After progressing for another two days within the Beast Spirit Mountain Range, Sun Wukong and the others finally reached the depths of the range. The biggest difference here compared to the outside was the sheer size of the plants – the dense canopy almost completely covered the sky, with only slivers of light piercing through the gaps between the branches and leaves.
Strangely enough, it wasn't particularly dark here. Quite a few light points were floating around, all emerging from the plants, lending the entire forest a dream-like quality.
But Sun Wukong and his companions didn't feel the least bit dreamy because danger loomed everywhere – genuine peril lurked in every corner!
