The fierce beast finished speaking, then looked at Zhou Yan, its eyes filled with a strong sense of mockery.
"An elder is coming out? Hmph! Are you an idiot? We're standing here, how can anyone come out!" Zhou Yan said to the giant beast in front of him.
The fierce beast was stunned. It hadn't expected Zhou Yan to be right. There was indeed no exit here. This cave was a naturally formed valley, with only a round opening at the top. Apart from the opening, everything else was the same.
Seeing that the giant beast was speechless, Zhou Yan immediately took out two spirit stones from his Qiankun bag, threw them on the ground, and said to the fierce beast, "Eat these spirit stones and you can leave. Otherwise, you will die today."
The fierce beast's eyes lit up as it looked at the two spirit stones on the ground. However, it remembered how powerful the young man in front of him was earlier. It was no match for him. What if he really wanted to kill it?
"Hmph! If you dare to hurt me, you're dead! My clan's elder will arrive here soon!"
The fierce beast threatened Zhou Yan fiercely, implying that Zhou Yan should not act rashly.
"Hmph! Then you wait to be killed by me!"
Zhou Yan snorted coldly at the fierce beast in front of him, then rushed into the cave. He had been looking for an exit in the cave but hadn't found one, so he had no choice but to move forward.
Seeing Zhou Yan heading into the cave, the fierce beast was terrified and quickly followed him in.
"Aowoo!"
The fierce beast roared as it saw Zhou Yan running inside, trying to stop him. However, as soon as its roar fell, the entire valley began to shake violently.
"Not good, this formation has changed, I can't get out!" the fierce beast roared at the formation in front of it.
"Hmph! Want to get out? No way, just wait for death!" Zhou Yan snorted coldly at the formation in front of him and directly slapped it.
"Boom!"
The formation suddenly exploded, and an extremely huge dark shadow lunged out of the formation, pouncing and biting at Zhou Yan.
As soon as the formation exploded, the giant monster instantly jumped out of it and lunged at Zhou Yan.
When the formation began to detonate, all the trees within a thousand-meter radius around the formation collapsed, instantly forming a pile of rubble.
Zhou Yan looked at the charging fierce beast and instantly unleashed a palm strike. A vast amount of five-elemental power surged out, hitting the body of the charging giant fierce beast fiercely.
"Bang!"
With a dull thud, the body of the giant beast was heavily slammed to the ground by Zhou Yan's palm, and the entire valley shook violently.
"Rumble...!"
The valley shook continuously, as if there was an earthquake. The ground cracked, and the soil splashed everywhere. Dust billowed several feet high, extremely terrifying.
"Boom...!"
Suddenly, the ground collapsed violently, and a huge black hole emerged from beneath the ground.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, a scream rang out, and a huge dark shadow shot out from underground.
"Boom!"
"Aowu! Aowu!"
The dark shadow rapidly charged towards the sky, instantly disappearing into the sky. Meanwhile, on the ground, the huge black hole continued to expand, looking extremely terrifying.
"Roar!"
"Aowoo!"
Instantly, mournful cries echoed throughout the valley again, and screams spread throughout the entire valley.
Zhou Yan looked at the scene in front of him, a faint smile appearing on his lips. Looking at the giant dark shadow in front of him, Zhou Yan was very pleased.
He hadn't expected there to be such a powerful demonic beast beneath this cave. Moreover, this beast's strength was extremely formidable, comparable to a human cultivator at the seventh-star, eighth-tier realm. Zhou Yan was no match for it.
This greatly surprised Zhou Yan. As expected of a celestial beast's cave, it harbored such heaven-defying demonic beasts.
"Kid, the treasures inside belong to you. However, I warn you, you'd better not harm my kin, or I will never forgive you."
The giant dark shadow suddenly spoke, using human language.
"Oh! I won't harm anyone. You brought this upon yourself!" Zhou Yan said coldly to the giant dark shadow.
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, the giant dark shadow's face showed anger, and its eyes were filled with killing intent.
"Boom!"
The giant dark shadow suddenly swung its tail and whipped towards Zhou Yan, instantly sending Zhou Yan flying and crashing into the mountain wall beside him.
"Ah......!"
Zhou Yan let out a cry of pain, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Hmph! How dare you harm my kin! I will make your life worse than death!" the giant dark shadow said cruelly, and then quickly rushed in front of Zhou Yan.
At this moment, the giant fierce beast outside the valley suddenly let out a startled cry, then quickly flew out and disappeared without a trace in a flash.
Zhou Yan frowned as he watched the fierce beast flee into the distance. He hadn't expected this demonic beast to be so cunning, ambushing him when he was not paying attention.
However, Zhou Yan was not too worried. Although he had been ambushed by the fierce beast and suffered some injuries, they were not serious.
When the fierce beast attacked him, Zhou Yan had only used one-third of his power, the Nine Oxen Two Tigers Strength, and not his full power. If he had used his full power, the fierce beast would have died long ago.
Although this demonic beast was at the seventh-star, sixth-tier realm and its combat power was very fierce, Zhou Yan was not afraid of it. Moreover, Zhou Yan knew that this was only a clone of the demonic beast, not its true form. Zhou Yan could handle it, so he didn't pursue it. Anyway, he had already attracted the demonic beast's attention. The next step was to find an opportunity to kill its true form, so there was no need to worry for now.
Zhou Yan looked at the ground and found many spirit herb materials and spiritual herbs. Zhou Yan quickly collected them. There were two types of spirit grasses, both seventh-star, fourth-tier spiritual medicines. They were not particularly precious but were difficult to obtain.
Zhou Yan picked two seventh-star, fourth-tier spirit grasses, and then quickly left.
Soon, Zhou Yan left the deep pit.
Returning to his previous location, Zhou Yan looked around. No one had noticed him leaving, so he quickly departed.
Not long after Zhou Yan left, the giant black figure appeared in the valley where Zhou Yan had been. It looked at the ground with resentment, then headed towards the depths of the valley, directly towards the huge pit.
