?Chapter 979: Volume 6 Spirit Treasures Chapter 976 Kunwu of Dreamcloud Mountains Chapter 979: Volume 6 Spirit Treasures Chapter 976 Kunwu of Dreamcloud Mountains Half a day later, within the depths of the Valley of a Thousand Poisons, where poisonous insects swarmed, suddenly, a silver light flashed, followed by more than a dozen enormous fireballs shooting forth.


    “Puff, puff” some noises followed, and these fireballs did not explode but instead transformed into several lifelike fire serpents in mid-air, plunging toward the ground.


    A fierce heat filled the air, and a small sea of flames formed instantaneously, turning all the insects on the ground to ash in the blink of an eye.


    “Goodness!


    Fellow Daoist Han’s control over magic has truly reached a transcendental level-if you said his main practice was the fire attribute cultivation arts, I doubt few would disagree,” a woman’s light laughter rang out.


    “It’s nothing.


    Back when I was in the lower realm, my favorite technique to use was the Fireball Technique; it’s just a matter of practice making perfect,” Han Li responded indifferently.


    Then, from the mist shrouded in silver light in the distance, the figures of the large man and Han Li, among others, successively appeared and walked toward the gradually extinguishing sea of fire.


    Han Li’s gaze swept over the distance, his expression changed slightly, and he suddenly stopped, across from the fire sea where the toxic mist was exceptionally thin, vaguely revealing something.


    But before he could extend his Divine Sense, the leading large man suddenly pointed at the jade Ruyi above his head, which immediately surged in silver light and flew forward.


    As a result, under the illumination of the silver light, everything that was previously shrouded in fog became clear.


    After seeing clearly, Han Li involuntarily took in a breath of cold air.


    Just tens of meters ahead, a massive ravine appeared there.


    Looking left and right, it was impossible to discern the length of the ravine through the mist, but it was at least a hundred meters wide, with faint black Yin winds occasionally spurting out, scattering the nearby toxic fog.

    “This is the entrance to the Yin Yang Cave.


    Let’s go over,” said the elder.


    Except for Han Li and Bai Yaoyi, the others had visited this place before, so after the elder’s comment, they walked over without hesitating and stood beside the giant ravine.


    Although the Yin wind spurting from the ravine was extremely fierce, everyone’s demeanor remained calm, and they peered down unhurriedly.


    The interior of the ravine was like an abyss, inscrutably deep; black Yin winds whipped up into variously sized strange swirls, with eerie howls faintly coming from within.


    Han Li glanced around the sides of the ravine, only to see the walls sparkling brilliantly, seemingly encased in a thick layer of ice.


    “What we are seeing now is just ordinary Yin wind, not the Soul-Shocking Yin Wind.


    However, once we descend a few hundred meters below, the Soul-Shocking Yin Wind will appear.


    Without preparation, even we Nascent Soul cultivators cannot last long in the wind.


    But now that I have the Purple Nether Bead, naturally, the threat of this wind greatly decreases.


    However, the strength of the Soul-Shocking Yin Wind varies in different parts of the Yin Yang Cave, so I need not say more, as you all are experienced individuals,” after everyone had observed the ravine, an elder with the surname Fu stated with a light cough.


    Then, he raised his hand and suddenly a purplish misty bead the size of a fist appeared in his hand.


    Upon the bead’s appearance, Han Li carefully glanced at it.


    In an instant, a purple shadow flitted across his vision, and his Divine Sense momentarily became bewildered as if his spirit was about to fly out of his body.


    He was alarmed, but at that moment, the Great Development Technique within him automatically started operating, a cool sensation flashed through his mind, and his consciousness returned to normal.


    Han Li kept a calm exterior, but his heart was startled.


    This item was truly worthy of being the sect-guarding treasure of the Devilcharm Sect, extremely sinister indeed.


    Thinking this, Han Li couldn’t help but glance at the Yuan surnamed large man and Bai Yaoyi.


    The two of them flickered in their gazes, and their expressions also looked not too good.


    It seemed they, too, had suffered from the bead’s bewitching effects unawares.


    It was unknown how these two managed to escape the bead’s effects using some secret technique.


    However, Elder Fu seemed oblivious to the three’s investigatory looks and supported the bead in one hand, while a complex series of spell incantations emanated from his mouth.


    Suddenly, a dazzling brilliance flashed, and a layer of almost imperceptible halo emitted from the bead, enveloping a thirty-meter radius all around, including where Han Li and the others stood, within a pale purple glow.


    The originally ferociously cold Yin wind around significantly weakened by more than half.


    “Indeed, the Purple Nether Bead lives up to its reputation!” The Yuan surnamed large man put away the jade Ruyi and could not help but exclaim after seeing this.


    “This bead’s current non-significance and how effective it will be, we’ll only know once we go down.


    Let us proceed,” the elder said, holding the Purple Nether Bead in one hand while conjuring a purple-red clump of mist with the other, as he casually remarked.


    Following this, green light flashed around his body, and he slowly floated downward into the ravine.


    Han Li and the others would certainly not leave the purple halo; similarly, they released their protective treasures and followed into the deep trench.


    The large man released a green jade medallion that hovered above his head; Bai Yaoyi had an ice crystal dagger circling around her body; the woman in black had a pitch-black shield pressed close in front of her.


    Han Li merely exhaled a few golden flying swords, safeguarding his entire body.


    After a short while, the figures of the group disappeared without a trace into the swirling black vortex below, as the luminous light flashed rapidly.


    The area around the massive trench once again returned to calm.


    Just as Han Li and his group entered the Yin Yang Cave, elsewhere in the Southern Border over an unknown small lake in midair, seven or eight cultivators were floating, listening to a man in black speak.


    These cultivators, both secular and clerical, were evidently a few of the Ye Clan cultivators that had gathered in the royal capital months ago.


    The eccentric with a large head was also swaying, standing right in the center of the crowd, with the mid Nascent Soul stage square-faced cultivator next to him.


    Not far behind him was a youth that bore a striking resemblance to Han Li, an ancient demonic technique practitioner.


    This demon now listened emotionlessly to the cultivator in front of him.


    The man in black, at the Core Formation Stage in his cultivation, wore an extremely respectful demeanor before these Nascent Soul realm clan elders.


    “Four hundred years ago, from a Fragmented Stele in ancient ruins, our Ye Clan learned the approximate location of Mount Kunwu and started planning for this matter.


    This revered sacred site among Immortal Mountain which, for some unknown reason, was buried underground by ancient experts employing vast divine powers.


    Not to mention that back in those days, the mountain housed numerous ancient expert’s abodes, certainly worth exploring.


    More importantly, the stele also revealed that when ancient experts sealed the mountain, they left behind two heavenly spirit treasures.


    If our Ye Clan could acquire these two treasures, we could instantly double our strength, enough to deter the large sects from both righteous and demonic pathways.


    We have spent over a hundred years on this, sending out numerous clan disciples, almost scouring through half of Great Jin, until finally discovering the location marked beneath this lake.


    Immediately, we dispatched our clan’s Array Masters to begin removing the restrictions.


    This matter being of great importance was, therefore, always specifically managed by the previous generation Great Elders, and only a handful of other elders were aware of it.”


    The man in black paused here before continuing:


    “But these ancient restrictions turned out to be far more profound than we anticipated, with layers upon layers, extending beneath the ground for nearly a hundred li.


    Another century passed as over a dozen Array Masters studied and finally devised a method to unlock these restrictions.


    It required harnessing the power of heaven and earth to break the arrays with arrays, to thoroughly remove the sealed restrictions.


    However, the materials needed for this, and the number of arrays required to be set up, made it an incredibly grand project indeed.


    Most critically, many of the materials for setting up the arrays are exceedingly rare, requiring careful and stealthy collection and setup, without alerting any keen observer.


    Otherwise, it would simply amount to making wedding garments for another.


    Therefore, the actions of setting up this array for breaking the restrictions have been sporadic, and were even halted several times.


    Only now has this project finally neared completion.


    Our clan’s Array Masters are setting up the final array at the bottom of the lake, expecting it to be finished in about a month.


    At that time, we will also activate a super concealing array to suppress the astonishing phenomena produced during the restriction breaking, allowing the elders to freely enter Mount Kunwu to retrieve the treasures.”


    After the explanation, the man in black immediately folded his hands and stepped aside, saying no more.


    “Mount Kunwu?


    So that’s our destination this time?”


    “Incredible!


    I always thought it was some ancient expert’s abode!”


    “Tsk tsk, only a place like Mount Kunwu could possibly contain heavenly spirit treasures.”


    …


    For a time, everyone except the eccentric, the square-faced cultivator, and the ancient demonic technique practitioner, couldn’t help but whisper amongst themselves, barely able to hide their excitement.


    “Hmph!


    Don’t get too pleased so soon.


    Removing the restrictions is merely the first step in obtaining the treasures.


    If obtaining them were so simple, why would the third younger brother gather us here and even invite Seventh Uncle to assist us?


    And as the Great Elder, the third younger brother will also avoid the attention of other sects, arriving here in a month to join us in entering Mount Kunwu,” the square-faced cultivator said, his expression darkening.


    Hearing this, the other cultivators fell silent for a while.


    “Listen to your brother’s words, is there something amiss in Mount Kunwu?” asked an elder from the Ye Clan, dressed in Taoist garments, unable to restrain his inquiry.


    “More than amiss; it’s not impossible that entering this time could be a one-way trip,” the square-faced middle-aged man said grimly.


    “How could that be possible?


    We have both Seventh Uncle and the third younger brother, two great cultivators with us.


    Even if the restrictions are formidable, they should pose no problem,” a scholar also expressed his shock.


    “If only it were that simple.


    Have you not considered why those ancient sects would seal such a wonderful and sacred site as Mount Kunwu, leaving behind heavenly spirit treasures?


    There must be some earth-shattering secrets here.


    The dangers are imaginable,” the square-faced cultivator said ominously.


    Hearing this, the others couldn’t help but exchange glances.


    “Enough, this is only the worst-case scenario.


    It’s possible that there were other compelling reasons for sealing the mountain.


    You needn’t worry too much.


    Nonetheless, we must be cautious.


    Should anything happen, I certainly won’t just stand by and watch,” the eccentric spoke with a chuckle.


    At this, everyone’s expressions returned to normal.


    But at that moment, the square-faced middle-aged man turned his head, suddenly addressing the ancient demon behind him seriously:


    “Senior Han, you are versed in various ancient scriptures; entering Mount Kunwu, we will need your help even more.


    Rest assured, we have already found two evil treasures, and once this affair is concluded, I will entrust the treasures to Fellow Daoist.”
