In the North of the Spirit Treasure Sect's territory, there was a barren plain. It was so dry that not even a blade of grass could grow. The ground had many cracks.
The plains were dotted with countless caves of various sizes that led to the depths of the earth like stars in the sky.
The cold wind blew in the void. The cold air could seep into people's bones, even the Sea of Consciousness and the soul. It gave people a strange feeling.
Caves of different sizes were like the giant mouths of demonic beasts. They were dark and gloomy, and no one could see the mysteries of those caves. They were full of dangers.
It was unknown how those caves were formed. They had existed since the day this plain was excavated. They had existed for tens of thousands of years.
This place was strange. It didn't rain all year round. Even if people stayed here for dozens of years, they wouldn't see a single drop of rain.
Rumors said that this land was a burial mound, where the corpses of the experts from the Antiquity Era were buried. Those caves led deep underground, which was full of mysterious dangers, leading directly to the Shady Firmament Old Mound.
Late at night.
Dots of starlight twinkled like fireflies in the sky from time to time. On the cold, desolate plain, the cold wind was blowing.
A dazzling light shot over from a far distance, then halted on the plain.
One by one, figures descended from the flying chariot and stopped at the entrance of a huge cave.
"Each of the caves in this area leads to the underground. Some of them are full of dangers. If you're careless, you'll be buried here forever." Ye Xiong took a deep breath, explaining with a solemn face. "If you can't determine the direction, you will probably touch the ancient barrier. Then, your body and soul will perish."
"Be careful. We don't know how many Juvenile Youngsters are in the Shady Firmament Old Mound. According to the legends, this area has been here since the Antiquity Time." Zhu Yi's face was solemn, talking to Lin Zhi, Luo Xiao, and Luo Meng next to him. "Don't wander around recklessly. Follow us closely. Once you can't see us, stay where you are. Don't move. Use the Sound Stone to send me a message."
Lin Zhi, Luo Xiao, and Luo Meng nodded. They were a little frightened.
Each warrior in the Divine Great Land had heard about the evil Shady Firmament Old Mound. This plain had buried so many hotshots. If they were careless, they would be trapped in those perilous forbidden lands. Usually, they wouldn't be lucky enough to survive.
Yue Ying and Yun Xiu were also asking Li Mu Yu and Bai Hui Quan to be careful.
ShiYan frowned, feeling the cold wind seeping into his body, and his heart slightly shivered.
The cold wind was everywhere. It was unknown how it was formed, but it had a strong penetrative ability. It could directly blow into the marrow, and even the Profound Qi would stagnate.
Shi Yan secretly circulated his power, using a little bit of the Earth Flame's heat. A warm current swept through his body. His face was shaken. That cold feeling had been greatly reduced.
"This is the entrance?" Yue Tan's almond-shaped eyes brightened, looking at the cave under her feet as she asked softly.
Gusts of chilly wind blew at the cave entrance. It was pitch-black, and the sound of wind whistling reverberated like the mournful cries of demons and ghosts. It was extremely shocking.
"Not bad." While Ye Xiong was talking, he took out a dark purple orb and flicked it.
The ball of light slowly fell, constantly changing shades of dark purple at the entrance of the cave. The deeper the ball of light fell, the darker the purple color that flowed out. In the end, the dark purple ball of light became a bright purple color.
"The cold wind is too heavy. Let's slow down. We'll get in after a while." Ye Xiong was familiar with the movements inside. He retrieved the light ball and explained in a low voice, "The cold wind is too cold. It will trigger the ancient barrier inside. Only when the cold air inside disperses will the ancient barrier not be triggered. We should wait."
In this group, Zhu Yi, Yue Ying, and Yun Xiu seemed to understand the situation of the Shady Firmament Old Mound. They nodded, agreeing with Ye Xiong's plan.
It was the first time for Shi Yan and the other juniors to come to the Shady Firmament Old Mound. They knew nothing about the anomalies of this place. Thus, they didn't have the right to speak. They just followed Ye Xiong's decision.
"We don't need to be tense." Zhu Yi saw the heavy atmosphere, so he smiled and said gently. "As long as we don't get in the cave, we won't encounter any danger. Even if the cold wind is fierce outside, there's no barrier. We won't encounter any fatal danger. Ye-ge has come here once. He has explored this place. As long as we go with him, before we meet the Heaven Thunder Beast, we won't encounter any danger. "
Listening to him, people relaxed a little bit.
Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh!
A strange light flashed in Ye Xiong's eyes. He shouted, "Someone's here!"
Shi Yan became cautious immediately.
Zhu Yi's hands, which were hidden in his sleeves, slowly stretched out. His fingers were adorned with many gemstones and rings. Each ring sparkled with a dazzling light in the dark night. They seemed to be some secret treasures.
He was indeed rich and overbearing!
Shi Yan sighed inwardly.
The Elders of the Spirit Treasure Sect were all filthy rich. While they were managing their cities, they had collected a lot of secret treasures. When the hotshots of the Spirit Treasure Sect fought with others, they could use only their secret treasures to crush the warriors to death. They couldn't even catch their breath. Even if they were defeated, the Elders of the Spirit Treasure Sect wouldn't have to use all of their powers.
Abundant secret treasures had a significant effect on increasing the warrior's competence. The more secret treasures they had, the more powerful they could be in a battle.
Sometimes, a battle could become a competition to burn money. Who had more secret treasures, or who had more spiritual herbs?
People of the Spirit Treasure Sect could be said to be the best in this aspect. They were good at this kind of battle.
The whistling sound of the wind stopped.
Zhu Yi closed his eyes. A flow of Soul Consciousness quietly diffused from his body, heading towards the direction of the whistling sound.
Shi Yan knew he was watching them, so he waited patiently.
Indeed, after five seconds, Zhu Yi opened his eyes, his face surprised. "Why are they here …?"
"Who?" Yue Ying asked immediately.
"Lei Mo of the Thunder Emperor City and Ai Po of the White Emperor City," Zhu Yi frowned.
Shi Yan arched his brows. His face slightly changed as his thoughts moved.
Lei Mo was the City Master of the Thunder Emperor City of the Fighting League. Ai Po was Ai Ya's father, the City Master of the White Emperor City. These two had the Third Sky of Spirit Realm cultivation base. They were always combative, the kind of characters that were hard to deal with.
It wasn't strange that the City Masters of the Thunder Emperor City and the White Emperor City appeared in the Shady Firmament Old Mound. What was strange was why they chose this moment?
He couldn't help but look at Ye Xiong.
Ye Xiong was hiding something from them. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gathered so many experts in the Shady Firmament Old Mound just for a Heaven Thunder Beast.
According to Ye Xiong, the hotshots of the Martial Spirit Palace and the Heaven Temple also came here for the Heaven Thunder Beast. They would have a chance to meet them.
At this moment, the experts of the Martial Spirit Palace and the Heaven Temple hadn't arrived yet, but the two City Masters of the Fighting League had arrived one step ahead of them. There must be some secret.
Yue Ying and Yun Xiu frowned, looking at Ye Zhun unhappily, waiting for his explanation.
"I invited you here to deal with the Heaven Thunder Beast. You don't need to get involved in other things," Ye Xiong lowered his brows, answering them neither fast nor slow. Apparently, he didn't want to talk more.
As he said so, people were begrudging. As things had come to this, they could only brace themselves and follow him.
Shi Yan suddenly remembered Ai Ya. He was guessing whether this woman would come here or not. When they were in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, this woman had tricked him. If he weren't smart enough, he would have been killed by Ai Ya.
In the first exotic land, Ai Ya had taken the lead and stormed up to the intersecting galaxies in the sky. Shi Yan didn't know what she had experienced there, but when he got there, Ai Ya had disappeared.
He always felt that Ai Ya had some harvest there. When he had come to the Divine Great Land, he had heard from Cai Yi that Ai Ya had returned to the White Emperor City a long time ago. Not long after that, she had broken through her realm. Her progress was fast.
Ai Ya was the pearl in Ai Po's palm. He loved her a lot. If Ai Po came to the Shady Firmament Old Mound today, it was possible that Ai Ya would come too.
Thinking about that, Shi Yan released his Soul Consciousness to observe.
However, as soon as he was about to move, he felt a soul fluctuation glide over their heads.
Shi Yan released his Soul Consciousness. However, under the influence of the soul fluctuation, he shivered. When he tried to trace it again, he found that he couldn't find it. The area where the wind whistled had come from had no life energy fluctuation of the soul.
The other must have used some secret technique to conceal his soul aura, which was to prevent them from observing.
"They found us, too," Zhu Yi squinted and snorted. Zhu Yi squinted and snorted. "Sneaky, you even hid your soul aura. You think I can't?"
As he said that, a green ring on Zhu Yi's hands flashed.
Rings of cyan light, like an overturned bowl, instantly enveloped everyone.
It was a soul concealing secret treasure.
Inside the blue light, waves of blue light prevented the Soul Sense from penetrating it. They even concealed their life auras, not revealing any information at all.
Ye Xiong started to sense the change of the cave in front of him. The light ball floated for a while, but the dark purple light didn't change much.
Ye Xiong's eyes brightened. He laughed, "Alright, we can go down now."
Then, Ye Xiong was the first one to fly into the cave. He reminded the others, "Guys, slow down. Don't hurry. Don't leave too far from each other."
"Let's go." Zhu Yi nodded to Luo Xiao and Luo Meng. He swung his hand, and a soft energy covered Luo Xiao, Luo Meng, and Lin Zhi, sinking together with him.
Then, Yue Ying, Yun Xiu, and the others followed.
Shi Yan was the last one, being cautious.
…
Thousands of miles away, Lei Mo, Ai Po, and the other six people frowned, looking down at the cave.
Ai Ya, the girl Shi Yan was thinking about, was also there. Next to her was a sturdy young man with a big back and a big waist. His smile was bright and cheerful. He seemed to have a close relationship with Ai Ya.
Ai Ya beamed a faint smile, talking with that young man. Perhaps she had forgotten Shi Yan she had met in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, and she didn't expect that they would meet an old friend in the Shady Firmament Old Mound, thousands of miles away from them.
"Almost there." Lei Mo laughed evilly, looking at the cave underneath. He pitched his voice. "Let's go. Ye Xiong's team has the same goal as us. We shouldn't let them get here first."
The extremely handsome Ai Po nodded and agreed with him. "Yeah, we should hurry up."
This group of people sank into the cave in front of them.
