Lu Sangjiu found it hard to understand their resigned attitude. She was determined to try for herself to see if it was possible.
The others clearly shared Lu Sangjiu's sentiment, so they all politely declined the male cultivator's well-intentioned advice.
The two female cultivators were a pair and naturally went to the right, while Lu Sangjiu's group of three went left.
The valley before them was, at a glance, a cylindrical shape completely enclosed by mountains.
Or rather, it felt as if this place had once been a complete mountain peak, but someone had forcibly gouged a massive hole out of its center.
In short, it was like they were trapped inside a cup.
Flying was forbidden in the Secret Realm, and a suction force from above naturally pulled people down. This meant that returning the way they came was basically impossible. Their only option was to see if the mountain walls held any hidden paths.
The valley wasn't very large, about three hundred square meters in total.
