Free Web NovelChapter 1104: Chapter 494: Is This the Truth? (Part 3)
A young Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator from a remote, small sect frowned and said after thinking for a moment, "We still need to use this as a clue to search for areas with abnormal spiritual energy in this ’Endless Mountain Range’. Perhaps we might just find the entrance to the secret realm."
Everyone nodded after hearing this, feeling that although this method involved some element of luck, it was still a viable strategy.
"This ’Endless Mountain Range’ is vast and boundless. Even if we know to use spiritual energy disturbances as a clue, searching within such a large area is no easy task."
Liu Changsheng slightly shook his head and added with a serious expression, "Moreover, with forces from all sides gathering and searching for the secret realm, conflicts are bound to arise."
Liu Changsheng paused for a moment and continued, "From what I know, besides us cultivators, some major sects have also sent elite disciples to secretly lurk within this mountain range."
"The number of cultivators involved is not just hundreds, but thousands!"
At this point, even a master like Liu Changsheng couldn’t help but sigh.
The "Celestial Ruins Secret Realm" is a chance to defy heavens and change fate!
Anyone who knows about this opportunity wants to come and take a gamble!
As they say, how many times can one have a chance to take a big leap in life? If not now, then when?
When the opportunity comes, hesitating will never lead to success!
As for dying in the "Celestial Ruins Secret Realm"?
Everyone here is a cultivator defying the heavens. Life and death may be terrifying, but in the face of the Dao, what do they count for?
"I guess, since ’Celestial Ruins Secret Realm’ is so mysterious, its location might be related to certain special terrains within the mountain range."
Li Yunjing, with a profound gaze, looked towards the distant mountain range and slowly spoke, "For instance, those valleys that are shrouded in clouds and mist all year round or places where rich spiritual energy gathers at spirit veins."
Upon hearing Li Yunjing’s analysis, everyone’s eyes lit up, feeling it made a lot of sense.
While everyone was expressing their views, a sudden exclamation came from within the crowd: "Wait! I think I have a clue!" freewebnovel.cσ๓
Following the voice, everyone saw a cultivator in a brown linen robe excitedly waving an ancient compass in his hand.
His name was Zhao Yan, a loose cultivator with some research into the art of feng shui and geomancy.
"Everyone, this compass is passed down from my ancestors and is extremely sensitive to spiritual energy fluctuations."
Zhao Yan quickly walked to the front of everyone, pointing to the constantly spinning pointer on the compass, and said excitedly, "Just now, after hearing everyone’s discussion, I tried to activate the compass, and found that it actually responded!"
"The direction pointed by the needle is very likely the place of the spiritual energy disturbance, and perhaps the entrance to the ’Celestial Ruins Secret Realm’ is hidden there!"
Upon hearing this, everyone became excited and gathered around, their eyes filled with anticipation as they looked at the compass needle.
"Ah! How could I forget!"
Seeing the compass, Li Yunjing slapped his forehead, remembering his own "Profound Celestial Compass"!
That is a Tier Four treasure!
For days, with so many things going on, he hadn’t refined this treasure since obtaining it, which was really a waste.
If he were to use the "Profound Celestial Compass" in conjunction with his "Shenxiao Divine Forging Celestial Secret Technique", wouldn’t his computational ability greatly multiply?
With his own cultivation and his studies, he might not be weaker than the person before him!
Li Yunjing was proficient in five major vice positions, having cultivated them to nearly their limits, yet this wasn’t his limit either. In the aspect of "Celestial Secret Technique", Li Yunjing also possessed high proficiency.
Although not systematic, he had practiced to a level not weaker than that of ordinary "Celestial Masters".
However, using the "Celestial Secret Technique" to divine the secrets of heaven wastes lifespan and has considerable side effects. Since Li Yunjing had enough strength in other areas to handle nearly all problems, he had long since neglected the use of the "Celestial Secret Technique". Only upon encountering trouble, when he couldn’t find the "Celestial Ruins Secret Realm", did he think of it again.
And this thought came up because he saw someone else’s actions, which reminded him. freёwebnovel.com
Otherwise, Li Yunjing still had no intention of using the "Celestial Secret Technique".
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, are you sure the direction indicated by this compass is reliable?"
At this moment, Liu Changsheng, the backbone of the group, looked at the compass with a grave expression and asked.
Everyone else also looked towards Zhao Yan. This matter was not to be taken lightly, for if they found the wrong place, it would be a waste of time, and they might even encounter dangers that would unnecessarily reduce their numbers.
"Senior Liu, my compass has always been effective and won’t be wrong."
Zhao Yan pounded his chest with certainty: "Besides, with such a strong reaction from the needle, it must be that the spiritual energy waves there are extremely abnormal, and it might indeed be related to the ’Celestial Ruins Secret Realm’!"
"Either way, this is the most valuable clue we have at the moment, so we might as well take a look."
After thinking for a moment, Li Yunjing said, "But everyone should prepare to face any potential dangers."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Thus, led by Zhao Yan, everyone packed their gear, left the camp, and headed in the direction pointed to by the compass.
On the way, everyone was cautious, staying alert to the surroundings at all times.
In the "Endless Mountain Range", danger lurks everywhere. One careless moment could lead to peril.
A group of dozens advanced through the mountains swiftly, and before long, the terrain ahead became increasingly steep, with mountain peaks soaring into the clouds, and valleys deep and unfathomable.
"Buzzing..."
The compass needle in Zhao Yan’s hand spun more vigorously as he shouted excitedly, "Quick, we’re almost there! There must be something up ahead!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was invigorated and quickened their pace.
After crossing several large mountains and circumventing many demon beast territories, they finally arrived at a valley, where an abundance of spiritual energy rushed at them, making everyone feel refreshed.
"The spiritual energy here is unbelievably dense! But there’s no strong spirit vein here!"
A Golden Core Realm cultivator’s eyes emitted two beams of golden light as he probed the terrain, exclaiming in surprise.
