Little Kunpeng Ming sends a distress signal to Jiang Fan after being trapped in a snare. Jiang Fan learns that a soul-exchanging anomaly is behind the trap at Kunpeng Nest No. 9, intending to lure him there and capture both of them. Destiny hints reveal the anomaly's terrifying nature and offer Jiang Fan options, including confronting it with his Exquisite Tower to save Little Kunpeng and weaken the anomaly.

A few days later.

Jiang Fan arrived at a mountain range situated in the southwest region of the Northern Continent.

Guided by destiny’s prompt, the Kunpeng Nest No. 9 was concealed somewhere within this very mountain range.

Without this particular information, locating this Kunpeng Nest in a brief timeframe would have proven exceedingly difficult.

After all, it is hidden within the void, and one would be unable to find the entrance even when passing directly by it.

"This is the precise location."

Jiang Fan’s heart fluttered as he detected a distinct spatial node materializing in the surrounding void.

Whoosh!

With a swift movement, he instantly penetrated this spatial node.

His entire being felt as though it were being engulfed by a Kunpeng.

In the subsequent moment, Jiang Fan found himself transported to an entirely different space.

This space was not particularly vast, spanning approximately ten thousand kilometers in diameter and forming a square configuration.

Within it stood a massive mountain, abundance in its flora, and home to towering trees.

It evoked the sensation of entering a sprawling mountain range that extended for countless miles.

However, this spatial realm was equipped with a total of eighteen distinct entrances and exits.

Each of these portals led to a separate, unique spatial world.

Beyond doubt, this must be Kunpeng’s Nest No. 9, notoriously known as the spatial labyrinth.

It resembled layers upon layers of spatial worlds stacked together, forming a structure akin to a honeycomb.

At this precise moment, a message seamlessly integrated itself into the depths of Jiang Fan’s sea of consciousness.

"Destiny hint: Exit through the entrance located in the due north direction to reach a secure spatial world. Should you select any other entrance, you will inevitably fall prey to the Kunpeng Nest’s traps and face complete annihilation. Even a cultivator at the Integration stage would be utterly incapable of escape."

Upon perceiving this message, Jiang Fan’s pupils constricted.

While he was aware that the Kunpeng Nest was exceptionally perilous, with most who entered facing almost certain demise, this was, after all, the very lair constructed by the Kunpeng itself, inherently hostile to any foreign entity that dared to intrude.

Consequently, the creators had engineered the nest to be terrifyingly potent and formidable.

Even cultivators at the Mahayana stage hesitated to venture carelessly into the Kunpeng Nest.

Yet, after eons and surviving the cataclysms of the Ancient Era, the Kunpeng Nest had developed certain vulnerabilities, thereby offering a slim possibility for outsiders to reach its ultimate destination.

Naturally, for the average cultivator, the chances of survival upon entering the Kunpeng Nest were virtually nonexistent.

But for him, endowed with destiny’s guidance, making the correct choice at every juncture was assured.

Whoosh!

Without a moment’s delay, Jiang Fan immediately propelled himself towards the entrance situated in the due north direction.

Soon after, he passed through this particular entrance, emerging into a brand-new spatial world.

This was a desolate desert world, characterized by its barrenness, with sand and stones swirling in the air, driven by howling winds.

Nevertheless, there was nothing within this environment capable of posing a threat to his life.

"Wait for ten minutes, then exit through the entrance located in the northeast direction."

"No need to wait, proceed through the entrance in the southwest direction."

Messages continued to flow into the core of Jiang Fan’s consciousness, allowing him to effortlessly navigate through each successive spatial world.

It was as if the Kunpeng Nest were his personal domain, encountering no peril whatsoever.

...

This abrupt turn of events naturally drew the attention of Huanshun Gui.

"How is this possible? They've discovered the Kunpeng Nest so swiftly? How did they manage such a feat?"

Huanshun Gui registered Jiang Fan’s arrival.

It was immediately astounded, realizing that the speed at which this human cultivator had arrived was astonishingly rapid.

Evidently, it had not imparted the concealed location of the Kunpeng Nest to this human.

Yet, this young man appeared to already possess precise knowledge of the Kunpeng Nest’s whereabouts and had come directly here.

What was even more unsettling was that, after penetrating the Kunpeng Nest, this human cultivator had navigated through its defenses with effortless ease, identifying the sole path to progression.

At this pace, it would not be long before he reached the deepest recesses of the Kunpeng Nest, confronting it directly.

"Something is amiss; this human is undeniably peculiar."

"We absolutely cannot permit this individual to easily reach the profoundest depths of the Kunpeng Nest."

"A method must be devised to impede his progress."

Huanshun Gui’s countenance was exceedingly serious.

It possessed an innate intuition that this human cultivator harbored a profound mystery and posed a significant threat.

Despite its conviction that this human cultivator could not inflict harm upon it, vigilance was paramount.

Who could foresee what unforeseen circumstances might arise?

It would be best to extinguish this potential danger before it could fully materialize.

Regardless, the objective remains the elimination of this individual, so there is no necessity for it to personally carry out the act.

If he were to perish within the Kunpeng Nest’s treacherous traps without any intervention required, that would indeed be an ideal outcome.

Once this human met his demise, this Lesser Kunpeng would be powerless to prevent its plans from unfurling.

"Right, not long ago, a group of human Void Refining cultivators got trapped within my Kunpeng Nest."

"This is the perfect chance to use them as a tool to deal with this fellow."

"Even if it doesn't destroy him, it might at least expose this human's true capabilities."

Huanshun Gui's mind raced, recalling recent events.

It had deliberately relocated the entire Kunpeng Nest, conjuring spectacular celestial omens that drew numerous cultivators from the Northern Continent.

Among these, a contingent of Void Refining cultivators, apparently hailing from the Star Sect, had been caught.

Originally, such insignificant human cultivators would have been effortlessly swatted aside.
