How can simply creating a sect make you invincible?

The next morning, the group packed up and set off again.

The group of six people, two beasts, and one demon arrived at a large rift valley north of the Ten Thousand Demon Forest. The rift valley was tens of thousands of feet long, as if it had been cleaved open by some divine weapon, separating the Ten Thousand Demon Forest from the Demon Beast Forest to the north.

Standing at the edge of the rift valley, everyone looked down. The valley was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see what lay below. The cliffs on both sides were covered with ancient pines and lush green vines, and occasionally, the chirping of birds could be heard from the bottom of the valley.

Hu Qing'er stood aside and introduced softly, "My two divine beast lords, young heroes, this place is called the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons."

"Our demon race has explored this place many times before." She paused, a hint of helplessness in her voice, "but we still haven't found anything. Should we go down and investigate now?"

Han Bingli stood at the edge of the rift valley, looking down at the clouds and mist below.

She frowned slightly, her cool voice carrying a hint of contemplation: "Since we're already here, let's take a look around! For some reason... this place feels quite mysterious to me."

Little Ningyun looked up at Han Bingli and said, "Sister Bingli, I'll listen to you. Let's see everything here before we go back!"

She paused, then puffed out her cheeks and said huffingly, "If we still can't find the Demon Emperor's tomb, I'll go back and have Old Man Zhenxuan lead us here to look for it!"

"His array formations are the most powerful! Sometimes even my double pupils can't break through them. On the Xuanhuang Continent, wherever there's an array formation, it definitely won't escape his eyes!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard what their junior sister said.

Chen Daoxuan's eyes lit up, and he slapped his thigh, shouting, "That's right! How could I forget my master? It's all thanks to you, Junior Sister, that you're so clever. There's really no place in the Xuanhuang Continent that can hide Master's mastery of formations from his eyes."

Ling Yunzhi nodded slightly in agreement, saying, "If Junior Sister can get the Illusion Array Peak Master to come, he'll definitely be able to find the Demon Emperor's Tomb if it truly exists here!"

The group chatted and laughed as they descended to the bottom of the ravine.

The trees at the bottom of the valley are incredibly large, each one dozens of feet tall, with canopies that block out the sun, making the valley dark all year round.

The ground was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves, which felt soft and rustled underfoot.

The group walked forward along the bottom of the rift valley.

Xiao Ningyun used her double pupils to scan the cliff walls and ground on both sides inch by inch. Lu Hou also released his divine sense, covering the surrounding area for several miles.

Jinxiao flapped its small wings and flew in mid-air, its divine phoenix power probing everywhere.

However... after traveling more than halfway through the rift valley, the group still hadn't found anything.

However, they found quite a few rare and precious medicinal herbs, such as the thousand-year-old ice toad grass, the ten-thousand-year-old yin spirit flower, the earth core purple fungus... all kinds of yin-loving medicinal herbs filled half a ring.

Chen Daoxuan grinned from ear to ear: "Hahaha... Even if we can't find the Demon Emperor's tomb, this trip wasn't a waste!"

After walking for a while, they heard a "rumbling" sound of water ahead. After turning through a dense forest, a huge waterfall appeared in front of them.

The waterfall cascades down a cliff thousands of feet high, plunging into a huge pool below.

The group arrived at the waterfall and sat down to rest.

Xiao Ningyun took out a Xuanling Fruit from her storage ring and began to eat it to recover her depleted spiritual power. Although the Double Pupil was powerful, using it continuously for so long had taken a toll on her.

The group then each found a place to rest and recuperate.

Having recovered considerably, Xiao Ningyun began to survey her surroundings. Her double pupils swept across the entire pool, the ground beneath, and the cliff walls on both sides, but she found nothing in the surrounding space.

The only thing that felt off was the area behind the waterfall; there was something about it that I couldn't quite put my finger on.

But he had just looked at the area behind the waterfall; it was just an ordinary cliff face, without any array patterns, spatial fluctuations, or spiritual energy.

"That's strange..."

Xiao Ningyun tilted her head slightly, her eyes once again radiating a terrifying aura as she locked onto the cliff behind the waterfall.

This time, she directly used her supernatural power (double pupils to see through illusions) to examine every detail more closely, and finally discovered something unusual.

But she wasn't sure. Because this rock wall had no spatial fluctuations, no array patterns, and no flow of spiritual energy. Even though she used her supernatural powers and looked so carefully, she could only see a faint distortion and flaw, but she couldn't see through it completely.

Xiao Ningyun turned to look at Lu Hou and Jin Xiao beside her and said, "Lu Hou, Jin Xiao, use your divine sense to investigate the cliff behind the waterfall and see if you can find anything."

Upon hearing Xiao Ningyun's words, Lu Hou, nestled in her arms, slowly raised his head. A divine sense spanning countless ages quietly spread out, sweeping across the entire waterfall cliff.

His divine sense swept over the roaring water curtain and the cliff layers, repeatedly exploring every place.

At the same time, Jinxiao's divine sense also poured down from mid-air, enveloping the entire cliff face and thoroughly exploring every part of it.

But after a moment, Lu Hou shook his head.

Jin Xiao's clear voice also carried a hint of doubt: "Master, this place is completely ordinary! There are no array patterns, no spatial fluctuations, no restrictive aura, nothing unusual at all."

Hearing the conversation between Xiao Ningyun and Jinxiao, everyone present looked puzzled and gathered around.

Han Bingli patted Xiao Ningyun's head and said softly, "Junior Sister, have you discovered something?"

Su Qingruo chimed in, "Yes! Junior Sister, is there something unusual behind the waterfall?"

"That's unlikely, isn't it? What kind of formation could possibly fool the detection of Emperors Lu Hou and Jin Xiao?" Chen Ping'an said.

Xiao Ningyun shook her head: "I'm not sure either. I didn't notice anything the first time I looked at it. I just felt that this place was a little different. Then, when I used my double pupil divine power to look carefully, I discovered a slight spatial distortion."

Upon hearing their junior sister's words, the group exchanged glances, all secretly pleased, for none of them believed she was lying.

Only Han Bingli was deep in thought. She slowly spoke: "If Junior Sister's double pupils are not mistaken, then this cliff is no ordinary place! It even deceived the divine senses of Lu Hou and Jin Xiao, who were both Great Emperors."

"If this is indeed the entrance to the Demon Emperor's tomb, then it makes sense why the demon race hasn't found it for hundreds of thousands of years. Even the Great Emperor's divine sense couldn't detect it, so how could the demon race possibly find it?"

Chen Daoxuan looked at Han Bingli anxiously: "Senior Sister Bingli, what should we do now?"

Han Bingli smiled and looked at Lu Hou: "It's simple. Since we can't be sure if it really is the Demon Emperor's Tomb, let Lu Hou give this cliff a claw strike and we'll know for sure."

Chen Daoxuan slapped his forehead: "That's right! How come I didn't think of something so simple?"

Xiao Ningyun patted Lu Hou's head and instructed, "Little Hou, go and scratch this cliff face and see if you can find anything."
