When the black hole appeared inside the formation, the elders and their disciples who were patiently waiting inside their pavilion all flew outside of their pavilion to arrive outside the formation.
A few stronger elders arrived in front the large formation as they channelled their essence energy into the formation. The formation lit up as a golden light shined into the black hole from the formation due to which, the black hole grew in size to turn into a large spatial crack spanning for hundreds of meters.
The space around the spatial crack crumbled as one could occasionally see the scenery of another world from the crack.
"Now".
The elders all shouted as they all formed a similar hand seals as several large runes flew appeared behind them. With a wave of their hand, the runes passed through the formation and headed straight for the center of the spatial crack.
When it reached the center of the spatial crack, the runes all exploded into several smaller runes which all joined together to form a formation in the form of a small circular gate.
"Space locking art".
The elders all had pale faces after the gate was formed but their face were filled with smile.
One of the elder came forward as he said:
"The portal to enter the swordridge valley has been stabilized and is ready to use. But, before that let me say a few things to you".
"I know that your elder have already told you a few thing about the swordridge valley so I will repeat them first. The swordridge valley is a treasure land that will be opened for two months. So, once you pass through the portal you will be reported inside a random location in the swordridge valley.I suppose you already know the basics. So, I won't continue about that".
"As for the situation inside, even we cannot tell. The situation inside the swordridge valley is unfathomable and is filled with dangers. Even a slight mistake might cause you to forfeit your life. So, I advise you to take things seriously once you are inside the swordridge valley".
"The dangers inside the swordridge valley are divided into several level. There are areas in which even a martial soul realm cultivator can be easily oblirated. Of course, those dangers can be easily avoided if you carefully tread inside."
"There are countless treasures inside. So, one of the most dangerous thing inside is greed. The treasure inside are usually followed by danger. So, be careful while choosing treasures and aim for treasure after gauging your abilities. Only by living will you be able to enjoy the benefits of those treasures".
"There are countless treasure inside the swordridge valley. So, don't fight and kill each other for treasure inside. Everyone has their own luck and fate which will guide to the treasure most suitable for you. Those who kill others for treasure will be punished strictly after they leave the swordridge valley.
That is absolutely not permitted".
All the young people smiled disdainfully at the elders word. Who was this old fart trying to scare? The elder from their sect had already warned them to be on guard against others. Killing for the treasure was common in the swordridge valley. They were even instructed to rob if the treasure was tempting enough.
By saying those things now, he was just warning the smaller sect disciples. If you want to attack the disciple of major sect, attack only if you are absolutely sure to kill them or if the treasure is good otherwise, the sect will surely punish that disciple after hearing the complain from their own. This was the elder's way of kindly warning them.
"But if other people attack you first, then there is absolutely no need to show mercy. After all, we could not let our treasure be stolen,can we? "
"Fine, I will say one last thing. There are countless treasures inside the swordridge valley which you cannot recognize. Do your best to bring back those treasures. You can trade with your elders or any one of us after the elders appraise it with treasure that are suitable for you of equal value once you are outside".
The sword ridge valley opens once in a century. Sometimes some strange thing would be found inside such as old pots, broken armors, etc. Some lucky people found some heaven defying medicine after breaking those old pots after using countless method and Those broken armors were so strong that even a full power blow of a true martial realm cultivator couldnot harm it.
So, those old cultivators were crazy for such things. This craziness led to several old cultivators barging inside the swordridge valley through the portal. But all of them killed by swords descending from the sky after they reached the treasure ground.
But, that did not deter all of those crazy old fellows. Some of them were unconvinced and believed that they could pull of a miracle by entering inside the valley. They used countless method such as sealing their cultivation to core formation realm, using armors to defend against those descending swords, etc only to be killed inside. After the death of more than hundreds of such crazy cultivators, those old cultivators finally got cured of their craziness.
So, they put all of their hopes on the younger generation. They started to treat the opening of the swordridge valley more importantly as they sent their most talented disciples inside. Some of the disciples even brought back several heaven defying treasure from inside the valley.
Several small sects rose in power after their disciple found some old lost cultivation manual and martial skill inside the valley. Those small sects developed rapidly to become large power. So, several small sect pay a heaven defying cost to obtain a single entry badge putting all of their hope on the swordridge valley to rise in power.
There were all kinds of treasure inside. There several treasure weapons that had experienced countless battles inside which could instantly increase the battle prowess of the user. So, the appearance of such treasure would usually result in a bloodbath as all the people would fight crazily to obtain the treasure.
There are several unique demonic beasts inside the Swordridge valley which has already been instinct in the outside world. They continued to reproduce and live inside the valley.
However, those demonic beasts were under some kind of restriction. Those demonic beasts couldnot grow past the rank 4 stage which is equal to core formation realm. The demonic beasts are ranked in number each equlavent to a single realm of cultivation.
It is said that the body of those demonic beasts are extremely precious. Their blood, meat and specially their demonic core and Dao bone could be sold for high amount in the outside world. The demonic core of a demonic beasts is full of demonic energy so it could be used to run formation while the meat and blood of demonic beasts are used to make medicines. The dao bone of a demonic beast is their inheritance bone through which they pass down their innate technique to their offspring. Usually, a demonic beasts destroy their dao bone before their death. People pay a sky-high price to buy a single dao bone making them extremely precious.
Several unique metals and mines can be found inside the swordridge valley which could be used to form armors and weapons. Some sects formed a unique formidable legions after excavating those mine to forge a similar armors and weapons.
There were also report of several immortal medicine appearing inside the swordridge valley. It is said that one could gain eternal everlasting youth after consuming those medicine. Of course, wether those reports were true or false, no-one knew.
The elder warned everyone once more about the danger before all of the elder clapped their hands together.
"I wish you all good luck".
The elder said as all of the heaven and earth changed, as all youths with entry badge arrived in front of the portal by passing through the formation.
They were horrified to see dark abyss after looking in to the portal which would sometime change into a scenery of different world. The youth were horrified but before they could scream, they were all sucked inside the portal as the portal closed after them.
Sam found that he was in a strange dark space as he was travelling at a fast speed inside it. He finally saw light after several day as he was ejected out from the dark space.
Bang.
He lost consciousness after he crashed into a hard surface. When we regained his consciousness, he opened his eyes to find himself laying down on a mountain.
"Swordridge valley, I, Sam Desvons am finally here".
