According to what he knew, the word "Saint" had never appeared on the continent in the past ten thousand years, and there had never been such a strange rain.
However, he appeared as soon as he came out of the forbidden land, and was even floating in the air above him. It was so eye-catching, as if he was congratulating him for coming out of seclusion.
Previously, he had always thought that he was very ordinary, very ordinary, and what he had learned was only ordinary skills. However, at this moment, he realized that the lingering spirits were not simple at all. There was a high chance that they had been Saints when they were alive … Could they really be related to him?
"No matter what, I mustn't tell anyone about it …" Zhang Xuan muttered grimly.
The Great Demon took the opportunity to escape, and the Alliance suffered a suicidal attack. The Winding River appeared in advance, and the passage expanded, allowing Eternal Realm experts to enter …
Everything was related to the appearance of the word "Saint".
If he really was the one who lured it out, wouldn't that mean that the Lingyuan Great Demon was looking for him?
Was the riot also related to it?
Although his cultivation had reached the second stage of the Eternal Realm, in the face of an unknown number of Giant Demons … there was no way he could contend against them.
Moreover, what would humans do if the other party used all their strength to threaten them?
He didn't dare to think about it, nor did he want to think about it.
Humans could not test their human nature. No matter what the result was, they would be completely disappointed.
"Grandpa, can you break this seal? I, I want to go back … to take a look! "
While he was deep in thought, The Great Demon's voice sounded.
"Break it?"
Su Yin came back to his senses and looked at the seal before him again. The weave was very exquisite, surpassing most of the fishing nets that he had learned. However, to him, it was still too easy to break and find the loopholes.
He didn't make a move right away. Instead, he turned to look at the child-like Demon King before him, and with a grim expression, he said, "Let's go in and take a look. Do you have any other motives? I want to hear the truth!"
"This …" Zhang Xuan's face paled as he turned to look at the excited parrot beside him. Gritting his teeth, he said, "After I opened a hole in the seal, I took advantage of the opportunity to obtain quite a few treasures. Back then, I was in too much of a hurry to escape, so I didn't take them with me …"
He had been sealed for eight thousand years, and cracks had already begun to appear four thousand years ago. It was a pity that he was only able to extend his arm out, but his main body was unable to escape. However, he had not been idling around for the past few years. Whenever a hurricane appeared, he would scoop up treasures. Over the years, he had accumulated quite a bit of wealth.
"Are you in too much of a hurry to bring it out, or are you afraid to bring it out because you haven't recovered your strength yet?" Fei Ting interjected.
"…"
The Great Demon of Bliss was speechless.
Given his level of cultivation, he was able to forge his own storage ring. Even if he didn't have the required materials to forge one, he could still easily create a portable storage ring. With such a storage ring, it wouldn't be a problem no matter how many things he carried away.
The reason why he didn't take it was just as the other party had said. Back then, his cultivation had been severely depleted, and if he were to carry so many treasures with him, it would be easy for him to be surrounded and killed.
At that time, he would not be able to escape!
Rather than that, he might as well escape first. As for the treasures, he could completely recover before coming back to take them.
This seal could prevent him from escaping for eight thousand years. It was almost impossible for others to steal it.
"Let's go in and take a look!"
Su Yin also came to a realization. Without saying anything, he walked up to the seal and tapped it lightly.
Huala!
The incomparably sturdy seal shattered into powder in the blink of an eye, revealing the empty space within.
"…" The Great Demon of Bliss' mouth twitched.
To think that such a powerful seal couldn't even withstand a single finger from his grandfather … How fearsome!
It's fortunate that I didn't dare to make a move the previous time. If I had done so, I would have died a long time ago …
After leaving the flying ship, the crowd quickly entered the sealed space.
The sealed space wasn't too big. After some space expansion, it was only around a hundred square meters. All kinds of treasures were piled up in the corner of the room, and they gleamed with a dazzling brilliance.
"Silvergold Wood, Immortal Sea Stone, Golden Jade, Soulsevering Grass …"
Fei Ting's eyes widened as his body trembled uncontrollably.
None of the treasures piled up in the corner of the room could be taken out by the alliance. Even he couldn't help but feel envious.
Compared to the treasures that Tan Jin had taken out previously, it was like comparing a white crane to a chicken.
"Every time I try to retrieve them, I have to pay a hefty price. Most of the treasures that I'm able to capture are of interest to me …" The Great Demon of Bliss said.
He was once an expert who stood at the very top of the Master Teacher Continent. Anything that he was interested in had to be of use to an Eternal realm expert at the very least. Fei Ting was only at Heritage 7-dan back then, so it wasn't too surprising that he had never seen such treasures before.
"Since you have so many treasures with you, you should have recovered your cultivation by now. Why were you so weak when you left the sealed space?" Su Yin asked doubtfully.
"These treasures might be valuable, but they can't be used directly …"
"What do you mean?" Su Yin was perplexed.
"Most of the treasures obtained from the Spirit Abyss and the perilous lands can't be consumed directly. You have to bring them back to the Master Teacher Continent and place them in a spirit vein for a few days … Otherwise, your body won't be able to take it!" Fei Ting interjected.
"Oh?" Su Yin blinked in confusion. These treasures looked perfectly normal, so how could his body not be able to take it?
"Let me perform an experiment on my grandfather, and you'll understand soon enough …" Seeing that Zhang Xuan didn't believe him, Bliss took out a medicinal herb, squeezed out its juice, and dripped it on his arm.
Hu!
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Xuan's arm was already swollen red, as if it would explode at any moment.
Su Yin frowned. He took the medicinal herb and squeezed out some of its juice as well before placing it on his arm. He didn't feel any corrosion at all. Instead, it felt cool and refreshing, similar to the Cooling Ointment.
"Perhaps … Grandfather's cultivation is too high, so the corrosive properties of these treasures aren't effective on him …" Fei Ting and The Great Demon Bliss were perplexed as well. They racked their brains for a long time, but they were unable to come up with a better explanation.
"Many experts have studied this phenomenon before, and they speculated that it might have something to do with the Great Demon Tribe!"
Fei Ting said. "Even though I don't know where the Spirit Abyss and these treasures come from, it's likely that they exist in another world, harnessing the laws and powers of that world. Only by placing them on the Master Teacher Continent or in a spirit vein would they be able to cleanse them clean, thus making it easier for us to absorb them …"
"I see!" Su Yin nodded.
This was the most likely conjecture.
However, he just couldn't understand why Zhang Xuan was completely fine. Could it be that … his physical body had really reached an unfathomable level, just like the old tortoise and Donkey?
After a moment of contemplation, Zhang Xuan said, "Bliss, why don't you … use your full strength to hit me once more?"
"…" The Great Demon Bliss's lips twitched. He was on the verge of tears. It took him a long while before his face finally reddened. "I'm willing to give these treasures to you, grandfather. I beg of you to let me off …"
After saying those words, he swiftly placed the treasures into a storage ring and passed it over to Zhang Xuan.
"…"
Su Yin blinked his eyes in shock.
Is that what I meant?
I really want you to beat me up … Forget it, these treasures might be useful to me. Since the other party was willing to give them to me, I shouldn't reject them.
With such thoughts in mind, Su Yin nodded. "It's indeed useless for you to keep them. Once your cultivation reaches a certain level, you'll surely think of ways to harm others. Xiao Wu, help me keep them for the time being …"
Bliss said awkwardly.
I'm already a pet of a pet, how am I supposed to harm others?
However, it was fine as long as his grandfather was happy. Otherwise, he would be beaten up again.
"Alright!"
Xiao Wu's eyes lit up in excitement upon hearing that Zhang Xuan was going to give him the treasures. With a light wave of his hand, the storage ring disappeared. It was hard to tell where it was hidden, as if it had never appeared in the first place.
"You don't have to feel that you've taken advantage of me. As long as I don't do anything wrong, I won't cause you any trouble!"
Su Yin consoled Bliss. He knew that it was impossible for Bliss to beat him up.
"You must be joking. Isn't it only right for a grandson to be filial to his grandfather?"
Bliss quickly waved his hands.
He was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
He had collected a lot of valuable treasures over the past four thousand years, but they paled in comparison to the benefits he had gained from following his grandfather!
Even if he could consume those treasures, he would only be able to recover his cultivation to Pseudo Immortal realm pinnacle. On the other hand, after following his grandfather for just three days, not only had he recovered from his injuries, his cultivation had also recovered, and his energy had become even purer. It could be said that he was much stronger than when he was at his peak eight thousand years ago!
(Su Yin had been away for a total of seven days. The Great Demon had been acting in bed for the past three days, so it wasn't considered following him. Thus, it had only been three days since he had acknowledged his grandfather!)
It could be said that … there was meat to be had by following his grandfather!
"The demonic aura I sensed came from that direction …"
There was nothing left for Bliss to linger around here, so he piloted the flying ship forward.
Spirit Treasure Valley wasn't just a single passageway. The deeper one went, the more forks there would be. Without anyone to lead the way, it would be as if one had stepped into a maze, and there was no way out at all.
"The whirlwind in Spirit Treasure Valley appears around the same time as the river. It will only last for two hours. Once it disappears, the space within the valley will be sealed, preventing anyone from entering or leaving …"
Seeing that they were going deeper and deeper, Qiu Zhaojun said worriedly.
Some people would wonder why they didn't enter the valley when there was no whirlwind. Instead, they waited for the wind to come. This was the reason.
Although the whirlwind was hard to resist, it could tear open the shackles of space, allowing the valley to be unobstructed. Once the wind disappeared, the space would automatically recover, and it would be difficult to enter or exit.
It was like throwing a big stone into the water. Following the stone, the water would be cut open, and there would be an area with air. Once the stone fell to the ground, the air would disperse, and it would be impossible to breathe again.
Su Yin asked, "How often does the whirlwind appear normally?"
Qiu Zhaojun said, "The time isn't regular. Sometimes it's once a year, sometimes it's once half a year, and sometimes it's twice a day. But it's rare, usually it's once every one or two years …"
Su Yin's mouth twitched.
It seemed that they had to find the source of the demonic aura within two hours. Otherwise, if they were really trapped here for a year, wouldn't they suffocate to death?
Su Yin turned to The Great Demon and asked, "How far are we from the source of the demonic aura?"
"It's not too far away …" Seeing Zhang Xuan's anxiety, the Great Demon God hastened their pace. Not too long later, he pointed forward and said, "It's right in front of us!"
Su Yin looked over and saw that the flying ship had already arrived at a deep valley surrounded by steep cliffs. Whirlwinds were raging here, forming a massive whirlpool. At the center of the whirlpool was a circular stone platform with a diameter of six to seven meters. There were innumerable unique inscriptions carved on its surface.
"It's the formation inscriptions of the Demon Tribe …" Fei Ting recognized the formation inscriptions, and a grim look appeared on his face. "Be careful. There could be demon experts hiding here!"
"Un," Su Yin nodded. Then, he turned to Qiu Zhaojun and asked, "Did Liu Changxing come here back then?"
Ten years ago, Liu Changxing was only at Divinity 9-dan. Putting aside Tan Jin and the others, he couldn't even match up to the wandering cultivators in the periphery of the Celestial Ocean. Yet, he had managed to obtain a Celestial artifact!
This was enough to show that he was a fortuitous encounter.
In a dangerous place like the Celestial Ocean, the stronger one was, the more powerful the treasures one could obtain. This was also the reason why countless low-level cultivators were attracted to this place.
"Back then, I didn't follow him in, so … I don't know if he has been here before. However, I heard him mention that the terrain here seems to be similar to this place!"
Qiu Zhaojun said slowly as he recalled the details of his encounter with Liu Changxing.
"Let's go down and take a look! Everyone, be careful. Try not to make any noise … "
Su Yin didn't say anything else. He put away the flying ship and carefully walked into the valley.
Seeing how careful he was, the others followed behind him.
This valley was like a massive cavern. It hung on the side of the Spirit Treasure Valley, and it covered an area of more than ten mu. Before entering, one could already feel the ferocious spiritual energy within.
"This place is already similar to the center of the Celestial Ocean …"
Su Yin nodded as he carefully walked forward.
The strength and density of the spiritual energy here were no less than the center of the Celestial Ocean. It seemed like there was a special seal around this place. Otherwise, it would be impossible to retain the spiritual energy and make it stronger.
Zhang Xuan quickly scanned the surroundings, and a frown soon formed on his forehead.
The fact that he was able to clear the Forbidden Mountain showed that his comprehension of seals had reached an extremely high level. However … the valley before him was calm and peaceful. There wasn't the slightest anomaly, and there wasn't the slightest mark on it either.
This meant that … there was no seal!
But if there wasn't such a seal, how could the spiritual energy here be so dense?
"This is weird!" Su Yin frowned. Instead of rushing forward, he grabbed the spiritual energy in the air.
Sensing his strength, the spiritual energy in the surroundings swiftly gathered toward his palm. He was using the method of farming to gather the spirit veins!
Weng!
The spiritual energy began gathering at a faster and faster speed. Affected by the spiritual energy, the vortex from before began shaking intensely, as if it would collapse at any moment.
"This is … Spirit Gathering?"
Fei Ting and Qiu Zhaojun glanced at one another, and their lips twitched. This was especially so for the former.
He knew that the young man before him was a formidable spirit gatherer. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to make over a thousand spirit veins chase after him … But seeing the spiritual energy gathering with his own eyes still left him speechless.
The most formidable spirit gatherer he had ever seen was the head of the Spirit Gathering Hall, Liang Zaixing. He had to beg and plead with the others to gather the spiritual energy around him. Yet, with just a raise of his hand, the spiritual energy in the surroundings rushed toward him excitedly, as if seeing their ancestor. It was as if they were afraid that they would be chased away if they were too late …
Wasn't this a little too huge?
Boom!
While they were still in shock, the vortex at the center of the valley suddenly went out of control and charged straight toward the young man!
