Chapter 2039: Ghost Valley
There must be a lot of cultivators in front of them, and they have been searched countless times over the years. Even if there are good things, they can't be found now, so the two of them went to the left side of the front. The mountains here are relatively flat, and the dense forests in the mountains are lush and green. Relatively speaking, there are few people coming here.
Yuan Jizi and Qingyang flew forward while exchanging the information they had inquired about the location of the True Spirit Tomb. It is said that many years ago, there were several True Spirits such as the Ten Thousand Eyed Golden Toad, the Purple-Striped Dragon Carp, the Ice Kirin, and the Sky-Covering Human-Faced Moth fighting fiercely here. In the end, the Ten Thousand Eyed Golden Toad, the Purple-Striped Dragon Carp, and the Ice Kirin all fell here. Only the Sky-Covering Human-Faced Moth used means to escape. After countless years, this place has become a forbidden area, and only those with a cultivation base above the God of Incarnation dare to enter. It is said that the purple dragon carp died in the large sea area on the right, the frozen snowfield at the back was transformed by the ice unicorn, and the ten thousand-eyed golden toad died in the continuous mountains in front. They don't know what these true spirits are capable of, but they must have survived the heavenly tribulation and are comparable to immortals.
The entire True Spirit Tomb is the battle range of the True Spirit. Under normal circumstances, blood jade crystals may be produced in all places, but the location is also divided into good and bad. The probability of production in the core area is definitely higher, especially in the central area where the True Spirit fell, which is most likely to obtain a large number of high-quality blood jade crystals.
However, countless years have passed, and no one knows where the True Spirit fell. Fortunately, everyone has their own way of judging, that is, the most dangerous place in the True Spirit Tomb is also the most likely place for the True Spirit to fall. Therefore, most of the cultivators will not search around aimlessly after entering, but go to the dangerous places marked by the predecessors, and then look for blood jade crystals in a small area.
Of course, as people dug, the number of blood jade crystals in the True Spirit Tomb became less and less, and the quality became lower and lower. It was very likely that they would waste time just for this purpose, so some people gave up. The purpose of coming in was simply to train, kill the magic beasts and the dark worms, and find natural treasures. The spiritual energy here is rich, and it is only opened once every three hundred years. There are also many spiritual herbs of high age.
Qingyang and Yuan Jizi chose a place called Guichoujian. Guichoujian is bottomless, dark all year round, and poisonous fog is pervasive at the bottom. If a living person enters, he will turn into pus in a moment, and even his bones will decay after an hour. It is a thousand times more severe than outside. Fortunately, there are no other magic beasts or dark worms in it, but only some low-level ghosts, which are nothing to the cultivators of the Divine Transformation. The poisonous fog can barely resist it, and the danger level is not too high compared to other places.
According to normal understanding, blood jade crystals are less in places with low danger levels, so few cultivators will go to Guichoujian. They should be able to keep some things and try their luck.
The speed of the two people's flight was not very fast. It took nearly two hours to reach the destination after a journey of more than a thousand miles. From a distance, the Naguichou Gorge looked like a huge crack cut by someone on the ground. It was less than two hundred feet wide, but it was more than a thousand miles long, and there was no end in sight.
It was hard to say how deep the Guichou Gorge was, because there was water hundreds of feet below the gorge, and no one had ever completely explored the bottom of the water. However, according to the information about the Guichou Gorge that Yuan Jizi bought at a high price, someone had reached a depth of ten thousand feet before, indicating that the depth of the Guichou Gorge was definitely not less than ten thousand feet.
The two came to the edge of the Guichou Gorge and looked down. It was dark inside and nothing could be seen clearly. The divine consciousness was suppressed even more severely here. They could only explore the height of the water surface in the gorge. They had no idea whether there was any danger hidden under the water surface. If there was a powerful enemy lurking in the dark, they would be easily attacked without enough reaction distance and time in the Guichou Gorge.
A breeze blew, and thick fog floated up from the bottom of the stream. Qingyang suddenly felt a stinging pain on his skin. The Zhen Yuan shield formed outside his body before was completely useless. His skin actually showed signs of decay and melting. He was afraid that it would turn into pus after a long time. Qingyang did not dare to neglect it. He quickly took out a pill and put it in his mouth. At the same time, he used Zhen Yuan to activate a high-level talisman and stuck it on his body.
This pill and high-level talisman were bought by Qingyang at a high price before entering the Zhenling Tomb. Although they are not as magical as the Yuluo Umbrella and the Analysis of Yuan Realm at the auction, they can also guarantee the safety of cultivators to a certain extent. More quantity is also useful. Yuan Jizi naturally prepared corresponding means.
After making preparations, Yuan Jizi said, "Fellow Daoist Qingyang, let's go down now."
Qingyang nodded and said, "Although we have heard that this Guichou Gorge is not very dangerous, we still have to be extremely careful. It is impossible that there are only two of us in such a long Guichou Gorge. There is no guarantee that there will be no one who wants to kill people and steal treasures. You are responsible for searching for the blood jade crystal, and I will be responsible for guarding the surroundings."
After speaking, Qingyang and Yuan Jizi jumped into the Guichou Gorge, and their bodies began to fall rapidly. The poisonous fog around them became thicker and thicker, and the toxicity and corrosiveness became greater and greater. Qingyang could feel that the effect of the talisman had reached its limit. If he had not taken the elixir, his body would have been unable to bear it.
After hundreds of feet, the two fell into the water, and their descent speed suddenly slowed down a lot. With the barrier of water, the corrosiveness of the poisonous fog was weakened a little, but what followed was the pressure of the water. The pressure increased the further down they went. It was not a big deal at one or two thousand feet, but after three or four thousand feet, they would feel huge pressure squeezing in from all directions, and breathing became increasingly difficult. At five or six thousand feet, the pressure became even greater, and their bodies seemed to be squeezed into a ball, and their internal organs were almost squeezed to pieces. If they did not all have the cultivation level of a spirit transformation, they might not be able to bear it.
After nearly an hour, the two of them landed at the bottom. Qingyang estimated that the bottom of this place was about 6,000 feet away from the top of the ravine. This place should be closer to the edge. Guichou ravine is not that deep. If you continue to walk along the bottom of the ravine, it will get deeper and deeper.
The width of the top of the ravine is less than 200 feet, and the bottom of the ravine is narrower, but it is not very regular. Some places are more than 100 feet, some places are dozens of feet, and the narrowest is only more than 20 feet. Even if the divine consciousness is suppressed very badly, they can still easily explore the edge with their divine power.
There are stone walls on both sides, with many cracks of varying depths. This is naturally formed. I don’t know if there is any danger inside. Occasionally, you can see some regular caves. These are left by the predecessors who searched for blood jade crystals, but the caves are not deep, and they probably didn’t find anything good.
Yuan Jizi took out a jade bead the size of a fist and introduced it: "This is the jade crystal ball I prepared. It was made by a high-level refiner using blood jade crystal. It can resonate with the blood jade crystal. After using the true essence to stimulate it, if there is a blood jade crystal within a few dozen feet, this jade crystal ball will vibrate slightly."
