Ying Tian Sect's courtyard's Nine Great Trial Lands had already closed. All the young cultivators who came to participate in Ying Tian Sect's entrance trial had already entered these Nine Great Trial Lands.
Not a single one of them had given up on this incomparably cruel trial.
At this time, within the third trial, Gu Fei and Yang Zhan had arrived outside a mountain valley.
"The smell of blood."
Gu Fei frowned. A thick smell of blood was actually coming from the mountain valley. That made him a bit curious, so he directly walked inside.
Yang Zhan saw Gu Fei walk inside and could only follow behind Gu Fei.
"This is …"
As soon as they entered the mountain valley, Gu Fei saw corpses on the ground. They were human corpses, and they were all desiccated corpses, as if they had been sucked dry of their flesh and blood.
"What's going on?!"
Yang Zhan was quite frightened by this scene. These corpses all had a large hole in the top of their skulls. Their deaths were extremely horrifying.
"Let's go in and see what's going on."
Gu Fei calmly said.
These corpses were all the young cultivators who had entered the third trial. Why had they died so miserably in this mountain valley? That was what had piqued Gu Fei's curiosity.
The deeper Gu Fei and Yang Zhan went into the mountain valley, the more corpses they saw, and the stronger the smell of blood was.
Along the way, Gu Fei estimated that he had already seen over a thousand corpses. These corpses all had a large hole in their skulls. Their essence and spiritual energy had been sucked dry, turning them into desiccated corpses.
These corpses didn't have the slightest trace of essence energy. Could there be a mysterious lifeform living in this mountain valley?
The mountain valley was filled with jagged rocks and there were very few trees. But there were many skeletons scattered on the ground, and there were even more new corpses on top of them.
"How is this a trial? This is practically suicide!"
Yang Zhan was incomparably alarmed. He didn't dare stray too far from Gu Fei. His intuition told him that this mountain valley was filled with unknown dangers.
But he couldn't figure out why these people had died here. Hadn't they been thrown into the various regions of this trial?
Gu Fei didn't know what was going on.
At this moment, Gu Fei suddenly raised his head and looked up into the sky. He saw something falling rapidly from the sky.
"That is …"
Gu Fei's pupils shrank. It was a corpse. To be exact, it was the corpse of a young cultivator who had just died. However, this corpse was not a dried corpse.
A dull sound came from the depths of the valley, and the corpse fell directly into the depths of the valley.
Gu Fei vaguely saw a black shadow disappear into the horizon. Even with his cultivation, he couldn't see what it was, which surprised him.
Even Gu Fei couldn't clearly see what that thing in the sky was. Yang Zhan, a mortal who wasn't even an immortal, couldn't even see that thing in the sky.
Yang Zhan didn't sense the existence of that mysterious thing in the sky at all.
Gu Fei didn't say anything. He just paused for a moment before continuing forward.
There were more and more corpses on the ground, which made him feel incredulous. Could it be that in the third trial, there was a mysterious lifeform that specifically hunted and killed the young cultivators who were participating in the trial?
No one could answer Gu Fei.
After turning a corner, Gu Fei and Yang Zhan were shocked by the scene that appeared in front of them. There was a huge nest in front of them.
It was a nest made entirely out of bones. The nest was thousands of zhang tall and was shaped like a bird's nest. However, this bird's nest was made out of bones.
"What kind of thing is this nest?!"
Yang Zhan was dumbfounded, his voice trembling. This was his first time seeing such a shocking thing. A nest made of bones that was a thousand meters tall. Even if he told others, no one would believe him.
At this time, the nest was surrounded by dried corpses. There were at least tens of thousands of them. Seeing this scene, even Gu Fei couldn't help being shocked.
It had to be known that there were only ten to twenty thousand young cultivators who entered the third trial. Could it be that all the young cultivators who entered the third trial had been annihilated?
"Ai …"
Gu Fei sighed. He didn't think that the Ying Sect's trial would be so cruel. It was much crueler than he had imagined.
These young cultivators were the elites of the human race. Many of them definitely had the potential to become immortals, but now, they had all died in this trial.
At this time, there was a sudden air-piercing sound in the sky. A black shadow directly swooped down from the sky, trying to grab Gu Fei and Yang Zhan.
"Brother Gu, be careful!"
Yang Zhan exclaimed.
"Swish!"
An incomparably sharp sword light suddenly rushed out from Gu Fei's body. The sword light flashed through the sky, and the mysterious lifeform that swooped down from the sky was actually cleaved in half.
The mysterious lifeform's corpse fell to the ground, and a nauseating stench filled the air.
Gu Fei looked and saw that the mysterious lifeform that was cleaved in half by his sword was actually something similar to a rotten corpse, but it had bone wings on its back.
"Dead soul!"
Yang Zhan was shocked.
"You've seen a dead soul before?"
Gu Fei was a little surprised. One had to know that Yang Zhan wasn't an immortal and was just a mortal. As a mortal, if he were to encounter a dead soul, it would definitely be a dead end.
If Yang Zhan had seen a dead soul before, he might still be alive.
"I haven't seen it before, but I've heard of it before!"
Yang Zhan looked at the corpse of the dead soul nervously. Could this bone nest be a nest of dead souls?
At this time, a tentacle silently extended out from the bone nest and pierced at the top of Gu Fei's head with extreme speed.
"Swish!"
With a thought, another sword light rushed out from Gu Fei's body. The sword light flashed, and that tentacle fell from the sky.
In the next moment, an ear-piercing sound came from the bone nest. This sound was like something rubbing against each other, and it was a bone-chilling sound.
After that, the entire bone nest shook. At the same time, black shadows flew over from all directions, enveloping the entire valley.
Those were countless terrifying dead souls with bone wings, malevolent faces, and a rotten stench.
"This …"
Seeing this scene, Yang Zhan was dumbfounded.
"I'm dead for sure this time. Why didn't I leave just now?"
Yang Zhan was filled with regret. Now, he couldn't even leave even if he wanted to.
At this time, under Gu Fei's gaze, a huge monster was crawling out of the bone nest. It was a monster covered in tentacles. An extremely powerful death qi spread out from its body.
"How can I live like this?!"
Gu Fei found it hard to believe that there was actually an extremely powerful dead soul in this valley. The cultivation base of this dead soul had probably surpassed the Immortal Emperor realm.
No wonder those cultivators who participated in the entrance trial were hunted down.
The tentacle monster let out a cry towards the countless dead souls in the sky. Then, the densely packed dead souls in the sky pounced towards Gu Fei and Yang Zhan.
The undead spirits blotted out the sky and covered the earth as they swooped down. This scene caused Yang Zhan to be dumbfounded. With so many undead spirits attacking together, it was likely that they would lose their lives here.
Just when Yang Zhan thought that it was over, Gu Fei made his move. Rays of extremely sharp sword light rushed out from his body. Wherever the sword light passed, the dead souls fell from the sky.
Very quickly, the ground was filled with the corpses of the dead souls.
Yang Zhan didn't think that Gu Fei would be this powerful. He was actually able to block the attack of countless dead souls by himself.
Swish!
One of the tentacles suddenly stabbed towards Yang Zhan, its speed reaching the extreme.
Yang Zhan was startled and hastily dodged to the side. The tentacle also retracted.
"Nine Heaven Punishing Swords!"
Without hesitation, Gu Fei displayed this ultimate killing technique. In the next moment, a terrifying killing intent spread out from his body. Even Yang Zhan who was beside him felt as though he had fallen into an ice cave.
The nine immortal sword lights burst out with a strong killing power and obliterated upwards. Countless dead spirits fell from the sky like dumplings.
This was an incomparably crazy scene. Very quickly, the dead souls in the sky were all killed by Gu Fei. The ground was covered with a thick layer of dead souls' corpses.
That tentacle monster's countless tentacles wrapped towards Gu Fei.
Gu Fei still used the Punishing Heaven Nine Swords, and that tentacle monster was instantly killed.
It seemed like something big was happening in the third trial. This made the higher-ups of Ying Tian Sect's courtyard feel uneasy. The stone door was already closed, and they couldn't enter the third trial.
After Gu Fei killed the tentacle monster, he jumped onto the Bone Nest. He saw that the Bone Nest was filled with corpses, human corpses. Several small tentacle monsters were devouring the flesh and bones of these corpses.
He waved his right hand, and several sword lights immediately rushed out from his hand, killing the few small tentacle monsters in the Bone Nest.
"That is …"
Gu Fei's gaze was suddenly attracted by something in the Bone Nest. It was a bead. To be precise, it was a bead that gathered endless Death Qi.
"What is this?"
Gu Fei waved his right hand, and the bead in the Bone Nest flew up and fell into his hand.
He carefully observed this bead, and finally came to a conclusion. This bead was definitely worthy of being called the Death God's Bead.
This Death God's Bead was only the size of an adult's thumb, but the Death Qi contained within it was absolutely massive. Once this Death Qi exploded, all life within a radius of tens of thousands of miles would be cut off.
"This is a good item. It's most suitable for swindling people."
Gu Fei carefully kept this Death God's Bead. Such an item would definitely come in handy in the future.
Just as Gu Fei took the Death God's Bead, Yang Zhan, who was under the Bone Nest, suddenly exclaimed.
Gu Fei quickly turned around and was delighted to see that Yang Zhan was actually being chased by a small tentacle monster.
