Chapter 154: Each Showing Their Skill

d years ago. She's probably not even three hundred years old now. Even with a Heavenly Spirit Root, breaking through the Yuan Ying stage at such a young age is very rare. Her background must be extrao...Facing Baiyunshan's question, Yudaoyue remained calm. "Baiyun Daoist friend, Sister Qingting and I are only taking precautions. With your years of experience walking the rivers and lakes, you should understand. As long as the ancient ruins are real, there is no difference between Tianduan Mountain and Yuncang Great Marsh."

Qing Ting also said: "It's not intentional deception, my fellow disciples and I are also helpless. All of you Taoist friends should be able to roughly estimate the speed of the artifacts. This place is located at the junction of Tianduan Mountains and Yuncang Great Marsh. If you are worried about demons appearing, there is no need. Since the Blood Fiend Sect, a major demon sect in the south of Tianduan Mountain, was destroyed by the Pure Yang Sect, the smaller demon sects south of the Blood Fiend Sect either fled north in a panic or hid deep within the Tianduan Mountains, not daring to show their faces. There is actually not much danger here."

The people from Baiyun Mountain showed a slight ease in their expressions, and the others nodded slightly, accepting their explanation.

When the crowd's discontent finally subsided, Yu Da Yue secretly let out a breath of relief. He walked to the edge of the mountaintop and pointed towards the southeast direction: "The ancient ruins are just a few hundred miles ahead, nestled in the valley between two mountains. There's a layer of wind barrier above it. For all of you, passing through the wind barrier wouldn't be a problem, and it'll be done quietly. But when we break through, the commotion will certainly be significant, and it might spread outside, causing chaos and alerting the powerful demon deep within Tian Duan Mountain. We'll split into two teams, one on each side, flanking the perimeter and clearing all surrounding demonic beasts to prevent any disturbances."

Everyone agreed, and they quickly split into two teams.

Li Zai, Bai Yunshan, and the Liu brothers followed Qingting north, while Qin Sang and Wu Yuesheng followed Yu Daoyue south.

Three cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage joined forces. On their journey, they didn't encounter any significant difficulties. Qin Sang was enough to handle the situation with his Five Elements Breaking Law Sword. Seeing the Five Elements Breaking Law Sword, Yu Daiyue's eyes lit up.

"If the attack doesn't go well, Qin Shijie might have to step in."

Qin Sang naturally agreed.

Two mountains encircle a deep valley.

A gigantic mountain range stretches from north to south, its ends unseen, like a slumbering dragon sprawling across the land. Its peaks are all strikingly steep and formidable.

But the valley where the Gu Xiu ruins are located, with its surrounding mountains, seems quite ordinary and unremarkable.

The cliff faces lean against each other, forming a natural corridor. The deeper you go, the more open it becomes. This canyon is very well hidden, only after entering deep into the mountains will you suddenly realize that such a large canyon exists here.

The cliff face was as sharp as a knife, bare and unforgiving. Not a single blade of grass or tree could be seen clinging to its sides, making it impossible to climb. The rocks were a dull greenish-black, devoid even of moss, giving the impression of utter lifelessness.

A thick fog hung over the canyon, obscuring the view.

The Tianduan Mountains stretch endlessly, dark and humid. Deep in the mountains lies a treacherous valley shrouded in mist. Layers of withered leaves conceal a bottomless mire, breeding poisonous miasma capable of killing a man.

Along the way, places similar to this toxic swamp are not few.

But the miasma in this canyon was different from other places. Upon divine sense exploration, one discovered that it wasn't fog or haze, but formed by countless black evil winds intertwined like countless black pythons. It was very eerie.

Qin Sang and his two companions detoured around the mountain range, taking two days to clear out all the monsters. When they arrived at the ancient ruins of a cultivator, Qing Ting and the others hadn't arrived yet.

"Is the ancient ruins site right here"

>

Qin Sang and the others stood in mid-air above the chasm, overlooking it. Wu Yue Sheng asked in surprise,

“Not bad,” Yu Da Yue nodded. “This place is too secluded. My sister Qing Ting and I have been searching for a long time before we confirmed this location. The yin wind cleverly disguises itself as poisonous miasma, and we almost overlooked it. You two junior brothers, look at these yin winds, they are both tangible and shapeless, not formed naturally. After falling into the yin wind, not only will your figure flicker and be difficult to stand, but there is also endless demonic sound disturbing you. If a cultivator or demon beast with weaker strength stumbles in, they will surely meet misfortune. After we enter the yin wind barrier, we must also quickly fall downward and get out of here.”

Qin Sang pondered for a moment upon hearing this and asked, "Is there a spiritual vein here"

Yu Da Yue nodded and said, "Qin shixiong, your mind is sharp. There is indeed a hidden spiritual vein deep beneath this mountain range, and my sister Qing Ting and I only found two imperfect spirit eyes, which is very unusual. We suspect that the spirit eyes of the spiritual vein are located beneath the canyon. That's why we dare to say that this place is most likely an ancient cultivator's cave."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Qin Sang nodded silently. A cultivator with real ability would definitely choose a cave dwelling in a spiritual eye location. If it was used to seal evil creatures, unless there were special circumstances, there was no need for such high requirements, wasting a prime cave dwelling for nothing.

Moreover, he wasn't very afraid of evil spirits. The Guishui Yinlei Curse was a nemesis for demons and ghosts. At that time, just be cautious.

Thinking of this, Qin Sang stared at the Yin wind barrier and observed it carefully for a while before saying, "It looks more like a means to conceal the cave dwelling and prevent outsiders from intruding. It seems that the formation below is the main protective formation of the cave dwelling."

Three people sat quietly adjusting their breath at the peak of the mountain. After several more hours, Qing Ting and the others finally arrived late.

“I encountered a demonic black tiger, which delayed me for a while.”

Hearing their explanation, Qin Sang and the others were somewhat envious. The corpses of demonic beasts at the Yao Ling stage were top-grade spirit materials. Looking at the Liu brothers and others, they were all excited, obviously with a good harvest.

After several people from the Qingting faction rested, everyone flew to the sky above the canyon.

Qīngtíng's face darkened slightly as he reminded, "Fellow Daoists, please be careful. Before entering the Yin Wind Barrier, make sure you have taken measures to protect yourselves and your souls. Once you fall into the barrier, the powerful Yin Wind will immediately scatter us. Everyone will be preoccupied with their own safety and have no strength left to help others."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned serious.

Qin Sang was not afraid of the so-called demonic sound erosion, so he only urged Tian Xing Lei to form a light film covering his body. At the same time, he secretly held the She Yuan Cone in his palm to prevent accidents.

Then looking, everyone else is using their own skills.

Ching Ting and Yu Dai Yue were experienced as well, like Qin Sang, they only activated one defensive magic weapon. Li was more ostentatious, sword light swirling around him, like a swimming dragon.

But Wu Yue Sheng’s methods were so subtle, Qin Sang could barely feel any fluctuation in his aura.

The people of Baiyun Mountain then took out a sack, covering their heads with it. The sack looked just like the kind ordinary people used to carry grain, drab and gray.

What Qin Sang found most curious was the Liu brothers. He couldn't figure out how the two twin brothers managed to pass through the Yin Wind, something that even cultivators at the Qi Condensation stage feared.

However, they saw the Liu brothers leaning against each other, each holding an identical Dharma seal and muttering words.

After a series of movements, two figures shot divine light from their eyebrows, forming a luminous shield outside their bodies. Immediately, the shield contracted and attached itself to their persons, vanishing without a trace.

At this moment, Qin Sang actually felt a faint threat from the Liu brothers. He couldn't help but be secretly surprised. It seemed that Yu Dayue hadn't exaggerated. The Liu brothers did have the ability to contend with cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage.ce.Qin Sang wasn't in a hurry to leave the cave and try his luck. He continued to stay in his cave dwelling, refining other demonic flames and breaking through. His progress after the breakthrough inc...
