Chapter 33: The Valley of Fallen Immortals (Part 1)

  Li Hui and the other four hundred people looked at the white-robed old man in front of them with reverence, facing Yuan You, a cultivator of the Primordial Infant stage, was like a child looking up at a towering mountain that pierced the clouds, unable to reach it, and not even having the heart to climb.

  "You people, some of whom are from the city guard of this city, and others who have come from the city guards of subordinate cities. Being able to come here means that you are all top-notch in the city guard."

  The old man in white robes said coldly. Below him, all 400 people listened quietly.

  "However, each and every one of the Divine Wind Camp is an elite among elites. Only those who have passed the assessment of the Divine Wind Camp and met the standards can become a Divine Wind Envoy."

  "In the Divine Wind Camp, we can provide you with top-notch martial arts and divine techniques that cannot be found outside, a large amount of elixirs and spiritual stones. Even when you break through to the Golden Dan period, there is an opportunity to join the Ziwei Palace and become a true core disciple."

  The old man in white robe's next words made all 400 people excited, with a fierce light flashing in their eyes.

  The Ziwu Palace has two major forces, the Tianji Guard and the Shenfeng Camp, both of which have a deep foundation. The Shenfeng Camp is even more mysterious and extraordinary. Top-level martial arts, divine secret techniques, these are all extremely attractive to every cultivator. And most importantly, there is an opportunity to join the Ziwu Palace!

  Ziwei Palace, the overlord of the entire Xia State's Cultivation Realm, rules over the 36 cities of the boundless and endless Wild Beast Marsh, which is like a backyard to Ziwei Palace. However, no one truly understands much about Ziwei Palace.

  The area where the Ziwei Palace is located in the city is a forbidden place, and no one can get close. According to legend, there are strong practitioners of the Tribulation Period sitting in the Ziwei Palace.

  Ziwei Palace rarely recruits disciples from outside, and it is said that the entire Ziwei Palace exists in a huge dúlì space, where there lives no less than the population of Ziwei City! All core disciples of Ziwei Palace come from within.

  And now these people may also join this mysterious and powerful Purple Palace, how can they not be excited?

  "But all of this requires you to join the Divine Wind Camp and become a Divine Wind Envoy." The white-robed elder looked at these fanatical people with a calm gaze, saying coldly.

  "The assessment of the Divine Wind Camp is not just strict, it can be said to be cruel! Only those who have truly undergone the baptism of blood and fire, and the test of life and death, are qualified to become a Divine Wind Envoy!" The white-robed old man said in a raised tone.

  Below, the four hundred people all became hot-blooded and excited. These people were mostly young men in their twenties. Although they were cultivators, which young man was not hot-blooded? Which young man did not dream of making a big stir?

  The old man in white robes looked at these young men full of yearning without any expression on his face, and there was not a ripple in his heart.

  "I can tell you in advance that in the upcoming assessment, it's possible that less than 40 of you 400 people will be able to stay! And many of you may even die during the assessment!"

  The four hundred people below suddenly calmed down, and forty people were taken out of the four hundred. It was possible that some people might die during the assessment! Many people's faces had already undergone some subtle changes.

  "Divine Wind agents, sometimes need to infiltrate the depths of the Savage Marsh to hunt down those ferocious fugitives, sometimes need to sneak into enemy forces alone to gather intelligence, destroy enemy strongholds. Sometimes they will be sent to some perilous places to search for treasures. So what we want are only those who can complete tasks in any situation, fearless and unyielding people. If you just think about getting into the Divine Wind Camp to get some considerable rewards, obtain some magical powers, then please leave early. The Divine Wind Camp is not suitable for these people, nor will it want them!" The white-robed elder's gaze swept across the four hundred cultivators below like a sharp knife.

  The old man in white's voice rang out coldly in everyone's ears, Li Hui only felt that the old man's gaze was like piercing through his body, all the way to the deepest part of his soul. Scenes of himself facing various dangers, being seriously injured, and even being killed by someone flashed before his mind, he couldn't help but shudder slightly, a hint of fear appearing on his face. He quickly circulated the spiritual energy within him, instantly recovering as usual.

  The corner of my eye caught the building next to me also reacting similarly in the wind, but it quickly recovered.

  "Lord Shen, I...I want to withdraw from the assessment." A cultivator in the group stammered.

  "Mr. Shen, I also think that the Kamikaze Corps is not suitable for me."

  ……

  Fifteen people have requested to withdraw from the assessment one after another.

  The old man in white robes gazed at these people with a calm and composed expression. Earlier, his voice and eyes had contained a hint of mysterious and intimidating magic, and indeed, some people's minds were not strong enough to withstand the test.

  "Does anyone else want to quit? Once the assessment begins, you will face endless danger and losing your life is not worth it." The old man in white robes said coldly.

  Many people below had slight doubts in their hearts.

  Many of these people come from large immortal families, hold extremely high status within their clan, and have superior cultivation environments. They only came out to make a name for themselves, but if they lose their lives, it's not worth it. Cultivating immortality is about longevity; if one dies prematurely, then it's not worthwhile.

  Five more people withdrew. The remaining ones, however, all had determined faces and showed no intention of retreating.

  The old man in white robes scanned the crowd with his eyes: "Very well, I will arrange for someone to send these twenty people who are leaving back later. The rest of you stay here and follow me into Meteorite Gorge early tomorrow morning."

  Eight Golden Elixir cultivators standing nearby changed their faces upon hearing the three words "Nirvana Valley", revealing a hint of astonishment. The Divine Wind Camp's annual assessment is different every year, and they also just found out that this year's assessment location is Nirvana Valley. This place, apparently, isn't somewhere good.

  "You eight will send those who are leaving away, and gather the information of the remaining people. Tomorrow, follow me to Meteorite Gorge." The white-robed old man said calmly to the eight Golden Elixir cultivators.

  "Yes sir!" The eight men bowed in unison and replied.

  The old man in white robes suddenly swung his sleeve and took a half-step forward, the space rippled and he vanished.

  The eight Jindan cultivators finally relaxed their facial expressions and stood up straight, apparently feeling somewhat oppressed by the presence of the white-robed elder.

  "You twenty people come with me." An old man in a hemp garment and a kind face walked out of the eight people.

  Those twenty people who quit at the last moment now had a hint of regret on their faces, looking around reluctantly, clearly not wanting to leave.

  Just now, a fleeting thought of giving up arose, but after a moment, these people regretted it. Having gone through hardships to arrive at this place, they were about to quit because of just a few words, which was somewhat unbearable.

  "Let's go, and don't have any regrets. What Mr. Shen said earlier was actually a test, to see if your will is firm. For people like you, being able to leave is actually a good thing. With your determination, it would be impossible for you to survive in that Astral Valley." The old man in the hemp garment said with some kindness.

  Those people also knew that regret was useless, and finally there was no longer any lingering affection in their eyes. They walked out of the team and followed the old man in a hemp robe to the transmission array in the center of the square.

  Li Hui listened to Ma Yilao's words, with a slight movement in his heart, but no wavering color in his eyes.

  A moment later, Moe returned, apparently having sent those people away from the transmission array.

  "Those who followed me, follow me. The others, follow the adults who brought you." Jiang Yue said to Li Hui and a group of people.

  The team was immediately divided into eight small teams, following their respective leaders.

  Ten people who came with Li Hui did not leave. At this time, Li Hui began to observe the headquarters of the Divine Wind Camp.

  Here is a vast square, looking into the distance, there are layers of mountains in the distance, with pavilions and buildings hidden in the mountains, which seems to be similar to the scene in the Gate of Emerald Clouds.

  But the vast expanse of this place couldn't see the edge at all, and for a moment Li Hui also doubted whether this place was really in Ziwei City.

  Jiang Yue waved his hand and released a white jade flying boat, which transformed into a giant boat ten feet long in the wind. Jiang Yue floated onto it: "Everyone come aboard, this place is still some distance from your residence."

  Ten people stepped onto the flying boat and headed towards the distant rapids.

  All the way, Li Hui looked at the scenery around him. There were mountains and rivers here, with dark valleys and straight-standing peaks, and courtyards and houses could be seen everywhere.

  Jindan Master Cao's flying boat sped extremely fast and stopped on a slope after a short while.

  On the slope there are rows of simple stone houses, and in front is a quiet courtyard.

  The flying boats of the other seven Golden Dan Masters also arrived almost simultaneously at this place.

  "Greetings, esteemed seniors!" A flash of sword light appeared in the courtyard, and a Silver Wei messenger from the Foundation Building phase stepped out, bowing to the eight individuals.

  "In a little while, you will settle these people down." Jiang Yue said to this Silver Wei.

  Then eight Golden Elixir cultivators each took the identity tokens of the people in their respective teams and counted them, which was considered as registration. This registration process was quite simple.

  "Let's go and visit those familiar guys around here too."

  After finishing this, the eight Jindan cultivators bid each other farewell and left, apparently there were also many Jindan cultivators who had a good relationship with them living here.

  Li Hui and others were then allocated by the Silver Vine to live in a stone house.
