Chapter 2297: Chapter 2297: Discovery!

At a certain location on the outskirts of the Black Gold Canyon.

At this moment, four cultivators are in a confrontation.

Among them are two, an elder and a young person.

The elder is Elder Yan from the small town, with a beautiful woman by his side.

On the opposite side of these two, there are two strange-looking aliens, one is tall and one is thin.

At this moment, all four are vigilantly staring at each other.

Elder Yan’s face is grim, and he coldly shouts:

"We were the ones who discovered this place first; aren’t you being too domineering."

"You think a single sentence can make us leave."

Hearing this, the strange-looking alien coldly replies:

"Then blame your bad luck."

"Old man has taken a liking to this place."

"If you don’t leave, don’t blame me for being rude."

The alien appears ready to strike at any disagreement.

At this time, Elder Yan coldly says:

"We all understand the situation."

"You want to seize this place because you think the magic artifact locating the Cannibal Immortal works here."

"You believe the Cannibal Immortal is inside."

"However, due to the spatial interference of this Black Gold Canyon, the locating artifact might not be accurate."

"Previously, it’s reacted in many places, but in the end, there was nothing."

"So, why rush, gentlemen?"

"Why not enter together and search?"

"Perhaps, this time, there will be nothing again."

Hearing this, the alien sneers:

"Whether the Cannibal Immortal is inside has nothing to do with you."

"Old man doesn’t have a habit of searching with others."

Elder Yan’s face completely darkens.

"If that’s the case, then let’s try our hand."

As soon as these words are spoken, the alien immediately wants to make a move.

However, at this moment, the nearby thin alien suddenly pulls him back.

Then, they begin using Divine Thought Communication.

Moments later, the alien’s brow furrows, showing a hesitant expression.

Immediately, he stares at Elder Yan and says:

"Alright then, since that’s the case, let’s enter first and take a look."

"But if you dare follow us, don’t blame me for being rude..."

After saying this, the two aliens immediately charge out of the canyon area.

Once they leave, the beautiful woman looks at Elder Yan:

"Elder Yan, what should we do now?"

"Should we go in too?"

Elder Yan nods and says:

"We definitely need to make a trip."

"The locating artifact indeed reacted."

"But those two don’t seem friendly; what if they ambush us on the way..." The woman looks anxious.

Elder Yan solemnly says:

"No worries, we’ll just be careful."

"If we really must fight them, the treasure I prepared can be put to use."

"Even if we can’t defeat them, escaping won’t be a problem."

The woman falls silent after hearing this, only nodding.

Then, both of them leap into the canyon.

As they delve deeper into the canyon, Elder Yan’s expression gradually turns serious.

From the outside, the canyon seems only covered with faint demonic qi.

But surprisingly, as they delve deeper, the demonic qi becomes increasingly dense.

Moreover, the canyon is far longer and deeper than it appears from the outside.

Someone unaware might think they’ve reached the core of the Black Gold Canyon.

At this moment, a hint of excitement appears in Elder Yan’s eyes.

Suppressing his excitement, he says:

"The Cannibal Immortal is highly likely to be here..."

Hearing this, the beautiful woman also becomes thrilled.

"Elder Yan, why do you say that?"

Elder Yan points to the canyon area.

"This area, I’ve never heard of before."

"Apparently, it formed recently."

"Yet it gathers such dense demonic qi; it’s an ideal hiding spot."

"If I were the Cannibal Immortal, I would choose to hide here too."

The woman nods thoughtfully.

"Elder Yan, what should we do now?"

"Should we notify others?"

Elder Yan thinks and says:

"Not yet, let’s search first."

Saying this, he takes out the artifact again, following the indications, swiftly flying away.

Shortly after they leave, on the other end of the canyon.

Behind a high-altitude waterfall, in an inconspicuous cave, suddenly, a pair of eyes appear.

These eyes are full of looming intent.

...

Now, several thousand miles away from the canyon in another region.

A massive golden mouse-shaped demon beast, leading a group of followers, also holds a locating artifact, following its guidance toward the mysterious canyon.

As they approach within a thousand-mile range of the canyon.

One of the Gold-devouring Rat’s followers steps forward and bows:

"Master."

"Ahead lies the canyon, territory of the Demon Lizard."

"Should we bypass the area?"

The Gold-devouring Rat frowns.

"Bypass?"

"The artifact shows the Cannibal Immortal is in that canyon."

"Why should we bypass?"

"It’s just a Demon Lizard."

"This king is not afraid of him."

"Everyone, gather yourselves. Whoever finds the Cannibal Immortal first will be richly rewarded."

Upon hearing this, the follower immediately replies:

"Yes, master."

...

Zhou Yu and Yu Ruo, following the road they came on, return because the path is familiar and they have already cleared most of the obstacles.

Thus, the journey out is very smooth.

Soon, they arrive in the Flying Waterfall Area, where the Cunwu True Fire Demon Beast resides.

Arriving here, Yu Ruo quickly speaks:

"Senior Zhou, can we rest here for a moment."

"Days of traveling, I can’t keep up anymore."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu faintly nods.

"Alright."

Upon hearing, Yu Ruo hastily thanks him, then moves to the side, takes out Pill Medicine and Spirit Stone, and begins to recover.

Zhou Yu sits cross-legged.

He doesn’t need to recuperate.

The exhaustion from his battle with the Servant Beast has almost recovered during the journey.

Now, as he waits for Yu Ruo, his Heart Spirit sinks into the Four Directions Realm.

He checks the Purple Tiger.

Finds this guy is snoring again.

After witnessing the Purple Tiger’s might, Zhou Yu feels.

This Purple Tiger might be one of the Qilin’s million avatars?

However, comparing the aura of Yu Ruo and that unnamed man.

Their auras have similarities.

And, including the Servant Beast, all three share similar auras.

Actually, that’s the Qilin aura.

But the aura of the Purple Tiger significantly differs from theirs.

This makes Zhou Yu uncertain.

He’s not yet sure.

He wants to find an opportunity to ask the Purple Tiger, but every time it sleeps, it can’t be awakened, only waking up on its own.

Zhou Yu thinks for a while and then lets it go.

Wait for another time.

Subsequently, Zhou Yu begins to examine his own body...
