"This …!"
When they saw the twenty to thirty headless corpses kneeling side by side at the entrance of Death Valley, the geniuses from the various sects came to a halt. After which, they stood behind the corpses with unconcealable shock in their eyes.
Although they had already guessed that Ye Jing and the other 30 prodigies would not be able to escape after being taken away by Xiao Fan, they were still greatly shaken when they saw Ye Jing and the other 30 prodigies being killed at the entrance of Death Valley as an apology for Zhao Lingyan and the other four prodigies.
So many prodigies had died at once. How big of a commotion would the outside world be when they left Chaotic Heart Ridge?
"Xiao Fan killed so many prodigies at once. How is he going to face the wrath of the various sects?" The prodigy who had been captured by Xiao Fan and given a Chaotic Heart Bead as a reward looked at the headless corpses of Ye Jing and the other prodigies and sighed softly as he muttered to himself.
After calming down from the shock, Ye Jing and the other prodigies' corpses were carefully collected by their fellow sect members and friends. They were going to bring them out of Chaotic Heart Ridge and hand them over to their respective sects for a proper burial.
At this moment, the other prodigies could not see any trace of Xiao Fan. They looked around and muttered softly.
"Xiao Fan, where is he? Could he have entered Death Valley? "A prodigy frowned as he looked at Death Valley in front of him.
"If I'm not mistaken, he should have entered Death Valley. Let's just wait here!" A prodigy sat down and said.
"Why should we wait? No one who enters Death Valley has ever left alive. Xiao Fan is no exception. He won't be able to come out! "A prodigy turned around and was about to leave when he shook his head.
"That's right. Let's go. It's a pity that we lost the Chaotic Heart Bead and the Dragon Blood Tree. Sigh!"
"Let's wait a little longer. If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his corpse!"
"We've been in Chaotic Heart Ridge for two days. Should we leave?"
...
All of a sudden, prodigies from various sects gathered in front of Death Valley. Some decided to wait here, unwilling to give up. Some left in disappointment, shaking their heads helplessly. Some were hesitant and unable to make a decision.
In Death Valley!
"Young Master, be careful. Although Death Valley is located in the outer region of Chaotic Heart Ridge, the danger level here is even higher than the inner region of Chaotic Heart Ridge. It can be said to be the most dangerous place in Chaotic Heart Ridge!" Mu Yang said in a low voice, "Since ancient times, those who entered this place may have left, but there has never been any record of it!"
"I know, this place is a little interesting, but it's okay, just follow me closely!" Xiao Fan nodded and said. After which, he continued to walk forward at a neither fast nor slow pace. Ming Yexue and Mu Yang followed closely behind.
The three of them continued to move forward. The increasingly dense fog continued to churn around them, causing the three of them to be unable to see each other even though they were close by.
All of a sudden!
"Roar!"
A deep roar rang out beside the three of them. Then, a black figure charged out from the thick fog and pounced towards Xiao Fan. Its speed was as fast as a black mountain.
"Crack!"
However, Xiao Fan did not even look at it. He directly raised his hand and grabbed the black figure. Then, he exerted force and instantly killed the black figure in his hand, causing it to lose all signs of life.
Soon after, Xiao Fan released his hand and the black figure landed on the ground. If one looked at it, one would see that it was a strange bird covered in black scales. Its mouth was filled with fine teeth and there were spikes on its back, making it look extremely ferocious.
"Roar!" "Roar!" "Roar!"
After killing the strange bird, it was as if he had poked a hornet's nest. In an instant, countless sharp cries rang out from the thick fog. Then, countless black figures burst out from the thick fog and pounced towards Xiao Fan and the other two.
"Scram!"
Akira Yuki attacked. Her beautiful face was filled with coldness. She slashed out with the Mysterious Heavenly Sword and an extremely bright light instantly tore through the thick fog. The countless strange birds were clearly visible, causing one's scalp to turn numb.
But in the next second!
Under Akira Yuki's sword, the countless strange birds let out miserable cries and were mercilessly shredded by the light from Akira Yuki's sword. Not a single one of them was left alive. They were all turned into black flesh and blood that scattered on the ground, emitting an unpleasant stench. In the end, they were all devoured by the thick fog.
"Scram, or I will kill all of you. Not a single one of you will be left alive!" Xiao Fan said coldly to all the strange creatures in the thick fog. At the same time, his footsteps did not stop and he continued to walk forward.
As Xiao Fan's voice fell, the thick fog seemed to have quietened down. Many of the strange creatures retreated. They felt an extremely dangerous aura from Xiao Fan and did not dare to continue moving forward.
However, there were still some that did not retreat. However, they did not dare to move forward for the time being. They all stopped in the distance and growled as they glared at Xiao Fan. Their eyes were still filled with ferocity, causing one's heart to palpitate.
Xiao Fan ignored all of this and continued to walk forward. After another 15 minutes, the three of them finally walked out of the thick fog and arrived at the center of Death Valley.
Here, there was a city. Green and black stone walls stood tall, emitting a strange aura. Looking from afar, it looked like a dead city that no one dared to enter.
"There's actually a city here?" Mu Yang was momentarily dazed.
What was in Death Valley of the Chaotic Heart Ridge? This was something that many sects of the Spirit Domain were curious about. However, the danger level of this place was even higher than the core region of the Chaotic Heart Ridge. There was no way out. Many greater celestial cultivators had died here. Therefore, Death Valley could be considered as a mystery.
Now that the mystery was solved, no one would have thought that there was a city in Death Valley.
However, this city was very small. It could not be compared to the cities in the outside world that could easily accommodate hundreds of millions of people. At most, this city could only accommodate tens of thousands of people. It was the size of a village.
"Zhao Lingyan and the other four are inside. Let's go in and take a look!" Xiao Fan's gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the greenish-black stone walls and clearly see the situation within the city. After speaking, he lifted his foot and walked towards the entrance of the city.
Walking forward, Xiao Fan raised his hand and pushed open the three meters thick stone door. The weight was immeasurable. Then, he led Akira Yuki and Mu Yang in.
Arriving at this city that was filled with a strange aura, there was only one main road that was paved with green bricks. The end of the road led straight to the City Lord's Mansion. On both sides of the road, there were hundreds of stone houses that stood in a neat and orderly manner.
Every stone house had its door open. Although it was dark inside, one could vaguely see the situation inside. In every stone house, there were dozens to hundreds of dried corpses.
They stood there straight. Their eyes were empty, their bodies were stiff, their clothes were tattered, and their bodies were covered in a thick layer of dust. No one knew how long they had been here.
"These should be the people who had entered Death Valley in the past. They all died here in the end!" Xiao Fan glanced at the dried corpses and pondered for a moment. He came to a realization and immediately spoke.
"Yes, that's one of our Eternal River Sect's heaven's pride. He entered the Chaotic Heart Ridge ten years ago. Due to some special reasons, he entered the Death Valley and never came out. He's also here!" Mu Yang looked at the dried corpse of a young man in one of the stone houses and sighed softly.
Xiao Fan did not say anything else. Instead, he lifted his foot and walked straight ahead. Finally, he arrived at the end of this strange city, at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Mu Yang, wait outside and stay in this circle. Remember, you must not leave this circle. Nothing can hurt you. Then, wait for me to come out!" Xiao Fan said to Mu Yang. At the same time, he raised his hand and a faint dark flame shot out from his palm.
The dark flame landed on the ground and quickly burned under Mu Yang's feet. It quickly meandered and formed a large circle in the blink of an eye, including Mu Yang and the huge Lion's Roar War Chariot.
"Yes, young master!" Mu Yang remembered Xiao Fan's words. As long as he stayed in this circle, no matter how scary it was, he would not leave it.
Xiao Fan nodded and bent down to pick up the Akira Yuki. He then brought the Akira Yuki into the City Lord's Mansion slowly. Mu Yang stood nervously beside the Lion's Roar War Chariot, looking around cautiously. He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and waited for Xiao Fan to come out.
Entering the City Lord's Mansion, there were stone coffins without lids. Inside were similar to the stone houses outside, there were dried corpses.
However, the difference was that even though the mummies here were already dead, Xiao Fan's sharp senses told him that they were far stronger than the mummies outside. If they were still alive, they would at least be at the level of a greater celestial, or perhaps even higher.
At this moment!
"It's rare to have a guest. Please come in!" A very pleasant, magnetic, and magical voice of a man rang out from the stone hall in front of Xiao Fan and into Xiao Fan's ears.
"Alright!" Xiao Fan said. He didn't care about anything and immediately walked into the stone hall.
In the stone hall, a man in white robes with long hair that reached his waist sat beside a stone table. He was as handsome as a woman, and his skin was fairer and smoother than a woman's.
His shirt was slightly open, revealing half of his fair chest. In one hand, he held an ancient scroll, and in the other, a bronze wine cup. The wine in the cup was rippling like blood.
