Previously, Qin Feng realized that this turtle token had no spiritual qi at all. It was even worse than the lowest grade spirit stones in the divine continent. But now, he understood that there was a spirit consciousness seal on the turtle token. When Qin Feng tried to break the seal, he realized that he couldn't do it at all. From the looks of it, the spirit consciousness on the turtle token was at least left behind by a hollow god or even higher cultivator.
The grade 9 spirit turtle shell was originally a top-grade material for forging artifacts, and a powerful cultivator had even added a seal on it. Just what kind of secret was hidden inside? Qin Feng couldn't figure it out.
"Brat, raise your face!"
Just as Qin Feng put away the turtle token, a cultivator in a white robe with a starry sky embroidered on his chest pushed him. The cultivator held a portrait in his hand. He looked at the portrait and then at Qin Feng. "It's not you. Go away!"
With that, he went to check on the next person.
Qin Feng saw the portrait in the man's hand. It was his face. Although it was only 80% similar, he could still recognize it at a glance.
"What the hell are these people doing? Where are they from? Look at how crazy they are. "
Many cultivators who were checked were unhappy and grumbled.
Someone said with a suppressed voice, "Lower your voices. Those masters are disciples of Xingkun Sect. Xingkun Sect is a six-star sect in the South Flat Continent. Their Xingkun Weapon Workshops are all over the South Flat Continent …"
When the identity of Xingkun Sect was reported, the people who were complaining immediately shut up.
Qin Feng's heart was in turmoil. No matter how stupid he was, he could guess that Xingkun Sect was looking for him. The reason was most likely related to the level nine spirit turtle shell.
For a moment, Qin Feng was glad that he was careful. After leaving the Xingkun Weapon Workshop, he immediately changed to Qiao Feng's identity. He didn't expect that this narrow-mindedness would actually save his life.
However, he didn't understand. Since Xingkun Sect knew about the level nine spirit turtle shell, why did the waiter still sell it to him? After selling it, they mobilized the entire city to search for him. Wasn't this just asking for trouble?
No matter what, since he had obtained the level nine spirit turtle shell, Qin Feng didn't plan on returning it. After all, only the waiter had seen his face. Now that he had changed to Qiao Feng's identity, he believed that Xingkun Sect wouldn't be able to find him.
"Brother, are you also here to participate in the exploration of the Thirteen Palaces?" A grey-haired old man in his fifties came over.
Qin Feng was instantly on guard. He had just arrived at the South Flat Continent and didn't know anyone. It was definitely right to be on his guard.
After sizing up the little old man, Qin Fen realized that the little old man had already stepped into the Empty God Realm. Because the little old man's aura was extremely similar to Bai Xiaofeng's, the two of them probably had similar cultivation bases.
"What's the matter, Senior?"
This was the first time Qin Feng had heard of the Thirteen Palaces, but he didn't ask too much. He didn't want to reveal that he wasn't a cultivator of the South Flat Continent. He suddenly realized something. Pan Shan City Square was filled with people. These cultivators were probably here to participate in the Thirteen Palaces' expedition.
"Hehe! Little brother, there is no need to be nervous. I can see that you are alone. You should be a loose cultivator, right? "
Qin Feng nodded.
The man's eyes flashed as he continued, "You must know that it is very difficult for loose cultivators to enter the Thirteen Palaces unless they join a sect. Only then would they have a greater chance of entering the Thirteen Palaces …"
Qin Feng had no idea what the Thirteen Palaces were, but he didn't dare to ask. He felt that all the cultivators of the South Flat Continent should know about the Thirteen Palaces. If he asked, his identity would be exposed.
"What do you want to say?" Qin Feng pretended to be calm.
"Let me introduce myself first. I am the Ancient Cauldron Sect's elder, Hong Fei. You should have heard of the Ancient Cauldron Sect. It is a five-star sect in the Qingcheng region …"
Qin Feng didn't know about the Ancient Cauldron Sect. He didn't even know where the Qingcheng was. Hong Fei continued, "My sect has 50 slots to enter the Thirteen Palaces. If you want to go, I can help you fight for one."
"Why do you want to help me?" Qin Feng raised his eyebrows.
Hong Fei smiled and said, "Of course, I won't help you for free. Before I help you, you have to do me a favor. Follow me to an Ancient Martial Relic. We will split the treasures we obtain. You don't have to worry about me having any ill intentions. This is because there are seven people including you in the team. We don't know each other. If you are willing, we can set off now …"
Qin Feng's interest was piqued. He had always been interested in the Ancient Martial Relic. Back in the Northern Sand Continent, he had a fortuitous encounter in a few Ancient Martial Relic. He even found the nature-defying Creation of Heaven and Earth Skill in the relic.
However, Qin Feng was a little worried. Who knew if Hong Fei was telling the truth? After thinking for a while, he decided to follow Hong Fei. This was because he urgently needed an opportunity to break through. Only by quickly increasing his strength could he return to the Northern Sand Continent to take revenge.
They didn't speak along the way.
Hong Fei brought Qin Feng out of the Pan Shan Market Square and into a straw hut in the wilderness. There were five people sitting in the hut, cultivating. When the two of them entered the hut, the five of them opened their eyes.
"Haha! Sorry to keep everyone waiting. We have found the last explorer. We can set off now. The rules are the same as before. If we really find any treasures in the Ancient Martial Relic, we will split them evenly … "
"Does anyone have any questions?"
The few of them did not speak. It seemed like there were no questions.
From the expressions of the five people in the hut, Qin Feng was sure that they did not know each other. However, there was a couple in the hut. When the two of them cultivated, they would sit together and cultivate.
The seven of them set off. Hong Fei led the way at the front while Qin Feng purposely walked at the back. If he felt that something was wrong, he could escape immediately.
After a round of inspection, Qin Feng found out the cultivation of the six people. Among the six of them, Hong Fei had the highest cultivation. However, he was unable to determine which level of the Empty God Realm he was at. As for the other five, they were all at the True Spirit Realm. The four male cultivators were all at the peak of True Spirit Realm Nine and only the female cultivator was at True Spirit Realm Four.
Qin Feng was even more confused. He could not understand why Hong Fei would bring him, a Buddha Aura Seven Changes cultivator, into the team. Based on the overall strength of the team, he would be a burden if he were to join.
"Little brother, you are also a Loose Cultivator, right?"
On the way, a middle-aged man with a full beard took the initiative to speak to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng nodded. The man continued, "I am Black Pockmark, also a Loose Cultivator. Do you know Elder Hong Fei?"
"I don't know him. He just pulled me here from Pan Shan Market," Qin Feng said truthfully.
The man called Black Pockmark heaved a sigh of relief. He did not know Hong Fei and was pulled into the team at the last minute like Qin Feng. It seemed like he was prepared. When he found out that Qin Feng's situation was similar to his, he was slightly relieved.
"Then let's be companions. We can take care of each other," Black Pockmark said with a smile.
This person had a fat head and big ears. He looked happy and his face was full of pockmarks. As for his name 'Black Pockmark', it was probably a nickname. Qin Feng did not know his real name.
Qin Feng would not let his guard down just because this person looked friendly. However, Qin Feng did not reject him since he took the initiative to be friendly.
"I am Qiao Feng. I came here in a hurry and did not ask about Elder Hong's situation. Where are we going to the Ancient Martial Relic?"
"I came here the day before yesterday. It is said that it is around Pan Long Mountain. Elder Hong found an Ancient Martial Relic there. It should be quite big. It is dangerous to go there alone, so he found a group of cultivators to go with him," Black Pockmark said.
This was not the first time Qin Feng had been pulled into a team for an adventure. Back then, he was pulled into a team by Han Shen and the others in the Violet Cloud Valley Mystic Realm. In the end, there was a Seven Star Formation there, and Han Shen and the others had sent him to his death.
Now that he had joined the team again, Qin Feng was always on guard. He always felt that Hong Fei was a little strange. This old man was not as kind as he looked.
After talking about the team, Qin Feng intentionally or unintentionally brought the topic to Pan Shan Market. Actually, he wanted to ask about the Thirteen Palaces, but he could not ask directly.
"Senior Black, why did you come to Pan Shan Market?"
"Of course, I came to join the Thirteen Palaces' exploration team. I believe that all the cultivators who come to Pan Shan Market have the same goal. Brother Qiao is the same." Black Pockmark smiled.
Qin Feng pretended to be calm and said, "That's right. I was going to join the Thirteen Palaces' exploration team, but I didn't expect to join everyone's team."
"It's okay, Brother Qiao. The Thirteen Palaces will open in a week. This time, we will take at most three days. We will definitely make it in time."
When Qin Feng heard that Black Pockmark planned to go to the Thirteen Palaces, he was confused. He heard from Hong Fei that the exploration team that wanted to enter the Thirteen Palaces needed to join a sect first. However, Black Pockmark said that he was a Loose Cultivator. How could he go to the Thirteen Palaces?
As if he saw Qin Feng's confusion, Black Pockmark smiled and said, "Brother Qiao, we are the same. Didn't Elder Hong agree to give you a spot in the Thirteen Palaces after the exploration?"
Qin Feng nodded, but he had some doubts in his heart.
Although he did not know what kind of place the Thirteen Palaces was, he could guess from the prosperity of Pan Shan Market that it was definitely a good place. The spots to enter this kind of place were very precious. Hong Fei was just a little elder of the Ancient Tomb Sect, how could he have the authority to privately arrange this many spots?
Although Qin Feng did not ask the other team members, he could guess that Hong Fei had promised them the same thing. This time, it was six spots. Hong Fei had said that the entire Ancient Cauldron Sect only had 50 spots.
"Senior Black, do you have confidence in the Thirteen Palaces' exploration?" Qin Feng put aside his messy thoughts. He wanted to find out more information about the Thirteen Palaces.
Black Pockmark's always smiling face became serious, "Brother Qiao, I won't hide it from you. I'm at the peak of the True Spirit Realm, so I can only protect myself in the Thirteen Palaces. The Thirteen Palaces have a total of thirteen areas and the deeper you go, the more dangerous it will be, but there will also be more treasures. My goal is to enter the Third Palace, I don't dare think about going deeper …"
