Cultivating Immortality in the Winter Wasteland.

Chapter 776 Secret Place
Chen Wang entered the mountain range and carefully explored it using the Earth Escape technique from the Five Elements Great Escape.

He spent several days searching every inch of the land, but found nothing wrong.

However, Chen Wang found that when he approached the spiritual vein, the rumbling sound was very clear.

However, this sound doesn't appear often, so Chen Wang can't determine whether it's within the spiritual vein.

After several days of investigation, Chen Wangcai basically made a judgment.

"There might be something surprising hidden within this fifth-order spiritual vein."

Chen Wang then chose to enter this fifth-order spiritual vein.

Once inside, the dense spiritual energy prevented Chen Wang's divine sense from probing very far.

He carefully observed his surroundings while meticulously exploring the area ahead, venturing deeper and deeper.

The mine was very dark, and the area in front of him was pitch black. Chen Wang felt a little uneasy, as if something was watching him from the darkness.

Upon realizing this, Chen Wang couldn't help but smile.
"Now that I've reached the half-step Integration stage, and have even ventured into the Demon Realm and wiped out the entire Demon Race, why would I worry about any ghosts lurking in the darkness?"

Chen Wang found his own reaction somewhat amusing.

Having roamed the cultivation world for many years, he felt somewhat apprehensive upon entering a mineral vein.

However, as they continued deeper, the smile on Chen Wang's face gradually disappeared, and a look of worry appeared between his brows; that feeling of unease was quite clear.

Moreover, Chen Wang felt a chill on the back of his neck, as if someone was constantly blowing cold air on it.

But when he looked closely, he found nothing there.

Chen Wang was somewhat surprised.

"What's going on? At my level, with my spirit and body united, and ready to break through to the Integration Stage at any moment, my divine senses are extremely sharp. I shouldn't have this kind of illusion, unless..."

Chen Wang's eyes lit up at this thought.
"There must be something strange here affecting me."

Chen Wang took out the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow.

He has been refining the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow in his sea of ​​consciousness. The higher his affinity with the bow, the stronger its power becomes.

Chen Wang was cautious and vigilant at this moment, ready to draw his bow and shoot at any time.

He exhaled and continued forward.

Having traveled an unknown distance within the mine, Chen Wang felt the spiritual energy becoming even more concentrated.

Even though such powerful spiritual energy was only at the fifth level, it could not be absorbed directly.

Chen Wang frowned slightly. He could no longer use his divine sense to explore this place. However, as he continued to delve deeper, he held his breath and was somewhat moved when he reached the depths of this fifth-order spiritual vein.

Deep within this fifth-order spiritual vein, there was actually a crystal coffin.

The crystal coffin was exquisitely crafted, and a woman could be vaguely seen inside.

Chen Wang was immediately startled and couldn't help but hold his breath.
"What's going on?"

Chen Wang cautiously stepped forward, and upon seeing the woman's face in the crystal coffin, he couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart.
This woman is so beautiful.

But then Chen Wang suddenly frowned.
"The Evil Sect of Heaven and Earth has been here for many years, has it been without hearing this rumbling sound?"

Without much thought, Chen Wang remembered killing that evil lord, but he also knew that the man's methods were extraordinary. If he had encountered him before he began cultivating the Wuji Dao-proving technique, he would have been killed in a dozen or so moves.

Once such a person hears such a roaring sound, wouldn't they try their best to investigate?

We'll risk a few more lives to pave the way for you.

Chen Wang's brows furrowed more and more as he thought about it.

"Am I the only one who heard this roaring sound?"

In retrospect, Chen Wang felt that he had overlooked this point.

He was simply cultivating in the mountains on his own and did not bring Feng Lin and the others over. He also did not take the people in the sect seriously and did not inquire about them at all. Therefore, it is hard to say whether anyone else heard the booming sound.

Chen Wang felt a slight urge to back down, but he quickly suppressed it.
"Now that I'm here, there's no reason not to take a look."

Chen Wang sensed the bronze door in his sea of ​​consciousness and found that it could be pushed open, meaning that Chen Wang could leave this place at any time.

After the bronze door regained that aura, its use became very convenient.

Chen Wang was able to come and go freely in front of Ji Cang of the Great Flame Heaven because of the divine power of the Bronze Gate.

After inspecting the crystal coffin, Chen Wang decided to open it.

But when his hand touched the crystal coffin, it suddenly passed right through it. Chen Wang was immediately surprised and exclaimed, "This is virtual!"

This crystal coffin was like a holographic projection of the Mingzhou world; Chen Wang's hand could easily pass through it without touching the actual object.

After a careful examination, Chen Wang discovered that the crystal coffin was not actually there; it was merely a projection.

"what on earth is it?"

Chen Wang was about to continue deeper into the cave, but after thinking for a moment, he turned back. He carefully observed his surroundings and discovered that there was a small hole below, from which a faint beam of light shone.

It seems the source of the projection is at the bottom of the small hole.

"I'm used to using my divine sense to investigate many things. Now that I don't have my divine sense, I have to rely on my eyes to judge things, and I've really made some mistakes," Chen Wang thought to himself.

Normally, Chen Wang could see everything clearly with a sweep of his divine sense, which made him somewhat dependent on it.

Now, judging by his own judgment, especially since the abundant spiritual energy here had affected Chen Wang's perception, he hadn't noticed this small hole before.

With a thought, Chen Wang transformed into a streak of light and passed through the small hole.

This is just like an ordinary mechanism; it's not a top-tier formation at all.

After passing through the small hole, Chen Wang appeared in a stone chamber.

Strangely enough, there was no spiritual energy in this stone chamber.

It is known that the spiritual energy here is extremely rich. If this small hole were an ordinary hole, the abundant spiritual energy would surely seep in and fill this stone chamber.

The current situation is that the small cave looks ordinary, but the stone chamber has no spiritual energy; it's just like an ordinary, dilapidated house.

Chen Wang looked closely and saw that there was a platform in the stone chamber. The platform was no more than two feet high and was built in the shape of an octagon.

At the center of the platform was a bright pearl. If you looked closely inside the pearl, you could see the shape of a crystal coffin. It was this ray of light that had been projected onto the spiritual vein through the small hole.

"Strange, this place looks like it's set up in a normal feng shui arrangement. Although this Bagua platform is a bit peculiar, it's just the way of feng shui. It's too strange."

Chen Wang was completely baffled.

If they were cultivators in the cultivation world, they would have no reason not to make use of a fifth-order spiritual vein they discovered.

But if they are ordinary people, why would they have such a special pearl?
Chen Wang was somewhat confused.

He picked up the pearl and examined it. Indeed, there were no remaining formations in the entire stone chamber that couldn't be detected by divine sense, only some feng shui considerations. From the pearl, one could see the crystal coffin, and inside the crystal coffin, one could see a young girl. The technique was simply ingenious.

Suddenly, Chen Wang sensed that the pearl possessed a special power, and a cool sensation emanated from it, making him feel extremely comfortable.

Chen Wang examined the pearl but found nothing wrong with it.

This pearl possesses a special power that isolates it from all perception.

Chen Wang then put the pearl in his sleeve, pushed open the door of the stone chamber, and entered another stone chamber.

Below is a complex of buildings with many rooms, each containing different items.

Chen Wang looked closely and found that some of the stone chambers contained burial objects and weapons, but these weapons were just ordinary swords, spears, and halberds.

Chen Wang also found some gold and silver treasures, as well as some murals inside.

Chen Wang looked at the murals, his expression turning somewhat strange.

The people above are dressed in somewhat ancient clothing, and they are engaged in a chaotic battle, wielding long spears. The main character is a prince, whose armor is different from the others.

Chen Wang's expression grew increasingly strange as he looked at it.

He found some more burial objects in the stone chamber, painstakingly deciphered them, and the conclusion he reached surprised him greatly.

"This is the tomb of the ancient ruler of the Yan Kingdom." Chen Wang was somewhat taken aback.

This is indeed just the tomb of an ordinary mortal king.

Yan was also a small country. Chen Wang did not find any powerful cultivators in these records. At most, there were some alchemists who could summon wind and rain and refine elixirs. However, these alchemists were usually disliked and considered to be a scourge to the court.

"This is a very ancient small country, and the magic of cultivating immortality is considered trivial to them."

However, this king was a firm believer in the principles of feng shui.

They found a rare treasure from outer space in a sinkhole on the border of the country. It was a bright pearl containing a crystal coffin and a young girl, whom the king found astonishing.

He placed the pearl in the palace, but unknowingly became increasingly obsessed with the girl in the coffin. In the end, he unknowingly fell in love with the girl in the coffin, talking to himself every day. Eventually, he lost his mind and the court became in disarray.

Fortunately, the crown prince was brave and, after ascending the throne, he showed great respect for his father.

Otherwise, this king's fate would likely have been extremely tragic.

The crown prince invited the feng shui master, whom his father had trusted most during his lifetime, to build a mausoleum for his father.

This feng shui master was also quite extraordinary. He searched for the dragon vein and finally found this Tianshui Mountain, where he buried the king of Yan.

After sorting through this information, Chen Wang couldn't help but be moved.
"This feng shui master is really skilled. Today, I stumbled upon a fifth-order spiritual vein. A fifth-order spiritual vein is a very high-level existence in any world, capable of establishing a powerful force. This feng shui master actually managed to find such a spiritual vein."

Immediately, a smile couldn't help but appear on Chen Wang's lips.
"It would be a waste to bury a mortal king next to a fifth-order spiritual vein."

Chen Wang shook his head.

It seems that the mausoleum of the Yan Kingdom ruler would not pose any threat to him. At that time, there were probably no cultivators in the entire Yan Kingdom, at most one Qi Refining stage cultivator.

Chen Wang was also somewhat surprised that a feng shui master from the mortal world could find such a place.

Chen Wang explored the mausoleum area but found nothing wrong.

Just then, he heard that roaring sound again, this time very clearly, right next to Chen Wang's ear.

Chen Wang was startled. He had been holding the pearl in his hand the whole time, but the voice did not come from the pearl.

Chen Wang's gaze was incredibly sharp at this moment, as if he could see through the darkness. He muttered to himself, "Could this place be related to the Great Flame Heaven?"

Just then, he felt the hairs on his body stand on end, as if he were being watched by something terrifying.

Chen Wang suddenly turned around and looked.

He then noticed a tall figure appearing behind him.

The man didn't speak, and Chen Wang couldn't see his face clearly at all, but he could vaguely tell that he was a human.

At this moment, the two were only three steps apart. This person's sudden appearance gave Chen Wang an immense sense of pressure.
Chen Wang asked in a deep voice, "Who is it?"

The blurry figure did not answer Chen Wang's question, but stared coldly at Chen Wang, giving Chen Wang a chilling feeling that the figure could see right through him.

The two remained motionless in this position, Chen Wang silently watching him.

He sensed that the bronze door could be opened, which meant he could leave this world at any time.

With this guarantee, Chen Wang felt relieved.

This also means that I can still have one more wild night.

The bronze door opens extremely quickly, allowing you to return in an instant.

But he wasn't worried about the dark figure. At this moment, Chen Wang's mind raced, and he calmly said, "You wouldn't happen to be from the Great Yan Heaven as well, would you?"

When Chen Wang uttered the words "Great Flame Heaven," the figure suddenly twisted violently, and Chen Wang sensed a complex emotion in the previously empty gaze.

"It can't be such a coincidence, can it? He really is related to the Great Flame Heaven."

Chen Wang's heart stirred, and he then said, "I know Ji Cang, and I know the Insect God. How shall I address you?"

Upon hearing the two names, the tall figure suddenly unleashed a powerful aura, causing Chen Wang to feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

His magical powers seemed frozen, and his heart felt as if it were being squeezed.
The figure appeared in front of Chen Wang in an instant.

At that moment, Chen Wang saw it; he saw a blurry human face on his face.

This is the face of a young man, whose appearance can be described as gentle, kind, and harmless.

But the venomous look in his eyes made Chen Wang feel a little scared.

"die!"

As the figure finished speaking, Chen Wang felt as if a special Dao was enveloping him, invading his inner world and even his sea of ​​consciousness.

In an instant, Chen Wang felt his life being constantly stripped away, and his breathing became rapid, like a drowning fish.

Faced with such terrifying power, Chen Wang had no doubts and immediately chose to push open the bronze door.

The next moment, Chen Wang appeared in the passage to another world, but he was still a step too late.

As soon as the young man finished speaking, Chen Wang felt as if he had been invaded by a special Dao.

Even after Chen Wang left the Dao Ning world, the feeling of death still lingered around him.

Chen Wang's vision blurred.

His heart skipped a beat:
"Oh no, this time it seems like we've hit a really big hole."
