"'The Valley of No Return'? What place is that?" Wei Tianchong asked from his seat in the Meditation Garden, the little fox in his embrace.

Surprisingly, Tang Jie and Shi Meng didn't mock Wei Tianchong for his ignorance.

Tang Jie firmly said, "The Valley of No Return is a mission area for students."

"So it's just a mission area. Why are all of you so uptight about it?" Wei Tianchong chuckled.

He was at Spirit Lake now, so he now had the ability to take part in missions. Since the Valley of No Return was a mission area, it appeared to him that the second mission was meant to assess the abilities of students through missions.

"The Valley of No Return is different," Tang Jie said. "It's a sealed mission area."

"'Sealed'? Why is it sealed?" Wei Tianchong didn't get it.

Shi Meng sighed. "Young Master, you should really study more."

"Ah, it's fine," Tang Jie casually said. "The young master has a limited amount of energy, so he should focus all of it on cultivation. If there's anything he doesn't understand, we can just help him out. As for why it's sealed, it has to do with the spiritual energy cycle."

The so-called "spiritual energy cycle" referred to how, when a cultivator died and became Returned Remnants, their spiritual energy returned to the earth.

The spiritual energy cycle was precisely how the Rosecloud Domain's spiritual energy was able to persist for tens of thousands of years, producing generation after generation of heroes.

But if one looked back on the past, they would discover that the earliest period was still very different from the present.

In Remote Antiquity, the land was untamed, civilization had not yet begun to thrive, and the various races battled against each other.

The humans of that time were all capable of cultivating. This was because spiritual energy was abundant. While spell arts were few and far between, there were no obstacles on the path of cultivation.

It was said that humans of that era didn't even have such a thing as the Jade Gate sealing the heavens.
