After Qin Changsheng briefly treated Shi Nian's wounds, the two of them meditated cross-legged where they were, regaining some strength first.
For warriors like them, if they rush to explore the surroundings when their physical condition is not good, they will be in greater danger.
After about a few hours, the two of them opened their eyes from their meditative state and began to explore around the cave.
"Judging from the concentration of spiritual energy here, it shouldn't be much different from the one on Aolai Peak just now. We should still be in the realm of Qingzhi Mountain."
Qin Changsheng analyzed.
Shi Nian nodded: "We should have been transported to this place through an alternate space by some ancient space spell."
"This ancient spell consumes a lot of money and has high requirements on the operator. If it is completed in the secular world, it should not be able to teleport too far."
Shi Nian confirmed Qin Changsheng's conjecture. They should be in a cave in Qingzhi Mountain now.
But, why are they trapped in this place?
What makes Qin Changsheng feel even more strange is that there seems to be something faintly attracting him deep in the cave.
This feeling is very familiar.
Qin Changsheng had felt like this from the moment he entered Qingxiao Mountain.
He had previously thought that this was the purple-gold pangolin's lock on foreign intruders, but now that the beast was dead, this feeling still existed.
Even though he was curious, Qin Changsheng did not rush into the depths of the cave.
He knew that the more tempting something was, the more it often represented great danger.
Qin Changsheng looked at Shi Nian next to him and asked curiously: "Miss Shi, what Ji Lan just said about the treasure hunt was..."
Hearing Qin Changsheng mention this matter, Shi Nian's face showed a look of shame.
"Mr. Qin, actually...we did have some selfish motives for going up the mountain this time."
According to reliable information, the magic weapons in Qingzhi Mountain are at least at the level of spiritual weapons.
In addition to the Ji family who are ready to take action, there are countless forces that want to get involved openly or covertly.
"According to the original information, this treasure will not appear in the world for at least half a month. Now it seems that Ji Lan used some means to forcibly inject too much hidden spiritual energy into Qingzhi Mountain, causing Qingzhi There are various changes happening in the mountain, and treasures are likely to appear in advance."
Qin Changsheng nodded thoughtfully: "So, your going up the mountain to investigate the ferocious beasts is actually more of a cover. Treasure hunting is the real purpose. Could this so-called carpet search be looking for the entrance to the treasure?"
There was a look of shame on Shi Nian's face: "There is indeed an element of this aspect in it. If we find the entrance, we can take an advantage in the subsequent battle to seize the treasure. Looking back now, this selfishness, Compared with the righteousness of the company leader and Mr. Qin who serve the country and the people, it is really ridiculous."
Shi Nian was ashamed.
In the secluded world, the supreme principle is followed everywhere that all things are of inferior quality and only the highest level of cultivation can be achieved.
As long as it is beneficial to practice, even many principles can be discarded. The so-called mission of the Dragon and Phoenix Hall is just a means to achieve the goal.
But after this trip to the secular world, Shi Nian discovered that this world is really different.
There are really people who, for the sake of righteousness and the common people, will give up their small self and achieve their great self.
Qin Changsheng shook his head: "I don't want to be a great hero for the country and the people. I just hope to protect the people around me and try to minimize the number of people who encounter unnecessary misfortunes."
Qin Changsheng told the truth.
He is not the Holy Mother, nor is he some great saint who has established a mission for the livelihood of the people since childhood.
He has only personally experienced misfortune and oppression, and hopes that fewer people will experience the same pain as him.
A gentleman's simple idea of judging his deeds regardless of his heart, on the contrary, complies with the way of heaven.
"If you put it this way, Ji Lan should be happily hunting for treasures at this moment."
Qin Changsheng was thoughtful.
"Probably not that soon."
Shi Nian shook his head: "If the treasure appears and causes changes in the world, we should be able to feel it even if we are in the cave. We are still just maintaining the previous status quo. Could it be...could it be that it's not time yet? ?”
Qin Changsheng made up his mind: "No matter what, our top priority is to get out as soon as possible. Being trapped in this place is too passive."
Shi Nian silently recited the secret method and summoned a luminous pearl. The emerald green light made the cave much brighter.
Qin Changsheng summoned a small golden elephant through the Yin-Yang Golden Elephant Formation and let it explore the path ahead.
In this way, if there is any hidden weapon mechanism in the cave, the two of them can respond in time.
Choosing one or the other is nothing more than advancement or retreat.
The two of them walked in one direction first. The cave was not very big, and soon they felt like they were about to reach the exit.
"I can feel that there should be an exit in front."
Shi Nian's face showed excitement.
Qin Changsheng looked very calm: "There are expensive methods, it shouldn't be that simple, so be careful."
Sure enough, the next second, the golden elephant exploring the way in front suddenly let out a cry, and his whole body was instantly wrapped in a black smoke that spread from nowhere.
This black smoke is like a toxin that decomposes everything. The moment it comes into contact with the golden elephant, the corruptive aura causes the golden elephant to disintegrate instantly.
"Master Qin, in front..."
Shi Nian looked forward with a somewhat frightened expression. What on earth could make even the well-informed and powerful Hidden Martial Emperor so frightened?
"Front?"
Qin Changsheng frowned and looked up, not far away, he saw dense black energy like a ghost emerging from hell, trying to kill the two of them.
With such a dense and concentrated corrupt energy, I am afraid that even the third and fourth level Martial Emperors will be swallowed up by this death energy in an instant!
Under the influence of this deathly energy, the luminous pearl dimmed almost instantly and fell apart in the air.
In just a moment, the corrupt energy seemed to sense their presence and rushed toward them.
"run!"
This time, Qin Changsheng didn't hesitate at all and was about to pick up Shi Nian, turn around and run away.
Unexpectedly, when he turned around, this little girl was already dozens of steps away from him.
Damn, when it comes to life-saving abilities, Qin Changsheng is really not enough in front of this group of hidden warriors.
The fairy-binding silk wrapped around Qin Changsheng's waist and pulled him to Shi Nian's side.
Qin Changsheng took the opportunity to turn around and fire a few Red Dragon Techniques to disperse the corrupting air.
"What on earth is going on? I have never seen such a strong atmosphere of corruption!"
