Chapter 186: Insights on Breaking the Seal

imposing.His face was full of frost, he didn't look at Qilong, and stared intently at the direction Qin Sang fled. He already knew the tragic end of his fourth junior brother.But that strange force h...Shaohua, Shanxi, southwest.

A tranquil expanse of water stretched in every direction, the horizon a single line where sky met water. As far as the eye could see, there wasn't even a small island, making the scene eerily desolate.

A gentle breeze rustled through the air, and the water rippled gently. This stretch of water seemed quite calm and posed no apparent danger.

At that moment, a ripple invisible to the naked eye suddenly appeared above the water surface. Following this, three figures materialized out of thin air – they were Qin Sang and the two sisters of the Yue family who had been silently lurking in the shadows.

"Senior Qin, the cave dwelling of Cang Li Zhenren is right below us."

Le Xing and Le Rou pointed to a spot in the water, whispering excitedly.

They made the deal under Granny Jing's witness, the tree root stayed at the secret shop, Qin Sang only needed to crack the restrictions of Cang Li's real person's cave abode, and the item would be his.

Qin Sang looked around, but there wasn't an island within his sight, nor even for hundreds of miles in every direction. It was incredibly remote. He tried using his divine sense to probe the depth, but the water was too deep; he couldn't reach the bottom.

Three people activated the Water Escape technique, entering the water and diving straight to the bottom. The sisters of the Le family led the way, they must have come here many times before and were very familiar with this place.

Finally, I saw the bottom of the lake. The silt was clear, the aquatic plants were lush, and fish and shrimp were swimming among them, looking like a peaceful Taohuayuan.

Qin Sang opened his divine sense and discovered that some demon beasts were lurking in the depths of the sand. Their strength was very weak, and even if they were killed, there was no value. However, some spirit herbs grew between the cracks of the stones, thriving well. For cultivators with low realms, harvesting them every once in a while could also yield a good harvest.

A cultivator of slightly stronger abilities wouldn't linger in such a barren place, let alone imagine that there would be a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator's cave here. Chang Li Zhenren truly found a good place.

"Is Chang Li Zhenren's cave dwelling right here"

Qin Sang stood on a black stone at the bottom of the water, and asked the Le sisters in confusion.

Before them, the underwater terrain resembled a vast hilly region, with mounds of varying sizes scattered everywhere. Some were covered in aquatic plants, while others were bare and exposed. The entire water area was like this, lacking deep trenches or treacherous peaks; it appeared utterly ordinary.

Qin Sang circled the hilly area, using his divine sense to search for any abnormalities. He searched for a long time but found nothing unusual, let alone any trace of a cave dwelling.

"The Yue sisters looked at each other and smiled, explaining: "Senior Qin, the reason we couldn't see Cang Li's real person's cave was because of the terrain here. There is a natural illusion array that not only concealed Cang Li's real person's cave but also hid the spiritual vein very well. My sisters were collecting medicine nearby and accidentally stumbled into the illusion array before discovering this secret. Otherwise, Cang Li's real person's cave would have already fallen into someone else's hands long ago. The illusion array is not easy to find, but it's not difficult to crack. Just follow the correct path, and you can go in. Senior Qin, please follow me."

Qin Sang marveled. There were countless wonders between heaven and earth. Naturally formed illusionary arrays weren't uncommon, but one that happened to form a perfect dwelling was truly a marvel of creation.

Saying that, Le Xing said somewhat bashfully, "Senior Qin, my sister and I have an unreasonable request. When you are breaking the restrictions, within permissible circumstances, could you please not destroy this illusionary formation"

Qin Sang immediately understood Le Xing's intention.

The Yue family sisters certainly didn't have the wealth or connections to buy a Xuanming Tortoise Shell Formation. This illusionary formation might be the only barrier for their future cave dwelling, and Qin Sang wouldn't be so unkind as to not help with something within his capabilities.

Upon seeing Qin Sang's agreement, the two sisters excitedly led the way ahead. Qin Sang followed behind, the figures of the three people flashing continuously until they reached the core area of the hills and landed on the top of a grassy hill.

The Yue sisters stepped on solid ground and turned to say, "Senior Qin, please walk with us. Don't use your escape technique, and don't take a wrong step. This natural illusion array is ever-changing and unpredictable. If you accidentally activate the array, you might get trapped inside and it would take ages to get out."

Qin Sang readily accepted the good advice. Though Jade Buddha could help him avoid the maze, it was helpless against illusions.

The Lejia sisters took a step forward, and their figures instantly vanished into thin air.

Qin Sang urged the Heaven Star Tears to protect him, secretly on guard, and followed closely behind. After taking a step, the scene before him instantly changed. The surrounding terrain was still hilly, but the lake around them had vanished. Their vision was blocked by a thick fog, allowing them to see only a distance of less than a zhang ahead.

The sisters of the Le family were just waiting for him ahead. Seeing Qin Sang enter, they let out a sigh of relief, nodded at him, and continued forward.

Thus, traversing through the mists and haze, turning left and right, after a while, the thick fog suddenly dispersed to both sides. In the center of the mist, a bare hill appeared in sight.

Stepping inside, you are immediately enveloped in a rich spiritual energy. It's not much different from the Spirit Dragon Island held by the Liu brothers. Below, there is indeed a spirit vein, completely concealed by an illusionary formation, with not a single trace leaking out.

The hills were covered in white stones, not a single blade of grass could be found, it was incredibly barren. At the foot of the hills, there was a simple stone door. It had a rudimentary frame made of stones, and on top, in elegant script, were the two characters " Cang Li". There were no other decorations, it clearly looked like a hermit's cave.

Encircling the hills, a veil of azure water marks the highlight of this journey.

"Senior Qin, this water curtain is the barrier of this cave abode. Once triggered, there will be a deluge of ice blades and water arrows attacking. The greater the power used to break the barrier, the fiercer the counter-attack. Senior, please be careful," Le Xing seemed to have recalled the danger he had encountered before, his face slightly pale.

Qin Sang nodded slightly, her eyes fixed on the water curtain. She stared for a long time but couldn't see anything remarkable.

Among Qing Ting's belongings was a record of her insights on formation restrictions. When Qin Sang returned the relics to the Qing Ting family, he made a copy of the insights but never had time to study them.

He hadn't even had time to look over his notes, and he still had so much left undone. The gold thread cedar wood was yet to be melted into the ebony sword, and the Thousand Mechanisms Sword Formation obtained from Wu Yue Sheng lay dormant in his pouch.

Before coming, Qin Sang had made up his mind. If the restriction was too strong, he would ask Wen Shixiong and the others for help. If the restriction was not so powerful, he would use it to ponder this experience, killing two birds with one stone.

The Le sisters were weak and unable to probe the full power of the restriction. Qin Sang reached out and drew forth the Five Elements Breaking Formation Sword, which whistled through the air. Then, he took out a transparent fire dome from his pouch and covered the Le sisters with it.

This hood is called the Divine Fire Hood. Qin Sang found it among the relics of a man on Baiyun Mountain. The Divine Fire Hood is a very common protective magic weapon with decent power. It's not difficult to make, and the required spiritual materials are not expensive, making it popular among independent cultivators.

To protect the sisters and herself, Qin Sang reached out and struck with five sword beams that simultaneously charged at the prohibition. for either to gain any real advantage. After a big battle, they'll both withdraw, feeling unsatisfied.However, the fighting of the two baby spirits was not without effect.Within their respective camp...
