Chapter 384: Desperate Valley
After Ye Mu said goodbye to Tianyao, he headed towards the Absolute Sand District, which was also dozens of miles away from the territory of the Sky Eagle Clan.
"Sure enough, the wind and sand can't spread here, it's a strange sight......"
Looking at the wind and sand rolling wildly, these wind and sand seemed to be blocked by some invisible barrier before coming to the sand area, and the sand formed a clear dividing line on the ground.
Walking slowly into the sand area, there is no wind and sand invasion here, there is no scorching heat, it seems to be very calm, but it is calm and frightening.
Ye Mu was like walking on a plain, looking for the gate of wind and sand that Ji Junyan said, which was the gateway to the Valley of Despair.
The sand area was much larger than Ye Mu thought, and after looking for a day, he didn't find the so-called Gate of Wind and Sand.
"Where the hell is it?"
At night, Ye Mu stood leaning on his sword, his brows furrowed, the gate of wind and sand that Ji Junyan said should be easy to find, but it has been a day, but he has not found it.
"There should be any other mysteries...... Ye Mu lowered his head, lightly stomped on the ground under his feet, and thought.
Why the wind and sand can't invade the sand area is very strange, Ye Mu no longer blindly searched, but calmed down and thought.
Until dawn, Ye Mu still didn't get an answer, and at this time, the sunlight on the horizon made Ye Mu notice a little strange.
When the light hit the sand area, it seemed to be refracted, allowing Ye Mu to find a wrinkled point.
"Is it an illusion?"
A conjecture appeared in Ye Mu's mind, and the Qinglu Sword trembled, slashing towards the fold and slashing with a sword.
"Ding!"
Sure enough, as Ye Mu expected, there was a collision, as if a mirror was broken, and the space suddenly changed the scene, and a circular portal appeared.
The portal presented a whirlpool of yellow sand, and Ye Mu looked at it intently: "Is this the gate of wind and sand?"
Without hesitation, Edgeworth flew and rushed into the Gate of Wind and Sand, without the slightest hindrance, Ye Mu came to a completely unfamiliar place.
In fact, there is not only one so-called Wind and Sand Gate, but there are many, and in the Absolute Sand area, there are Wind Sand Gates where there are spatial folds, and of course these different Wind and Sand Gates may lead to different places.
The place that Ye Mu arrived at was not the depths of the Desperate Valley, but it was not the periphery, it was in a central position.
Stabilizing his body and looking around, Ye Mu found that the scenery of this Desperate Valley was quite beautiful, compared to the Yuqiong Fairyland.
There were all kinds of pebbles scattered under his feet, and there was a cool feeling around him, which made the heat that Ye Mu brought from the desert dissipate instantly.
It looked like a comfortable place, but Ye Mu was vigilant, he hadn't forgotten what Ji Junyan had said, and Tianyao had also said that the Valley of Desperation was an extremely dangerous place.
With the Qinglan Sword suspended beside him, holding the Qinglu Sword in his right hand, Ye Mu cautiously crossed the stone road and came to a small stream.
Looking at the young appearance reflected in the water, Ye Mu unconsciously reached out and touched his face, and muttered: "So many years have passed in a blink of an eye......
Ye Mu washed his face, crossed the stream, and walked towards the woods in front of him, but he didn't know that a pair of red eyes were staring at him.
When Ye Mu walked away, a deep voice sounded beside the stream: "Another sacrifice is here...... Slip ......"
In addition to the environment, the dangers in the Valley of Desperation are of course poisonous smoke and phantom arrays, as well as the attacks of mysterious beasts.
Ye Mu had naturally understood this, and what he was worried about was the most powerful existence in the Desperate Valley, and even Ji Junyan talked about the existence that changed color.
"This shouldn't be the center of the Desperate Valley, and that powerful existence shouldn't trouble me!" Ye Mu's mentality was very good, and he kept hurrying, constantly sensing the location of the sword technique.
The Desperate Valley is not like the Jade Qiong Fairyland, not like the Boundless Tomb, nor like the Yin Bamboo Forest, there is a difference between day and day, and it seems to have the same time as the Tianxuan Continent.
At night, Ye Mu chose a towering tree to rest, after all, it is much more dangerous at night than during the day, and it is still not suitable for exploration.
On the treetop branches, Ye Mu sat cross-legged, a thunder flame blood python fruit in the lower abdomen, and a stream of pure energy spread out in Ye Mu's body, making the Xuan Qi boil.
"I'm going to break through the ......"
Ye Mu was overjoyed, but he still slowly suppressed the restless Xuan Qi in his body and slowly absorbed the energy, because this place was not suitable for breakthroughs.
There was no danger coming this night, but Ye Mu always felt a little uneasy, but the top priority was to find a place to break through to the middle of the Venerable Realm.
As soon as the morning dawned, Ye Mu spread his soul power and found a valley, although the valley was not deep, it was still possible to dig a cave in the mountain wall.
After being busy for half an hour, a simple and rough cave was ready, and Ye Mu couldn't wait to enter it and put a ban on it at the entrance of the cave.
Ye Mu did not enter the cultivation state, but took out the painting of the Sword Master, dug a small hole at the top of the cave, and hid the painting inside.
Then the figure moved, burrowed into the painting, looking at the familiar peach tree, Ye Mu smiled knowingly, and a verdant green wood fairy vine appeared.
Ye Mu had actually planned to plant the Aoki Immortal Vine in the painting for a long time, but he never did it, and today he could transplant it here with a breakthrough.
found a place to plant the Aoki Immortal Vine, as well as those ordinary flowers and plants, and Ye Mu sat cross-legged under the Aoki Immortal Vine.
The moment Ye Mu slowly released the suppressed Xuan Qi in his body, it was like a galloping tiger and a wild horse on the loose, roaring.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
It seemed that a low roar was heard, and a muffled snort sounded in Ye Mu's body, and the torrent of Xuan Qi spontaneously impacted that layer of barrier without Ye Mu's guidance.
"Knock...... Knock ......"
Again and again, the barrier in the middle of the Venerable Realm was far less solid than when it broke through the Venerable Realm, and in just one day, it was loosened.
The flow of time in the painting is slower than that of the outside world, and it took Ye Mu three days for that barrier to be completely destroyed, and at the same time, a powerful aura swept out of Ye Mu's body.
This breath was emitted quickly, and it was collected quickly, Ye Mu opened his eyes, lowered his head and clenched his fists, feeling the abundant strength of his whole body, and muttered: "Is this the mid-stage realm of the Venerable Realm, it is really more than a little stronger than the early stage of the Venerable Realm!"
In the two days that Ye Mu broke through, outside the valley, a group of red-pupiled two-headed monsters were surrounded.
These monsters resemble humans in every way, except for their two heads.
Ye Mu came out of the painting, although the prohibition at the entrance of the cave was intact, but a strange aura seemed to surround this place intentionally or unintentionally.
"That's ......"
Ye Mu squatted at the entrance of the cave, looked out from the crack in the stone, and found that a hundred meters away from the entrance of the cave, there were more than a dozen strange creatures with two heads and human bodies slowly approaching here.
"What the hell is this?...... there are two heads" Ye Mu frowned slightly, but these strange creatures didn't seem to be strong.
"The strongest is only the strength of the peak of the Transformation Realm, and this Desperate Valley is really strange......"
Ye Mu removed the prohibition, his body moved, as fast as lightning, the Dao sword light flickered, and the dozen or so two-headed strange creatures were all killed, and the sword qi was still all around them.
The tip of the sword picked open a corpse and found that he had a half-foot-sized eye on his chest, which had also drooped down his eyelids and turned gray.
"What's the matter at this time?" there was an eye on his chest...... Ye Mu pursed his lips, and suddenly he slashed at a pile of rocks a hundred meters away.
"Boom ......"
A black figure was like a ghost, and it disappeared from view in a few flashes, Ye Mu did not pursue, because the speed of the black shadow was very fast, even he might not be able to catch up.
Moreover, this is the Valley of Desperation, and you can't chase it indiscriminately, and once you accidentally enter some dangerous area, it will be difficult to do.
"These strange creatures were sent by the black shadow just now?" Ye Mu muttered as he looked at the direction in which the black shadow disappeared.
The Qingluo sword was put into the sheath, and Ye Mu sighed lightly: "It seems that I have been targeted by something......
No longer staying, Ye Mu's figure moved towards the distant jungle, and above the valley, a black figure looked at the direction where Ye Mu disappeared, revealing a pair of red pupils, opening the row of sharp teeth, and said in a low voice: "Jie Ji...... Slip ...... This sacrifice seems to be very good......"
The gray tongue licked the fangs, which made people's heartstrings intensify when they saw it, and a strange aura appeared, and the black shadow moved, and fled in the direction where Ye Mu disappeared.
Ye Mu came to a forest full of green trees, according to what Ji Junyan said, as long as he crossed a red river, he would enter the central area of the Desperate Valley.
And so far, Ye Mu has neither felt the breath of the Imperial Sword Technique, nor has he discovered the red river.
And now he is being targeted by something, which makes Ye Mu a little irritable, but although the speed of the black shadow is very fast, his strength is not necessarily stronger than Ye Mu.
In the woods, Ye Mu walked more than a dozen steps before he found that something was wrong, his head was a little dizzy, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly held his breath.
The soul power dispersed, only to find that there was an invisible gas in the woods, similar to smoke, inhaling the mouth and nose would make people dizzy, unable to move, and slow to react.
At this time, a sound of breaking wind came, Ye Mu didn't think about it, the Qingluo sword came out of its sheath, and it was slashed with a sword.
"Ding!"
The cyan sword light was resisted, and the black shadow also fell on a big tree, and a rude laughter came: "Hum hum...... You're really good!"
Ye Mu raised his eyes and couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and murmured, "It's you!"
This black shadow was the person who was discovered by Ye Mu in the valley before, just now he wanted to take advantage of Ye Mu's dizziness to sneak attack, but he didn't expect Ye Mu to react so quickly.
"What the hell are you?" Ye Mu stared at the black shadow and asked loudly.
The black shadow smiled, revealing his true face, and beneath the black robe was a frighteningly pale face, with a twelve-angular circular mark on his eyebrows.
It looked like the emblem of what kind of ethnic group, his neck was covered with blood-colored lines, it was very terrifying, and a mouthful of fangs was exposed between words, Ye Mu was very puzzled about what he was.
In terms of appearance, it is no different from a human being, but there are many differences, Ye Mu's soul power is scattered, and when he perceives it, he is not a mysterious beast.
"It seems that there are still many creatures in the Tianxuan Continent that I don't understand!" Ye Mu sighed in his heart and said helplessly.
The black shadow bared its fangs and said with a smile: "Human, you came here to send sacrifices to my clan......
"Sacrifice?" Ye Mu was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "I don't care what race you are, master, I still have something to do, but I don't have time to accompany you to talk nonsense here!"
A cyan sword light flashed, and a sword containing the power of a powerful sword was slashed out, the speed was extremely fast, this sword was very abrupt, even if it was impossible to dodge at the speed of a black shadow.
The black shadow didn't seem to want to dodge, and he jerked open the clothes on his chest, revealing a red pupil.
"Buzz ......"
A dazzling red light suddenly burst out from the red pupils, enveloping Ye Mu's sword light, and then the sword light was completely decomposed.
