Li Qiushui's power was growing at a visible rate.
She led Chu Lingguang through the Ancient Perilous Land, searching for Guo Wei. They followed the scent of the Heaven-Swallowing Python's blood, but the Ancient Perilous Land was vast.

The pair entered a new forest.
"Why do my master and his team keep getting farther away? Are they heading to a specific place?"
Having failed to find Guo Wei for three consecutive days, and with the blood trail left by the Heaven-Swallowing Python having vanished completely, Chu Lingguang couldn't help but grow anxious.
