Madam, please ascend.

Chapter 210: The Former Famous Family
The strange filaments were glowing faintly. Zhuque bent down to examine them carefully, making sure that it was not a magic weapon that he, who was only at the Divine Transformation Realm, could break.

She asked curiously, "Why did they set up a trap? Did they sense we were coming?"

Yun Yi denied it, "Judging from the bloodstains, they must have encountered some trouble and had to use these filaments to block the jade figurines' attack. Furthermore, they were quite panicked when they left. Otherwise, they wouldn't have set up traps along their retreat route."

"You're right. After all, we still have to leave after taking the treasure. If the situation gets urgent, these traps might end up hurting us."

Zhuque looked at the dense and tangled silk threads in front of him and said with a headache: "The question is, how should we get through?"

Yun Yi said, "It's not difficult. I just need to cut them all off with my sword energy. However, I need to be careful in my movements to prevent someone's divine consciousness from being left on them and attracting their attention."

He immediately took action after he said that, summoning the Green Lotus Sword Intent, which moved freely among the tangled silk threads, as if there was no obstruction.

The person who set up the mechanism should be Ghost Face. Yun Yi guided the sword intent and moved forward slowly, avoiding the suspicious parts of the thin thread. After some exploration, he finally found the key point.

That should be the vital point of the filament mechanism. As soon as the tip of the sword touched it, all the taut filaments immediately became limp and fell to the ground.

Yun Yi was still worried and checked again to make sure they were no longer lethal. Then he said to Zhuque, "Let's move on."

"Yeah." Zhuque followed Yun Yi tacitly. The two of them climbed up the stairs. When they finally walked out of the misty jade-white stone steps, the view in front of them suddenly became clear.

Those pavilions, towers and the throne room are where the real treasures of Paradise are hidden.

As a cave built with all the efforts of the Hehuan Sect, its many buildings each have their own functions, and the treasures hidden in them can completely restore the glory of the Hehuan Sect in the world of cultivation.

However, this place has been established for thousands of years. After years of erosion, most of the treasures are on the verge of collapse, and now they are just for show.

Once touched, it will turn into ashes in an instant.

Yun Yi knew about this matter in advance, so he took his time and let the people from Tiancan Sect explore this place first.

Zhuque was a man who had seen the world. He had been to the Feitian Secret Realm with Yun Yi, but he was still quite amazed when he saw the scene before him.

The major sects in the Demon Sect have always been full of evil spirits, and the Sword Burial Valley is the biggest outlier among them.

But in any case, it has nothing to do with the scenery of immortals.

I didn't expect that the Hehuan Sect would look like this during its heyday. Anyone who saw it at first glance would think that this must be a righteous sect.

Yun Yi seemed to see through Zhuque's thoughts and said, "It only looks bright and beautiful, but it's actually a bunch of dirt inside."

"I know. I just look at this place with appreciation."

Zhuque suddenly frowned because she noticed some unusual movements in the open square in front of her, and those figures did not seem to be from the Tiancan Sect.

Instead, he dressed up as a disciple of the Hehuan Sect and moved freely like a real person.

"There are still people alive?!"

Yun Yi explained, "It's the jade figurines. The deeper you go into this place, the thicker the smoke of joy becomes. Therefore, the jade figurines appear alive in our eyes, as if the Hehuan Sect had never been destroyed."

Suzaku was surprised and asked, "Then what should we do? Just pretend they don't exist?"

"No, those jade figurines are like the disciples who actually guard Paradise. They will attack us when they see us, so we must avoid them."

As Yun Yi spoke, he pointed into the distance, "Look, there are traces of fighting over there. Shadow must have suffered a loss here."

There were numerous jade figurines, and once transformed into human form with the Joyful Smoke, each one possessed a cultivation level of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. While ants can kill an elephant, the Tiancan Sect's shadows lacked many means of recovery. Furthermore, any casualties would cause the Joyful Smoke to invade their internal organs, rendering the hallucinations even more terrifying.

Yun Yi suddenly felt a strong airflow sweeping towards him. He quickly set up a formation to conceal himself and Zhuque. He breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that he was not exposed.

He said, "I guess Shadow has unlocked the more difficult Jade Figurine."

Suzaku: "Is there an even more powerful mechanism?!"

"Of course, the jade figurines and the Happy Cigarettes are just appetizers. The real danger is yet to come."

"I really regret coming in with you. I can only hold you back here."

Suzaku's tone was low, and it was obvious that she genuinely felt guilty.

When I followed Yun Yi before, it was me who had stronger cultivation and protected the other person.

How did it become like this now?

Yun Yi comforted him, "I brought you here to find an opportunity for you to break through. The He Huan Sect's cultivation method is very compatible with you, so you can't give up easily. Cultivation is like rowing against the current. If you have the thought of giving up this time, I'm afraid you won't have such a good opportunity again."

Zhuque pulled himself together and said, "This guardian has remembered this. Thank you, Lord Right Sword Servant, for your guidance!"

Yun Yi had no choice but to continue looking at the changes in the square. It seemed that five shadows began to act separately and search for pavilions and towers respectively.

This is reasonable. Outside, Bai Wuyi and Song Xinci are fighting fiercely and the outcome is uncertain, so Shadow must hurry up and plunder the place clean.

In this way, Yun Yi also had the opportunity to divide and conquer.

He said, "According to the plan, we will first go find a scripture."

"what book?"

"The 'Creation Sutra of Life' recorded in the Secret Book of Hehuan."

Zhuque had naturally heard of this technique, which was more advanced than the "Secret Book of Hehuan" and could only be accessed by elders of the Hehuan Sect and above.

It is said that the full name of this skill is "Yin Yang Harmony and Creation Sutra". After practicing it to the extreme, the body can remain immortal and create life by itself. Although it is not good at attacking, it is a first-class health-preserving method.

When it comes to spiritual practice, it all comes down to "fate". Whoever lives longer will have more chances to encounter opportunities.

The Sutra of Life-Creation is such a practice. It does not seek to kill, but to harmonize one's own yin and yang and to create endlessly.

The reason why Yun Yi was deeply impressed by this technique was because he was fortunate enough to obtain it in his previous life after being seriously injured. Thanks to the extremely strong healing function of the Creation Technique, he was able to leave Paradise alive.

That time, it was not only the Tiancan Sect that came here to steal the treasure, there were also many people from the righteous path. It was even more dangerous than it is now.

He searched for the place he remembered, vaguely remembering that if he walked through a small corridor in the distance, he would see a place called Lanruo Hall. There were many longevity lamps lit there, used for praying or offering sacrifices.

However, Paradise has been deserted for many years, so naturally no one has taken care of the candles and they have all been extinguished long ago.

Yun Yi concealed his tracks and quietly walked over there with Zhuque. On the way, he not only had to avoid the jade figurine, but also had to avoid attracting the attention of the shadow.
