Since Jidao and the others are now in an almost safe situation, they naturally don’t have to hide, but instead are openly traveling around the town and inquire about the information of the last person.
But the answers of the people here seem to be the same. They know that there is such a person and probably know where he is. It is said that the man died in a place called Death Valley.
But no one understands where Death Valley is. Naturally, Ji Dao and others cannot act rashly just by knowing a place name.
What kind of environments may be there and what kind of creatures are there? They must have some understanding of these things, because their strength is not enough, and it is too much forcing to explore the underworld in the Thousand Realms to do the soul power of the Thousand Realms.
Even the emperors in ancient times could not reach, they are now just exploring some information with a try-and-see attitude, and of course they are also practicing in it.
Just when Ji Dao thought they had nothing to do in a day, they suddenly heard such remarks:
"I don't know where the Valley of Death is...but I know someone might know."
So they came to the front of the house.
According to that person, the person who lived there seemed to be an old man without any relatives and had almost no interaction with outsiders.
This is already the edge of the town. When I saw that there were no houses within a radius of 100 meters, there was only this lonely low bungalow, Ji Dao's brow also frowned slightly.
“The architectural style here is obviously different from that in the town.”
Qian Xuan said in a deep voice that this place is still relatively wealthy, so most of the residents here have built two or three-story lofts, and it is really rare to have a lonely bungalow like this.
Ji Dao nodded, and then grabbed a handful of soil here.
Qian Xuan also turned her head and looked over. She saw that the land under the bungalow was actually grayish white, as if it was sprinkled with a layer of lime powder. Qian Xuan shook her head, saying that she could not see what kind of soil was famous for.
.
Within a radius of 100 meters, Jidao could not see any plant or a moving living creature, and a thought naturally arose in his mind:
"The old man here may have entered the so-called Death Valley."
As for this kind of soil and bungalows, it may be because he was infected with something and it turned out like this, otherwise Ji Dao would not have thought of any other explanation.
"Get in."
Although this place feels very strange, Jidao and the others naturally can't just stand here stupidly, they are here to inquire about the news.
But when Qianxuan saw the sunset that was about to go down the mountain, she suddenly felt a sense of retreat in her heart. It was not that she was too timid. Such a weird place was really not a good idea to come at such a night.
"It's going to be dark soon. Ji Dao, why don't we come again tomorrow."
He stopped as soon as he took a step and heard Qian Xuan's words. He looked up at the already dark sky. He thought to himself that Qian Xuan's words were actually nothing wrong.
Ji Dao nodded, and was about to leave the place again, but unexpectedly he heard a creaking sound.
A scent of wind came from Ji Dao's back, which made the monk feel a little chill. Qian Xuan's face tightened and looked behind him in the same manner as Ji Dao.
I saw that the already dilapidated wooden door had opened itself, and a faint fire light came from inside, but Ji Dao still couldn't see anything clearly.
"Two...if you have any questions, come in now."
The two of them were shocked and looked at each other, their faces becoming much more serious.
They did not expect that the person living in this house turned out to be a monk!
Judging from what they learned, there are only three cultivation families in this town, among which the Yao family is the largest, and most of them are mortals.
If they were monks, they might not have been able to get what they wanted so easily.
But even so, they had to continue moving forward now. Since the people inside had spoken, Ji Dao they had to go in.
As soon as he stepped into the threshold, Jidao felt the sudden drop in temperature, as if he had penetrated into an ice cellar. The faint fire seemed to sway in the cold wind, and the whole room was light and dark, conveying an extremely strange feeling.
Atmosphere.
The two looked to the side at the same time and saw an old man with pale skin sitting quietly on a rocking chair.
The thick hair seemed to be about to cover his entire face, but a kind of shiny light that seemed to be able to cut a person out of his turbid eyes. He seemed to be in a rag dress with some strange symbols.
Looked over.
"You two, those who can come here must be asking about Death Valley."
Ji Dao nodded, and at some point a wooden chair appeared behind them. Under the old man's instructions, the two of them sat down slowly.
"It's really strange. Are young people like you actually interested in the Underworld? Why, are you thinking about pursuing immortality just by being so old?"
The old man showed a mouthful of white teeth, and Qian Xuan felt palpitations when he looked at it. The old man in front of him felt a feeling that made her feel very uncomfortable.
Why did she always have such an idea? The old man in front of them who is talking to them now is not a living person?
She shook her head. Although she was extremely angry, Qianxuan could still sense it. The person in front of her was naturally not a ghost, he was a living person.
Ji Dao shook his head when he heard the old man's words:
"We are not pursuing immortality. We have some things that should only be found in the underworld."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
The old man's eyes shot out again, but Ji Dao just took a deep breath and said:
"Sorry, I have nothing to say about this kind of thing."
The old man seemed to have no big reaction. He just smiled and then stood up slowly.
"Since that's the case, what evidence do you have to prove that you didn't come for immortality?"
An invisible pressure came towards Ji Dao and the others, and something even more unexpected happened to Ji Dao. This old man was not only a monk, but at least a monk in the Xu Realm.
They had already felt this feeling of inability to resist in the old man in white robe.
"I don't have other means of proof, but no matter what the mystery we need to explore cannot be revealed. Whether you believe it or not. We still have a long way to go at this age, and immortality is still too far away for us.
