Chapter 1317: Chapter 499: Valley of Demons_3

The cage shook violently, the people of Sunset Country gasped in horror, and everyone gathered around the only remaining rope.

The black liquid quickly flowed towards the second rope, and the cage slammed onto the ground. The cage’s door swiftly opened, and a man from Sunset Country jumped out, smashing down with a pitch-black wooden stick in his hand. This high-level divine artifact unleashed a fiery explosion attack, which accurately landed on the black liquid.

Boom! The black liquid was evaporated.

"Damned thing!" The Red Barbarians cursed angrily, then turned around and pulled their companions out. Everyone collapsed on the ground, gasping for air: "Every time we come here, it’s a narrow escape from death."

"But as long as we can bring the Demon Sacrifice Beast back, it’s a fortune."

"If it wasn’t for the Pope’s personal order, I would rather not make this money..."

When everyone had enough rest, the leader stood up first: "Alright, let’s pack up and set off." They dragged the huge cage up first, as they would need this divine artifact on their way back.

The leader checked the talisman stone in his pocket. Once the talisman stone is crushed, they can return to the Divine Temple. This is their only way back. If the hook had failed to latch onto the ground just now, they would have no choice but to crush the talisman stone and return early.

However, doing so would mean that this hunt would end in a total loss, and the Holy See would certainly send an even more dangerous mission, until they made up for this loss.

"Everyone, be cautious. This place is extremely dangerous. Anywhere, any object, could become a deadly threat."

This cliff, in the Holy See of the King of Time and Space Conquest, had a special name: the Valley of Death. The way to the Valley of Death was established very early on. Following the oracle of the King of Time and Space Conquest, the Holy See made hundreds of attempts and used countless believers’ lives to explore the way.

Now this traffic method has become very mature, but it still requires some luck.

After packing up, they left the cage behind and set off—the place was safe, as no one else would come. The cage was a divine artifact bestowed by the King of Time and Space Conquest, which could protect them from suffering fatal injuries from the turbulent flow of time and space when they traveled here.

There were fifty members in the team, and they cautiously proceeded, gradually disappearing into the dark mountains.

The team members complained: "After so many years, hasn’t the Holy See found any way to let us see through the hidden dangers in this place?"

"It’s not that they haven’t researched, but they haven’t produced results. It’s said that there’s a special power in this world, like a soul, which can penetrate all objects. As long as they’re willing, they can transform everything here, but once they hide, they can completely merge with this world and become undetectable..."

"I’ve heard that various dangers and anomalies here can hunt individually or together. If there’s an overly strong prey that enters, it’s possible to trigger their combined attack, forming a Black Catastrophe! The Holy See tried it before. When entering this land, it’s best not to exceed the Sixth Mountain, and it’s good to have a combination of the Fifth and Sixth Mountains. If the Seventh Mountain comes in, once the Catastrophe forms, no one can get back."

A few hours after they left, a vortex suddenly emerged from the wall-like dense fog. The vortex spun at high speed, then a person burst out of it with a whoosh.

Mr. Sun fell from the sky, his body soaked in sweat, and his energy almost entirely consumed. He relied solely on the spiritual pills for support. When he landed, he was somewhat embarrassed, hitting his head on the ground. His face came into contact with the ground, leaving a deep mark on the dark earth that stretched for twenty meters!

Mr. Sun grunted and turned over, not wanting to move for a while.

His handsome face wasn’t injured, as the physical strength of the Seventh Level was even stronger than refined steel.

However, under Mr. Sun, the ground suddenly turned into a huge ghostly claw, which was about to tighten. A burst of Spirit Fire emerged from Mr. Sun’s sleeve, and with a whoosh, it burned the ghostly claw to ashes.

Only after swallowing a few more spiritual pills did Mr. Sun manage to turn over and sit up. He looked around and saw that the scene was indeed the same as what he had seen in the Overlord Map."It seems we still need to trek through this dangerous mountainous area."

Suddenly, Owen Bertram saw a cage in the distance, as well as an empty area around the cage. He went over to inspect the cage: "A high-ranking Divine Artifact; it’s probably about Seven Mountains level. But it’s not for fighting."

"It seems...someone was here not long ago?"

Owen Bertram looked at the empty area and sighed with relief, "If I had fallen directly into it when I came out earlier..." But then he thought: "There should be no danger, my brother will take me out."

As for the cage, Owen Bertram did not look closely. He guessed that it belonged to the high-level believers of the Holy See who had captured the Demon Sacrifice Beasts and brought them back, all of them locked inside.

"Those fellows do have ambition. This cage is huge, enough to hold seventy or eighty people - they can’t possibly bring back so many Demon Sacrifice Beasts." Then Owen Bertram casually threw the cage to Gourd Elder.

Swoosh—

Gourd Elder swallowed it. It felt like its stomach was a grocery store, and soon, it might be able to do stand-up comedy.

Suddenly, Owen Bertram had a perception and turned around to search abruptly, only to find the previous silence behind him. But he knew that the Seventh Level would never have any illusions; he had clearly felt a lurking thing behind him just now.

Owen Bertram expanded his Divine Sense and covered dozens of miles. Then, he opened up his Domain, within a few hundred miles radius, no changes could escape his senses.

Still, there was only silence. There were some areas with more particular energy responses, but as the Domain spread, these responses hid, blending with their surroundings, making even a Sixth Great Realm’s "Domain" unable to find abnormalities.

However, after opening up his Domain, Owen Bertram made an unexpected discovery: there were traces on the ground that the cage’s owner had recently left. Owen Bertram thought for a moment, quietly followed them, and maintained his Domain.

He followed the traces of those people for dozens of miles, and everything within his Domain still seemed peaceful. Owen Bertram was puzzled: according to what he had seen on the Overlord Map last time, in this World, all objects might transform into something bizarre, and there were many of them. Such a quiet state was not reasonable.

Outside of Owen Bertram’s Domain, in a large radius, on the ground, among the plants, and in the rocks, black eyes occasionally opened! If someone were looking from high above, they would feel their hair standing on end, as hundreds of thousands of eyes appeared and disappeared around Owen Bertram’s Domain. Each eye had a cruel, bloodthirsty light flashing within!

These eyes grew increasingly restless. Suddenly, a wisp of black gas was released from one of them, causing a chain reaction. Many more eyes released black gas, linking together as if communicating in a peculiar way. More eyes appeared in the distance, and soon, the number of eyes on the vast black land exceeded one million!

The Sunset Country’s team was on the move, and the leader suddenly felt puzzled: "Haven’t you guys noticed that the number of bizarre encounters we’ve had recently has decreased?"

The team members shrugged their shoulders: "Isn’t that a good thing?"

Feeling uneasy, the leader shook his head but said nothing.

...

Owen Bertram raised his hand, and Jason Gourd rose into the sky. The spiritual light of the "Thousand Doors Eye" swept across the land, and suddenly, a force like a Strange Snake twisted violently under its gaze, swiftly drilling to the side and disappearing!

The spiritual light of the Thousand Doors Eye immediately followed, but the trace was lost.

A tightness gripped Owen Bertram’s heart as he couldn’t help but ask, "Is there a way to transform the gaze of the Thousand Doors Eye into a range?"

Jason Gourd, being the "reserved and reticent" one among the seven siblings, hesitated before replying: "Perhaps Master could use the Second Mini-world created by myself?"
