Chapter 700 Night Exploration

"Fourth Junior Brother, you take Junior Brother Ye around the cave and let him get familiar with the environment first. Second Junior Brother, Third Junior Brother, you are responsible for arranging accommodation for Junior Brother Ye."

After the introduction, the eldest senior brother Xu Shengqi immediately instructed Peng Xu and the other three.

At this time, Ming Rong had already left. Naturally, he was the most senior among the crowd. The three of them had no objection. Peng Xu and Dong Yan left after receiving the order. The fourth senior brother Dong Rui came up with a curious look on his face.

"It's really strange. Although our master's conditions for accepting disciples are not as harsh as those of Uncle Su Qin, he never accepts people with four spiritual roots. Moreover, Junior Brother's face is unfamiliar, so he must be an outsider. How did the master take a fancy to you? Is there something special about you?"

Dong Rui's pair of black eyes moved up and down, constantly looking at Ye Chunyang.

Ye Chunyang frowned but said nothing. He clasped his fists and smiled, saying, "Fourth Senior Brother, you are joking. Chunyang is not outstanding. It's just luck that Master took me back to his sect."

"Junior Brother, you don't have to be modest. With Master's temperament, if you don't have anything attractive about you, he will never accept you as his disciple. But since you are unwilling to say more, I, as your senior brother, naturally don't ask too much. But if you are favored in the future, don't forget to say a few good words for you."

Dong Rui laughed, looking smooth.

Ye Chunyang smiled bitterly and said nothing.

This senior brother was very familiar with the place. After a playful greeting, he immediately waved to Ye Chunyang and said, "Brother Ye, come with me. There are many forbidden methods in the master's cave. I need to introduce them to you one by one, so that you don't accidentally trigger them when you are alone in the future. That would be bad."

"Then I'll trouble you, senior brother." Ye Chunyang smiled lightly and followed him without paying attention.

The fourth senior brother grinned, waved to Ye Chunyang, and took him to stroll in the cave.

For most of the day, this person turned east and west, and each time he walked a section of the road, he had a different step, just like walking on a cliff when going up the mountain. Ye Chunyang followed behind him and listened to his eloquent explanation, and he had more guesses about Mingrong's method of setting up the formation.

There are probably no less than hundreds of formations in this cave, and if you are not careful, you may accidentally enter the forbidden system.

Ye Chunyang was already surprised by the barrier in the Xingxuan Bamboo Forest before, and the formation here was obviously much more sophisticated, although it was also created by Mingrong.

Of course, there were not only defensive restrictions in the cave, but also many other types, and even some mirage-like illusion formations, which made Ye Chunyang benefit a lot after seeing them, and felt that hiding his identity and practicing under Mingrong seemed to be a good decision.

Mingrong's cave was also unusually large, with hundreds of palaces and attics alone, and the decorations were extremely luxurious and magnificent. There were carved dragons and painted buildings everywhere, and the gold, pearls, and jade scriptures room, treasure warehouse, and pill pavilion were also available.

"Most of the things in the warehouse here are the treasures of Master for most of his life, and they were open to us in the past, but we must ask Master for permission before entering each time. If Master is in seclusion, we will go to find Senior Brother."

Dong Rui explained to Ye Chunyang as he walked.

Ye Chunyang nodded silently.

In fact, with his cultivation level, he would not be interested in Mingrong's collection. Even if he was really interested, he would go to the Nine Peaks of Feixianmen, where the foundation of this ancient sect lies.

However, since he is now using the identity of Mingrong's disciple as a cover, in order to avoid suspicion from the other party, some superficial efforts must be made.

"Fourth Senior Brother, I saw many disciples walking around in the mansion along the way, but they didn't seem to be disciples of Master. What's going on?"

After walking around for most of the time, Ye Chunyang had a general understanding of Mingrong's cave mansion, and many restrictions were also seen at a glance. The only thing that puzzled him was that although there were many people in the cave mansion, most of them were menial disciples, which made him confused.

"Ah, I forgot to tell my junior brother about this."

The fourth senior brother Dong Rui slapped his forehead with sudden realization when he heard Ye Chunyang's question.

"Although Master Mingrong is not as eccentric as Uncle Suqin, he has never accepted disciples. Moreover, Master's lineage mainly cultivates magic arrays. The most taboo in cultivating immortals is impurities. Most people only focus on Qigong, and then practice some alchemy and talisman making techniques. Magic arrays are time-consuming and labor-intensive, and most people are not willing to spend time on them, so there are only four of us on weekdays.

"Yes, now there is also you, Junior Brother Ye." At the end of the words, Dong Rui added.

"I see." Ye Chunyang nodded slightly.

"That's right."

While talking, Dong Rui looked at Ye Chunyang with a strange look on his face and said, "That's why I'm wondering, with Master's previous strictness, why would he choose you as our junior brother? Could it be that you are a disciple that Master has long favored in the secular world, so he brought you back? "

Ye Chunyang rolled his eyes secretly. This nominal senior brother had a rich imagination. Even if he really wanted to become Mingrong's disciple, he had to be able to bear it.

Just as he was sneering, the fourth senior brother came up to him mysteriously before he could speak, and said with a smile: "Or is there some secret relationship between junior brother and master that makes him take special care of you?"

"That's not right. The four of us have followed master for many years, and we have never heard that he has any direct relatives in the mortal world. Then what is your relationship with him?"

"This is really strange! Hey, junior brother, why did you leave? Senior brother, I haven't finished talking yet..."

Dong Rui was mumbling something, and when he looked up, he didn't see Ye Chunyang. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and hurriedly chased after him, saying: "Junior brother, wait for me, I haven't taken you to your room yet, you don't know where you are!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother. Senior Brother has just informed me about the accommodation. I will go back on my own."

This Senior Brother's skill in talking really gave Ye Chunyang a headache. After replying from a distance, his figure flashed and quickly disappeared around the corner.

...

The accommodation arranged by Xu Shengqi for Ye Chunyang was not big, but it had everything he needed, which made him slightly satisfied.

After returning to the room, he released his spiritual sense to sense the surroundings. After confirming that there was no one around, he closed the door and meditated silently.

Previously, he had the idea of ​​setting up an isolation array in his residence, but he finally suppressed it. At present, he has not yet determined whether Ming Rong has ulterior motives. Maybe the other party is secretly observing him at this moment.

Although he is not afraid of the other party, this trip is to explore the Arctic Ice Pond, and Ye Chunyang does not want to cause trouble.

"Boy, now that you have entered Feixianmen, what are you going to do?" Guanglingzi's voice came in his mind, "The Arctic Ice Pool is well guarded. If you act rashly, I'm afraid it will alert the Jindan cultivators. At that time, you will not be able to form a Jindan, but will be charged with stealing secrets."

"Junior will naturally not act rashly." Ye Chunyang tapped his fingers lightly, and after thinking for a while, he said: "But since we are here, we can't just waste our time. No matter what, we must find a way to sneak into the ice pool to find out the truth."

"It seems that you have a plan?" Guanglingzi asked with a chuckle.

Based on his understanding of Ye Chunyang, the other party must have something in mind since he said so.

"Of course there is a plan, but we still need to wait for some time, and Mingrong asked me to find him in ten days. I want to see what he is thinking?"

Ye Chunyang's eyes flashed sharp.

Recalling Mingrong's previous weirdness, he always felt that this person had ulterior motives. Ye Chunyang didn't want to fall into the trap set by others. If the other party has no ill intentions, it's fine. If he has ill intentions, don't blame him for being cruel.

Guanglingzi smiled faintly and stopped asking questions.

In the following time, Ye Chunyang temporarily settled down. On the surface, he was a true disciple of Mingrong, but secretly he was looking through the classics in the Sutra Library to find clues about the Arctic Ice Pool, to see if he could quietly enter it without alerting others to condense the golden elixir.

What disappointed him was that after searching for a few days, there was no record of this ice pool in Mingrong's Sutra Library, which made him want to go to Jiufeng to check it out. But thinking that it would inevitably arouse suspicion if he went to Jiufeng to look for classics not long after entering the sect, he temporarily put this idea aside.

Speaking of which, in addition to the occasional visit of the eldest brother Xu Shengqi in the past few days, the fourth brother Dong Rui seemed to be quite interested in him and often came here to find him to make tea.

Ye Chunyang knew that although this person was a little gossipy, he had no ill intentions, so he did not take any action against him, but just played Tai Chi with him in a roundabout way. As a result, the fourth senior brother was naturally very depressed, and the number of times he came gradually decreased.

Seven or eight days passed in a blink of an eye, and seeing that the ten-day deadline set by Ming Rong was getting closer and closer, Ye Chunyang sat alone in the room that night, and then placed several formation flags of different colors along each corner. After a moment, he waved his hand, and a flash of spiritual light flashed, and all these formation flags disappeared.

At the same time, a faint spiritual wave rose in the room, which could not be detected without careful perception.

This was naturally the isolation restriction set by Ye Chunyang.

After doing this, he sat quietly on the bed, closed his eyes and slapped his forehead. A powerful spiritual wave spread in the room, and then an illusory figure appeared in front of Ye Chunyang.

It was his Yuanshen.

After driving the Yuanshen out of the body, Ye Chunyang did not hesitate, and turned into an invisible light wave to sweep out of the courtyard, flying all the way along the lonely peak.

"The nine peaks of Feixianmen are headed by Qingtian Peak, which has the richest treasures. The place that is most likely to record the Arctic Ice Pool should be there!" Ye Chunyang stopped and looked at the nine towering peaks. After a moment, he seemed to be sure of something, and his eyes flashed down.

The nine peaks are different from the seven-star arrangement of Tianqimen. Qingtian Peak, as the main peak, stands between the eight peaks, like a straight giant sword. There are heavy iron chains around it connecting other peaks. Each iron chain is only connected to an iron chain bridge that can accommodate one person. There is a fierce strong wind in the middle. Unless you are above the mana stage, you can't break into this place at the foundation building stage.

Ye Chunyang's illusory soul is like a ghost at night. It stops silently at the iron chain bridge outside Qingtian Peak. After watching for a while, his figure flashed, and he quickly passed through the strong wind and ran straight to a hall standing in the peak as if he was in an unmanned place.

The so-called strong wind restriction is like a decoration for him, and it has no effect at all.
