Chapter 1574 Being Targeted

Ye Chunyang and the others were unaware of what happened in the dense forest a hundred miles away.

Seeing that he accepted the demon pill, Gu Qian and Guan Ruoruo did not ask any more questions.

The two women explored for a while and found nothing. Gu Qian immediately called Qingchen back: "It seems that there are no other treasures here. Let's go to other places in the cave to have a look."

Guan Ruoruo nodded with regret. She originally thought that she would get some useful treasures by finding the remains of the owner of the cave here, but she found nothing.

However, it seems that there are other secret rooms in this cave. Since we have come here, we naturally have to explore them one by one.

Ye Chunyang had no objection to this.

The group immediately left the square platform and went deep into the cave again.

As before, Qingchen was responsible for using sword energy to dispel the demonic energy in the cave and led everyone forward, while Ye Chunyang slowly hung behind, sensing the surroundings from time to time.

"Lingsu, with your perception, can you find any natural treasures worth collecting in this cave?"

Ye Chunyang did not forget to ask.

"We haven't found any valuable spiritual medicine yet, but the spiritual energy in this cave is a bit special, and there may be some unusual treasures inside." Ling Su pondered for a moment and replied.

Ye Chunyang didn't take it to heart after hearing this.

In his eyes, there are not many treasures in the world that can impress him. They have seen the remains of the owner of this cave. With his cultivation in the Jindan realm, it is estimated that the treasures that exist will not be too high-level.

Gu Qian walked in silence, looking through the forks one by one, and his consciousness kept examining the surroundings to avoid any accidents.

Guan Ruoruo's soul cultivation has reached the soul-shaping stage, and her perception is also extremely sharp. At this time, she is also secretly investigating everything in the cave.

Suddenly, a heavy spiritual pressure came from the front.

Several people paused, raised their heads and looked forward, and saw that at the end of the cave, there were several closed stone doors with complex inscriptions printed on them, which seemed to be some kind of forbidden spells. The spiritual pressure came from these spells.

"This should be the place where the treasure of this cave is hidden." Guan Ruoruo raised her hand impatiently, and her mind turned into an invisible wave and rushed to a stone gate in front.

Ye Chunyang looked at the woman sideways and found that the latter's soul cultivation had reached the peak of the early stage of soul shaping, which was higher than he expected.

At Guan Ruoruo's age, she was already a genius in soul art to reach such a level of soul cultivation.

However, Ye Chunyang did not pay much attention to it. After turning his eyes, he also looked at the stone gates in front.

At this time, there was a loud "bang". Guan Ruoruo's mind enveloped one of the stone gates. With a slight urging of soul art, the light of the forbidden spell dimmed rapidly, and the stone gate turned into debris and exploded.

A dazzling light came into view, and Ye Chunyang narrowed his eyes slightly, and then he could see clearly what was behind the stone gate.

Countless spirit stones ranging from low to high levels were piled up in the stone room. At a glance, there were probably no less than a million.

Even though Gu Qian was calm, she couldn't help showing a trace of shock when she saw so many spirit stones being placed here casually.

Then, she pointed with two fingers, and Qingchen turned into a flying sword and flew towards a stone door.

It was more straightforward than Guan Ruoruo's soul technique. With a slash of Gu Qian's sword technique, the stone door turned into ashes on the spot, and the scene inside was also revealed.

One stone cabinet after another stood in the stone room, and many scrolls of exercises were placed inside. The four people immediately walked towards this secret room together.

But after scanning those scrolls, they quickly lost interest.

It's not that these secret manuals of exercises are low-level, but among the group, Gu Qian is the successor of the head of Kunlun Ruins, with ice-attributed spiritual roots, practicing the supreme secret book, and Guan Ruoruo is a soul cultivator. Most of the exercises here are spiritual power spells, which she can't use at all.

Not to mention Ye Chunyang, who has accumulated thousands of years in the human world, what kind of exercises does he want?

He even mastered several high-level secret techniques, but he needed to restore to the Nascent Soul stage or even the God Transformation stage before he could use them. The master of this cave was only at the Golden Core stage, so how could the techniques he collected be worthy of his attention?

In comparison, the spiritual stones in the previous secret room were more practical.

Immediately, several people gave up collecting the techniques and divided up the spiritual stones in the next secret room.

There were several secret rooms left, which were then opened one by one. Two of them were empty for unknown reasons. The other two stored some magic tools and secret symbols, and the rest were elixirs and materials for refining treasures.

Ye Chunyang was not interested in the others, but he collected some materials for refining treasures, which might be useful in the future.

While collecting the treasure house of magic tools and secret symbols, several people suddenly saw a circular slot, which faintly emitted some ghost aura. Ye Chunyang sensed it for a moment and found that this aura was exactly the same as the soul-catching bead, and immediately understood it.

"It seems that this is where the Soul-Snatching Orb was once stored, but how did the Nether Soul Beast take it out?" Guan Ruoruo said.

Although she had never seen the Soul-Snatching Orb, she could sense that it was a magic weapon for soul cultivation. After seeing the abnormality of this slot, she couldn't help but show her doubts.

This secret room was closed before, and it was just opened by them. I really can't figure out how the Nether Soul Beast got the Soul-Snatching Orb here and broke through the seal of Tianxuan Mountain to escape?

"No one knows the specific situation. When I received the news, the Nether Soul Beast had already fled to the North Region. If it weren't for the fact that the sect collected some ancient books about Tianxuan Mountain, I would not have known that the Soul-Snatching Orb was originally stored in this cave." Gu Qian shook his head.

Hearing this, Guan Ruoruo felt even more confused, but she didn't investigate further.

Anyway, it happened several years ago, so there was no point in asking more.

Moreover, from what Gu Qian said, it seemed that the Soul-Snatching Orb was in Ye Chunyang's hands at this time, so Guan Ruoruo didn't intend to ask any more questions.

Ye Chunyang felt a little strange.

Judging from the corpse and the treasures stored in these secret rooms, the owner of this cave was obviously not a soul cultivator, so why did he have a soul treasure like the Soul-Snatching Orb?

However, this thought only flashed through his mind. After collecting all the useful things, the group walked out of the secret room.

"This harvest was effortless. Sister Gu, do you know if there are other caves in Tianxuan Mountain that are as easy to explore as this one?" Guan Ruoruo got a lot of treasures, and her face was full of joy.

Such a harvest should not come too easily, and it was much easier than she imagined.

"I know this cave because I tracked down the Nether Soul Beast back then. As for the others, how could they be so easily known." Gu Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head.

After all, Tianxuan Mountain is the holy land of the demon race. It is not easy for her to get the clues of this cave. More secret information may only be mastered by the demon race.

Guan Ruoruo was a little disappointed, but she didn't get too entangled.

Anyway, she has gained a lot this time. Even if there is no other opportunity next time, it is not a wasted trip.

After Gu Qian finished speaking, she frowned and said, "This is just the outer periphery of Tianxuan Mountain. The real high-level demon beast caves and treasures are all in the deep mountains. We will be more and more dangerous in the future. Don't be careless."

Guan Ruoruo nodded solemnly after hearing this.

"Let's go. It seems that there is nothing valuable here. Let's leave here first." Ye Chunyang said.

In fact, there are not many things in this cave that he can see except the demon pill. Naturally, he has no attachment to it. Instead of wasting time here, it is better to enter the inner mountain as soon as possible to help King Nanxuan recover his true body, so as to find the soul of the Vermillion Bird and lift the God-killing Curse as soon as possible.

Under such a sense of urgency, how can Ye Chunyang have the heart to stay here?

The three women naturally obeyed his words and left the cave.

When they came in, they encountered many magic arrays, which were easily broken by Gu Qian with the spirit-absorbing stone, saving a lot of time to get out.

When he came to the outside of the cave, Ye Chunyang looked at the distant mountains again, his eyes were somewhat deep.

"There are countless ancient monsters in the mountains, almost all of them are above level 2. It would be best if we don't alarm them. If we are really unlucky and are targeted by those ancient monsters, we must not entangle them, so as not to attract more high-level monsters."

Gu Qian reminded the two.

"Don't worry, sister Gu, we will act carefully." Guan Ruoruo nodded.

Ye Chunyang didn't say anything. After communicating with King Nanxuan, he immediately drove the escape light and flew towards the mountains.

Gu Qian and Guan Ruoruo did not hesitate and followed immediately.

...

Not long after Ye Chunyang and his companions left, several black mists suddenly appeared outside the cave, and then with a few "puff" sounds, they turned into two half-human, half-snake monsters.

The two half-snake monsters stopped for a moment at the place where the people had stopped. One of the monsters whispered, "There are humans coming into Tianxuan Mountain. They just came out of this cave. The demon pill is probably on them."

The other monster nodded silently.

"I will follow them. You go back and report to Senior Golden Snake King. The appearance of human cultivators here means that they have unlocked the seal of Tianxuan Mountain. I think Senior Golden Snake King will be very happy to hear this news." The monster laughed.

"Then you must follow them closely. You know how important the demon pill is to Senior Golden Snake King." Another demon cultivator hesitated and solemnly warned.

"Don't worry, this demon pill can greatly increase Senior Golden Snake King's cultivation. How could I let them take it away easily?" The demon sneered: "Go and tell Senior the news quickly. Maybe Senior would be more willing to do it himself."

"That's natural. Tianxuan Mountain has been sealed for tens of thousands of years. Many demon cultivators are trapped here, and many have even been extinct. Now that the human race has come here, it will be our opportunity to leave Tianxuan Mountain. How could Senior Golden Snake King miss this opportunity?"

"That's why we didn't alert the enemy just now. After all, there are some information that needs to be questioned from them."

"..."

The two demons talked secretly.

The other demon cultivator said no more, nodded, and immediately turned into a demon wind and disappeared.

After the demon finished speaking, his figure also flashed and disappeared without a trace, as if he had never appeared.

At the same time, Ye Chunyang, who had flown not far away, suddenly stopped.
