Chen Zhou ran at top speed, mobilizing a lot of internal energy, so running like this consumed a lot of internal energy and physical strength.

Although Chen Zhou's body is no longer that of an ordinary person, but is more refined and possesses an unseen strength.

It means that Chen Zhou doesn't look very strong, but he is incredibly powerful.

After walking about 500 meters, Chen Zhou heard a loud noise coming from behind him.

"Woohoo..."

It was a mournful howl, and Chen Zhou was certain that it must have come from the Fire Spirit Fox King.

Chen Zhou stole its fiery crown, which, for a Fire Spirit Fox King, was not only a symbol of power.

More importantly, it is a symbol of strength. The Fire Crown contains a hundred years of cultivation. Once the Fire Crown is lost, the Fire Spirit Fox King's strength will regress by a hundred years.

This is why many kingdoms are vying for the Fire Spirit Fox King's Fire Crown. Once obtained, the Fire Crown can be processed into an exquisite crown, and wearing it for a long time can enhance one's true qi cultivation, strengthen the body, and prolong life.

Once the Fire Spirit Fox King is lost, the entire Fire Spirit Fox pack will be leaderless and will naturally descend into chaos.

The previously orderly group of fire foxes suddenly scattered, scattering in all directions.

Some brave fire foxes followed the scent to find Chen Zhou, while others, unwilling to pursue him any longer, returned to their caves.

The mate of the Fire Spirit Fox King also left. The Fire Spirit Fox race reveres strength, and since this Fire Spirit Fox is no longer the Fox King, it will no longer follow it, but will instead seek a more powerful partner.

Alternatively, you can directly search for the next Fire Spirit Fox that possesses a Fire Crown.

Chen Zhou was now several hundred meters away from the location where the Fire Spirit Fox was imprisoned. At Chen Zhou's current speed, the Fire Spirit Fox was no longer able to catch up.

Moreover, even if they catch up, there will only be a few scattered fire spirit foxes, which Chen Zhou can easily handle.

Unbeknownst to many, the minor confinement array greatly helped Chen Zhou.

If the Minor Imprisonment Array can be so ingenious in taking things by surprise, then what about the Imprisonment Array?

Wouldn't that mean you can trap someone without taking them by surprise?

Chen Zhou looked forward to the next formation more and more, until he could completely learn all eighty-one formations.

When that time truly arrives, his true energy will undergo a qualitative change, and that will be the true form of true energy in the main cultivation method that Chen Zhou practiced.

Eighty-one formations are contained within true energy, combining various attributes and skills into one true energy.

Chen Zhou ran at full speed for a long time, but still couldn't get out of the Thorn Forest. Originally, Chen Zhou didn't plan to run out of the Thorn Forest in one go, which was obviously impossible.

Chen Zhou hid behind a small hill and used his true energy to completely conceal his aura, so that the fire spirit foxes would not be able to find him based on his scent and the fluctuations of his true energy.

Spirit beasts are extremely sensitive to scents and fluctuations in true energy.

Therefore, several fire spirit foxes that were chasing Chen Zhou have caught up with him along the route he had just taken. If Chen Zhou could see them, he might find that they were walking on the exact same path as him.

When Chen Zhou sat down, his hands were empty; he had already put the Heavy Edge Sword into his storage ring before setting off.

Sitting down to rest was, of course, to replenish physical strength and restore true energy. Chen Zhou took out some dry food prepared by the Third Elder and began to chew it heartily.

His true energy was constantly being replenished, but for some reason, Chen Zhou never felt the sensation of his body being full of true energy.

Logically speaking, everyone's true energy has a threshold. Once a certain amount is absorbed, no more can be absorbed, otherwise the body will explode and the person will die.

Chen Zhou, however, never sensed it.

I gain four points of true qi every minute, so I shouldn't have missed the threshold even once.

Chen Zhou took out the map again and started looking at it. He had never seen such a huge map before, and most of the places on it were unfamiliar.

Only a few people Chen Zhou knew about were the Sword Cloud Sect and the area surrounding it.

For example, the Thorn Forest, and the Path of Heart Mirror that you will enter after passing through the Thorn Forest.

This main road was another problem Chen Zhou encountered after passing through the Thorn Forest.

This avenue was also built by the Sword Cloud Sect. Originally, it was just an ordinary road, but someone did something to it. From then on, some people who entered this avenue lost themselves and forgot who they were, while others inexplicably gained an extra memory.

This is all the work of the Mirror of the Heart.

Many who have lost themselves will die on the Path of Self-Discovery.

Chen Zhou looked at the long Sword Heart Path leading to the Heart Mirror Avenue on the map, gritted his teeth, and continued on his way.

Continuing forward, Chen Zhou resumed his previous escape speed.

Because the Fire Spirit Fox chasing behind was now almost completely unable to catch up with Chen Zhou.

When it was afternoon and Chen Zhou could clearly see the sunlight on the road ahead, he knew that he had left the Thorn Forest.

Leaving the Thorn Forest, Chen Zhou continued his journey. It had only been less than half a day, and Chen Zhou had not yet entered the Path of Heart Insight.

It would take three full days to reach the Southern Kingdom, and Chen Zhou didn't know when he would be able to enter the Path of Insight.

They had no choice but to obediently move forward.

"The Path of Mirroring the Heart is said to be extremely far away, taking a full day to traverse, and is the most dangerous place in the Southern Kingdom for those traveling to the Sword Cloud Sect."

Chen Zhou wondered to himself that the journey from the Southern Kingdom to the Sword Cloud Sect was not without its challenges.

This has led to many residents of the Southern Kingdom bringing their children to the Sword Cloud Sect every year to seek the Dao. Since the formation of the Great Dao of Heart Mirror, it has become very difficult for another one to appear.

The closer one is to Chen Zhou's generation, the fewer there are.
