Valley of the Dead
"Senior, wait for us."
Ning Qi's speed was very fast. Bu Shaofeng and Bu Qingshi chased after him for a few steps before catching up. Ning Qi looked at the two strangely. "The Flying Dragon Squad has been destroyed. There's no need for you to go to the Dead End anymore. You can return to the Desolate Region's market."
"Senior, the Flying Dragon Squad still has many squads. I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the Desolate Region's market before I break through to the First Tribulation Creator."
Bu Shaofeng smiled bitterly.
"Thank you for saving my life twice, Senior!"
Bu Qingshi looked at Ning Qi excitedly. Ning Qi saw something familiar in her eyes. It was the same as the way Little Yue 'er and the others looked at him.
"Alright, then the three of us will go together."
Ning Qi smiled and nodded.
"Thank you, Senior!"
Bu Shaofeng was overjoyed. If it was said that he was forced to go to the Despair of Death at the beginning, he was still worried about his safety, but now, he was much calmer. The strength that Ning Qi displayed was so shocking that even the Five Tribulation Creators didn't dare to act rashly. This made Bu Shaofeng let out a long sigh of relief, thinking that he was extremely lucky. It was impossible for ordinary people to go to the Despair of Death with an expert like Ning Qi, but due to a freak combination of factors, he followed Ning Qi. How could he let go of such an opportunity!
Motivated by this matter, Bu Shaofeng was very active in the rest of the journey. He kept explaining to Ning Qi about the danger zones of each place. On the way, they passed by several very dangerous places. Ning Qi took advantage of his skill and boldness to explore a few of them. In the end, it still took him a lot of effort to come out. This proved that ordinary Immortal Kings wouldn't be able to come out of these places without spending a few decades inside.
Ning Qi's actions made Bu Shaofeng and Bu Shaofeng think more highly of his strength. Their tone was extremely respectful. He probably didn't even have such an attitude when facing the elders of their family.
"Wait!"
One day, Ning Qi suddenly waved his hand to stop the two.
"Is there danger?"
The two's expression changed slightly. They looked around in confusion.
Ning Qi, however, closed his eyes on the spot.
At this moment, Ning Qi's divine will was checking the attribute panel. On his attribute panel, there had always been a Demon Pet column, but this column had not changed for many years. But today, the options in the Demon Pet column had suddenly undergone a huge change!
The names of Ning Zi and the others had changed!
Violet Lightning Bird · Spirit.
Wind Chasing Horse · Spirit.
Dragon Seeking Mouse · Spirit.
Vajra Golem – Spirit.
The God of the Styx.
The ancient Skydragon.
These four fellows, who had followed Ning Qi since the beginning and had been trained and transformed by Little Six in the Demon Pet Space, suddenly had the word 'Spirit' behind their names. Ning Qi didn't know what the word 'Spirit' represented, but Ning Qi had a premonition that Ning Zi and the others had already completed a stage in their cultivation.
As for the little octopus of the God of the River Styx, there was no change at all. Before going to the Netherworld, Ning Qi did not plan to let it out, so he let Little Six help train it in the Demon Pet Space.
Bu Shaofeng and his sister were relieved when they saw Ning Qi meditating with his eyes closed and there seemed to be no danger nearby. They stood there quietly and waited.
After a while, Ning Qi opened his eyes and said to the two with a smile, "Let's go. Let's continue on our way."
Time flowed by and half a year soon passed. During this time, Ning Qi's group of three encountered some foreign race cultivators. Their destination was the Great Market Square of the Desolate Domain. However, these foreign race cultivators only glanced at Ning Qi's group of three before avoiding them. They didn't choose to provoke them.
Ning Qi was somewhat puzzled. Later on, when he saw Bu Shaofeng and his sister, he vaguely understood why the alien cultivators had avoided them.
Three people, two of which were at the half-step Creation realm and the early-stage Dharma Characteristic realm. Such a team was definitely extremely odd in a perilous land.
Moreover, they could not see through Ning Qi's cultivation, so they naturally did not dare to go forward rashly. These alien cultivators brought a large number of immortal herbs, spiritual herbs, and heavenly treasures to the Desolate Domain's market to exchange for elixirs. Before they could determine the other party's cultivation, they chose to avoid them.
After understanding this, Ning Qi deliberately emitted a trace of the Second Tribulation Creator's aura and continued to lead the two on their way. As a result, when they reached the Valley of the Dead, they did not encounter any other alien cultivators. Instead, they saw many human cultivators, but everyone was hurrying on their own. Some of them just looked at Ning Qi and company curiously and did not rashly make contact.
It had been more than a year since they set off from the Desolate Domain's market. Along the way, because of Bu Shaofeng, Ning Qi avoided an ancient forbidden land that was said to even be a Nine Tribulation Creator. Bu Shaofeng's value was reflected in this place. If Ning Qi fell into it, even if he did not die, it would probably take him several years to come out.
"The smell of Corpse Qi is very strong …"
Standing at the entrance of the Valley of the Dead, Ning Qi closed his eyes to sense the aura inside. This kind of stench of Corpse Qi was poisonous. If one inhaled a few more breaths, it could even cause a cultivator with a slightly lower cultivation to be poisoned to death. At that time, they would become a member of the Valley of the Dead.
Bu Shaofeng and his sister stood behind Ning Qi. Their expressions gradually became solemn. They could not go around this Valley of the Dead, so they could only choose to cross it. Then, there would probably be a fierce battle. They had to rely on Ning Qi to have a chance to cross this Valley of the Dead.
At the entrance of the Valley of the Dead, there were about two hundred cultivators scattered around. After all, this was the first dangerous place on the way to the Despair of Death. Many cultivators did not rashly enter, but waited on the spot for an opportunity. Bu Shaofeng said that every year when the Yang Qi was the strongest, many zombies in the Valley of the Dead would sneak into the ground. At that time, it would be the best opportunity to cross the Valley of the Dead!
Ning Qi glanced around and did not see Xiao Wuye and the others. Obviously, the cultivators of the seven major sects had most likely crossed the Valley of the Dead.
"Senior, they are also here."
Bu Shaofeng said in a low voice.
Ning Qi nodded lightly. His gaze fell on Void Butcherer and the others who were looking at the three of them in surprise. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile.
Void Butcherer and the others were shocked and confused. Why did Ning Qi and the others not die in the hands of Old Devil Du? Seeing Ning Qi smiling at them, a few of them showed a trace of embarrassment and turned their heads away.
"Interesting."
Wan Long looked at Ning Qi with a smile that was not a smile, and then looked at Yu Jian.
Yu Jian's lips moved slightly as he transmitted his voice, "This person's methods are not simple. We were the first to give up on him, so we must guard against him taking revenge on the three of us."
"It doesn't matter. If he dares to attack, I will send him on his way. We have arrived at the Valley of the Dead. We only need to wait for the day when the Yang Qi is the strongest to complete our mission."
Wan Long smiled slightly.
"Mission?"
