Mo Zi Chen sighed, "It's hard to put into words." She told Ji You Fei about all the things that had happened that day. Ji You Fei was shocked and said, "Su Xiong and Lian Dao You have also arrived, and Jing Tan Zong actually dared to openly confront them. Their ambitions are not small indeed! Has the leader of Jing Tan Zong made an appearance?"

  Mo Zi Chen said: "I haven't seen it before, who is the leader of Jing Tan Sect?"

  Ji Youfei said: "The Jingtan Sect was also a major sect of Kunwu in the past, but it gradually declined and there hasn't been a Yuan Ying cultivator appearing for a long time. Until hundreds of years ago, there was a cultivator with the Daoist name Lingqizong, who was truly a stunning talent, known as the number one innate talent in the sect's thousand-year history. He achieved Golden Dan in just 450 years, but unfortunately, he failed to break through to Yuan Ying 60 years ago and was destroyed by heavenly lightning, his body and spirit annihilated. Later, his junior fellow disciple Baishan took over as the sect leader, who has a pair of long white eyebrows that are very recognizable."

  Mo Zi Chen shook his head and said, "Only those two people came to deal with us."

  Ji Youfei sank into thought and said, "There are eight Golden Elixir cultivators in the Jingtan Sect, all of whom are elders except for the sect leader. Now it seems that they are not really out, but rather hiding in the mountains, definitely to do something big."

  Mo Zi Chen said: "If it's like this, won't that demon path also be in cahoots with them?"

  Ji Youfei said, "This shouldn't be it. I think that demonic path is just a coincidence, being used by them as a decoy to attract some low-level disciples to come and find the so-called truth, in order to cover up. In this way, no one will discover the suspicious clues here."

  Mo Zi Chen pouted and said, "The more you try to cover up, the more obvious it becomes. Any conspiracy, no matter how well hidden, will always leave behind some clues."

  She hadn't thought that if she hadn't discovered the secret of the ancient tomb entrance, their plan would have succeeded. Even if Su Huan and others came, they would only catch that demon, and wouldn't suspect Jingtan Sect at all. But who would have thought that a freak like Mo Zichen would appear?

  "Then what do you think they are plotting?"

  Ji You shook his head and said, "I don't know, but this used to be the lair of ancient demons. What they did must be related to this place. This spiritual vein was once refined by the ancient demon cultivators, it must hold a great secret. I think it should be here."

  Mo Zi Chen spread his hands: "Your words are useless. Moreover, we can't escape now. That guy from Jing Tan Zong said that this place has been sealed by a large array and can only enter but not exit. Even if you want to send a message, there's no way."

  Ji Youfei was indeed carefree, with no worried expression on his face: "After all, we are also from famous families and sects. With the status of Jingtan Sect, they dare to openly oppose us, it's clear that their ambitions are not small. However, since the formation can cover the entire mountain, there's no reason we can't be found. Unless their formation has a place that cannot be covered."

  "Right, at the beginning, I vaguely heard him mention that this place is some kind of secret realm, maybe that's why," she scratched her head, "But how did we end up stumbling in here?"

  She suddenly remembered that she still had the yellow paper in her hand, and just as she was about to throw it away, she found that it seemed to be stuck to her hand and couldn't shake it off. Ji Youfei asked: "What's this?"

  Mo Zi Chen said: "This is the ghost face I saw on the stone wall of that big cave, huh? Why does it seem to be glowing?"

  Ji Youfei said: "You silently operate this school's heart method, spiritual thoughts revolve, try it out!"

  Mo Zi Chen muttered the incantation, as if using his divine thoughts to control the magic tool. The yellow paper on top suddenly burst into a brilliant light and was no longer stuck in his hand. Mo Zi Chen exclaimed in surprise: "How is it like Zhang Ling Fu?"

  Ji Youfei said, "You brought this to paint with, originally it was a thing from Yu Wei's school of talismans, something that senses the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It's not strange that it became a talisman due to some mistake or confusion. This talisman might just indicate our path forward."

  "Whether it's a way out or a dead end, let's get out of this haunted place first. I'm already getting dizzy from the smell after just a short while. What are these things?"

  Ji Youfei shook his head: "I haven't seen it before, but these are all spirit insects, maybe they're a strange species left behind by the ancient demon cultivators." He took the spirit talisman from Mo Zichen's hand, held it with both hands, and silently operated the divine intention technique. His cultivation was much higher than Mo Zichen's, and the spirit talisman floated up on its own, indicating the way forward. Then the two of them followed along.

  It's strange to say, the light of this talisman is everywhere, and those insects actually all avoided it on their own, fortunately not letting Mo Zichen step on any insects. However, the cave was narrow, and they could only walk with their waists bent.

  The tunnels here are as dense as a spider web, if not for the guidance of the spiritual symbols, they would have been lost in the belly of the mountain long ago. It's really unknown whether these tunnels were naturally formed or excavated by humans later on.

  Mo Zi Chen only felt dizzy and disoriented, having long forgotten the direction they came from, and simply followed along. The two of them wandered back and forth in the tunnel, with Ji You Fei saying: "Do you see? On this stone wall, it seems like there used to be paintings before, but they've all peeled off."

  Mo Zi Chen told him about the things he had seen before, saying: "This should be a building with an extremely long history, but unfortunately, all traces have disappeared. I think it's at least tens of thousands of years old?"

  Ji Youfei sighed, "I've never heard that this was once a sect's cave dwelling. Now it seems that its history is even more ancient than the ancient battlefield of demonic cultivation!"

  The two of them walked and talked, and after a while, Ji Youfei suddenly said: "What's going on? There is no road ahead!"

  Mo Zi Chen looked up and saw that the cave had reached the front, and it was actually a dead end. She used force to knock on the stone wall, issuing a dull echo, and it seemed that there was something behind her.

  "How could this be?"

  Ji Youfei grabbed the talisman, and the light of the spirit talisman suddenly became much brighter, shining so brightly that they could hardly open their eyes. Moreover, it kept floating towards the other end of the stone wall, as if there was some kind of power on the opposite side calling to it.

  At this time, behind them, countless spiritual insects surged in like a tide, only to be deterred by the glow of the spiritual symbol, and did not pounce on them. However, billions of spiritual insects gathered together, enough to submerge them all.

  Mo Zi Chen said: "Maybe it's some kind of illusion technique, we need to think of a way to break through!"

  Ji Youfei gritted his teeth and said: "I have a plan, maybe we can give it a try!"

  "What time is it now? Hurry up!"
