“A full six thousand points of battle merit. If we hadn’t known, like at this moment, that this is a trap set by the demon dragon Ao Yan and the Blood Ancestor after more than a hundred years of conspiracy.”
“I’m afraid we would have taken on this bounty by now.”
Looking at this bounty on the battle merit book, Dongfang Yuejian felt a bit scared just thinking about it.
For the dragon slayers, besides helping them obtain the qualification to go to Wandao Lake to slay dragons, the battle merit can also be used to exchange for the treasures obtained within the Burial Immortal Ruins.
For example, the box of spiritual marrow crystals that Dongfang Yuejian and the others just found. If they want to bring it out of the Burial Immortal Ruins, they will have to exchange it with a large amount of battle merit.
So the battle merit is basically equivalent to the natural treasures and earthly treasures.
Not only Dongfang Yuejian, but Xu Taiping also felt a bit scared.
Because once they entered the game without any preparation, the four of them would not only have to face the Blood Cultivator Yuan Lingzi who had been dormant and cultivating for hundreds of years, but also the Blood Ancestor behind him, and the demon dragon Ao Yan who had the divine power to peek into the future.
Even Gu Yu, the dragon catcher who was the guide, had his Dao heart destroyed by Yuan Lingzi.
In such a situation, not to mention winning, I’m afraid it would be very difficult to leave alive.
The key is that even if they resisted the urge to not enter the game of the demon dragon Ao Yan, next they would still have to face the Blood Ancestor whose combat power had recovered by seventy to eighty percent, and the demon dragon Ao Yan who had the power to spy on the future.
Dongfang Yuejian suddenly asked Xu Taiping with some worry and confirmed:
“Brother Taiping, can you confirm the authenticity of that dragon-sealing letter?”
Xu Taiping, who was lowering his head and thinking, raised his head after hearing this and looked at Dongfang Yuejian seriously and said:
“There is at least a sixty percent certainty.”
The great deduction power of Lotus Pupil is only deducing the possible trend of time, not the real future.
Dongfang Yuejian nodded and said:
“Sixty percent certainty is not low.”
Dongfang Yuejian, who had some understanding of the deduction power, felt that sixty percent certainty was not low.
What’s more, the reward notice just issued by the merit book directly corroborated Xu Taiping’s deduction.
Xu Taiping suddenly reminded Dongfang Yuejian at this time:
“Miss Dongfang, it’s best that only you and I know for now. The more people who know, the greater the variables will be.”
Dongfang Yuejian nodded heavily and said:
“I understand!”
She looked at Xuanzhi who was correcting Gu Yu’s guidance method, and then immediately added:
“Master Xuanzhi is not a nosy person either. He shouldn’t ask too many questions.”
Xu Taiping nodded slightly, then looked at the roll of animal skin in his hand, and then murmured:
“Next, we have to discuss the countermeasure to go to Yushu Tun.”
Dongfang Yuejian nodded and said:
“Although the blood demon cultivators are very difficult to deal with, the human race has fought against them for so many years and left many countermeasures. I will look for them later.”
In Dongfang Yuejian’s divine soul, there are various classics collected by the Dongfang family over the past few thousand years.
Among them, there are no shortage of secret volumes related to blood demon cultivators.
Xu Taiping’s face lit up with joy and said:
“That’s very good.”
Just then, not far away, Xuegu Cao Sixi suddenly shouted at Dongfang Yuejian and Xu Taiping:
“You two immortals, this little person really can’t remember which cave is the last treasure cave of Yuanlingzi.”
When saying this, the tone of Xuegu Cao Sixi was full of guilt.
When Xu Taiping heard this, he looked at Dongfang Yuejian with some doubts.
Dongfang Yuejian first asked Cao Sixi to wait in place, and then explained to Xu Taiping:
“Brother Taiping, just now Cao Sixi told me that Yuan Lingzi has two treasure hiding places in this cave.”
Dongfang Yuejian pointed to the spiritual marrow crystals in the wooden box beside her, and then continued:
“This box of spiritual marrow crystals was found by us from one of his treasure hiding caves.”
“However, we have searched for a long time for the second treasure hiding cave, but we haven’t found it yet.”
Xu Taiping looked up at the deep caves in the depths of the cave, and then nodded and said:
“If we can’t find it, then forget it. It’s still very dangerous to rush into those unknown caves rashly.”
Dongfang Yuejian nodded and said:
“I think so too.”
She looked at the box of spiritual marrow crystals on the ground, and then smiled and said:
“Just this box of spiritual marrow crystals is already a worthwhile trip for us.”
Xu Taiping has also heard of spiritual marrow crystals. They are more precious than gold essence stones.
Especially in the chaotic land outside the sky, a spiritual marrow crystal is enough to support a cultivator to survive in the void with thin spiritual power for one or two years.
One can imagine what a huge fortune this box of spiritual marrow crystals that Xu Taiping and the others have will be if it is placed in the upper realm.
After confirming with Xu Taiping, Dongfang Yuejian immediately turned around and said to Xuegu Cao Sixi:
”Since we can’t find it, then let’s not look for it anymore.”
Upon hearing this, Cao Sixi instead said with a somewhat regretful tone:
”I heard that Yuanlingzi showed off to me and said that the second treasure vault is his real collection.”
Dongfang Yuejian smiled and said:
”No matter how precious the things hidden in it are, it’s in vain if we can’t find them.”
And while the two were talking, Xu Taiping, who was reaching out to pick up a spiritual marrow stone from the box and check it, suddenly thought of something, and the hand rubbing the spiritual marrow stone suddenly stopped.
Immediately, he raised his head and asked Dongfang Yuejian:
”Yuejian, were all these things placed by that Yuanlingzi himself?”
Dongfang Yuejian nodded and said:
”Cao Sixi said that Yuanlingzi never let him touch these treasures.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping immediately raised the corners of his mouth and said:
”I may know how to find the second hidden treasure cave.”
Dongfang Yuejian was first stunned, and then happily said:
”What method?”
Xu Taiping didn’t answer immediately, but took out that roll of animal skin paper and then gently wiped it on his right eye.
Immediately, Dongfang Yuejian saw that in the right eye pupil of Xu Taiping, a purple halo suddenly lit up.
Seeing this scene, Dongfang Yuejian immediately said in surprise:
“Brother Taiping, you plan to use your True Intent to search for that hidden treasure cave?”
Xu Taiping nodded and said:
“I have cultivated a True Intent called ‘Inseparable Bond’, which can see the invisible silk thread between two items with a connection.”
Immediately afterwards, it could be seen that Xu Taiping was holding the animal skin paper in one hand and a spiritual marrow stone in the other, walking towards the direction where Bloodbone Cao Sixi was located.
As he walked, he said:
“This animal skin paper and the spiritual marrow stone on the ground. Since both have been handled by Yuan Lingzi, among the several silk threads pointed to by both, there must be one that is the second hidden treasure location.”
Dongfang Yuejian, who was originally a bit confused, after hearing Xu Taiping’s explanation, immediately said with a look of realization:
“I understand!”
As she spoke, it could be seen that she excitedly quickened her pace and followed up.
And at this moment, Xu Taiping had already quickly walked to the side of Bloodbone Cao Sixi. Also at this time, the silk threads in his eyes connected to the spiritual marrow stone and the animal skin paper in his hands suddenly, only two were left.
After continuing to penetrate hundreds of zhang into the passage, Xu Taiping finally saw the cave connected to one of the silk threads.
Xu Taiping pointed to that cave and then asked:
“The spiritual marrow stone just now was found from that cave, right?”
Dongfang Yuejian beside immediately nodded heavily and said:
“That’s right, it’s that cave.”
