Lin Yixuan frowned and asked, "Fellow Daoist Fei Chen, why do you enter the underground labyrinth so many times? You should know that entering the underground labyrinth is a very dangerous thing. The underground labyrinth not only has many ancient powerhouses, but also many powerful demonic beasts. If you make a slight mistake, you may never be able to come back."
"I won't hide it from you, fellow Daoist. I want Dao Jade from the Underground Maze. Due to some personal reasons, I need a lot of Dao Jade. There is a lot of Dao Jade in the Underground Maze. I want to enter and exit the Underground Maze many times to collect enough Dao Jade."
Han Feng said, half-jokingly.
"So it was for Dao Yu."
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yixuan suggested, "You don't necessarily have to go down there to get Dao Jade. I have a compromise: have your fellow Daoists help you collect Dao Jade, and then you can exchange it for some other valuable items. What do you think?"
Han Feng shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that won't work. Even if you fellow Daoists are willing to help me collect Dao Jade, I don't have any items to exchange."
The amount of Dao Jade he needed for his life simulation was an incredibly terrifying number.
It's alright for Han Feng to collect some Dao Jade; it probably won't arouse suspicion from others.
However, the more Dao Jade items he collected, the more precious items he could exchange for them.
Han Feng has many precious materials, Dao artifacts, pills, etc., which can be exchanged for a large amount of Dao Jade.
Problems do exist.
His ability to produce so many valuable materials will surely attract the attention of some interested parties.
No one who survives in the Tianyuan tribe has an easy life.
Lin Yixuan and Hei Shui are among the few "simple" people; the others are all very cunning.
Han Feng didn't want to attract too much attention, so he definitely wouldn't agree to Lin Yixuan's suggestion.
Lin Yixuan agreed, saying, "That's true. If it's a large-scale exchange of Dao Jade, others may have enough Dao Jade, but Fellow Daoist Fei Chen may not be able to produce that many."
Han Feng smiled wryly and said, "Thank you for your understanding, Fellow Daoist Lin, but I don't have enough precious items to exchange for Dao Jade."
“Fellow Daoist, you have wanted to enter the underground labyrinth many times. It is not difficult to arrange. Many people are unwilling to go into the underground labyrinth. If you go, you will definitely be allowed. Some people are eager for more people to enter, because more people means more safety. There is a price for Yuan Tianshi to set up the underground labyrinth formation. Every once in a while, someone has to die in the underground labyrinth in order to suppress the monsters in the underground labyrinth.”
Lin Yixuan revealed a secret.
"I never imagined that the underground labyrinth held such a big secret."
Han Feng had no knowledge of the secrets hidden in the underground labyrinth from Huang Feichen's memories.
That's normal, I suppose.
As a prodigy from an ancient family in the Northern Region, Lin Yixuan knew far more than Huang Feichen, a commoner.
"This matter is not exactly a secret; many people know about it. When the Source Celestial Master communicates with heaven and earth and wants to set up a grand array of heaven and earth, he must pay a price. This price is that a Dao Heaven Realm expert dies every once in a while, so that the demonic beasts in the earth veins will not attack us."
Lin Yixuan explained in detail.
"So that's why the monsters in the ley lines are so docile, there's always a price to pay."
Han Feng nodded silently.
"So I want you to think this over carefully, fellow Daoist. The more times you enter the underground labyrinth, the higher the probability of death will be. You have already entered it many times."
Lin Yixuan advised again.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, there's no need to persuade me again. My mind is made up."
Han Feng's face showed determination.
Lin Yixuan sighed: "You have your own choice, so I won't try to persuade you anymore. I'll accept this artifact and I'll arrange things as soon as possible."
"Thank you, fellow Daoist."
Han Feng left Lin Yixuan's cave and returned to the palace, where he immediately received a telepathic message from Lin Yixuan.
Lin Yixuan told him to prepare for tomorrow and to enter the underground maze with a small team.
"Lin Yixuan is reliable; he can make arrangements for anyone."
Han Feng's impression of Lin Yixuan improved considerably.
There are several powerful members of the Lin family buried beneath the Tianyuan tribe, besides Lin Yixuan.
Lin Yixuan has someone backing him up, otherwise he wouldn't have become the team leader.
If we're talking about the strongest among the seven, it should be Huang Yating.
Blackwater, being a unique species from the Northern Region, is no weaker than Lin Yixuan.
Furthermore, Huang Yating had targeted Huang Feichen and Heishui, but she had never targeted Lin Yixuan.
It wasn't that Huang Yating's Puppet Dao was of little use to Lin Yixuan, but rather that she was wary of the power behind Lin Yixuan.
Han Feng made some preparations for entering the underground maze later.
...
The entrance to the underground labyrinth.
Seven people were already waiting here, three men and four women, all of whom were at least at the Dao Heaven Realm.
The leader was a burly man with leopard-like eyes, whose cultivation level was in the late stage of the Dao Heaven Realm. He was probably the strongest among the seven.
"Leopard King, all seven of us are here. Why haven't we opened the entrance to the underground labyrinth yet? Last time, Lin Yixuan's team found the Blood Demon Overlord and resolved the crisis in the underground labyrinth. Now, we need to find an ancient powerhouse and dig him out to enter the underground labyrinth."
A middle-aged woman with an ordinary face, a plump figure, and dressed in white spoke.
"Li Qing, don't rush. We're waiting for someone. He's going down with us."
Leopard Emperor's Path.
"We're not seven people anymore, why do we need to add one more? Has Master Yuan changed the team and is he going to increase it from seven to eight people?"
A short, dark-skinned old man named Chen Qinnong said this.
"If only it were like that, with seven people going down together, one of them might die by accident. Everyone has a one in seven chance. If the team size increases to eight people, the probability will be much lower."
Li Qing nodded.
While everyone was discussing, a figure was seen rushing towards them from a distance.
This person had a sallow complexion, was extremely tall, and had reached the mid-stage of the Dao Heaven Realm.
"This man is Huang Feichen."
Li Qing blurted it out.
"Li Qing, do you know this person?"
Chen Qinnong asked.
"Your information is a bit outdated. You don't even know this person? He is the famous Huang Feichen. It is said that Huang Yating was able to find the Blood Demon Lord thanks to this Huang Feichen. Otherwise, it would have been very difficult to find him. They both have the surname Huang. I even suspect that they are not siblings."
Li Qing embellished the story of how Huang Yating obtained her opportunity.
Anyway, she portrayed Huang Feichen as stupid and Huang Yating as incredibly lucky.
“Li Qing, I think it’s better if you don’t say certain things. This Fellow Daoist Huang has done something to provoke you, so it’s better if you don’t make enemies,” Chen Qinnong advised from the side.
“Chen Qinnong, just admit you’re a coward. I’m just telling the truth. I said the same thing when Huang Feichen came,” Li Qing said, completely unconcerned.
