The sudden sound made the entire valley even colder and weirder. Especially under the night sky, the ancient palaces were more like dangerous exotic beasts hibernating here.

Xiao Chen held his breath. The black winds outside still hadn’t dispersed. Although he didn’t dare to enter, it was as if he was waiting for him to leave.

And in that valley, I don’t know what kind of terrifying existence there is. That voice just now sounded like an old man …

That’s impossible. Was he from ten thousand years ago?

“I repeat, people below the Twelve Realms are not allowed to come in and die. If you don’t scram, I will destroy your primordial spirit with a single palm!”

Just as Xiao Chen was puzzled, the ice-cold old man’s voice rang out again. This time, a powerful aura came out, causing him to feel a little depressed even his breathing. He even suddenly had the thought of leaving immediately.

But soon, the danger around him calmed him down. The black wind outside was still there. It was really dangerous to leave like this. The voice of the old man in the valley did not seem to be the ancient language spoken ten thousands of years ago.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen calmed down and cupped his hands towards the depths of the pitch-black valley. He said tentatively, “I am was chased by the black wind outside. He had no choice but to barge into the valley and disturb Senior Qing Ning. Don’t blame him. When the black wind retreats, I am will immediately leave.”

The voice entered the valley. It was empty and quiet. After a while, the cold old man’s voice sounded again. “No matter why you barged into the valley, I don’t care. Quickly leave. Don’t say anything else!”

A powerful aura surged out. If it was an ordinary person, they would have been scared to death long ago. However, Xiao Chen had experienced a lot of life and death in the past. He was calm now. He recalled that the other party had just said that he was below the Twelve Realms. Could it be that he was referring to the Twelve Realms of a Sage?

No one below the Twelve Realms is allowed to enter this valley. This means that only those who reach the Twelve Realms of the Saint Realm, that is, the highest realm of the Saint Realm, or those above the Twelve Realms, that is, those who step into the legendary Outer Realm, are qualified to enter this valley?

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen felt even more exaggerated. Even though a large amount of Spiritual Qi had poured into the heavens and the earth, and everyone’s cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds, the Twelve Realms weren’t just casually speaking.

Once one stepped into the Sage realm, then each of the twelve realms was completely different. Some people had spent hundreds or even thousands of years to reach the Sage realm, but in the end, they might spend their entire lives, and it would be difficult for them to break through to the third realm.

As for the experts of the third realm, they were undoubtedly close to the peak, let alone the fourth realm, the fifth realm … As for the three Great Saint realms above the ninth realm, they were already at the legendary realm. Perhaps only the old monsters from thousands of years ago had that cultivation. Of course, the prerequisite was that they were still alive.

At this moment, the old man in the valley was at the twelve realms. He was indeed exaggerating. When he thought of this, Xiao Chen was even more fearless. Even he felt that the opponent was bluffing with this oppressive aura.

“May I know how to address Senior Valley?”

Xiao Chen cupped his hands towards the valley once more. Although he was calm now, the cultivation of the person in the valley was still unknown. Even without the cultivation of the Twelve Realms, even a newcomer to the Sage realm was not something he could deal with now. Therefore, his words were still courteous.

“Hmph! My name, you’re just a young boy, you don’t deserve to know. Get lost!”

A cold voice that was still sharp could be heard. This time, Xiao Chen couldn’t help but frown. At this moment, a “buzzing” sound suddenly came from behind him. The black wind outside the valley actually had the potential to barge in, but it was as if he was afraid of something in the valley.

Xiao Chen gradually felt that something was wrong. He had already witnessed the horror of the black wind. If he continued to stay at the entrance of the valley, the black wind could break in at any time. He had to head deeper into the valley. When dawn came, this strange black wind would no longer be able to see him and would definitely leave.

However, what taboos were there in this valley? The ancient palaces on both sides were extremely strict, and there was also the mysterious old man in the depths of the valley …

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen felt his scalp go numb. Right now, there was a jackal in front of him, a tiger leopard behind him, and neither entering nor retreating. What was the best way to teach him?

“Buzz buzz …”

Suddenly, the black wind outside the valley came closer. Xiao Chen frowned and made a decision. He had to hide in the valley for a while, regardless of what was inside …

However, just as he took a step forward, another aura like Mount Tai pressed down from the depths of the valley, “Brat, if you dare to take another step forward, I will kill you with one palm!”

Black Wind pressed down step by step behind him. This time, Xiao Chen couldn’t care less. He cupped his hands in the valley and said, “I am is truly helpless. Senior, I have offended you.”

After walking forward for a while, he saw that the ancient palaces on both sides of the valley were extremely strict. Xiao Chen was paying close attention to the old man in the depths of the valley while carefully observing the ancient palaces on both sides. He thought to himself, “These ancient palaces have very different styles. Could it really be passed down from ancient times?”

Legend has it that it was precisely because the Ancient Oriental Cultivation World was shattered that all human experts had perished. Thus, 10,000 years ago, the Heaven Realm God Race enslaved mortals, causing floods and plagues to descend to punish those who resisted. Only when Qing Emperor appeared did this period of Empyrean God’s rule over the human world completely end, thus opening up a prosperous era in Xianyuan.

Could it be that the ancient palaces in this valley had once lived in the Empyrean God Realm?

Just as Xiao Chen was puzzled, the old man’s cold voice once again came from the depths of the valley. “Brat … are you really not afraid of death? Do you not believe that this old man will kill you with one palm!”

Xiao Chen regained his senses, but this time, he ignored the opponent. Although the oppressive aura that was as heavy as Mount Tai was still there, the opponent had said that he would be annihilated with a single palm. This sentence had been said no less than seven or eight times, but he still hadn’t seen a palm. He was most likely bluffing.

At this moment, he gradually understood that what the strange black wind was afraid of at the entrance of the valley earlier was not the old man in the depths of the valley. It could be the ancient palaces in the valley. What exactly was inside these ancient palaces?

Right now, Xiao Chen didn’t dare to barge into the valley recklessly. After about an incense stick of time, he finally arrived at the depths of the valley. Presumably, the black wind outside wouldn’t dare to chase after him.

At this moment, in the sky, the bright moon was like a disk. The moonlight illuminated the entire valley flawlessly. In front of him, a grand palace appeared.

Xiao Chen held his breath and withdrew all of his aura. He thought to himself that the mysterious old man should be in this palace.

This time, he dared to walk up the stairs. After walking down the stairs, he saw carved jade railings outside the hall. Even after so many years, this palace was still so intact. Could it be that such a grand palace was the residence of the previous emperor?

“Within ten steps, kill without mercy!”

Just as he approached the palace gate, the cold old man’s voice rang out again. At the same time, an aura as cold as a sharp light rushed towards him!

Xiao Chen felt slightly stifled. Within ten steps, there was no mercy … No, why was this sentence so familiar? Yes, I used to say this a lot …

However, at this moment, he determined that the old man inside was bluffing. From the valley entrance to here, he had said that he wanted to kill him no less than ten times, but now, he hadn’t made a move. It was a bit strange.

However, he still didn’t dare to be careless at this moment. After condensing a layer of true energy on his body, he walked towards the palace.

When they arrived at the palace, they saw that although the palace was large, its walls were bleak. It was no longer as glorious as before. Waves of cold wind blew into the palace and silently knocked on the walls, giving them a feeling of loneliness and vicissitudes.

Could it be that this place used to be the residence of an ancient emperor?

At this moment, it was unknown if it was an illusion or something. Even Di Gu Sword seemed to have sensed something.

The huge palace was empty, but where was the old man just now?

Xiao Chen swept his divine sense, but there was no one in the palace. There was only a white bone at the head of the palace.

In the darkness, the white bone emitted a faint light, like jade, and it also emitted an indescribable immortal energy …

This!

Xiao Chen’s heart trembled. This was not the bone of a cultivator in the mortal world. This was the skeleton of an immortal!

“Brat, take another step forward. Don’t blame this old man for being impolite!”

At this moment, the cold old man’s voice sounded again, echoing in the spacious hall. At this moment, Xiao Chen was certain that the voice came from the white bone.

But … impossible!

The ancient immortals and devils had all passed away. Once upon a time, this immortal had long since passed away, leaving behind only such an unmelted bone. It was impossible for him to have any consciousness. Then who was the old man who spoke?

Xiao Chen slowly became vigilant and slowly approached the hall’s head. His voice also became a little cold, “Who exactly are you? And why are you occupying this hall?”

“Brat … don’t be so presumptuous!”

Right at this moment, the white bone suddenly stood up. Two dark green rays of light suddenly blossomed from the hole in its eyes. At the same time, an extremely strong aura was emitted, causing the entire hall to gale endlessly.

At this moment, Xiao Chen felt suffocated by the terrifying aura. Even his heart was beating violently. It was as if a single aura could crush him. What kind of terrifying cultivation level was this? For the time being, he should be at least at the Six Realms of the Sage Realm or above before he could emit such a terrifying aura.

Xiao Chen felt more and more difficult to breathe. If it was an ordinary person, even if they had a Quasi-Sage cultivation, they would most likely be frightened to the point of crawling on the ground by this Saint realm aura.

Suddenly, he realized that he was unable to move. It was as if he was bound by some kind of thought. At this moment, he immediately felt that something was wrong. Without hesitation, the Undying Concept of Immortality was activated in an instant!

With him as the center, a gust of wind suddenly formed. The Undying Concept surged, as if it had broken through the will that bound him. The entire palace trembled!

After getting rid of this control, Xiao Chen’s back was covered in cold sweat. The thought that bound him just now … was so strong!

If it wasn’t for his comprehension of the Undying Concept, it would be hard to imagine what the consequences would be. If it was an ordinary person, the moment they were controlled by that thought, even their souls would have been sucked away.
