n. There was a small hill beside the small pavilion, which blocked most of the sunlight, making the pavilion less sunny.After the ripples were helped to sit down, she sent everyone to stand around th...The next morning, the five of them went to see Mo Shangchen and expressed their willingness to team up with him to explore the Great Power Cave Mansion, hoping to learn more about it.

Mo Shangchen smiled and let the butler serve the spiritual tea, dismissing the irrelevant servants. Only then did he speak:

"Rest assured, you won't regret your decision today."

Then he vaguely talked about some information about this powerful cave, as if showing everyone a carrot dangling in front of them.

This Nascent Soul cultivator's cave dwelling was his burial ground. He had carefully chosen this place, and the cave housed all of his lifelong possessions, as evidenced by its preciousness. Only after his demise did the map to the cave spread, attracting a large number of cultivators seeking opportunities.

More than a hundred years have passed, and the person holding the map has never found the fallen cave of the Nascent Soul cultivator. Some say that the map is fake and was likely deliberately released by the Nascent Soul cultivator to confuse people.

The person who got the map was not giving up, so they sent it to an auction house for sale. Some people took a chance and bought it, but after going through several hands, the map returned to the auction house because no one could find the cave mansion according to the map. Everyone believed that the map was fake.

In the end, this map landed in the hands of an auction house. After several failed auctions, it was treated as trash.

And Mo Shangchen happened to find this map in a small shop. After much persuasion from the shopkeeper, he bought it for a hundred low-grade spirit stones.

When I first bought that map of the Great Grotto, it wasn't out of mere wishful thinking. I saw the clues hidden within its design.

That scroll depicting the Great Immortal's abode was made of a special material; it could only be seen in moonlight.

"Didn't so many people notice it before"

Du Yan chimed in.

"Someone must have discovered this, but even with the moonlight to help read the map, it needs to be done at a specific time. Otherwise, you wouldn't see anything, at most, just the name of this Nascent Soul cultivator."

Mo Shang smiled and said.

"According to what I heard from a traveler, you should have the real map in your hand."

"Yes, for safety's sake, I returned the map I bought back to its original place and told the shopkeeper it was a fake map. Then, I made an excuse and argued with him for a few words."

Mo Shangchen said with some self-satisfaction.

It's certainly safer that way. Who knows if the person who gets the map first will still be interested in it.

"The young master's actions are very cautious, it seems that cooperating with the young master is also our fate."

Last night, I gave him a small compliment.

Mo Shangchen heard this and was very pleased. He immediately said:

"I want to wait until I reach the Nascent Soul stage before exploring the cave mansion. It's also to avoid some trouble, hoping you all understand."

Of course, one should be extremely cautious when it comes to such opportunities.

Ripple smiled and said.

However, we only have five years. During this time, everyone should try their best to improve their cultivation. Once the time comes, we must set off, or we will miss the opportunity for the cave mansion to appear. If we miss it this time, we will have to wait another two hundred years.

Mo Shangchen continued to speak.

"This is easy, several of us are already in the late stage of the Golden Core. This time we also found the Nascent Soul fruit, as long as we have the assistance of the Nascent Soul Pill, it should be no problem to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."

In the evening, Lian Xi confidently spoke and even deliberately hinted that they had a Yuan Ying Fruit in their possession.

Mu Sheng and Ye Qing both frowned. Although Du Yan didn't say anything, she was also unhappy. Only Lian Yi was calm and collected, with no expression on her face.

"Is that so Then all the better. There's a Dan Pavilion in the city that takes commissions for refining medicine pills, and their success rate is quite high."

Mo Shangchen naturally knew who had the Yuan Yingguo in their hands, but it was something he had found out himself. Now that even Xi Ye had spoken about it, he might as well take this opportunity to help his own shop make a sale.

"Thank you, mister stranger, for your guidance. Please allow us a few days to prepare, and then we will go to the place you arranged to retreat."

Liàn Xī Yè immediately said.

Okay, no problem.

On the road of strangers, a smile blossomed as he responded. It seemed that even at dusk, the way was still agreeable.

Everyone was in high spirits. Since the matter had already been decided, they each prepared for it individually.

In the evening, he met Mo Shangchen alone. Mo Shangchen mainly wanted to ask him about Lian Yi's affairs.

In the evening, Lian Xi was on high alert, thinking that Mo Shangchen had also taken notice of Lian Yi. He casually glossed over how he knew Lian Yi, without providing any substantial information.

Even at the end of the night, Xi Ye specifically said:

"Fellow traveler, this Eliana should be from a prominent cultivation family. This time, she's out traveling incognito to hone her skills and has many protective items on her person. She even mentioned before that if something were to happen while exploring the cave dwelling, she could escape and have her elders come to help afterward."

After hearing this, Mo Shangchen's eyes flashed, and he then smiled and thanked her.

After sending Lian Xiye away, Mo Shangchen fell into deep thought. According to Lian Xiye's words, this Eileen Daoist's identity should not be simple. Being able to leave the cave of a Nascent Soul cultivator with such composure meant she must have a backer at least at the Divine Transformation stage or above. In that case, it seemed her suffering backlash wasn't without reason.

Generally, larger cultivation families will leave some life-saving measures on their beloved disciples. This includes concealing some of their aura. Otherwise, if they venture out alone and are spotted by demonic cultivators, they would easily become the nourishment for these demonic cultivators.

He might be backlashed because of the means left by the other party's elders, and also because Eileen herself has a very strong aura. Therefore, it seems that his exploration of the great power cave this time should go very smoothly.

The four from the Ripple Sect and Yuntian Sect went to Dan Pavilion, exchanging their Spirit Infant Fruits for a top-grade Spirit Infant Pill. Then, they began their closed-door cultivation to breakthrough to the Spirit Infant stage at the place arranged by Mo Shangchen.

After the ripples went into seclusion, she didn't cultivate. This was on someone else's territory, and as a demon cultivator, she didn't want to reveal her aura while cultivating, lest she be hunted by cultivators. So she began drawing talismans, paying attention to Lian Xiye's movements at all times while doing so.

"Dodo chose to station herself on the periphery of the Gathering Spirit Array. As Lian Xi was about to enter meditation under the cover of night, Dodo unfurled her leaves and blossoms, greedily absorbing spiritual energy. She refused to allow the other party to ascend to the Yuan Ying stage in the short term. If the other party discovered Dodo's hidden Linggen (spirit root), it would be even more troublesome for her master to complete his mission."

Don't look at how Lian Ri is drawing, she's actually thinking about how to get rid of the hidden spirit roots of Lian Xi Ye. Sending Duo Duo to intercept Lian Xi Ye's spiritual energy is only treating the symptoms, not the root cause. If it goes on for too long, the other party will definitely notice. If Duo Duo gets exposed, it wouldn't be good.

She hasn't found a better way yet, but this matter took a turn for the better shortly after. The turn of events surprisingly occurred at the City Lord's Mansion.

Ripple was training with the cyclone that day when Dodo suddenly dashed back to report:

"Master, a woman brought a young girl to the City Lord's Mansion to claim kinship, saying that the child is your heir."

"Oh Is that so I remember Mo Shangchen saying his father was in seclusion. Who is handling this"

The butler is receiving guests, Mo Shangchen has also left, and the other three children of the lord haven't shown up.

"Go check out the commotion, and let me know if you hear anything."st the leaves Doudou swung out and the roots that coiled around it.One person controlled the wind, the other wielded several spatial blades, engaging in battle with Duo Duo.The moment the ripple wrapp...
