Chapter 90: The Valley of Corpses and Souls

Within two days, Ling Jing took a boat to Puyang, but although this Puyang was big, he didn't have a good place to go for a while, so he first found a place to stay in the city.

Previously, Ping Yizhi had explained to him that the Poison Sect had been making trouble in the martial arts at the beginning since it split out, but then it was suppressed by various factions and almost suffered a catastrophe, and then the Poison Sect has been living in the East Hiding Province, and after many years, the people in the rivers and lakes have gradually forgotten about this matter, which has established a new foundation in the Puyang area.

However, the people of the Poison Sect, whether it is martial arts or style of acting, are very different from the Medical Sect, Ping Yizhi can make a great reputation in the rivers and lakes, although the reputation is mixed, but there is no need to care about the identity of the successor of the Medical Sect, but he is a low-key person, so he did not deliberately publicize it.

But in the case of the Poison Sect, as long as he is still cultivating the martial arts on the "Green Capsule Corpse Sutra", it is impossible to make the name of the Poison Sect in a grand manner.

Therefore, although the Poison Sect has already had a foundation in Puyang, it does not dare to publicize the origin of its sect to the outside world, and now in Puyang, it somehow has the title of "Corpse Soul Valley".

The destination of Ling Jing's trip is naturally this "Corpse Soul Valley", firstly, to restrain the "Hidden Dragon Sword Qi", it is not enough to have the "Heavenly Doctor Pulse Interception Hand", this "Green Capsule Corpse Sutra" must also be obtained, and secondly, the system has also released a task, and the rewards are quite rich, as long as he can complete this task, and then complete the second-level side quest last time, the talent points obtained will be enough to open the third layer of the talent tree.

With his current strength, if it is not a superior martial art, even if he learns it, it is not very useful, and the "Intermediate Sword Drawing Technique" has already been added to the full level, if he wants to improve further, he can only do it when the third layer of talent tree is opened.

There is also the level of martial arts such as light skills, fists and feet on his body now, which is too far from his current strength, and it is time to update it.

Therefore, he also has great expectations for this "Corpse Soul Valley" party, as long as this task is completed, and then he finds a peerless level internal skill, then the third layer of talent tree can be opened, and at that time, it is the time for his strength to be comprehensively improved.

It's just that he didn't dare to be careless in the slightest in this operation, after all, before he came, Ping Yizhi had told him many times that he must be careful of the people of the Poison Sect, the people of this sect have used poison to the point of being supernatural, even if the martial arts are high, for this kind of method, it is still a little unguardable.

Thinking of Ping Yizhi's instructions, Ling Jing naturally didn't dare to slack off, not to mention, "knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, and not being defeated in a hundred battles", he would not act rashly until he figured out the current strength of the Poison Sect.

At that moment, he first rested in the city for a while, and then inquired about the situation of the "Corpse Soul Valley" in the city, but it was strange to say that there were many people in the rivers and lakes in the city, but all the people who were asked by him, as soon as they heard the word "Corpse Soul Valley", their faces immediately changed greatly, and they shook their heads, and they refused to say a few more words even if they died, and finally left him in a hurry.

Ling Jing encountered this situation several times in a row, and he couldn't help but wonder a little, looking at the reactions of these people, it seemed that the "Corpse Soul Valley" was like a flood beast in this generation, and these people didn't even dare to mention it.

It's just that the more this is the case, the more curious he becomes about this poisonous sect, a sect that was almost wiped out can make these Jianghu people who lick blood on the tip of the knife so afraid, it seems that this poisonous sect is really amazing.

Later, through side knocks, Ling Jing finally got some information, this "Corpse Soul Valley" is located in the northeast of Puyang, and the surrounding area is inaccessible, it is rumored that this valley is full of poisons, except for dead corpses and poisons, there is no living thing to be found, so the rivers and lakes in this area will call it "Corpse Soul Valley".

And in the mouths of these people in the rivers and lakes, this "Corpse Soul Valley" is definitely in and out, and I don't know how many masters have died in it over the years.

But who is the valley owner in it, whether it is a man or a woman, and how old it is, these people don't know anything, but they just know that that place is definitely the most dangerous place in Puyang, in short, no one should enter.

Ling Jing didn't get much information, although everyone said that this "Corpse Soul Valley" was extremely dangerous, but no one knew what the martial arts of the people inside were, which made him feel quite helpless.

It is said that there are many chivalrous warriors in the Heluo area, but now it seems that the masters in the Puyang area are really disappointing, and after so long, no one knows the depth of this poison sect.

It's just that there is only so much information he gets, and he knows that it is useless to continue to wait, so he made up his mind, and the second day he went to the "Corpse Soul Valley" to find out the truth, anyway, he has no friendship with this poisonous sect, and this "Green Capsule Corpse Sutra" must be taken in his hands no matter how strong it is or what method it is.

The second day Ling Jing got up early in the morning, and after eating, he went out of the inn, all the way to the north of the city, not long after, suddenly felt that someone behind him grabbed his shirt, turned his head and saw a dirty little beggar looking at him.

"Big brother, someone asked me to give this to you." The little beggar handed over a letter, and then disappeared into the crowd with a puff of smoke.

Ling Jing looked at the direction in which the little beggar disappeared, and never stopped it, this kind of letter was the third time he had received, and he knew that this little beggar was just an errand runner, and what could he know, even if he asked most of the questions, it was in vain.

However, although the other party has been hiding his head and tail, he has always been able to catch his whereabouts, which makes him a little jealous. He has only been in Puyang for two days, but he was quickly known by the other party, but I am afraid that this force is not simple.

Ling Jing pondered in his heart for a moment, and then pulled out the letter, only to see that there were only three words left on the letter: "It needs blood." ”

"Need blood?" These three words are taken from the "Book of Changes" hexagram, which means that they are deeply involved in blood, and Ling Jing still doesn't understand the meaning of these three words when he looks at them.

The first letter warned him of the impending disaster, but he never knew where the disaster came from, and finally went straight to Ping Yizhi's residence, and the second letter warned him that it was not good to go out and that he would encounter great danger, but he was now in Puyang.

And this third letter tells him directly that he is in trouble, and that something has begun to happen, but he has no idea.

Ling Jing didn't know what the person who sent the letter was doing, and he didn't know what the purpose of these letters was, but had the disaster finally begun?

He looked at the pedestrians on the street, his eyes constantly passing over the people next to him, and said to himself, "Is it finally started?" But I've been waiting for a long time. ”

An inexplicable smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he went straight out of the north gate.

After leaving the north gate, Ling Jing went to the official road in the northeast direction, not far away, turned into a small road, there were almost no pedestrians on the road, it was silent, and after passing through two mountain roads, he had already arrived at a deep place.

Ling Jing stood quietly outside the "Corpse Soul Valley", his body fell on a tall ancient tree, only to see that the valley mouth of this "Corpse Soul Valley" was extremely narrow, the outside of the valley was very quiet, and there were trees all around, which was not surprising.

It's just that there doesn't seem to be even a sound in this valley, just a valley mouth apart, as if there are two worlds, this kind of strange scene, but it is quite weird.

The nicknames of this "Corpse Soul Valley" are all called out by people on the rivers and lakes, so there are no stone tablets or other signs in this valley, just a deep and narrow valley mouth, which looks lifeless.

Ling Jing didn't stay in the valley for too long, after all, he came to get the "Green Capsule Corpse Sutra" on this trip, and sooner or later he would have to deal with the people in the valley.

The "Yanyu" guqin was carried on his back, but the "Emperor Dragon Ancient Sword" had been unsheathed, although the "Hidden Dragon Sword Qi" combined with the "Heavenly Doctor Pulse Interception Hand" and the sound of the qin, the power exerted was very good, but his strongest was swordsmanship after all, and now that he had arrived in this "Corpse Soul Valley", he did not dare to have the slightest support.

At this time, I saw him lightly vertical, and his body had fallen into the valley like a floating leaf.

As soon as he entered this valley, Ling Jing suddenly felt a sense of dead silence, and a winding path led straight to the depths of the valley floor, with many bewitching flowers and rattans planted on both sides, but the strange thing was that there was not even a trace of sound in this valley, and it seemed that except for these demonic plants, there was already extinction.

Ling Jing couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, a person who could survive in this environment was definitely a madman.

It's just that since he came in, it seems that no one in this valley has come out to stop him, but it has made him more cautious in his heart, this "Corpse Soul Valley" has a lot of abnormalities, and he doesn't believe that he will find it all the way to the inside.

At the moment, he walked forward slowly with the "Emperor Dragon Ancient Sword", and after taking a few steps, he heard the sound of "hissing" constantly coming from all around, and then there were such sounds coming from all directions, one after another, which sounded a little numb to people's scalps.

Ling Jing's heart froze, and he looked around with his sword, but he saw that he couldn't see anything else except those plants and flowers around him, but as the "hiss" sound got closer and closer, his heart couldn't help but tighten.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of a recorder in the valley, which was very low at first, almost inaudible, and then became very rapid, and continued to echo in the valley like a storm.

The sound of the flute continued to echo in the valley, and Ling Jing couldn't tell where the flute came from for a while, but with the rhythm of the flute, the "hissing" sound seemed to become more and more dense, constantly surrounding him from all directions.

"Huh!"

A green light suddenly flashed on Ling Jing's left side, but it was a rattan covered with spikes that hit him directly towards his waist.
