If those mortals with lower strength go deep into such places, they will indeed die without a burial place.

"There are a lot of poisonous insects and snakes hidden down there, and it seems there are also some spiritual beasts." Qian Lin, who had good eyesight, also saw the various indigenous peoples in the valley. These things were indeed extremely dangerous to ordinary people.

Breathing in the miasma and guarding against poisonous insects attacking from all directions is not an easy task.

Looking at the white bones buried in the soil at the entrance of the valley with only a part of them exposed, Qian Lin couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. This place was really a scary place.

It can't be said that the mother and daughter are in danger of coming to such a place. It is obvious that they can start the feast right away.

"Go down and take a look. I'll clean up the poisonous miasma at the entrance of the valley." Qian Lin stretched out his white right hand and pressed it down slightly.

A trickle of water flowed out from the palm of her hand and rushed towards the valley entrance below, clearing the valley entrance in an instant.

The spring water spiritual energy is the nemesis of all kinds of poisons. Qian Lin is least afraid of the current environment. With the spring water spiritual energy by her side, she is not afraid at all.

The two men put away their flying swords and landed on the soft ground. The environment in this place was really harsh. The plants growing on the ground were all strange and twisted.

"Such bright colors, they must be highly poisonous." As a wood-type cultivator, Ye Qiuhan has a deep understanding of plants. She recognized the prototypes of these plants at just one glance.

In this Youfeng Valley, the appearance of these plants has become strangely distorted, and various toxins have been produced in their bodies. Even plants that were originally not poisonous will become extremely poisonous here.

The miasma that shrouded this place before might have been emitted by these highly poisonous plants.

"How poisonous is it?" Qian Lin asked curiously.

“I’m afraid it can also have an impact on the cultivators in the Body Tempering Realm.” Ye Qiuhan moved his fingers slightly, controlling a thin vine to crush a strange purple flower on the ground.

A little juice was squeezed out of the small flower, and the vine controlled by Ye Qiuhan was immediately dyed purple, and then withered and shriveled after a few breaths.

"It takes effect very quickly and has effects on almost all living things. We really need to be careful." Ye Qiuhan frowned slightly. This is just an ordinary little flower on the ground, but it has such a terrible toxicity. How can other things in the Youfeng Valley be toxic?

That mother and daughter came to a place like this, they were really seeking death.

"Do you think the Demonic Path would choose a place like this as its base camp?" Qian Lin had another guess. Could it be that the Youfeng Valley was one of the Demonic Path's strongholds?

This is a very dangerous place where almost no one comes. Isn't this a good place to use as a base?

As for the demons, there must be people who have the ability to survive in such a desperate situation. Qian Lin believes in them.

"It's possible, but the environment here has been formed over many years, so it's probably not the work of the Demonic Path."

181. Surrender is the best option

"There are bones of various creatures. It seems that there are quite a few animals that have strayed into this place." Qian Lin muttered softly, glancing at an animal skull on the ground.

At first glance, this seems to be just a valley with slightly strange plants, but if you look closely, you can see the horror in it.

Under these strange plants are tons of white bones, not only human bones, but also those of various animals. This terrible valley hunts not only humans, but also other creatures living in these mountains and forests.

As long as they enter here, those weak creatures will no longer have any chance of survival.

"Actually, now that we find this place, we should be able to go back." Looking at the valley entrance that looked like a huge mouth ready to devour someone, Qian Lin said to Ye Qiuhan.

The mother and daughter they were looking for were probably gone.

"But since we're here, we might as well go in and take a look. Maybe we'll find something different." Ye Qiuhan could understand Qian Lin's meaning. This guy just loves adventure!

He was like this before in the Xuanming Ice Sea, he was a complete lunatic.

"Yes." Qian Lin made a few hand seals, and spring water spiritual energy surged out from her side, turning into a thin layer of bubbles that protected the two of them.

The previous cleaning method made too much noise, so it’s better to use it less.

After getting ready, the two stepped into the real Youfeng Valley.

Compared with the strange and terrifying valley entrance, the interior of the Youfeng Valley is not as scary and creepy. Miasma and poisonous substances still exist, but there are much fewer remains of living creatures.

At least after walking for a while, Qian Lin no longer saw any human remains.

Perhaps no living person can walk here at all. Ordinary people have all died outside, and only cultivators with good strength can break through here.

"The miasma seems to be getting thicker." The miasma was only light green before, but as they went deeper into the Youfeng Valley, Ye Qiuhan discovered that the color of the surrounding miasma had gradually turned dark green.

You can tell there is a big problem just by looking at the color. If an ordinary person is exposed to this kind of environment, he would probably die from the poison in the blink of an eye.

However, under the protection of the spring water spiritual energy, these miasma could not get close to them at all.

A brightly colored venomous snake seemed to sense the arrival of its prey. It raised its head alertly and looked in the direction of the noise.

Two humans? The underdeveloped brain drove the venomous snake to crouch down in the bushes, waiting for the two prey to approach.

It had no idea what kind of prey it was waiting for. It only knew that it should sink its fangs into the bodies of these two humans and make the invaders who dared to invade here die in pain.

The poisonous snake stuck out its tongue, but didn't sense any smell. The two humans were like ghosts, not emitting any smell.

What was going on? The venomous snake didn't have time to think, the two girls had already entered its attack range, and without hesitation, the venomous snake ejected itself like a spring.

Then it hit a thin curtain of water head-on.

The water curtain looks thin, but it contains extremely terrifying power. The moment it comes into contact with the poisonous snake, the water curtain reveals its fangs.

The part of the water curtain that came into contact with the poisonous snake began to rotate rapidly, like a meat grinder, grinding the attacking poisonous snake into a ball of meat paste.

"The creatures here are quite aggressive." Qian Lin took a look at the ball of meat paste. An ordinary poisonous snake that was not even a spiritual beast dared to attack her. It really didn't care about its life.

Such attacks have occurred no less than ten times along the way.

All I can say is that beasts are beasts after all, and their intelligence is really hard to evaluate.

Look how smart Xiaobai is as a spiritual animal. Compared with these wild beasts, he is like an immortal.

"Not all wild beasts have the opportunity to become spirit beasts. The conditions here are not that good, so it's normal that there are few spirit beasts." Ye Qiuhan expressed his understanding of this situation. The spiritual energy in this place is thin. Didn't you see that even the Tiandao Sect doesn't care much about this place?

The Spirit Beast Mountain Range in the Eastern Territory is completely different from here. Spirit beasts can be found easily. It is said that there are even powerful spirit beasts of the Venerable level living there.

It’s not like here, where there are only ordinary wild beasts that can’t even be considered spiritual beasts.

"And the wild beasts here are all poisonous creatures... Wait, are these the marks of wheels?" Qian Lin had just said half a sentence when his attention was suddenly attracted by an unusual mark under his feet.

The water flow swept away the debris on the ground, revealing the secret hidden underneath. Just as Qian Lin thought, the traces should have been left by the wheels.

"The soil here seems to be softer than other places, so it left traces here?" Looking in the direction where the wheel traces extended, Qian Lin's expression became interesting.

First of all, these wheel marks could definitely not have been left by wild beasts, as they would not use such tools.

The only people who could leave such traces in the Youfeng Valley could be human beings, and they had to be very powerful humans, at least not below the Yangxin realm.

It seems that the only one who can meet this condition here is the magic path.

"Be prepared, we may encounter the devil at any time."

"Ah."

……

"When will this tree be full? Senior brother is really something. Did he hear me saying bad things about him before, so he made me stay here to do this kind of menial work?" The man in black clothes crossed his chest and looked at the purple giant tree dozens of meters high in front of him with an impatient expression.

He is a cultivator from the Xuanyin Sect, not a tree planter!

"Stop complaining. You have time to complain but no time to help me with the work, right?" Another man in black who had been busy nearby shouted at the complaining man in black, "Hurry up and feed this tree, then take the materials away."

As he spoke, he threw the unconscious person in his hand towards the tree.

Countless vines hung down from the crown of the big tree and pierced into the body of the prey. In the blink of an eye, the poor man's body became shriveled, and the red color on the trunk of the big tree became more intense.

"I know, I know. This tree is really lucky to have good people like us feeding it." The complaining man in black grabbed the tightly tied old man beside him and said with emotion, "It has almost fed the people of two or three towns, why hasn't it made a breakthrough yet?"

The sooner this tree breaks through to the Body Tempering Stage, the sooner they can cut it down and complete their task.

The food of the Demonic Path is not that delicious. The people of the Xuanyin Sect only discovered the existence of such a tree not long ago, and this tree is about to break through to the Body Tempering Realm.

A plant spirit beast in the Body Tempering Realm, and one with extremely strong evil spirit, is a rare treasure in the world for the Xuanyin Sect.

But now the tree is still stuck at the peak of the Yangxin state. After a series of inspections on the tree, the experts from the Xuanyin Sect concluded that the tree is not getting enough nutrition.

The terrible environment of Youfeng Valley is due to this evil tree. And because it has made the surrounding environment like this, this evil tree can only slowly extract spiritual power from the soil and cannot hunt other large prey.

After all, it is just a big tree. Although it can use vines to attack approaching prey, it is too much to expect it to move on its own.

After the people of Xuanyin Sect learned about this, they enthusiastically began to treat the evil tree to a big meal to replenish its nutrition. There were many small towns nearby anyway, so it was no big problem for them to get a few people from these towns to come and feed the tree.

The Tiandao Sect has no energy to take care of the affairs of this small place right now. Aren’t they just a few mortals in a small town? How big of a deal is that?

Didn’t you see that they fed so many people, but the Tiandao Sect still had no reaction at all?

And it looks like this big tree will be able to break through soon. As soon as it completes the breakthrough, the two Body Tempering Realm demon cultivators here will uproot the big tree and take it back to report.

With so much wood, you can make a lot of good things.

"Come to think of it, this mother and daughter should be fed too, right?" The demon who had been complaining before moved his gaze to the mother and daughter lying on the wooden cart. The mother had a good appearance and the daughter looked smart and cute.

But they received an order that they must feed the two people to the tree, or else they would have to kill them.

"I heard it's related to another plan. It's the final finishing touch." The hard-working man in black also remembered this. He walked to the unconscious mother and daughter, stretched out his hand and grabbed the mother, "Hurry up and feed them all."

Everyone here is in a coma, and the demons don't want to be disturbed by the cries of these mortals.

The man in black mercilessly threw the mother towards the giant tree. He watched the woman being sucked dry by the giant tree like the mortals before her, without any mercy in his eyes.

After taking care of one, the next one is this kid.

The man in black stretched out his hand towards the little girl, but he didn't expect that when his hand was about to touch the little girl, the little girl suddenly opened her eyes.

"Don't kill me..." The little girl hugged her body and shouted timidly.

Her big eyes were filled with fear, and her face was pale and bloodless.

She knew that her mother had been killed by these bad guys, and now, these bad guys had set their sights on her and wanted to kill her too.

"You're still awake? Did you not take enough medicine?" The serious man in black shouted at the slacking man in black, but his hands did not stop moving at all and grabbed the little girl who was trying to dodge.

How could a little girl with no cultivation at all escape from the hands of a demon cultivator in the Body Tempering Realm?

"Impossible, I clearly fed everyone a pill. Maybe this girl's physique is different." The man in black said that he would not make such a small mistake. A pill like that was enough to make a mortal sleep for a month.

"What does it matter? She's going to die anyway. At least others won't have to feel the horror of death. This little girl is just unlucky."

The man in black who was slacking off had a grin on his face, as if he had thought of something interesting.

"The vines pierce into your body, and your life is gradually drained away. You watch death gradually approach you. Alas, if you hadn't woken up, you might not have to experience this feeling." The slacking off in black walked to the little girl who was biting her lips with an evil smile, and rubbed her head twice.

"Don't make things more complicated and complete the task quickly. We have been ordered to kill them immediately." The serious man in black couldn't stand the bad taste of the slacking man in black, so he slapped the other's hand away and threw the little girl towards the tree with force.

Am I going to die? The wind blew past her ears, and the little girl could no longer control her emotions. At the last moment of her life, she finally cried out.

She didn't know why her life had become like this, she didn't know why her mother brought her to the terrible jungle like a madman, and she didn't know why there were two men in black waiting in the jungle.

After being forced to take a very bitter pill, the little girl's consciousness fell into darkness, and when she woke up, she was lying on a wooden cart.

She didn't dare to reveal the fact that she was awake. She only dared to open her eyes slightly and peek at the movements of the two men in black. Then she saw how terrifying and evil these two men in black were.

They could actually joke around while throwing people out to feed that scary tree.

And that big tree was so terrifying. The countless vines hanging from its crown could suck a person into a mummy in an instant.

Now, is it finally my turn? The little girl thought to herself.

Mom, I'm coming to accompany you too.

Closing her eyes in despair, the little girl felt a soft and flexible rope-like object wrapped around her waist. Next, the vines should be inserted into my body and suck me dry, right?

But the expected pain did not come. Instead, I felt a little bit of coolness on my face, as if snowflakes were falling on my face.

But it’s obviously not winter now, so why is there snowflakes?

Am I actually dead and now in the afterlife?

The little girl still kept her eyes closed until she heard a very gentle voice sounding in her ears.

"Don't be afraid, it's all over now."

Who is it? The little girl felt like she was in a warm embrace, just like her mother.

She opened her eyes and found herself lying in the arms of an older sister. The older sister had a pleasant smell on her body, which made people want to get close to her.

In front of the eldest sister were countless blood-red tentacles extending from the giant tree, but these tentacles were completely blocked by a layer of bright green barrier and could not advance an inch.

White snowflakes fell from the sky. This abnormal scene filled the little girl's heart with doubts. She turned her head and saw a girl in black with fluttering white hair floating in the air.

Although they were both wearing black clothes, the white-haired girl gave people a completely different feeling from the two men in black.

The little girl didn't know how to describe this feeling. She just felt that after seeing the white-haired girl, her uneasy heart suddenly calmed down.

Safe, she didn't know why she had such a thought, but she did think so.
