Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 2301: Tempest Valley

"Little Mink, what are you thinking about?"

After a while, seeing Lightning Mink staring at the auspicious clouds and flying beasts in silence, as if something was on his mind, Wu De sat up straight, looked at him, and asked.

Lightning Mink spat out the grass leaf from his mouth, sat up as well, and said calmly, "Nothing."

"We’ve been brothers for a long time; I know you the best!"

Wu De patted Lightning Mink on the shoulder, chuckled, and said, "When you’re carefree and laughing, it means nothing’s wrong; when you’re silent, it means something is definitely up! Just tell me what it is, maybe this Taoist Master can help you!"

Lightning Mink rolled his eyes, looking somewhat disdainful, then gazed into the distance, lost in thought. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

A moment later, he leisurely said, "Fang Bai... The Palace Master once said that in the Immortal Realm, there are Demon Clans, and our Mink Clan belongs to one branch of the Demon Clan. So, I want to go to the Demon Clan Domain and hope to find my kind..."

Pausing for a moment, he continued, "But Fang Bai said that within the Demon Clan Domain, various Demon Clans abound, with the rule of the strong devouring the weak played out to the extreme, much more dangerous than the Immortal Realm. Within the Demon Clan Domain, there are even powerful beings like the Demon Emperor who can destroy the heavens and the earth! My current cultivation level is just at the Immortal King Realm, and once I enter the Demon Clan Domain, I might not find the Mink Clan before losing my life."

He sighed softly, a hint of melancholy on his handsome face, and continued with a self-mocking smile, "I originally thought I was an Immortal Beast of the Immortal Realm, but later found out I belong to the Mink Clan of the Demon Realm. Although in the Immortal Realm, I have friends like you and am not lonely, I really want to find my kind... Old Taoist Wu, do you understand what I mean?"

Wu De said, "I understand! If I were in the Demon Realm, I would definitely want to return to the Immortal Realm to find my kind. Hmm, let me know when you want to go to the Demon Clan Domain, and I will accompany you through any trials!"

Lightning Mink looked at Wu De, warmth showing in his eyes, and said with a smile, "Old Taoist Wu, I remember you were always afraid of death! Are you really willing to accompany me to the Demon Realm?"

Wu De let out a "hey," protesting loudly, "Who said I’m afraid of death? I, Wu De, would do anything for a friend!"

He glanced towards Fang Bai and added, "Fang... ahem, the Palace Master is more familiar with the Demon Realm than we are. When the time comes, we’ll drag him along too; having him with us, there’s a better chance of finding the Mink Clan!"

Both Wu De and Lightning Mink now considered themselves part of the Emperor’s Palace and knew that addressing Fang Bai directly by name was inappropriate, so they referred to him as "Palace Master." However, switching to this title suddenly still felt slightly awkward for them.

"You two, what are you trying to involve me in?"

Fang Bai’s voice suddenly came over, and Wu De and Lightning Mink looked up to see him walking over with a smile, alongside Tang Wenrou.

Wu De and Lightning Mink hurriedly stood up.

"Little Mink wants to go to the Demon Realm?"

As he approached, Fang Bai looked at Lightning Mink and asked seriously.

Lightning Mink nodded and said, "Yes, I want to take a look there!"

Fang Bai thought for a moment and said, "It’s good to take a look. When I have time, I’ll accompany you to the Demon Realm for a trip!"

Although Fang Bai and Lightning Mink met in the mortal world, Fang Bai always felt that Lightning Mink was extraordinary and that ancient Demon Clan blood might flow within him. However, he was unsure if the Mink Clan of the Demon Realm would recognize his identity.

Fang Bai was concerned that if the Mink Clan rejected Lightning Mink, it might greatly impact him.

Even so, he decided to accompany Lightning Mink to the Demon Realm. If the Mink Clan wouldn’t accept Lightning Mink, then in the future, Lightning Mink would follow him as a disciple of the Emperor’s Palace.

Lightning Mink was worried that Fang Bai would not accompany him to the Demon Realm, but upon hearing this, he became greatly relieved.

Of course, he knew that Fang Bai was still looking for immortals who ascended from the lower realms and wouldn’t have time to go with him immediately. However, he wasn’t in a hurry and could take this opportunity to focus on cultivating and improving his cultivation level, giving him a better chance of self-preservation when he eventually entered the Demon Realm.

Right at this moment, above them in the high sky, teams of immortals, either stepping on Immortal Artifacts or riding Immortal Beasts, flew over in succession, heading swiftly towards the eastern horizon.

Fang Bai diffused his Divine Sense and discovered that these immortals came from many Immortal Sects and Schools in the Immortal Realm, each moving with great urgency, causing him to ponder.

"Let’s go and see what’s happening!"

Fang Bai felt that such a large number of immortals flying in the same direction must signify something major happening, so with Tang Wenrou, Wu De, and Lightning Mink, he flew up to the clouds to follow behind a group of immortals.

Flying thousands of miles eastwards, Fang Bai gradually understood.

Continuing ten thousand more miles eastward would bring them to the edge of the "Sea of Death," where a famous Cultivation Holy Land in the Immortal Realm, known as "Tempest Valley," was located.

Legend has it that millions of years ago, during the fiercest period of a great war in the Immortal Realm, a Great Emperor with the power of Heaven Opening and Earth Splitting suddenly appeared. To end the civil strife among the immortals, the Great Emperor wielded an unrivaled Divine Axe, splitting the sky to forcibly separate the immortals.

That axe created a rift of ten thousand miles in the void.

For a moment, space turbulence from within the rift formed overwhelming gales that swept out, taking the lives of a small number of immortals, yet caused the majority to completely cool down.

Subsequently, the immortals realized that the war had been instigated by ill-intentioned powerhouses, quickly ending the conflict and restoring peace to the Immortal Realm soon after.

After terminating the calamity with a single axe strike, the Great Emperor vanished without a trace.

For millions of years, the ten-thousand-mile space rift cleaved by the Great Emperor’s axe had long self-repaired and fused under the rules of heaven and earth.

However, a certain part of the rift has never perfectly healed for some reason, causing space turbulence from the Dark Void to breach the weak barriers there every thousand years, creating a whirlwind that ravages the land for ten thousand miles.

This whirlwind persists for a full ten years.

And the area at the center of the whirlwind, a valley spanning a thousand miles, has the strongest wind force and is thus named "Tempest Valley" by the immortals.

In the Immortal Realm, many immortals cultivate wind system Immortal Techniques and Secrets. Although Tempest Valley is perilous, the Wind Immortal Qi there is exceptionally rich. Therefore, whenever the whirlwind of Tempest Valley forms, many wind system immortals come seeking opportunity.

Some wind system immortals, in pursuit of breakthroughs and advancement, train around Tempest Valley for extended periods, with some staying as long as ten years.

Fang Bai saw those flying immortals heading towards the area around the Sea of Death and Tempest Valley and speculated that the ten-year optimal cultivation period, which only occurs once every thousand years, had arrived.

Fang Bai had trained in Tempest Valley multiple times in his past life benefiting immensely. Given the current opportunity, he wouldn’t miss this chance as he passed by.
