Chen Yun stared at the arc of light for a moment, raised his arm, and waved it forward in the air.
The green sword energy rose from the ground, and then suddenly fell above the light fox.
With a loud "bang", green light burst out.
However, as soon as the sword energy touched the light fox, it immediately disappeared, as if it had been swallowed.
The arc of light still hung calmly in the air, without being affected at all.
Chen Yun nodded slightly and confirmed: this is undoubtedly a space rift.
The dangers are obvious but easy to avoid, but there are also rumors of invisible and intangible rifts in space, which are worrying.
Upon careful observation, space cracks were found at the first place of exploration, which shows that space cracks can be seen everywhere in the Demon Valley.
Stay alert at all times, otherwise you will suffer heavy losses.
Chen Yun's inner alarm bells were ringing.
Then he used his magical powers to avoid the space crack and continued moving forward without hesitation.
……
What Chen Yun didn't know was that over a hundred miles away, a plump old man was also concentrating on observing an arc of light only a few inches long in front of him, and muttering similar words.
"It was extremely dangerous. I was actually teleported to the vicinity of a spatial rift. If I had deviated by more than ten feet, the consequences would have been disastrous. It seems that there are many spatial rifts in this Fallen Demon Valley. I must be extra careful."
The old man muttered to himself, his face pale.
After observing the surroundings for a while and finding nothing unusual, the old man chose a direction, flew the light of escape for five or six feet and then turned back, aiming to get away from this place.
Suddenly, a white light appeared on the road.
The old man didn't even have time to shout before his body instantly split into two.
The two mutilated bodies were stained with thick blood and fell to the ground helplessly. The old faces were filled with disbelief and infinite regret.
The light from the space crack that had just appeared dissipated and gradually became invisible.
If no one is paying attention, it will definitely not be noticed.
……
In another location, three cultivators in gorgeous robes were struggling to shuttle among the rocks. However, every time they flew a certain distance, they would encounter a bright glow blocking their way.
"We can't get out of here. The villains from the Ghost Spirit Sect teleported us here. After we escape, we will make them pay the price!" One of the burly men with scars on his face finally stopped flying and cursed angrily.
"How could the Ghost Spirit Sect be afraid of insignificant people like us? Besides, it was stated at the beginning that teleportation is random. If we are unlucky enough to fall into a space rift, we can only blame ourselves for our bad luck."
"However, this restriction is not of the offensive type. We will eventually be able to find a way to leave."
Another cultivator with high cheekbones also stopped and responded coldly.
"If this happens, the treasures in the valley will probably be taken away by others. We are only able to search for the treasures in the outer valley, and we will definitely die in the inner valley. We have already lost all our wealth in order to buy the Demon Falling Order."
The scarred burly man shook his head helplessly.
"In this case, we have no choice but to break the restriction by force. Although this restriction is quite strange, it should be no different from the restrictions in the outer valley. If we spend more mana, we can quickly get out of this predicament."
After pondering for a moment, the cultivator with high cheekbones spoke resolutely.
"This is the only way. Second brother, your magic weapon is of the offensive type, so please go all out. The two of us will be on the side to assist." The third dark-skinned cultivator thought for a moment and nodded in agreement firmly.
"Leave this matter to me. With a little control, this restriction will break by itself."
Hearing this, the strong man responded with great energy.
Then a ball of yellow light came out of his mouth, which contained an exquisite square jade seal only about an inch in size.
The strong man quickly pinched the seal with both hands and lightly touched the jade seal with his fingers. In an instant, the jade seal swelled like a willow in the spring breeze, and instantly grew to several feet in size.
The other two people each summoned a red and a white flying sword, the tips of the swords shining brightly.
"Come on!"
The burly man roared in a low voice, and the stone seal in his hand began to spin rapidly like a gyroscope, emitting dazzling light, and suddenly rushed towards the distant glow.
Immediately afterwards, the two flying swords transformed into two gorgeous red and white rainbows in the sky, and shot forward rapidly following Shi Yin's attack.
Sure enough, the stone seal magic weapon was extraordinary. Before it touched the rosy glow, the sound of wind and thunder could be faintly heard.
Then, accompanied by a deafening roar, all kinds of colorful lights instantly intertwined together, causing the surrounding ground to shake slightly.
Seeing the stone seal display such powerful power, the other two monks couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.
However, before their smiles could fully bloom, they immediately froze at the corners of their mouths.
It turned out that among the numerous spiritual lights, the seven-colored rays of light suddenly burst out with extreme brilliance, which actually suppressed the spiritual lights of the three magic weapons for a time.
Immediately afterwards, a clear cry was heard in the rosy glow, and all three magic weapons were blown away.
The three horrified people hurriedly regained control of the magic weapon, looking at each other helplessly.
It seems that the horror of this restriction is obviously beyond their original imagination.
The burly man snorted coldly and was about to say something when the surrounding light suddenly flickered and turned a flaming red.
The three monks were puzzled for a moment, and had not yet figured out what was going on. They saw countless fire clouds quickly gathering and rolling above the restriction.
An intense heat wave instantly filled the entire area covered by the glow.
"What's going on? Didn't I say that the restrictions here are not invasive at all?"
The scarred man shouted indignantly, his tone full of surprise.
However, the other two monks did not have time to answer his question because the fire clouds in the sky poured down mercilessly.
Faced with such a situation, the three people, including the burly man, were extremely terrified. They activated their magic weapons and tried their best to protect themselves, while at the same time they frantically stuck several talismans on their bodies.
Various protective shields shone on them.
A blood-like cloud quickly covered their figures.
After a brief silence, three heart-wrenching screams were heard from the fire cloud, and then everything returned to silence.
Not long after, the fire clouds retreated like the tide, the rosy glow gradually dissipated, and only an empty space remained among the pile of rocks.
Only three magic weapons lay quietly on the ground, their light dim, as if they had lost their original spirituality.
……
The number of monks who encountered disasters after embarking on the journey to the Fallen Demon Valley was not very large, only seven or eight cases. However, the number of people who unfortunately lost their lives accounted for the majority of them. In the valley, almost every unexpected encounter would bring a threat to life.
Among them was even a Nascent Soul cultivator from a medium-sized sect, who, due to momentary carelessness, eventually died in a space crack.
Chen Yun didn't know what other people had gone through, but in this place known as the most dangerous place in southern China, he was naturally very cautious and didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.
However, at this moment, he was extremely excited.
Above a vast wasteland, he put his hands behind his back, staring ahead with eyes wide open. The blue light in his pupils kept flowing, flashing with an eye-catching brilliance.
In the eyes of others, Chen Yun with his deep blue eyes gave people a weird feeling.
However, Chen Yun at that time had no time to take care of these trivial matters.
The scene ahead was almost blank, and even when using spiritual sense to scan, nothing abnormal was found.
However, when Ming Qing's spiritual eyes were fully exerted, Chen Yun suddenly discovered that about ten feet ahead, there was an indescribable arc of light, emitting a faint glow.
Chen Yun took a deep breath of fresh air, and the blue light in his eyes gradually faded. His face became uncertain, and it was obvious that he was experiencing a fierce struggle in his heart.
At this moment, he was 100% sure that the spiritual eye ability did have the ability to detect invisible space cracks that could not be perceived through spiritual consciousness.
This discovery made him very happy because he did not waste so much precious spiritual liquid in vain in order to prepare the clear spiritual water to clean his eyes.
In this way, his life safety was greatly guaranteed in the Demon Valley.
However, he also knew in his heart that although Ming Qing's spiritual eyes could indeed detect these spatial cracks, excessive use of spiritual power might arouse suspicion from others, which would undoubtedly increase his own risks.
At the same time, the Ming and Qing Spiritual Eyes require a lot of spiritual power. If any unexpected situation occurs during use, it will inevitably attract the attention of others.
Therefore, how to reasonably use the Ming and Qing spiritual eyes became a difficult problem he needed to face.
Chen Yun fell into deep thought, and after a moment, he made a decision. He tapped his storage bag lightly, and a cloak shining with green light immediately appeared in his hand.
This cloak is not an ordinary piece of clothing, but one of the trophies that Chen Yun had obtained in battle. It is a top-level spiritual weapon.
Its main function is to cover the face and prevent others from spying on its true identity.
However, in order to maintain the cloak's effects, the user needs to continuously inject spiritual energy into it, and the difference in cultivation between the observer and the cloak holder cannot be too great.
Chen Yun believed that as long as he put on this cloak, it would be difficult for others to notice the abnormality in his eyes except the Confucian scholar named Zhong and Wei Wuya.
After making preparations, Chen Yun once again examined the slightly blurry space cracks around him, then transformed into a ray of green light and left there silently.
……
In a dense forest, a tall, plain-looking woman was flying through the forest at a low altitude.
Although her appearance is not outstanding, the clear look in her eyes is particularly charming.
During this time, the woman's eyes kept turning around, as if searching for something specific.
When she passed through the dense forest and reached the edge on the other side, she stopped, looking a little confused.
"This doesn't seem to be the place I'm looking for. The mark left by the Ghost Spirit Sect elder did not appear here. Perhaps his destination is somewhere else."
"But why would I find the mark first and then wait for him for a while? Could it be that he has other goals in the Demon Valley?"
The lion head was slightly raised, facing the gray sky, she whispered to herself, confusion flashing in her eyes.
At this moment, she suddenly became alert, immediately restrained her breath, returned to the depths of the forest, and cast several spells in succession to cover her whereabouts. Finally, she hid behind a huge tree, motionless.
Under the woman's gaze, three colorful beams of light came rushing from afar. The speed was not too fast, and one could clearly see three elderly sages controlling the beams of light together.
At this moment, one of the silver-haired old men seemed to sense something. He glanced down and happened to see the place where the woman was hiding, and uttered a sound of surprise.
"Brother Cheng, what happened?"
An old man in a purple robe with a wrinkled face beside him noticed the reaction of the silver-haired old man and immediately asked.
"Nothing special is going on. It's just that there is a female cultivator in the Jindan stage in the forest below. She doesn't seem to want to interact with others."
The silver-haired old man answered calmly.
"This woman is quite cautious. I'm afraid there is something worth exploring in the forest."
The older man guessed secretly.
"Brother Lin, don't be wishful thinking. There are no signs of restrictions in the forest here. There is only a female cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage below. It is normal for her to avoid the three of us old men here. We don't need to meddle in other people's business and search for treasures as soon as possible."
"If we can gain something in the outer valley, that would be the best; otherwise, we can only risk entering the inner valley."
Another old man shrouded in green light spoke in a calm tone.
"Brother Ou is right. We don't need to pay attention to this female cultivator. This place is strange. Even if I can escape very fast, I dare not use my full strength. Searching such a vast outer valley may not be a short-term task. It is better to save time."
Although the purple-robed old man was refuted, he was not dissatisfied. Instead, he smiled and agreed.
The silver-haired old man nodded calmly, and the three of them left through the dense forest without any reluctance.
The woman in the dense forest saw the escaping light disappear, and then she walked out of the dense forest cautiously.
She stared at the direction where the three old men were going, lost in thought, and whispered:
"That silver-haired old man seems to be my fellow disciple from Luoyun Sect. I didn't expect him to come here. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm."
This woman is Zi Ling who disguised herself and went deep into the Demon Valley.
Chen Yun made an agreement with her to let her search for clues about the Lingzhu Fruit in the outer valley first, and then wait for the time to meet him to look for the Lingzhu Fruit.
Although Zi Ling had doubts about this proposal, she knew that this matter had nothing to do with her, so she never asked Chen Yun why he made such arrangements.
At this moment, she did not find any target in the forest. After hesitating for a moment, she drove the escape light again in the direction where the three old men came from.
In another dense forest in the Falling Demon Valley, six Ghost Spirit Sect disciples dressed in black were searching in the forest, including Wang Chan and Yan Ruyan.
A pale old man was suspended in the air, silent.
The leader of the Ghost Spirit Sect and Wang Tiangu and others have all disappeared, and no one knows where they are.
Suddenly, a scream of joy was heard from the forest.
Then, the old man heard a disciple's joyful message: "Found it, it's right there."
The old man's expression changed slightly, his body glowed with black light, and he turned into an extremely fast black light that rushed down.
Upon hearing the news, other disciples followed suit.
In an instant, the old man had reached the top of the disciple's head. After looking around, he asked indifferently, "Are you sure you are here?"
"Elder Zhong, that's right!" The disciple pointed to a tree nearby and answered respectfully. (End of this chapter)
