Kunlun, the ancestral mountain, had always been humanity's number one divine mountain. In the past, it was also the most powerful holy land on the ancestral planet. Tens of thousands of people worshipped it.
Jiang Xiaofan and Jiangchen had left Penglai Immortal Island and now appeared here. From a distance, Kunlun Mountain looked majestic and majestic. Wisps of mist swirled around it, making it seem very mysterious.
"Lord Sagely Heavens, should I awaken them?"
Asked Jiangchen.
Jiang Xiaofan shook his head. "No need. Let's go up and take a look. It's been a long time since I've been here."
"Yes, sir."
Jiangchen nodded, then followed carefully behind.
The two of them ascended the mountain. They didn't use any divine abilities. Instead, they walked up on foot.
"Tsk tsk, these two are dressed well. They look so real. Hey, hey, why don't we take a picture together? "
"Yeah, how much is it?"
Of the four holy lands on the ancestral planet, only Kunlun Mountain was exposed to the outside world all year round. Of course, the true Kunlun Immortal Realm was the core of the holy land. It was hidden and couldn't be shown to the world.
Kunlun Mountain was now a bustling scenic area. Every year, countless tourists would come here. Here, Jiang Xiaofan and Jiangchen's attire didn't attract strange looks from ordinary people. In fact, quite a few people wanted to take pictures with them. After all, there were quite a few people dressed like that in this scenic area.
A lively girl ran over. She looked to be about twenty years old, slender and elegant. Very naturally, she hooked her arm around Jiang Xiaofan's.
"Impudent!"
Jiangchen immediately glared at her.
He was an emperor-level figure, and his body was tall and sturdy. When he roared, the girl jumped in fright. Her face turned pale.
"It's fine. He's just pretending to be my follower to make the scene more realistic."
Jiang Xiaofan explained.
He glanced at Jiangchen, who immediately fell silent. He carefully stood off to the side, looking warily at the girl holding Jiang Xiaofan's arm. It was as if he was afraid she'd eat Jiang Xiaofan alive.
The girl patted her chest. Jiang Xiaofan's words calmed her down. "Your friend is really dedicated. He's dressed so fiercely. He scared me to death."
"Sorry."
Jiang Xiaofan said with a smile.
In this life, he had grown up in this world. Although he did not have the money to travel, he still knew some things about scenic spots. He also knew how to communicate with ordinary people as an ordinary person.
The girl quickly finished taking the photos and left with her friends. Before she left, she gave them 20 yuan for a photo. Jiang Xiaofan handed the money to Jiangchen. "Take it. You can buy two bowls of beef noodles with this."
Jiang Xiaofan handed Jiangchen a piece of paper and looked it over. Suddenly, an awkward expression appeared on his face. Since when did the Holy Heavens know how to make jokes like this?
There were many people in the scenic area, but Jiang Xiaofan didn't care. After some time, they passed through the crowd and appeared in front of a canyon.
There was a stone tablet outside the canyon with a line of modern words carved on it: "Danger ahead, do not approach."
Jiang Xiaofan glanced at them indifferently, then walked into the canyon. Behind him, Jiangchen steadily followed.
Kunlun's scenic area didn't extend to this place, so normally, no one would appear here.
However, as luck would have it, a voice rang out at this moment. "Eh, why are you guys here too?"
Jiang Xiaofan tilted his head and saw two women jogging over, each carrying a small bag.
"Why is it you again?!"
Jiangchen glared.
One of the two women was the girl who'd dragged Jiang Xiaofan to take a photo with her. The other was her friend, about the same age.
"It's me. Stop staring." After their previous encounter, the girl was no longer afraid of Jiangchen. She giggled. "Let me introduce myself. I'm Liu Xiaoxiao. This is my good friend, Lin Yi."
"What are you doing here?"
Jiang Xiaofan asked.
He didn't introduce himself. He seemed very calm.
Liu Xiaoxiao laughed mischievously. "Naturally, we're here to do whatever you're here to do."
Jiang Xiaofan looked at her. "What?"
"Stop pretending. Who here doesn't know about Kunlun's Death Valley? It's called the Gates of Hell. You're here to explore, aren't you?" Liu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. "But why are you here instead of making money in the scenic areas? You didn't bring any tools. What if you get lost and starve to death? You really don't have common sense."
Jiang Xiaofan frowned. "Kunlun's Death Valley?"
He tilted his head and looked at Jiangchen. Kunlun was the ancestral mountain of the human race. It was a sacred place. How could it have anything to do with death?
"This subordinate doesn't know either."
Jiangchen whispered.
Jiang Xiaofan looked at Liu Xiaoxiao and asked, "Can you tell me why this place is called that?"
"You really don't know?"
Liu Xiaoxiao was puzzled.
Jiang Xiaofan shook his head. Although he'd lived in this world for twenty years, he didn't know everything. When Jiangchen saw him shake his head, he hurriedly shook his head as well.
Liu Xiaoxiao and Lin Yi glanced at each other, then said, "There are many legends about Kunlun. This canyon is the most mysterious of them all. In the past, no one who entered came out alive. Over time, it became known as Kunlun's Death Valley, or the Gates of Hell. It's said that the legendary immortals live here! We came to the scenic area to sneak in. "
She and Lin Yi looked like they wanted to give it a try.
Jiang Xiaofan frowned.
"If this place is so dangerous, why did you come here? You're still young. You should leave. Don't make your families worry. " He looked at Liu Xiaoxiao and said, "Most legends about immortals and gods are just rumors. They're too fake and dreamy to be true."
"What do you mean young? You're not much older than us." The two girls pouted. "Besides, you're going to go in too. Why can't we? We've been preparing for a long time. No matter what, we have to go in and take a look."
As they spoke, they clenched their little fists, as if to encourage themselves.
Jiang Xiaofan knew that under normal circumstances, he wouldn't be able to stop the two girls. So, he turned to look at Jiangchen behind him. Jiangchen nodded. Obviously, he understood Jiang Xiaofan's meaning. His eyes faintly turned golden, and a faint, gentle mist overflowed from them.
"Go back. Don't come here again. There are no immortals here, and it's not the Gates of Hell. It's just a very ordinary place. There's no value in coming here."
He said in a low voice.
The two girls looked somewhat dazed and confused. They muttered to themselves, repeating Jiangchen's words. Then, they slowly turned and walked back the way they'd come. Before long, they were completely gone.
"Death Valley."
Jiang Xiaofan muttered.
He looked ahead, his eyes flashing.
Jiangchen's eyes widened. "What are those guys doing? They actually turned Kunlun's paradise into Death Valley. Have they all gone stupid from sleeping? "
He stared ahead, then suddenly felt somewhat awkward and embarrassed. Because he wasn't any better. He'd created a group of zombies.
Jiang Xiaofan didn't say anything. He walked into the valley.
The valley was very wide. It was shrouded in a hazy white mist, and the air was extremely moist. There were many strange flowers and plants growing on the valley floor. They were all rare goods that couldn't be found outside.
After an indeterminate amount of time, many corpses appeared on the ground. There were livestock, birds, and even ferocious beasts.
Jiang Xiaofan frowned.
He continued walking deeper into the valley. Before long, he saw a few more corpses. They were all human. The corpses' eyes were wide open, and their mouths were wide open. They looked like they'd died with everlasting regret. Most puzzling of all, there were no wounds on their bodies.
Jiang Xiaofan's face was expressionless. He glanced at the corpses on the ground, then walked deeper into the valley. The mist around him grew thicker and thicker. Immortal spiritual energy seeped out, and the Great Dao rippled.
Jiang Xiaofan stretched out his right hand. An invisible, colorless barrier appeared in front of him, cutting off his path. He pressed lightly. Instantly, a crisp sound rang out. A spatial rift appeared, flickering with divine light.
"Who goes there?!"
A cold shout came from within.
Several streaks of light flew out, transforming into a few young men. They blocked Jiang Xiaofan's path, their expressions cold and aloof.
"Who are you?!"
One of them stared at Jiang Xiaofan.
Nearby, someone looked behind Jiang Xiaofan. His expression suddenly changed. "The Zombie King, Jiang Chen?!"
The young man who'd been staring at Jiang Xiaofan looked behind Jiang Xiaofan. Suddenly, his expression changed drastically. They didn't know who Jiang Xiaofan was, but they couldn't possibly not know who Jiang Chen was. As far as they knew, Jiang Chen was a demon progenitor who'd existed since the Primordial Era.
"Jiang Chen, how dare you barge into the Kunlun Immortal Realm?! You're courting death! "
Shouted one of them. However, no matter how one looked at it, he seemed fierce on the outside but cowardly on the inside.
"We'll hold them back. Sixth Junior Brother, hurry and report this to the elders and the Valley Lord. Today, we must eliminate this demon and rid the cultivation world of this malignant tumor!"
Barked another.
The one called "Junior Brother" nodded, then hurried back the way they'd come, quickly disappearing. After that, the remaining young men quickly surrounded Jiang Xiaofan and Jiang Chen. They muttered an incantation and activated a dazzling formation.
Jiang Xiaofan flicked his finger, instantly shattering everything.
"You …."
Their expressions changed drastically.
Jiang Xiaofan ignored them. He stepped into the spatial rift. Behind him, Jiang Chen cautiously followed. Soon, the scene before them changed drastically. Immortal mountains stretched out before them, and at the highest point floated a resplendent palace. It radiated a majestic aura of the Dao.
Clang!
Suddenly, boundless sword light flew over. Dense clusters of immortal swords filled the entire space, firmly trapping Jiang Xiaofan and Jiang Chen in the center.
Groups of cultivators rushed out and took up positions around them. They formed hand seals and muttered immortal scriptures. Mysterious runes of light appeared in the air.
"Jiang Chen, you're too arrogant! Do you think the Kunlun Immortal Realm is a place where you can wander as you please?!"
A few figures rushed out of the palace high in the sky. They were none other than the current Valley Lord and the elders of the Kunlun Immortal Realm.
