Baili An did not flee aimlessly; during his Sword Flight, he roughly memorized the terrain of the Mortal World that he had seen.
He passed through forests and hills, the rain never ceasing. Eventually, Baili An arrived deep within a hidden valley, surrounded by steep cliffs on three sides. If he wished to continue forward, he must use Sword Flight.
The valley was deadly silent, devoid of any birds or insects' chirping. Before entering the valley, Baili An was soaked with the cold rain.
But as he stepped into the valley, the rain suddenly stopped, and chaotic clouds scudded across the sky, above which a crescent moon, tinged with a hint of crimson, hung coldly.
The valley was desolate, with hardly any greenery, vast patches of withered vines and old trees covering the black sandy wasteland.
All vegetation was dead, with only a few wet, withered leaves here and there, exuding a faint musty stench amidst the dampness.
