Demonic Sword Valley
Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. Shen Ge has now reached the Nascent Soul Middle Stage realm. It is all thanks to the existence of those three Top-Grade Spirit Stone; otherwise, Shen Ge would not have been able to break through to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage so quickly.
Peach Blossom Spring Mountain is now barely on the right track. Although there are only a few of them, they have already gained a reputation in the surrounding area.
This reputation was earned by Shen Ge and his group through hard work. Over the years, they have killed no fewer than twenty demonic cultivators, and including those who came looking for trouble, they have killed nearly a hundred.
Currently, Chu He, Jin Ling, and Su Sui have successfully broken through to the Nascent Soul, while Qingfeng is still in seclusion trying to reach the Nascent Soul Realm.
As for Lu Xiu and Zhang Fengge, they are still a bit lacking. Although Lu Xiu has reached the Golden Core Peak, her own foundation is still somewhat lacking. In recent years, she has not dared to touch the Nascent Soul barrier. As for Zhang Fengge, she has only just reached the Late Golden Core Stage and is still far from the Nascent Soul.
However, without the two senior sisters, Peach Blossom Spring Mountain has become much more dull. Everyone is focused on cultivating and rarely gathers together anymore.
After leaving the cave abode, Shen Ge flew to the mountaintop. Thanks to their deliberate interference, the peach grove in this valley had expanded considerably. Looking down from above, it was now covered in pink peach blossoms, carrying with it a fragrant aroma.
Although most of these peach trees are ordinary plants, their flowering period is much longer than that of ordinary peach trees thanks to the enhancement of the array.
After pouring himself a cup of spiritual tea, Shen Ge was about to put down the teapot, but then took out a teacup and poured himself another cup.
Just as the tea was poured, a figure suddenly appeared next to Shen Ge. Su Sui was wearing a light green dress and looked quite lively and agile, but her expression seemed much more composed.
"Has anything happened recently?" Shen Ge asked calmly, taking a sip of tea.
"Nothing serious," Su Sui shook his head and said, "The things Zhao Qi and the others reported back were nothing noteworthy."
Zhao Qi and his group are Rogue Cultivator. Although they are only at the Golden Core Stage, they have extensive connections and are well-informed, which is why Shen Ge and his group cooperate with them.
"A Spirit Stone mine was recently discovered on a mountain peak in the western part of the Thousand Hills Mountain Range. The Li Household and Feng Household of Thousand Hills Town have already taken over the area."
"Oh, by the way, the bounty list in Thousand Hills Town has been cleared by more than half recently. It is said that a certain Devil Cultivator cultivator raped and murdered several junior disciples of the Li Household, and one of them was deeply favored by the Li Household patriarch. So the Li Household patriarch personally took action and killed eighty-three Devil Cultivator this time."
Shen Ge chuckled and said, "They really don't know what's good for them. This is the Li Household's territory, after all, yet they dare to do something that humiliates the Li Household. These Devil Cultivator are truly fearless."
Although Shen Ge didn't have a good impression of the Li Household because of that damned woman Li Yuxin, he had to admit that the Li Household was the strongest in this area, even surpassing the Feng Household, which coexisted with them.
"By the way, Martial Uncle Liuyue sent back some news a while ago, saying that the White Mist Mountain Demonic Sword Valley in the northern part of the Ancient Wilderness will open within the next two years." Su Sui said, as if he had just remembered, taking out a Jade Slip.
Shen Ge took the Jade Slip and glanced at it. According to his senior sister, this Demonic Sword Valley was actually an ancient battlefield. About 70,000 years ago, the righteous and demonic paths and the Demon Race race fought a war that shattered the mountains and rivers and dimmed the sun and moon. The battle was extremely fierce.
Although so many years have passed, that place remains an extremely dangerous and perilous spot, filled with formations, restrictions, Sha Qi, demonic energy, and Yao Qi, and may even contain the remnants of powerful beings.
However, it is dangerous, but there are also many good things inside. Not to mention, the magical treasures of those powerful Law Treasure who participated in the war back then are a huge treasure trove, not to mention anything else.
Su Sui asked, "Master, shall we go?"
"This place will likely attract a lot of people, and with our strength, we probably don't have much of a chance."
"However, since my martial aunt has sent the message, it seems she wants us to go."
After a moment of contemplation, Shen Ge raised an eyebrow and said, "Surrounded by wolves, our strength is barely enough to qualify us to fish in troubled waters, and we're even more likely to become the fish that gets fished out."
Actually, Shen Ge didn't really want to go, after all, the Nascent Soul Realm was a really awkward level of strength, neither good nor bad.
But this news came from her older sister, who knew their strength best. Since she even told them about such a dangerous place, she must have had her reasons.
Shen Ge couldn't quite understand what her sister was planning. Although danger and opportunity go hand in hand, the level of danger this time had exceeded their limits.
Yes, if they were lucky enough to obtain something valuable from inside, it could greatly improve their living conditions, but that could also be a source of trouble.
You must understand that while a common man may be innocent, possessing a treasure can be a crime. They simply don't have the strength to protect these valuable items. Once the news gets out, they could all face annihilation.
After pondering for a long time, Shen Ge finally formed a guess in her mind.
"Don't tell your grandmaster about this," Shen Ge instructed. "I'll go check it out by myself."
Su Sui frowned slightly and said without hesitation, "No, it's too dangerous, Master. I won't let you go alone. Even if you have to go, I'll go with you."
Seeing Shen Ge's displeasure, Su Sui hurriedly said, "Master, I am now Nascent Soul myself, I can help."
Seeing that Su Sui looked determined not to go without her, Shen Ge remained silent for a moment before sighing, "Alright, you can come too."
Su Sui nodded, a hint of excitement in his eyes, but his expression remained largely unchanged.
"Go wake up your Uncle Chu He and tell him to keep an eye on things," Shen Ge instructed.
Su Sui nodded, and then his figure slowly faded away.
Shen Ge sipped his tea and looked down at the peach grove, his expression calm and composed. But if you looked closely, you would see a dazzling sword light, powerful enough to cleave the heavens and the earth, suddenly appearing deep in his eyes.
Pure, powerful, and with a touch of madness.
This trip to Demonic Sword Valley will be a huge gamble, a gamble initiated by my sister!
Since his sister wants to take a gamble, Shen Ge, as her junior brother and, more importantly, her younger brother, has no choice but to go along with her!
Of course, the stakes weren't the treasures inside, but something far more important.
In life, everyone needs to have some pursuits. Cultivation is not just about becoming an immortal, nor is it just about achieving longevity!
There are some things that are more important than these!
