Harvests Within the Cave
Qin Qiongyi couldn't help but say, "Yes, although these strange beasts don't devour the Heaven and Earth Power, they seem to know that the Heaven and Earth Power is a treasure. Seeing the treasure disappear, they will definitely become suspicious. You guys were careless in this matter..."
Kun Changkong awkwardly touched his nose. "This is my fault. I just hope that these strange beasts will retreat on their own when they can't find us."
Qian Wujiang said, "The intelligence of the strange beasts is not low. Even if they retreat, they may still summon more of their kind."
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes and said, "Since that's the case, then we won't let them leave."
Lin Yi stomped his foot once more, and the ' Qian Heaven ' void opened up by Qian Wujiang was instantly taken over by him. The Qiankun Power spread, netting the more than ten strange beasts that had gathered within hundreds of meters around into the void.
Before Kun Changkong and the others could make a move, a vast Qiankun Power pressed down, instantly crushing more than ten Toad Louse Exotic Beast into powder.
The ruthless and decisive scene surprised everyone.
Lin Yi's mastery of the 'Qiankun' Real Domain is not like that of someone who has just broken through.
Among them, the most shocked was Qian Wujiang, but Lin Yi had just taken away the Qian Heaven Void that he controlled, which left him completely stunned.
Although the ancient books of the Qian Family record that the 'Qiankun' Domain has a strong suppressive force on the Eight Laws of Qiankun, and even on various tangible Domain.
But suppression is suppression, and what about the power of his Domain that instantly took control of him?
So, if the Qian Family attacks Lin Yi again using the name "Qian Heaven," wouldn't that be like a son beating his mother, a situation that's impossible to resolve?
That's terrifying!
Perhaps the family's attitude towards ' Qin Jian ' will have to change in the future. If ' Qin Jian ' is completely angered, the Qian Family will definitely be in big trouble in the future.
Qian Wujiang planned to write another letter to his family after he came out of the Black Abyss Cave, explaining the key points.
After all, Qin Jian is no longer a weakling. He controls the Qiankun Domain, which can suppress the Eight Laws of Qiankun. Even if the Ancestor were to intervene, he would probably be helpless against him.
After all, although their Qian Family Old Ancestor also controlled ' Qian Heaven ', he did not reach the Nine Realms with 'Qian Kun'.
After Lin Yi instantly killed more than a dozen strange beasts, he ignored everyone's shock and said, "I'll keep this Heaven and Earth Power for now, and we'll distribute it after it's released."
They all nodded, and no one had any objections.
Afterwards, the group continued their journey deeper into the Black Abyss Cave.
Along the way, precious Spirit Plant occasionally sprouted from the rock walls, but after the lesson they had just learned, no one asked to retrieve the treasures anymore.
Anyway, these treasures can be harvested at any time after exploring the Black Abyss Cave.
And so, the group rapidly descended... five thousand meters below the Black Abyss Cave... six thousand meters below the Black Abyss Cave... ten thousand meters below the Black Abyss Cave...
The cave grew deeper and deeper, with no end in sight.
Furthermore, as one goes deeper, the temperature at the bottom of the cave drops lower and lower. This cold is not just physical, but a chilling cold that touches the soul, as if there is something extremely terrifying deep inside the cave.
At this moment, Lin Yi suddenly asked, "Did the ancestors who were the first to discover the Ancient Secret Realm not explore the Profound Wind Treasure Valley?"
Among the crowd, Qian Wujiang spoke up, "There were such records, but they are long gone."
"That's all? What's the reason?"
"Several upheavals occurred in the Ancient Domain, and some records were left behind during these upheavals."
Lin Yi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
The Ancient Domain has existed for hundreds of thousands of years. Apart from the earliest internal strife and danger caused by the Dragon Phoenix demons, there have indeed been many upheavals. These upheavals were basically related to the struggles between martial arts families. Some of the Eight Great Qiankun Families were wiped out in the upheavals and were later gradually swallowed up by other families, disappearing completely from the Ancient Domain.
Ten thousand meters below the Black Abyss Cave, Lin Yi, who was leading everyone down at high speed, suddenly stopped here. He saw a smooth rock wall stained with bloodstains.
Judging from the bloodstains, they were blown up from below by a powerful gust of Profound Wind.
The bloodstains may have been left by Jin Hong and the other two, suggesting that they were attacked in this very place.
Lin Yi warned, "Everyone be careful, there are traces of battle on the nearby rock walls!"
"We understand..."
Qian Wujiang and the others became wary.
Lin Yi descended several hundred meters further, and seemed to see something, his brow furrowing.
A blood-red skeleton, its flesh and blood completely devoured, was embedded in the rock wall, with a broken wooden staff inserted into its chest.
Qian Wujiang frowned. "Could this corpse be... the Yan Mu Sheng?"
Qin Qiongyi asked, "How can you determine that?"
"This person was originally Rogue Cultivators Martial Saint from the Ancient Domain. He had no family support, but he accidentally obtained the inheritance of a certain Eight-Realm Martial Saint predecessor. His cultivation level soared all the way. He always carries a precious Yan Mu Staff in his hand and is quite famous in the Ancient Secret Realm realm."
Lin Yi examined the broken wooden staff that was deeply embedded in the rock wall, and found that it matched the broken end of the wooden staff he had once picked up.
However, unlike his other wooden staff, this broken staff has a clear black handprint on it.
Judging from the gruesome death of Yan Mu Sheng, Lin Yi speculated that he was approached by some kind of humanoid enemy, who then forcibly broke his precious wooden staff.
At that moment, a section of a Profound Wind staff flew out and accidentally landed in his hand, while the other section became the weapon that completely killed Yan Mu Sheng.
What kind of enemy is this? It can break the treasure with its bare body!
Lin Yi frowned deeply.
It should be noted that although the Yan Mu Staff is a treasure made of a special kind of top-grade Spirit Wood, not forged from spiritual metal, its material is definitely harder than most Spiritual Treasure.
Even with Lin Yi's current physical strength, it would still take some effort to break the Yan Mu Staff.
Moreover, as Eight-Realm Ancestor, Yan Mu Sheng wields a magical treasure. Once the 'Wood' Realm Real Domain is unleashed, his explosive power and life-saving methods are definitely not lacking.
The enemy who could get close to him and instantly kill him was most likely at the ninth level of the realm.
At this moment, Zhao Wudi, who hadn't spoken a word, also analyzed something from the corpses and the surrounding battle traces, and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, there may be a strange beast in this Black Abyss Cave that is comparable to the Honored Envoy's Monster creature!"
"Comparable to Honored Envoy Monster, that's not the strength of a Ninth Realm cultivator!"
"With just us, can we go any deeper?"
"We must go, even if we don't see the real enemy. If we turn back without even seeing the true enemy, how will we explain ourselves to the Ancestral Saint?"
Lin Yi spoke, taking out the Purplecloud Thunder Pearl: "Continue to descend, and follow my commands at any time."
Seeing Lin Yi take out Demigod Artifact, the group's confidence increased considerably.
Having mastered the 'Heaven and Earth' Domain and possessing Demigod Artifact, Deputy Prefect Qin should be comparable to someone at the Ninth Realm!
However, before leaving, Lin Yi suddenly remembered that the half of the Yan Mu Staff he had picked up earlier still contained the True Qi of the Yan Mu Sheng.
