A mortal cultivating immortality can nurture spirit beasts.

Originally eager for revenge, Wang Tiangu became less impulsive upon hearing that there might be a replica of a spiritual treasure in the cave. Instead, he began to ponder it carefully.

The same was true for Dongmen Tu on the other side. Initially, he was only somewhat interested in this cave, but he still wanted to take the opportunity to avenge the loss of Spirit Beast Mountain. However, upon hearing that there might be a replica of a spirit treasure, he immediately abandoned his idea of ​​immediate revenge.

Linghu and Wenmin exchanged a glance and nodded to each other. Yunlu noticed their expressions and smiled, saying...

"It seems that fellow Daoists have reached a consensus. In that case, why don't we join forces to open a passage?"

"Join forces?"

The group of people who were once bitter enemies are now joining forces to pave the way. This is an extremely absurd thing, but in the face of huge benefits, everyone has chosen to compromise for the time being.

So the group took action. Yunlu conjured a large pink hand and slammed it down, while Dongmen Tu and the others also displayed their unique abilities, unleashing a variety of spells downwards.

At this moment, a light screen appeared, radiating golden light. However, these people were all Nascent Soul cultivators, and there were even several mid-Nascent Soul cultivators. Even if Jin Yuan Sanren were to be resurrected, he could only hide far away when he saw them, let alone the restrictions he left behind before his death.

With everyone's combined strength, they forcefully carved a passage through the golden barrier.

Upon seeing the passage open, Wang Tiangu was filled with excitement and wanted to enter. However, he remained cautious and first observed the movements of the others.

Linghu and Wenmin were the same, while Yunlu seemed to know something and didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

However, Dongmen Tu, relying on his two Five Elements Spiritual Infants and his superior skills and daring, did not take the risk himself, but instead sent a green-robed man to fly over.

The crowd did not stop them; on the contrary, they wanted to take this opportunity to find out more.

As soon as the green-robed man approached the passage, he was immediately blocked by an invisible force and was unable to enter.

Upon seeing this, Dongmen Tu's expression darkened, and he said, "This restriction is truly profound. It seems that we Nascent Soul cultivators cannot enter it, and we can only send lower-level disciples to try."

Everyone had their own guesses, so they weren't surprised to hear this. Linghu and Wenmin exchanged a glance and thought of the forbidden area trial. The forbidden area could only be entered by Qi Refining cultivators, so they wondered what the requirements were for the Golden Yuan Hermit's cave.

Wang Tiangu was greatly dissatisfied upon hearing this. On the battlefield of Jin Gu Yuan, the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Ghost Spirit Sect suffered the greatest losses, with many elite disciples dying, including even a promising junior like Wang Shan.

If only low-level disciples can enter, wouldn't the Ghost Spirit Sect suffer a great loss?

Thinking of this, Wang Tiangu quickly urged, "Fellow Daoists, why go through all this trouble? Since this restriction prevents us Nascent Soul cultivators from entering, why don't we join forces to break it completely?"

"Completely eliminate?"

Dongmen Tu seemed somewhat tempted by the suggestion, while Linghu and Wenmin exchanged glances. Only Yunlu shook her head and said...

"Fellow Daoist Wang, this restriction isn't so easy to break!"

"Fellow Daoist Gu, you overestimate this restriction. No matter how strong it is, we can't withstand it if we join forces."

Yunlu replied, "I'm not saying that this restriction is too strong for us to break, but rather that it contains a self-destruct formation. If we forcibly break the restriction, this cave will also be destroyed."

"What! Fellow Daoist Gu, is this true?"

Wang Tiangu was taken aback and immediately used his divine sense to investigate. Linghu and the others did the same. After observing for a while, they had no choice but to accept Yunlu's statement.

"It seems that we have no other choice but to send low-level disciples. How about this: we will each send our own disciples in, but the number of people cannot exceed 25."

Immediately afterwards, several Nascent Soul cultivators tested the restrictions on a few lower-level disciples and found that only Foundation Establishment cultivators could enter. So they all sent messages to their sects and began selecting disciples to enter the passage.

……

……

Yue Kingdom, Huangfeng Valley

Li Huayuan was talking to a fat man with a chubby face and a taciturn man.

"Senior Brother Lei, the Ancestor has sent word that we should select Foundation Establishment disciples to go there."

The fat man was Lei Wanhe. Lei Wanhe nodded and said, "I didn't expect it to be the cave left by Jin Yuan Sanren. As a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, he must have a lot of treasures. It's a pity that we have no chance to enter it."

Li Huayuan also sighed, but he wasn't too upset, after all, he had gained a lot of benefits when he attacked Spirit Beast Mountain more than two years ago.

"Since Senior Brother Lei agrees, this time the two of us will lead the selected disciples on the journey. As for the important task of guarding the valley, we will leave it to Senior Brother Huang."

Lei Wanhe naturally had no objections, while the taciturn Senior Brother Huang simply said "okay" and then fell silent.

"The next step is to select Foundation Establishment disciples. Senior Brother Lei, do you have any good candidates to recommend?"

"What's there to say? In a place like that, you naturally have to compete based on strength and choose the winner by the outcome of the duel. But since you brought this up, I would like to recommend someone. His name is Han Li and he is quite strong."

"Han Li?" Upon hearing this, Li Huayuan immediately thought of something. Back in Jingu Plain, Han Li, with his mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation, had killed four mid-Foundation Establishment cultivators in a row, a truly astonishing feat. The reason it hadn't spread was because Lin He, who was in the same period, had performed too brilliantly, killing more than a dozen Core Formation cultivators in a row. Under such dazzling light, people overlooked Han Li.

Han Li himself was also exceptionally low-key, which made him less famous. However, by chance, Han Li met Lei Wanhe, who then began to pay attention to him and even admired him.

Li Huayuan nodded and said, "This Han Li is indeed good, but I would recommend someone else even more. With him, this operation will definitely yield great results."

"You mean..." Lei Wanhe clearly realized something.

……

……

Li Huayuan was very efficient and decisive. He quickly set up dozens of arenas for disciples who wanted to participate in the operation to compete.

Lin He had no interest in the competition among these people. He had already been listed as a seeded player and could participate in the operation without having to compete.

Han Li, Liu Jing, and Song Meng are also among the seeded players.

Upon seeing Lin He, Han Li subconsciously scanned him with his divine sense, and his expression immediately became quite interesting.

"You...you've advanced to the late Foundation Establishment stage!"

Liu Jing, Song Meng, and the others were also greatly surprised; this Junior Brother Lin's advancement speed was simply too fast.

Not only Han Li and others, but also Core Formation stage cultivators such as Lei Wanhe and Li Huayuan were greatly surprised. Li Huayuan even gave Lin He a deep look.

Seeing this, Lin He sighed and muttered to himself,

"In order to obtain the Golden Yuan Relic, I devoted myself to cultivation and broke through to the late Foundation Establishment stage. However, this only attracted more attention. It seems that after obtaining this relic, I must leave Huangfeng Valley immediately."

Lin He was looking at a certain arena, where Senior Sister Chen was standing.

Her cultivation level was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, and she still needed to be selected through a tournament.

However, Senior Sister Chen didn't experience a single battle, because she took out that late-stage Foundation Establishment bronze-armored corpse, and no one challenged her. She passed the selection so easily.

Senior Sister Chen walked excitedly to Lin He's side, her expression saying, "Praise me!"

"Junior brother, look, no one dares to challenge me."

"Of course, Senior Sister, you're so amazing, why would they want to humiliate themselves?"

Senior Sister Chen was clearly very happy, holding Lin He's hand and reluctant to let go.

After the competition ended, 25 people were finally selected. Li Huayuan waved his hand and released the level-four spirit beast, the Silver Horned Python, which carried everyone away!
