In short, these words naturally could not be completely believed, but the reason why these rumors could spread was that there must be some basis for them. Lu Xiaotian's so-called Evil Wind Valley was a dark place, and as for the words of the soul inside the Soul Confining Pearl, they could not be completely believed. One should not have the heart to harm others, but one must always guard against others. Lu Xiaotian would not choose to simply believe a stranger.
To summarize the middle-aged man's words, Qi Refining Stage cultivators simply did not have the strength to enter, and could only guess based on some rumors. There were also some Qi Refining Stage cultivators who were brought to the periphery of the Evil Wind Valley, and from a distance, they saw the ghosts of the Evil Wind Valley chasing after Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators. Lu Xiaotian had heard of some of the ghosts, but in any case, he finally had a preliminary understanding of the Evil Spirit Valley, although it was still very one-sided, but it did not matter.
"S-Senior, that's all I know. Do you have anything else you want to ask?" The middle-aged man at this time realized that his words were somewhat irrelevant, and only after he finished speaking did he realize it. At this time, he was worried that Lu Xiaotian would be angry, so he carefully asked.
"Do you know if there are any large clans, sects, or forces around the Evil Wind Valley? Have there been any large-scale movements recently? "Lu Xiaotian asked again.
"This is simple, within a thousand miles of the Evil Wind Valley, there are no Immortal Sects with thousands of years of inheritance, but there are a few forces that are not small, I heard that there are Black Fox Stronghold, Zhu Jia Ling, and Dark Beauty Sect, all of which have many Foundation Establishment Stage seniors. As for the rumored Ancestor Jin Dan, I have never heard of him, and even if there were, Senior would know, but with this junior's identity, I would not know." The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Two years ago, Black Fox Stronghold and Dark Beauty Sect had a joint operation, but I heard that they were attacked by Yin Corpses, and suffered heavy losses, so they had to withdraw. Occasionally, some foreign cultivators come here, but most of them are gloomy, unlike Senior who makes people feel like they are bathing in the spring breeze. "
In the face of the middle-aged man's blatant flattery, Lu Xiaotian smiled. To be able to come to a place like the Chillywind Valley, one must have either cultivated some kind of extremely cold Cultivation Method or walked the path of ghost cultivators. Therefore, their aura was naturally incomparably cold. Lu Xiaotian suddenly realized that his current appearance might not be suitable for entering the Chillywind Valley. It seemed that he would have to change his appearance.
Having learned his lesson, the middle-aged man was much more well-behaved this time. He was no longer as eloquent as before. Since Lu Xiaotian didn't ask, he also kept his mouth shut. He didn't want to make a mistake and bring disaster upon himself.
"Alright, I just wanted to ask you some questions. Since what you said is of some use, I'll give you the things inside." Lu Xiaotian tossed a few small jade boxes to the middle-aged man.
When the middle-aged man came back to his senses, Lu Xiaotian had already flown away on his flying sword, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The middle-aged man opened one of the jade boxes and looked inside. His complexion suddenly changed. It turned out to be an extremely important supplementary ingredient for refining the Building Foundation Dan. Its importance was second only to the purple radish ginseng. It was extremely rare for a Qi Refining Stage cultivator. There were also two slightly more ordinary ingredients, but they were worth dozens of low-grade spirit stones altogether. In the past, he had to work himself to death, take a lot of risks, and form teams to kill wild beasts, but he never had such a big harvest. He didn't expect that he would get such a rich harvest just by speaking a few words. The middle aged man, Zhou Daxiong, secretly rejoiced, but he quickly put away the jade boxes into his storage pouch vigilantly. His two eyes scanned the surroundings, and after discovering that there were no other cultivators, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
"Thank God, I didn't expect that I, Zhou Daxiong, would get lucky and meet a noble." After putting away the jade boxes, Zhou Daxiong put his palms together with a happy expression.
"Daxiong, was that Senior Immortal very powerful? You are also a cultivator, and he didn't look very old, but you seemed to be very respectful to him. "After Lu Xiaotian left, the old man from before came forward and asked.
"He is more than powerful. I don't know how many people like me can be killed with a slap. He is a Foundation Establishment expert and has a lifespan of two to three hundred years. I, your son, can only look up to him. If our Zhou Clan can produce a Foundation Establishment cultivator in this lifetime, then even the old Emperor can only look up to our Zhou Clan." Zhou Daxiong resentfully said.
"He's that powerful?" The old man and the several peddlers were shocked. The Emperor was already a great figure in their eyes, but they didn't expect that in front of this Senior Immortal, he was only a small character. But thinking about it, this kind of cultivator who could fly in the sky and burrow into the earth seemed much more free and unfettered than the Emperor who was a mortal. But these people still didn't understand the bloody and cruel world of cultivators.
In a huge valley, there were strange stones all around and towering trees that blocked the sunlight above. From time to time, there would be a few frightening wolf howls. In addition to the thin layer of smoke on the ground, it made this place look even more gloomy.
"Puff …" A cold youth with a thin face wearing a black cloak flicked a stream of energy from his finger.
A small green insect that had jumped up from a crack in the rock was hit by the energy. The insect exuded a few drops of green liquid and with a sharp squeak, it drilled back into the ground.
The cold youth snorted and continued to carefully walk forward. This stern young man in a black cloak was naturally Lu Xiaotian. As early as seven days ago, after parting ways with the rough looking middle-aged man, Zhou Daxiong, he came to the periphery of the Chillywind Valley not long after. He inquired about the few local forces in the vicinity, and it was roughly similar to what Zhou Daxiong had said. There weren't any big sects or clans in this area, but each place nurtured its own people. It was the same for cultivators. They would all choose an environment that was beneficial to them. Those who could come to this Chillywind Valley all year round had indeed cultivated some cold and evil Cultivation Methods, or were simply ghost cultivators. Lu Xiaotian had been very careful along the way. He had already encountered a few waves of people, but he had avoided them all. If possible, he would try his best to avoid conflict with the other party. After all, there were only a few small forces entrenched here, but the other party had a lot of people, and it would be troublesome to provoke them. Moreover, there were two times when he saw several waves of people killing each other, and it was also incomparably bloody and cruel.
