No one really thinks cultivating immortality is difficult, right?

As Xu Luochen's voice sounded, Ye Ping couldn't help but respond.

"What's wrong, Second Senior Brother?"

Ye Ping spoke, seeming a little curious.

"How long have you been in the sect?"

Xu Luochen asked casually.

"No more, no less, about half a year."

Ye Ping calculated carefully and found that almost half a year had passed since he joined the sect.

"Half a year?"

After hearing this, Xu Luochen was inexplicably surprised. To be honest, he always felt that Ye Ping had been in the sect for several years.

But I never expected that Ye Ping only came for half a year.

Look at Ye Ping, then look at yourself.

Xu Luochen couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In half a year, Ye Ping's swordsmanship was superb, his alchemy skills were unparalleled, and his formation skills were first-rate. Basically, he was an all-round cultivator.

What’s even more terrifying is that it’s only been half a year. If it’s three to five years later, God knows how much Ye Ping will have grown.

Look at myself. I have been in Qingyun Taoist Sect for more than 20 years, but I have only just passed the alchemy assessment.

Comparing yourself with others will really make you angry to death.

Soon, Xu Luochen's voice sounded again.

"Junior brother, there is something I forgot to ask you. Where are your parents?"

Xu Luochen opened his mouth and asked about Ye Ping's parents.

"parents?"

When it comes to this, Ye Ping couldn't help but shook his head. He didn't know where his parents were.

Since traveling through time three years ago, Ye Ping has no idea who his parents are. He has been an orphan since childhood and only knows that he is from the State of Jin.

"Brother, I have been an orphan since I was young, so I don't know where my parents are."

Ye Ping replied that he did not have any deep feelings for his parents. After all, he had never met them, and he was also a time traveler.

"Alas, they are all poor people."

Xu Luochen sighed.

Then, Ye Ping's voice could not help but be heard.

"Second Brother, what about your parents?"

Ye Ping looked at Xu Luochen with curiosity.

"Like you, several decades ago, a disaster struck the entire Qingzhou. It was said that some treasure had appeared, which led to a fatal fight between two powerful men. The Qingzhou Mountains were completely destroyed, and floods were rampant. I don't know how many people lost their homes and lives because of it."

"I became an orphan during that disaster and was adopted by my master."

As if he was in a very good mood, Xu Luochen never wanted to mention this matter to others.

But now, he took the initiative to tell Ye Ping about his life experience.

"Brother, your parents must still be alive. They just haven't found you yet. But I believe that one day, your father will find you."

Ye Ping spoke, comfortingly.

After saying this, Xu Luochen chuckled. He no longer cared about this relationship. Anyway, they had never seen each other since childhood. If he said he had any feelings for her, it would be obviously fake.

Just like that, the two of them continued in silence all the way back to Qingyun Taoist Sect.

And at the same time.

The extreme northern part of Qingzhou.

Under an abyss.

A group of people appeared here.

This is the Qingzhou Demon Abyss, spanning Qingzhou and Lizhou. It is rumored that this Demon Abyss is the place where countless resentful souls of people gathered during the disaster in Qingzhou back then.

The Demonic Abyss is filled with terrible resentment. Even a Jindan cultivator must not step into the Demonic Abyss at will.

At this moment, this group of people were walking in the Demonic Abyss, holding an ancient lamp in their hands.

There were seven people in the group, four men and three women, each of them was handsome and had an extraordinary temperament, especially the man in the lead, who was wearing a star robe and was surrounded by starlight. Standing there, he gave people an extremely powerful feeling.

"Brother Xinghe, the demonic energy here is too strong, isn't it? What the hell is this place?"

Someone spoke in a low voice, looking around at the same time, his eyes full of vigilance.

"Don't talk nonsense, be quiet."

The man called Xinghe spoke calmly. The ancient lamp in his hand seemed to have magical powers, blocking the evil spirit.

In this way, the group moved forward and finally saw a big door.

But before they even stepped through the door, the terrifying demonic energy turned into a strong wind and blew towards everyone.

In an instant, the ancient lamp went out and everything seemed extremely dark.

Zizizi!

But the next moment, the leading man raised his hand, and in an instant another ancient lamp was lit, but this ancient lamp was different. In the light, a golden Buddha emerged, suppressing all evil spirits.

"Buddha fat lamp!"

“Brother Xinghe, you even have this thing?”

"Senior Brother Xinghe is worthy of being the top rookie in our Jiantian Academy. He even has such a rare item as the Buddha Fat Lamp."

Everyone spoke up, full of excitement.

It is said that this Buddha fat lamp is made of the fat from when the Buddha passed away. It contains infinite Buddha power and if lit, it can suppress all evil spirits.

"Don't talk for now."

"This time, the higher-ups asked us to investigate the Qingzhou Demon Abyss. I don't think it will be that simple."

"Be careful. If you go in later, it will be dangerous. Do you understand?"

Ye Xinghe spoke up and told everyone to be careful to avoid any accidents.

"Yes, Brother Xinghe."

"Okay, Brother Ye."

Everyone nodded in response.

Then he took the lead and walked straight in.

This is a great hall.

The inside looked very shabby and all the buildings were damaged.

The Buddha's fat lamp was very bright, illuminating all the surroundings, and everyone walked carefully in the hall.

Soon, they arrived at the center.

"It's the altar."

Someone spoke, pointing to the center area.

"There was blood."

"This bloodstain seems very different."

"Don't go over there, be careful."

When everyone arrived at the center, they soon discovered an altar. The area around the altar was stained with blood, but the bloodstains were a little strange.

Someone walked forward and wanted to take a closer look.

However, the next moment.

Several roars were heard.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

In the quiet hall, there were bursts of roars, and on the strange altar, five different figures suddenly appeared.

Qinglong.

White tiger.

Suzaku.

Xuanwu.

Kirin.

These are the five sacred beasts.

The roar was extremely terrifying, and everyone retreated one after another. Except for Ye Xinghe, the other six people were all injured, but not seriously.

Their expressions were full of astonishment.

"This is the Five Sacred Beasts."

"How could the true spirits of the five sacred beasts appear?"

"What kind of a hellish place is this? Can the true spirits of the five sacred beasts appear?"

“This place cannot be underestimated.”

They talked about it, their faces filled with astonishment, unable to believe what they saw.

The five sacred beasts are the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise and Qilin. They are sacred beasts of the human race and can also be called fairy beasts.

This kind of thing only comes once in a million years.

It is a truly supreme existence. Throughout the ages, countless powerful people have dreamed of being recognized by the holy beast, but almost few people can actually gain the recognition of the holy beast.

"These bloodstains are the blood of the holy beast."

Ye Xinghe's voice sounded. He frowned and looked at the altar carefully. Then he slowly opened his mouth and told everyone that the blood on the altar was the blood of the sacred beast.

"Blood of a holy beast? How can there be blood of a holy beast in such a ghost place?"

"Could it be that the disaster in Qingzhou was caused by someone discovering the blood of a sacred beast hidden here?"

"My goodness, is this blood still useful?"

Everyone spoke, and they were still shocked, because they knew what the blood of the sacred beast represented.

A drop of holy beast's blood can transform a person completely, and even bring bonus to the luck of heaven and earth, so they are naturally excited.

"The true spirit of this blood has all dissipated, so it is not very useful. But if you use it to make pills, it is still okay. You can collect it, but be careful."

Ye Xinghe spoke and walked towards the altar.

Look closely at the altar.

As for the others, they were quickly collecting the blood of the holy beasts, but the blood rivers had dried up and turned into blood powder, which needed to be collected bit by bit.

Even so, everyone was happy because it was the blood of a sacred beast, hard to come by in the world.

Ye Xinghe did not collect this holy blood. He knew at a glance that this holy blood had dried up and lost its true spiritual charm, so it was not very useful.

For myself, it has almost no effect.

He examined the altar carefully.

The altar was very strange. The most important thing was that he found a stone egg in the center of the altar. The stone egg had been broken. Ye Xinghe picked up a piece of the stone egg and looked at it carefully.

It took a long time to burn incense.

Finally, Ye Xinghe guessed something.

"Everyone, we may be in big trouble."

Ye Xinghe opened his mouth, and as his voice rang out, everyone couldn't help but become curious.

They had collected all the blood powder around the altar, and now after hearing what Ye Xinghe said, they couldn't help but become curious.
