"Shall we continue forward? Although that Corpse Puppet is terrifying, we might not necessarily have to confront it head-on. You all heard the sound just now; it’s still so distance from us, probably in the deepest part of this valley," Du Bing’er said.
"Yes, we just need to pick the Yin Sha Blood Fruit, and the Yin Sha Fruit Tree is located on the outer edge of this valley," Tong Jianjun said.
Pan Zhen nodded, indicating agreent.
Xu Ping’an and Yin Xue, however, didn’t speak.
At this mont, they were still shocked by what they had just discovered.
The deepest part of the valley was the entrance to the Nine Nether Yellow Springs, and one didn’t need to think to know the level of danger.
However, Xu Ping’an did not share this with them.
Truth be told, if he had the chance, he was actually quite curious to see what the Nine Nether Yellow Springs were like.
Of course, he knew it wasn’t that simple.
Soon, Xu Ping’an and his party erged from the dense forest and arrived at a huge valley entrance.
On both sides were towering peaks that soared into the clouds, each thousands of feet tall.
Previously, Xu Ping’an had used the Eyes of Ti and Space to observe that the tops of these peaks were covered in dense spatial prohibitions, making it impossible to enter from that side of the mountains.
In other words, entering the valley from the Forest of Nether Corpses was the only entrance.
The valley was very deep, stretching for almost ten kiloters or so.
The scenery in the valley was eerie; apart from the Yin Sha Fruit Tree, there was no other vegetation—it was almost a barren Gobi landscape.
The mountainside, however, was lush and overgrown with dense forests.
At the entrance of the valley, there was a giant statue carved to look like an enormous Xuanwu beast.
This stone carving was nearly a hundred feet tall, appearing extrely ancient and weathered by the ages.
But the carving emitted an aura so terrifying that it caused one’s heart to palpitate, imparting a sense of majesty.
Previously, Xu Ping’an had also used the Eyes of Ti and Space to observe it, but he couldn’t see through the stone, unable to discern what was inside.
On the back of the Xuanwu, there was also a huge stele.
The stele itself was a whopping three hundred feet high.
Imposing and magnificent, it was awe-inspiring.
Even Du Bingxin and the others felt a profound sense of insignificance when they looked at the stele and the statue.
"What’s carved on this stele?" Pan Zhen asked curiously.
"They look like divine inscriptions, indecipherable," Tong Jianjun replied.
Du Bingxin also gravely said, "The first character seems to read ’subdue’; the other three, I do not recognize."
"Subdue the Heavenly Mystical Prohibition!" Yin Xue interjected.
"Subdue the Heavenly Mystical Prohibition? You recognize it?" Du Bingxin and the others turned to Yin Xue and asked simultaneously.
"I recognize them. I’ve studied so divine inscriptions before, and these four characters are exactly ’subdue the Heavenly Mystical Prohibition,’" Yin Xue replied.
"What does ’subdue the Heavenly Mystical Prohibition’ an?" Pan Zhen asked.
"I don’t know, but it must be related to this valley," Yin Xue responded.
Xu Ping’an was also pondering what ’subdue the Heavenly Mystical Prohibition’ ant.
But he understood one thing: this place must be a forbidden area.
"This place gives a very bad feeling, especially this stele, which makes my scalp tingle," Tong Jianjun said.
"You’re right, I feel the sa. It’s a very unpleasant sensation. Could it be that this place is actually an extrely terrifying forbidden area?" Pan Zhen said.
"Both of you gentlen feel it too? To be honest, I’ve had this sensation for a while now," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.
In reality, his feeling was even stronger. Besides the tingling of the scalp, he also felt as if he was being watched.
It was as if invisible eyes were staring at him, sending chills down his spine.
Tong Jianjun and Pan Zhen seed to ignore Xu Ping’an’s words.
Clearly, in their view, it was normal for Xu Ping’an to feel afraid.
"Alright, let’s go in. Even if there’s danger, we’ll make it quick, grab the Yin Sha Blood Fruits, and leave," Du Bingxin said.
Xu Ping’an and the others nodded.
They then stepped forward into the valley.
But the mont they entered the valley, Xu Ping’an felt a powerful Soul Power sweep over him.
It felt as if he’d been stripped naked for all to see.
He glanced at Du Bingxin and Yin Xue, but they seed calm, as if they hadn’t felt anything.
"Did you just feel a powerful Soul Power scanning you?" Xu Ping’an hurriedly sent a ssage to Yin Xue.
"Nope, nothing happened. What’s up, master?" Yin Xue sent back.
"Just now, the mont I stepped into the valley, I felt like I was being spied on; the Soul Power was incredibly strong, stronger than anything I’ve ever felt before," Xu Ping’an said.
He didn’t even have the words to describe its magnitude.
In front of that Soul Power, he felt incredibly insignificant.
There must be so entity here that he was unaware of.
"If that’s the case, then there might really be a powerful being here. Master, should we continue to follow them?" Yin Xue asked with so concern.
"We’ve already co this far, let’s see what happens," Xu Ping’an responded.
"I’ll follow your lead, master," Yin Xue replied.
Soon, they saw the Yin Sha Fruit Tree.
It looked extrely ancient, towering over a hundred ters tall.
The entire trunk was a dark red color, devoid of leaves, save for three blood-red fruits that shone brightly.
The fruits emitted a tempting fragrance that almost entranced him.
"Is this the Yin Sha Fruit Tree?" Xu Ping’an asked in surprise.
"Yes, that’s the Yin Sha Fruit Tree. However, the last ti I saw it, it was outside the valley. Now it has moved inside," Yin Xue communicated.
"What a strange and eerie tree. It seems to have developed a consciousness and is tempting us to approach. And the tree’s power seems to be quite formidable; it’s probably reached the Eleventh Rank First Layer Realm," Xu Ping’an sent back.
"Indeed, it’s extraordinary. It won’t be easy for them to obtain these three Yin Sha Blood Fruits," Yin Xue sent back.
Xu Ping’an nodded.
As Xu Ping’an and Yin Xue communicated telepathically, the three people in front showed extre excitent.
Especially Pan Zhen and Tong Jianjun, who both displayed overpowering greed.
"Is this the Yin Sha Fruit Tree? Such tempting fruits. If I consu these fruits, my strength will surely surge," Pan Zhen said greedily.
Having said that, he dashed towards the Yin Sha Fruit Tree at high speed.
"The Yin Sha Blood Fruit is mine," Tong Jianjun also lit up with desire, quickly dashing forward.
"Co back, it’s dangerous!"
Du Bingxin called out anxiously from the side.
However, it was as if the two n couldn’t hear her, as they were completely lost in a frenzy.
"It’s no use; they’ve fallen for the seduction technique of the Yin Sha Fruit Tree," Xu Ping’an warned.
"Damn it," Du Bingxin said angrily upon hearing this.
The next mont, she dashed out swiftly, chasing after them.
Xu Ping’an and Yin Xue stood aside, silently watching.
