Ye Feng was surprised that the treasure chest opened so smoothly.

What’s even more surprising is that the new treasure chest clues are seamlessly connected.

It is still Linhai City, the old city area, but the location has changed to a deep courtyard!

The new purple treasure chest is of high quality, and you can get two things from it!

"Deep Courtyard..."

It is the place mentioned by the fat and thin people we met before.

Ye Feng didn’t think about this for the time being, but focused on the present.

The things that came out of this purple treasure chest are very useful.

"Shadow Trace" is a stealth technique. When performing it, one can restrain the breath to the greatest extent, and a layer of light and shadow will form around the body. This light and shadow will always imitate the nearby scenery, allowing the caster to blend into the environment and be difficult to detect.

Simply put, it is like a chameleon, with the ability to disguise and hide.

But it is more than just a simple visual deception. The light and shadows formed will affect perception and judgment.

The fifth-level stealth technique can even fool the Martial Sect master!

Only a powerful martial arts master could recognize the flaw.

For Ye Feng at the moment, it is enough.

Ye Feng tried to use it.

As he activated "Shadow Mystery", a layer of light and shadow immediately appeared on his body surface, completely wrapping up Ye Feng's figure.

In other words, no matter what you are wearing or even what weapons you hold in your hands, it will not affect you at all and will cover everything.

Otherwise, I would have to take off all my clothes every time I used Shadow Phantom.

Isn’t that nonsense and useless?

The fifth-level stealth technique is obviously not so bad.

Ye Feng tried to walk, and the light and shadow changed all the time according to the surrounding environment.

If you look at it from an outsider's perspective, you will find that no matter which angle you are at or what direction you look in, Ye Feng is integrated with the surrounding environment and is extremely hidden.

Keep on the road and look for treasure chests!

Every time Ye Feng looked for a treasure chest, he was extremely excited to see what good things would come out of it.

This time it is a fine treasure chest, with two unknown things waiting for Ye Feng.

Along the way, Ye Feng used the Shadow Phantom to move forward quickly on the main road, without having to choose a secluded path like he did just now.

Even if there were spies around, or some normal residents, they would not notice Ye Feng's presence.

…

Arrived deep in the old city.

A vast courtyard appeared in front of Ye Feng.

"Is this the Deep Courtyard?"

The purple arrow extends all the way into the building in front of you.

Remembering what the fat and thin men had said before, they would bring the people they caught here to report back.

Deep courtyard...what secrets are there?

Looking at this old-fashioned compound, one feels as if seeing a man-eating beast with its bloody mouth wide open.

"Go in and take a look!"

Now with Shadow Track, sneaking is very convenient.

Unless there is a powerful martial arts master inside, and he happens to encounter me while I am stealthing, it is absolutely impossible for him to discover my existence.

Before going in, Ye Feng let the Yunsang vine wrap around himself to form a layer of defensive armor.

In addition to providing a certain degree of protection, more importantly, it can fully cover the face and hide the facial features.

Even if there really is a Martial Honor Realm cultivator inside and he is discovered, Ye Feng is not afraid of exposing his appearance and causing unnecessary trouble.

As for safety, you can step on the soul soldiers and evacuate quickly.

Be careful, and you'll be fine.

Ye Feng walked around the outside of the yard for most of the way and finally came to the backyard.

"Hmm? What's that strange smell?" Ye Feng frowned slightly.

Looking over the courtyard wall, I could see smoke rising from inside. I wondered what was burning.

There is also a tall stone pillar nearby, like a telephone pole, with several cameras installed on it, monitoring all directions.

It is conceivable that someone is always staring at the screen, monitoring every move around.

If Ye Feng had not used the Shadow Mirage to hide his body, it would have been much more difficult for him to enter quietly.

Now, it’s simple.

Ye Feng exerted force on his feet and easily climbed over the wall and entered the backyard.

At this time, somewhere in the deep courtyard, there were light screens showing many images from surveillance cameras in various places.

Many people sat inside, staring at the screen intently.

The man in charge of the backyard saw that the scene was empty as before and there was nothing special. He yawned and continued to keep an eye on it.

The daily work is simple. I am responsible for monitoring a few places and reporting any situation in a timely manner.

Little did he know that someone had already slipped into the backyard right under his nose and was moving around openly under surveillance.

Ye Feng entered the backyard and looked around.

The backyard was quite large, with stone bricks paved on the ground and several large stoves built on it. Each one was pitch black and had traces of burning.

At this moment, one of them was burning something, and the flames were raging. The heat wave rushed over.

No wonder I could smell a strange smell outside the courtyard wall just now. It turned out that something was burning in the incinerator inside.

"One furnace is almost not enough. I guess I'll have to light another one later."

As the footsteps approached, a male voice sounded.

Ye Feng looked in the direction of the sound and saw two people, each dragging a corpse in their hands.

The corpse was as pale as paper, without a trace of blood or any sign of life. It was obvious that it had already died as it was dragged away by them.

"Yonghui University!"

Ye Feng saw that one of the corpses was wearing the school emblem of Yonghui University. He had taken a quick glance at this person when he was hunting sea beasts yesterday and had some impression of him. He was indeed a student of Yonghui University.

This person was one of the missing persons. He was captured and sent to the deep courtyard. No one knew what he had been through, but now he had become a cold corpse.

As for the other body, Ye Feng had no impression of it. There was no school badge on it. Perhaps it was a missing person from another group.

The two men dragged the corpse to the crematorium and threw it directly in. Immediately, sparks flew and crackling sounds were heard.

His movements were extremely skillful, and it was obvious that he did this kind of thing a lot.

After finishing their work, they left again, and they didn't notice that Ye Feng was watching them nearby.

"What on earth is this deep courtyard used for?!"

Ye Feng's face looked a little cold.

Without further delay, we continued on our way.

From time to time, patrol personnel would come in groups of two, patrolling along the established routes.

Surveillance, patrols... security has been taken to the extreme. Even without advance notice from the fat and thin men, just from these phenomena, plus the burning of the corpse, one can tell that there is a big problem.

Ye Feng ignored these patrol officers and decided not to alert the enemy for the time being.

Follow the purple arrows and continue forward.

Ye Feng had a hunch that the location of the purple treasure chest must be related to the missing person, and then everything would become clear.

Gradually, we arrived at the central area of ​​the deep courtyard.

As we get closer to this side, the security becomes tighter, the patrol personnel increase in number, and they move back and forth more frequently. The surveillance cameras above are all-round and have no blind spots, filming every corner.

“It’s right here!”
