Chapter 290: Chapter 253: The Real Shaoyang l
“Hello, Master Qin.”
Chen Mobai greeted politely.
“Follow me. The Formation in the Treasure Trove is quite powerful. It requires a Gold Core Master to lead the way in order to enter.”
Qin Beichen sized up Chen Mobai, nodded slightly, and turned to lead the way. The two arrived at the back mountain of Crimson City, one after the other.
Here lies a canyon among the mountains. One could see streams flowing down from the tops of the mountains and lush trees amongst it, surrounded by green grass with multicolored flowers.
“We’re here.”
Qin Beichen led Chen Mobai to the center of the canyon.
Looking down, it was a massive pit of unknown depth.
The entrance of the hole was about a hundred meters in diameter with a steep wall. Numerous tunnels were dug into the sides, though their destination were unknown.
“So, this is the Treasure Trove?”
The place only existed in legends with no images or videos for reference online. Seeing it for the first time, Chen Mobai found it quite ordinary.
“This place was originally an abandoned Spirit Stone Mine left over from the prehistoric Daoist regime. Despite its rich Spiritual Energy, it initially only had Rank-3 Spirit Veins.”
“One of the five ancestors of the immortal Dao, Ancestor Yunya, discovered this place. He perceived the mystery under the Spirit Stone Mine, used the Heaven Reaching Great Method to penetrate through the layers of the mine, and found the first Vermillion Fruit Tree within the underground currents.” “Below the currents, he discovered the Red Iron Mine. Unsatisfied, Yunya kept drilling through the earth crust until he finally reached the core of the Crimson Mountain Spirit Vein and found a Rank-5 Earth Vein Spirit Pearl.”
“Later, Yunya established the Dance Tool Dao Academy here to pass down his Daoist Lineage and Great Method.”
As Qin Beichen spoke, he stretched out his hand and unfolded a misty cloud. It encircled the both of them, and they levitated, descending towards the underground cavern.
At that moment, a red glow rose from the depths of the Treasure Trove. Chen Mobai felt a horrifying temperature that could potentially turn him into ashes.
“This is Fire Godlight, the inheritance of our Dance Tool Dao Academy, a defensive prohibition laid by a Divinity Transformation Elder. Even a Nascent Soul Master wouldn’t dare to trespass rashly.”
As Qin Beichen spoke, Chen Mobai watched as the red divine light descended upon them.
Qin Beichen flashed his teacher ID, while Chen Mobai promptly took out his student ID stored in his bag.
After the Fire Godlight scanned their proof of identity, it halted before them.
Qin Beichen quickly produced the official, stamped recommendation letter. The Fire Godlight, seemingly sentient, scanned the document. After verifying its authenticity, it slowly dissipated.
A sparkle of fire came to life.
Chen Mobai watched as the recommendation paper in Qin Beichen’s hand suddenly ignited. Seeing this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
This meant that his identity had been registered into the Fire Godlight and, within this year, he could come and go from the Treasure Trove freely with his student ID.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to meet the manager of the Treasure Trove.”
Wrapping them in his misty light, Qin Beichen began to descend. Chen Mobai felt the surrounding Spiritual Energy get denser and denser. After descending about three hundred meters, he peeked through his gold-rimmed glasses; they were already at Rank-3.
And this was just the beginning.
As they kept descending, around one thousand meters deep, Chen Mobai found that energy shown on his glasses had reached Rank-3 of the intermediate grade…
When they hit three thousand meters, the Spiritual Energy Value had reached the lower level of Rank-4.
The temperature outside was increasing. Even with Qin Beichen’s misty light to shield him, he could not help but sweat.
And they were yet to reach the bottom. Not until they were twenty-eight thousand meters deep, did Chen Mobai’s right lens suddenly crack from the middle.
The glasses could only measure Spiritual Energy Value up to the upper levels of Rank-4.
Apparently, the concentration of Spiritual Energy here had exceeded Rank-4, reaching Rank-5.
Chen Mobai did not dare to act rashly and stayed under Qin Beichen’s protection, watching the crack on the lens grow longer.
“We’re here.”
Finally, Qin Beichen’s voice echoed.
Chen Mobai let out a sigh of relief and stopped to take off his glasses when… There was a ‘snap’!
Unable to bear the pressure, the lens shattered. Half of it flew out of the cloud of misty light.
Then, Chen Mobai watched as the lens instantly vaporized.
The temperature outside was so high that a human couldn’t possibly endure it.
Hovering mid-air, he looked down to see a lava flow beneath him. The scorching atmosphere filled his surroundings.
Chen Mobai finally understood why one needed a Gold Core Master to come here.
If one were to be careless at the depths of the Treasure Trove, even a True Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment could face danger.
Qin Beichen used his misty cloud to take Chen Mobai toward the center of the lava. Soon, they arrived above a dark red island in the middle of the lava.
Strangely enough, Chen Mobai, who had been feeling quite hot, felt a sense of coolness as soon as he set foot on the island.
Looking around, the island was not very large, about two to three thousand square meters.
The center of the island was dominated by a fiery red Vermillion Fruit Tree, laden with plump Vermillion Fruit. Seeing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but marvel.
Was this the only Rank-5 Vermillion Fruit Tree in the Dance Tool Dao Academy?
He followed Qin Beichen to a stone house under the tree.
A red-haired woman stood there..
