Zhong Shen's residence, the front house.

"Shiwu, do you mean that Zhong Tu and Zhong Yun have both gone to the Valley of No Return?" Zhong Shen asked, standing in front of the door, looking at the little scholar who came out to greet him.

"Yes, it was yesterday evening, Young Master Tu came here in a hurry, saying that he wanted to leave a letter for you, saying that Young Master Yun was suddenly assigned a task within the clan yesterday and wanted to go to the Valley of No Return. Shiwu nodded and said.

"The person in charge of the tasks within our clan is Zhong Jinlong and Zhong Jinkui's father, Zhong Yuefeng, Zhong Yun offended Zhong Jinkui before, and Zhong Jinlong encountered an accident in the Nightmare Palace. No, I'll have to go along and have a look. Zhong Shen groaned slightly and said.

"Ah, Childe, do you mean, Zhong Jinlong, one of the three sons, has he fallen in the Nightmare Palace? But you just came back, and you didn't take a break, are you going out again?" Shi Wu was shocked when he heard this, and then asked again.

"It's too late, the Valley of No Return is about three days away from the Yunping Mountain Range where our Zhong family is located, and since they have already set off for almost a day, I must set off immediately. Zhong Shen's eyes flickered slightly, and he said so.

......

In the southwest of Tiannan Prefecture, somewhere in the continuous canyon surrounded by clouds and mist all year round, there is a place of five-colored mist.

It seemed to be a huge swamp, with green and yellow silt and some unknown giant plants everywhere except for a few protruding rocks, and a series of bubbles and gurgling sounds from time to time.

The steep peaks on both sides of the canyon meet at the top, forming a small meandering crevice, and the air is filled with a mixture of miasma, making the valley even more dark.

At the entrance of the canyon, there is only a passage less than ten zhang wide, which can enter and exit the canyon, two figures swooped down from the air in the distance, and a few flashes fell in front of the entrance of the canyon, and two young men appeared. One of them looked broad and fat, with a simple face, while the other was dressed in a strong suit with a long sword on his back, and his handsome face was a little pale.

"Third child, why are you in such a hurry? Although Zhong Yuefeng's old fox deliberately made things difficult and only gave you seven days, there is no problem with me helping you. The fat young man reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said in a slightly complaining tone.

"Naturally, I should finish the task early, so that I can go back to the business earlier. This Valley of No Return is known as one of the seven dangers in Tiannan, and I, Zhong Yun, are going to break through today. The handsome young man's eyes flickered a few times and said.

The two of them were Zhong Tu and Zhong Yun who came all the way from the Zhong family.

As far as I know, there are a lot of mandala flowers from the previous year in the Oolong Pond at the entrance of the Valley of No Return, and we can collect them at the mouth of the valley, so we don't have to go deep into the valley. You must know that since this Valley of No Return is called a natural hazard, it is not a waste of fame, not to mention anything else, it is the swarms of iron-winged flying beeles, which is enough for the two of us to eat a pot. Now that you've just recovered from your injuries, don't hurt your vitality again. Zhong Tu was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said.

"Second brother, I know. Thanks to my eldest brother's blood lipid pill, my injuries have already recovered almost, and I have also learned a new swordsmanship in the past two months, you actually don't have to come out with me for this mission, these two months are enough to drag you down, and I feel a little sorry in my heart. Zhong Yun nodded and said.

"Why do you say this between you and my brother! Besides, before my eldest brother left, I promised him to look at you. Okay, now that we've arrived, it's better to deal with things sooner rather than later, and rush back to the clan as soon as possible, I still want to hear from my eldest brother about what he saw and heard in the Nightmare Palace!" Zhong Tu said with a wave of his hand.

Zhong Yun nodded, and the two of them immediately took out a green pill from the storage bag and swallowed it, and then walked side by side towards the entrance of the canyon.

......

Two hours later.

It was already evening, the sun was setting in the west, sprinkling a large golden light, and a full moon was faintly emerging in the sky on the other side.

In a swamp at the entrance to the Valley of No Return, there was a sound of breaking the air and a roar.

In the mire, two figures are surrounding a green giant flower that is more than two zhang high, and the whole body is like a huge funnel, and seven or eight thick green vines around it are writhing like octopus tentacles, protecting the giant flower in the middle, each vine is three or four zhang high, a foot is thick, and it is full of spikes, which makes people daunting.

At the same time, in the corolla of the giant flower, a crimson color, like a tongue-like thing, kept spitting, leaving a red afterimage in mid-air, as if trying to wrap up the two figures fighting with it.

However, these two figures attacked and defended, and they cooperated very tacitly, so that the green giant flower had no way to start.

"Second brother!" a handsome young man who was standing a little farther away suddenly whispered.

The fat young man who was fighting with the green giant flower in close quarters flashed his eyes, and his figure suddenly jumped up, and the silver giant hammer held in both hands had been raised above his head, and then slammed down.

As the giant hammer fell, the spirit patterns on the surface suddenly lit up in circles, and under the array of silver rays, seventeen or eighteen silver hammer phantoms were conjured in mid-air, smashing down towards the funnel-shaped green giant flower below.

The giant green flower seemed to be aware of life, and the seven or eight green vines around it turned around and grew a little thicker, weaving a large green net full of spikes over it, blocking it above.

With a "boom", the dense silver hammer phantom fell violently, and bursts of dazzling silver light burst out on the green giant web composed of green vines.

In the silver light, the green vines broke and splattered large green juice from them.

But just as the green vines were destroyed and scattered, the silt around the roots of the green funnel-shaped giant flowers tumbled, and then with a few "poofs", seven or eight green vines that were normal before grew out quickly, and rolled towards the Zhongtu in the middle with a closing momentum.

"Third child, take advantage of now!" Zhong Tu shouted, and a layer of shield suddenly lit up around his body.

Zhong Yun pinched the sword with one hand, and the cyan long sword hanging in front of him spun around, and a large area of cyan light suddenly appeared on the surface, and then turned into a cyan sword rainbow flying out, and when it was not allowed to happen, it pierced through the gap of the thick green vines that had not yet closed, and slammed into the surface of the green giant flower.

The blue light flashed, and with a "click", the green giant flower shaped like a big funnel was suddenly split into two pieces from top to bottom, and the two giant flowers fell to both sides respectively, revealing a red and blood-like bud the size of a millstone in the middle. Above the bud was a tongue-like thing that had been connected to the crimson color of the previous one.

As soon as the sword technique in Zhong Yun's hand changed, the cyan sword light flashed backwards, and with a "poof", the tongue-like crimson thing was cut off from the root at once, and the surrounding vines suddenly stopped growing, and the entire giant flower finally stopped moving.

Seeing this, Zhong Tu breathed a sigh of relief, and his figure fell.

Zhong Yun's figure flickered a few times, appeared at the giant flower bud, reached out and took out a bowl-sized dark green seed from it, and said with a little excitement: "It's the ninth, find another one and you're done!"

"It's not getting early, and it seems that we should be able to get out of this hellish place before nightfall. Zhong Tu looked around, nodded and said.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

The already dark sky became darker and darker, as if night had fallen into the valley at once.

"What's the matter, why did the sky suddenly become so dark?" Zhong Yun was slightly stunned when he saw this.

"Look over there!" Zhong Tu shouted, pointing to the side of the void with one hand.

I saw that in the middle of the black press, dots of evil red suddenly appeared, getting bigger and bigger, and becoming more and more vivid and dazzling, converging into a large red heavenly river, spanning from mid-air, and falling in the surrounding mire.
