Chapter 1161: [863] Collecting Treasures (Second Update, Asking for Monthly Passes)
“Boom——”
A commotion ca from the distance.
The guards of the Wei Family abruptly stopped their movents.
Wei Donglai, however, had a look of coldness in his eyes: “The other party is not far away. We will find them soon. Stick to the plan we made before; let’s set up the formation together. We have more people, and that’s our advantage!”
“Yes, Young Master Donglai.”
Quickly, under the lead of Wei Donglai, a group of people arrived in front of the gate.
“Indeed, the real entrance is right here.” The guards of the Wei Family were imdiately thrilled.
However, Wei Donglai’s face looked sowhat ugly.
The level of this formation was not weak, yet it was broken by soone just like that.
It must have been the sa person who placed the Fireburst Formation at the entrance earlier!
“You, truly deserve to die!”
…
“These seem to be human bones?”
Not wasting any more effort at Blood Dragon Pool, the woman in the black dress followed Pei Jinye quickly, and soon, they saw a wall filled with Bone Spikes.
The scale of these Bone Spikes indicated that probably more than a hundred people had died here.
She then looked towards Pei Jinye.
Without saying a word.
But she was also thinking about Pei Jinye’s identity in her mind.
This guy clearly hadn’t activated a Spirit Seed…
Yet his movent technique was comparable to hers… able to utilize space to move.
Such a skill, she had never known of a third person possessing.
The little old man who had taught her the arts of cultivation counted as one.
And Pei Jinye, unwilling to speak, seed to have so unspeakable secret… If it weren’t for the gravity of the inheritance, she would definitely have pressed for answers.
Pei Jinye stretched out his hand and took out the Black Yan Token.
Almost instantaneously.
The Bone Spikes on this mountainside began to vibrate.
A layer of black mist spread out.
The woman in the black dress was startled, thinking this guy was up to so more mischief.
But unexpectedly, Pei Jinye pressed down without any hesitation.
Suddenly, the Black Nightmare was being continuously absorbed into the token.
Pei Jinye’s palm was engulfed by the Black Nightmare, beginning to spread along his entire arm…
Enduring that bone-piercing pain.
He gathered power in his hands.
He shouted in a low voice: “Open!”
As his voice fell, the Bone Spikes retracted back into the wall.
The woman in the black dress’s expression changed slightly.
She saw the large wall, where the furiously surging black mist swiftly ford into a huge circle.
As the giant circle divided into smaller circles.
The woman’s breathing gradually beca heavier: “What is this?”
She looked ecstatically at the light spheres that appeared on the wall.
Each light sphere contained sothing.
She could not help but imdiately take action, forcibly breaking open these light spheres… dozens of Ancient Pills erged.
Then, more than ten seeds of varying sizes broke through the light and appeared.
It was only when an artifact, emanating ferocity—the Red Ling Ribbon—appeared, that the woman took it into her hands.
Pei Jinye’s eyelids twitched as he watched.
[This woman!]
But suddenly, he hesitated.
This woman only took the Red Ling Ribbon, seemingly uninterested in even glancing at the rest.
Pei Jinye looked at her with suspicion, and reaching out his hand, he took these Ancient Pills into his possession. Seeing the woman in the black dress not voicing any objections, his actions sped up.
Although he did not know the effects of these Ancient Pills, in Pei Jinye’s hands, he had the ability to reverse-engineer them, and perhaps he could use this opportunity to deduce the corresponding Dan Fang.
As for those seeds…
Most of them were dead seeds, and the Spiritual Energy contained in the few alive ones was minuscule, which greatly frustrated Pei Jinye.
No wonder that woman didn’t bother to give them a second look.
He glanced over.
The woman in the black dress had a smile that was not quite a smile, then promptly collected herself and urged: “Hurry up, on to the next challenge.”
Not seeing True Ice Tower ant they had not yet reached the true Inheritance Land.
It was just unknown how many more challenges set up by Nine Ice Ascendant there were in the periphery.
Pei Jinye ford Seals with both hands.
The Black Yan Token hovered on the wall.
Emitting a faint glow.
It struck the mountain wall.
Suddenly, the entire mountain wall emitted a glow.
Violently caving inward.
Amidst the rumbling sounds, a bone spurs passage unexpectedly appeared.
Each of these spiral bone spurs emanated a faint glow, standing at the top and around the sides of the passage.
“Avoid the white bone spurs and follow behind ,” the black-dressed woman commanded, a rare occurrence of her taking the lead.
Pei Jinye did not play coy.
He knew his strength was insufficient.
He willingly followed behind the woman.
Moving swiftly along the way.
The solemn expression on the black-dressed woman’s face finally eased sowhat.
“These bone spurs have been tempered into poison weapons, what a pity… otherwise, taking them away could have led to the forging of divine armants.”
“Poison weapons?” Pei Jinye inquired, looking intrigued.
The black-dressed woman explained as they walked: “The spurs have been tempered with poison. This toxin can easily kill a Cultivator at the Cloud Sky Level, not to ntion you… I advise you not to covet them. It’s very likely these bone spurs have injured intruders as well…”
Pei Jinye did not retort.
The bone spurs were both new and old.
Clearly, they were not from the sa batch.
But he couldn’t help feeling skeptical… The Nine Ice Ascendant was said to be an upstanding figure, so how could such lethal poisons be left in the Inheritance Land?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart,
noisy sounds ca from behind them.
The black-dressed woman’s face turned grim in an instant: “The speed at which this bunch has arrived is unreasonably fast.”
She had intended to go back and eliminate all of them.
However, she was stopped by Pei Jinye.
“We can’t afford to waste ti, there might be others outside trying to figure out how to get in.”
Hearing him say this, the severity on the black-dressed woman’s face faded slightly as she led Pei Jinye to a fork in the path, stopping to look back.
“Now… which way should we go?”
Pei Jinye pointed towards the entrance on the left: “This way.”
The black-dressed woman did not question further.
Soon, the two arrived at a basin area.
Surrounded by bizarrely shaped rocks.
However, among these strange rocks was an ancient stone building.
The stone tower seed extrely large, even this space over five ters high was just a part of it, its full height impossible to determine.
But the doorway was pitifully small.
For soone of Pei Jinye’s stature, it would be a tight squeeze to pass side by side.
“Is this the True Ice Tower?”
Pei Jinye hesitated.
The black-dressed woman hesitated too.
This stone building appeared to have no connection with the True Ice Tower.
She was prepared to go in and take a look.
Yet, cautious of past lessons, she stopped and urged, “Check if there’s any Formation?”
As she spoke, Pei Jinye was already surveying the area.
It wasn’t for the woman’s sake.
rely out of concern for his own life.
He stepped closer to the stone tower, looking up.
It might have been an illusion.
He always felt the stone tower resembled a dormant fierce beast.
The closer he got,
the stronger his illusion that the stone tower was emitting a layer of faint light… but when he focused, he found nothing.
“Could it be without a Formation?”
After examining the area and finding no sign of others having been there, he wondered.
“What’s the situation?” the black-dressed woman asked.
“Strange,” Pei Jinye said with a grave look.
The black-dressed woman agreed, “From the bone spurs passage to here, it’s just a few minutes’ walk. This large stone tower placed here, it’s impossible that no one has discovered it…”
There were corpses left in the bone spurs passage, indicating that people had indeed passed through.
This also ant that the stone tower was highly problematic.
“Any traces of a Formation?” the black-dressed woman inquired again.
Her concern was solely the presence of a Formation.
The Formations of Nine Ice Ascendant were myriad and unpredictable… A single misstep, and even she could be trapped.
“The absence of Formation traces is exactly what seems peculiar,” Pei Jinye replied while flipping his hand, sending a streak of Sword Light into the stone tower, which elicited no reaction.
Upon seeing this, the black-dressed woman imdiately said, “Let’s go inside and see.”
Pei Jinye nodded thoughtfully,
on guard and ready to flee at any mont.
But just then, Wei Donglai arrived with his n, feeling a surge of excitent.
“Excellent, we’ve finally caught up with you!”
