Chapter 57 Suppressing the Beasts
Qilin Cliff, though called a cliff, is actually a vast plateau.
Shi Zhao looked around and couldn't help but sigh. Even if this place had nothing to do with Qilin, it was bound to give birth to extraordinary fortune.
The warship landed on a rock that had flown from the cliff edge, and people came to greet it.
Such a treasure land was naturally occupied by the major ancient divine mountain forces long ago. Demon Spirit Lake is the closest and occupies more, but it cannot monopolize it.
In short, this is a huge public medicinal garden.
Even though it has long been occupied, there are still many dangerous places on Qilin Cliff that are difficult to explore. An old venerable one once tried to make a last stand before he died, but he never appeared again.
Therefore, some people still believe that this place is related to the Qilin.
When Shi Yi broke through to the Cave Heaven Realm, he was baptized here. Later, he unexpectedly used his double pupils to see through the illusion and found the gate to life in a dangerous place, which may open some kind of secret treasure.
Unfortunately, the incident caused quite a stir and was discovered by other forces. Demon Spirit Lake had no choice but to share the news, which led to the gathering of all the major sacred mountains.
"There's a mysterious field on Qilin Cliff, making it difficult for warships to fly through the air," someone said.
The group changed their mounts, with Shi Zhao and Shi Yi sharing a ride, which drew the attention of many onlookers.
Everyone knew that the key to exploring the secret realm was the ability of the Double Pupil to see through illusions; without the Double Pupil's guidance, everything would be in vain.
The two had been getting close before, and I thought he was a follower or servant, but now it seems that they are not; their relationship is far too intimate.
The demonic spiders that had transformed into human form in the Demon Spirit Lake had cold, sinister eyes. They had already learned about the complicated relationship between Shi Zhao and Shi Yi from Shi Ziteng, and naturally did not want to see the two of them getting so close. Those with double pupils should be under their control.
Of course, they wouldn't take the initiative to act, lest they offend Shi Yi.
"We've arrived!" The group stopped outside a seemingly ordinary stone forest.
All the mounts became restless, as if some terrible monster was lurking here. If they hadn't been trained, they probably would have turned around and run away long ago.
Shi Zhao could feel that as he moved forward, an inexplicable pressure gradually spread out. It was not domineering, but rather gentle, but the pressure he felt was getting greater and greater.
"This place used to be shrouded in mist, but now it's gone. It's really something special; perhaps something extraordinary is hidden deep within."
"The pressure is getting greater and greater. Just as I guessed, although I am not suppressing my cultivation level, only those with a more solid foundation can go further."
Many people realize that what is being compared here is relative strength at the same level.
For example, those who have greater strength and more caves opened in the Blood Transformation Realm can withstand greater pressure, which tests their so-called foundation.
Clearly, the pure-blooded beings from the ancient sacred mountain have a significant advantage here.
After passing through the stone forest, they entered a valley. Only pure-blooded beings and the siblings Shi Zhao and Shi Yi were left who could reach this place.
It's not surprising that Shi Yi got to this point, since he was the one who discovered this place, but Shi Zhao's calm and composed demeanor is quite surprising.
"Little Yunxi, why are you looking at me like that?" Shi Zhao asked with a smile.
"I'm starting to wonder if you're even one of our Celestial Race, sister," said the girl Yunxi, her eyes sparkling as she looked at her.
Shi Zhao patted her head and smiled without saying a word.
Next, it was Shi Yi's turn to perform. His double pupils shone brightly, revealing the order of the Great Dao and the location of the incomplete magic array. He then led the group into the deepest part of the valley.
Beside a flat boulder, half of a deep cave entrance was revealed, emanating wisps of chaotic energy, and even more so, an incredibly dense spiritual energy gushed out.
Taking a deep breath here feels like ascending to heaven, leaving you feeling light and healthy.
Moreover, in the crevice between the cave entrance and the boulder, grows a short, precious tree covered with bright red fruit, resembling a vermilion fruit, but with qilin patterns on it.
"This place really is related to the Qilin; I sensed that peaceful aura."
"That's right, the secret treasure left behind by the Qilin must be in that ancient cave!"
Everyone's eyes turned red as they charged forward, especially the pure-blooded beings with higher cultivation levels, who were at the very front.
Shi Yi paused, glanced sideways, and shook his head almost imperceptibly.
Shi Zhao's senses were sharp, his divine sense reacted, and his spiritual eye pierced through the thin mist of chaos. A mocking smile appeared on his lips.
"boom--!"
Purple flames roared out of the ancient cave, instantly burning the two middle-aged men at the forefront to ashes, without even having time to revert to their original forms.
Those who lagged slightly behind were also in trouble, their bodies stained with strange purple flames that could not be extinguished by water or fire, making it difficult for them to maintain their human form.
They reverted to their original forms, screaming and in extreme pain. Some even tried to cut off their own flesh to save their lives, but to no avail. This fire would scorch even their souls if they were touched by it.
The pureblooded creatures had no choice but to turn back and rush out of the valley to seek help, otherwise they would be burned alive and their bodies and souls would be destroyed!
A gust of wind blew by, and the hearts of the remaining group of teenagers in the valley suddenly turned icy cold.
"Do...do we still have to go in?" A little silver-haired girl trembled.
"Go, why wouldn't we go? The greatest danger has passed!" A blue-haired youth with sinister eyes and a cold smile appeared on his lips. He said, "But there seem to be two unrelated humans here who want to get their hands on the Qilin's secret treasure."
These words immediately drew responses from several people, all of whom were pure-blooded beings who were quite hostile to the human race. They suddenly attacked at the same time, their spearheads aimed directly at Shi Zhao and Shi Yi.
Shi Zhao had already sensed something was amiss. He immediately pushed aside the little girls beside him, then summoned the Xuan Turtle Shield to block Shi Yi in front of him, before finally turning to deal with the various magical techniques attacking him.
She opened up the ten grottoes, containing the power of spiritual transformation, and then transformed into a blazing ball of light, making it difficult for everyone to open their eyes.
"What? Ten Heavenly Caves!"
Everyone gasped in surprise, even the young girl Yunxi was shocked, her mouth gaped open, her bright eyes sparkling with a fiery light as she stared intently at that spot.
It should be noted that even in the ancient sacred mountains, the Ten Heavenly Caves are extremely rare, and it may not appear even once every few generations.
Shi Zhao clapped his left hand, as if he were pushing the sun, moon and stars forward, and the heavens seemed to collapse a corner, trying to suppress everything.
Countless runes flashed in her right hand, and various rays of light danced down together, causing ten thousand swords to ring out in unison.
This sight was extremely terrifying. It was clearly just a palm, yet endless light flew out from its palm, transforming into countless divine swords that illuminated the sky.
Thousands of swords swirled and slashed together, their boundless sword energy tearing everything apart!
The valley was filled with pure-blooded beings with powerful bodies, but they all felt a bone-chilling killing intent. Even those who hadn't made a move or been targeted felt their bodies begin to bleed.
The various clans' magical techniques and innate abilities that had attacked earlier were instantly shattered, and the magical artifacts that were unleashed were forcibly suppressed and knocked down.
For a moment, everyone trembled and stared at her in disbelief.
It should be noted that among the pure-blooded beings who made the move, there were quite a few who had stepped into the Spirit Transformation Realm, such as Jin Yunteng, the most outstanding genius from the Ancient Peng Mountain.
He had traveled among the sacred mountains and had never been defeated since his birth.
"Go!" Jin Yunteng's expression changed drastically, and he rushed into the ancient cave.
Those who hadn't yet made a move also instinctively ran inside, and even Yunxi was dragged away by her friends.
There was no way around it; that woman outside was too ruthless.
They are still young, not even adults yet, and we don't want to fight them to the death.
"We just need to avoid her for now and wait for the elders of the clan to suppress her!" Many people thought so.
But apart from Jin Yunteng, everyone else who made a move was caught by Shi Zhao and beaten back to their original forms, lying on the ground.
One of the blue phoenixes received special treatment; its bones were shattered, and it couldn't help but groan in agony, spitting blood from its mouth and nose. Its face made intimate contact with the ground, and it was deformed from the impact.
Shi Zhao flashed a bright smile, his silver teeth gleaming, and pointed to himself, saying, "Who said the greatest danger was over? Aren't I still here?"
At that moment, the field of energy in the valley suddenly changed.
An overwhelming pressure descended, sealing off the entire valley. Wisps of purple flames shot out from the cracks in the rocks, and the temperature instantly soared.
"There's no fire in the cave." Shi Yi scanned his surroundings with his double pupils, never expecting that the only safe place in the end would be the most dangerous place at the beginning.
"Hurry up and go in. Inside is a secret little world, full of wonders." Shi Zhao pushed him into the cave, and also kicked a few pure-blooded creatures in along with him.
"Help me put these away, I'll save them to make a killing off those ancient sacred mountains."
Upon hearing this, Shi Yi's lips twitched, but he didn't ask any further questions and simply did as instructed.
