Martial Universe: Starting with Lin Langtian, who crippled Lin Dong's father.

Chapter 37 Mysterious Cave

Lin Langtian nodded; he naturally knew.

When the Martial Ancestor attempted to break through to the Nirvana Tribulation, he used a million Nirvana Pills.

Compared to millions, the little bit of Nirvana I just attained is naturally like a mosquito's leg.

However, that was later, when they participated in the Hundred Dynasties War. By then, the Nirvana Pill was no longer considered a valuable item on the ancient battlefield.

Now, the energy contained in this Nirvana Pill is quite a good opportunity for Lin Langtian.

"Let's go, there's nothing else here. Let's get our hands on the Ancestral Symbol first."

The little sable looked out of the bamboo pavilion and urged them on.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian no longer hesitated, and a giant sword instantly materialized beneath his feet.

In an instant, they flashed out of the bamboo pavilion.

It transformed into a streak of light, piercing the sky and flashing away into the distance.

Not long after Lin Langtian left.

Countless figures emerged from the surrounding bamboo forest and darted towards the bamboo pavilion.

Just for a moment.

The sounds of fighting and shouts of friends calling out to each other echoed throughout the land.

Previously, due to Lin Langtian's oppressive aura, the original forces dared not enter, but they were also extremely greedy for the precious Nirvana Pill, so they hid in the surrounding bamboo forest and were unwilling to leave.

Now that Lin Langtian has just left, these forces could no longer contain themselves and rushed into the bamboo pavilion.

What if there are other opportunities? What if that white-robed youth didn't manage to steal all the Nirvana Pill?

……

The sword light flashed across the sky, slicing through the rainbow and leaving a faint white trail.

"arrive."

Standing atop the giant sword, Lin Langtian gazed at the vast plain below and spoke calmly.

The little ferret also poked its head out, gazing down at the sect ruins.

The plains not far away exude an endless ancient aura.

Countless years ago, this place was the stronghold of those super sects, and how glorious their times must have been. But all of that has turned into a pile of yellow earth with the passage of time.

And within it lie countless treasures, waiting for the day they will see the light again.

When they get close.

Lin Langtian was also deeply shocked.

The vast, boundless area is filled with buildings that rival the height of a hundred-story skyscraper in my previous life, stretching to the horizon.

An endless ancient aura emanates from it.

"Is this an ancient sect?"

Lin Langtian stared in shock at the ancient ruins before him.

"Yes, but even in ancient times, a sect of this size would be considered a super sect."

The little ferret, however, remained calm.

After all, as the young patriarch of the Heavenly Demon Sable Clan, he naturally possessed this much knowledge.

"However, quite a few people have come here before, so they must have experienced this place."

The little ferret sat on Lin Langtian's shoulder, its two little paws wrapped around each other, and said leisurely.

"However, such relics exist within the Great Yan Dynasty. Given the strength of the Great Yan Dynasty, it is certain that they have not yet fully explored this area."

Lin Langtian nodded slightly.

To express agreement.

Little Mink continued.

"Try sensing the Ancestral Symbol of Absorption. Your natal talisman was imprinted based on its shape, so you should be able to sense it somewhat."

"it is good."

The giant sword continued flying forward, passing countless ancient sites and massive, rusty palaces, all exuding a rich, ancient atmosphere.

A few again.

As they passed an ancient black tower, the natal talisman in the Niwan Palace suddenly jumped, as if it were reacting to something.

Lin Langtian suddenly turned his head and looked at the tall tower, his eyes flashing.

"There's a response?"

Little Marten followed Lin Langtian's gaze.

Lin Langtian nodded slowly, a hint of joy in his eyes.

Although the pulsation was faint, it could be clearly perceived with deliberate attention.

The greatsword slowed down, turned around, and slowly moved towards the black tower.

Landing in front of the tower, I looked at the ancient black tower before me. The mottled door had endured countless years and was completely unrecognizable from its original form, covered in dark red rust spots.

"It seems someone has already gone in."

The little sable frowned slightly as it stared at the wide-open red door.

The tower is located on a mountain peak, surrounded by thick fog, and dense Yuan energy envelops the entire mountain in rings.

It's like a fairyland.

Because of the abundant Yuan energy, a large number of people gathered on the entire mountain, and some even sat down and began cultivating.

So it's not surprising that someone has been here.

However, since it concerned such an important matter as the Ancestral Symbol, Little Marten was naturally a little nervous.

"No rush, this ancestral symbol is not something an ordinary person can take away."

Lin Langtian offered a word of comfort to Xiao Diao.

Although he knew that the Devouring Ancestral Symbol would not be taken away by the Yin Puppet Sect Master for seven years, he couldn't tell Xiao Diao directly.

Enter the Black Tower.

A dark passage leading straight down into the ground appeared before the two of them.

Without much thought, Lin Langtian headed straight into the depths.

The cave is winding and deep, with countless stone paths leading through it, like a maze, and it covers a vast area.

Fortunately, he was guided by his natal talisman; otherwise, finding the Devouring Ancestral Talisman amidst dozens of stone paths would have been an impossible task.

Lin Langtian was also somewhat glad that he had visited the Talisman Master Tower before coming here.

Otherwise, this trip would most likely end in failure.

However, as they went deeper, the traces of human activity gradually disappeared, although there were still quite a few footprints at the beginning.

Now, those traces have completely disappeared, without a trace.

Several more minutes later.

A glimmer of light suddenly appeared ahead, causing the natal talisman in the Niwan Palace to tremble violently.

Lin Langtian's spirits lifted, and he and the sable immediately dashed towards the light.

Suddenly, a huge black hole appeared in front of the two of them.

The black hole is bottomless, seemingly leading straight to the earth's depths, and its surroundings are countless caves.

Lin Langtian entered one of the caves.

"Why are there so many dismembered limbs?"

He frowned.

The place was already quiet and dimly lit, and the scattered limbs only added to the eerie atmosphere.

Just like the horror plots in novels or movies.

"They're just talisman puppets, but the quality of these talisman puppets is clearly not in the same league as that so-called Yin Puppet Sect; they're far superior."

The little ferret poked its head out, seemingly intrigued as well.

"In such a large sect, these talisman puppets are available for disciples to choose from for free."

"Free selection?"

"For disciples with high talent, of course, the selection is free. Speaking of which, why don't you consider the Myriad Puppet Sect? Among the super sects, only they can afford to provide that."

The little ferret had a big smile on its face.

"We'll see."

Lin Langtian glanced once more at the scattered limbs, then turned and headed deeper into the area.

Perhaps still carrying a trace of preconceived notions from a past life, there is still some resistance to this method of turning living people into puppets.

However, if they later discover that they are more suited to cultivating this puppetry technique, they will suppress their discomfort.

As for the Ten Thousand Puppet Sect...

Although it is not mentioned much in the original work and is only briefly mentioned, it is mostly unrelated to the Otherworldly Demons.

As long as they don't side with the Demonic Ones like the Yuan Sect, they're all worth considering.

Following the sensation of their natal talisman, they arrived at another cave entrance.

The walls are surrounded by wire mesh, with only a small gap in the very center.

Lin Langtian jumped into the hole, his body rapidly descending.

The enormous, bottomless black hole seemed to absorb most of the light, leaving only darkness within.

During the descent, Lin Langtian also saw countless dark caves on the wall, with many obscure and difficult-to-understand hidden runes carved on the side.

There were many talisman puppets in the cave, but most of them had lost their energy fluctuations and seemed to have been destroyed.
