Chapter 912: Quiet Place
The two walked for about half an hour. As it got closer to noon, the gloomy atmosphere in the valley became heavier and heavier. The sky was covered with dark clouds and the sun was missing. The ground was full of bright red aphrodisiac flowers that looked like blood, which looked particularly strange.
"What a heavy Yin Qi..."
Xiao Chen frowned slightly. Even he felt a little uncomfortable this time. The Yin Qi here was much heavier than the Yin Qi in the Taiyin Palace. No wonder birds can't fly in this valley all the year round, and animals are invisible. Only this The yellow spring flowers all over the valley like this yin energy.
Fairy Hongdie said, "The Yin Qi here is relatively light. Once inside, the Yin Qi will be even heavier. If it weren't for the 'Day of Tide' approaching, no one would come here..."
When she said this, she stopped and looked around intently. After making sure that there was no one around, she continued walking and whispered, "The last tide day was more than three hundred years ago. That time I had a fight with Master Baimei. The Master of the Changsheng Sect and a few others have been here before, but our cultivation was still too low at that time and we were not able to enter in the end..."
"Then what? You've never been here again." Xiao Chen looked into the deep space in front of him and asked.
"No……"
Fairy Hongdie shook her head and looked at the valley in front of her and said, "Later, when everyone's cultivation level had reached a breakthrough, we came again, but that time the day of the tide had not arrived, and the aura of the underworld lingered, and in the end we could only We barely passed the first level. The restrictions on the second level were too heavy. When resisting the breath of the underworld, we had already consumed too much and could not pass the second level. So at the end of the day, we had no choice but to quit, otherwise we Everyone will die inside..." ✯
When she said this, she stopped on the side of the road, turned around and looked at Xiao Chen and said, "The aura of the underworld in Huangquan Valley will dissipate every few hundred years. On that day, we call it the 'Day of the Tide', and this day After the aura of the underworld recedes, it will last for about a month, which is called the 'Tide Moon'. Before the end of the Tide Moon, no matter what happens, we must evacuate, otherwise everyone will die inside without exception. ”
"tidal……"
Xiao Chen concentrated his attention, looked at the valley shrouded in layers of gloom in the distance, and asked, "When is the day of the tide this time?"
Fairy Hongdie said, "Ten days from now, that is, on the fifteenth day of this month, on a full moon night, when the Yin Qi is at its heaviest, once the breath of the underworld dissipates, everyone who comes to Huangquan Valley will inevitably enter it. , and we must enter before the day of the tide comes, that is, ahead of them..."
"That's why you went to find the Yin Ghost King, hoping that he could barely block this underworld breath for you..." Xiao Chen said lightly.
"That's right."
Fairy Hongdie nodded, looked at him and said, "But I still can't trust the Yin Ghost King. Last month, this man killed more than a hundred people in my sect..."
"oh?"
Xiao Chen looked at her, "Why do you think you can trust me in the fairy?"
Fairy Hongdie smiled faintly, "I think the young master is at least more reliable than the Yin Ghost King. However, I still want to remind you that although the day of the tide is approaching and the atmosphere of the underworld in Huangquan Valley has begun to gradually dissipate, the young master still cannot be careless, especially... When the tidal moon ends, we must retreat. Once the tide ends, the breath of the underworld will penetrate into the human world again, and even where we are at the moment will be enveloped by an extremely heavy breath of the underworld..."
"I see……"
Xiao Chen's voice was calm and he walked towards the valley ahead. The two of them walked for about half an hour and came to a mountain stream. They saw a waterfall rushing down the mountain, flying beads splashing jade, forming a deep pool at the foot of the mountain. Butterfly Fairy said, "Just wait for them here."
On the way just now, the two of them saw many other people. Presumably these people also came here for the secrets of Huangquan Valley. The day of the tide only happens once every few hundred years. I am afraid there are not a few people coming to Huangquan Valley this time, especially Huanquan Valley. A place like Ruins Hill is extremely chaotic. When everyone fights for some treasures, the place will be stained with blood.
However, the two of them came carefully and did not let anyone notice. After waiting for a while at the bottom of the mountain stream, they saw a sword light falling and transformed into a gloomy man. This man was the master of the Changsheng Sect. .
Seeing him coming, Fairy Hongdie smiled softly, "Why is there only the Master of Changsheng Sect? Where are Senior Baimei and the Ghost King?"
"I was not with them..."
The voice of the leader of the Immortality Sect was slightly gloomy, and his eyes kept falling on Xiao Chen when he spoke. Fairy Hongdie said with a smile, "Young Master Xiao, the leader of the Eternal Life Sect must have met him at the Yin Ghost King's place that day."
"I've seen it before, but I still have to remind you that the place you want to go next is not accessible to ordinary people. If you regret it now, it's still too late..."
The leader of the Changsheng Sect looked at Xiao Chen with a gloomy look. It was obvious that he would rather believe in the Yin Ghost King than a boy with unknown origins.
"Thank you, Master, for reminding me, I will be careful..."
Xiao Chen looked at him and said calmly. He didn't say anything, but he thought in his heart, I have even been to places with no access or exit like the Tomb of Gods and Demons, so do I still need you to remind me of the dangers here?
Fairy Hongdie smiled, looked up the mountain stream, and said with a smile, "The Ghost King and Master White Eyebrow are here."
As soon as she finished speaking, a ray of green sword light and a wisp of black mist instantly fell into the valley, transforming into a green-clothed Taoist with immortal aura and a terrifying man with extremely evil aura respectively.
These two people are Master Baimei and King Yingui.
The Yin Ghost King was covered in blood, like a monster, which was the most frightening thing. The leader of the Changsheng Sect was full of yin energy, and did not look like a person who cultivated immortality.
As for the Red Butterfly Fairy, she did not look like a fairy, but more like a peerless enchantress who confused the world. Just one glance could seduce and captivate people, so among these people, only the White Eyebrow Master looked the most normal.
"Xiao Xiaoyou, you are here..."
At this moment, the White Eyebrow Master walked in front of Xiao Chen with a whisk in his hand and greeted him.
Xiao Chen also felt that among the four people, only Master Baimei looked the most reliable, just like the ghost Taoist he met in the Tomb of Gods and Demons. He just didn't know whether the ghost Taoist and his friends were still trapped in the Tomb of Gods and Demons, and what level of cultivation they had reached now...
"Let's go without delay."
The head of Changsheng Sect was gloomy, walked forward a few steps, looked ahead and said, "That place is very far away. Even if you fly a sword, it will take a day and a night."
In fact, Huangquan Valley is very large, not just a valley, especially the restricted area inside. Once you enter it, it is like a secret realm, boundless and endless.
Everyone flew the flying sword and immediately flew to the other side of the mountain stream. Before leaving, Xiao Chen looked back in the direction he came from. That night, Bai Luan also sent him a message saying that the master of Taiyin Division, Guiyin Patriarch, had caught up with him. No wonder he felt someone behind him when he just entered the Hill of Illusion Ruins.
"Mr. Xiao, what's wrong?"
Seeing him looking back, Fairy Hongdie asked.
"No." Xiao Chen turned his head and stopped looking behind him. He thought that Ye Ying and the others must have been in Huangquan Valley at this time.
Several people rushed all the way, and the people below almost only felt a few strong auras passing over their heads. Before they could raise their heads, they could no longer see any figures.
"Just now... someone flew over on a sword?"
"Such a strong aura..."
The tide is coming, so there are many people coming to Huangquan Valley this time, people from various sects, or even independent people without sects, but most of these people are in the Hehe period, and many cultivators who have not yet reached the fourth stage of entering the saint, and even cultivators who have just transformed into gods, or even just condensed their Nascent Soul, all came to Huangquan Valley this time.
People like White Eyebrow Master, Changsheng Sect Master, Yin Ghost King, and Red Butterfly Fairy, in their eyes, are like gods.
Of course, it is not ruled out that there are also some peerless masters among the people who came to Huangquan Valley this time. Otherwise, Master Baimei and his companions would not have to choose to venture into it ten days before the tide came, in order to enter it before those people arrived.
At this time, the further Xiao Chen flew in, the more he could see some traces of the battle between immortals and demons in ancient times. There were peaks that were flattened by a sword, and there were also mountains that were cut off from it. There were also some deep pits that were smashed hundreds of feet, and some remaining broken giant stone formations... It can be imagined that there was a tragic battle here in the past.
The crowd flew for a day and a night, and finally entered the depths of Huangquan Valley on the morning of the next day. The breath of the underworld has gradually begun to permeate here. It will take until the tide day ten days later for the breath of the underworld in the entire Huangquan Valley to completely dissipate.
"Is this the quiet place you mentioned?"
Xiao Chen looked at the yellow spring flowers that filled the valley. Compared to the flowers outside, the yellow spring flowers here were even more full of the breath of death. The black stamens seemed to be warning everyone not to go forward. Anyone who approached would have their soul devoured.
"What? Are you scared?"
The leader of Changsheng Sect looked at him and smiled grimly. "If you regret it now, it's not too late. Once you break the first layer of restrictions, there will be no way out. Let me tell you clearly first. The restrictions inside are more powerful than the previous ones. When that time comes, no one can take care of anyone else..."
"Since the leader of Changsheng Sect has said so, if Xiao doesn't go in and take a look, wouldn't this trip be in vain..."
Xiao Chen's eyes were indifferent, and he walked forward with his hands behind his back. When he approached those yellow spring flowers, the Red Butterfly Fairy stretched out her hand, her face slightly nervous, "Young Master, be careful... Don't get close to those yellow spring flowers, their death energy will corrode you!"
"Death energy..."
Xiao Chen's eyes were still indifferent. Under the gaze of several people behind him, he leaned over and broke off a yellow spring flower. After the flower stem was broken, blood-red juice flowed out of it, which looked very strange, but not long after, the flower withered and died in his hand.
"This..."
The people behind were all slightly surprised. How could it be possible?
The Yellow Spring Flower here was tainted with a strong aura of the underworld, and living people were not allowed to get close to it. But after it fell into his hands, why did it look like he had taken away its life? This was too weird...
