Chapter 181 Bailing Valley

After walking in this mysterious ancient secret realm for two days, Song Qingming has seen all kinds of dangers in it.

In the secret realm, there are not only many strange monsters and puppets that attack people, but also some places hide formations and prohibitions that trap enemies, and there are also natural barriers like the river with poisonous fog in front of him, which block the footsteps of visitors.

The monsters and puppets encountered were good, and none of them were above level 2. Although Song Qingming's cultivation was suppressed by most of his body, he was still half a foundation-building cultivator, and it was not a big problem to deal with some level 1 monsters.

Although there were many formations and prohibitions encountered on the road, they were not particularly powerful. In front of Song Qingming, a formation master, they only needed more time to get out smoothly.

The only thing that gave Song Qingming a headache was some of the most primitive barriers that blocked the road, such as poisonous fog, miasma, wind and sand, which were the most troublesome. In addition to breaking through, there was almost no other tricky way. Every time he encountered it, he would add some new injuries to his body.

The small river in front of him, which was filled with green poisonous gas, was only a dozen feet wide. It seemed that some monster was hiding in it and spewing out poisonous gas. There were bulging bubbles everywhere on the river surface. After these bubbles exploded, they would immediately turn into a poisonous gas and float directly into the air, forming this poisonous gas that blocked Song Qingming's progress.

The many restrictions in the secret realm almost prohibited cultivators from flying. It was naturally impossible to fly over from the air. If you encountered a restriction and fell into the river, you would basically have to wait for death.

Song Qingming could only look upstream along the river to see if there was any other way to cross the river. Finally, he found a very old huge stone bridge connecting the two banks not far ahead.

This stone bridge was in the small river where the poisonous gas was spreading. It had turned half green and was covered with poisonous gas floating up from the river.

After looking at the map, if he wanted to go to that valley from his location, this stone bridge should be the only way.

"Since there is no other choice, we can only rush forward regardless of him."

Standing at the bridge head, Song Qingming took a deep breath, released the Xuanguan armor and protective qi in his body, and then took a detoxification pill in advance to be prepared.

After preparing, Song Qingming ran to the other side of the bridge quickly, trying to rely on his own speed to quickly pass through the poisonous fog on the bridge.

Just when he ran to the middle of the bridge, Song Qingming felt that some poison had penetrated into his body. Because his own mana was suppressed, the power of the Xuanguan armor on Song Qingming was also reduced a lot here, and he could not completely prevent these poisonous gases.

Fortunately, he ran fast enough and ran to the other side before the poisoning worsened. Song Qingming, who took the detoxification pill, still felt a little heavy in his head. This poisonous fog was indeed different from the common poison outside, and even the commonly used detoxification pills had limited effect on it.

Fortunately, the Xuan Guang Jia technique helped him withstand most of the poisonous fog, otherwise it would be difficult for him to reach the valley before the time specified by the Fire Phoenix.

After taking a short rest, Song Qingming set off again soon. In this last section of the road, except for encountering a few monsters, there was no other danger. He finally arrived at the Bailing Valley marked on the map before the specified time, a small golden valley with a radius of 100 meters.

As soon as he approached the valley, Song Qingming saw from a distance that a red spiritual light was shining in the valley. It seemed that Long Feng was right. The strength of the spiritual energy in this red light should be the fire scale fruit in the mouth of the Fire Phoenix.

Seeing that the thing he had been looking for with great difficulty was right in front of him, Song Qingming couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart. He finally had a glimmer of hope to survive.

The Bailing Valley is not large, and there is only one entrance to the valley. Song Qingming came to the entrance of the valley and found that there was a wind wall in this narrow passage into the valley that blocked his steps forward.

He released the giant ape puppet beast from the storage bag and manipulated it to slowly enter the wind wall. At first, it was fine. As the giant ape puppet gradually went deeper, gusts of wind began to blow violently inside. In the end, he only felt a crisp sound like the collision of swords, and suddenly he lost control of the puppet.

A moment later, with a burst of broken limbs made of spiritual wood, they flew out of the wind wall just now, which scared Song Qingming outside.

He didn't expect that the giant ape puppet beast that he had just repaired not long ago would be completely written off like this.

Song Qingming knew the defensive ability of this first-class puppet beast. To be able to break it into pieces so quickly, it must be at least above the foundation-building level.

With Song Qingming, whose cultivation had been suppressed by most of the time, he really had no confidence that he could withstand such a strong attack. Song Qingming looked around and decided to find a way to take a detour to see if he could enter the valley from another direction.

Soon, Song Qingming circled the valley and finally returned to the valley entrance with a helpless look on his face.

A very powerful psychedelic array was set up around the valley. No matter which direction Song Qingming wanted to enter the valley from, he would eventually come out from the same direction for no reason.

This psychedelic array is very cleverly designed. It will neither hurt anyone nor trap you. It is far from comparable to the arrays and restrictions he encountered before. With Song Qingming's current array level, there is no way to force it to break.

Besides, he doesn't have much time to waste on this now. There is only half an hour left for the Fire Phoenix to give him. By then, he will leave here no matter what.

"Forget about him. I have come here. I can only go all out and fight."

After making up his mind, Song Qingming gritted his teeth and raised the only defensive magic weapon on his body, the Tianluo Umbrella, and stepped directly into the wind wall.

As soon as he walked in, Song Qingming immediately felt a gust of cool wind blowing around him. The Tianluo Umbrella in his hand felt a little resistance instantly. Every time he wanted to take a step forward, it became more and more difficult. Song Qingming could only increase the mana in his body and inject it into the Tianluo Umbrella.

After walking a dozen steps, but only a short distance, Song Qingming felt that the resistance in front of the Tianluo Umbrella was so great that he could not bear it. Seeing this situation, he really couldn't move forward. He could only retreat back from the wind wall with a helpless look on his face.

"That's not right. Just now, my giant ape puppet beast was destroyed after walking a certain distance. How come it couldn't move after walking such a short distance after entering? This is obviously wrong."

After Song Qingming thought hard for a while, he suddenly slapped his head and suddenly realized that the problem was still with him.
