Wu Shattered Star River

Jiang Han felt a chill run down his spine, not just because the corpses here had disappeared, but also because he remembered something else.

Throughout his journey, he hadn't found a single skeleton, nor had he come across any weapons, armor, or spatial rings.

The Valley of the Undead had existed for thousands of years, opening once every decade, with most who entered dying inside.

How many warriors had died over the millennia? Countless! Yet, he hadn't found any skeletons on the road, nor any weapons, armor, or even scraps of clothing.

Where had the skeletons gone? Where had the weapons and armor gone?

Tens of millions of warriors had died here, each with weapons and armor. Could demonic beasts and trees devour corpses, and could they also devour skeletons, weapons, and armor?

Jiang Han couldn't understand it, which was why he felt so uneasy!

This Valley of the Undead held a great secret!

Jiang Han pondered for a moment, then quietly left to continue exploring. This time, he was even more cautious, not letting any clue escape his notice.

After traveling several hundred miles, Jiang Han heard faint screams coming from ahead.

He quickly flew towards the sound, and after traveling a few miles, he discovered two black trees and several warriors who had died tragically.

Those warriors were tightly bound by the branches like dumplings, strangled to death, and were no longer breathing.

Jiang Han watched from a distance, not approaching, planning to lie in wait for a while to see if these corpses would also disappear, and more importantly, how they would disappear.

"Huh?"

After watching for a while, a look of surprise suddenly appeared in Jiang Han's eyes. He stared carefully at the faces of these people, feeling like he had seen them somewhere before.

"Snap."

A moment later, he suddenly slapped his head, remembering that these were the same people who had been trapped when he first encountered the black trees two days ago! If he hadn't rescued them, they would have died long ago.

"Why is my memory so bad?"

Jiang Han blinked in confusion, but soon his eyes widened, revealing a look of horror.

He was at the Heavenly Human Realm, his soul was incredibly powerful, and he could remember things from not just two days ago, but even two years ago.

For example, he could clearly remember the appearance of Little Clown Girl and Little Fish, even now.

He could even remember what the little boy who bet on stones with Little Fish by Wangyue Lake looked like.

He could also recall the appearances of many members of the Jiang family.

He could remember things from years ago clearly, but he felt that his memory of these people from just two days ago was somewhat blurred.

"As expected, one will lose their memory in the Valley of the Undead. Many things here will be slowly forgotten, and after leaving, everything encountered here will be completely forgotten!"

Jiang Han scanned the surrounding scenery, feeling that this place was becoming increasingly strange and eerie.

Could there be a magical law of heaven and earth here that could modify people's memories?

"Modifying memories requires affecting a warrior's soul. People have three souls and seven spirits, and memory should be controlled by one of the souls. How does the law of heaven and earth in the Valley of the Undead affect people's souls? How does it cause warriors to have incomplete memories?"

Jiang Han couldn't figure it out. He pondered for a while, then sat cross-legged on a large tree and began to visualize his soul.

"Huh?"

With just a casual visualization, Jiang Han's body and mind were shaken. He had made a major discovery—a strange pink energy was floating above his sea of consciousness.

This energy was very sparse and had entered his sea of consciousness at some unknown time.

It hadn't merged with the sea of consciousness, nor had it attacked his soul. It was just floating quietly above the sea of consciousness.

"When did this energy enter my body? Could my memory loss be caused by this pink energy?"

Jiang Han simply stopped going anywhere and sat here to quietly observe his sea of consciousness. The appearance of this pink energy was too strange, and he wouldn't be at ease until he figured it out.

He didn't understand soul attack and defense methods, so he couldn't use soul power to expel or annihilate this pink energy. He could only observe it more.

"As expected..."

After waiting for an hour, Jiang Han made a discovery. The pink energy in his sea of consciousness had increased slightly. Although it was only a little bit, it had indeed increased.

There was no movement nearby, so there was only one explanation!

This pink energy filled the entire Valley of the Undead. After warriors entered, the pink energy would quietly and silently enter the warrior's sea of consciousness.

Memory loss here was likely caused by this pink energy.

"Why doesn't the Heavenly Beast Cauldron absorb this pink energy?"

Jiang Han was somewhat disappointed. This pink energy might not be aggressive, so the Heavenly Beast Cauldron hadn't been activated.

Otherwise, if it was absorbed by the Heavenly Beast Cauldron, this pink energy would be refined.

"That's right, I can try to actively activate the Heavenly Beast Cauldron!"

Jiang Han thought of a way. He had a supernatural power called "Netherworld Ghost Fire." When the ghost fire entered his soul, the Heavenly Beast Cauldron would be activated.

If he could also absorb this pink energy at the same time, that would be perfect.

"Let's try it!"

A ball of ghost fire appeared in Jiang Han's palm. He controlled the ghost fire to enter his body and fly towards his sea of consciousness.

"Buzz~"

As Jiang Han expected, as soon as the ghost fire reached the sky above his sea of consciousness, the Heavenly Beast Cauldron automatically activated, emitting a brilliant light and quickly rotating. Then, the ghost fire was absorbed into it.

"Good!"

Jiang Han discovered that the pink energy above his sea of consciousness had disappeared in a flash, all absorbed by the Heavenly Beast Cauldron. He was immediately invigorated.

His strategy was correct. This pink energy had all been absorbed by the Heavenly Beast Cauldron. Whether this energy was harmful or not, it was always good to clear it out.

"Well, I'll clear it out every few days to see if I can retain my memories in the Valley of the Undead!"

Jiang Han made up his mind, visualized for a moment again, and then opened his eyes.

He looked forward and glanced at the corpses, a look of astonishment appearing on his face.

The corpses had disappeared, and not only the corpses, but the skeletons had also disappeared.

The weapons and armor on their bodies naturally fell to the ground. The ground was very flat, and no caves or anything like that were found.

"Could it be that this black tree can even devour warriors' bones?"

Jiang Han frowned. He had been nearby and hadn't felt any movement.

Then there was only one explanation: the corpses of these warriors, including their skeletons, had been refined by the black tree.

"Whoosh whoosh~"

A gust of wind blew from the east, and then a faint purple mist began to spread. Jiang Han, who was deep in thought, was awakened and immediately became nervous after scanning the area.

Black trees, yellow snakes, purple mist.

He had witnessed the terror of the black trees and yellow snakes, and now the purple mist, ranked last, was coming.

Just how terrifying was this purple mist? He would soon find out.

This time, Jiang Han didn't dare to be careless. He activated the armor that Lan Lin had given him at the first moment, and he released his thunder domain, covering his entire body.

He also held his breath, took out a Heavenly-Rank divine talisman with his left hand, and condensed several balls of ghost fire with his right hand, ready to attack any incoming enemies at any time.

Five breaths later, the purple mist became particularly thick, and Jiang Han's eyes suddenly turned blood red, his entire body's hostility soared, and his murderous aura soared into the sky.

At this moment, he finally understood just how terrifying the purple mist was!
