Chapter 242: Courtyard

ey were either disciples of Shaohua Mountain or families affiliated with Shaohua Mountain. They all collected information through Shaohua Mountain, so it's no wonder there are similarities.Qin Sang de...On the endless mountains, ancient temples are scattered among the forests. Though dilapidated, they still exude a mysterious aura from the distant past.

These ancient halls were severely damaged, and there was no trace of any plaques or similar objects left behind.

However, Qin Sang noticed that there were patches of land in the mountains that seemed to be medicinal gardens.

This place could very well be used for alchemy!

What Qin Sang secretly frowned upon was that the fire jade centipede had been moving in his palm all along, and even after arriving at this place, he still couldn't sense the presence of any spiritual creatures.

Just as Qin Sang was about to venture inside to have a look, suddenly a person shot out from the ruins.

Those who enter the ancestral hall all know each other's names.

Qin Sang remembered that this person was a disciple of Taiyi Danzong, named Yun Youzi as his senior brother, but his cultivation base was higher than Yun Youzi's by a notch.

He was one of the first nine people to enter the Ancient Immortal Residence, even before Qin Sang.

Only seeing this person with a sullen face, cursing as he flew out of the ancient hall on his sword. He directly flew out of the mountain range, seemingly not intending to continue searching.

Upon seeing Qin Sang, this man merely nodded with disinterest. As Qin Sang brushed past him, he hesitated for a moment and spoke, "Qin Daoist, for the sake of Yun Shixiong's face, I'll give you a heads-up: don't waste your time going in there. This place is utterly devoid of anything valuable. I scoured every inch from one end to the other, finding nothing but empty space. Not even a single sprig of spirit grass! It's a desolate wasteland where even rats would leave with tears in their eyes!"

Qin Sang was startled and hurriedly bowed in thanks.

This person didn't care, not even turning back. He kept flying and cursing all the way, until his figure disappeared from Qin Sang's sight. Even then, he could still hear him shouting curses.

Qin Sang smiled faintly, did not leave directly, pressed the escape light, entered the mountains, and quickly searched for several ancient palaces and medicine gardens that looked extraordinary.

As expected, as people say, there is nothing left but broken walls, withered branches and fallen leaves.

Even fire jade centipedes showed no reaction.

Back on the peak, Qin Sang gazed ahead. The scene beyond this mountain range grew increasingly desolate.

Then he looked around, suddenly changed direction, and instead of continuing north, turned west.

After investigating so many sites along the way, there has been no gain.

Qin Sang had already guessed this, now that it was confirmed, the outer areas of the ancient Xiu's residence, those places that weren't too dangerous, had been ransacked by Mo Men cultivators more than once. Who knows, they might have even dug three feet into the ground.

Searching for ancient relics in these places is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

It's impossible to find a bargain anymore.

If there are still treasures in the ancestral home that haven't been taken, they will only exist in one place.

On the road, Qin Sang sometimes saw distant lights or sword lights flashing past, just like him, heading west.

In this direction, figures appear much more frequently, it seems that everyone is now aware of the problem and are converging towards those four celestial peaks as one.

As the distance shortened, the outlines of the four towering peaks became increasingly clear. However, the details on the mountain remained obscured, as if an unseen barrier prevented those below from peering into its mysteries.

In the high sky, there were clouds and mist swirling around the peaks of the mountains. It was unclear how high these four mountains truly were. This kind of mist did not resemble natural clouds, but rather looked similar to the fog in a trial space.

At the foot of Tianfeng, the first thing that catches your eye is a mysterious rune in the shape of a flame. It hangs in mid-air, like an inverted red jade bowl, blocking off a large area of space.

The runes were crimson red like fire, massive and boundless, covering the sky and earth.

Standing on the ground and looking up, there's a feeling of being engulfed in a sea of fire.

Qin Sang narrowed his eyes, staring at the fire runes, his heart pounding with alarm.

From this distance, he could still clearly feel the extreme fury contained within the flame script, as if a terrifying storm capable of destroying heaven and earth was brewing there.

Before the flames runes, he was so weak, once a storm swept through, being touched by the edge meant death!

This must be the protective formation.

However, at this time, the flames runes were covered with cracks. Through the gaps, one could see a corner of the iceberg below.

>

Under the flame runes, countless peaks rose in bizarre shapes, scattered like stars.

It's easy to imagine that during its heyday, the ancient immortal dwelling must have been a breathtaking sight. Countless cultivators moving between the mountains, what a magnificent scene it must have been!

>

Among these peaks, more than half are completely exposed. They have either ancient palaces or altars, and so on. Just like other places, they have become ruins, destroyed very severely.

But there are also some mountain peaks where certain areas on the mountain are blocked by thick fog or light walls, which cannot be penetrated by the naked eye.

These mists are not ordinary fog, but manifestations of powerful restrictions evolved. The presence of the mist indicates that the restriction is still intact, and it's highly likely that whatever is inside has not yet been taken out!

However, being able to stand firm until now, uncracked by any force, is definitely not easy.

Qin Sang's gaze shifted, and through a narrow slit, he saw a mountain. On that mountain, several wisps of mist lingered, dispersed throughout the peaks.

At this time, in front of one cloud of mist, three people had gathered.

All three were masters at the middle stage of foundation building. When they tried to break the seal together, it seemed that progress was not smooth. After several attempts to enter the fog, without exception, they were all repelled by the fog.

Every time they failed to break the seal, several streaks of silvery lightning would chase out from the mist, formidable in their presence. It took the three of them working together to barely withstand it.

Until the very end, he was unable to break this prohibition and had no choice but to leave in disappointment, seeking a different place.

Seeing this scene, Qin Sang's heart sank slightly. If he wanted to gain something, it seemed he could only cooperate with others.

Qin Sang pondered for a moment before setting off. He carefully moved through a gap in the flame runes and landed on a mountain peak at the edge.

Just as Qin Sang entered the runes, the fiery centipede in his palm suddenly became unusually active.

Here there truly are treasures!

Not seeing any of his fellow disciples from his sect around, Qin Sang looked left and right, then decided to search alone with the Fire Jade Centipede.

Unexpectedly, the fire jade centipede's first target was the place where those three people had returned empty-handed.

Qin Sang was helpless and had to grab the Fiery Jade Centipede, leaving this mountain. After getting out of its sensing range, he would release it again.

Thus, Qin Sang wandered aimlessly among the mountains, searching for his fellow disciples while using the Fire Jade Centipede to detect the presence of others. If he noticed someone else, he would avoid them in advance.

The Fire Jade Centipede can only sense spiritual beings with abundant fire elemental power, severely limiting its scope. On several occasions it has reacted, but without exception, powerful restrictions have blocked it.

Qin Sang repeatedly returned without success, but he was not discouraged.

Once again, he found the fire jade centipede becoming active and hurried to follow.

When he arrived there, Qin Sang's face suddenly lit up with surprise.

This time, the fire jade centipede actually entered an abandoned courtyard!carnation.One can only say, the world is full of wonders.Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!Perhaps, miracles will happen in the future.The chances are very slim.Is this to bury Tan...
