Serpent Ancestor

Chapter 189: Enter the cave to seek treasure, the restless spirits linger

This would drive any Core Formation cultivator mad!

Of course, achieving Nascent Soul isn't as simple as just taking a pill; it also requires comprehending the essence of the Dao. However, the Nascent Soul Pill can greatly increase the success rate.

In addition, among those pill bottles, there are Divine Marrow Pills that can alter one's Spiritual Root, Sky Blue Pills that clear the mind and eyes, and various other pills that have vanished from the world today.

"I found a Sky Blue Pill in the cave dwelling."

"And that Hao Yuan Pill, I think the one I found is that exact bottle."

Zhang Tie quickly took out a pill bottle and compared it with the Historical Projections, finding it almost identical, indeed a bottle refined by ancient cultivators.

"Does this mean that the Nascent Soul Pill and Longevity Pill can also be found in the cave dwelling?"

Zhang Tie looked at Xu Qingfeng.

At this moment, the Chu Tian Alliance could hardly sit still. If there really were Longevity Pills and Nascent Soul Pills here, they would spare no cost to obtain them!

However, the appearance of the Historical Projections was ill-timed, as almost everyone present had seen it.

Xu Hei's eyes flickered. If he were Xu Qingfeng, he would immediately act, killing everyone except those from the Chu Tian Alliance to prevent the news from leaking.

But Xu Qingfeng clearly had no such intention, not even considering it.

As the enforcement elder of the Astrology Bureau, he had adhered to Confucian principles for a hundred years. Even after joining the Chu Tian Alliance, he still upheld the old rules and his own bottom line.

As an enforcement elder, if he were to trample the law and kill the innocent, what law would there be to enforce?

Fairness and integrity are the bottom lines of an enforcer, and also Xu Qingfeng's Dao.

Xu Hei saw his inaction and sighed inwardly.

At this moment, in the Historical Projections.

The ancient alchemist organized all the pill bottles, sticking a talisman on each one.

"These sealing talismans are enough to preserve the efficacy for ten thousand years. If future generations open them, remember to consume them quickly."

The Historical Projections made no sound, but one could see his mouth moving, deducing what he was saying.

These pills were left for future generations!

At this moment, everyone was convinced that these pills were all hidden in the cave dwelling, waiting to be discovered.

Xu Hei felt a sense of doubt. It was said that Historical Projections appeared randomly, but this scene didn't seem random at all.

It seemed like a deliberate design, triggered by certain conditions, intentionally shown to future generations.

Before long, the Historical Projections faded away.

"Everyone, gather!"

Xu Qingfeng shouted, and the scattered cultivators affiliated with the Chu Tian Alliance all gathered, totaling fifty people.

There were only seven members of the Chu Tian Alliance: Xu Qingfeng, Zhang Tie, the Silver-haired Witch, Ku Xuan, along with Xiao Chou, Zhao Wenzhuo, and even that vulture.

The rest were all scattered cultivators.

It was evident that the Chu Tian Alliance still had strong appeal, which was the advantage of being righteous.

Of course, this harmony was only temporary.

"We will sweep through this cave dwelling with all our might. As usual, if you find treasures like the Nascent Soul Pill or Longevity Pill, you can keep them or exchange them with me for items of equal value..."

Xu Qingfeng briefly explained.

All the scattered cultivators were invigorated.

Originally, with their strength, they didn't even qualify to break into the Blood Corpse Cave. Now, with strong leaders clearing the way, they could search for treasures for free, keeping whatever they found. Such a good deal was rare in the world.

If not for this, they wouldn't have willingly joined.

"Move out!"

Under the lead of the Chu Tian Alliance, everyone rushed into the cave dwelling.

The evil cultivators at the back also followed suit, entering the cave dwelling.

Xu Hei mingled among the evil cultivators, everyone wary of each other, keeping a distance.

For some reason, the five members of the Blood Robe Sect followed behind Xu Hei, seemingly treating him as a pillar of support.

Xu Hei ignored them. At this moment, a battle had already erupted ahead, with terrifying shockwaves rolling in. A Purple-haired Yaksha and Yellow-haired Corpse Charm leapt out, engaging in a fierce battle with the Chu Tian Alliance.

As the battle continued, more and more corpse puppets crawled out from the ground, fiercely attacking the crowd. The scattered cultivators joined forces to fight back, gaining and losing ground.

Fortunately, the cave dwelling was quite stable, not shaking too violently. Outside, it would have collapsed a hundred times over.

The evil cultivators were surprisingly well-behaved, not daring to launch sneak attacks from behind, fearing retribution from the Chu Tian Alliance later.

Xu Hei looked around, seeing the ground beneath him break open, a claw reaching out to grab him, followed by a head rising from the ground, revealing a green-haired zombie.

"Whoosh!"

A flash of black light came from Xu Hei's sleeve.

The green-haired zombie instantly froze.

With a casual wave of his sleeve, Xu Hei turned the zombie's body into flying ash, dispersing it completely.

This move left the five people behind him dumbfounded.

"So strong!"

"What was that just now?"

They hadn't seen Ji Ying's move clearly, only perceiving a black line flash by, and the corpse puppet was gone.

After learning the Ever-changing Fish and Dragon, Ji Ying's speed could only be described as incredible. And this wasn't even at full speed; at full speed, it was even more exaggerated.

The five exchanged glances, seemingly deciding to stick close to Xu Hei, as it seemed the safest.

Xu Hei extended his Divine Sense, searching inch by inch on a stone wall, seemingly looking for some kind of mechanism or secret door.

Unfortunately, he found nothing.

Xu Hei was completely clueless about treasure hunting, having no experience. He communicated with Ji Ying, "Ji Ying, where do you think there might be treasures?"

Ji Ying also showed no reaction.

"Useless thing, all you do is eat." Xu Hei muttered inwardly.

"Buzz!"

Ji Ying seemed to hear Xu Hei's thoughts, sending back a dissatisfied emotion.

At this moment, the battle ahead was nearing its end. With the full force of the Chu Tian Alliance, the emerging corpse puppets were suppressed one by one into the ground, letting out unwilling roars.

Corpse puppets were hard to kill; not everyone had Xu Hei's means to destroy them. They mainly focused on suppression and sealing.

"Buzz!"

Ji Ying suddenly sent a craving emotion, pointing at the suppressed corpse puppets ahead.

"Eat, eat, eat until you die!" Xu Hei cursed inwardly.

Despite his words, Xu Hei flew forward. Since there were no benefits at the entrance, he could only search ahead.

He arrived at a suppressed Purple-haired Yaksha, letting Ji Ying in to devour it.

The Yaksha, with a sealing talisman on it, couldn't move its body, but its hands could still move. It clawed at Ji Ying, sending it flying. Ji Ying was furious, charging again like lightning, biting off one of the Yaksha's ears.

At this moment, more and more cultivators were pouring in, the numbers increasing.

After the news spread, everyone nearby had gathered, and it wouldn't be long before the Zhou Family, Bai Family, and the four sects of the Southern Region would also arrive.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Two figures flashed in, one of them an old Taoist whose eyes gleamed as he looked at Xu Hei's back, quickly catching up and arriving behind him, smiling, "How should I address this fellow Taoist?"

Xu Hei's eyebrow twitched, calmly retracting Ji Ying, and looked at the old Taoist behind him.

This person, with white hair and beard, holding a horsetail whisk, had a kind smile but shifty eyes, sizing up Xu Hei. It was none other than Tianji Shangren.

And the other middle-aged cultivator was Liu Buqun.

"Persistent old man."

Xu Hei cursed inwardly, maintaining a calm demeanor, "I am Tianji Shangren, Tianji."

He emphasized the last two words.

"..." Tianji Shangren's smile froze instantly.

Liu Buqun was also taken aback, his expression rather peculiar.
