A human, slightly over six feet tall, walked slowly and cautiously through the vast forest filled with wild beasts and venomous insects. The moonlight struggled to cast its faint glow through the dense foliage. Compared to the towering trees around him, his small frame carried a mix of anticipation and fear towards the unknown as he moved toward the river that was the only guide for his direction. 0
 
In this landscape dominated by immense creatures, Qian Mo, an unfortunate intruder, seemed insignificant like a mere insect, yet he stood out like a splash of color against the backdrop, creating a peculiar scene. 0
 
"Damn, this is really dangerous..." 0
 
Qian Mo carefully skirted around a small grove ahead, using the night vision granted by his night travel talisman to see the thick vines hanging motionless above. What appeared to be a long vine was actually a giant snake camouflaged among the branches! Its body, covered in dark green scales, spanned several branches, with its eyes tightly shut and its slender tongue flicking in and out, sensing prey within miles. When a target approached, Qian Mo had no doubt that this seemingly languid giant would unleash tremendous power, dropping from the branches to swallow it whole! 0
 
Qian Mo even felt that the giant snake had seen through his talisman's disguise but perhaps his "petite" stature did not satisfy its appetite, so it showed no interest in him as he left its territory. 0
 
"Why do I keep running into these snakes? Since entering this ancient maze, first it was Bamon, now this tree snake—twice I've nearly met my end!" 0
 
After reflecting on his close calls, Qian Mo had to be even more cautious. He avoided countless beasts hunting and lurking in the forest. 0
 
About half an hour later, he finally heard the sound of flowing water he had been anticipating. 0
 
Thank heavens! He had completed the first step in this new map. With his night vision ability, he could see ahead where the river was partially obscured by bushes nearly as tall as himself. The ancient clear moonlight seemed to only freely shine upon this riverbed where trees did not exist. In this forest of towering trees, only the river understood its own beauty! 0
 
The destination was right ahead; Qian Mo felt elated. Just as he was about to rush toward the water, a rustling sound made him retract his already extended foot. Suddenly, two life signals appeared not far from his hiding spot in front of him! 0
 
How could this be? Earlier scans with the Secret Symbol showed no life responses within several kilometers—how long had it been? Did the beasts in the forest enjoy racing at night? This was absurd! 0
 
Since ancient times, territorial awareness has always been a tradition among wild animals, especially for the powerful beasts of the Primordial Wilderness. 0
 
Thus, in a forest with such complex power dynamics, few beasts dared to switch positions at such high speeds unless they were looking for death! 0
 
However, an example of seeking death suddenly unfolded before Qian Mo's eyes, leaving him no choice but to believe it. Unless... 0
