Chapter 274 Ancient Treasures

After hearing the responses from the two, Chen Yun nodded calmly to show his agreement. With a flash of light in his hand, the purple ancient mirror disappeared without a trace.

Then he waved his sleeves lightly, and the materials and jade box on the ground disappeared.

After witnessing what Chen Yun had done, Nanlong Hou and the elder were no longer polite.

Each of them carefully put the two medicine bottles into their own storage bags.

Then, the three of them naturally shifted their attention to the remaining two ancient treasures.

Although there are now two treasures, they need to be shared among three people, which is indeed quite tricky.

Just as Nanlong Hou and the elder were in hesitation, Chen Yun blinked slightly, and then suddenly a faint smile appeared on his face.

"So recently. Although I am not short of ancient treasures."

"But if you two Taoist friends have enough spiritual stones, then you can choose from these two ancient treasures."

"Just pay me the spiritual stones of equal value that I deserve."

Chen Yun said these words leisurely.

"Thank you, Daoist Brother Chen, for being so generous. We are both very grateful. I do have quite a few spirit stones on me."

Hearing this, the old man surnamed Lu suddenly showed a look of joy and immediately agreed readily.

After all, in the world of immortal cultivation in the south of the Tian Dynasty, ancient treasures are extremely valuable and are in short supply.

Nanlong Hou himself was extremely short of ancient treasures, so he accepted Chen Yun's proposal with a smile on his face.

So, after these two people took great pains to collect all the spirit stones on them, they finally gathered enough and gave them to Chen Yun.

In this way, both parties have achieved a satisfactory result and everyone is happy.

Chen Yun watched as Nanlong Hou and his two companions put the remaining two ancient treasures into their pockets.

He waved his hand casually as if he was not paying attention, and sucked the green silk robe that had been thrown aside by Nanlong Hou into his hand, and then put it into his storage bag without hesitation.

When Nanlong Hou and the other man saw this scene, they were shocked, but considering that Chen Yun had just given them the two ancient treasures, they did not want to raise any objections.

Although this green silk robe is rare, its actual use is not very great, so Chen Yun naturally put it in his pocket.

After the three of them divided the treasures equally, they were still a little greedy and picked the spiritual herbs around the lava lake. Each person got a few plants.

These magical herbs can grow luxuriantly here, so they are naturally not ordinary things.

They are a kind of fire-attributed spiritual herb called "Golden Yangzhi", which is the top-level material for refining fire-attributed spiritual pills.

After confirming that there was nothing else worthy of their attention here, the three of them gathered in front of the stone platform again to discuss their next plan of action.

"Since we have obtained the treasure, Chen no longer plans to stay in the inner valley, but decided to return along the original route and go directly to the outer valley. I wonder if the two fellow Taoists are willing to go with us?" Chen Yun spoke first slowly.

"Fellow Daoist Chen is really a joker. Brother Lu and I have finally been able to enter the inner valley, so we will not give up this opportunity easily."

"On the other hand, Brother Chen, why are you so eager to leave Neigu?"

Nanlong Hou asked with a smile.

"There is no special reason. It's just that Chen has gained something, so he doesn't want to take the risk anymore. The future path of cultivation is still very long, and I am not interested in staying in such a dangerous environment for a long time."

Chen Yun answered casually.

"Haha! I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Chen actually knows how to protect himself. It's a pity that the two of us can't go with you. Fellow Daoist Chen can leave first."

The old man surnamed Lu responded with a smile.

"Leave alone? But if Chen takes the Liangyi Ring away, how will you two Taoist friends deal with the North Pole Yuanguang in the passage?"

A strange look appeared on Chen Yun's face, and he asked slowly.

"We have already made full preparations for this. Don't worry, Brother Chen!"

"That Master Cang Kun has already found a teleportation array in the inner valley, which can directly teleport to the outer valley."

"But it takes a long way to get there. By comparison, it is faster to return the same way. Otherwise, I would have told my friends about this long ago."

Nanlong Hou replied confidently.

Chen Yun was stunned for a moment, but it was gone in a flash. His face returned to normal, and he nodded slightly and said:
"I see. Then I will take my leave of you two. I hope you will achieve fruitful results in your next adventure."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chen, for your hope!"

"Lu will no longer see you off."

Nanlong Hou and the old man surnamed Lu were delighted to see that Chen Yun was really willing to leave.

Chen Yun gestured with a smile, and finally glanced at the crystal clear skeleton with a vague look, and instantly disappeared at the exit, turning into a green light and disappearing from sight in an instant.

The old man, who had been smiling all the time, gradually lost his smile when he saw Chen Yun leaving.

Nanlong Hou patted the spirit beast bag on his waist expressionlessly, and several golden birds flew out of the bag.

These are the spiritual birds he cultivated - the orioles.

Nanlong Hou waved his sleeves and flicked towards the exit. Several orioles turned into balls of golden light and rushed out. They also entered the passage and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Then, Nanlong Hou gently closed his eyes, as if he was sensing something.

Seeing this, Lu Weiying raised his eyebrows slightly, then stood quietly aside without saying a word.

Time seemed to have stopped. After an unknown amount of time had passed, Nanlonghou's eyelids trembled slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes.

"That fellow Taoist has indeed left. At least he is not around here right now. Qianlili has searched the surrounding area within ten miles and has not found any trace of him."

Nanlong Hou said calmly.

"You mentioned before that this person's spiritual awareness is quite powerful. Perhaps he used some hidden means to avoid your search." The old man surnamed Lu frowned and raised a question.

"Please rest assured. If he is really hiding nearby and has not left, he will definitely not be able to escape my perception. As for the reason, I'm sorry I can't explain it in detail to Brother Lu." Nanlong Hou touched his chin and revealed a mysterious smile.

Seeing Nanlong Hou so confident, Lu Weiying felt a little confused.

However, after thinking for a moment, he clasped his hands together and cast several spells in all directions.

A small soundproof cover like a mist appeared quietly, completely covering them.

Nanlong Hou smiled slightly, but there was a look of disdain on his face.

"It is always better to be cautious. We have not been able to uncover the details of this fellow Daoist Chen. Although his cultivation is not very high, he gives me the feeling that he is unfathomable." "He took a last look at the skeleton. I wonder if he noticed anything unusual?"

Lu Weiying spoke with relief only after he had finished setting up the soundproofing enclosure. However, when he said the last sentence, his tone was filled with surprise and confusion.

"Brother Lu, you are really too worried. Although Chen Yun is a powerful man, how could he possibly know the secrets of the bones?"

"I guess he just did it unintentionally. After all, this skeleton does look a little unusual." Nanlong Hou shook his head and said calmly.

“Whether he really sensed anything unusual or not, he clearly didn’t want to go with us. Perhaps he thought that his own strength was enough to handle the challenges in the inner valley.”

After thinking for a moment, the old man said with enlightenment.

"Alright! As long as this guy doesn't interfere with our plan, it doesn't matter whether he really left or pretended to leave. We just need to be vigilant. It's getting late now, so we should hurry up and act."

According to the letter left by Master Canglan, the remains of these ancient practitioners are the key to breaking the door of the blood curse.

Such a powerful ban blocked this door, and it was obvious that the secret hidden in it was extraordinary. In ancient times, the Blood Curse Door was usually used as a place to store treasures.

The body of the ancient practitioner in front of him had turned transparent, which undoubtedly confirmed that he had once used this spell.

"Master Canglan had to return home in disappointment, but he left this opportunity for us."

Nanlong Hou said with great emotion.

"Indeed. Compared to the deep treasure behind the Blood Curse Gate, the treasure we have obtained now is almost insignificant. Well, it's time for us to act."

"Although the blood curse door is not far from here, we still need to retrieve the treasure as soon as possible to prevent any accidents."

The old man surnamed Lu said after thinking for a moment.

"Elder Lu's opinion makes sense. Let's set off immediately. I am also full of endless expectations for the items behind the Blood Curse Gate."

“If Master Canglan had not happened to find the remains of this ancient practitioner near the Blood Curse Gate, I’m afraid we would be helpless against this gate.”

"The person who cast the curse did not leave the Blood Curse Gate, but passed away here. This is really unbelievable. I think this ancient practitioner must have had a legendary experience unknown to the world."

"The so-called legendary experience does not mean much to me. Brother Nanlong, let's go."

Not long after, two bright rays of light shot up into the sky from the cave under the giant peak, passed through the giant peak, and rushed towards an unknown direction.

……

At this moment, Chen Yun did not stay where he was, but had already started his journey back.

At this moment, he was already more than a hundred miles away from here, and the Silver Moon in his mind was asking something.

"Master, are you really determined to leave like this?"

"Those two obviously concealed some important information. There also seem to be some suspicious points about the remains."

Yin Yue asked with full of doubts.

"Of course I know about this. They are probably looking for other treasures. Although I am also quite tempted. However, what I am more concerned about right now is the matter of the Spirit Candle Fruit."

"Besides this item, are there any other treasures in the valley that could be more beneficial to me?"

"Now that I have fallen behind the Ghost Spirit Sect for so long, no matter what Nanlong Hou and Elder Lu are planning, I don't want to get involved in it anymore."

Chen Yun responded calmly while flying according to the original route.

"I see. Compared to the Spirit Candle Fruit, there is indeed no other treasure in the Fallen Demon Valley that is more precious to the master."

"But why did the master suddenly pick up the green silk robe in the end? I didn't notice that the master had any greed for it."

Yin Yue asked a new question out of curiosity.

"Haha! In this case, it can be said that the two old seniors are just blind."

When Chen Yun heard this, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a hint of sarcasm.

"Master, what exactly do you mean?" Yin Yue became more and more confused.

Chen Yun did not give an answer immediately, but suddenly reached into the storage bag.

A green light flashed by, and the green silk robe appeared in Chen Yun's palm.

With a "hiss", Chen Yun's fingers were like sharp claws, easily tearing the edge of the green silk robe apart. Yin Yue couldn't help but let out a surprised cry.

Because Chen Yun actually took out a piece of material that was neither cloth nor silk from the gap in the green robe.

The above is actually drawn in the most primitive way, with some simple lines of uneven thickness drawn with charcoal.

Chen Yun put the torn green robe into his pocket, holding the soft fragment in his hand, and observing it carefully with his eyes slightly narrowed.

"This is actually a map. And it looks like a map of the Demon Valley."

Chen Yun stared at the item in his hand, and Yin Yue naturally saw it clearly. After just a few glances, she couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

As Chen Yun observed in silence, he stared closely at several eye-catching, large marks on the map. His gaze seemed to penetrate the map, and his eyes narrowed slightly involuntarily.

Without Yin Yue's telling, Chen Yun had already preliminarily identified the general layout of the map, which was indeed exactly the same as the terrain of the Demon Valley.

However, apart from these few marks, the rest of the map is drawn extremely simply, and only in the marked areas is the image presented in great detail.

It not only depicts the inner valley area where the mark is located, but also clearly marks the surrounding terrain and environment.

However, after a little calculation, Chen Yun found that the location of the mark was quite far away from his current location, and he might encounter various unknown dangers along the way.

After a brief thought, Chen Yun finally shook his head and decided to give up the idea of ​​exploring this mark for the time being.

Although he knew very well that there must be some important secret hidden behind this mark, he did not want to cause any trouble before the problem of the Lingzhu Fruit was solved.

As for whether to go there to find out in the future, I will naturally have to wait until I get the Lingzhu Fruit before making a decision.

Yin Yue seemed to understand Chen Yun's thoughts and didn't say anything more.

Instead, Chen Yun turned his palm again, took out the new jade box, and casually put it into the bamboo tube behind him, then calmly said to Dayan Shenjun:

"Many of the materials needed for this Seven Flame Fan have become extinct or are simply impossible to find."

"But with your talent, perhaps you can find a suitable replacement."

"If you can really successfully imitate the spiritual treasure in today's world of immortal cultivation, then my admiration for you will be like a surging river, endless." (End of this chapter)
