Chapter 413 - Strange Valley (2/2)
“Dead Qi?” Su Lianyue was a little surprised. She just felt a lot colder here and nothing of Dead Qi at all, why did Xiao Chen… She looked at Xiao Chen with a little doubt in her eyes. Xiao Chen did a shush gesture and whispered, “There may be a breach in front, where the Dead Qi infiltrated; go, let’s go and take a look.”
Xiao Chen led the way and Su Lianyue followed him carefully. They kept their footsteps light, for the fear of alarming something. As they moved forward, the colder it became the denser the Dead Qi was.
Finally, after walking for nearly two hours, they arrived at the deepest part of the valley. The place was shrouded by Dead Qi. There were no living creatures within kilometers of radius, and there were no plantations, just rocks, and gravels lying everywhere.
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and stopped Su Lianyue. He then released his Divine Sense cautiously and explored carefully where the Dead Qi penetrated from. Following the position where the Dead Qi penetrated, Xiao Chen bypassed several stone forests and found a small chaos breach in front of a cliff wall.
The Dead Qi was infiltrated bit by bit from here. Just like that mystic domain in the Immortals’ League, the Spiritual Qi in Tianyuan City had also penetrated through a small breach previously. However, the breach in front was significantly smaller.
Su Lianyue was shocked. Firstly because of the breach in this mystic domain, and secondly because Xiao Chen was able to find it accurately. She whispered, “Was it made by the Corpse Refinery Sect?
Xiao Chen pondered for a moment and shook his head, “It should be caused by the mystic domain itself after a long time. Maybe the Corpse Refinery Sect not even know about it.” After speaking, he stared at the breach for a long time, and said, “Let us work together and try to see if we can open it.”
Su Lianyue nodded. Then the two of them joined forces to urge their True Energy to strike a Mystic Power at the chaos breach. However, a strong force bounced back instantly and the impact sent them both flying…
When they landed on the ground, both of them looked pale. Xiao Chen supported Su Lianyue and frowned. “Are you alright?” Su Lianyue shook her hand. She panted as she looked at the chaotic breach, and asked, “What’s going on?”
Xiao Chen thought for a moment and said, “Some mystic domains are like this. It seems that we are not strong enough now. If we are of the Nirvana Realm cultivation, we can open it in one shot. Otherwise, even if with the help of foreign objects, we will also be bounced back by the force.”
“What then?” Su Lianyue’s eyebrows were locked deep and she sounded anxious. Xiao Chen said, “Don’t worry, wait for our cultivation to improve a little more and we’ll try again. For now, let’s leave first.”
Su Lianyue finally nodded. It seemed that after what happened last night, she has become more obedient to Xiao Chen.
The two of them then memorized the position of this Death Valley and left. They traveled 50 kilometers northward and reached an Emerald Valley with beautiful clusters of flowers and trees. The scenery was radiant and enchanting and it was full of Spiritual Qi. There were many emerald lakes afar. Many five-colored fairy deer were drinking by the lake. There were hundreds of flowers blooming in the vicinity, and they were brightly colored with a pleasant fragrance. There were also many birds in the woods. It was like a fairyland on earth.
“This place… isn’t that too much Spiritual Qi here?” Su Lianyue seemed very surprised and excited. Xiao Chen also felt a sense of rejoicing. The Spiritual Qi was indeed abundant here. He had more Spiritual Meridian veins in his body than Su Lianyue and could naturally feel more than her. This was a holy place for cultivation.
“I’ve decided that I’ll wait until I reach the Nirvana Realm before I leave!” Su Lianyue looked very happy, even faintly a little carried away, then she hurried into the valley after speaking.
Xiao Chen frowned and said, “Be careful.” Then he chased after her.
The valley was bright and scenic. Su Lianyue felt at ease. She looked at the sparkling lake, the colorful exotic flowers and plants, the trees full of fairy fruits, and the friendly fairy deer and rabbits. She could not help but say, “I have been in Blue-water Altar for more than ten years and I have never seen such a beautiful place. Do you think it is beautiful here? ”
Xiao Chen thought she was being a little fussed and said indifferently, “Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful. Then let’s just stay here and don’t leave. There is a beautiful company, ain’t I happy? Why should I go out and be in fights again? ”
“You!” Su Lianyue glared at him gently, but she was happy at the moment, so she did not bother to argue with him. With a glance, she saw a cave behind the vegetation not far away. The cave seemed to have traces of artificial excavation. She could not help feeling a little strange and ran over.
Xiao Chen shook his head and did not want to follow her anymore. Just that as he watched the flowers and trees in this valley, he suddenly had some subtle feelings in his heart. There was an ancient saying that stated that if there had been a place in the previous life and this life you came to it again, then there will be a feeling of Deja Vu, which was what he was feeling now.
“Young Master! Come and see! What is this! ”
Xiao Chen was distracted when he suddenly heard Su Lianyue’s exclamation came from the cave not far away. Xiao Chen regained his focus, and he frowned and quickly walked over to the cave. As he went into the cave, he saw that the stone walls on both sides of the cave were carved with text, and they looked aged and ancient.
