Based on the sect's intelligence and the various signs of coming to Ba Mountain City, the Li Family was indeed in cahoots with the Tyrant Saber Sect.
However, the reason why the Li Family frequently entered Ba Mountain was not clear.
The Tyrant Saber Sect had spies from the Myriad Forms Sect, so news of the collusion could be easily obtained.
However, entering and leaving Ba Mountain was not something that the spies in the Tyrant Saber Sect could provide.
After all, Ba Mountain City was a small city under the jurisdiction of the Myriad Forms Sect. How could the Myriad Forms Sect disciples infiltrate the family of a small city?
There was no need to use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken!
The spies of the Ye Family and the Bai Family in the Li Family had all been uncovered by the Li Family. Their fates were self-evident.
However, before Lin Qian entered Ba Mountain, he already knew why the Li Family was entering Ba Mountain.
A remnant!
According to the ancient records, the Soul Martial Continent that Lin Qian resided in had undergone a huge change. The ground had collapsed, causing many ancient sects and factions to be wiped out and sink into the ground.
Precisely because of this, there were many remnants of ancient sects in the Soul Martial Continent.
The discovery of any relic, even if it was the smallest one, would still be worth a lot of money.
In the letter that Lin Qian's parents left behind, his father had mentioned that there was a remnant in Ba Mountain.
After discovering this remnant, Lin Qian's father had not told anyone. He had been bored, so he had broken all the formations and mechanisms left in the remnant.
However, Lin Qian's father had not taken a single thing away. Instead, he had used the bloodline seal to seal the remnant.
According to Lin Qian's father's original words, the reason for sealing the remnant was: "Father is not interested in these things. Qian 'er, if you have nothing to do, you can open the seal. You can play with the things inside. "
Thinking back to his father's words, Lin Qian's mouth twitched involuntarily.
Any remnant, no matter how small, would cause nearby Soul Martial Artists to crazily flock to the remnant.
Furthermore, the ruins of ancient sects were filled with formations and traps. When exploring, one had to possess a certain level of strength and be careful.
Exploring a remnant required a large number of Soul Martial Artists and a group of factions working together.
In the end, after his father discovered a relic, he single-handedly cracked all the arrays and mechanisms. As far as Lin Qian could remember, his father had never been injured.
In other words, when his father was bored, not only did he solve the ruins alone, he was also unharmed.
His father didn't take any of the treasures that would make Spirit Martial Artists go crazy, but he left them for him to play with?
Lin Qian channeled his soul power and ran deeper into Ba Mountain. "I fear that my parents have a strong background. They are unreasonably strong," Lin Qian thought to himself as he ran deeper into Ba Mountain.
Even though he had unleashed his soul power, the aura emanating from his body was still very weak.
The reason for this was because of a talisman that was stuck inside his plain white robe.
This talisman was the Aura-Concealing Talisman that Ye Lin had used earlier!
Lin Qian understood. The relic in Ba Mountain was sealed by his father, and then discovered by the Li Family. Such a treasured land would definitely be guarded. With the Aura Concealment Talisman to conceal his aura, he would be able to get twice the results with half the effort.
Therefore, this Aura Concealment Talisman was unceremoniously confiscated from Ye Lin's hands by Lin Qian.
Based on his father's description in the letter, Lin Qian continuously approached the relic.
Spirit beasts could also use the spirit energy of the world and refine it into soul power. There were many in Ba Mountain.
But the closer Lin Qian got to the depths of Ba Mountain, the fewer spirit beasts he encountered. With the Aura Concealment Talisman, there were no problems.
Presumably, the Li Family had cleared out many spirit beasts on the road to the relic for ease of entry and exit.
As the traces of spirit beasts decreased, Lin Qian's speed also slowed. He knew that he was close to the relic, and he might encounter the Li Family. If he was too fast, he might not be able to react if he encountered them.
"Hm?" Lin Qian, who had been advancing, suddenly stopped. He slowly hid his body behind a thick tree trunk, and squatted in the grass that was half a person tall.
Soul power gathered in his eyes. Using the amplification of soul power, Lin Qian's eyesight greatly increased. His gaze passed through the gaps in the grass, and he easily saw the situation a hundred zhang away.
He saw that far ahead, at the entrance of a valley, there were two large spirit warriors guarding the valley entrance.
This place was an extremely remote place in Ba Mountain, and few people came here.
Such a place was still guarded by spirit warriors. The valley was definitely a very important place. Apart from the relic, there was no other possibility.
And the place his father had pointed to in the letter was this valley.
There were two hills beside the valley entrance, and on them grew many towering ancient trees, covering the valley entrance.
If it was an ordinary person, they would probably go around the hills and enter this valley.
But Lin Qian clearly saw that on the hills at the valley entrance, the bark of some of the trees was damaged by external forces.
"It looks like there are hidden sentries watching the ancient trees on this hill." Lin Qian thought silently in his heart. Seeing the cracked bark on the tree trunk, he could tell that it was caused by the Spirit Martial Artist borrowing strength to climb up the tree.
If he foolishly wanted to go around the hills, he would probably have been discovered by the sentries long ago.
In the entire valley, there was only one entrance in front of him. There was clearly no way to pass through without making a sound.
But the message left by Lin Qian's father in the letter indicated that there was more than one entrance to enter this valley.
More accurately speaking, the entrance that Lin Qian's father mentioned was not here at all.
He would discover that the entrance to this valley was completely found by Lin Qian following the direction where there were fewer traces of spirit beasts.
After slowly retreating, Lin Qian made a detour to the side of the valley.
The side of the valley was a completely vertical cliff. With Lin Qian's cultivation, it was not difficult for him to climb over the cliff. Of course, the Li family would also think of this. There would probably be people watching the surroundings of the valley.
However, a strange smile appeared on Lin Qian's face. He went straight to the bottom of the cliff and stood in front of a huge boulder.
The boulder was more than ten meters tall and six meters wide. It was comparable to a small house.
"Hu!" As he stood in front of the boulder, Lin Qian let out a breath. His soul power condensed on his hands. His eyes narrowed, and he suddenly stabbed the boulder in front of him.
Pu!
The hard boulder was like tofu in front of Lin Qian. His hands, which were wrapped in soul power, stabbed into the boulder with ease.
At this moment, Lin Qian's entire forearm was submerged in the boulder, all the way to his elbow.
Following this, the soul power in Lin Qian's body surged. He suddenly exerted force in his arms, and the boulder that was the size of a house was actually uprooted from the ground by him.
However, after lifting the boulder, Lin Qian's face didn't turn red, and he didn't even pant. It was as if nothing had happened. He lifted the boulder and turned around.
After Lin Qian lifted the boulder and turned around, a deep hole suddenly appeared behind him where the boulder had originally been.
Lin Qian tilted his head and saw that the hole was two meters tall and one meter wide. With the help of the sunlight, he could see that the hole was circular and the walls were smooth. It was obviously man-made.
Then, Lin Qian carried the boulder and retreated into the cave step by step until the boulder hit the cliff. Only then did he gently put the boulder down, blocking the entrance of the cave and locking himself inside.
Lin Qian pulled his hands out of the boulder and patted the dust off his arms. Then, he turned around and walked into the depths of the cave.
Soul power surrounded Lin Qian's body. A pure white soul light illuminated the entire cave.
"This cave is obviously man-made. Moreover, it was created in one go." As Lin Qian walked into the depths of the cave, he looked around. A scene appeared in his mind.
A tyrannical Soul Martial Artist. His spear was like a dragon. His Soul Power condensed into a spiral spear that directly pierced through the side of the mountain.
Lin Qian remembered that his father seemed to be playing with a soft wooden spear in the courtyard. It was just that it disappeared later.
As he thought about this, Lin Qian's eyes suddenly narrowed. He looked at the ground not far in front of him. There was a broken wooden stick.
The wooden stick was only as long as a forearm. The front half had already been completely cracked.
Lin Qian swallowed his saliva. He looked at the end of the stick and saw the word 'Modest' carved on it.
"Indeed … it's the soft wooden spear that father played with." Seeing this word, Lin Qian immediately confirmed that this wooden stick was the end of his father's soft wooden spear.
This was because he had carved this word himself when he was young. At that time, he had only done it for fun.
Right now, Lin Qian could confirm that this cave that pierced through the side of the mountain valley was most likely done by his father. Furthermore, he had used such a wooden spear!
"Dad, just how fierce are you?" Lin Qian shook his head as he threw the wooden stick on the ground. He continued walking forward.
Right now, he really wanted to know how strong his father really was.
Back then, before the strange Martial Soul appeared in his body, he had not cultivated. At that time, Lin Qian did not feel that his parents were very strong.
As he recalled the past, Lin Qian felt that his parents in this life were even more unfathomable.
As his thoughts ran through his mind, Lin Qian's expression suddenly froze. This was because there was actually light in front of the cave that his father had created with his spear!
According to his father's letter, there was a cave on the side of the mountain valley. Both sides were blocked by huge rocks. How could there be light in front of them?
"Could it be that someone from the Li Family discovered this cave?" Lin Qian thought cautiously. He concentrated his Soul Power in his eyes and stared ahead.
However, what he saw was an empty mountain valley. There was no one guarding the cave entrance.
Furthermore, Lin Qian did not feel any Soul Power undulations at the cave entrance. It was obvious that there were no Soul Martial Artists.
Adhering to the idea of being careful, Lin Qian withdrew his Soul Power into his body. He maintained a state where he could erupt at any time. He poured as much Soul Power as he could into the Aura Concealment Talisman and slowly walked out of the cave.
After exiting the cave, Lin Qian's eyes suddenly opened up. He saw the rippling lake in the valley, as well as the waterfall that crashed into the lake on the left side of the mountain.
"Could it be that I'm thinking too much?" Lin Qian frowned and muttered to himself.
At this moment, Lin Qian's pupils shrank. The hair on his body stood on end. He rolled towards the exit of the cave to hide.
