Sima You Yue took a good look around to see where she was. All she could see was an impenetrable wall of bamboo seemingly reaching the skies. Each shoot of bamboo appeared to radiate a faint green glow and the ground was covered by a thick layer of dead leaves. How did she end up in this bamboo forest?

She came before a bamboo stem and stretched out her hand to touch it. A brisk chill lingered upon her fingertips, as if the thing that she had touched was a giant ice cube.

“So cold!” She felt as if her fingers had been frozen, to the point where she could no longer feel them, and immediately retracted her hand.

She wandered about in a circle and realized that this forest was ridiculously huge. She had already walked about for a good half hour, but she was still lost within the bamboo forest.

“What the heck is this place? Don’t tell me it’s a fantasy world, or else, why would these bamboos and rocks feel so realistic?” She sat her butt down on a piece of rock, and started to pound on her weary legs. “This body is also too weak, I’ve only walked about for a little while but it’s already so tired. It’s just too different from my previous life. If I ever have to battle anyone in the future, this would definitely be too disadvantageous! It looks like I’ll have to exercise more in the future.”

After resting for a little while, she continued to meander around the forest. She hadn’t even caught a glimpse of a single living thing, much less a Spirit Beast Egg.

“Damn, what kind of godforsaken place is this?! Didn’t they say that you just had to find a Spirit Beast Egg and leave? But this place doesn’t even have a single egg, how am I supposed to look for it!” Sima You Yue kicked a bamboo leaf that was sticking out that she was facing. Who would have thought that there was something under the leaf and it tumbled and rolled to her feet.

“A human skull?!” Looking closely at the white skull that had flew out in front, Sima You Yue immediately burst forth with killing intent. She had only realized at this point that the place in which she was standing had a few footprints.

She lowered her head to take a look. Because she had just exerted a bit of force, she had kicked away quite a number leaves that were under her. Aside from the skull, which was recently kicked aside, there were still numerous bones scattered around her.

She retreated backwards by a couple of steps and stepped down from atop the skeleton. The leaves had all been scattered, clearly revealing the entirety of skeleton.

“The skeleton has no signs of scarring. It looks as if this person had not encountered any external danger prior to his death.” Scrutinizing it once more, she thought about how she had already circled more than halfway around the entire forest. She asked in confusion, “Could it be that this person died of starvation or dehydration?”

“Master, this is an array.” Little Spirit’s voice answered in reply.

“An array? I think that someone had mentioned that this place contained an Illusion Array and it makes everything look the same, in order to let everyone see everything in front of them as the Spirit Beast Eggs.” Sima You Yue said.

“The one you’re talking about is an illusion array. This array is not an Illusion Array. It’s actually… a Mystical Array.” Little Spirit said.

“A Mystical Array? What kind of array is that?” Asked Sima You Yue.

“It’s a array that causes people to lose their way.” Explained Little Spirit. “The reason that you got lost is also because of this Mystical Array. This caused you to become increasingly anxious. You couldn’t even hear me although I had called out to you a few times just now.”
