Cang Bei Chun was about to rush into the stone gate when he saw a figure in front of him, and he instinctively stepped back several steps.
"Old boy, you move pretty fast." Ding Huan smiled as he looked at Cang Bei Chun.
"You..." Cang Bei Chun looked as if he had seen a ghost, completely unable to believe his eyes.
Ding Huan scoffed coldly:
"What do you have to say? I had the kindness not to kill you and let you guide the way, but instead, you deceived me ahead and dodged me behind. Because of your incorrect information, I almost fell off a cliff."
"Friend, this is indeed an misunderstanding. I am afraid of friends will act, so I have small mind. Now Cang Bei Chun swear..."
Ding Huan interrupted Cang Bei Chun, "You don't have to swear, just say it, did you practice here?"
Cang Bei Chun was sweating coldly on his forehead, constantly thinking about why Ding Huan could appear in front of him so accurately.
He was sure that he had been extremely careful on his journey, making sure not to attract any followers.
Being so careful and cautious, how could they be blocked in front?
The guy in front of us was saying outside that he had to search for one branch cave after another, right? If it takes this long, finding this place would take at least one or two days.
Fastest, it still takes one day.
Everyone did not prepare anything when they entered, so he thought Ding Huan would have to go out again, prepare all kinds of lamps and food, and then come in again.
"This..." Cang Bei Chun hesitated.
He definitely wasn't at the peak, and he wanted to break through the innate, this was the only place.
In his heart, this place was the real relics of Daoist cultivation in Kunlun Mountains. As for going further inside, he had also been there.
The deepest part can only find a bit of primordial stone, and there's nothing else.
There is a place of concentrated vitality inside this place. Although the place is small, he always feels that there are too many secrets in this small place.
But he is too low in cultivation and experience to understand it at the moment.
If he handed this place over to someone else, how would he ever progress in the future?
"Puff!" A streak of blood shot out, and Cang Bei Chun felt a chill on his shoulder. Suddenly, he was shocked to find that his arm had been chopped off by Ding Huan.
"Friend, I said, this is indeed the place where I closed myself off."
Cang Bei Chun suddenly came to his senses, realizing that his life was in the hands of the guy in front of him. What qualifications or reasons did he have to not reveal it?
"How did you enter this cave?" Ding Huan asked indifferently.
Cang Bei Chun hurriedly said: "This stone cave is open for a few hours every day, I planned to go in and plug the cave after entering, so that friends don't know that.
I admit to being selfish, and I'm willing to...
"Puff!" A streak of blood shot out on Cang Bei Chun's neck.
Cang Bei Chun saw his back. His last thought was that his head had been chopped off.
Why? He hadn't finished speaking yet, had he?
Ding Huan stretched out his hand, and before Cang Bei Chun's body had even fallen, the pouch hanging on his waist was grabbed by Ding Huan.
With Ding Huan, a burst of flames fell on Cang Bei Chun's body. In a short time, Cang Bei Chun's body turned into a pile of ashes in the flames.
Only now, Qi Xin Yue and Lao Liu ran over eagerly.
"Big Brother..." Qi Xin Yue looked at the stone cave behind Ding Huan and the smell of burnt wood, roughly guessing something.
Ding Huan walked to where Cang Bei Chun had inserted the small flag, and he found that this groove was truly different from the others.
It seems that there are some dense patterns carved inside this groove.
This reminded Ding Huan of the divination of the spider that never dies. Is this the same thing?
He took out the small flag from Cang Bei Chun's sack. The small flag was made of an unknown material, and it had a warm, smooth feeling in his hand.
The flag was no more than twelve centimeters long. Besides the flagpole, there was a brown flag, which was about five square centimeters in size.
Without holding it, he had not noticed that both the flagpole and the flag surface of this flag were dense patterns.
With a thought, Ding Huan was shocked to find that his spiritual awareness could not penetrate it.
This is definitely not a common treasure.
In addition to these, there were some primordial stones and a few handwritten breathing methods in the bag. According to the paper, it was probably written by Cang Bei Chun himself.
"Let's go, we'll enter this place." Ding Huan grabbed the flag and went into the side cave first.
His spiritual awareness only reached half of it before being blocked by something, which made Ding Huan even more interested.
After entering the cave, Ding Huan saw another groove at the back of the cave, which was also covered with patterns.
Ding Huan inserted the small flag into the groove, and indeed, the cave slowly returned to its original position.
Ding Huan's spiritual awareness swept out, and he was shocked to find that his spiritual awareness was stopped on the stone wall and couldn't penetrate through.
Just like the spiritual awareness, it couldn't come in.
Indeed, it was like that. Ding Huan was relieved that he had timely intercepted Cang Bei Chun earlier.
If there are enough things to eat inside, Cang Bei Chun could stay in there for years without coming out, and Ding Huan would be helpless.
"Chirp, chirp..." After entering, Lao Liu started to call out randomly.
Ding Huan simply took out a small bag, put the paper and ink in it, and threw it to Lao Liu, "From now on, this is yours."
Lao Liu excitedly grabbed the small bag, pulled out the paper and pen, and wrote quickly: "This is a hidden array, and the flag in your hand is the array flag to open the door."
Indeed, it's an array formation. Ding Huan nodded, and he had guessed earlier that it might be an array formation.
Unfortunately, he knows nothing about array formations.
"Cang Bei Chun had been closed here for a long time, and it should be safe here." Ding Huan called out to Qi Xin Yue and walked towards the deep part of the cave.
After walking about thirty meters, Ding Huan saw another stone gate.
It was obvious that he could see the stone gate up close, but when his spiritual awareness scanned it, it was just a blurred mess.
There was still an indentation next to the stone gate, and Ding Huan unconsciously inserted the array flag in his hand into the indentation.
The stone gate opened smoothly without any hesitation.
The scene in front of him made Ding Huan pause for a moment. So simple?
In Ding Huan's mind, Cang Bei Chun had been closed off in there for so long that it had to be a very spacious and complex palace-like place.
But the visible area won't exceed thirty square meters.
Not in terms of size, but the arrangement inside was clear at a glance.
Four faintly misty-glowing night pearls were embedded in the four corners of the cave, a stone bed, a stone chair, and a green stone lotus cushion.
Besides that, there was a table.
Beside the stone bed, on the stone wall, there was a smooth area where some cultivation techniques were carved.
Ding Huan looked at it and found it to be mundane, just the same as the cultivation techniques he had obtained from Cang Bei Chun.
As for this, Ding Huan was not interested at all.
Aside from this, there was nothing in the rest of the place that looked like it was the site of a Taoist relic.
Ding Huan had some doubts about whether he had killed Cang Bei Chun too early. At least, he should let the other person inside to see if there were any other mechanisms inside.
The only difference is that the qi and jing in this place is very rich.
Ding Huan's spiritual awareness swept through the area, and he quickly discovered a difference; the qi and jing in this place were emanating from beneath the ground.
His spiritual awareness cannot penetrate, it seems that there are also some array formations carved beneath the ground.
"Looks like this is just a stone cave where an ordinary person hides." Qi Xin Yue couldn't help but say something.
She also didn't feel anything special about this place.
Ding Huan's spiritual awareness repeatedly searched through the cave, and he really didn't want to believe that this was the kind of far-off Taoist relic he had been expecting. It was just a plain stone cave.
Ding Huan's spiritual awareness had been searching for nearly thirty minutes when it suddenly stopped at a place near the entrance of the cave.
With the spiritual awareness, Ding Huan had long since summed up the pattern.
That's where the array formation is, and the spiritual awareness cannot penetrate.
Now his spiritual awareness scanned this stone wall, and this stone wall had nothing different from the ordinary stone wall in the cave.
But there was a spot near the entrance that his spiritual awareness could not scan through.
Ding Huan reached out and touched the spot that couldn't be scanned through, which was an irregular protrusion that was completely different from the surrounding area.
This stone wall was clearly carved by hand, and there were many such pits and uneven protrusions in this place.
Ding Huan twisted his hand, and the protruding stone piece fell into his hand.
Pinching it hard, the small stone turned smooth instantly.
It was about two square centimeters in size, looking similar to a star.
Even in his hand, Ding Huan's spiritual awareness was still unable to penetrate the star-shaped stone.
Ding Huan put the star-shaped stone into his pocket and said, "There should be nothing else inside, I really didn't expect it to be just like this plain and ordinary cave."
Lao Liu chirped and pointed to the ground with his fingers.
Ding Huan casually launched ten or more wind blades at the ground, and soon a faint white light penetrated out.
"There are three meters of qi veins here," Ding Huan exclaimed in surprise.
He had noticed the qi seeping out from the ground as soon as he entered, and he had always thought there were a lot of primordial stones buried underground.
To be honest, Ding Huan had piles of Shazhen crystal, and he had lost the previous desire for qi stones.
He had not expected to dig up qi stones, but rather qi veins.
Ding Huan had never seen a qi vein before.
However, in his thinking, something that contains the earth-energy like a qi stone and forms a whole is naturally a qi vein.
Ding Huan continued to slash with his wind blades, and soon he had pulled out this nearly ten feet long qi vein.
"Chirp, chirp..." Lao Liu was extremely excited about the qi vein, circling around it and chirping noisily.
"Let's go, there's nothing else to investigate here." Ding Huan said with some disappointment.
Indeed, his previous plan was to get some qi stones from the Taoist relic site in Kunlun Mountains.
Now, he just wants to obtain some Taoist cultivation techniques or something like Taoist supernatural powers.
He didn't expect that in the end, he didn't get any qi stones or cultivation techniques, but instead got a ten-foot-long qi vein.
