Chapter 179

"Is it difficult to find treasure here, or is it related to the opening of the cave?" Yin Mo calmly raised the question in his mind.

"What Daoyou Yin said makes sense. I also plan to explain it later."

"If Daoist Nanlong and I were able to obtain the treasure alone, we would naturally not share it with others."

"However, the last time we quietly entered the Mulan Grassland to look for that cave, although the location was hidden, we found it with some effort based on the clues left by Master Cangkun."

"But the headache is that there is a mysterious ancient magic circle outside. Although we tried our best, we couldn't crack it."

"Since we are in the Mulan Grassland, we dare not stay for long. We can only record the characteristics of the magic circle and return to Tiannan for special research."

"Finally, I discovered that this magic array is the lost 'Tai Miao Divine Forbidden' from ancient times."

"Tai Miao Divine Forbidden! That's one of the ten ancient forbidden areas, right? How could it appear there?" Wang Tiangu showed a look of surprise.

Although others didn't know much about the "Tai Miao Divine Prohibition", they also felt a chill after hearing this.

The Ten Ancient Forbidden Things! Just by hearing the name, you know they are not good things.

There was a flash of surprise in Yin Mo's eyes, but he immediately restrained himself and remained calm.

"I've heard that Brother Wang is an expert in formations, and his reputation is well-deserved. He's able to know such a rare ancient restriction!" Nanlong Hou praised.

“Brother Nanlong, you are too kind. I have only heard of the name but have no idea how it actually works.” Wang Tiangu said modestly.

The old man in white shirt smiled and continued:
"We have studied for several years and found that in order to remove this restriction, we can either use brute force to break it, or find eight cultivators with strong spiritual consciousness to use the divine power of spiritual consciousness transformation to remove it."

"Break it with brute force will definitely not work. The Taimiao Divine Forbidden Zone is extremely sophisticated. Even if we attack day and night for several months, we may not be able to open it."

“And in the Mulan Grassland, we can’t display our magical powers wantonly.”

"But if we use our spiritual consciousness to transform into a human form to remove this restriction, as long as your spiritual consciousness is strong enough, we can remove the formation within a day."

After hearing this, everyone understood why Nanlonghou and his companions had summoned them.

Although other mid-Nascent Soul cultivators also had powerful enough spiritual awareness, Nanlong Hou was obviously unwilling to allow overly powerful people to join in order to avoid any unfavorable situations.

After all, both of them were mid-Nascent Soul cultivators, and when they joined forces, although they could not say that they could definitely defeat Yin Mo and the others, they could still maintain a balance. They really put a lot of thought into it.

Everyone had made up their minds. Nanlong Hou asked a few questions and when he saw that no one backed down, he smiled with satisfaction.

"However, there is one thing I have to tell you in advance."

"If we successfully enter the cave, we will each take one of the treasures inside, and then we can divide it equally."

"What do you think, fellow Taoists?" Nanlong Hou put forward his own conditions.

Wang Tiangu and other cultivators had no objection to the conditions proposed by Nanlonghou and the other man.

After all, regardless of their cultivation level or their identities as initiators, it is normal for them to get more treasures.

They all tacitly agreed.

In order to avoid any complications, everyone immediately agreed to set off two days later without waiting for the trade fair to end.

Everyone swore not to disclose the matter and left the place one after another.

However, Yin Mo saw that Nanlonghou and the other man were extremely confident and did not seem to be worried about other people's little actions.

He thought that the address and the method to break the ban were in the hands of these two people. With their scheming and magical powers, it would be difficult for others to come up with any conspiracy.

Yin Mo agreed to this trip for his own reasons.

Ever since he reached the Nascent Soul stage, the progress of his Qing Yuan Sword Technique could be described as a snail's pace because there were no suitable elixirs available.

Yin Mo estimated that if he relied on his own hard practice in the cave, it would probably take two to three hundred years before he could reach the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage.

As for whether one can enter the middle stage of Nascent Soul later, it depends on opportunity and luck.

Qualifications are not the most important thing.

Because the Nascent Soul cultivators who can reach this stage are all extremely talented.

According to Yin Mo's original plan, after the trade fair ended, he would go into seclusion to practice secret techniques for more than a hundred years.

After all the skills have been accomplished to some extent, he will leave the cave and travel around to look for ancient ruins and natural treasures.

Only in this way can we find an opportunity for a breakthrough and see if we can enter the next level ahead of time.

Now that he has the chance to obtain the famous treasure of the Demon Valley, how could Yin Mo give it up?

Maybe this is his chance!

The other people's thoughts were probably similar to his.

These Nascent Soul monsters have been stuck in the early stages for who knows how many years, and they will not let go of any opportunity to break through.

The demon cultivator who died in the Demon Valley was no ordinary ancient cultivator. It is said that he was also the top among the ancient cultivators at that time.

The skills or elixirs left behind are naturally extraordinary.

Just based on this point, it is impossible for Yin Mo and the others not to be tempted.

However, since the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect will also be going with them, Yin Mo will naturally do it without hesitation if there is a chance to get rid of him on the way.

As long as he is not caught by Wang Tiangu of the Ghost Spirit Sect, what else can the other party do? You must know that the Demonic Path and his current Heavenly Path Alliance were originally hostile.

Yin Mo was walking on a bluestone street towards his residence while thinking with murderous intent in his heart.

However, he didn't know that in an alley several streets away from him, Wang Tiangu was walking leisurely.

Wang Chan and Yan Ruyan followed silently behind.

"When you go back, tell me in detail about your grievances with this world."

"Looking at that man's appearance, it seems that he still has a grudge against you. From now on, you and your wife should not stay too far away from me to avoid a sudden attack from the other party." Wang Tiangu ordered slowly.

"Yes, second uncle. I didn't expect that due to my momentary negligence, I would create a powerful enemy for myself."

"This person actually broke through the Jindan and Yuanying realms in such a short period of time. This really surprised me!"

Wang Chan answered respectfully. But when he thought that Yin Mo had become a Yuanying cultivator, he felt frustrated and depressed.

"Humph! You don't have to be too discouraged."

"With the powerful power of the Blood Spirit Technique, even if you and your wife join forces, you may not really be afraid of this kid."

"Moreover, as long as the Blood Spirit Technique breaks through the seventh level, you and Ruyan will both be able to condense your Nascent Soul."

"By then, it's hard to say who will cause trouble for whom! However, you and your wife should be more careful when you go to Mulan Grassland this time."

"Even if I really have to leave you for something urgent, you should not separate. If we join forces, we should be able to protect ourselves." Wang Tiangu said with a sneer.

"Thank you for your guidance, second uncle!" After hearing what Wang Tiangu said, Wang Chan felt a lot more at ease and hurried to thank him.

"Hey! Among you brothers, I am most optimistic about you."

"Otherwise I wouldn't have brought you to the trade fair alone."

"However, that boy was originally a cultivator from the Yellow Maple Valley, and it seems that old Linghu also personally participated in this trade fair."

"Could this kid have any relationship with that old ghost?" Wang Tiangu whispered to himself, seeming to be very afraid of the Linghu ancestor of the Huangfeng Valley.

After hearing this, Wang Chan and Yan Ruyan also showed a look of surprise and doubt to each other. ...

Yin Mo returned to his residence and slept for a night. He got up the next day and spent the whole day hastily purchasing the necessary materials. Then he told Mu Peiling about it and prepared to ask Lu Luo to take her back.

Lu Luo was naturally surprised to hear that Yin Mo was going to leave before the end of the trade fair, but Yin Mo did not intend to explain further, and he did not ask the reason and agreed immediately.

This made Yin Mo like Senior Brother Lu even more.

For the rest of the day, Yin Mo did not go out, but meditated in the attic for the whole day.

When the agreed time arrived, Yin Mo calmly left the attic and headed alone towards a hill thousands of miles away in the south.

When they arrived at the destination, Nanlong Hou and the old man in white were already waiting there, without any followers.

Especially the Marquis of Nanlong, who changed out of his purple robe and jade crown and put on light yellow Confucian scholar's attire.

Then, the others arrived one after another, but the last three people from the Ghost Spirit Sect, Wang Tiangu, arrived together.

Seeing this, Yin Mo's face flashed with emotion.

After Nanlong Hou shouted "let's go", the nine people silently left Tiantian City and headed towards the Mulan Grassland in the south.

The city of Tiantian is located in the state of Yu, but it is not the country closest to the Mulan grassland.

The Nine-Nation Alliance and the countries bordering the Mulan Grassland are not actually bordering each other, but are separated by a loess wilderness stretching for nearly ten thousand miles.

There is little vegetation in this area, with yellow soil flying all over the sky and strong winds.

Therefore, it became a place where the Nine Nations Alliance and the mages fought each other.

Over the years, tens of thousands of cultivators have died on this land.

Even when not in official combat mode, this wasteland is extremely dangerous.

For many reasons, many monks and monks from both sides traveled back and forth in this land.

Some people blatantly kill people for treasures, while others break through the bottleneck of their cultivation on the brink of life and death.

Whatever the reason, they were all very confident in their own cultivation and were far more powerful than cultivators of the same level.

Most of them are cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and occasionally there are fights among cultivators in the Core Formation Stage.

Whenever a Jindan-level being appears, low-level cultivators immediately move away for fear of being affected.

As for the old monsters at the Nascent Soul level, they rarely appear in such places of minor fights.

Therefore, when Nanlong Hou brought Yin Mo and others into this place, no one paid much attention.

They viewed this wasteland as worthless.

For a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, a distance of ten thousand miles can be easily crossed in just half a day.

Therefore, they were not in a hurry and moved forward at a normal speed.

Nanlong Hou and the old man in white led the way, Wang Tiangu and three others followed behind, and Yin Mo and the others flew in the middle.

Several low-level monks were spotted along the way, but they simply ignored them and flew over their heads.

It was not known whether it was a coincidence or inevitability, but after they had been flying for half an hour, the old man in white shirt suddenly stopped.

"Brother Yun, what happened?" Nanlong Hou asked in surprise.

They took turns releasing their spiritual sense to monitor the surroundings, so they asked this question.

"There seems to be a strong wind ahead, something is not right!" The old man surnamed Yun narrowed his eyes and said solemnly.

"Strong wind? Isn't it normal to have strong winds in this place?" Nanlong Hou said in some surprise, and then he released his spiritual sense to explore the distance.

He knew that the old man in white shirt would not say this for no reason.

After hearing this, Yin Mo and the old woman looked at each other and began to release their spiritual sense.

When they investigated, they all showed expressions of surprise and doubt on their faces.

"This wind is definitely not naturally generated, there must be something wrong!" The old woman said with a gloomy face after she withdrew her spiritual sense.

Yin Mo's spiritual sense sensed a yellow wind sweeping in, reaching a height of over a hundred feet. Wherever it went, sand and rocks flew, and yellow dust rolled. It was like an evil dragon descending, bringing with it a strong murderous aura.

He was shocked!
Although his spiritual awareness is powerful, it is almost comparable to that of a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.

But like the other people, once his spiritual sense penetrated beyond a hundred miles, he could no longer go deeper and could only watch from afar.

After he activated the Dayan Jue, he concentrated his consciousness and tried to cross the yellow sand storm.

However, once the consciousness entered the wind and sand, it became drowsy and could only vaguely perceive the situation within a few dozen feet. And going deeper, it was also shrouded in fog.

Yin Mo was very surprised. Following the old woman's words, the cold-faced cultivator named You also stopped his spiritual sense investigation.

"Yes, this is the wind magic of the Mulan people! The magician who fought with me once used this 'Red Dust Ten Thousand Feet' magic."

"Once it is used, it can not only block the detection of our monks, but the yellow sand and wind in the wind can also have the miraculous effect of defense and trapping the enemy, which is quite tricky."

“However, the scene before our eyes is unprecedented. It seems to have expanded the scope of spiritual arts by hundreds or thousands of times. It is very strange.” Nanlong Hou said with a gloomy face.

"Mulan people?"

After hearing this, the expressions of the others changed slightly.

Wang Chan and Yan Ruyan looked even paler.

However, their status and cultivation here are relatively low, so they dare not speak easily.

"Brother Nanlong is right. Only a mage can make the wind and sand so terrifying."

"And judging by the power of this spiritual art, there may be many magicians hidden inside. Even if there are beings with the same level of cultivation as us, it is not impossible."

The old man in white shirt also spoke cautiously.

"How is this possible? What is the intention of the Mulan people to suddenly mobilize so many magicians?" the old woman asked in surprise.

"Mrs. Tai, when was the last time we had a truce with the Mulan people?" Wang Tiangu suddenly asked with a strange expression.

"It was about a hundred years ago! What you mean, brother Wang, is..." After hearing this, the old woman showed a look of sudden realization on her face.

"It's about time. Enough for the Mulan people to accumulate strength."

Wang Tiangu said lightly, with a look of sarcasm on his face.

"My brother is right. It's almost time to restart the war."

"How many immortal cultivators will perish this time? However, encountering the vanguard of the Mulan people is too coincidental."

Nanlong Hou murmured, revealing a hint of helplessness.

Others also thought it was too much of a coincidence.

"Coincidences are common in the world. Don't be too surprised."

"However, we now only have two options. One is to return the original route and avoid the Mulan vanguard in front of us."

"Come back to look for treasure when you have the chance. After all, treasures won't run away. There will always be another chance." (End of this chapter)
