Upon hearing Zhang Qidao's words, Chu Mo immediately became expectant.
"Where is that place? Is there anything special about it?"
Zhang Qidao organized his thoughts and then explained in detail:
"That place is on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and it's an underground space of nearly 100,000 square meters."
"Actually, the country organized a joint scientific expedition team a long time ago to explore it, but apart from knowing that there was such a huge underground space, they knew nothing else."
Chu Mo couldn't help but ask with slight doubt:
"I've heard about this event online. Isn't it said that it was just a space formed by the movement and compression of continental plates? Is there some mystery behind it?"
Zhang Qidao shook his head with a wry smile, a hint of fear flashing across his face:
"That's just what they say for publicity. In fact, the investigation had to be terminated because too many people died."
"When we first learned that there was such a huge underground space, we thought about creating a passage to go inside and take a look."
"But when the tunnel reached a depth of one thousand meters underground, it could not be dug any further."
"Could it be that we hit a layer of rock?" Chu Mo couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Qidao shook his head with a sigh:
"No, that's definitely not a rock. It looks more like a glass dome. The key is that it's incredibly hard, and it's impossible to get a single sample for testing."
"Then why did people die?" Chu Mo asked in surprise, his curiosity growing.
"All the dead died mysteriously after touching that glass-like stone, as if they were cursed."
"Actually, calling it a stone isn't quite accurate. It's a substance we've never seen before, and we named it: Kunlun Diamond Rock."
"That thing is infinitely harder than diamond."
Zhang Qidao glanced at Chu Mo with a worried expression, and solemnly said:
"At the time, this matter even alarmed a senior in the Golden Core stage, but after he went down into the passage, he never came back up."
"That place was too strange and dangerous, so the scientific expedition had to be stopped, and the passage that was half-built was permanently sealed off."
"So, the reason the country sent troops to guard the Kunlun Mountains is because of this passage?" Chu Mo asked in shock.
When he first heard the Human Emperor say that the origin of the Great Dao was hidden in the Kunlun Mountains, he thought it was related to that mysterious cave.
I never imagined that besides that place, there were such mysterious places in the Kunlun Mountains.
A vast space hidden underground, covering nearly 100,000 square kilometers?
It also possesses such terrifying protective measures that even Golden Core cultivators perished inside.
He would never believe there wasn't a secret involved.
If it were just an ordinary person who died, it could be said that it was due to poisoning by radioactive materials or chemical elements.
But a Golden Core cultivator is almost completely immune to these things.
Even extremely strong nuclear radiation could not have killed him like that.
What exactly is inside?
But whatever it was, Chu Mo decided to go and see for himself. However, he still had some doubts and couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Old Zhang, if you didn't think of that place before, why are you so sure now that it might be the place I'm looking for?"
Zhang Qidao's expression immediately became extremely solemn.
"Because just last night, the patrolling soldiers discovered that the previously sealed passage had been secretly opened."
"Outside the passage, there was a corpse. After comparing its appearance, it was confirmed to be one of the Cleaners who had appeared in Japan, a Nascent Soul stage cultivator!"
"What? A Daoist Purifier? A Nascent Soul cultivator?"
Chu Mo jumped up immediately; he was completely astonished this time.
A Nascent Soul cultivator was actually killed by that strange thing?
That's a Nascent Soul cultivator!! Not some nobody.
Reaching that level, it's practically impossible to die even if you want to, yet you inexplicably died in the Kunlun Mountains.
This moment.
He suddenly realized that his idea of going there himself was questionable.
Doesn't that seem a bit too risky?
Being unafraid of death and courting death are two different things. It seems I have to go back to Kunlun Realm.
Such a strange thing should be consulted with the First Elder and Second Master.
This "second master" was how he referred to Chu Hanqing in his heart.
As for Qin Potian, his true mentor, although his strength was astonishing.
But having spent his entire life in Lingyin Village, his knowledge and experience are probably no match for those elders in the Kunlun Realm.
After sharing his thoughts with Zhang Qidao, the latter finally felt relieved.
He was worried that Chu Mo was arrogant and might impulsively go to check on things.
If anything were to happen, he would become a sinner for all time in the Dragon Kingdom!
"Xiao Chu, you must prepare carefully and never be reckless. If you are not 100% sure, you absolutely cannot go!"
Zhang Qidao was still a little worried, so he couldn't help but give a few more instructions.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, I won't risk my life."
After Chu Mo made repeated assurances, he bid farewell to the other party and returned to the Qingcang Immortal Sect.
He was already quite certain that the origin of the Great Dao was likely hidden in the underground space.
But what exactly is beneath that passage?
Is it a curse?
The Qingcang Immortal Sect of today is completely different from what it used to be. The once magnificent but dilapidated sect has been completely renovated and is now full of the majestic and imposing presence of a major sect.
Not only the main peak, but also several nearby mountains that were originally abandoned have been put back into use to house disciples for cultivation and accommodation.
The Qingcang Immortal Sect, covering an area of dozens of miles, was bustling with activity and full of boundless vitality.
