff. With a few more attempts, he easily jumped up to the entrance of the cave.

A moment later, Dugu Yifeng, Ling Jianjue, and the others were all standing at the highest point of the Thousand Cave Mountain, holding torches in their hands.

This place was the cave cliff at the peak of the Thousand Caves Mountain. It was also the largest cave cliff.

"Come on, let's go in and take a look," Dugu Yifeng ordered. "The lighting inside the cave isn't good. Be careful."

Dugu Yifeng was the first to walk into the cave. Behind him were several tens of guards. These guards were all warriors of the seventh step or above. Their strength was extraordinary. As for those who had low cultivation, they were left at the bottom of the cliff by Dugu Yifeng.

After walking for a long time, Dugu Yifeng and the others finally stopped. That was because up until now, they had gone quite deep into the Thousand Cave Mountain. Now, they had finally met the first fork in the road.

"Yifeng, which way should we go?" Ling Wuchen asked. Dugu Yifeng had a calm expression on his face as he looked towards Ling Jianjue. Ling Jianjue's expression did not change. However, he seemed to have some question that he was about to ask, but he held it in.

With a faint smile, Dugu Yifeng revealed a smile, "Big Brother Jianxue, do you have any doubts about what I'm doing?"

"Yes!" Ling Jianjue replied. Hearing what Dugu Yifeng said, Ling Wu Chen also turned to look at him.

After a moment of silence, Dugu Yifeng opened his mouth, "This place, is most likely the place where the Fierce Demon Stronghold is hidden!"

"That Second Leader of the Fierce Demon Stronghold is really bold and reckless. However, I really admire him a little!"

"Earlier, when we chased them all the way here, the secret message disappeared, and then we discovered the corpse of the inmate. "After that, we were attacked by a group of Thousand Feet Green Scorpion. If it were not for the fact that our forces were strong, I'm afraid we would have died here."

If we were to go according to Chang Xian, we would only think that we should be killed here. Afterwards, the bandits from the Evil Devil Stronghold escaped to the depths of the Twin Emperor Mountain Range and even lured a group of Thousand Legged Green Scorpion to attack us. I'm afraid that no one would think that they did not enter the depths of the Twin Emperor Mountain Range.

"Hide here! This is the Twin Emperor Mountain Range's most obvious mountain range. Adding the fame of the Thousand Cave Mountain outside, no one would even think of the cave at the highest point on the mountain peak! "

"Not to mention, it's impossible for them to lure a group of Thousand Legged Green Scorpion beasts out from the depths of the Twin Emperor Mountain Range. And there is only one place nearby where so many strange beasts can be found, and that is this Thousand Cave Mountain! "

"This place is the shadow under the lampshade!"

Dugu Yifeng said each word with a calm tone, yet it did not lose its sharpness. The light in his eyes also became brighter and brighter.

"Take the right!" Dugu Yifeng paused for a moment before giving the order.

There were no marks left on the left side of the fork. Instead, there were some footprints left on the right side that had been deliberately erased. If it wasn't for the fact that Dugu Yifeng had been wandering around for many years in his past life, he would never have been able to distinguish the footprints left there.

A trace of a smile appeared on Dugu Yifeng's face. He had only guessed at what had happened here before, but now that it had been verified, he finally had a trace of a smile on his face.

This time, the Fierce Demon Stronghold won't be able to escape!

In a deep cave, there was a flash of blue light. Several skeleton-like figures were kneeling on one knee, the sweat on their foreheads slowly congealing.

"Get over here! What's the use of keeping you all alive? Even after so many years of cultivation, your powers are still so weak! " An angry roar reverberated in the air. Behind these few thin and weak figures, a man exuded a black aura as he walked step by step in front of them. The voice from before came from his mouth.

That person was completely wrapped in black clothing and it was impossible to see his appearance. However, one could still see his blood-red hair. Behind him was another person wearing a black robe. His face was also completely covered by the large hat, and one could not see his appearance.

"Lord …" Lord... Spare me … "Wrap..."

"Alright, all of you can roll over now to continue transmitting the skill!" That person shouted with a dignified tone. The few frail people beside him immediately tumbled and crawled their way to the back.

"Hei Xuan, how's the task going?" The blood-haired man asked in a calm voice after the few thin and weak people ran away.

"Don't worry, Lord Blood." Naturally, I have dealt with the matters that you asked me to do. Those people have already been led into the tomb of the God of Death by me. "

"But, Master Xue, you are really something! That person is just as you expected, he really knows the art of investigation in the army. You intentionally left behind a suspicious array, so he really is heading in your direction! " With a respectful expression at the corner of his mouth, Hei Xuan bowed and said with an expression of admiration.

Inside the cave, Dugu Yifeng was still proceeding forward. Ever since they had entered the path on the right, Dugu Yifeng and the others hadn't encountered any other forks in the road. Thus, they didn't need to think too much about it as they continued their journey horizontally.

However, the deeper they went, the more careful Dugu Yifeng and the others became. They had entered for quite some time now, but they had yet to encounter any strange beasts.

There were only two scenarios for this situation. The first one was that there really were no strange beasts here.

As for the other method, it was … They... He had entered the domain of some powerful beast!
