This valley originally had a name, but after Chen Man lived here, it was gone.

According to the information that Lu Mingheng knew, before it was occupied by Chen Man, no one lived here for a long time, and it was only a third-order spiritual vein.

It stands to reason that some masters of the third-order spiritual vein must not be able to look down on it, but at least for ordinary forces and monks, it is also a very good territory, and it should not be occupied by no one.

But the aura here is unusual, full of very strange power, it does not belong to the ordinary Five Elements aura at all, and normal monks have no way to cultivate here. It's like the Qi refining period, let alone cultivation here, if you stay a little longer, you will be soaked in the body by this strange aura, and you will die.

And even if it is a foundation building or even an enlightening monk, it may not be a problem to stay here, but if you practice, there is also a danger of violent death.

The strange aura attribute here has of course attracted a lot of people's attention. Even some Jindan monks have explored this place.

Nothing.

Except for the strange aura that permeates here, it is like a most ordinary valley, and there are no living creatures in it, whether it is plants or animals, not even insects that can be seen everywhere in this valley.

At the same time, people have not been able to find anything like treasures, rare materials, etc. here.

In that case, it can only be done.

In the end, the human monks could only be sure that because of the special aura of heaven and earth, a harmful aura had been produced here, and there was nothing else of value.

Slowly, no one paid attention to this place anymore, and occasionally some undead explorers came over, either killed by this strange aura, or found nothing, and finally had to leave in disgrace.

This situation was not verified many years ago, when Chen Man found this place.

At that time, he was not too famous, and he was just an ordinary casual cultivator.

At the moment, in the public information about Chen Man, it is said that he is the Wood and Water Twin Spirit Root, but according to the information Lu Mingheng has collected over the years, it is very likely that this is a false information, I don't know who released it, but it is not true.

When Chen Man was back then, he should have been a single spiritual root cultivator, what kind of spiritual root it was, Lu Mingheng didn't find out, but it must be a very rare and special spiritual root, so that Chen Man, who was born in a casual cultivation back then, couldn't find any exercises suitable for his cultivation at all, so he wasted a long time.

In the intelligence collected by Ming Heng, it is shown that Chen Man has taken refuge in many forces of Wei in his early career. He speculated that Chen Man was hoping to find a way to obtain the exercises suitable for his spiritual root cultivation among the various forces.

But apparently, he didn't get what he wanted, and at the age of nearly sixty, he barely managed to complete the foundation building—which was quite a slow pace for a single spirit root monk.

But when Chen Man came to this strange valley, everything became different.

He made it his lair—and indeed he was the only one who could come and go freely without being affected by that strange aura.

Since then, Chen Man's cultivation progress has improved by leaps and bounds, as if he has opened the template of the protagonist of the waste wood flow, but in less than thirty years, he became a monk of Qiming, and then at the age of one hundred and fifty, he was promoted to Jindan.

Of course, it is not that no one has spied on his adventures in the middle, but the final result is that those who peep will either give up or be finished, Chen Man not only survived, but also broke out of the name of 'ghost-faced god', and became a guest of the Wei court, and finally advanced to the level of Yuanying.

Later, the strength of the aura in this valley changed from the original level of only the third order to the strength equivalent to the fifth order of the spiritual vein—but the intensity, the range did not expand.

After collecting this information, Lu Mingheng naturally made a reasonable guess based on this information: the unknown rare spiritual root possessed by Chen Man should belong to the same kind as the original spiritual energy in this valley. Even, there should be some kind of inheritance here that specifically refers to this unknown aura, and it was obtained by Chen Man.

In the midst of such a great opportunity, Chen Man embarked on his own road to prosperity.

Moreover, this place has become the most suitable place for Chen Man's cultivation. And after people became Jin Dan, and even later became the Yuan Infant level, no one dared to say anything more, so they could only let this great monk with a strange personality, strange abilities, and a very powerful stay here quietly.

Ordinary people, etc., did not dare to enter the confines of the valley.

It's not that Chen Man doesn't have any words that are not allowed, he has never said such things. But after the concentration of the spiritual energy in the valley rose to the fifth order, even if it was an ordinary Jindan monk, when he entered it, he would be injured by the dense and strange spiritual energy everywhere. Generally speaking, people who are not specially invited will not find their way into this valley. If there is really such a person, then there is generally no need for Chen Man to make a special move or anything, the natural aura alone is enough to kill the daredevils here.

Lu Mingheng, who came to the outskirts of the valley, did not bring any subordinates.

As the leader of the Jinyi Wei spies lurking in the Wei Kingdom, he can mobilize some manpower, of course. However, the masters in the ordinary sense of the word are only the level of building the foundation, but what is the use of the foundation building monks coming here?

Even, a lot of people doesn't help.

Of course, he did not dare to approach or even enter the valley rashly. That strange aura, which was equivalent to the concentration of the fifth-order spiritual vein, was rumored to be miraculous in some intelligence, and Lu Mingheng didn't dare to try it himself.

Moreover, although he might be able to stay in it for a while with some magic weapons, he didn't dare to go in. Ghost-faced God Chen Man has a large number of clones, and even if he himself is not in his lair, it is normal to arrange a few more clones to guard by him.

The doppelganger of the master of the law phase period...... Although not every doppelganger has the strength level of the law phase and the primordial infant, Lu Mingheng did not dare to risk his life.

He came here this time, just to see if there were any special changes in this Ghost Face God Valley. Because according to common sense, when a senior monk completes the initial stage of breakthrough, the movement caused by it will be relatively large, and it should also have a more profound impact on the surrounding environment.

I haven't heard of it. If there really is something big that can't be hidden, then he shouldn't have heard the wind. This information should have been closed and covered up by Chen Man himself or the Wei official.

In that case, we can only come and have a look.

He was also worried that outside the Ghost Face God Valley, there would be some special arrangements of the Wei Kingdom, and after arriving here, he was quite cautious. But it turned out that these were redundant, and he didn't get into any trouble.

He found an inaccessible direction, slowly approaching the Valley of the Ghost Face. He moves slowly, and he doesn't dare to fly, just walking on the ground.

On the one hand, I am afraid that the movement will be discovered, and on the other hand, I am also afraid of the strange aura that has been blown out of the rumors, and if it is really contaminated, there may be big problems.

In fact, there was no need to enter the valley, when Lu Mingheng approached a certain distance, he could vaguely feel that there was something very special mixed in the aura between heaven and earth. The amount is very small, and it is easy to miss it if he does not perceive it carefully, but as he gets closer and closer to the valley, this perception becomes more and more obvious.

At the same time, as his perception became more and more obvious, he also felt this aura, quietly eroding his body. After the skin came into contact with this aura, there was a slight feeling of discomfort. Lu Mingheng could only release a small amount of spiritual power to act as a protector on the surface of his body.

But then, he soon discovered that such protection alone was not enough. Those strange auras mixed in the air were rapidly corroding the aura used to protect his body.

Moreover, he also found that these little bits of aura, mixed with normal aura, touched his body and seeped in, eroding his meridians and the spiritual power in his body internally.

This level is very low, and the damage caused seems to be relatively slight for the time being, and it is not irreversible, and it does not even require special treatment.

However, Lu Mingheng still felt a little frightened.

You know, he hasn't entered the valley yet, and the concentration of that strange aura is very low, but there are some in the air, and you have to feel it carefully to be able to detect it.

However, despite this, this power has already exhibited very terrifying qualities.

He could somewhat imagine why there were very few people who rushed into the valley, even if the ghost-faced god Chen Man didn't do anything, and he could come out alive.

But...... He had a vague feeling.

This strange aura, why did he feel a little familiar?

But now, he doesn't dare to confirm it.

He continued to move closer, and by the time he reached the edge of the valley, the concentration hadn't risen enough to be threatening, but it was enough for him to confirm his previous suspicion.

This power is very similar to the Lu Ming Dynasty, which is one of the nine ancestors of the family and has now entered the Jindan period.

The elders of the family have a very good attitude towards him and value him more. From the patriarch Lu Chaoxi to Chaohe and then to the Ming Dynasty, in the past, they would often call him in front of him, give him some guidance, or ask about the current situation, or give him something that is not too valuable, but has a good effect on cultivation.

And when he was with Lu Mingchao, he had also felt the special power of this senior monk who was his aunt and grandmother more than once.

With this right now...... It's really like that.

Could it be that the power here is the Void Spiritual Qi? The innate spiritual root of the ghost-faced god Chen is the same as the Void Spiritual Root of my aunt and grandmother Lu Mingchao?

Of course, even if it is 90% similar, less than 100% does not dare to define it casually.

He just kept this matter in mind, and it should be worth reporting.

After a moment's hesitation, he walked straight into the valley.

Ghostface doesn't seem to care much about his place of residence. There is no forbidden law, and there is no such thing as a mountain gate.

Of course, the strange aura that pervades this valley and is suspected to be a void attribute is the best forbidden method in itself.

Outside the valley, Lu Mingheng sensed the existence of the suspected void aura, but the strength did not threaten him, but he had just entered the valley and crossed a certain boundary, the impact of this void aura on his body suddenly became stronger. The previous feeling of skin erosion, meridian erosion, and spiritual power in the body became many times stronger in an instant than outside the valley.

Lu Mingheng's face turned a little blue. On the one hand, he was very uncomfortable by the void aura, and on the other hand, he was also trying to resist this erosion, constantly consuming his spiritual power.

He quickly assessed his current state, and probably had a bottom in his heart.

This void aura is terrifying, and its attributes are peculiar, but to put it bluntly, it is just an aura that naturally permeates here. No matter how rich and weird it is, it is still uncontrolled in nature, and the aura itself has no malicious or active attack implications.

In this case, as an enlightened monk, he will still be able to protect himself in a short period of time, and there will be no big problems.

He estimated that he would be able to carry it for an hour or so—provided there were no more surprises.

But in reality, he didn't need to be in the valley that long.

He pulled out two things from his storage bag. One of them was a small white porcelain vase, and the inside was empty. The other is a gossip instrument plate.

These two things are both functional ritual instruments.

Ming Heng picked up the small porcelain vase, closed his eyes, and activated the magic weapon with spiritual power, and some tiny light blue runes appeared on the surface of the small porcelain vase.

After a few moments, he opened his eyes and placed the white porcelain vase back into his storage bag.

This thing, which can absorb the free aura in the air and seal it in the bottle, is a small thing that will be used in alchemy. Lu Mingheng used this little thing to collect some of the aura in the valley, and when he turned around, he would attach his feelings and find a way to transmit it back to the Yan Kingdom.

He wasn't sure if it was an ethereal aura, he felt like it. But Lu Mingchao, who is himself an ethereal spirit root, will definitely be able to make a more accurate judgment.

Then, he took out the gossip disc again.

If it is said that collecting the aura in the valley and judging its attributes is a temporary intention, then using this ritual plate to trace the changes in the aura in the valley in the past period of time is the main goal of his trip.

If Chen Man really broke through the Fa Phase, then his special spiritual root must require him to break through here, and it must be the best to break through the Fa Phase, and if this matter really happened here in the valley, then tracing the past aura changes, it is possible to find some clues as evidence.
