Chapter 115: Xiao Fan, How Did You Get In Here?

Chapter 115: Xiao Fan, How Did You Get In Here?

Led by Shen Mo, the group moved in a different direction.

This passage was narrow and dark, with not a single trace of light.

Qin Feng had previously mentioned that there was an invisible killing array here.

However, just as Shen Mo had said, the killing array here was already broken, having exhausted its energy.

This was originally meant to be Murong Yue's opportunity.

When Murong Yue passed through here, it just so happened that the killing array had run out of energy.

As a result, Shen Mo knew this place was safe.

Shen Mo walked at the front, striding through confidently.

Following closely behind, Song Chaofeng, Elder Li, and the others had no doubts and immediately kept up.

It wasn't until they had passed through safely that Qin Feng truly relaxed.

The way he looked at Shen Mo also changed.

No matter how you looked at it, Shen Mo was younger than them.

Being younger meant less experience and knowledge.

Even if Shen Mo had extraordinary potential.

Even the Verdant Vine Sect had hinted that the Bao Yu Sect should cooperate with the Qing Xuan Sect.

But Qin Feng had always somewhat underestimated Shen Mo.

Now, he suppressed these thoughts.

He believed that Shen Mo must also have considerable expertise in formations.

Following Shen Mo couldn't be wrong.

After passing through the passage, Shen Mo arrived in front of the third stone chamber of the Heavenly Order.

He tossed a stone far ahead.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Dozens of golden sword blades suddenly appeared, instantly slicing the stone into countless pieces.

Song Chaofeng and the others all gasped.

The power of this formation was terrifying.

Moreover, it showed no signs of weakening.

It was clear that the spirit stones powering it were still very abundant.

To deal with such a formation, there was only one way—charge through it head-on!

Song Chaofeng, Qin Feng, and the others all looked at Shen Mo.

But Shen Mo made no move; instead, he closed his eyes and waited quietly.

Seeing this, Song Chaofeng and Elder Li did not raise any objections and also waited quietly.

Qin Feng, on the other hand, was puzzled, his eyes darting around, unable to understand what Shen Mo was thinking.

Before long, the sound of something falling suddenly came from above.

This sound immediately drew everyone's attention.

Shen Mo thought to himself, "Finally, it's here."

Then, a figure fell to the ground with a thud.

Everyone except Shen Mo was startled.

When they saw who it was, they were momentarily stunned.

"Xiao Fan, how did you get in here?" Song Chaofeng asked in confusion.

Xiao Fan was equally baffled.

Why are there so many Core Formation cultivators waiting for me here?

He had no choice but to explain in detail how he had accidentally discovered another entrance.

The group listened in astonishment.

Xiao Fan had unintentionally found another entrance and had directly arrived at the upper level, where the most valuable treasures were located.

This guy's luck was incredible.

Shen Mo said calmly, "The Alchemy King's Cave Mansion is too dangerous. Stay close to us."

Xiao Fan cursed inwardly, knowing that with so many Core Formation cultivators around, he wouldn't end up with any treasures.

But he didn't dare voice this thought and could only say, "Yes, thank you, Young Sect Master."

Just then, a crisp cracking sound suddenly came from the front.

It was as if something had shattered all of a sudden.

Song Chaofeng and the others were instantly stunned.

This sound was like the sound of a spirit stone suddenly breaking.

Shen Mo pondered for a moment and then casually tossed another stone forward.

This time, only one golden sword blade appeared.

Moreover, its appearance was sluggish, and its surface was dull, like an elderly person nearing the end of life.

Compared to the dozens of gleaming sword blades from earlier, the difference was enormous.

The reason for this sudden change was quite simple—the energy from the spirit stones was almost depleted.

Song Chaofeng, Qin Feng, and Elder Li all widened their eyes in disbelief.

Qin Feng muttered, "Damn, is that even possible?"

"This level of formation can already be dealt with," Shen Mo replied casually.

He strode confidently into the third stone chamber of the Heavenly Order.

The golden sword blades reappeared, swiftly slashing toward Shen Mo.

With a wave of his hand, a large bronze door, condensed from spiritual energy, materialized beside him.

Clang!

The golden sword blades struck the door but were immediately deflected.

This was none other than the low-tier Earth-rank defensive martial skill, the Four Profound Doors, which Shen Mo had obtained earlier.

If he had gathered four bronze doors to block attacks from one direction, it might have even withstood the onslaught of those dozen golden sword blades.

However, Shen Mo didn't want to take any risks, so he waited for Xiao Fan to appear and for the golden sword formation to malfunction before taking action.

After Shen Mo entered the third stone chamber, the others followed suit.

The chamber was quite spacious, with a length, width, and height exceeding six zhang, and it was filled with many stone shelves.

Various medicinal pills were placed on the stone shelves.

There were Body Refining Pills, Qi Condensing Pills, and Foundation Stabilizing Pills.

Additionally, there were even stronger pills like the Great Foundation Stabilizing Pills and Pure Essence Foundation Stabilizing Pills.

However, there were only three pitiful bottles of Essence Boosting Pills, suitable for Core Formation cultivators.

"Deputy Sect Master Qin, how about we temporarily store these treasures with me and distribute them once we leave?" Shen Mo asked.

Qin Feng didn't dare to refuse. Among the cultivators present, only he was from the Storm Rain Sect, while the rest were all from the Qing Xuan Sect.

He quickly nodded. "I have no objections."

Shen Mo nodded in satisfaction.

Dealing with smart people is always simple.

Shen Mo swiftly swept all the medicinal pills into his storage ring.

He had two storage rings: one was a low-grade ring given to him by Murong Yue, and the other was a high-grade ring he obtained from the Alchemy King's Cave Mansion in Coldwater Ravine.

So, his storage space was vast and had never been filled.

Storing these medicinal pills was more than easy.

Afterward, Shen Mo discovered a hidden compartment behind one of the stone shelves. Inside were two thick, purple-black incense sticks, each as thick as a baby's arm.

Although they were not lit, they still emitted a faint, calming fragrance.

A slight sniff brought peace to the mind, with no trace of aggression or bloodlust.

Shen Mo quickly put them away.

These were none other than Soul-Calming Incense sticks.

Shen Mo said nonchalantly, "Let's go to the next stone chamber."

The entrance to the fourth stone chamber of the Heavenly Order was not guarded by any formation.

Inside, the treasures stored were not medicinal pills but spiritual weapons.

There were a total of twenty-five spiritual weapons in the chamber, half of which were Profound-rank.

Shen Mo glanced around and shook his head slightly.

He had plenty of spiritual weapons, all of which, except for the Thunderclap Sword, were Earth-rank.

These spiritual weapons couldn't even compare to the Thunderclap Sword, so naturally, he wasn't interested.

However, not being interested didn't mean he would leave them behind.

Shen Mo still swept them all into his storage ring.

Even if you don't need them, it's better to have them!

Afterward, he discovered another hidden compartment containing a set of tattered formation flags.

This hidden compartment was deeply concealed; without some effort, it would have been impossible to find.

Inside was none other than the Earth-rank formation, the Five Ghosts Seize Life Formation!

Shen Mo's consecutive discoveries of hidden compartments left Song Chaofeng and the others in awe.

"Young Sect Master has a keen eye; we would have missed these treasures without him," Song Chaofeng marveled.

Elder Li nodded repeatedly, "Indeed, if not for the Young Sect Master, we would have overlooked two valuable items."

Xiao Fan felt displeased.

He thought to himself, I actually noticed them too, but I just didn't mention it.

"Let's move on and check out the other stone chambers," Shen Mo said, waving his hand.

The group left the fourth stone chamber of the Heavenly Order and continued down the dim passageway.

After walking for a while, they suddenly encountered a withered corpse in the passage ahead.

All its blood and vitality had been drained.

Everyone was struck with horror.

Such a death was too terrifying!

At that moment, Shen Mo noticed that Xiao Fan had paused and was looking to the right, as if he had sensed something.
