Urban Peerless Expert-Chapter 846 - 866: The Valley of Death?_1

This valley has no boundaries in sight.

This White Jade Platform towers like a city.

Within these gullies, Sword Qi soars to the sky.

This sword cleaves Heaven and Earth!

What kind of person could wield such a ferocious sword!

An immortal?

Lin Chen suddenly said, "It is said that the Five Elements Immortal Palace is linked to Immortal Fate, so the gate of the Five Elements Immortal Palace should not lead to a random place, but to a fixed one instead..."

Gu Yuexi’s eyes widened in shock: "You mean, the Immortal Fate of the Five Elements Immortal Palace is actually here?"

Lin Chen nodded: "I think it’s possible, at least it was the case in the beginning, otherwise, how could there be the legend of Immortal Fate?"

Gu Yuexi, staring at the huge bronze pillars on the White Jade Platform in front of her, ventured a guess: "If your hypothesis is true, then this magnificent White Jade Platform, with its majestic array formations, could it be the key to ascending to Immortality?"

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up as he continued his deduction: "If the array formation of this White Jade Platform really is the key to Ascending to Immortality, can we infer that the reason why Ascending to Immortality has become a legend over the past ten thousand years is that this White Jade Platform has been destroyed by someone?"

The two exchanged astonished glances.

Although they hadn’t received any confirmation, they might have already been close to uncovering a truth that would shock the world.

"Shall we take a look?"

"Alright!"

Who could resist their curiosity when faced with such an event?

After observing for a while and ensuring that there were no ferocious Demonic Beasts in their surroundings, the two quietly glided down the cliff and then approached the White Jade Platform close to the ground.

There were no Demonic Beasts entrenched on the White Jade Platform, nor were there any array formation traps for protection. That one sword not only completely bisected the White Jade Platform, but it also destroyed countless formation patterns on it, rendering it a pile of useless rubble.

Lin Chen took out an Image Recording Stone and recorded everything here, as it all looked so astonishing.

After making a round, although everything here seemed pretty magical, Lin Chen and Gu Yuexi couldn’t explain or even understand its magic with their current knowledge and experience.

"Well, it seems like this place is completely ruined. No matter how glorious it was in the past, now it’s just a pile of ruins..."

Before Lin Chen could finish his sentence, he abruptly stopped talking and turned his head sharply.

A hundred meters away from the two, a disheveled middle-aged man was staring straight at Lin Chen and Gu Yuexi.

It was impossible to tell the man’s age, and his clothes were ragged and worn. His eyes looked somewhat vacant, and there was no sign of vitality in them.

How could there have been no sound?

Although they had a wide view in this place, the two hadn’t seen anyone throughout their whole exploration. Where did he suddenly come from?

From beneath the abyss?

The hair on Lin Chen’s back suddenly stood on end, and his scalp tingled as a shiver ran through his whole body.

Is this guy a human or a ghost?

Gu Yuexi subconsciously grabbed Lin Chen’s arm, her eyes filled with fear, like a frightened deer.

Gathering his courage, Lin Chen saluted with a cupped fist: "Senior? I have mistakenly entered this place. May I ask where this is?"

The middle-aged man listlessly raised his head, and some liveliness returned to his wooden eyes: "This is the Valley of Death. How did the two of you get here?"

Valley of Death!

Lin Chen and Gu Yuexi’s eyes widened in shock and disbelief.

One of the Six Desolate Lands, the Valley of Death!

Did they escape the Five Elements Immortal Palace just to fall into another Dead End, the Valley of Death?

Is their fate that bitter?

More importantly, the Valley of Death is not located in Nan Yuzhou but in the central part of East Emperor State, to the east of Nan Yuzhou.

Across the Barren Wilderness, there were seven states. The Central Divine State had the largest territory, was the most prosperous, and had the largest population. It was the center of the world. To the west was Xixi State, to the north was North Wu State, to the south was Nan Yuzhou, to the southeast was East Emperor State, to the northeast was Dongpengzhou, and Dongshengzhou was to the northeast of Dongpengzhou.

Lin Chen never expected that after passing through the Light Door, they would cross an entire state and end up in East Emperor State.

From here, Cangshan Cave Heaven was very far away. Even if they took a flying boat and traveled nonstop, it would take at least a month and a half!

Lin Chen stared at the middle-aged man in front of him and felt even more shocked. While he and Gu Yuexi had ended up here through the gates of the Five Elements Immortal Palace, how had this man arrived?

This was a Dead End, after all!

Legend has it that the Valley of Death was originally a lush and vibrant land. One day, a blood rain fell from the sky, blanketing thousands of miles. All the Demonic Beasts within this range experienced mutations, becoming unimaginably powerful and ferocious.

After the blood rain, corpses fell from the sky, turning into mountains. Endless blood seeped into the ground, and the human and Demonic Beast corpses lying underground mysteriously resurrected, their eyes burning with blood-red flames, gaining sentience.

They guarded this place like immortal defenders, attacking any approaching life forms, unwilling to let outsiders disturb their master’s slumber.

Generation after generation, the Mutated Demonic Beasts reproduced. Their offspring inherited their ferocious temperament and mutated bloodline. They would attack any outsider who didn’t possess peculiar blood energy, fighting without fear of death, succeeding each other endlessly.

Because of this, the place was known as the Valley of Death. Even Hollow Void Realm experts would generally not enter, for even they could die upon entering.

How did this man end up here, under such circumstances?
