After a long and cold winter, everything begins to recover, and the whole continent becomes full of life again.

The Nine Immortals Sect, located at the southernmost tip of this continent, was originally a treasure of feng shui for outstanding people, and at this moment, it is even more like a paradise with hundreds of birds and songs, and a hundred flowers compete for beauty.

Since ancient times, the Nine Immortal Sect has been the top immortal cultivation sect in this continent for thousands of years, and it is also the only super sect that can make the royal family fearful.

It is said that where the Nine Immortals Sect is located, there were nine like-minded immortal cultivators who successfully crossed the catastrophe at the same time, feathered into immortals, far away from the mortal world, and entered the immortal world.

And the name of the sect was simply named after the Nine Immortals, so it spread throughout the continent with the Nine Immortals Sect, and its fame shocked all directions.

Since the establishment of the Nine Immortals Sect, thousands of people will come here every year, although many people do not have the qualifications and talents to cultivate immortals, and they are destined to have no chance to cultivate immortals in this life, but they still come here from thousands of miles away, intending to have the opportunity to see the true face of the immortal cultivators of the Nine Immortals Sect.

For them, even if they take a look at the legendary immortal cultivator from afar, maybe they can get a little immortal qi because of it, and it will be in vain.

Of course, every year, there will be many men, women and children who think they are talented and willing to gamble with their lives to come here and actively participate in the annual month-long pass, once they succeed, they will have the opportunity to stay in the Nine Immortals Sect and become a disciple, and from then on embark on the road of cultivating immortals that others dream of.

The reason why the Nine Immortals Sect's annual pass is life-threatening is because the location of the pass is located in a valley at the foot of the Nine Immortal Sect's mountains that burns all year round.

This valley is called the Valley of the Demon Flame, and as the name suggests, it is not an ordinary flame that burns here all year round, but a magical flame with a magical color.

This kind of magic flame is very strange and unpredictable, and can make those who are in it lose their minds, forget themselves, and even go crazy to harm others and themselves.

Therefore, people with weak self-control and poor self-control will not be able to succeed at all, and even if they barely enter the Demon Flame Valley, it will be difficult to move an inch.

The more rational people retreated early and exited the Demon Flame Valley in time to save their lives, while the obsessed people fell deeper and deeper into it, unable to extricate themselves, and finally died here.

But in the end, the few people who were able to get out of the Demon Flame Valley alive all belonged to the pride of the sky, the existence of dragons and phoenixes among people, so it was logical to enter the Nine Immortals Sect.

Among them, those who are particularly outstanding are also fortunate to become the core disciples of the major elders, and even become the personal disciples of the sect master.

And once he becomes a very rare personal disciple of the sect master of the Nine Immortals Sect, even if the royal family sees it, he has to give three points of courtesy, which is enough to see that the dignity of the personal disciple in the world is comparable to that of a member of the royal family.

It stands to reason that the Demon Flame Valley burns all year round, and it is completely possible to open the level mode all year round, and there is no need to open it only for one month every year.

After all, if it is opened throughout the year, it will definitely be able to recruit more disciples with excellent qualifications and talents for the Nine Immortals Sect.

However, in order to prevent a large number of people who intend to cultivate immortals from dying in vain in the Demon Flame Valley, the sect master of the Nine Immortals Sect chose the month when the flames of the Demon Flame Valley were relatively weakest every year, with the purpose of greatly reducing the mortality rate.

Otherwise, once the Demon Flame Valley is opened at the stage when the other Demon Flames are relatively strong, I am afraid that nine out of ten interlopers will be devoured by the Demon Flames and die tragically in the Demon Flame Valley.

Even the total annihilation of all the trespassers is not alarmist.

At that time, the sect master of the Nine Immortals Sect will also bear the infamy of demons, and it will also go against the original intention of cultivating immortals, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

All of this stems from the characteristics of the flames of the Demon Flame Valley increasing every month, January is the weakest, December is the strongest, and each month is thirty percent higher than the previous month, so choosing to open the breakthrough mode in January every year is the most humane way to select disciples.

However, as the saying goes, there are pros and cons to everything, and once the eleven months in Demon Flame Valley are more and more dangerous, it can also have unexpected special effects.

For example, in the other eleven months of Demon Flame Valley, although the Breakthrough Mode is not open to the public, it is the best place for disciples who have cultivated to a certain realm.

Therefore, starting in February, the Demon Flame Valley has become the stage for the disciples of the Nine Immortal Sect to enter the Nine Immortals Sect to participate in the cultivation and upgrading, and the disciples who are suitable to enter the realm inside also increase in turn every month.

Since the realm of the Nine Immortal Sect's cultivation of immortals happens to be divided into twelve levels, they are, from low to high, they are: foundation building, enlightenment, fusion, heartbeat, golden pill, yuan infant, out-of-body, distraction, integration, cave void, Mahayana, and tribulation.

And these twelve levels from low to high just correspond to the twelve months of the Demon Flame Valley from weak to strong, if the person who can successfully break through in January will naturally enter the foundation building realm, which can be regarded as stepping into the threshold of cultivating immortals, and from then on, the long road of cultivating immortals has truly begun.

The reason why it is said to be long is because in addition to the fact that there are as many as twelve levels in the Immortal Cultivation Realm itself, the cultivation of each realm is divided into three stages, which are called the early stage, the middle stage, and the consummation.

Only disciples who have reached the consummation stage of each realm can be eligible to enter the Demon Flame Valley to participate in the one-month upgrade mode, and each realm often requires several months or even years of cultivation to ascend from the early stage to the middle stage, let alone the consummation stage.

Therefore, many immortal cultivators often spend their lives and are not fortunate enough to enter the highest tribulation realm, and naturally they have no chance to ascend to the immortal realm.

As for January every year, the Demon Flame Valley of the Nine Immortals Sect was crowded with people, and it was very lively.

Except for a few people who really planned to enter the Demon Flame Valley to break through the level, most of them were people who accompanied their family and friends to participate in the level.

If there is a name in the announcement of the new initiation disciples issued by the Nine Immortals Sect after the month-long period is over, it means that the level has been successful, and their family and friends can happily go home.

However, if you don't make it to the announcement, it means that you have failed.

Among these failures, some of them are self-aware, and those who quit the Demon Flame Valley in time are still alive.

Those who are obsessed and lack reason will unfortunately be buried in the Demon Flame Valley, and their bodies will be sent to a mass grave near the entrance of the Demon Flame Valley to be claimed by their family or friends.

When January's Rush mode ends, the Valley of Demonflame will be closed and no outsiders will be able to enter.

Only the disciples of the Nine Immortal Sect who have reached the foundation building consummation realm with the ability to upgrade to the enlightened realm can enter the cultivation, if they can successfully pass the scorching of the demon flame for a month in the next month, and get out of the demon flame valley alive, they can be promoted to the next realm of enlightenment, otherwise they will have to withdraw from the demon flame valley halfway and wait for February next year to try to upgrade again.

And so on, in December at the end of the year, it is the turn of the disciples of the Mahayana Perfection Realm to try to upgrade to the Tribulation Realm.

If you can successfully advance to the realm of the Tribulation, then the disciples who can survive the next challenge to the Heavenly Thunder Bombardment will be able to successfully ascend to the Immortal Realm and become immortal immortals, forever detached from the world, and go to the Immortal Realm to live happily and freely.

Since at this moment, it was already March, and it had already passed the most lively Demon Flame Valley Breakthrough Mode in January, so although the scenery near the entrance of the Demon Flame Valley of the Nine Immortals Sect was beautiful and warm, it was rare to see people who came to play here.

First, this place usually belongs to the forbidden land of the Nine Immortals Sect, and outsiders are not allowed to approach it casually.

Second, the area here is sparsely populated for a hundred miles, there are swarms of wild beasts, and poisonous insects are flying all over the sky, if you come here alone, and you are not a disciple of the Nine Immortals Sect, it will be a very dangerous thing.

Only during the beginning of the Demon Flame Valley Breakthrough Mode in January every year, under the protection of a large number of immortal cultivators of the Nine Immortal Sect, and under the premise of sufficient food and vehicle supplies, ordinary people can survive in this area unharmed for a month.

Otherwise, if they came here in January, they would be expelled by the patrolling Nine Immortals Sect disciples, or they would become the belly of those beasts, or starve to death.

Therefore, over time, except for the disciples of the Nine Immortal Sect who regularly patrolled the area near the entrance of the Demon Flame Valley, there were no strangers, so that those disciples who patrolled all year round were also a little numb, and every time they patrolled, they only went through the motions, and they did not pay much attention to check the surroundings.

Because they know that even if someone dares to sneak in privately, without their expulsion, the other party will retreat and leave sooner rather than later.

Even a small number of people who do not want to die and go deep alone will eventually die a miserable death, as can be seen from the occasional white bones in the grass.

However, there are still a few people in this world who are brave and dare to break into this forbidden place of death alone.

No, not long after a group of patrolling disciples passed, a beautiful sixteen-year-old girl poked her head out of the grass, and after glancing at the back of the patrol disciples who had disappeared from the distance with strange eyes, the corners of her mouth twitched disdainfully, and she stood up proudly.

Obviously, he didn't take those patrol disciples seriously.

The girl wore a lean camel-colored leather hunting suit, a black bow and arrows on her back, and a small, delicate bronze scimitar at her waist.

Judging from the craftsmanship of the bow and arrows and scimitars, these two weapons are definitely from famous masters and are very valuable.

There is also an intricately carved pattern in the prominent position of the bow and arrows and scimitars, to be exact, if you look closely, you can vaguely see that this intricate and ornate pattern is actually an ancient character - "dragon".

There is also a crystal clear jade pendant hanging on the girl's white neck, the color of the jade pendant is very perfect, and it is an ancestral treasure at a glance, a superior treasure.

Under the reflection of the sun, you can faintly see a colorful "Fei" character looming in the middle of the jade pendant, which also invisibly adds a bit of elegance to this already pure and beautiful girl.

Although this girl looks like she has walked for a long time at this moment, her forehead is drenched in sweat, and she feels like she is in the dust, but she can't hide her innate noble temperament, which is a special temperament that only Miss Qianjin, who grew up in a big family from childhood to adulthood, has.

And she is the eldest lady of the General's Mansion who came from the imperial city thousands of miles away - Long Fei, her father is Long Xiaotian, a famous general in the court.

She is the only daughter of General Long, and she is also the jewel of the Dragon Mansion's treasure.

The reason why she came to the forbidden place of death near the Valley of Demon Flames alone was from three months ago......
