Seeing this, Qu Feiyan was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized and said, "That's right! There must be Ming Cult people guarding the outside of this forbidden area on weekdays. In order to avoid being discovered, even after entering this secret passage, they dare not make too much noise. Even if they want to explore the hidden door, they can only feel their way in little by little."
"However, with the six major sects besieging Bright Peak and making such a big commotion, no one will pay attention to the situation inside the mountain."
Hearing Qu Feiyan's words, Xiao Zhao also realized what was going on, and her eyes sparkled with anticipation.
After the hundreds of sword energies dissipated, there was nothing unusual in the entire stone chamber.
Seeing this, Chu Qinghe said calmly, "Let's go!"
Upon hearing this, the two women followed closely behind Chu Qinghe, both of them being covered by the cloak.
After several attempts, when the three of them returned to the third dark room, under Chu Qinghe's dense sword energy, a stone brick on the wall suddenly dented slightly inward.
Then, from this dark room, a stone wall suddenly flipped open.
Seeing this, Chu Qinghe secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It should be noted that this secret passage contains not only hidden doors, but also some narrow passages.
If it were just a few walls in this enclosed room, it wouldn't be so bad.
If he were to venture into that narrow, secret passage, given the amount of true energy Chu Qinghe possessed, it would be quite a task to explore each passage individually.
Subsequently, following Chu Qinghe's thorough approach, the group explored their way into a new, dark room.
Upon entering this dark room, it was unlike any other empty dark room.
In the very center of this training stone chamber, there is a three-foot-high stone platform with a skeleton sitting cross-legged on it.
The skull was surrounded by a dense web of spider webs.
Looking at the skeleton, Qu Feiyan, who had entered the dark room, couldn't help but ask, "Why is there a skeleton here?"
The words had barely left his mouth when Chu Qinghe said lazily, "If there are no surprises, this is probably Yang Dingtian."
Upon hearing what Chu Qinghe said, both Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan looked surprised.
Qu Feiyan couldn't help but ask, "He's Yang Dingtian? How could he have died in the Ming Cult's secret passage?"
Chu Qinghe said irritably, "Nonsense, this is the Ming Cult's secret passage, and this guy is in such a posture, anyone with eyes can see that he has gone mad from practicing his skills."
Qu Feiyan turned to look at Yang Dingtian's remains and said, "I thought he was killed by other martial artists, but it turns out he died from a qi deviation in the Ming Cult's forbidden area. No wonder the Ming Cult didn't know."
At this moment, Xiao Zhao shifted her gaze, as if she had discovered something and exclaimed with delight, "Young Master, that might be the 'Great Shift of Heaven and Earth'!"
Upon hearing what Xiao Zhao said, Qu Feiyan looked up and saw that the skeleton Xiao Zhao was pointing to was actually sitting on a sheepskin scroll.
A few breaths later, as Xiao Zhao pulled the parchment from under the skull, Qu Feiyan examined it for a few moments and found that it was all shiny.
However, as Xiao Zhao took out a dagger, pricked her finger, and squeezed out a few drops of blood onto the parchment, patterns slowly appeared on the blood-stained parchment.
"What's this?"
Looking at the patterns on the parchment, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but turn her head to look at Xiao Zhao.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhao smiled and said, "This is written in Persian, and it records the mental techniques and cultivation methods of the 'Great Shift of Heaven and Earth'."
Upon learning that the scroll truly contained the Ming Cult's signature martial art, "The Great Shift of Heaven and Earth," Qu Feiyan couldn't help but examine it closely for a few more moments.
After glancing at the parchment scroll, Xiao Zhao handed it to Chu Qinghe. The scroll contained the mental techniques of the "Great Shift of Heaven and Earth".
"Young master, you should keep it!"
Chu Qinghe didn't care about what Xiao Zhao said. He folded the item and put it into his pocket before tossing it into his system inventory.
Perhaps because her biological father's last wish was about to be fulfilled, Xiao Zhao's smile never faded as she returned along the way.
As the three emerged from the forbidden area, hundreds of corpses lay scattered outside.
They may be disciples of the Ming Cult, or disciples of the Kunlun and Kongtong sects.
The body was left exposed to the midday sun, the pungent smell of blood filling the air.
Beside these corpses, several people were groping the bodies, and some were even tying up the weapons in the hands of the corpses.
As Chu Qinghe emerged from the forbidden area and saw the group of people looting the corpse, the dozen or so people outside also saw Chu Qinghe and his companions slowly walking out.
After a brief exchange of glances, the martial artists who were originally looting the corpses looked at the stone with the words "Forbidden Area" written in blood red next to Chu Qinghe and his companions, and then at the Ming Cult's forbidden area passage behind Chu Qinghe. Their eyes then fell on Xiao Zhao, who was carrying a bundle on her back.
A few breaths later, the martial artists exchanged glances and simultaneously used their lightness skills to raise their weapons and charge at Chu Qinghe.
Clearly, seeing the package on Xiao Zhao's back, these people assumed it contained the valuable items that Chu Qinghe and his companions had obtained from the Ming Cult's forbidden area.
Faced with the actions of these martial artists, Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan frowned slightly and together used their internal energy to move towards them.
When they sensed the fluctuations of first-class perfect internal energy emanating from Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan, the expressions of these greedy martial artists changed drastically.
