In the outer circle of the Black Demon Mountains, mercenaries are busy hunting monsters.
At this time, Gu Yuan was caught by the golden-haired vulture and was hanging in the air.
Seeing himself getting farther and farther away from the ground, Gu Yuan felt a little scared, "Senior Ying, where are you taking me?"
"Hey, don't panic, you'll know in a moment."
The golden eagle sped up, its eagle eyes looking around at the scenery below, as if looking for something.
"Here it is!"
At a certain moment, the golden vulture let out a soft cry and then swooped down.
Putting Gu Yuan, whose stomach was churning, down, the golden-haired vulture landed on the ground with Gu Yuan.
“Cough cough cough…”
Gu Yuan covered his stomach, his face pale, and looked around.
This place is almost the same as the place where Xiao Xueyan was seen in the inner circle before, with the same waterfall. The only difference is that Gu Yuan and the golden-haired vulture are now on a cliff, while the waterfall is on the opposite side, separated by an abyss.
Gu Yuan stood up and looked down. The bottomless abyss made him dizzy. He hurriedly took a few steps back, and his face turned even paler.
"Senior Ying, why did you bring me here?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Hey, aren't we here to help you improve your physical strength? This is the perfect place for you."
"Here...here?"
"Are you kidding? How can I improve my physical strength here? Jump down?" Gu Yuan smiled helplessly.
Unexpectedly, the golden eagle nodded and said gloatingly, "That's right, I'm going to jump down."
"ah?"
Gu Yuan's face was filled with black lines. What if he jumped into such a bottomless place and fell to his death? He didn't want to die yet.
"Are you scared, kid?"
The golden-haired vulture glanced at Gu Yuan with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
"I say, Senior Ying, can you be more reliable? If I jump from such a height, won't I die? Even if there is a lake formed by the water from the waterfall below, my small body can't withstand the impact." Gu Yuan rolled his eyes and said.
"Tsk, look at you, you're such a coward."
With a sneer, the golden eagle suddenly spread its ten-meter-long wings and said, "Come up!"
"Um?"
"Don't waste time, are you really going to jump down by yourself?"
“No, no, no!”
Gu Yuan hurriedly jumped onto the back of the golden-haired vulture, and then used his spiritual energy to stabilize his body.
"Circulate your spiritual energy and protect yourself. There is some miasma down there, which is very poisonous, so you have to be careful. Are you ready?" said the golden-haired vulture.
A pale yellow spiritual energy enveloped his entire body, and Gu Yuan said, "I'm ready."
"Well, we can go now."
The golden vulture soared into the sky and then plunged into the abyss.
Looking at the waterfall opposite, Gu Yuan was filled with shock. Nature was indeed a wonder of nature. He instantly thought of the two lines of poetry: "The waterfall plunges three thousand feet straight down, as if the Milky Way falls from the sky."
Gu Yuan withdrew his gaze and then turned his eyes to the mountain wall on the other side.
The mountain wall was very dry, without any signs of water erosion. In the dark corners of the mountain wall, Gu Yuan seemed to be able to see some moving figures.
"Those should be vampire bats that are used to living in the dark, right?"
"Yes, be careful, this place is quite strange." The golden vulture was carrying Gu Yuan, and the altitude of the two was constantly decreasing.
After diving for half an hour, the golden-haired vulture's body suddenly stopped, and Gu Yuan immediately became alert.
"We are almost at the ground now, so we must remain vigilant."
The golden-haired vulture's voice became unusually solemn, and Gu Yuan also began to pay close attention, always looking around.
"See that faint mist down there? That's miasma that's accumulated over time. Take a detoxification pill first."
Gu Yuan stretched his head and looked down. Although the distance was very far, he could still see a faint fog appearing above the ground. According to his estimation, it should have already dived to about three-quarters of the height.
Not daring to hesitate any longer, Gu Yuan hurriedly swallowed a detoxification pill, then took out another one and said, "Senior Ying?"
"I don't need this thing. It's just a miasma. Although my strength has been sealed, my physique is still there."
The golden eagle was concentrating on diving. After an unknown amount of time, it slowly landed on the ground.
"Be careful! Don't come down!"
The golden eagle's claws just touched the ground, and then it immediately retracted its claws as if it had been electrocuted, stood up and flew away, shouting softly.
"Senior Eagle, what's wrong?"
Gu Yuan asked with a serious expression. He could sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him.
"Look down there, this is a swamp. Those little black bugs that appear and disappear in it are called corpse-eating bugs. The strength of each one is basically around level five spiritual disciples. They specialize in devouring corpses for a living, but since no one has been here for many years, they don't mind eating some living flesh and blood." The golden-haired vulture said, pointing its claws downwards.
Gu Yuan's face changed slightly, and his scalp suddenly felt numb. The insects in the swamp below were all piled up in piles, at least hundreds of them. If some unlucky guy accidentally fell in, the result would be...
Gu Yuan's heart trembled a little.
"Are you wondering why I brought you to this place?" The golden-haired vulture looked back at Gu Yuan and asked.
"Yes!" Gu Yuan said without hesitation.
"This place is considered to be within the outer circle, but it's very secluded. I stumbled into it by mistake back then. I call this place the Black Demon Secret Realm."
