On a starless and moonless night, there was not the slightest light in the Misty Barren Valley, and most of the place was covered in boundless darkness except for the faint glow of the fire in the far center of the valley.
The night was a bit cold, and the wind was bleak and cool, and as it blew through the valley there were patches of strange tide-like darkness, which was the characteristic mist of this valley.
The valley is so large that if you look at the rolling mountains around it during the day, you can see only the faintly tall shadows, like silent giants standing on the land.
Between the two high mountains to the northwest is the only way to enter and exit this misty barren valley, and beyond the valley, on the same rugged and steep mountain road, a figure walks at this moment.
There was a sudden sense of slaughter in the darkness, and someone in front of the mountain road made a sound, as if whispering a few words. The figure who came paused for a moment, and by the glimmer of light in the night, he could see that the person who was coming was a young man dressed in black.
The young man's face was calm, as if he was not surprised by the sudden obstruction, and after listening to the whispers in the darkness, he replied in a deep voice.
A question and an answer are like passwords, and they are like code words.
Then, the killing intent hidden in the darkness slowly receded, and the young man in black continued to walk forward. However, this section of the mountain road to the entrance of the Misty Barren Valley looked quiet and cold, but it seemed to be extremely strict on this night, and there were as many as three similar interrogations along the way.
The young man in black answered all the way, passed through one by one with a calm expression, and gradually approached the entrance of the valley in the dark night and cold night wind.
I saw that next to the mountain road at the entrance, there was a raised hillock, and several rocks of different sizes were scattered on the hill, and a white figure could be vaguely seen standing there at the top of the hill.
The body of the young man in black paused, and after standing still for a moment, he turned and walked towards the hill.
There are no paths on the hillock, and the weeds are overgrown and slightly undulating in the night breeze. When he was about to reach the top of the hill, the black-clothed young man saw a wooden sign inserted in the soil appear on the ground in front of him, and a strange pattern was carved straight up: there were gods flying into the sky, ghosts howling below, and in the middle part was a huge giant tree standing on top of the sky, connecting the gods and ghosts. It looks like a giant tree pattern with gods and ghosts attached to a large tree.
The eyes of the young man in black swept over the wooden sign, and after a moment of lingering on the picture on it, he looked at the figure in white clothes standing with his hands behind the wooden sign.
In such a dark night, of course, a white suit was very conspicuous, and at this time, it seemed that footsteps were also heard, and the man in white turned around and saw that he was a very handsome man. When he saw the man in black, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said, "You're here, black wolf." β
The black-clothed young man he called the black wolf nodded, walked over, and said at the same time: "Yun Jian, if your father sees you dressed like this, I'm afraid he will talk about you again." β
Yun Jian's face was relaxed and calm, and he said with a smile: "It's okay, tonight's big event is coming, his old man has a lot of things to do in the barren valley, where can he take care of me?"
The black wolf smiled, walked over and stood side by side with the cloud sword, and looked into the distance, only to see that in this piece of night, in addition to the deep slaughter in the misty barren valley behind him, countless mountains in the distance were undulating, although it was not as good as the daytime to see the true face, but it could still be imagined majestic.
Yun Jian suddenly let out a sigh and said, "Black wolf, how many years have you been in the Divine Sect?"
"It's been six years. β
"It's been so long. Yun Jian showed a hint of emotion on his face, and then smiled, "I still remember that when you first came, you were still a teenager, just about the same size as Xiaoqing, and now in a blink of an eye, you have all grown up." β
The black wolf smiled and did not speak.
Yun Jian said again: "By the way, Xiaoqing is also here tonight, maybe it will be here later, do you want to wait for her?"
The black wolf shook his head and said, "The elder ordered me to send the last 'Blood Spirit Crystal' into the valley, it should be used for the 'sΓ©ance spell', but I am afraid that the divine curse will start later, and I should not be able to get out." Let's see you later. β
Yun Jian raised his eyebrows, glanced at the black wolf with a bit of discoloration on his face, and sighed after a while: "Blood Spirit Crystal is such a rare foreign object, and only people like you have the ability to get it, no wonder my father has valued you more than my own son over the years." β
The black wolf glanced up at Yun Jian, frowned, and seemed to want to say something, but Yun Jian immediately laughed and said, "Okay, okay, it's just a joke, what kind of friendship is our brother, can I still doubt you?" β
The black wolf was stunned and said, "Secret?
Yun Jian smiled: "If I say it, is it still a secret? Go quickly, just remember to come and meet people when you go back." β
The black wolf thought for a while, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay." β
With that, he nodded to the cloud sword, turned and strode away, and it didn't take long to watch him walk all the way down the hill and into the valley, disappearing into the deep and boundless darkness.

After the black wolf walked for about a tea time, there was suddenly movement on the mountain road below, and after a while, only to hear a soft sound, a light body flew from below, and turned around lightly and skillfully in mid-air, and landed beside Yun Jian without any difference, but it was a beautiful woman who was as beautiful as a flower.
Yun Jian had a hint of joy on his face when he saw her, but when he saw this woman coming to his side, he frowned, and snorted: "Nonsense! You are not afraid of accidentally stumbling, and it will be too late to regret it." β
The beautiful girl grinned, looking very intimate with Yun Jian, grabbed his arm and smiled: "Big brother is here, what am I afraid of!"
Yun Jian shook his head and smiled bitterly, "How can I have such a heartless girl as you." By the way, the black wolf had just left here and entered the valley. β
The sister in his mouth, that is, this beautiful woman named Yun Xiaoqing, said "ah", glanced at the valley, and then complained to Yun Jian: "Really! Big brother, why didn't you stop him, knowing that I had something to say to him." β
Yun Jian shook his head and said, "It's important. He was carrying the Blood Spirit Crystal to be sent into the 'Great Gara Array' in the valley, and when the 'SΓ©ance Spell' started, he would also have to help his father and other elders, so he really couldn't delay here for too long. β
