Chapter 112 Soul Valley
The Snow Shadow Tiger increased its speed and flew towards the front.
Half an hour later, they had crossed the desert.
The Valley of Broken Souls finally came into Gu Yan's view. It was a forgotten world, like an eternal scar left by the ancient battle between gods and demons.
The massive, gaping canyons on the earth are a shocking sight, with sheer cliffs rising thousands of feet on either side, their bizarre shapes revealing traces of massive weapons slashing or terrifying forces burning.
The space here is extremely unstable, with countless spatial rifts meandering through it. Some of these rifts are visible to the naked eye, while others seem invisible. Upon entering the Valley of Broken Souls, one can immediately sense an intense killing intent and fighting spirit, remnants of powerful beings from ancient times—truly astonishing! Millions of years have passed, yet this killing intent and fighting spirit have not completely dissipated.
"Awoo, awoo~"
The Snow Shadow Tiger roared, terrified of the Soul-Severing Valley.
Gu Yan sighed and patted its head: "Useless, so timid." Although he said that, he still doted on the little guy, so he put it into his spirit beast ring. Golden spiritual light surged from Gu Yan's body, and he slowly flew forward.
After flying for about half an hour, Gu Yan arrived at a place where the ground was covered with all sorts of indescribable, enormous skeletons and broken armor, half-buried in the dark red, almost black soil. Some bones were covered in cracks, while others were as black as iron.
The fragments of armor are engraved with long-lost runes, which emit a faint glow before fading away.
The soil looked like dark blood pools soaked through countless years; stepping on it gave one a chilling feeling, and faintly emitted the smell of rust and ash.
Gu Yan saw nothing but weeds here. So he used his Qi Observation Technique, and two small, mysterious golden totems appeared deep within his light brown, glassy eyes, changing the color of everything around him.
In this world shrouded in darkness, he saw a striking purple beam of light in the distance.
There's treasure!
Gu Yan immediately flew towards the pillar of light. After flying hundreds of miles, she saw a sword radiating purple light half-embedded in the ground, surrounded by piles of bones. Gu Yan casually pulled out the sword; it was a weapon of the highest rank, a spiritual artifact.
As for Gu Yan, he had a lot of magical treasures, but since he had come across them all, he couldn't just throw them away. He could keep them to give away or exchange for spirit stones.
After acquiring the sword, Gu Yan continued using her Qi Observation Technique and spotted a large patch of red light in the distance. The red light flickered in and out of sight, indicating the presence of treasure, but the surrounding space was extremely unstable and could collapse at any moment. Gu Yan hesitated for a moment, then took out a copper coin to divine the outcome. Finding the danger minimal, she flew towards the location.
He obtained many good things here, but his purpose in coming here was not to find any spiritual weapons, nor did he want anything else. What he wanted was the Nine-Leaf Pure Heart Lotus. Where is it? Where is it?
Gu Yan flew further away.

Ten days later.
In the pitch-black canyon, countless vengeful spirits surrounded a man in white. The number of these vengeful spirits was terrifying, and each of them was no less than the Heavenly Spirit Realm.
Faced with these terrifying numbers of vengeful spirits, the white-robed man waved his hand, and a banner appeared behind him. The banner was embroidered with golden runes, and blood-red light surrounded it. Countless pained faces appeared and disappeared on the banner.
As soon as the soul banner appeared, the vengeful spirits showed fear and scattered to escape.
"Don't even think about escaping!"
With a wave of his hand, the man in white cast a spell on the Myriad Souls Banner. The banner emitted a blinding crimson light, and the vengeful spirits that were trying to escape were drawn in by a terrifying attraction, and then all of them were pulled into the Myriad Souls Banner.
All the vengeful spirits vanished in an instant. After collecting them, Gu Yan sat down, formed hand seals, and directly refined all the newly collected vengeful spirits.
These vengeful spirits have been wandering here for a long time, and many of their memories are fragmented. From their remaining memories, Gu Yan learned about many things that happened here before, as well as some secrets of the Miro Continent.
After refining these vengeful spirits, Gu Yan put away the Myriad Soul Banner, and several copper coins appeared in his hand. Gu Yan used these coins to perform a divination. The divination instructed him to go forward. Forward? Was there a Nine-Leaf Pure Heart Lotus ahead? The divination was not clear, so he could only go and see what happened.
Then, a burst of light emanated from his body, and he shot forward.

Two days later.
In the valley, atop a massive rock, a blue lotus blooms. The lotus has emerald-colored leaves, each with nine petals. The lotus also has nine sepals, and its petals are white with a hint of blue. The flower radiates a soft, bluish-white light, making it exceptionally beautiful, and it releases a refreshing fragrance.
Gu Yan was delighted to see the Nine-Leaf Pure Heart Lotus when she arrived here.
He glanced at the ground, where a demonic beast lay fallen, showing signs of a battle. After a moment's thought, he flew to the rock and plucked the Nine-Leaf Pure Heart Lotus.
"How dare you, you brat!!"
A roar resounded, echoing throughout the heavens and earth. Then, a streak of golden light tore through the thick fog in the distance and arrived right in front of them.
This was a middle-aged man dressed in a golden robe. He was tall and strong, with golden hair and eyes, dark skin, and a full beard. His expression was as ferocious as that of a savage ancient beast. He exuded the aura of a late-stage peak Spirit Emperor, and his golden eyes glowed, giving him a ferocious look as if he wanted to tear Gu Yan to pieces.
The man in the golden robe was actually Old Ghost Jin, who had bid against Dugu Xun at the market. However, at that time, Gu Yan and Old Ghost Jin were in their own private rooms and had never met. Gu Yan was also using a transformation spell. Therefore, neither of them recognized the other.
"This Nine-Leaf Pure Heart Lotus belongs to me. Put it down and get out of here!" Old Ghost Jin commanded. The other party was a mid-stage Spirit Emperor. Although he was very angry, he would not mind letting the other party go if he knew what was good for him. After all, it was quite difficult to kill a mid-stage Spirit Emperor.
"Yours? Isn't this Nine-Leaf Pure Heart Lotus ownerless?" Gu Yan asked.
Gu Yan had already disguised her voice, but when she spoke, it still affected Jin Laogui. Jin Laogui thought to himself, "This person's voice can affect my mind, could she be from the Myriad Desires Sect?"
"Did that level seven demonic beast under your feet kill itself? If I hadn't lured away another level seven demonic beast, how could you have found an opening?" Old Ghost Jin roared.
Gu Yan smiled and said earnestly, "Then thank you very much, thank you, thank you!" After saying that, she put the Nine-Leaf Pure Heart Lotus into her storage ring.
