Chapter 251 Ancient Cave

Seeing the cave under the main peak, everyone was immediately overjoyed and quickly flew towards Ye Chunyang with their weapons.

"I never thought that Taoist fellow Taoist could find the Ancient Demon Cave by one person. Such Taoist methods are beyond our reach."

Xia Houzhi was overjoyed and did not hesitate to praise Ye Chunyang.

"Fellow Taoist, I'm very grateful. I'm just a little lucky."

Ye Chunyang calmly took back the floating pearl and dropped it towards the entrance of the cave first.

The crowd also rushed away.

Standing at the edge of the cave entrance, Ye Chunyang looked down, feeling secretly shocked.

This cave is so vast and deep that you can't see the bottom at a glance. It was actually built underground, making it appear extremely dark.

Xia Houzhi couldn't wait any longer. He looked at Ye Chunyang, showing an imperceptible smile, and then rushed into the cave before others could take action.

Ye Chunyang and others did not hesitate when they saw this, and after looking at each other, they followed suit.

The air inside the cave is cool and cool, with stalactites dripping from time to time, but the space is not large. There is only one passage extending to the ground, which is divided into upper and lower floors.

However, although this passage extends underground, it is surrounded by aura stones, which allows everyone to see clearly.

After sensing that there was indeed no restriction here, everyone walked into the first floor without hesitation.

There are three stone rooms here. After exploring each one, everyone found some ancient books and jade slips, some magic scrolls, or some spiritual stone crystals. Although the number was not large, they were all high-level items.

Ye Chunyang glanced around, and there was a strange color in his eyes.

At this time, the old man surnamed Wang looked at him and Xia Houzhi and said: "Before we leave, I have something to say. Fellow Daoist Xu can choose three treasures in the cave first. As the person who found the cave, Fellow Daoist Ye can also choose one after Fellow Daoist Xu. I don't know. Are fellow Taoists choosing treasures here?”

Xia Houzhi scanned the three stone rooms and then shook his head: "This seems to be just the daily living place of the old man Tianmo. I would like to take a look at the lower level before talking."

Then he turned to Ye Chunyang and asked, "I wonder what Ye Daoyou thinks?"

"I also want to take a look at the lower level." Ye Chunyang shrugged.

Although there are treasures here, how can a person like Old Man Tianmo store a real secret treasure in a place where he lives every day? And if the two of them choose the treasure here first, they will not have such priority when they get to the lower level. Yes, with Ye Chunyang's shrewdness, he would naturally not do such a stupid thing.

However, Xia Houzhi's eyes flashed after hearing what he said, and he suddenly said something to him. Ye Chunyang was slightly startled after hearing this, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and then he stood calmly.

It seemed that they had expected such an answer from the two of them, and the old man surnamed Wang was not surprised. He immediately said: "Since the two Taoist friends are not willing to choose treasures here, according to the rules, we will divide the treasures equally. What do you think?"

"I think so too."

"My husband and I have no objections."

Zhuge Yu and the Chen couple said one after another.

After receiving a unanimous response from everyone, the old man named Wang stopped talking. He and Xia Houzhi took out the treasures from several stone rooms and placed them flat on the stone platform in the middle.

Zhuge Yu had no objection to this. Although Xia Houzhi and the old man named Wang were responsible for obtaining the treasure, their every move was under their surveillance, and they were not worried that the other party would try to monopolize it.

Only Ye Chunyang stood quietly in the stone room, his expression flickering slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

After a short time, the two gathered all the treasures on this level.

After counting, there were actually a lot of high-quality spiritual stones. If divided equally, each person could get tens of thousands. The remaining magical weapons, elixirs, and spells were divided equally. Xia Houzhi looked down upon the magical treasures here and only took them. Tens of thousands of spirit stones and a bottle of elixir were then divided among everyone.

Ye Chunyang owns two and a half spiritual weapons, as well as mysterious ancient treasures such as the Floating and Sinking Pearl. Ordinary magical weapons no longer have much appeal to him. However, after dividing tens of thousands of spiritual stones, he took two more jade slips. .

When Xia Houzhi and the old man named Wang were counting the treasures just now, he had already checked that these two jade slips contained two supreme spells.

In fact, after possessing the two magical powers of Three Thousand Sword Yuan and Yin Ghost Formation, Ye Chunyang no longer had much interest in ordinary magic.

However, the two supreme spells are "Phantom Escape" and "Wind and Thunder Curse".

The former is a body technique, which has a slight advantage in speed, and the latter is a technique to trigger a wind and thunder offensive. This spell may only be effective when cast with spiritual power, but if it is combined with a magic weapon of the same attribute, the power will be greatly increased.

Not long ago, Ye Chunyang got a semi-spiritual weapon "Thunder Wind Cone" from the hands of Master Xiaoshan, which complemented this spell perfectly.

"Fellow Daoist Ye has a sharp vision. After getting the Thunder Wind Cone, he also has the bonus of the Wind and Thunder Spell. I'm afraid I won't be your opponent in a fight."

Seeing Ye Chunyang take away the wind and thunder spell, the old man surnamed Wang stroked his gray beard and joked, but there was a hint of temptation in his words.

"Fellow Daoist Wang is not bad either. If my guess is correct, what you are taking should be the legendary 'Guiyuan Lock'. This object is a prestigious magic treasure in the magic world. If you hold this object, your strength will definitely increase greatly. Ye Chunyang said with a flash of eyes.

"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Ye was so knowledgeable that he actually recognized this treasure. However, although this 'Guiyuan Lock' is famous, it is only a top-quality magical weapon. How can it be compared to Fellow Daoist's magical weapon? I can only get it for myself. It’s just addiction.”

The old man surnamed Wang laughed, but inadvertently tightened the "Guiyuan Lock" three points while speaking. Obviously, this treasure was not as useless as he said.

Ye Chunyang smiled but did not answer.

Since he couldn't get any useful information from him, the old man surnamed Wang was so sensible that he didn't say much.

Next, Zhuge Yu and Chen's couple each chose magic weapons and elixirs that suited their own skills or spiritual roots.

Not long after, a pile of treasures was divided up.

"Okay, now that you have divided all the treasures equally, we will immediately enter the lower level, hoping that we can find something satisfactory there."

Xia Houzhi looked at everyone, said something, and then walked down the stone staircase on the second floor first.

Everyone was already itching for the treasure on the lower floor, so Xiahou didn't need to say anything, and they all walked towards the stone staircase.

Ye Chunyang looked slightly hesitant, but he showed no emotion and followed the crowd silently.

However, just as he was about to enter the stone staircase, he suddenly stopped and looked back at something left on the stone platform with a look of surprise on his face.

Frowning, he turned back to the stone platform and picked up the object.

This is a blood-red insect egg with no spiritual energy fluctuations on it. It is inconspicuous at first glance, so when everyone divides the treasure, they completely look down on it.

But after careful perception, Ye Chunyang felt an unusual aura from it.

After pondering for a moment, he collected the eggs.

Although this aura was vague and uncertain, he vaguely felt that there was something fishy in it, so he might as well take it back and cultivate it with ancient spiritual cultivation methods.

He acted quickly, and Xia Houzhi and others did not notice anything unusual. When they got off the stone stairs, an empty stone cave appeared in front of them.

This place is not divided into several stone chambers like the upper level. Instead, there is only one solitary training platform. In front of it is a crystal white cauldron, which emits a faint cold light. At a glance, you can tell that the material is extraordinary and it is a unique tool for making alchemy. The best tripod.

But there seems to be a weird slot on the surface of the tripod. I don’t know what it does.

Ye Chunyang looked at the cauldron, his eyes lit up, and then he became a little sad.

He recognized it at a glance. The cauldron was made of the same material as the cold iron alchemy furnace that Xuanyang gave him unintentionally. However, the alchemy furnace was later lost after the demon took away its main body.

The tripod in front of him was obviously of a much higher grade than the one Xuanyang gave him back then.

Looking at this tripod, Ye Chunyang recalled the past and felt sad in his heart.

What surprised him was that the cauldron actually contained a piece of dark brown ore the size of a fist. The whole body had a cold metallic texture, and it was clearly the essence of black iron.

After crossing the cold iron cauldron, one could see another futon placed on the training platform, and two exquisite brocade bags on the left and right sides. Apart from this, there was nothing else in the cave.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.

They originally thought that such a secret place would contain many important treasures, but they didn't expect it to be in such a desolate state. However, they were all as shrewd as ghosts, and they all immediately spotted the two tips on the training platform.

What is strange is that these two tips seem to be ordinary, but they cannot be detected with spiritual consciousness, and there is nothing else here, so they probably have some secrets.

Xia Houzhi's pupils shrank slightly, and before anyone could take action, he stretched out his body and walked towards the training platform. Then he opened his hands wide and grabbed the two kits respectively.

But at this moment, there was a sudden "choking" sound, and then there was a flash of white light, and a silver giant sword several feet wide descended from the top of the cave, and suddenly struck Xiahou Zhi.

If he fails to cast the spell in such a ferocious and fierce manner, he may not be able to escape the fate of his body being dismembered.

"court death!"

Under the agitation of the sword energy, Xiahou Zhi's hair flew like a madman. Only Zhuge Yu could deliver such a sword force.

Just as he was about to take the kit into his hands, he was blocked by Zhuge Yu's sword. How could Xia Houzhi not be angry? However, the opponent was at the same level as him. He did not dare to despise the sword, so he hurriedly turned around and made a gesture.

There was a soft sound of "dang", and the fire suddenly started in the cave, and the bright rainbow light shot out like a tide. The surroundings of the cave were suddenly riddled with holes and gravel splashed.

When everyone saw it clearly, it turned out that there was an iron umbrella in Xia Houzhi's hand. The whole body was made of black steel. It was densely covered with demonic energy and surrounded by flames. It was a powerful fire-attributed magic weapon.

As the umbrella opened and retracted, Zhuge Yu's flying sword was knocked back into its scabbard, adding to its fierce power.

"Fellow Taoist Zhuge, we have made an agreement before leaving. After entering the cave, I will first pick up three treasures. In this regard, Taoist friend also swore a demonic oath. Do you want to break the oath?"

Xia Houzhi's eyes showed a fierce light, which was so gloomy that it made one's heart palpitate.

"What Fellow Daoist Xu said is true. We did promise to Fellow Daoist to take three treasures after entering the Ancient Heavenly Demon Cave. However, there are only two kits and one Black Iron Essence here. If Fellow Daoist takes all these three items, Am I just a spectator?"

Zhuge Yu patted the hilt of his sword and looked disapproving.

Xia Houzhi's face darkened.

After staring coldly at Zhuge Yu for a moment, he suddenly looked at Ye Chunyang, showing a bit of a sly smile, and said: "Fellow Daoist Ye, don't you want the essence of black iron? This treasure is right in front of you, but it seems that Friend Zhuge doesn't I don’t want you to get it successfully.”

Ye Chunyang's face flashed with cold light, but he didn't answer.

After Xia Houzhi chuckled twice, he said to the old man surnamed Wang: "Fellow Daoist Wang, I know that you practice the 'Chong Yuan Bao Jue', and you must dissipate your spiritual power before you can practice it. However, it is extremely dangerous during the dispersion period. I have something here." This 'Spirit-shaping Pill' can keep you safe and sound when you are discharging your power. As long as you agree to let yourself collect the treasure here and join me to kill Zhuge Yu, I will give you this pill with both hands."
