"The Younger Brother Liu is the disciple appointed by the sect leader. Since he hasn't come back yet, we will wait here for a few more days. By the way, we can make a good plan for the rest of the time. "Kim Tin-thi said so.
"En, the other disciples also have a few injuries that have not recovered. They can also take the opportunity to rest for a while. To be honest, the danger in the ruins is far beyond our expectation. I don't know how many people can go back alive in the end. "Qiu Longzi said with a wry smile.
"Since they chose to enter the ruins, they should naturally have this awareness a long time ago. Moreover, the Sect let these Crystallization Period disciples enter here to have more manpower to search for treasures. As for fighting with other forces, it naturally depends on you and me. "Kim Tin-thi replied with a cold gaze.
"That's true. Among the other disciples, only the Younger Brother Liu can really help." Qiu Longzi nodded helplessly when he heard this.
So next, the people of Taiqing Gate rested quietly in this valley stone forest for a few days, but Liu Ming never appeared.
In the stone forest secret room, Qiu Longzi paced back and forth a few times with a dignified face. He suddenly stopped and turned to Kim Tin-thi not far away and said,
"Senior Fellow Apprentice Jin, it has been a long time since you encountered the beastkin cultivator, but there is still no news of Younger Brother Liu. What do you think?"
"Although I don't want to admit it, Younger Brother Liu is likely to be involved in something, or he is involved in other things. It's not impossible that he has died." Kim Tin-thi frowned and said slowly after thinking about it.
"No matter what the situation is, we have been delayed here for too long. We can't wait any longer." Qiu Longzi said calmly.
"En, then let's split up according to the original plan. Remember to leave our sect's mark along the way. I hope that Younger Brother Liu can follow us. "Kim Tin-thi sighed.
After the time it took to finish a meal, just like before, the two of them led a group of disciples and flew out of the valley.
"Junior Brother Qiu, be careful," Kim Tin-thi said to Qiu Longzi.
"Take care, Brother Jin. We'll meet at the blue lake on the map in one month!" Young Dragon took out the map and pointed at a large lake.
"Alright!" Kim Tin-thi nodded.
Qiu Longzi put away the map and cupped his hands at Kim Tin-thi. Then, he left with Long Yanfei and the Ouyang sisters.
"Then let's go too." Kim Tin-thi turned around and said as he watched Jiu Longzi and the others leave.
Kim Tin-thi only brought five people with him, but they were all disciples of Luo Tiancheng, Wen Ai and other strong disciples.
Although the people of Taiqing Gate encountered many obstacles along the way, compared to Demon Mystic Sect and Nature Work Sect, the number of disciples that died was very few. The route they explored along the way was roughly maintained according to the established plan and was not disrupted.
"Senior Brother Jin, wait a minute." Luo Tiancheng suddenly said.
Kim Tin-thi was startled. He turned around and asked,
"What's the matter?"
"It's like this. Previously, when I was being chased by the Demon Race, I accidentally killed a foreign race cultivator and obtained a map of the ruins from him. It's not far from the area we're going to explore next. I wonder if I can take it and explore it?" Luo Tiancheng said and took out a jade slip from his bosom. He handed it to Jin Tianci and said with some anticipation.
Kim Tin-thi raised his eyebrows and took it. He put it on his forehead and penetrated his Divine Sense into it.
There was a map in the Jade Slips with a location marked on it.
"Hmm, it's about 30 to 40 thousand miles southeast ahead. It's not far indeed. Since that's the case, let's go and have a look. "Kim Tin-thi handed the Jade Slips back to Luo Tiancheng and nodded.
When the others heard that there was a relic to explore, they all looked happy. Only Wen Ai looked a little gloomy for some reason.
"Let's go." Jin Tianci waved his hand and turned into a white starlight, speeding away. Seeing this, the others hurriedly urged the escape light and followed.
After Jin Tianci and the others left, no one noticed that outside the valley, in a meandering stream, a blurry blue shadow suddenly appeared. It was almost exactly the same as the stream, and if one didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to distinguish it.
The shadow slowly condensed into a solid body. It was a strange looking alien.
This person did not wear many clothes. He was tall, more than 20 feet tall, and most of his body was covered with some blue crystal scales, even on his face. His eyes were also blue. He looked in the direction where Jin Tianci and the others had gone, and his face showed a trace of hesitation.
"Relic …" The blue alien muttered to himself. Then, a layer of pale blue light appeared on his body. He flashed and disappeared.
Kim Tin-thi and the others followed the instructions on the map. They hurried all the way. Finally, after seven or eight days, they arrived at the area marked on the map. It was an incomparably huge swamp.
As far as the eye could see, there were clusters of short reeds, and the water surface was dotted all over the place. The biggest ones were tens of miles wide, while the smallest ones were only a few meters wide. The thin mist above the swamp made it impossible for people to see the true appearance of the swamp clearly.
"It should be around here," Luo Tiancheng held the Jade Slips map in his hand. He looked around and said.
However, the surrounding environment was almost the same. There were few ups and downs in the terrain. It was difficult to determine where the map marked. Even if they used their Divine Sense to search, it wouldn't be of much use in such a huge swamp.
"Junior Brother Luo, there is an area seven or eight hundred miles away in that direction. There is an abnormal fluctuation of Spiritual Qi." Kim Tin-thi closed his eyes and said while facing a direction.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Jin." Luo Tiancheng looked in the direction pointed by Kim Tin-thi. After a while, a trace of joy appeared on his face. He hurriedly flew away.
Kim Tin-thi and the others followed. After flying for about an hour, the view in front of them widened. A small basin with a radius of dozens of miles appeared in front of them.
What was strange was that although the terrain was very low and it was surrounded by swamps, not a single drop of water could be seen.
There were many strange rocks in the basin. There was a towering stone hall in the center. It seemed to be made of ordinary stones. However, everyone could clearly see a faint blue light flowing on the walls of the stone hall.
"It's here!" Luo Tiancheng saw this and his face showed a happy expression.
"There are no monster beasts hiding around. It is safe. Let's go in together. However, this ruin was found by Junior Brother Luo with the map. No matter what treasures you find, you must give him half of them. "Kim Tin-thi said lightly.
"Of course."
"Senior Brother Jin, don't worry."
The others didn't have any objections. Such a distribution was reasonable.
Everyone flew and landed in front of the stone hall. Through the tall door, they looked inside. It was a dark space.
"Everyone be careful. There is a restriction on the walls of the stone hall. You can't use your Divine Sense to explore inside." Kim Tin-thi said.
When the others heard this, their faces changed. Since they couldn't use their Divine Sense to explore, they could only rely on their eyesight. Their ability to sense the enemy was greatly reduced.
"Let's go!" Everyone looked at each other for a while. Luo Tiancheng took the lead and walked into the stone hall. The others slowly followed.
There was only one passage inside the stone hall. It seemed to lead to the underground. Not long after, the surroundings became dark. A thick and moist smell of mud hit their faces.
Luo Tiancheng walked in front. With a wave of his hand, a moonlight stone the size of an egg appeared in his hand. As soon as it appeared, the soft white light immediately illuminated the surroundings.
Kim Tin-thi frowned. Although the moonlight stone illuminated the front, if there were demonic beasts hiding in the passage, everyone would be an obvious target.
However, they couldn't use their Divine Sense to explore. The only thing they could rely on was their eyesight. Illumination was a must. He didn't say anything. He just focused on watching the surroundings.
The ground under their feet was muddy. Everyone walked forward slowly. However, the passage was very narrow. After walking for a quarter of an hour and going through a few turns, they still couldn't see the end.
However, Luo Tiancheng and the others weren't angry. Instead, they were happy. The more hidden this place was, the more precious the treasures hidden here would be.
After walking for another ten feet, a corner appeared in front of them. There was a faint white light, and the air was emitting a thick medicinal fragrance.
"The exit should be in front. Be careful." Kim Tin-thi moved and stood in front of Luo Tiancheng.
Luo Tiancheng understood. He kept the moonlight stone in his hand. Everyone lightened their footsteps and slowly explored the passage.
When everyone quietly poked their heads out from the corner, the scene in front of them immediately made them extremely surprised.
In front of them was the end of the passage. It was an underground cave with a large area. There were many white stalactites in the surroundings. The spiritual energy was so thick that it almost condensed into a mist.
In the middle of the cave, there was a medicinal mat. It could be vaguely seen that there were many different colored spiritual herbs. With a glance, they could tell that they were not low in cultivation.
"It's a natural medicinal garden. No wonder the spiritual energy here is so thick." A Taiqing Gate disciple whispered in surprise.
Although everyone was excited, no one walked over rashly.
Any place with heavenly treasures would be guarded by demonic beasts. Everyone still remembered this common sense. Moreover, they couldn't use their Divine Sense here. Naturally, they were more careful.
However, after a careful exploration, there didn't seem to be anything strange in front of them. There weren't any demonic beasts guarding this place. Only then did they relax and looked at the medicinal garden in front of them.
Luo Tiancheng took a few steps to a corner of the cave. There were more than ten green spiritual herbs that looked like they were carved out of jasper.
"This is Jasper Grass. From the looks of it, it has at least ten thousand years of medicinal properties." Kim Tin-thi's voice was heard.
When Luo Tiancheng heard this, a trace of excitement appeared on his face. No matter what kind of spiritual herb it was, as long as its medicinal properties exceeded ten thousand years, it would have a certain value to Celestial Phenomenon Realm and Profound Enlightenment Realm cultivators.
