Chapter 562 The Secret of Yunxian Immortal Valley
Although the immortal spiritual energy was extremely dense, Mor Wuji didn't see any high-level immortal spiritual herbs. He and Lin Gu separated, as they naturally couldn't crowd together if they wanted to find immortal spiritual herbs.
Lin Gu was at the Xuanxian (Profound Immortal) Perfect stage, and could advance to the Daluo Jinxian (Grand Unity Immortal) stage at any time. No one could threaten her safety in this place. Although Mor Wuji was only at the Xuanxian Initial stage, his strength could be said to be top-notch among the Xuanxian, and he wasn't afraid of travelling alone either.
In fact, the reason why the Yunxian Immortal Valley didn't allow more people to enter was to avoid fighting during the competition.
The Yunxian Immortal Valley was boundless. Each time, less than a hundred people entered, so it could be said that there was no need for anyone to fight. Not to mention fighting, even two people meeting each other wasn't easy.
At the same time, because there was no danger in the Yunxian Immortal Valley, it could be said that among all the immortal spiritual herb secret realms, the Yunxian Immortal Valley was the most desired.
Mor Wuji rushed forward, and his divine sense stretched out without limit.
But after several days, Mor Wuji frowned slightly. In the days since he had entered, he hadn't encountered a single person, and likewise, he hadn't encountered a single high-level immortal spiritual herb.
Not to mention high-level immortal spiritual herbs, he hadn't even seen any level five or six immortal spiritual herbs.
If it continued like this, this Yunxian Immortal Valley would truly live up to its name.
Mor Wuji increased his speed again. After another seven or eight days, Mor Wuji finally stopped. He saw a Rain Sprinkling Immortal Herb.
The Rain Sprinkling Immortal Herb was a rank six immortal spiritual herb, and the main spiritual herb for refining the Rain Sprinkling Pill. It could be said to be the most common and worthless immortal spiritual herb among the rank six immortal spiritual herbs.
Mor Wuji dug up this immortal spiritual herb and sent it into the Immortal Mortal World, without continuing to search. If the Yunxian Immortal Valley was this barren, what was the point of him coming in?
After failing to find immortal spiritual herbs for half a month, Mor Wuji gave up on continuing to run around like this. He began to set up some divine sense trigger restrictions. Every certain distance, he set up a hidden divine sense trigger restriction. As long as someone passed within several hundred miles around his trigger restriction, he could faintly sense it.
Mor Wuji's setting up these trigger restrictions wasn't aimed at everyone, but at the five cultivators who came from the Yongying Immortal Domain.
The Yunxian Immortal Valley was opened in advance by the Yongying Immortal Domain's Heavenly Emperor, Kui Fengyun. Everyone knew Kui Fengyun's main purpose, which was to find a certain top-level immortal spiritual herb in the Yunxian Immortal Valley to prove his Dao and become an Immortal Emperor.
Kui Fengyun couldn't possibly not know the situation inside the Yunxian Immortal Valley. Since Kui Fengyun knew that there weren't any high-level immortal spiritual herbs inside, wouldn't it be meaningless for him to open the Yunxian Immortal Valley in advance? This meant that Kui Fengyun definitely had a hidden move, and his hidden move was the five guys who came from the Yongying Immortal Domain.
As long as he found one of these five guys, Mor Wuji would be able to find out whether Kui Fengyun, like him, didn't know that there was a problem with the Yunxian Immortal Valley.
Even while setting up the trigger restrictions, Mor Wuji was still a little regretful in his heart. He regretted not placing some divine sense imprints when he entered the Yunxian Immortal Valley. He should have placed some divine sense imprints on the five Yongying Immortal Domain cultivators, so that he could now use his divine sense imprints to find these five guys.
In fact, there was a sign of this when they entered the Yunxian Immortal Valley. The five guys from the Yongying Immortal Domain seemed to be walking at the back. While other cultivators had already disappeared into the distance, they were still dawdling behind. It's just that at the time, everyone was eager to enter the Yunxian Immortal Valley to find immortal spiritual herbs, so how could they think about these details? Mor Wuji hadn't thought of it either.
Several more days passed, and Mor Wuji, who was still setting up restrictions, suddenly felt his divine sense trigger restriction being touched. He quickly stopped setting up the array flags and quickly escaped over there.
Mor Wuji's Wind Escape Divine Ability had reached the realm of tangible wind. As long as there was wind, he could approach the other party without a trace, or escape from the original place.
Arriving at the place where the restriction was triggered at the fastest speed, Mor Wuji was very disappointed. The guy who triggered his restriction wasn't from the Yongying Immortal Domain. Mor Wuji had seen this guy before, talking to an alchemy king from the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance for a long time. It could be seen that this guy was doing things for that alchemy king, and wasn't from the Yongying Immortal Domain.
Seeing that the guy's face was full of disbelief and disappointment, Mor Wuji knew that the other party was like him, and hadn't found any high-level immortal spiritual herbs.
Mor Wuji was too lazy to care about this guy, and continued to set up divine sense trigger restrictions after he left.
Several more days passed, and Mor Wuji had set up dozens of divine sense trigger restrictions. Along the way, he also caught three or four guys who triggered his restrictions. Unfortunately, none of them were from the Yongying Immortal Domain.
This made Mor Wuji very disappointed. He suspected that the direction in which he was setting up the trigger restrictions was wrong. The cultivators from the Yongying Immortal Domain might have already left in another direction.
At this time, it was obviously too late to set up restrictions in other directions.
Mor Wuji sighed. As expected, man proposes, Heaven disposes. He had calculated everything, except for the fact that the Yunxian Immortal Valley was empty.
Perhaps not only had he not calculated it, but those cultivators who coveted the Yunxian Immortal Valley had probably not calculated that there was nothing in the Yunxian Immortal Valley.
Just as Mor Wuji was thinking about whether to rush forward all the way and escape for another half a month to see, his trigger restriction was triggered again. And this time, the place where it was triggered was very close to him.
With a fluke mentality, Mor Wuji escaped over there. This time, when Mor Wuji saw the cultivator who triggered his restriction, he immediately became excited. This was a young female cultivator, short in stature and with dark skin. But Mor Wuji was very clear that this female cultivator was a cultivator from the Yongying Immortal Domain.
As long as he found a cultivator from the Yongying Immortal Domain, it would be easy to handle. If this female cultivator was like him, blindly bumping around and unable to find immortal spiritual herbs, then it would mean that there really weren't any immortal spiritual herbs in the Yunxian Immortal Valley, and even Kui Fengyun didn't know.
Although Mor Wuji's cultivation realm was weaker than this short female cultivator, his strength and experience were far stronger than hers. What's more, he was proficient in the Wind Escape Divine Ability, and was hiding beside this female cultivator, yet this female cultivator hadn't noticed it at all.
This female cultivator didn't stay in the same place for long. She just paused slightly, and then escaped again. Mor Wuji followed closely behind her.
After an incense stick of time, Mor Wuji saw the difference. This female cultivator was different from the other cultivators who had triggered his divine sense restrictions. This female cultivator didn't care whether there were immortal spiritual herbs around. She would occasionally take out a directional sphere, check the surrounding direction, and then change her position.
Mor Wuji didn't dare to use his divine sense to directly check that directional sphere, but he knew that there was definitely a problem with it.
Several more days passed, and this female cultivator stopped. She checked the directional sphere for a long time before repeatedly checking the spot.
Mor Wuji also hid on the side, using his divine sense to carefully check the surrounding terrain.
At first, Mor Wuji felt that this place was no different from any other place. It was just a wilderness with a slightly denser immortal spiritual energy.
It was too normal for the immortal spiritual energy to be dense. As long as one was in the Yunxian Immortal Valley, there was no place where the immortal spiritual energy wasn't dense.
Half an hour later, Mor Wuji felt something was wrong. This was definitely a hidden restriction, and it was a natural one. He had seen too many natural hidden restrictions. For example, in the Lost Continent, the hidden place where Jing Lengbei was hiding. In the Shattered World, the location of the level seven immortal spiritual herb, the Separation Immortal King Dao Fruit.
This place was obviously another top-level natural hidden restriction. This restriction was even more advanced than the place where the Separation Immortal King Dao Fruit was hidden in the Shattered World.
This short woman only knew that there was a restriction here. It should be that her array path level was really too poor. Mor Wuji had seen it for a long time, but she hadn't seen anything.
That woman checked for nearly two days, and when she still hadn't found anything, she stopped observing. Mor Wuji estimated that she was about to leave, and quickly placed a temporary divine sense imprint on her body. This kind of temporary divine sense imprint only lasted for five months. Once five months were up, this divine sense imprint would automatically dissipate.
Mor Wuji had also calculated that the Yunxian Immortal Valley would be closed in five months. At that time, everyone would be teleported out. If his divine sense imprint was still there, Kui Fengyun would definitely be able to find it in the first instance.
Kui Fengyun was a Heavenly Emperor and a local tyrant, and Mor Wuji didn't want to offend such a guy.
Sure enough, as soon as Mor Wuji's divine sense imprint was done, this short woman quickly left.
This time, Mor Wuji didn't continue to follow this woman, but began to check this hidden restriction himself. After experiencing the hidden restriction array in the Shattered World, Mor Wuji had even more experience with natural hidden restrictions.
After this woman left, Mor Wuji spent three days finding a way to get in. He refined a large pile of array flags and began to enter the array.
Not to mention that this kind of natural hidden restriction couldn't be opened by Mor Wuji alone through brute force, even if he could open it, Mor Wuji wouldn't choose to attack it head-on.
In fact, as long as you could understand this kind of natural hidden restriction, you wouldn't even need array flags to enter. The reason why Mor Wuji refined a pile of array flags wasn't to enter this hidden restriction, but to start hiding the entrance he had found again while entering the hidden restriction. Even if someone else came, they wouldn't be able to find a new entrance to enter within a few months.
After a few months, it would be too late. When entering the Yunxian Immortal Valley, Mor Wuji had suffered a loss once. This time, he had learned a lesson. He was worried that the short woman would look for her companions to come.
Mor Wuji was right. He had just disappeared from the original place when that short woman brought two people over. These two people were also cultivators from the Yongying Immortal Domain.
However, Mor Wuji didn't know. He was already shocked by the scene in front of him.
What came into view was a large patch of cyan Bodhi flowers. Cyan Bodhi flowers were level seven immortal spiritual herbs, and could be used to refine the top-level healing pill, the Cyan Bodhi Pill. One such immortal spiritual herb was worth a pile of immortal crystals, and he saw a large patch here. This was just after entering.
