Sorrowful Valley, located hundreds of miles north of Tianshui City, although it is a valley, there is no life. There was no green vegetation on the black hills, even the soil on the ground was black, and there were no birds and insects in the valley, and the whole valley was filled with a kind of dead air, as if it had sunk into black.

Legend has it that in the dark valley, there are occasional human miserable howls, accompanied by the roar of beasts, which may be the origin of the name of the Valley of Sorrow.

It is rumored that this is a place of death, abandoned by the gods, where there is no life, and if you enter this valley, whether human or beast, you will die here.

In the past, there were many cultivators who didn't believe it, so they formed a team to go, but none of them could come out.

Li Fugui and Starling are now part of this expedition, and a man and a beast are looking at the valley at the entrance.

Li Fugui was dressed in black, his hair was scattered behind him, and a black starling with bright eyes stood on his left shoulder.

At the entrance to the rocky valley, a huge stone monument stands in the middle, the stone monument looks a little old, although it has withstood the wind and sun for a long time, but there is not a trace of moss.

Li Fugui walked up and carefully read the words on the stone tablet. It basically said that there was a miasma in the valley, and mortals and cultivators below the emperor level were not allowed to enter, and cultivators above the emperor level were cautious when entering, and it also emphasized that there were no treasures inside, and warned those who came.

This place was seen by Li Fugui in an ancient book, which originally did not attract Li Fugui's attention at first, but later in another ancient book, Li Fugui found that this place seemed to be related to a certain branch of Ziyuan, although the ancient book did not record the detailed content, but the geographical location was recorded.

Li Fugui compared the contents of the two ancient books and determined that the place written in the book was the Valley of Grief and Sorrow, so after sending Jiang Tianci to the Shifting Flower Palace, he and the starling planned to come here to find out.

The task released by Proton is to find the secret realm left by Ziyuan, and finally find a place that may be related to Ziyuan, and Li Fugui will certainly not let it go.

And according to the few tasks released by Proton, Li Fugui deduced that Proton seemed to be guiding himself to help him complete some tasks.

Although I don't know what the specific mission of Proton is, it must be related to the destruction of Zi Yuan, so it will definitely not be wrong to explore those places related to Zi Yuan by yourself.

Li Fugui didn't tell anyone about the existence of protons, including starlings, but just told starlings that he needed to find clues about Ziyuan. Starling didn't ask, just said: "As long as you can enhance your strength, it doesn't matter where you go." ”

Li Fugui stood next to the stone tablet and said to the starling, "Are you sure you want to go in?"

The starling didn't speak, just looked into the valley.

Li Fugui continued: "Actually, you don't need to accompany me in, emperor-level masters may fall if they enter." ”

Starling still looked ahead.

"Or I'd better go in by myself, and if anything goes wrong, I'll quit immediately. ”

The starling turned his head and looked at Li Fugui impatiently, and said, "What do you say, hurry up." ”

Li Fugui looked embarrassed, sneered, and walked inside.

The valley was very humid, the walls on both sides were very smooth, and only at noon did the sun shine in the whole valley, and the rest of the time the whole valley was shrouded in gray mist.

Li Fugui took out two enhanced versions of the antidote pill, handed one to the starling and said: "Put it in your mouth, don't swallow it, when the pill starts to be bitter, it means that the medicinal power is about to run out, tell me in advance, give you a new antidote pill." ”

The man and beast with the antidote pill in his mouth began to enter the mist, and the visibility inside was very low, and even his divine sense was limited to ten meters, and he was completely unable to see the whole of the valley.

Li Fugui walked very slowly, he was used to using his divine sense to probe his surroundings, and he was very uncomfortable in this kind of place where his divine sense was limited, and he always felt that there would be something in a place where he couldn't see, intending to attack him.

The starling's eyes kept scanning the surroundings, and the black body emitted a faint golden light, which was the manifestation of the starling being in a state of battle, and the faint golden light was the power of the starling's true fire.

Starling has the blood of the Golden Crow clan, and the true fire of the sun of the Golden Crow clan is known as the first magic weapon to eliminate evil and filth. Therefore, the miasma in the mist, when it enters within one meter of the starling, will be evaporated by the power of the true fire released by the starling.

"Ah......h

"Roaring ......"

After walking half a pillar of incense in the valley, Li Fugui heard the miserable scream, although he had known that such a sound would come, but when he heard it with his own ears, he still felt a chill down his spine, and a layer of white sweat appeared.

He continued to walk in for half a pillar of incense, and the visibility became lower and lower, and his divine consciousness could only spread out about five meters. The road beneath his feet also began to slope downward, as if he was going to hell in the future.

Thin white bones began to appear on the road, which should be the same people who had come in before, some of the bones were embedded in the dirt, and some were exposed.

Li Fugui's spiritual power surged in the palm of his hand, and then turned into a fireball, flying on top of the dry bones, and in a few breaths, the dry bones turned into a pile of ashes.

Li Fugui looked at the ashes scattered in the wind, and said lightly: "Dust to dust, dust to dust." ”

After doing all this, Li Fugui continued to move forward, turning all the white bones he encountered into ashes along the way.

After walking a short distance, Li Fugui looked at the road under his feet and muttered to himself: "It seems that no one has come in for a long time, and everyone's corpses have turned into white bones, and the time must not be short." ”

Starling shook his head and said solemnly: "No, I feel a vague breath, it should have been left in the last few days, and someone should have been here a few days ago." ”

Li Fugui frowned, although he didn't find any traces, but the perception of demon beasts was very accurate, so he believed what the starling said.

Li Fugui muttered, "This place has already been confirmed by high-level cultivators, there are no treasures at all, why did this person enter here? Could it be that it is also to find out the news of Ziyuan?"

Thinking of this, Li Fugui felt a little uneasy, took out the big knife puppet, followed his right, and then continued to walk down.

There were more and more dry bones on the road, at first there were only the white bones of mortals, and gradually the bones of cultivators began to appear, but not only did there be no magic weapon next to these bones, but there were no storage bags next to these bones.

Li Fugui said lightly: "The relics of these people must have been taken away by those who went further, and they didn't even let go of the things of the dead, which is really hateful." ”

In fact, Li Fugui's inner reading is, why don't you leave me some, the master is so poor that he has to be pants now. He is not averse to this kind of tomb robbery, and making the best use of things is his value.

When Li Fugui walked in for half an hour, at this time, he could no longer see the ground clearly with his eyes alone, and his divine sense could only spread out by one meter, but fortunately, with the power of starling's true fire, the miasma and poisonous gas never affected them.

Li Fugui had to put away the puppet, in this place the divine sense has no way to manipulate the puppet, if there is really a big war with people, the puppet will not only not be able to help, but may also drag himself down.

After all, Li Fugui only had three puppets left, each of which was extremely precious to him, and he didn't want to keep the puppets here.

Take out the small silver crossbow, wind it and hold it tightly in your hand.

At this moment, Li Fugui felt that the antidote pill in his mouth began to exude a faint bitter taste. Li Fugui said in his heart, sure enough, and then took out two more antidote pills, and replaced the antidote pills in his mouth with the starling brother.

Li Fugui walked forward cautiously, and said: "When you first enter the valley, there should be no poisonous gas, and then the poisonous gas is slowly produced, the further you go inside, the more toxic the poisonous gas should be, if there is no antidote pill, these poisonous gases cannot be found at all, and those cultivators should just die under this poisonous gas without knowing it." ”

Starling is very rare without a poisonous tongue, nodded cautiously, and said: "There are no scars on their bones at all, which means that they definitely did not die in battle, and only this explanation can make sense." ”

Li Fugui wanted to continue talking, but at this time, something seemed to hit him in the back of the heart and hit the robe on top of the robe. On top of the robe, the flow of spiritual power defused the attack, and Li Fugui did not receive any damage.

This black robe is not a heaven-level spiritual weapon, and without the urging of the master, it will automatically protect the master.

Li Fugui was shocked, quickly turned around, quickly checked the fog behind him, and raised the small crossbow in his hand, if anything was wrong, the crossbow arrow would definitely be shot out at the first time.

What shocked Li Fugui was that there was nothing behind him, only two lines of footprints along the way.

Li Fugui's brows furrowed even tighter, as the so-called, the unknown is the most terrifying, if you know what the opponent is, you may still have the courage to fight, if you don't even know what the opponent is, it will only amplify your fear, maybe before the war, you have already lost.

Li Fugui stared at the mist and asked, "Do you see what it is?"

Starling shook his head and said with the same solemnity: "No, I didn't see anything." ”

Swallowing his saliva, Li Fugui said to the starling: "I look at the front, you look at the back." ”

After speaking, he turned around and continued to walk forward, while the starling looked at Li Fugui's back obediently, and his two eyes kept scanning around, hoping to find the enemy.

Li Fugui took the initiative to stimulate the defensive function of the black gown, and streams of spiritual power circulated on the gown, emitting a faint light.

Tightening his grip on the small crossbow in his hand, Li Fugui didn't care about the white bones he encountered, and walked forward step by step.

There were more and more white bones on the ground, and later Li Fugui could only step on the white bones in order to continue to move forward. Stepping on the white bones, the bones creaked and crunched, accompanied by the occasional mournful sound, constantly reverberated in this valley.

Li Fugui's palms were already sweating, although the enemy did not strike again, but this made him even more nervous, and the whole person was like a bow of the full moon, in a tense state at any time.

Just when Li Fugui walked a few hundred meters inside, the starling suddenly looked to the right and shouted in a low voice: "It's here." ”

The small crossbow in Li Fugui's hand was quickly aimed at his left, and he saw a condensed gray mist, which quickly attacked him. Li Fugui didn't hesitate, he suddenly pressed the trigger, and the spiritual power crossbow arrow collided with the gray mist in the blink of an eye.
