"Not bad."
Nodding in satisfaction, Lu Chao hadn't expected this venture deep into the wilderness to yield such a reward.
He quickly pushed aside any distracting thoughts.
He scanned his surroundings, confirming that everything was resolved and there were no further complications.
Glancing up, Lu Chao looked toward the sword-like peak of Nanyun Mountain. Only then did he set off, following the route on the map from memory to begin his exploration.

「Half an hour later.」
RUSTLE...
The faint sound of footsteps could be heard.
Everything was going more smoothly than Lu Chao had imagined. Following the route on the map, he found a hidden door on a cliff face of Nanyun Mountain.
As he surveyed the area, he saw he was on a narrow, platform-like ledge halfway up the mountain. It was surrounded by jagged rocks, with sparse trees and undergrowth scattered about.
The moonlight was faint, but he relied on his enhanced dynamic vision to see what was in front of him.
