As their eyes adjusted to the light, Rocky found themselves in a brighter and more spacious environment all of a sudden. It turned out that the members of all five great clans who managed to enter the valley were transported to a huge, flat stone. When he looked down, he could see the entire Ethereal Valley.

It was nothing like he imagined it to be—it had a dense jungle with lots of birds circling around, clouds and mist were scattered in many places, and of course, it gave off a sense of transcendent mystery.

Aside from Jeffrey and the other Spiritual Emperors who were all in charge of protecting and guiding the team, only about ten members from their clan made it to the valley to train.
