Everyone rode on the Floating Boat and departed for the Cloud Mountain Range. To Alex's surprise, the floating boat continued to fly even after entering the Inner Area of the Cloud Mountain Range and it was actually flying in the direction where Alex had killed the Flaming Lion.
It took about three hours for the people of the Floating Cloud Academy to reach their destination from the academy. The destination was exactly the place where Alex had killed the Flaming Lion.
When the Floating Boat arrived at this place, there were already thousands of people gathered. The Floating Cloud Academy was the last to come here.
.....
Another half an hour later, a middle-aged man arrived with a young man in a white robe. This middle-aged man was Cleo Vidar and the young man was the person who heavily injured the Flaming Lion before fainting.
"Has everyone arrived?" Cleo looked at the crowd of people in front of him and asked.
Looking at the people's response, Cleo nodded and without delay, he pointed in a certain direction and said, "Look at that cave!"
Everyone turned their heads in the direction pointed by Cleo and saw a cave entrance. Alex opened his eyes wide once again. It is because he had seen this cave previously, however, he was unable to enter the cave because of the presence of the Cleo and the white-robbed young man.
However, unlike the previous time, this time he could see an enormous formation at the entrance of the cave which was emanating an ancient aura. It was as if it had existed for countless years, as if it had existed for countless ages.
Alex quietly sized up the formation for a while and exhaled a deep breath.

This cave is actually the entrance to a very small part of the Valley Of Death. But don't worry, it is not that dangerous. I hope that you will be able to come out safe and sound while having some gains." Cleo said with a serious face.
Within the Valley Of Death, even though there was an extremely abundant amount of resources, it was similarly filled with danger and was filled with killing intent.
These people who were about to participate were all chosen from the inner court of the nine top academies, so they naturally couldn't afford to lose.
Cleo said a lot of things in order to make everyone pay attention to his or his safety. If they met with a demonic beast that they could not afford to offend, they would try their best to avoid it.
He also told everyone that for some mysterious reason, this small part of the Valley Of Death was separated from its source and appeared here. And the reason why this happened is hidden inside this small part of the Valley Of Death.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and only after seeing this scene did Cleo nod his head in satisfaction. With a wave of his sleeve, he said: "Alright, now, you can all enter."
As soon as the words left his mouth, the crowd immediately surged forward. Alex also went along with the crowd. The moment he stepped foot into the cave, he immediately felt the changes in the world, and an extremely vast forest appeared before his eyes.
"This is the Valley Of Death." As soon as everyone entered, someone spoke out in excitement.
They discovered that the spiritual energy here was at least ten times denser than in the outside world. In other words, if they cultivated here for a day, it would be equivalent to more than ten days of bitter cultivation in the outside world.
"It really is a treasure trove." Everyone nodded, obviously very excited.
"Don't be too careless. You must know that even though this place looks normal on the surface, there are definitely dangers within." The one who spoke was a robust young man. He looked to be around thirty years old, and his face had a proud expression.
His name was Shehan, and at the age of thirty, he already had the strength of Spirit Origin Stage Level 3. In his country, he could be considered one of the top disciples of the young generation.
"Indeed, everyone, don't be too careless." The other man from the imprinted nation also nodded his head. He was also a genuine Spirit Origin Stage Level 3 martial warrior.
After saying that, everyone began to discuss with each other. They decided to form a group and move out together. This way, they could reduce the risk to themselves.
Under everyone's guidance, the nine strongest people from the Nine Academies all became leaders. They were Dylan from the Floating Cloud Academy, Myrda from the Star Martial Academy, Rishi from Martial Arts Academy, Algot from Black Blade Academy, Folke from Blue Sky Academy, Amir from Azure Dragon Academy, John from Spirit River Academy, Kevin from Red Sun Academy, and Dante from Mysterious Star Academy.
These nine people each represented the nine academies' top fighting strength. As leaders, they had the qualifications to serve the masses.
"Alright, listen to our commands. We will go together and find a safe place to rest. Only at night can we find a place to rest." After determining the direction, Algit stepped forward and ordered everyone.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone immediately went forward and prepared to explore, but when the crowd moved, Alex did not leave, causing everyone to turn and look at him.
"Alex? Why aren't you leaving?" Dylan frowned. He knew Alex because of his dazzling result in the Outer Court Competition. However, this kind of result did not enter his eyes.
Alex heard Dylan's question, lifted his eyelids, and spoke indifferently: "You can go, I'm used to being alone."
Alex's words caused Dylan and the others to be startled, but they immediately became angry. They had just established the group and set down the rules, and before they could fully establish their authority, they were suddenly opposed by Alex.
In that instant, the nine leaders representing the nine academies all had ugly looks on their faces.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Alex, you better be careful, this is not the outside world. Every step here is filled with danger." Another inner disciple of the Floating Cloud Academy stepped forward and said in a bad mood.
"If you don't go with the team and end up in the hands of the demonic beasts, I'm afraid you won't even have a skeleton left at that time. I advise you to come with us!" Dylan suppressed the anger in his heart and spoke up.
Faced with these people's dissuasion, Alex was not moved at all: "I've already said, I want to act alone. As for the group you've established, I have no interest in joining them, and my safety has nothing to do with you guys."
Alex rejected them again and again, making them feel embarrassed, but in the end, Dante from Mysterious Star Academy stepped forward and said, "Alright, since you want to act alone, we will not interfere with your matter. It's just that if you encounter any trouble that you can't solve, don't come looking for us."
After saying that, they led the group out without even looking back.
After they left, Alex stretched his waist and shrugged his shoulder. Then he also prepared to leave.
His first target was in the depth of a mountain range that he could see from where he was standing.
"Let's go and take a look!" With that, Alex transformed into a streak of light and flew into the sky. Alex flew the entire way, and very quickly, he arrived at the mountain range.
Not long after, he found a treasure.
In front of him was an emerald green medicinal flower. There was a dense Spiritual Energy of the world faintly circulating on it. It made this flower appear alluring and alluring, causing it to be extremely dazzling.
Alex was overjoyed when he saw this flower. This was the first treasure he is about to get his hands on in the Valley Of Death. The name of this medicinal flower was Profound Spirit Grass.
With the help of this grass, he could break through very quickly to the next levels of the Golden Core Stage.
However, even though he had discovered the location of the Profound Spirit Grass, he did not immediately extend his hand to take it, because such a treasure would most likely be protected by a fierce demonic beast. Since Alex had not found the location of the demonic beast, he would naturally not act rashly.
He released his spirit sense and covered an area of thousands of meters around the mountain range. Within that area, every single movement of all living things could not escape his observation.
Very quickly, he discovered the Guardian Beast of the Profound Spirit Grass. It was a Four-eared Iron Tail Monkey with the strength comparable to a Peak Golden Core Stage martial warrior.
