Chapter 1661: Entering the Black Cloud

o be a phantom conjured by Yue Yuan Kang through peering into his memories.But his raised fist remained frozen in mid-air, unable to come down.Jiang Yun's gaze was fixed on Xue Qing, his mind racing.I...The Death Zone, as its name implies, is an extremely dangerous place. Once you enter this area, death is almost certain.

But this is only for those who have not truly stepped into the death zone!

Though the Dead Zone is undeniably fraught with peril, both in its formidable gravity that poses a challenge to most and its fearsome beasts of immense power capable of snuffing out life in an instant.

But in reality, the five major powers all have their own territories within this region!

Just like when Jiang Yun walked out of the teleportation array before, those ten or so worlds he saw belong to the Gate of Life and Death.

It is precisely because of the many dangers present in the death zone that few outsiders dare to venture deep inside.

Once you get familiar with the environment here, from another perspective, it's quite safe.

Of course, safety is relative.

Within the death zone, there are several forbidden areas that even members of the five major forces dare not enter.

At this very moment, the black cloud spanning only a hundred meters in front of Jiang Yun, is the most dangerous forbidden zone within the entire Death Zone.

Here, the name is Heiyun!

There are all sorts of rumors about black clouds.

Some say that within the black cloud lies the birthplace of demonic beasts. All demonic beasts in the Outer Battlefield, regardless of their rank, emerge from this single black cloud;

Some also say that within the black clouds lies a cave dwelling left behind by a powerful cultivator after their demise. Within it, there is said to be the lifelong cultivation inheritance of that powerful being;

Even some people believe that the black cloud itself is a powerful demon, like the World Demon, and entering it is like entering the belly of a demon.

Although there are many rumors, no one knows which ones are true and which ones are false.

Of course, countless people have ventured into it, hoping to uncover the secrets of the black clouds. However, the vast majority entered and never came out.

And those who were lucky enough to get out only walked a short distance before retreating back.

It is even said that the founders of the five major factions once entered it, but they also returned empty-handed.

As for what was inside, they couldn't say for sure. The only thing they could confirm was that the interior was incredibly vast, comparable to an entire world, and it was indeed teeming with a large number of demonic beasts.

Over time, this black cloud became the largest forbidden area in the death zone.

More importantly, this black cloud is not static, but can move at any time.

Therefore, the five major powers will each send someone to monitor.

Once dark clouds move or any other unusual situation occurs, it is imperative to immediately report to all major forces.

Jiang Yun naturally didn't know the origin of this black cloud, and even if he did, it wouldn't change his determination to enter it.

Because of the induction transmitted by the Moonfire's birthstone, it is now clear that Moonfire is within this black cloud.

The appearance of Jiangyun naturally caught the attention of the five major forces responsible for monitoring Heiyun.

They neither spoke nor stopped Jiang Yun from approaching, for this black cloud permitted anyone to enter freely.

However, when they saw Ginger Cloud riding on Taiyang beneath him, one by one their expressions couldn't help but change drastically, and they couldn't help but let out murmurs of discussion.

"He, he is riding that demon beast Taicang"

"I guess so!"

But how is this possible Not to mention Taiyang being the king of monsters in a fifth-level region, even an ordinary monster would be impossible to tame. How did he do it"

"Could he be a demon too"

"It's not a demon, there is no demonic aura on its body at all. And it's unfamiliar in appearance, never seen before. It should be a cultivator who just entered this death zone."

"Judging by his expression, he's definitely going into that black cloud."

As for the discussions of the crowd, Jiang Yun because his mind was a little fuzzy, he didn't hear very clearly. However, he didn't pay attention, just gritted his teeth to keep his body stable, while simultaneously urging Taiyang and continuing towards the black cloud.

At this moment, Taiyang has slowed his pace, his body twisting back and forth constantly.

Especially his head turned aside, his eyes showing fear.

Obviously, Taiyang also harbored a deep fear of this black cloud, even wishing to immediately turn around and leave, completely distancing himself from here.

Under Ginger Cloud's command, it could not retreat, it could only continue forward.

And the onlookers surrounding them, as Jiang Yun and Taiyang drew closer, also chose to step aside.

Although they were surprised that Ginger Cloud could ride on Taiyang's back, they were also not optimistic about Ginger Cloud's attempt to enter Heiyun.

Just like that, Jiang Yun had slowly approached the black cloud and was about to enter it.

But just at that moment, a wave of foul stench suddenly surged out from the black clouds.

A whiff of blood reached Tai'yang's nostrils, and the fear it already felt caused it to raise its front hooves high in alarm. A terrified snort escaped its mouth, and it even had a fleeting urge to flee.

Jiang Yun hurriedly reached out and grabbed hold of Taiyang's mane tightly. Under the immense force, he prevented its escape.

As for this sudden gust of blood, the surrounding people were not flustered at all. They each flashed and dodged far away.

They know that a demonic beast is about to burst out from the black clouds!

And such a situation is very common. From within the black clouds, monster beasts occasionally burst forth. They have long since grown accustomed to it.

As the stench of blood wafted through the air, a massive head emerged from the dark clouds. It resembled a giant centipede with its mouth wide open, letting out a deafening roar.

The sudden appearance and roar of the centipede instantly terrified Taiyang, giving him a fresh impulse to run away.

But Gingercloud's hand had already appeared with the Soul-Striking Whip. Before the centipede's roar could fall, she struck its head heavily with a whip.

"Bang!"

Jiang Yun's whip condensed all his soul power, and the Soul Whip roared out a phantom whip shadow ten zhang in size, like the tail of a demon beast, heavily striking the soul of the centipede before him, emitting a dull sound.

The centipede cried out in agony, its voice shrill and piercing. The head it had just extended immediately retracted back into the black cloud.

And as Jiang Yun swung his whip with all his might, his body involuntarily swayed slightly due to the sheer force. Even blood oozed from the wounds on his body, and he nearly fell off Tai Yang's back!

"Go!"

After barely managing to stabilize his figure, Jiang Yun let out a soft shout from his mouth, urging Taiyang to continue moving towards the black clouds.

Meanwhile, those who belonged to the five major forces behind Jiang Yun couldn't help but glance at each other. Greed flashed in many of their eyes.

They could see this, each of them were sharp-eyed and at a glance could tell that Jiang Yun had some serious injuries.

Especially the whip in Jiang Yun's hands, which could inflict considerable damage on demonic beasts.

Although they didn't know it was a whip specifically designed to attack souls, it was enough to make them covetous.

But thinking about the centipede that had just been beaten back by Jiang Yun's whip, they lost their courage to enter. They could only stand up straight and get as close to the entrance of Heiyun as possible, waiting nervously.

In their opinion, once Ginger Cloud entered the black cloud, he would definitely be killed directly by that centipede.

Then, after waiting a while, if the centipede could leave the black cloud naturally, that would be best.

If they don't leave, then maybe these people could rush in and see if they could grab Ginger Cloud's whip before time runs out.

And those who did not enter, after a moment's hesitation, each took out their transmission jade slips and informed their respective forces of the matter!
