The vast and desolate region was located in the northwest of the North Region. It stretched for thousands of miles. The fog was heavy and dark clouds gathered. The cliffs and dangerous peaks stood tall, and the evil valley and deep streams occupied it.
In the depths of the Desolate Domain, there were two huge mountains that stood next to each other. They rose from the ground and stood in the clouds, as if they could reach the sky and the earth. On the towering mountains, there were two bright red words that were more than 1,000 feet tall...
Nothing! Life!
Lifeless Valley was the training ground for the disciples who had just entered the Inferno Hell. Very few people knew its exact location. Even if they knew, not many people would dare to enter it easily, or would be willing to enter…
Not only because the environment here was dangerous and hellish, but also because…the people who entered here were all lunatics, lunatics who looked down on their own lives and even more so on the lives of others.
In the Lifeless Valley, there were not many rules and restrictions, but there was a cruel law that existed forever.
Survival of the fittest!
Everyone who entered the Lifeless Valley had only one goal in common, and that was to walk out of this hell alive!
……
The cold wind was chilling. At the entrance of the gloomy Lifeless Valley, two figures stood quietly. One of them was wearing a red robe, while the other was wearing a black robe. Their loose robes fluttered in the cold wind, but their bodies were like a rock, unmoving. It seemed that they were waiting for someone...
Shortly after, a mournful scream came from the valley and drifted in the cold wind. It lasted for a long time before it stopped. The figure in red raised his head and looked at the entrance of the valley. After a moment of silence, he said in a hoarse voice," This is the ninety-ninth scream. I wonder who…will be able to walk out of the Lifeless Valley through blood and bones this time!"”
The black-robed man pondered for a moment and said in a low voice,"Perhaps there was no one. Just like last time, the last person who survived was also seriously injured and died inside."”
When the red-robed man heard this, he said emotionally," A hundred people will die and only one person will survive. However, these hundred people entered the Lifeless Valley voluntarily. Even if they are all buried in the valley, they can't blame others!”
The red-robed man paused for a moment. He flipped his hand and took out a long black wooden box. He said in a low voice," Unfortunately, if no one survives this time, the item in this box..."
The black-robed man's gaze also landed on the black wooden box. His eyes flickered slightly with a hint of desire as he spoke in a low voice, word for word.
"Yin Underworld Ghost Saber! The Prison Lord's Spiritual Artifact!"
The red-robed man laughed hoarsely. His fingers gently rubbed the black wooden box as he sighed,"I didn't expect the Prison Lord to use this saber as a reward for the survivors. If there's no life this time…"
"Looks like I'll have to disappoint you. The person has already come out!”The black-robed man cut him off.
When the red-robed man heard this, he looked in the direction of Lifeless Valley.
At the dark and deep entrance of the Lifeless Valley, a dense fog was surging endlessly. It opened up to both sides like a wave. A figure slowly approached from afar. His steps were extremely orderly, not one bit more or one bit less.
This person was about thirty years old. He had a tough face and sharp eyes. His long black hair was tied behind his head with a straw rope. His beard was unkempt and his eyes were bloodshot as if he hadn't had a good rest in a long time. His blood-stained robe was covered in scratches and hung on his body like rags. His bandaged hand was holding a narrow and slightly bent knife.
"What's your name?" The red-robed man asked when he saw this person approaching.
This person raised his eyes and looked at the two of them. He opened his dry mouth and said," Yagyu Ryosuke!”
The red-robed man frowned slightly." Yagyu Ryosuke? What a strange name. However, from now on, you are a member of the Infinite Purgatory. You can call me the red-robed envoy and this black-robed envoy. If nothing unexpected happens, you will be our subordinate for a long time in the future.”
"Greetings, Red-robed Envoy and Black-robed Envoy.”After hesitating for a moment, Yagyu Ryosuke bowed respectfully in a strange tone.
"Very good. Looking at your appearance, it seems like you are an armament that uses a saber? I have to say that your luck is pretty good. This is the reward given by the Lord Prison Lord to the survivors. It suits you very well."
After saying that, the red-robed man raised his hand and threw the Black Wood Blind Man in his hand at Yagyu Ryosuke!
Yagyu Ryosuke reached out and took the wooden box. He immediately felt a bone-chilling coldness in his hand. A series of faint howls and wails echoed in his ears, filled with resentment, unwillingness, anger, and ruthlessness. Countless ghosts and ghosts appeared in front of his eyes, wrapped in black smoke, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, pouncing towards him.
He bit the tip of his tongue hard. The intense pain and the bloody taste that filled his mouth made Yagyu Ryosuke come back to his senses and get rid of the terrifying illusion. However, he was like a mortal who had been tempted by the devil. His fingers trembled slightly, and he finally put them on the wooden box and opened the lid.
The long box was covered with brocade, and a knife was placed on it. The blade was black, thin, and sharp, and was covered with strange, curved runes. It emitted wisps of black gas. If one looked carefully, one would find that this black gas was formed by the condensation of twisted faces. Perhaps it was because it had seen the light of day again, but this knife began to tremble crazily as if it was roaring and shouting, as if it wanted to drink human blood to its fill.
Yagyu Ryosuke caressed the blade lovingly and asked," What's the name of this sword?”
"Yin Underworld Ghost Saber!" The black-robed man replied, his tone inexplicably complicated.
"Yin Underworld Ghost Saber? What a good name! Good name!" Yagyu Ryosuke picked up the knife in the box, and his cold face could not help but reveal a knowing smile as he praised repeatedly.
The red-robed man chuckled and said," Alright, Yagyu Ryosuke, since you've already obtained the treasured saber and spiritual weapon, follow us to the State of Jin and pay our respects to the Prison Lord."”
"Yes, Liu Sheng!"
Yagyu Ryosuke replied respectfully, but he was puzzled. Jin was one of the most powerful vassal states under the Great Yin Dynasty. Could the master of the Infinite Purgatory be related to Jin?
The red-robed man smiled, looked up at the sky, and let out a sharp and strange howl.
After a while, a loud and sonorous cry that sounded like metal clashing broke through the clouds and broke through the air. It sounded as if it was responding to the red-robed man. Then, a fierce wind tore through the clouds in the sky and rolled down to the ground. In the gap, a mighty giant roc with dark red lightning flowing all over its body flapped its wings. It was more than 200 feet tall. It flapped its wings and flew over like a primordial giant bird that had descended into the world.
The black-robed man and the red-robed man looked at each other. With a slight sway of their bodies, they appeared on the broad back of the roc. Without the need for them to call out, waves of black gas rose from under Yagyu Ryosuke's feet and wrapped around his entire body. He turned into a stream of light and flew onto the roc.
The Peng let out a cry and its wings stirred up a gale. After circling for a moment, it soared into the sky and disappeared into the clouds.
