A blind man cultivates immortality and witnesses the great secret of the holy maiden in her bridal c

Seeing Chen Yang's enthusiastic expression, Feng Tingting naturally wouldn't spoil his fun. She nodded and said, "Alright, we can look into it and see what the Holy Fire Sect is up to."

At this moment, the wind of the Black Desert swept across the battlefield, carrying fine sand grains, and the air still carried a faint smell of blood and gunpowder.

Chen Yang and Feng Tingting landed side by side on the ground, and the cultivators from Baisongmen and Tianhaimen immediately gathered around. After a series of battles, everyone's admiration for Chen Yang was already overflowing, and their eyes were full of awe and respect.

Chen Yang glanced at everyone and said:

"It seems the Holy Fire Cult has a specific plan for this rift, so we must not be careless. We'll split into several teams and explore the rift again to see what the Holy Fire Cult is up to. If we encounter them again, we'll immediately send out a distress signal. We absolutely must not engage in direct combat."

"Also, take this opportunity to search for any otherworldly creatures here, and eliminate these otherworldly demons as well."

"Of course, most importantly, we need to find out what the Holy Fire Cult's purpose is, and what the immortal corpse they're talking about is. Everyone, go and search as soon as possible, and contact each other immediately after you find any clues."

After issuing the task, Chen Yang instructed everyone to split into teams.

Feng Tingting naturally followed Chen Yang's instructions and ordered her subordinates to act accordingly.

Soon, everyone dispersed into various parts of the crevice and began searching carefully.

Chen Yang and Feng Tingting then took to the air together, quickly flying through the crevice to investigate.

The two walked hand in hand. Seeing that no one was around, Feng Tingting didn't refuse, and couldn't help but feel a little smug. She secretly despised herself—it was just holding hands, yet she was so happy; her conscience was practically shattered.

After searching for an entire day, almost every part of the crevice was looted, but the immortal remains mentioned by the Holy Fire Cult were nowhere to be found.

Chen Yang was slightly disappointed. He turned to look at Feng Tingting, sighed, and said, "It seems there's no chance of finding the immortal's cave."

Feng Tingting frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Perhaps there is still one place we haven't explored."

Chen Yang looked at her, a hint of doubt on his face.

Feng Tingting pointed to the black desert beneath her feet and said, "We haven't explored what lies beneath this desert yet. When we first came in, I felt that this black desert was a bit strange. Now that I think about it carefully, the ground itself is abnormal, and the black sand looks more like gravel that was crushed by some kind of enormous force."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang's eyes lit up.

He immediately pulled Feng Tingting down to the ground, their feet sinking into the fine, cool black sand, carefully sensing its texture. Just as Feng Tingting had said, this sand didn't seem like naturally formed fine sand at all; instead, it resembled a massive black iron rock mountain range that had been shattered by an immense force, forming the boundless desert before them.

"You're right!" Chen Yang said. "We should dig deeper!"

By this time, the people from Baisongmen and Tianhaimen had finished their search and were gathering over.

The team now numbers a thousand people. They searched the rift for a day and a night and did not encounter any more members of the Holy Fire Cult or any other alien creatures. It is clear that the cleanup mission has been perfectly completed and the rift is now safe enough.

Hu Hai, accompanied by the elders beside him, walked towards Chen Yang, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Junior Brother Chen, the rift has now been completely cleared, and we can place the shielding array. You have made the greatest contribution, so it is up to you to decide which Golden Core cultivator this spatial rift belongs to."

Chen Yang turned to look at Feng Tingting, who shrugged and said, "Our Bai Song Sect has received a tremendous favor from you, so this spot should rightfully be given to you. You can decide."

Chen Yang nodded, then took out a small flag from his storage ring, which contained Su Nuanyun's divine sense.

Chen Yang handed the small flag to Hu Hai and said, "Elder Hu, then I won't stand on ceremony. This crack will belong to Elder Su Nuanyun."

Hu Hai was taken aback, then bowed and replied, "Alright, I'll have someone set up an array to shield divine sense right now."

"Okay, you guys go make the arrangements." Chen Yang nodded and added, "Also, leave two hundred people behind to help me dig deeper into this desert."

Soon, more than two hundred cultivators stepped forward.

The group circulated their spiritual energy, causing sand and stones to fly as they dug into the black desert with a crackling sound. Everyone present was at least at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm, making digging through the sand and stones incredibly easy.

About an hour later, dozens of sand pits, each more than ten meters deep, had been dug out in the desert.

Just then, a disciple below suddenly screamed in horror. He then quickly flew to the ground, his face turning pale instantly, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Chen Yang and Feng Tingting immediately rushed over.

Chen Yang glanced at the disciple and immediately shouted, "Everyone, retreat! This place is poisonous!"

As he spoke, Chen Yang strode over to the poisoned disciple and swiftly fed him an antidote pill.

The disciple's face had turned green, but after taking the pill, the green tinge on his face slowly faded, and he gradually regained some of his rosy complexion.

Chen Yang helped him to the side and asked, "What happened?"

The disciple, still shaken, pointed to the bottom of the pit and said, "There's something down there! When I was digging down there, the last strike seemed to shatter a spatial barrier, and the poisonous mist that escaped instantly enveloped me. If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Chen's timely intervention, I probably would have died from the poison on the spot."

Chen Yang nodded and started walking towards the cave.

Feng Tingting grabbed his arm and said urgently, "Chen Yang, don't act rashly! Judging from this disciple's appearance, he's likely been poisoned by corpse poison, and it's even the poison of an immortal corpse! I once heard a Golden Core elder from our sect say that if it's truly the corpse of an ancient immortal, after countless years, the corpse poison emitted by the body is incredibly terrifying. Even a peak Divine Power Realm cultivator, or even a Golden Core Realm cultivator, cannot resist it. You absolutely mustn't take the risk!"

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Chen Yang waved his hand.

He then tiptoed closer to the edge of the sandpit and peered down. At the very bottom of the sandpit, about eight meters below the surface, a thin layer of green poisonous mist lingered.

The poisonous fog looked thin, but no one dared to underestimate it.

Chen Yang gritted his teeth, his figure flashed, and he slowly flew straight towards the bottom of the pit.

Upon reaching a depth of eight meters, Chen Yang felt a wave of dizziness and a burning sensation on his skin as soon as he came into contact with the layer of poisonous fog.

He felt a chill run down his spine, realizing this was the power of the corpse poison. He immediately waved his hand, and a layer of golden flames instantly enveloped his body. At the same time, he quickly closed his eyes and activated his Primordial Thunder Eyes.

"Snap!"

A blinding flash of lightning illuminated his mind, instantly eradicating the corpse poison that had been affecting his consciousness.
