In a dark stone chamber, two people were conversing.
"Master Leng, this is the Spirit Lotus Seed that the sect asked me to bring. I hope that it can help you recover your soul strength to grade-6."
After parting ways with the one-eyed cultivator, Mu Tuo rushed to the cave. After all, the sect had given him an order to restore Master Leng to his peak as soon as possible!
Mu Tuo did not dare to delay.
"The Spirit Lotus Seed is a grade-7 medicinal herb. It is incomparably precious. I will not let the sect down."
Master Leng was around seventy years old. His hair was white, his eyes were bright, and his aura was steady.
Taking the storage pouch from Mu Tuo, Master Leng probed it with his soul strength. A moment later, he nodded his head in satisfaction. "Not bad, there are three Spirit Lotus Seeds. Furthermore, there are many other medicinal herbs that can recover soul strength."
"With these medicinal herbs, I should be able to recover my soul strength to grade-6 in three days."
Taking a deep breath, Master Leng's eyes glowed. "Pass down my order. Without my permission, no one is to enter this stone chamber!"
"Yes!" Mu Tuo replied and left the stone chamber.
"Master Mu Tuo, someone wants to enter the cave."
As soon as Mu Tuo left the stone chamber, a Corpse Guard walked up and said, "Do you want to …"
"Who? Who wants to enter at this time? "Mu Tuo interrupted the Corpse Guard with a frown.
"One-eyed cultivator," the Corpse Guard replied.
As Mu Tuo had said that anyone who entered the cave would have to go through his permission, the Corpse Guard did not dare to let the one-eyed cultivator in.
"One-eyed cultivator? Didn't he head to Bright King City? Why is he back so soon? "Mu Tuo frowned doubtfully.
Logically speaking, no matter how fast the one-eyed cultivator was, he should be in Bright King City at this time.
"Let's go and take a look."
Since there was nothing for him to do here, Mu Tuo decided to take a look to see what the one-eyed cultivator was up to.
Master Leng's safety had to be guaranteed. If the one-eyed cultivator dared to spoil his plans, Mu Tuo did not mind teaching him a lesson!
Shua! Shua!
The stone chamber was not too far from the entrance of the cave. A few minutes later, Mu Tuo arrived at the entrance.
"One-eyed cultivator, didn't you go to Bright King City?" When he saw the familiar figure standing outside the cave, Mu Tuo said in a low voice, "Why have you returned so quickly?"
"Grandmaster Mu Tuo, I have something urgent to report to you."
Outside the cave, the one-eyed martial artist had an anxious look on his face as he hurriedly said, "I've received definite news that someone will launch an attack on this base!"
Hearing this, Mu Tuo was startled and asked, "Who dares to attack the Corpse Sect's base?"
"Grandmaster Mu Tuo, this, this … I've only just heard about this." The one-eyed cultivator was obviously very anxious, and he even stuttered a little. "I brought your five-star token to Bright King City. Halfway there, I was lucky enough to overhear a conversation between two powerhouses. They were going to attack this base!"
With that, the one-eyed martial artist flicked his wrist and a black five-star token appeared in his hand. "According to my conjecture, their strength is at least at the middle stage of the True Martial Realm. I did not dare to be negligent and immediately returned to inform you."
"Control the Formation Core and let the one-eyed martial artist in."
Although he was somewhat doubtful, Mu Tuo still ordered the Corpse Guards to control the Formation Core and let the one-eyed martial artist enter the cave.
However, he secretly made a mark with his right hand behind his back.
As this mark was made, the void in the cave faintly trembled.
Whoosh!
The one-eyed martial artist did not know what Mu Tuo was doing. Seeing that the Formation Core was under control, his face lit up with joy and he leaped into the cave.
"Grandmaster Mu Tuo, this is your five-star token."
After entering the cave, the one-eyed martial artist immediately handed the black token to Mu Tuo.
Putting away the black token, Mu Tuo said indifferently, "Well, tell me what those two martial artists said."
"Grandmaster Mu Tuo, those two martial artists … Not good!"
However, before the one-eyed martial artist could finish speaking, his expression changed dramatically and he hurriedly retreated several steps.
Whoosh!
As the one-eyed martial artist retreated, a large number of Corpse Guards suddenly rushed out from behind Mu Tuo.
The strength of these Corpse Guards was between the early and middle stages of the True Martial Realm, and there were twenty to thirty of them.
Moreover, the Corpse Guard at the very front had strength comparable to a peak middle stage True Martial Realm martial artist!
"Did they discover me?" Ning Yue's heart trembled, and the Origin Qi in his sea of consciousness surged slightly. However, he did not immediately attack.
He believed that his disguise technique was superb, and with Mu Tuo's eyesight, he would definitely not discover him!
Mu Tuo slowly retreated to the middle of the Corpse Guards and said indifferently, "One-eyed martial artist, I'll give you a chance. Tell me what happened."
"Grandmaster Mu Tuo, I don't understand what you're saying."
Hearing Mu Tuo's words, Ning Yue calmed down. Since Mu Tuo had not discovered that the real one-eyed martial artist was dead, there was a need for him to continue acting.
With an angry expression, Ning Yue said, "Everything I said is the truth! Even if I see Grandmaster Leng, I will say the same thing! "
"Haha, you want to see Grandmaster Leng, right? I'll fulfill your wish, "Mu Tuo smiled and waved his hand. Two Corpse Guards stepped forward, one on each side of Ning Yue.
"Grandmaster Leng is currently in seclusion. You will only be able to see him when he comes out," Mu Tuo said. "As for now, I'll have to trouble you for now."
"Bring him to the last stone chamber!"
The two Corpse Guards brought Ning Yue into the depths of the cave.
Ten minutes later, Ning Yue was brought to the door of a stone chamber.
Clang!
One of the Corpse Guards opened the heavy stone door and brought Ning Yue in.
"One-eyed martial artist, wait here for now." At the door of the stone chamber, Mu Tuo hesitated for a moment before saying, "As for your innocence, I will investigate it thoroughly."
Mu Tuo instructed, "Look after the stone chamber. Without my permission, don't let a fly out!"
"It seems that I will have to make a trip to Bright Ruler City personally." Frowning slightly, Mu Tuo felt that there was something fishy about this matter. Taking a deep breath, he walked out of the cave.
Whoosh!
Inside the stone chamber, the Dark Emperor suddenly rushed out from his Spatial Ring.
"Ning Yue, why didn't you let me make a move just now? Against these small fries, I can kill them with a flick of my finger! "The Dark Emperor was clearly a little unhappy as he grumbled.
"Dark Emperor, Mu Tuo was only suspicious of me. He didn't guess that the one-eyed martial artist had already been killed by us." Ning Yue said, "Since this cave is the Corpse Sect's base, there must be some formations and powerful cultivators inside. If we act rashly, we might alert them."
"Then tell me, what should we do now?" The Dark Emperor said.
"Hehe, we are currently in the depths of the cave. Why don't you use your advantage and find out which stone chamber that Grandmaster Leng is in?"
