"It forms a natural defensive formation around it, trapping any nearby creatures and turning them into food."

Chen Yang explained lightly, his tone calm, as if he was just talking about a very ordinary thing.

Li Qingge felt her scalp tingle slightly when she heard this. She had only heard the name of this magical herb before.

But I have never seen them before, and I didn't know they had such strange habits.

"Mr. Chen, you know so much! How do you know all this?"

Li Qingge blinked her big eyes, her tone full of admiration.

Chen Yang smiled slightly, casually broke off an inconspicuous weed by the roadside, and said.

"Everything in this world has its own way. I've only lived a few years longer than Miss Li and read a few more books."

"Live a few more years? Read a few more books?" Li Qingge secretly complained in his heart.

"This is more than just reading a few more books! It's like a walking encyclopedia!"

Along the way, Li Qingge was like a curious baby, constantly pestering Chen Yang with questions.

From the medicinal properties of exotic flowers and herbs to the legends of ancient mythical beasts, Chen Yang answered them one by one, demonstrating his profound knowledge.

"Mr. Chen, do you think there are really dragons in this world?" Li Qingge suddenly asked, a gleam of curiosity in her beautiful eyes.

Chen Yang pondered for a moment and said, "I dare not say whether dragons exist or not."

"However, I once read in an ancient book that dragons are the embodiment of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, possessing the power to destroy heaven and earth..."

Chen Yang recounted the descriptions of dragons from ancient books, leaving Li Qingge mesmerized and fascinated, as if she were really in that mythical world.

But she didn't notice that there was a hint of reminiscence in Chen Yang's eyes.

"Speaking of the Dragon Clan, it's been a while since I last visited them. After things here are resolved, I can go visit those old friends."

The two walked and talked, and before they knew it, they came to a quiet valley.

"Huh?" Chen Yang suddenly stopped and his eyes fell on a stone wall deep in the valley.

"What's wrong?" Li Qingge saw that Chen Yang had a strange expression, so he stopped and looked in the direction he was looking.

I saw that the stone wall was covered with vines and moss, and it looked no different from the surrounding environment.

"Something seems to be wrong there." Chen Yang frowned, his tone solemn.

"What's wrong? Isn't it just an ordinary stone wall?" Li Qingge was a little puzzled.

Chen Yang didn't say anything, but walked towards the stone wall.

"Mr. Chen, what are you going to do?" Li Qingge suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and hurriedly chased after him.

"If I'm not mistaken, there should be a cave hidden behind this stone wall."

Chen Yang walked to the stone wall, observed it carefully, and said in an affirmative tone.

"Cave?" Li Qingge was stunned.

"There are many dangerous places in the Xuanling Mountains. We'd better not take risks lightly."

Chen Yang shook his head and said, "There is a restriction at the entrance of this cave, and it is very old. It is definitely not done by ordinary people."

"If my guess is correct, there might be some treasure hidden in this cave."

Li Qingge's heart moved when she heard this. Although she came from a prominent family, she was only 28 years old.

I have also been listening to stories about the family members' adventures outside since I was a child. It can be said that I am full of curiosity and anticipation about this kind of adventure and treasure hunting.

"But, this restriction..." Li Qingge looked at the restriction on the stone wall with some worry. The restriction exuded a powerful aura that made her feel palpitations.

"Don't worry, although this restriction is powerful, it can't defeat me." Chen Yang smiled confidently, with a gleam in his eyes.

He stretched out his palm and gently pressed it on the stone wall.

Buzz!

An invisible wave spread out from his palm, instantly covering the entire stone wall.

The next moment, the restrictions on the stone wall began to tremble violently, as if it would collapse at any time.

Li Qingge watched the scene intently, his heart filled with tension and anticipation.

Finally, under Chen Yang's powerful strength, the restriction on the stone wall was shattered, revealing a pitch-black hole.

"Done!" Chen Yang withdrew his hand and a smile appeared on his face.

"Let's go in and take a look." He said, and walked into the cave first.

Li Qingge hesitated for a moment and followed.

The cave was pitch black, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you. A cold and damp smell hit you in the face.

Li Qingge felt a little uneasy and subconsciously moved closer to Chen Yang, asking in a low voice, "Master Chen, is there any danger here?"

Chen Yang smiled and said, "No problem, nothing else appeared in my perception."

As he spoke, he took out a night-shining pearl from his storage bag, and its soft light instantly illuminated the surrounding environment.

With the help of the light of the night pearl, Li Qingge was able to see the scene in the cave clearly.

The cave was not very big, but the walls were covered with dense runes, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

"What do these symbols mean..." Li Qingge looked at the runes on the wall, his heart full of doubts.

"These runes should be used to reinforce and hide the cave." Chen Yang explained, "It seems that the owner of this cave does not want people to find it easily."

"So what's in this cave?"

"And Master Chen, you actually know about formations?"

"How on earth did you learn all these things?"

Li Qingge asked curiously.

Chen Yang did not answer, but continued to walk deeper into the cave.

Not long after they walked, they arrived in front of a stone door.

This stone door, like the surrounding walls, is engraved with runes and exudes a powerful aura, obviously being restricted.

"It seems that this is the core of the cave." Chen Yang looked at the stone door in front of him, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

He stretched out his palm and gently pressed it on the stone door.

Buzz!

The runes on the stone gate lit up instantly, and a powerful force came from the stone gate, pushing Chen Yang back several steps.

"What a strong power!" Chen Yang steadied his body, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"Mr. Chen, are you okay?" Li Qingge saw this and hurried forward to ask.

"I'm fine." Chen Yang shook his head and said.

"The restriction on this stone door is stronger than I imagined. It seems that opening it will not be easy."

"What should we do then?" Li Qingge asked.

Chen Yang pondered for a moment and said, "It will take me some time to break this restriction."

As he spoke, he sat cross-legged on the ground and began to study the runes on the stone door.

Seeing this, Li Qingge didn't dare to disturb him and could only wait quietly by the side.

Chen Yang stared at the runes on the stone gate, frowning slightly.

These runes are exquisitely structured, exuding an ancient and vicissitudes of life. They are like sleeping ancient beasts, hiding a heart-pounding power.
