"So the Du Family is here. If it weren't for the master and disciple leading the way, it would have taken a lot of effort to find this place by myself. "
Standing outside the valley, he watched the master and disciple sneakily walk into the valley. The valley itself had a small Maze Formation, which was used to prevent ordinary people from the secular world from accidentally finding this place. Not to mention that the method used was not brilliant, for a truly powerful cultivator, it was simply a formation that could be seen through with a single glance.
Even Qi Condensation Stage cultivators had the ability of the Spirit Eye Technique, which allowed them to see many things that ordinary people could not see, as well as to detect the cultivation level of cultivators. However, if the other party's cultivation level was higher than one level, they would not be able to see any information.
Therefore, this small formation could be seen through at a glance. The master and disciple did not disturb others at all, and passed through the formation and entered the valley. Seeing all this, Di Shitian was not in a hurry to go in. He had already arrived at his destination. Whether or not he could obtain the treasure depended on whether the Du Family had it or not. If they did not have it, it would be useless to rush in.
Carefully observing the valley in front of him, this valley was the best place in the vicinity where Spiritual Qi gathered. The Spiritual Qi in the valley was particularly rich compared to other places. However, this was only relative to the secular world. It was not like the famous mountains and rivers in the Cultivation World, where the Spiritual Qi was truly abundant. Compared to the Myriad Demon Valley, this valley was just a barren place. It could not be compared to the Myriad Demon Valley.
However, the scenery was still quiet. Moreover, even standing outside the valley, there were still bursts of wine fragrance coming from the valley. After smelling it, he could not help but secretly say in his heart, "The Du Family is indeed worthy of being an ancestral winemaker."
After a little sizing up, he easily entered the valley. The space in the valley was neither big nor small, and could accommodate hundreds of people living inside. There were also various kinds of fruit trees planted in the valley, and a mountain spring was drawn from the mountain. It was a good place to go. In the valley, a villa stood tall, and there were many houses in the villa. Many of the rooms were still lit.
The two cultivators in front lightly entered the villa, and as if they did not want to disturb others, they shuttled back and forth between the rooms, constantly searching for something. They wanted to secretly find the Wine God's Secret Sutra and leave without being noticed. This way, they could maintain their concealment and there would be no danger in the future.
However, their luck was not very good. Just as they were investigating a small part of the house, a maid in the villa seemed to be going to the toilet. The moment she came out, she saw two black shadows flash in front of her eyes, and the lantern in her hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
"Ah! Thieves! Someone's here! "
A sharp cry came out of her mouth almost in an instant. The voice was so sharp that it pierced through the sky and broke the originally silent atmosphere in the valley. One by one, the night lanterns lit up. In the blink of an eye, the entire villa was brightly lit. It was as bright as day.
However, even though the maid issued a warning, she didn't have a good ending. An earthen yellow flying sword drew out a bright yellow light in the air and lightly coiled around her neck. Her scream came to a stop, and with a 'plop' sound, her delicate and pretty head directly smashed onto the ground, blood gushing out from the wound.
The speed of the attack was fast, and there was not the slightest bit of tenderness. A sword flew over to behead her. Green blood soared three feet into the sky.
"Hmph! Which friend has the interest to come to my Du Clan's humble home in the middle of the night, and even kill someone? Are you not putting my Du Clan in your eyes? " A cold snort was heard from the manor, and three figures quickly rushed out of the house.
Each of them had a small flying sword in their hands. The one in the lead was middle-aged, and his cultivation was not very high, only at the fifth layer of Qi Refining. He held a flying sword in one hand, and a talisman in the other. The two behind him were an old man, forty or fifty years old, and his body emitted waves of energy, indicating that he was also at the seventh layer of Qi Refining. The last was a young man with a childish face, and his cultivation was the lowest, at the third layer of Qi Refining.
The three people who flew out of the house were naturally from the Du Clan. Although the Du Clan was only a small clan, it was still a clan. Their ancestral heritage still had some resources, and at the very least, they did not lack flying swords and talismans. After they came out, they all looked at the master and disciple, and their auras immediately became entangled.
"Hehe!! Initially, I didn't intend to alarm you. I just wanted to find the item and leave quietly. Since I've already alarmed you, I won't waste any more words. The reason I'm here today is because I heard that there's a treasure in your Du Family. If you don't want the Du Family to be exterminated, I advise you to hand it over. This old man promises that as soon as I get the item, I'll immediately leave. I won't make things difficult for others. " The ninth layer Qi Refining master rolled his eyes and let out a strange laugh, and his body emitted an intense pressure. He appeared to be incomparably domineering.
"Treasure?" Du Qing's expression changed. He put on a brave front and shouted, "Humph, my Du Clan doesn't have any treasure. If we did, why wouldn't we use it?"
"How would this old man know? Don't think that your Du Clan's business is very secretive. If you know what's good for you, hand over the Wine God's Secret Sutra." The old man bluntly pointed out what he already knew, but he didn't make a move. The Du Clan's strength couldn't be considered weak. They had cultivators at the fifth and seventh layer of Qi Refining, and with the addition of the Du Clan's own resources, they definitely had more resources than rogue cultivators. The gap between cultivators at the Qi Refining stage wasn't very large. If they really fought, it was hard to predict who would win and who would lose.
At that moment, Di Shitian, who was hiding in the dark, saw that when the old cultivator of the Du Clan heard about the Wine God's Secret Sutra, he suddenly glanced behind the mountain villa as if by conditioned reflex.
Just this one glance was enough for him to take note of it. His feet moved, and he silently bypassed the area in front of the villa and swept towards the back of the villa. The black robe on his body allowed him to blend in well with the night. In addition, his cultivation far surpassed everyone in the valley. No one noticed that there was such a person in the valley.
As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Regardless of whether it was the master and disciple or the Du Clan, with their cultivation, they couldn't attract his attention. No matter how many Qi Refining cultivators came, he could kill them all. What he cared about was whether or not the Du Clan had the Wine God's Secret Sutra. If they did, he would take it. If they didn't, he would deal with it later. Seeing the expressions of the Du Clan, Di Shitian guessed that perhaps there really was such a thing.
"Just now, that old cultivator suddenly glanced behind the mountain villa. If there really is the Wine God's Secret Sutra, it should be somewhere behind the mountain villa."
He secretly thought in his heart, but his speed was not slow. He silently went from the front of the villa to the back, and an ancient ancestral hall appeared in front of him. The ancestral hall was a symbol for a family, and also a place to worship the ancestors. If someone in the family died, the deceased's memorial tablet would be placed in the ancestral hall.
This kind of place was generally the foundation of the clan's inheritance. It had always been regarded as a very important place.
"Du Clan Ancestral Hall!"
Di Shitian raised his head and looked at the plaque above the door. With a thought, his demon sense quickly spread out and covered the entire ancestral hall. There was a Qi Refining cultivator guarding the ancestral hall. After sensing it, a tyrannical force burst out from his demon sense and directly pierced the cultivator's mind. The cultivator let out a muffled groan and fell to the ground.
After dealing with the cultivator inside, Liu Ming easily entered the ancestral hall. After entering, he closed the door again and carefully looked around the ancestral hall. There were several hundred plaques in the main hall. Clearly, they were all the ancestors of the Du Clan. Above these plaques was a wall with a portrait hanging on it.
It could be seen that the portrait was very old. Even the color had begun to turn yellow, but the portrait in the painting was still vivid and lifelike. It was an old man with a head full of white hair in his forties. He was riding on the back of a white bull. In one hand, he held an ancient jade book. In the other, he held a green jade gourd. He was pouring wine into his mouth. His face was filled with drunkenness.
"Good painting!"
After Sakra saw it, for a long time, he couldn't help but secretly exclaim in his heart. This painting was extremely vivid, allowing people to see what the painting wanted to express at a glance. It allowed people to clearly feel that this was the "Old Man Riding a Bull Drunk Immortal Painting".
Although he didn't know who the old man in the painting was, he always remembered that he didn't come in to look at a painting, but to find the "Wine God's Secret Sutra".
He quietly shifted his gaze away and scanned the surroundings again. This time, he looked very carefully. With his cultivation, even if it was night, he would still be able to see as clearly as day. Almost nothing in the small ancestral hall could escape his eyes. However, he discovered a very depressing matter after a search.
"Nothing? Impossible. There is only this ancestral hall behind the villa. If it is hiding something, the ancestral hall should be a good place. Why can't I find it? "
In the ancestral hall, almost every inch of the ground under his feet was carefully scanned. There was nothing unusual. He even released his demon sense at the same time, but the result was still the same. Except for the plaques, there was nothing else worthy of attention in the ancestral hall. He checked three times in a row, but still couldn't find anything different.
Logically speaking, if there was something, there was a ninety percent chance that it was hidden here.
"Could it be that there is some hidden mechanism or restriction that blocks my demon sense?"
After carefully pondering for a while, an idea appeared in his mind. As soon as this idea appeared, his gaze involuntarily fell on the "Old Man riding a bull." Hanging high on the wall, his gaze fell on the "Old Man Riding a Bull." His eyes gradually became a little different. If you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com.
