Closing the Light Splitting Sword Technique, Ye Feng appeared contemplative and did not rush to examine the other two manuals.
"The sword technique emphasizes speed, precision, and lethality. In martial arts, speed is paramount. This Light Splitting Sword Technique is quite suitable for me. If I could find a Mystic-Level Martial Technique to complement this sword technique, it would be even more perfect."
However, things do not always go as one wishes. When Ye Feng eagerly picked up the other two Martial Techniques, he felt somewhat disappointed. Shaking his head, he tossed them into the cauldron.
Although these two Martial Techniques were also Mystic-Level Combat Techniques, they were both of low quality and consisted of palm techniques and fist techniques, which did not offer much help to him at the moment.
The Yellow Rank Superior Thunder Three Styles had already been cultivated to perfection in the Divine Realm. Coupled with his powerful Thunder Elemental Power, it was sufficient to unleash a force comparable to low-grade Mystic-Level Martial Techniques.
Understanding the principle of not overextending oneself, Ye Feng knew that human energy is limited. Although he had exceptional comprehension abilities, there was no need to waste time and energy on Martial Techniques that would not significantly enhance his strength. It would be better to exchange these two Martial Technique manuals for some Contribution Points at the Sect.
The other two iron boxes contained a variety of herbs. Ye Feng was not familiar with Alchemy, but he had a Pharmaceutical Compendium in hand, which might come in handy someday. Even if he did not practice Alchemy himself, these herbs could fetch a good price at an auction.
A master like Xuan Yue Celestial Master would naturally collect valuable items. The herbs in the iron boxes were lustrous and retained their medicinal fragrance even after many years. The rich Vital Energy flowed among them, forming a misty white vapor within the small iron boxes that was refreshing to inhale.
"It seems that these iron boxes for storing herbs are not ordinary items; they can preserve these herbs so well." After pondering for a moment, Ye Feng decided to directly store the two iron boxes containing the herbs inside the Cauldron.
The Four Elemental Universe Cauldron could change size; when minimized to its smallest form, it was only as big as a fingernail, making it very convenient to carry around.
Brushing off the dust from his clothes, Ye Feng glanced back at the vividly lifelike Fire Phoenix Statue with a sigh before continuing forward.
There were no dangers along the way. Occasionally, one or two Demon Spirits would dart out but were easily dealt with by Ye Feng. For him, who possessed strong Soul Thought, solitary Demon Spirits posed no threat whatsoever.
"Although these Demon Spirits are weak, if what Ice Phoenix Illusion said is true and they swarm out at night to form a Demon Tide, it could become difficult to handle. Moreover, Xiao Bing and Ruo Xue are also within this Sealed Land; their Soul Thoughts are not strong. If they encounter these intangible beings, it might be quite troublesome. I should reunite with them as soon as possible!"
Thinking of this, Ye Feng quickened his pace without any hesitation. The surge of lightning energy around him made the lone Demon Spirit, which initially intended to cause trouble, retreat far away.
The corridor soon reached its end again, but this time it was different from the previous exit. Ahead was an open space of about ten square meters, connecting to two other corridors, where the three branching paths converged.
"Three branching paths. Could it be that the three of us took different routes? I wonder if they encountered the Ice Fire Phoenix statue." What surprised Ye Feng the most was that on the dusty ground, two clear footprints could be seen extending from the two side corridors, indicating that someone had arrived here before him.
In front of the open space, a stone door stood ajar, revealing darkness within. A mysterious force obscured Ye Feng's vision; no matter how he urged his spiritual energy, he could not see what lay beyond the stone door.
"These two footprints must belong to Xiao Bing and Ruo Xue. They actually arrived here before me!"
A faint scent of powder lingered in the air, indicating that Xiao Bing and Ruo Xue had just left this place.
As he summoned the Vitality Shield, Ye Feng formed a hand seal, causing a palm-sized silver Light Shield to spin around him continuously.
Even though he knew the two girls were nearby, Ye Feng dared not let his guard down. The mysterious intuition of a cultivator warned him that there seemed to be unpredictable dangers hidden in the darkness ahead.
With the shield activated, Ye Feng let out a soft shout and finally stopped hesitating. A burst of purple lightning erupted from him as he swiftly dashed into the door.
The moment he passed through the stone door, Ye Feng felt as if the world was spinning, and his mind became hazy.
"Another Teleportation Array?" Ye Feng was alarmed; the scene was almost identical to when he entered Seal Canyon.
As soon as the teleportation ended, Ye Feng sensed danger. A flash of blade light stood out sharply in the darkness, slicing toward him with incredible speed from above.
"Looking for death!"
Ye Feng did not raise his head. The Azure Dragon Sword behind him let out a soft hum and unsheathed itself, falling into his hand.
With a slight flick of his wrist, he shattered the blade light with a single stroke, and brilliant sword flowers instantly bloomed.
Puff!
The long sword sliced through flesh, producing a muffled sound as it got stuck on a bone joint.
"How could there be someone in the Sealed Land?!" Ye Feng was initially shocked. The ability to wield a blade and produce blade light indicated that someone was secretly attacking him. However, he was clearly inside Seal Canyon, where outsiders could not enter. Moreover, the opponent's bones were surprisingly tough; even with immense force combined with the cutting power of a profound-grade sword, he couldn't sever the opponent's bones with one strike.
As he infused spiritual energy into his eyes to see the situation clearly, Ye Feng couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine and gasped in surprise.
The one who ambushed him was indeed not some beast; its form and appearance could barely be described as "human."
He saw that it wore a tattered Dao Robe, most of its body exposed. Its skin appeared translucent, thin as a cicada's wing, allowing him to see the flowing crimson blood and faint blue veins beneath.
At that moment, Ye Feng's Azure Dragon Sword had pierced into this "human's" chest, blood gushing from the wound. Beneath the rolled muscles lay a segment of bone as clear as jade blocking the sword tip.
"What exactly are you?" Ye Feng withdrew his sword and retreated, increasing the distance between them. His brow furrowed tightly as his gaze remained fixed on the "strange person."
"Ah... oh..." The strange person struggled to open its thin lips; its throat moved but failed to produce any coherent sound.
Although the creature was injured and bleeding profusely, it had no intention of counterattacking Ye Feng. It raised its tattered long knife with difficulty, as if trying to say something.
Ye Feng held his breath, focusing intently as his Soul Thought surged forth, probing back and forth over the creature. He discovered that the creature's cultivation level was only around the Yuan Wu Realm Sixth Level.
"Yuan Wu Realm Sixth Level, how can its physical body be so strong?"
The creature's face was difficult to discern due to its transparent skin and dense blood vessels, but its eyes showed immense urgency. It seemed to disregard the wound on its chest and continued to gesture frantically.
"Have you seen two young women?" Ye Feng pondered for a moment before asking.
"Oh oh oh!" The Robe-Wearing Monster suddenly paused, forcing a smile and nodding repeatedly at Ye Feng. Beneath its transparent skin, the facial muscles twisted together in a disturbing manner.
"Where are they now? Can you take me to them?" Ye Feng had initially planned to search for them himself, but the surroundings were desolate and darkness seemed to be everywhere. Even with his spiritual energy infused, his vision could only extend about twenty meters. The distant blackness was thick like ink, making it impossible to see clearly.
The Robe-Wearing Monster waved its long knife and beckoned to Ye Feng before turning and running in a certain direction.
Ye Feng hesitated slightly, worried that the creature might lead him into a trap. However, he had no clues about the two women. If he continued to wander aimlessly like a headless fly, he had no idea when he would find anything. Moreover, in such a strange and mysterious place, the longer the three of them separated, the greater the risk of danger.
"I can only take a gamble!" With a Wind Treading Step, Ye Feng transformed into a wisp of green smoke and easily caught up with the leading Robe-Wearing Monster.
As he followed the Robe-Wearing Monster at a frantic pace, Ye Feng remained vigilant. Infusing his spiritual energy allowed his silver pupils to scan the surroundings, outlining visible objects in his mind while clearly grasping the entire route they were taking.
If the creature were to turn hostile or if any insurmountable danger appeared ahead, Ye Feng could easily escape along the same path.
As he ran swiftly, the scenery on both sides receded rapidly, but Ye Feng was still able to discern the general appearance of these sights.
"With flying eaves and towering walls, it seems to be a group of considerable-sized palaces!"
Ye Feng had already noticed that the ground was paved with jade-green stones, wide and flat. Thinking of the palace complex on either side of the street, a somewhat absurd idea popped into his mind.
"Could this be the celestial sect where Xuan Yue Celestial Master once resided?"
This absurd thought was ultimately confirmed.
The Robe-Wearing Monster stopped in front of a side hall, breathing heavily, and pointed at the vermilion door.
Ye Feng frowned and looked over. The side hall stood tall in the boundless darkness; although slightly dilapidated, it still retained an imposing grandeur. Above the Hall Door hung a purple-gold wooden plaque inscribed with the words "Scripture Pavilion," elegantly carved, giving off a heavy feeling as if mountains were pressing down from afar.
"Scripture Pavilion? Could it really be Xuan Yue Celestial Master's Sect?"
Muttering to himself, Ye Feng turned to the Robe-Wearing Monster beside him and asked, "Are they inside?"
The strange figure nodded and took the lead in pushing open the large door, stepping into the Scripture Pavilion.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Feng frowned and followed closely behind.
Surrounded by an eerie silence, darkness seeped in everywhere, creating an unsettling atmosphere. The two walked through a winding corridor, passed a solemn grand hall, navigated around a decaying garden, and finally stopped in front of a room illuminated by light.
The faint light flickered through the doors and windows, casting a soft glow. A few snippets of conversation could be heard from inside the room, though they were not entirely clear. However, Ye Feng could vaguely discern that it was indeed the voices of Ning Ruoxue and Xiao Bing. In addition, there seemed to be an elderly man's voice, slightly hoarse and weathered.
"It seems there are others in the room, but from their voices, they don't appear to be in any danger," Ye Feng thought, growing more curious. Just as he was about to push the door open, the Robe-Wearing Monster shook his head and stepped forward to knock lightly on the door with the hilt of his knife.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
The conversation inside the room abruptly ceased. After a moment, another robust Robe-Wearing Monster opened the door slightly and peeked out, spotting Ye Feng and the Knife-Wielding Figure beside him.
"Ah oh oh!" The Knife-Wielding Figure gestured a few times, pointing at Ye Feng and then at the interior of the room.
Just as Ye Feng was about to speak, two excited voices rang out from within.
"Brother Ye!"
"Ye Shidi?"
Ning Ruoxue and Xiao Bing had spotted Ye Feng outside the door and could no longer contain their excitement as they pushed the door open and rushed towards him.
