Immortality Cultivation: I can use my clansmen’s energy and blood to add points.

They decided to take a short break and then continue their journey of cultivating immortals.

After resting, Luo Chen and the other two decided to go to the library of Tianji Pavilion, which contained countless ancient books and secret techniques, which might provide them with new inspiration for cultivation.

In the library, there were many bookshelves and ancient books piled up like mountains. Luo Chen, Qing Shuang and Hong Ling each picked some books that interested them and began to read them. They were immersed in the ocean of knowledge and constantly absorbed the wisdom of their predecessors.

Just as they were concentrating on reading, a familiar voice sounded behind them: "You three, it seems that this retreat has been quite effective."

The three turned around and saw that it was Elder Xuanjizi. They quickly stood up and saluted.

"Thank you for your concern, Elder. We have indeed gained something." Luo Chen replied respectfully.

Xuanjizi smiled and nodded, then said: "I have seen your efforts, but the road to immortality is not just about closed-door training, it also requires experience and actual combat. I have a task here that may be helpful to you."

After hearing this, Luo Chen and the other two had anticipation glittering in their eyes.

They knew that the task assigned to them by Elder Xuanjizi would not be easy, but it was also a great opportunity for them to improve their cultivation and test their own strength.

"Please enlighten me, Elder." Qingshuang said seriously.

Xuanjizi took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Luo Chen, "This is a mission to go to the Nether Valley. There have been some abnormal situations in the Nether Valley recently, and you need to go investigate."

Luo Chen took the scroll, unfolded it, and saw that it recorded in detail the geographical location of the Nether Valley and some known situations.

He nodded, indicating that he understood the content of the task.

"You guys get ready and set off early tomorrow morning." After Xuanjizi said this, he turned and left the library.

Luo Chen, Qingshuang and Hongling smiled at each other, they knew that a new adventure was about to begin.

They regarded this mission as a rare opportunity for training and decided to give it their all.

The next morning, Luo Chen and the other two packed their bags and set out on their journey to Nether Valley.

They know that what awaits them ahead will be unknown challenges and opportunities.

But no matter what difficulties they encounter, they will overcome them hand in hand, because they believe that as long as they are united, nothing is impossible.

On the way to Nether Valley, Luo Chen and the other two exchanged their cultivation experiences with each other as they traveled.

Their conversation was lighthearted and filled with laughter.

For them, this journey is not only an experience, but also a spiritual relaxation and pleasure.

After several days of trekking, they finally arrived at the entrance of the Nether Valley.

The Nether Valley is located in a desolate mountain range. The valley entrance is always shrouded in a layer of light mist, making the entire valley look gloomy and mysterious.

Luo Chen and the other two stood at the entrance of the valley, looked at each other, and then stepped firmly into the Nether Valley.

They know that from this moment on, they will face unknown challenges, but they also believe that as long as they unite as one, they will be able to overcome all difficulties.

In the Nether Valley, there were gusts of cold wind and some strange noises could be heard from time to time.

Luo Chen and the other two moved forward cautiously, remaining vigilant at all times.

They knew that in a place like this, any negligence could have fatal consequences.

Not long after they went deep into the valley, suddenly, a strong gust of cold wind blew from the front, mixed with countless ghost shadows.

Luo Chen and the other two immediately assumed fighting stances, ready to deal with this sudden attack.

"Be careful, these ghost shadows seem to be formed by condensed negative energy and are very dangerous." Qingshuang warned.

Luo Chen nodded, his eyes sharp as a sword as he scanned the surrounding environment.

Hongling gripped the hilt of her sword tightly, the tip of the sword trembling slightly, as if looking for the best time to attack.

Qingshuang closed his eyes. His spiritual sense became unusually sharp at this moment as he tried to sense the ghostly shadows hidden in the gloomy wind.

"We have to find the source of these ghostly shadows." Luo Chen said in a deep voice, his voice sounding particularly firm in the gloomy wind.

Hongling nodded slightly. Although her swordsmanship was very agile, she also felt a little nervous in this environment.

She knew that these ghosts were not ordinary spirits, and their power far exceeded that of ordinary evil creatures.

Qingshuang opened his eyes, and there was a hint of deep light in his gaze.

"I feel it. They seem to be coming from the depths of the valley. We have to move forward carefully."

The three of them moved forward slowly, taking every step with extreme caution.

The cold wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the number of ghosts was increasing. They seemed to be trying to stop Luo Chen and his group from advancing.

"These guys don't seem to want us to go deep into the valley." Hongling said with a frown.

“That proves we are on the right track.

Luo Chen replied, a determined gleam in his eyes.

As they continued to move forward, the ghost's attacks became more and more fierce.

Luo Chen brandished the Silver Moon Ice Blade, and every swing was accompanied by a chill that froze the approaching ghosts into ice cubes.

Hongling's swordsmanship was like dancing, agile and deadly, and every sword accurately hit the ghost's vital points.

Qingshuang used the secret technique of Tianji Lock to construct a series of defensive barriers to resist the invasion of cold winds and ghosts.

After a fierce battle, they finally came to an open area.

The yin energy here is more intense and the ghost shadows are more dense.

In front of them, a huge stone door appeared. It was engraved with ancient runes and emitted a faint light.

"It seems that this is the secret of the Nether Valley." Luo Chen said, staring at the stone gate.

Hongling and Qingshuang also nodded. They knew that the next challenges would be even more severe.

"We have to find a way to open this door." Qingshuang said, his eyes falling on the runes on the stone door.

Luo Chen walked forward and looked at the rune carefully.

He discovered that these runes seemed to have some connection with the Silver Moon Ice Blade secret technique.

He tried to inject his spiritual energy into the rune, and the rune began to glow faintly, and the stone door slowly opened.

"It seems that your Silver Moon Ice Blade secret technique is inextricably linked to the runes here." Hong Ling said in surprise.

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Perhaps this is God's will, allowing us to enter here."

The three of them walked into the stone gate carefully, and inside was a huge cave.

In the center of the cave, there is a huge pool that emits a faint blue light, as if something is sleeping in it.

"There seems to be something in this pool." Qingshuang said vigilantly.

Luo Chen and Hong Ling also noticed something strange in the pool. They slowly approached and tried to see clearly what was going on in the pool.

Suddenly, ripples appeared in the pool and a huge figure slowly rose from the water.

It was a huge ghost, its body was translucent, and it exuded a strong Yin aura. "Be careful, this ghost has extraordinary power," Luo Chen warned.

The ghost let out a low growl, its eyes flashing with anger.

It stretched out its hand, and a strong gust of cold wind blew towards Luo Chen and the others.

The three reacted immediately, Luo Chen brandished the Silver Moon Ice Blade, Hong Ling danced with her sword, and Qing Shuang released the secret technique of Heavenly Secret Lock, trying to lock the ghost's movements.

The power of the ghost seemed to be stronger than they expected. Although Luo Chen's Silver Moon Ice Blade could freeze the cold wind, every attack was like fighting against an iceberg.

Although Hongling's swordsmanship is agile, her attacks seem insignificant when facing the ghost's huge body.

Although Qingshuang's secret technique of locking the ghost can temporarily restrict the ghost's movements, the ghost's power seems to be able to easily break free from the restraints.

"We must find its weakness!" Luo Chen shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the cave.

Hong Ling nodded, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, "I will attract its attention, you find a chance to attack!"

After saying that, Hongling's figure flashed, and like a red lightning, she rushed straight towards the ghost.

Her swordsmanship became more wild, and each sword strike was accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air, trying to anger the ghost and make it reveal a flaw.

The ghost was indeed angered by Hongling's attack. It let out a deafening roar and waved its huge hands, bringing up gusts of cold wind.

Although Hongling is agile, she seems so small in front of this power.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang did not hesitate at all, they knew this was their only chance.

Luo Chen swung the Silver Moon Ice Blade again. This time, he injected all his spiritual energy into the blade. The ice blade emitted a dazzling light, as if it could freeze everything.

Qingshuang concentrated his mind, and his secret technique of Tianji Lock reached its peak at this moment. Chains emerged from the void and tightly wrapped around the ghost.

The ghost's movements became noticeably slower and it struggled angrily, but the chains only grew tighter.

Luo Chen seized the opportunity, and the Silver Moon Ice Blade pierced the ghost's heart like a meteor across the night sky.

Just as the ice blade was about to touch the ghost, a powerful yin energy suddenly burst out from the ghost's body, knocking Luo Chen and Qingshuang away.

Seeing this, Hongling immediately flew up and caught Luo Chen, while Qingshuang steadied herself when she landed.

"Its power is too strong, we have to find another way." Luo Chen said breathlessly.

The three of them stepped back and re-examined the ghost.

They knew that simple physical attacks had limited effects on ghosts, and they had to find its source.

"Perhaps, we should start with this pool." Qingshuang murmured, "The blue light in this pool seems to have some connection with ghosts."

Luo Chen and Hong Ling looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

But at this time, they had no better choice.

So, the three decided to try to destroy the pool to see if they could weaken the ghost's power.

They approached the pool again, and this time, instead of attacking the ghost directly, they focused their attention on the blue light in the pool.

Luo Chen tried to use the cold air of the Silver Moon Ice Blade to freeze the pool, while Hong Ling used sword energy to stir the water in the pool.

Qingshuang once again used the secret technique of the Heavenly Secret Lock. This time, he wrapped the other end of the chain around the edge of the pool, trying to seal off the entire pool.

As they worked hard, the blue light in the pool began to dim, and the ghost seemed to feel threatened, it roared even more angrily, trying to stop their actions.

But Luo Chen and his men did not back down, because they knew this was their only chance.

With their combined efforts, the blue light in the pool finally disappeared completely, and the ghost's body began to become transparent, and its power gradually dissipated.

Finally, with an unwilling roar, the ghost completely dissipated into the air.

The moment the ghost disappeared, everyone in the cave seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Luo Chen, Hong Ling and Qing Shuang smiled at each other. Although they were tired, there was a gleam of victory in their eyes.

"We did it." There was a hint of disbelief in Hongling's voice.

"Yes, we did." Luo Chen responded, his eyes turned to Qing Shuang, "Without your Tianji Lock Secret Technique, we would not have been able to find a solution so quickly."

Qing Shuang smiled slightly and shook her head, "Without your courage and persistence, I would not be able to exert the maximum power of the secret technique."

The three of them walked slowly towards the pool. It had now returned to its calm state, the blue light had disappeared, leaving only the clear water.

Luo Chen squatted down, reached out to touch the water, and felt the flow of spiritual energy in it.

"This seems to be an energy node." Luo Chen pondered, "The ghost's power is drawn from here."

Hong Ling nodded, "So, what should we do next?"

"We need to seal this node completely to prevent similar existence from appearing in the future," Qingshuang suggested.

Luo Chen stood up, looked around, and then took out an ancient jade talisman from his arms.

"I got this jade talisman from my master. It is said that it can be used to seal unstable energy nodes."

Hongling and Qingshuang both nodded in agreement.

Luo Chen placed the jade talisman in the middle of the pool and began to chant the ancient spell.

As the spell continued, the jade talisman began to emit a soft light, which gradually spread and covered the entire pool.

"seal up!"

Luo Chen shouted, and the jade talisman shone brightly. Complex runes flew out of the jade talisman and merged into the pool.

The water in the pool began to rotate, forming a vortex, and eventually a small black hole appeared in the center of the vortex, sucking all the energy into it.

When the last bit of energy was sucked into the black hole, the black hole slowly disappeared, and the light of the jade talisman gradually dimmed.

Luo Chen picked up the jade talisman and found that it had become dim.

"It seems that the seal has been successful." Luo Chen said.

Hongling and Qingshuang both breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that although this adventure was full of dangers, the final result was worth it.

"We should go back." Luo Chen suggested, "The elders are still waiting for our news."

The three of them turned around and prepared to leave this cave that was once full of dangers.

However, just as they were about to step out of the cave, the ground suddenly shook.

"What's going on?" Hongling asked nervously.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang also looked confused. They quickly looked around, trying to find the source of the vibration.

"Is there something else?" There was a hint of uneasiness in Qingshuang's voice.

The ground was shaking more and more, and debris began to fall from the top of the cave. (End of this chapter)
